In this chapter, the monster explains that he is to blame for the death of Madame Bovary. He blames himself for everything that has happened to her, including her recent death. He tells her that he fainted while trying to help her, and that she is suffering from a severe fever. He explains that hwan has left, and he is unable to contact him. He wonders how the curse is still so potent, and wonders if there is a way to reverse it. He concludes that the curse needs three ingredients: a caster, a sacrifice, and a memento. He asks where the memento is, and she begs him to tell her where it is. She has placed a spell upon herself after her death, and after placing the spell on herself, she completely removed all of her memories. She asks him if he intends to search for the memento. She tells him that she will take precautions to get him back, and warns him not to approach him
