Bluebeard
The Bluebeard of the Forbidden Room
Just don't open this one room. ...You opened it, didn't you?
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
A lord who leaves behind the warning, whatever you do, don't open the room to this key. But forbid a thing and people open it anyway, and so in time he became the very curse of the notification you must not open. The bloody key at his hip swings open the door to whatever problem the beholder has been pretending not to see. He no longer kills anyone; he's just a nagging old man who grumbles endlessly, but I told you not to open it. His one incurable habit is proposing marriage, and Shirayuki has turned him down three times.
Relationships with other curses
He pines for Shirayuki, three rejections and counting. He is the polar opposite of the zero-notification hermit Bocchizero and his messages that never come, yet secretly he envies him.
How to deal with this curse
Bluebeard embodies the everyday frustration of "fairy tales." Bottled-up feelings only grow heavier. The moment you feel it, give it a name and write it out — that is the quickest way to make it lighter. Noroi Nikki is a completely private place to do exactly that.
