The red moon rose, and the supernatural returned.
As the whole world was engulfed in terror, everyone trembled in dark corners and fought desperately to survive.
Jiang Bai looked at the green-faced, fanged female ghost baring her claws before him and silently pulled out a thick employment contract.
“Stop baring your teeth and sign this. Base pay: 2,000 hell coins. Sixteen hours of work a day, meals and lodging included, but your life isn’t guaranteed. Do a good job and you’ll get a paper mansion at the end of the year.”
The female ghost was stunned.
The survivors hiding in the cupboard were stunned too.
From that day on, the terrifying supernatural realm got its very own true “Living King of Hell.”
The long-tongued ghost was forced to lick envelopes on the assembly line day and night. The terrifying water ghost was squeezed for all it was worth as a human-powered rain machine in the fields. The red-clothed vengeful ghost was even forced into a seductive dress, dancing on a midnight livestream to earn tips for Jiang Bai...
Many years later,
when the most terrifying primordial horror of the ancient past broke its seal and descended upon the world, ready to reap it,
what it saw was an army of billions of supernatural employees in gray-blue uniforms, eyes bloodshot, lined up in perfect formation to do the ninth set of broadcast calisthenics.
Jiang Bai stood on a raised platform and nudged his half-rimmed glasses. “You just broke out of your seal, so you must be new here. Head to Human Resources and fill out a form. We don’t keep idle ghosts.”
