A Family of Yandere Witches Living in Modern Day Won’t Let Me Go - Chapter 1

A normal high school student—Touya Saegusa—has been having a strange dream lately.

It is the memory of someone else… but there is something that makes him think it might be his own dream.

(Ah… this dream again today.)

Since he has had the same dream many times, he recognizes it as a dream.

In the dream, Touya finds himself surrounded by two beautiful women. Just hearing that might make one think it’s some kind of harem scenario, but it’s not something pleasant.

“Touya…”

“Dad…!”

The reason is that both women are crying.

To his left is a stunning woman with black hair, exuding an alluring aura. She wears loose clothing, but her body lines are completely visible.

To his right is another woman, similar to the first but with a hint of youth… perhaps she is a high school student? She also boasts an incredible figure, the kind that any man would definitely look at more than once.

(I…)

And Touya, sandwiched between these women, is unable to move.

He understands he is lying on a bed, but that’s all… He seems to be struggling with some illness, as he is breathing heavily.

“Aria… Sena…”

The woman on the left is named Aria, and the one on the right is Sena.

The voices that are barely audible seem to be Touya’s own… so much so that he feels like they are part of him.

(Really… what is this dream about?)

At least, Touya doesn’t have any acquaintances who are as alluring and mysterious as these women.

Although it seems like there might be some connection since one of the women called his name, it remains a mystery why the other one called him “Dad.”

(I’m still in high school…)

Thus, Touya wakes up from this dream again today.

After seeing the same dream so many times, the faces of the women are burned into his mind… What could this mean?

“Touya… when you are reincarnated, I will definitely find you.”

“Wait for me, Dad—I’ll definitely find you with Mom.”

▼▽

“…Hmm”

“What’s wrong, Touya?”

“Well…”

As he groaned, his friend spoke up, noticing his strange behavior.

“You’ve been making a troubled face lately.”

“…”

Sitting in front of him was Manabe Sho, a classmate he had become friends with since high school. He was a flashy guy, a bit on the wild side.

His appearance often flirts with breaking school rules, and even Touya, who is close to him, is occasionally suspected of being a delinquent like Sho. Although it’s a hassle, he is a good person at heart.

“Anyway… let me tell you something.”

“Sure.”

“I keep having this dream every night.”

“A dream?”

Touya nodded and explained the details of his dream.

In the dream, he is looked down upon by two incredibly beautiful women, both of whom are crying sadly.

He told Sho about how they called his name and even referred to him as “Dad,” which made him feel embarrassed.

“What kind of dream is that?”

“I don’t know.”

“Do you have any kids?”

“Of course not.”

“If you did, it would be a big problem.”

“Yeah.”

Sho seriously pondered the situation, crossing his arms.

Touya didn’t think it was necessary to tell anyone, but seeing the same dream repeatedly felt a bit… eerie.

“Could it be related to your past life?”

“…Past life?”

Looking at Sho as if to say, “Explain that,” Sho continued.

“Listen to me half-heartedly, okay? The names called in the dream might belong to your wife and daughter. The one who called you ‘Dad’ could be your daughter.”

“Wait, so the person named Aria is my wife, and Sena is my daughter?”

“…Hmm.”

Let’s think about it.

A seductive beauty as my wife? And a similar-looking woman as my daughter…?

Come on, what kind of good deeds would make that possible?

“Well, it’s unlikely.”

“Yeah.”

First of all, Touya didn’t think he was the kind of guy who would be noticed by such beautiful women.

Even if it were true, and if his past self was an exceptionally handsome man, it would be a different story… but no, the dream Touya saw had him looking almost the same as he does now.

They laughed together at the impossibility of it all.

“By the way, have you heard?”

“Heard what?”

“There’s a rumor that a transfer student is coming today.”

“A transfer student? At this time?”

Touya was surprised by the mention of a transfer student, as it was the middle of June, the season for changing clothes.

It might not be unusual for a transfer student to arrive at this time, but it was always a rare event no matter the school.

“Rumor has it that she’s an incredibly beautiful girl.”

“…Really?”

As a guy, Touya was interested in the mention of a stunning beauty.

“Let’s see what she looks like!”

“Why the attitude?”

“It’s fine. I’m pretty popular myself.”

“Well, I guess that’s true.”

Touya remembered that Sho was indeed quite popular.

Time passed, and the morning assembly began—Homeroom teacher Yanagida was Showing off his muscular physique to the students again.

“Today, I will introduce a new member to everyone.”

Oh…?

The teacher’s words excited the whole class… It seemed the rumor about the transfer student was true.

“Come in.”

“Yes.”

A girl slowly walked in as the teacher called her. …Huh?

“She’s amazing… Isn’t she too beautiful?”

“Her figure is incredible!”

“Is she an idol or something?”

The girl who appeared captivated the classmates instantly.

…No, I was the same way――but at that moment, as soon as I saw her, I had a vision of something else.

“!?”

What flashed in my mind was that dream… rather, it was too similar.

The appearance of the girl in front of me resembled too closely the two women from my dream.

“From today, I will be spending time with everyone――I’m Ria Saionji. Nice to meet you!”

Her amber-colored hair in two side-up styles swayed, and she exuded a mature, alluring presence that wasn’t typical for a high school student.

Her well-defined features aside, the large chest that swayed gently when she bowed, the thick thighs peeking out from her skirt… If I only said that, it might seem like I was looking at her with improper thoughts.

But that’s not it… Everything except for her hair color is very similar to the women from that dream.

“Originally, Ms. Saionji lived in this city and recently returned due to family circumstances. As a transfer student, let’s be careful not to bombard her with questions and aim for a modest response.”

“Thank you, teacher.”

“No need for thanks. As for the seat… Well, it’s already prepared, so please sit there.”

A seat… prepared? Huh?

Suddenly, noticing something odd, I looked next to me… and saw that an empty seat had appeared there.

That seat Should have been occupied by the unremarkable Taro Yamada… but he’s moved diagonally behind!?

(…Huh?)

What’s going on… Did I miss something?

As I wondered, she, Ms. Saionji, slowly approached the designated seat and pulled out the chair.

Then, she looked over at me, smiling brightly.

“Nice to meet you, Miwa-kun.”

“Eh? Ah, yeah… huh?”

Huh… why does she know my last name…?

“??”

Could it be… have we met somewhere before?

Is this one of those classic romantic comedy patterns? Is this the beginning of a love story!?

“…Ah.”

I apologize, I got carried away by the presence of the beautiful transfer student sitting next to me.

(The more I look, the more she looks like them.)

As I glanced at Ms. Saionji’s profile, trying not to be noticed, the women from my dream vividly resurfaced in my mind.

For a while, I struggled to understand what this was… but eventually, it no longer bothered me. Instead, it became annoying as people who wanted to befriend the transfer student gathered around, causing disturbances.

But this was the beginning of it all.

I was trapped in the fate of being completely immersed in the swamp of love, not just with one foot, but both feet.

“Hey, hey, do you know the legend of the witch?”

“Yes, I know. It’s the story about a witch in this city, right?”

“But she’s not a bad witch. She became kind because she had someone very important to her.”

“That’s right! But… that person died, didn’t they?”

“Yeah… and after that, no one has seen the witch.”

“But it’s just a legend, right?”

“Of course! There’s no such thing as a witch! This isn’t a world of anime or manga!”
