    The heroine, a master of metaphysics, dresses as cannon fodder and swaps bodies with the original male protagonist's uncle. The male protagonist handles company affairs while teaching the female protagonist; the female protagonist helps the male protagonist with company matters while healing her body and fighting ghosts. The two are complementary and fun. The male and female protagonists are both super good, and the author's writing is also very good.
