Why Does My Beloved Wife Keep Dying?

[Synopsis saved as a draft for now. Some details may change, and it will be edited again when the story begins.]

Perhaps it was heaven's punishment: you transmigrated to Heian-kyo, and while recovering from your injuries, you married Muzan a total of five times.

Of course, you also died five times.

On your first run, your many serious injuries left your heartbeat erratic, and Muzan's shouting scared you to death on the spot.

* Fortunately, you received a generous assortment of grave goods.

On your second run, you disguised yourself as a county magistrate's daughter. You were so frail that you exhausted yourself to death during an outing with Muzan.

* Fortunately, you received a generous assortment of grave goods.

On your third run, forbidden to leave the house, you suddenly felt like climbing a tree. You slipped and fell to your death.

* Fortunately, you received a generous assortment of grave goods.

On your fourth run, curious about what Muzan's medicine tasted like, you took a tiny sip and were poisoned to death.

* Fortunately, you received a generous assortment of grave goods.

On your fifth run, Muzan left you to your own devices, and, as expected, you died.

In short, you received a generous assortment of grave goods.

On your sixth run, finally recovered, you decided to get away from Muzan, that walking jinx. In the middle of the night, you dug up five graves and made off with your grave goods.

*

You lived in extravagant comfort on your ex-husband's gifts.

That is, until a thousand years later, when you had spent all your money and were wondering whether to find some sucker to replenish your wallet.

Then you ran into Muzan.

He was not only still alive and kicking, but had even turned into a woman, stunningly beautiful.

You: ...

How did I never notice that he had this kind of kink?

You also hadn't expected his temper to have gotten even worse after a thousand years. He grabbed you by the throat as soon as he saw you, his voice trembling with anger as he demanded to know how you were still alive.

You: ... (looking at him affectionately) Of course I came back because I couldn't bear to be without you, darling :)
