My Curse? A Different Yandere in Every Reincarnation
Chapter 73: Yandere Factor Hypothesis

Chapter 73: Yandere Factor Hypothesis

"I want to know about death, can this book of yours help me with that?" I question Guilherme.

"About death? Interesting topic, and yes there’s an entire Chapter on it, but first I should explain a bit about this cultural studies book to you."

"Stop calling me that, at least call me Shizune." I don’t like him calling me that.

"Okay then, Shizune, let’s start talking about the book, shall we? Isn’t it beautiful?" He says while showing the book up close.

"..." It’s actually quite ugly and the dust makes it hard to see what’s supposedly the book cover.

"This book was one of the greatest historical finds of our time, it’s from a newly discovered civilization on an island in the South Pacific, right now about 69% of everything about this people has been uncovered."

"Since they were isolated and a primitive people, it was easy to find a lot of them after discovering the first traces of their existence, and their language, while a bit complex, was relatively simple compared to the languages of other civilizations."

"Nowadays, we know almost the entire alphabet of this people, and with their discovery, we found out several things like the recipe for Damascus Steel and flexible glass, two very useful things in the present day."

"There was also a large amount of recipes, whether for food, rudimentary weapons, or even the refining of certain ores in a very ingenious way! Do you realize that a people from 10,000 years ago did this?"

"It’s simply incredible! But I’m not a historian, the real biggest find is this book, this ancient people believed in magic, multiple gods, and believed that at the time of death they would be guided by a herald to the realm of death where they would rest in peace."

"This book teaches various rituals, as well as knowledge about this, although a large part of the rituals are strange, so for most historians this book is simply a cultural artifact."

’Stop rambling!’ I want to yell at him to stop rambling and stop talking so loudly, but I restrain myself.

"So could you explain more about death itself?" I ask him to focus more on what I really want to know.

"Okay, death, huh...this subject is a bit complex, this people believed some strange things about death itself."

"First, death is worshipped as a superior deity above all others, so far so good, many cultures believe that various unknown concepts are gods or something similar."

"However, this people believed that it was possible to manifest death directly by making an appropriate sacrifice while calling the real name of death, by performing a sacrifice ritual, it was possible to make this summoning prayer."

"It is said that every living being can summon death and death can respond to this, but this ancient people said that if you perform the ritual without knowing the real name of death, all you will do is summon a herald."

"..."

’Sayuri...call Sayuri?...Why didn’t I think of that, it might work...I don’t mind begging for forgiveness’ I’ve been so humiliated that begging to be forgiven is little if it’s to get rid of this curse.

"How does this ritual work?"

"It’s actually quite simple, first, according to the book, as a first step, you need to have had some contact with death in some form, I think they mean perhaps experiencing the sensation of dying, maybe in accidents? I’m not sure."

"And the second thing is to cause an enormous number of deaths in the name of death using her true name as a catalyst to send souls directly to her so that her presence is requested."

’Ah...killing a lot...I don’t think I can do that, I don’t have the courage...’ maybe in a world where my morals are garbage, but my current self would never have the courage to kill.

"Is there anything else about death written in there?"

"There is, but nothing too interesting, in general the most interesting things are rituals, of course there’s also a kind of inevitability prophecy."

"It’s related to death and the end of all existing things, and the fact that this is inevitable after all, everything will die someday, so the ancients foresaw that one day all life would be extinguished, but this is something we know today."

’So that wasn’t it...’ Killing people in the name of Sayuri to summon her, that’s all I got from this encounter.

"..."

"I see you’ve lost interest...what a pity, I guess this is goodbye then."

"Are you leaving already?" I question with doubt.

"Yes, I only came here because I heard you wanted to know something about the occult, but now your interest seems to have waned." He extends his hand for me to shake.

"Ah yes, you’re disabled." He holds my hand and shakes it a little to simulate a handshake.

"..."

"!!!"

"Shit!! Sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you!!" Guilherme speaks a little startled when my arm falls to the ground.

"..."

"Is... fake? Phew...I thought Ryuuji would kill me for taking his wife’s arm." Guilherme says as I look at the ground where my arm is.

"Oh I see, he uses something like a magnet to attach it, so I guess it was my fault, sorry about that, the ring on my finger disables the magnetism of things I come into direct contact with." Guilherme apologizes while holding the arm.

He examines it for a moment.

"..."

"Is there a problem, Guilherme?" I question since he’s staring at my arm intently, honestly it’s uncomfortable and I want him to return it to where it belongs as soon as possible.

"Ah no, there’s nothing...it’s just that I like dolls because they remind me of my mother, it also reminds me of my dolls, but even though I tried to make a good one, it didn’t work out."

"They always die in the manufacturing process, I guess I just don’t have talent in general medicine...are your legs like this too? They were very well made."

"...!!!"

"R-Ryuuji, the meeting is over, where are you?" I call out loudly, calling Ryuuji over to get me away from this lunatic, he just said he turns people into dolls, it’s disturbing.

