I Became a Metaphysics Expert in the Underworld by Outworking Everyone

[Metaphysics + ghost hunting + episodic tales + lighthearted healing + leveling up + powerful hero, even more powerful heroine] [Underworld temp worker VS cold, sharp-tongued boss] Jing Chun, a post-2000s college graduate who can't find a job, lands an offer from the underworld after a car accident! When a big shot from the netherworld personally invites her, she fires off three life-or-death questions: Is this a permanent position? Do you pay during the probation period? Do you offer social insurance and a housing fund? Lord Cui answers with a kindly smile: Young people should think long-term. Promotions and raises are all within reach! Jing Chun: The boss has painted me a huge, round pie. I'll happily take a bite! But on her very first day, she's dumped on the hardest boss in the entire underworld: Cui Siqi. With a face that radiates world-weariness, he barely acknowledges her. Their usual conversations go like this: “You drew the talisman wrong.” “The barrier is too weak.” “Overtime tonight.” But Jing Chun is willing to do whatever it takes to make money! She takes the troublesome cases! She handles the low-paying jobs! She catches the evil spirits everyone else avoids! She takes jobs nonstop on the “Dead or Not” app, determined to outwork all her coworkers, who aren't even human! From rookie intern to annual top earner! On the awards stage, she tearfully declares: “Thank you to my boss, Cui Siqi, for putting me down, ignoring me, and mocking me day in and day out for all these years, pushing me to grow with his cold indifference! That's how I achieved everything I have today!” Cui Siqi gives a cold laugh and pins her against the edge of the Terrace of Looking Homeward. “That's right. I've raised you, you ungrateful little brat, for long enough. It's time to collect, with interest.” #ThoseYearsWorkingInTheUnderworld# #WorkingYourselfToTheBoneAtTheGatesOfHell#
