Kaya-chan Isn’t Scary - Vol. 6 Ch. 39 - Auntie Nana is not scary

[sssr]

I'm so confused. So each first daughter of the lineage is a priestess? Like Nana's mom is a first born and Mitsu's mom would also be firstborn. Or can any daughter be a priestess? Isn't Nana the second daughter, so the power went to her instead of Mirai which may have earned her special treatment? But I guess if it's a ritual, you can technically do it with any daughter, regardless of whether they're firstborn or not, just like murai did to current pregnancy.

Nana is Mirai's elder sister. This is already explained in Chapter 18 page 2.

The daughters born through the cursed womb are PHYSICAL clones of the first priestess but aren't actually her. As such they share her powers but not her soul. Since they all inherited her powers it's actually safe for THEM to use the cursed womb spell since their power can mitigate the risk. The implication here is that because Mirai cheated and used the cursed womb on herself while not having any powers, she invited the first priestess into her firstborn daughter. This was somewhat OK since it just gave Kaya a second superpowered personality that's technically still a protector being - an angry one, sure, but she still protects. The problem is that Mirai then used the cursed womb spell a second time, which allowed other things (not the original priestess since she's already in Kaya) to enter her.

Spoiler: Theory:

The misfortune charms aren't just MacGuffins to move the plot forward. They are also foreshadowing. Kaya's mom is using a variation that causes the spirits that Kaya "exorcises" to be channeled to herself. Hence the powerful amalgamation at the end.

Thanks! Who is mutsu again? I hope kaya gets a happy ending but you'd think there'd be other psychic families in each town just to cleanse/exorcise the ghosts versus just letting there be more victims but guess you can't save everyone


I got a 'mangadex under maintenance' earlier so maybe some pages will still be slow loading now

Mutsu is the grandma's name. Every priestesses are named after a number. Grandma Mutsu is, Auntie Nana is seven, while Kaya is eight.

Instakilled, damn. So Kaya's mother is trying to "make" another pyschic but probably screwed up somehow and is instead pulling a Dark Gathering, it seems.

What likely happened was that for all the previous priestesses, Kaya included, they got their power (and soul) by pulling/copying the original pritestess's power (and soul). So if Kaya is already in possess of the power and soul, then what did Kaya's mom pulling this time for her second born?

Based on what was shown, definitely something much worse.
