I was a perfectly ordinary university student. I'd wake up, eat, go to school, come home, and sleep.

Living that mundane life, one night, I woke up feeling something strange, only to find some black entity standing blankly in front of me.

But... well, maybe because I was half-asleep, I just thought it was a black trash bag I'd forgotten to throw away and tried to go back to sleep...

That black entity suddenly started walking toward me step by step and abruptly held a scythe to my throat.

Then it chanted some weird spell, and suddenly, I was told I was dead.

So I was walking through what they called the underworld? The afterlife? I was terrified.

Anyway, that black entity told me I had to be judged. But I've lived a good life...

When the judgment came out as 'Heaven-bound,' I felt better and headed straight for the gates of Heaven, but...

The gatekeeper said my name wasn't on the list of the deceased.

Wondering what on earth was going on, I looked at the Reaper who brought me here. He turned pale, talked to the gatekeeper, and then told me...

He had mistaken me for someone who looked like me and brought me here by accident.

I can't believe this is happening to me... While I stood there dazed, the person who judged me earlier came over.

'To return to the world of the living, you need passage money, but since that only starts accumulating once you become an adult, you don't have any money right now.'

They actually said that. So they told me to earn money while in a semi-soul state. I stood there and argued for dozens of minutes.

Eventually, the Chief Justice said he'd send the clumsy Reaper along with me.

I wasn't exactly satisfied with that... but it didn't seem like I could get anything more out of them, so I decided to give it a try for now.