"Dolls...come to think of it, you remind me of a doll, you’re pretty, you don’t talk much, and best of all, you have removable parts for customization, like a good and practical doll to take care of."

"R-Ryuuji!? Where are you, the meeting is over and I think I need to eat something." I say nervously, where’s that damn psychopath to get me away from the psychopath in front of me.

"..." Guilherme stares at the connection of the thighs with the legs, his fixation on this is terrifying, making me sweat cold.

"RYUUJI!"

"No need to yell, dear, I’m here, I took a little longer because I was adjusting a camera...is there a problem?" Ryuuji touches my shoulder when I scream his name nervously because Guilherme’s focus, which was previously more on my face and chest, has now completely shifted to my legs and arms.

"A-Ah yes, s-sorry for yelling, h-haha, I’m just tired."

"..." Ryuuji notices my discomfort.

"Guilherme, return my wife’s arm."

"..." Guilherme stares at Ryuuji.

"...Sure, my bad there buddy, no need to keep your hand on that gun cocked on your back, here’s her arm, you did a magnificent job, it’s like a good doll."

"She’s not a doll." Ryuuji cuts him off angrily.

"I never said she was."

The atmosphere becomes extremely heavy, Guilherme slowly places my arm on the sofa and then goes to grab his bag to put the book away.

"..."

"You know, friend, I take back my previous words, it’s not a shame that you have a disabled wife, in fact, that gives her a certain charm...oops, easy there, buddy, I didn’t mean to insult your little doll."

"Get out of here before I put you to sleep with the fishes." Ryuuji threatens Guilherme directly with the gun pointed blatantly.

"Okay, okay, I’ll give you a 20% discount on the payment then, I’ll return part of what you paid, your wife is pretty cool, you should take care of her so more accidents don’t happen." Guilherme says with a malicious smile as he leaves with the bag.

Ryuuji never stops aiming at him until he’s out of the house.

"R-Ryuuji, why didn’t you shoot?" I may be wrong to wish he would shoot someone, but Guilherme is too scary for me to care.

"Tsk...you were right, dear, he really will be a problem, but his guarantee caught me off guard, a bomb was hidden in his suit."

"W-What! W-Was he going to explode himself?"

"Yes...I figured something like that, but I never thought he’d get weird with you, so his guarantee wasn’t taken seriously..."

"You know, I’ve never seen him have any interest in anything other than the occult, so I didn’t consider the possibility that he might be interested in you and your arms and legs."

"W-Why did he act that way!! It doesn’t make sense."

"He has some kind of fetish with things that remind him of his mother, his mother was killed by his father and he killed his father in revenge, so he ended up developing a hobby related to things like dolls, children’s games, and children’s books."

"I never thought he’d go so far as to consider you a doll, I know he’s kidnapped girls before, but he’s always said he failed in the process of keeping them alive while messing with their arms and legs."

"Since he doesn’t have medical knowledge, it’s natural that they all died."

"But you’re my wife, and he knows that, so I didn’t take it so seriously...you knew about this, didn’t you? Why did you say he would be a problem?"

"W-Well, strange people are always drawn to my life..."

"...That’s not an answer, but I’ll accept it for now, he’ll probably come after you, I’ve never seen him so fixated on someone before, he’s usually annoyingly relaxed without a shred of seriousness."

"I’ve only seen him that serious before when someone insulted his occult hobby."

’Must be the Yandere factor...at least Ryuuji is smart and is already alert.’

"Ryuuji, you won’t let Guilherme get me, will you?"

"..."

"I’ll be honest, Guilherme is a troublesome guy to deal with, if he can’t aim for you, he’ll aim for our son."

"W-Why do you know someone like that!"

"He supplied me with useful things, since he has deep ties to the black market, it’s easier to get things from him without having to reveal myself, in the world of assassination, only Guilherme knows my identity."

’They have no filter talking to me about such heavy things...’ I’m being dragged into very dark waters.

"Dear, I think I’ll have to take you to a hidden location until I can eliminate Guilherme."

"..." Ryuuji handles the arm on the sofa and crushes something from it.

"A tracker...he really will come after you, I never thought he’d be the type to be a stalker."

’It’s my fault...but it’s interesting...’ I didn’t know the Yandere Factor could affect someone so quickly, but this makes a hypothesis form.

Maybe the Yandere Factor uses people’s desires to awaken negative tendencies.

"Ryuuji...what do you like?" If he talks about family and control, my hypothesis might be more or less correct.

"...?"

"Ryuuji, what have you always wanted? If Guilherme always wanted something that reminds him of his mother, what do you want?"

"Do you think we’re going to die, so you want to share desires? I guess...to disconnect from my rigid family and form my own as I want."

’He asks me to be a [Good wife], so maybe depending on what each Yandere desires, the chance of him killing me decreases...’

"I understand...I don’t want to die yet, so you need to protect me and protect our son, if you die, know that I won’t follow you to hell."

"What cold words, dear, but don’t worry, I’ll find a way."

’I hope so...I-I really don’t want to die...’ With each world, I’m changing in an irreversible way, so the more worlds I advance, the worse it will be for me.
