- Once, there was a mighty warrior who made the Afterlife tremble.
- An arrogant heretic with overwhelming power.
- This monster, feared throughout the entire Underworld...
- ...after several thousand years...
Page 3
- Yawn...
- Ugh, I don't wanna go to work...
- ...had completely mellowed out,
- Mmmph!!
- This place's dango really is the best!
- ...and was living peacefully as the Great King of the Afterlife!

- This is the Afterlife.
- A place called the Shinigami World, where souls wander.
- Boss! We've got a customer with a mobile order!
- Huh?!
Page 7
- A mobile order?!
- You're right! I just noticed!
- Check, please!
- Do you take credit cards?
- We take Visa.
- Oh, I've got a Mastercard...
- The Afterlife is in the modern age, too.
- Okay, I'll use PayPay then.
- With the introduction of culture from the Living World,
- there's too much to learn!
- I'm from the abacus generation!
- it had become a digital society with free Wi-Fi!
- Thank you very much!
- Boss, someone left their smartphone outside.
- A smartphone?
Page 8
- Th...
- This smartphone is...!
- He forgot it yesterday too, didn't he?!
- I'm the one who returned it, right...?
- Seriously... get it together...
- This is the fifth time this month.
- Great King...!
- You guys must be bored. Lucky you...
- So peaceful...
- Same old thing, day in and day out.
- Great King of Shinigami

- There's not a single person out in the suburbs.
- Super easy to slack off. It's the best!
- But it's just not exciting enough...
- I wish something interesting would happen...
- It's been a long time since I became the Great King, but...
- not a single incident has occurred.
- It's been picture-perfect peace.
- Maybe I went a little too wild back in the day...
- Meeooowww.
- Oh!
- That's a kitty!
- Having a cat at home would be nice!!
- Meeooww.
- If it's a stray, maybe I'll take it home!
- Where are you!
- Ah! There you are!
Page 10
- Meow meow! Kitty!
- Let's play together!
- Waaaaaah!
- Cam 1
- Cam 2
- Cam 3
- Huh...?
Page 11
- Huh? A cat...
- Goo.
- Gah.
- ...it's not, it's a baby.
- I was hoping to get a cat, though...
- Ah.
- Ooh.
- Can't just leave him here.
- Guess I'll take him back to my place for now...
Page 12
- Boss!
- There he is! It's the Great King of Shinigami, no doubt about it!
- Hehehe...! Well done!
- So the rumors about him wandering around here were true!
- What are you...
- Now we'll find the Great King's weakness...
- ...and make him promote us!
- You're brilliant, Boss! What's next...?
- Think...!!
- I'm thinking...!!
Page 13
- We're ridiculously strong...! We've reaped countless souls...!
- And yet we're still just Apprentice Shinigami...!!
- For thirty years...!
- It's not fair...!
- It ain't fair, boss!
- We came to confront the Great King directly, but...
- How are we gonna bring this up...? If all three of us jump him... can we even win...?
- B-Boss!
- The Great King... he's got a kid with him!
- A... a kid?!
- He's carrying a baby!
- C-Carrying?!
- The Great King's not married, is he?
- It might be his secret love child!
Page 14
- There's no way we can't use this to our advantage...!
- I wonder what time it is.
- Forgot my phone.
- Izumi's so annoying when I'm late...
Page 15
- Gah!
- Whoa.
- I'm really flying!
Page 16
- Poor thing, being held so carelessly.
- Thanks to that, it was easy for us to snatch him. A real help.
- Great King.
- Nice crow! Is that your familiar?!
- It's huge.
- Uh... yeah, it's my familiar. The boss of the crows.
- Amazing! That's so cool!
- So, what's up?
- I've got work to get to.
- W-We...
- Listen... we've been Apprentice Shinigami for thirty years now.
- Even though we're super strong...!
- Promote us from apprentices!
Page 17
- If you refuse...
- You know what'll happen... right?
- Nope.
- I don't have that kind of authority.
- Wh...
- If you're apprentices, why not ask your site supervisor?
- And take care of the baby for me, will ya?
- I-It's not your kid?!
- Just found him a little while ago.
- I'm tellin' ya, if you don't do what we say, we'll kill the baby!
- Hmm?
- It's not like you guys have the guts to kill anyone, though.
Page 18
- That does it!!
- I mean, seriously...
- The very idea that you could get to me by targeting this baby...
- ...is exactly why you're still just apprentices.
Page 19
- You know, the owner of my favorite dango shop...
- D-Dango?!
- He spent decades in the Living World training to make Japanese sweets,
- then opened his shop here and spent decades more...
Page 20
- ...making dango every single day.
- That's how his shop finally got popular recently.
- He shot up straight from being an apprentice,
- and now he's one of the top artisans in the Shinigami World!
- Don't you think you guys need that kind of single-minded dedication?
Page 21
- Wai...
- Stop...
- St...
- Please stand by.
Page 22
- Glad there was a water fountain nearby.
- Ah.
- Oh, right.
- Here!
- It's dango from that shop I was just talking about!
- They had a pack of three, so you can have it!
- A Shinigami's lifespan is longer than a human's,
- so you should enjoy your time as an apprentice more!
- He's mocking us...
Page 23
- He's making a fool of us...
- What's the tallest building around here, and how many meters is it?
- ?
- The library? It's six thousand meters, right?
- From there, we'll take that baby...
- Oh.
- Ah.
- ...and drop him...!
Page 24
- He'll stop breathing and die on the way down...!
- It'll be your fault for not promoting us!
- It's all your fault for pissing us off...
- Boss...!
- That's...
- Do it!
- Yatagarasu!
Page 25
- You'll live to regret this!
- Boss!! That's going too far!
- A little too high to jump...
- Could you come here for a sec?
- I'm not your personal taxi, you know.
- It's just that a baby is currently falling.
Page 26
- THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO SOONER!!
Page 27
- Ahahaha!
Page 28
- That's a legendary dragon...
- I can't even see it anymore.
- ...and among them, the one called king... the Black Dragon...
- Hahaha...
- What were we thinking, doing something so stupid?
- Mmph! This dango is seriously good!
- Let me have some!
- Mmph...
- So good...!
- This is by far the best dango I've ever had...!
- He said it took decades to learn how to make this.
- Yeah...
Page 29
- Let's just work hard and be patient.
- All we can do is keep at it.
- He's fallen quite a ways.
- I hope he's just unconscious.
- !
- Hehehe...!
Page 30
- In this situation...
- ...this face...!
- I love it!!
- That smile is priceless!!
Page 31
- I'll make you my child.
Page 32
- Let's get along from now on!
- Ah
- Baby!
- Goo!
Page 33
- Ooh!
- Waaah!
- If you enjoyed it,
- We'd love a review!
