A Mafia executive from a certain port city returns from a mission to discover that his former partner is gone?
Hearing the good news, he says he could down another bottle of Petrus!
But that very night, he gets so excited and drunk that he loses his balance, hits his head on a table corner, and dies???
What kind of bullshit joke is this! Where is the dignity of an executive?!!!
A System tells him that if he enters a fairytale world and drives out the aberration inside, he can come back to life.
To preserve what little dignity the Port Mafia has left (and, more importantly, because he absolutely cannot die in such an embarrassing way!), he agrees.
Little does he know...
The “princess,” wrapped in bandages and wearing a pretty little dress, runs excitedly toward him
System: He is the aberration you need to drive out.
Me: Well, actually... Life is too tiring, work is too hard, and everything is too difficult, so I don’t want to come back to life! I! Want! To! Quit!
System: ...
System: I’ve changed my mind too.
Me (delighted).
System: The fairytale world has already been wrecked. Repair it and you can go back. Good luck! Goodbye!
Me: System? System? ...Damn it! Come back here if you’ve got the guts!
Content warning: This fairytale is a dark one.
CP: A former partner who loves princess dresses and enthusiastically recommends them to his partner, with delicate, fragile skin, the Princess and the Pea, and a pretty little dwarf from the Port Mafia who firmly rejects princess dresses and has an iron will (Want to be crushed by gravity?)
Theme: Fairytales don’t have to be beautiful, but if you work hard, the ending will be good.
