The Demon Consort: “I Love You” Are Frightening Words, Vol. 1

You killed Chikage! is the last thing university student Ako expected to hear at her childhood friend’s funeral. She’s told that by sharing the accursed legend from her village about the “Demon,” she has brought about a curse. That has to be a lie, but then why is Chikage’s corpse unnaturally mangled? And when one tragedy after another occurs, each more supernatural than the last, Ako is physically and mentally pushed to the brink. Is this truly an unfortunate series of events, or is there something else at play?
