C³ - Cubed, Cursed & Curious, vol.2

Résumé

Haruaki tells her that she is going to be transferred to his school together with Konoha, much to Konoha's disdain. Fear's appearance immediately starts an uproar in the school because of her adorable appearance and child-like attitude. After letting the entire class in on the fact she knows Haruaki, he gets questioned as to the relationship between the two. Fear, on the other hand, deals with several clubs trying to pressure her into joining them. After school ends, Fear reflects on the hectic first day, and along with Haruaki and Konoha, decides to take a detour to a lookout point by the ocean. A happy moment there turns dangerous when they are attacked by Peavey Barowoi, a sadistic woman from an organization dedicated to exterminating Cursed Tools (The Knights of the Battlefront), specifically Fear, whose full name is revealed to be Fear-In-Cube. Peavey reveals Fear's dark past as a Cursed Tool created during the Height of the Inquisitions, and her participation in it as a torture device with 32 methods of making people suffer. As the two battle, Peavey's weapon arm is ripped off, causing her to bleed, and Fear to regain her former sadistic demeanor.
