After Getting Promoted and a Raise, I Eloped with a Nonhuman Boss

Post-apocalyptic wasteland + Lobotomy Corporation + Library of Ruina + nonhumans;

Bai Ling, an overworked office worker on Blue Star, encounters a mysterious incident while working overtime and is locked up as a mental patient. A strange organization from the future rescues her and invites her to join the Wing Corporation. She goes from a tiny company on Blue Star straight to a massive conglomerate among the universe's top 500, where she discovers that the terrifying, bizarre Abnormalities that seem so frightening to normal humans are all pitiful little things in need of “talk therapy” in her eyes. All she has to do is provide “talk therapy” every day and, while she’s at it, soothe the ultimate nonhuman boss. Here's hoping she makes it safely to the end of every workday.
