I think the narrative in and of itself implies that. She's an unreliable narrator that's repeatedly brainwashing herself and the story we're seeing isn't even the first time it happened. Maybe the first Shien-related incident. Look where she's staying, some noble is clearly taking advantage of her power. There's some heinous cost associated with it that makes her disassociate (Midas' touch, her pipe is gold even).

i need more pipe lore. maybe the single cast piece thing doesn't apply to europooran pipes.
i was confused by the lighting mechanism at first, but no duh you can't light it with a match.

This is definitely a nitpick so I apologize in advance, but is there a reason mind was chosen as a translation of 心 here?
Maybe it's just me but it feels kinda weird to read "another me within my mind" for some reason instead of heart or even "another me within myself" if you want to avoid using heart.
>>
>>
Another me within my heart sounds more odd to me. How would you comprehend that image? It's not a common abstraction of heart to be invoked in people's minds, not the immediately correct one anyway. If the reader knows the nuance of 心 and see the original text, it's inferable, but that's not the convenience the translation will have and it's an extra unnecessary layer of abstraction, even though a common one in slightly similar contexts, that doesn't really bring any positive.
Mind just connects well with everything else we have here, consciousness, coping about split persona, a literal projection of a broken, empty face (head), and it's immediately obvious to the reader for them to make the connection for their comprehension.
Within myself is too vague a wording that can be misinterpreted as well. If something is transliteral already and works, just use it.

>>287478325
>>287478900
Maybe I'm just a huge dumbass talking out of my ass, but to me, I think mind reads as the conscious part of oneself and heart reads as subconscious, and in this situation, it feels like she's of sound mind but her subconscious desire/love for Shien is what's causing issues, not a separate split conscious will inside of her mind.
I know 心 doesn't always translate to heart, and I can understand your arguments for why in this situation mind works, but I just wanted to at least throw my opinion out there even if I'm probably wrong.And hey at least it keeps the thread bumped.

Rea's being really cute. Cuter than I thought she'd be.
>>287472963
The edges of her irises are being removed? Is it a mark of a sinner kinda thing? Like maybe she made a deal to never use her powers for herself, and now that she explicitly has, the lining in her irises get removed?

My theory: She lives as a noble, and to continue giving to the community without suspicion she needs to keep up the appearance, thus it falls under giving just enough money to pay for the house and clothes.
That makes breaking under pressure because she made one extra trinket hit a lot harder, in my mind.

Is it? I know it's magical smoke she can blow sometimes, but the cigarette might be "normal". Take Rea's pipe in this chapter for example. It's normal smoking material (to our knowledge), but she still made magical gold smoke from it with her powers. Likewise, what Shien smokes may not be her magic in itself. She could just be using real nicotine (or some other drug or even magical herb) for relief, while still only using her own magic when she does those special puffs/blows to cast the spell.

>Nothing happened to the point I can't live without smoking these things
Or something to that effect

>>287500959
The whole point of their shop is to make special cigarettes for different spells, no different from how she was asking for specific materials to throw in her cauldron last chapter.

Mode, as expected. Expecting vol 3 to be Rea, and vol 4 to be picrel.
Didn't expect Mode to have those colors though. It also looks like the border trails off to the back page, like in vol 1.

>Isn't her constant smoking part of putting a spell on herself?
In terms of using her magic, not that we know of. It seems possible she's mostly smoking regular cigarettes. I don't think we have any confirmation that she ever used her magic only for herself (in a non-self defense way).
