What Is the Plot and Story Premise of MARRIAGETOXIN?

The narrative introduces Hikaru Gero, a socially inept young man who belongs to the historic Poison Clan, an elite lineage of underworld hitmen who have perfected lethal chemical arts for centuries. Having spent his entire life dealing in toxins and operating in the dark side of society, Gero has zero social skills and assumes romantic relationships are completely out of his reach. He vows to live and die a solitary assassin, targeting only societal scum who destroy innocent lives.

Everything changes when the clan elders issue a brutal ultimatum: if Gero does not find a bride to secure the family bloodline, they will force his younger sister, Akari, into an arranged marriage to bear the next heir against her wishes. Determined to protect his sister’s freedom so she can live peacefully with her girlfriend, Gero resolves to get married.

He forms a desperate, unexpected alliance with Mei Kinosaki, a brilliant, crossdressing marriage swindler he was originally hired to execute. Instead of killing her, Gero recruits Kinosaki as his ultimate relationship advisor. Together, they embark on a series of wild, high-stakes missions to transform a trained killer into a charming future husband, fending off deadly rival assassin clans along the way.
