I Will Overthrow the Underworld on My Feet

With this cannon, can I overthrow the Underworld on my feet?

Yes! But you'll have to kneel!

What if we add a mushroom bomb?

Yes! But you'll still have to kneel!

What if we add a star destroyer? Can I damn well overthrow this Underworld standing up or not?

May I ask your esteemed name?

This Underworld is so backward. The human world has planes, cannons, and tanks, while the Underworld has knives, forks, clubs, and bricks.

The human world has cars, high-speed trains, and subways, along with computer networks and grueling overtime. It has high-rise buildings, modern kitchens, and underfloor heating.

Here, people get around mostly on foot, communicate mostly by shouting, and keep the peace mostly by keeping their heads down.

So, Host, you need to change this place! You have to turn it into an Underworld just like the human world.

The ghosts: "If we risk our lives following you, how much salary will we earn each month? ... Uh... I mean wages."

"Don't talk to me about wages! Don't talk to me about salaries! If you think like that, you'll spend your whole life working for someone else!"

"But I'm a girl."

"Remember, if you rely on your husband, you're a princess! If you rely on yourself, you're a queen!"
