ough, she obviously wouldn't need her magic to stay with them but, it should be her own choice as to whether or not she remembers her full past... bracing for the backstory chapters when they hit.......

thanks for the chapter!

There are some things that are better off forgotten

 

[beThereShortly]

I'm ready to have my heart broken by the flashbacks, bring it on!

 

[Prismatic-chan]

i am so torn .. and i understand why she is torn, too!
this manga continues to be wonderful.

There are some things that are better off forgotten

Problem is, she overheard and now knows just enough that it will only raise more questions going forward.

I can only speak for myself and who I am as a person--but eavesdropping that tidbit only to be told "no you can't remember" would drive me insane with the weight of that unknown. I would catastrophize to the point of ruin in Rea's position, so I empathize with her need for illumination into her past, whatever horrors may lurk therein.

"Better the devil you know", in a sense.

Shie had hearth between all this smoke

 

[mrboxeater]

wuts wit all the sideeyeing, did she know she was going to smoke the meds anyway?

 

[Mangamoz]

Going by how they treated witches in the past, I'm gonna guess that she may have killed in self-defense in some sort of witch trial.

 

[gemz9123]

No no no no, I'm not ready yet. Let the mundane slice of life extend a bit more.

Rea is very conflicted here. She wanted to remember more, but Shien is intentionally leaving information and the medicine out, and wanted to leave her as pure as she is, and Rea loves Shien, so she really doesn’t want to defy her intentions just to sneakpeek into those memories.

However, on the other hand, she also want to contribute to the other witches as the first family she’s had in a long time (It shows during her introspection seeing the welcoming party built just for her, plus her incredibly skilled origami technique and drawing skills) and more importantly, she wants to belong somewhere (preferably aside Shien, of course) and remain here with them.

She believes all she needs is to gain her magical powers back to be useful and valued again. And to do that, she needs to figure out the origin of her memories and who she was through that cigarette medicine, without Shien’s filters this time.

This is very exciting. I’m very eager to see how will her conflicts grow and what will eventually prompt her to smoke the cigarette and settle this once and for all, plus how will she react if she recovered her traumas but not her powers at all (which is what I suspect to happen because her powers are kinda op to be kept around, not to mention all her hard-earned money would be practically worthless if she does).

Thanks for the translation and looking forward to the next chapter!

[BossDrk]

Oh no...

 

[MelonManic]

Ya know what they say
Ignorance is bliss
I just know she's gonna traumatize herself when curiosity gets the best of her

Ye
We shall learn SOON

 

[dudelookatree]

ok but they could "just" erase her memories again
