The King Of Debt

Ever since their college days, Souta has been trapped in a relentless cycle of lending money to his chronically irresponsible friend, Taketora. Despite having no real grasp on personal finances, Taketora constantly turns to Souta for cash, never once intending to pay it back. The situation is especially burdensome because Souta is far from wealthy himself. He struggles daily to make ends meet, relying entirely on the meager earnings from his part-time student job just to survive. Yet, every time Taketora flashes him that pleading expression, Souta finds his resolve completely shattered, unable to refuse another request. The financial strain reaches an unexpected turning point when Taketora proposes a startling alternative to settling his ever-growing debt. Rather than returning the borrowed money—a feat he is clearly incapable of achieving—he suggests repaying Souta with his own body instead. This provocative proposition throws Souta into an entirely new dilemma, blurring the boundaries between their long-standing friendship and something far more complicated. What began as a frustrating pattern of one-sided loans now threatens to evolve into an unconventional arrangement, leaving Souta to navigate the confusing intersection of debt, desperation, and desire.
