The dark workplace comedy manga takes place in a world where murder and torture are legal and numerous "torture contract companies" exist. Cero and Shiu work part time for the "Spirytus" torture company, which is known for treating its employees well and only targeting bad people. Two new part time hires — Mikke and Hugh — also join the company, and the four enjoy their torture-working life.

The manga launched on Hakusensha's Young Animal Web service in December 2022. Hakusensha published the fifth volume on December 26, and will publish the sixth volume on June 27.
