I Asked You to Watch Over a Corpse, and You Sent My Dad to the Afterlife?

"Where's my dad?! Where's my dad?! Where did you put my dad's urn?!"

A middle-aged man roared furiously at the young man before him.

The young man remained calm and quietly pointed to the restroom behind the man.

"I performed the rites to send him off."

"What?!"

The middle-aged man froze.

"You... you sent him off?! I asked you to watch over my dad's funeral, and you flushed his ashes down the toilet?!"

"You don't understand. In life, your father suffered from a toxic illness and could barely drink any water. After death, his resentment lingered. Now he's returned to the sea. You could call it a water burial."

At the young man's explanation, the man's eyes widened. He'd thought the young man was just a charlatan and was about to curse him out when a familiar, furious shout came from behind.

"You unfilial brat! Get on your knees before the master!"

The man turned around and saw a wisp of a ghost floating in the air.

"Dad..."
