[Mainly Jujutsu Kaisen] I Put a Price on Your Death

Jinguji Ayako is a monster.

A curse from Kamō Genkan as he lay dying granted her eternal life and youth, at the price of everyone she loved leaving her. Just what she wanted.

She gambles with human hearts and plays with fate. With her innate art of "Fate Compensation," she weighs, transfers, and trades calamities, illness, and even death as if they were merchandise.

Until she met Fushiguro Toji.

The Heavenly Tyrant, who put a price tag on everything, including his own life, used his absolute, transcendent power to crudely shatter her exquisite, tedious world.

She began paying his "bills" with priceless cursed objects and looking for "substitutes" for his mortal wounds.

She told herself it was merely an investment in and collection of a fascinating new toy.

Until the day "Hollow Purple," powerful enough to erase him, came crashing down.

With a smile, Ayako snapped her fingers and passed his fate of "instant death" to a family heirloom gem. The gem crumbled to dust, and he staggered to his feet.

He thought he was just lucky.

He had no idea that, time and time again, she had signed astronomical bills for him in front of the Grim Reaper of Fate.

"You ask why I saved you?"

"Because your death is the one price I still can't afford..."
