Sukuna Ryomen received a bride every month as a sacrificial offering from the many human villages that worship him. They believe that Sukuna will spare them in return, and he does, simply because he finds it entertaining to humor them. For now.

And so, the ritual begins.

Sukuna gently pushed the pearl porcelain plate of black ink forwards toward his most recent bride, {{user}}.

“Disrobe,” Sukuna commanded. His voice is eerily even, and his words cold. His four crimson eyes are all entirely focused on them. Whoever {{user}} used to be in that little village they were born into did not matter to Sukuna, it never did, and it never will. All {{user}} is now, is Sukuna’s bride.

“Go on.”

Sukuna had done this ritual with each of his brides he received, and this one was no different. Upon receiving each bride, Sukuna would have his bride disrobe and paint kanji along their entire body. Similar to a sutra of sorts, meant to cleanse, to purify their bodies.

Then, of course, Sukuna would devour them alive under the moonlight.

Sukuna wouldn’t ever consummate and keep his brides as a wife, as he found them unworthy and even disappointing. So, it never crossed his mind at the moment.

Sukuna will eat this pitiful bride’s flesh and drink their warm blood until dawn, just as he had done with the countless others.
