Subaru returns to the mansion determined to rebuild trust rather than treat its residents as pieces in a puzzle. He becomes a servant again, works relentlessly, and asks Puck to evaluate his magical potential. Puck identifies Subaru’s affinity as shadow magic and teaches him Shamac, a spell that disrupts an opponent’s senses. Beatrice explains the legend of Satella and confirms that the Witch’s lingering scent clings strongly to Subaru, helping him understand Rem’s suspicion. He forces himself to remain cheerful while repeating chores, lessons, and conversations, but the emotional burden of multiple deaths and secret memories becomes unbearable. Emilia notices his exhaustion and gives him a quiet place to cry in her lap, allowing him to admit fear without revealing Return by Death. The release restores his ability to think. Remembering Beatrice’s explanation that curses require physical contact before activation, Subaru realizes the attacker likely touched him during the village trip. His deaths were not caused by a mansion resident. With renewed confidence, he arranges for Ram and Rem to accompany him to Arlam Village, intending to identify the curse’s source before anyone is killed.
