Oathbound Fantasy Supernatural Psychological
Your soul is a commodity traded by powerful beings that attempt to outwit mortals with tempting bargains and the promise that a soul is just an ethereal thing they won't ever have to worry about.
Enter, Albert Carol: Idiot teenage boy and waste of space with no future.
Killed due to mysterious circumstances, Albert needs to negotiate his way out of selling his soul to the so-called Grim Reaper and try to earn his mortal life back. But Death doesn't give up so easily, and Albert's soul doesn't seem to be the only thing he's after.
