My Pension Is Too Hard to Earn, So I Take a Side Job Slaying Monsters

[Transformation (Sort Of) + Not Brain-Dead + No System + Character Growth + Everyday Life + Scheming Heroine (Male Lead's Soul)]

[I don't want to save the world. I just want to collect rent.]

[Don't talk to me about love. It costs money.]

Don't ask. I was a wage slave in my previous life, worked myself to death at thirty-eight, and woke up as a five-foot-three schoolgirl.

This world is overrun with strange phenomena and monsters, while the Order Bureau and underground organizations are locked in a tangled struggle...

As for me, Shou Yu, my only dream is to save enough for retirement and settle down somewhere beautiful, where I can happily stay home all day.

Retirement savings are too hard to earn? Guess I'll hunt a few ghosts on the side.

Shadows are my domain, darkness is my food.

Codename: “Ghoul.” I deal with anyone who thinks they can challenge me. Pay enough, and I'll drag even the gods down for you!

“Nightmare Weaver”? Doesn't taste great, but the energy's decent.

“Heart Eater”? Don't get in the way of me going home after work.

By day, I'm a good-for-nothing “dad,” looked after by my six-foot-tall “daughter.”

“Dad, don't drink so much!”

By night, I'm an apex predator prowling the shadows of the city, feeding on fear.

Ai: “My dad, who looks like a good-for-nothing, is actually my mom!”

I have no grand ambition to save the world. My life philosophy is simply: “Run if you can't win, and collect payment when the job's done.”

This is the easygoing everyday story (?) of a thirty-eight-year-old office worker whose soul ends up in a schoolgirl's body, trying to earn money (by beating up monsters) in a strange world so she can retire early.

Shou Yu: “What do I care about humanity's future... Wait, what do you mean the retirement savings I've worked my whole life to build up got burned to a crisp?!!”
