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 sixth volume on June 27, and will publish the seventh volume on December 25.
