A deadly game as a line of work

Yuki’s first challenge begins in the Ghost House, where she and five other girls in maid uniforms must navigate traps including blowguns, buzz saws, locked rooms, and weapons. The unusual premise turns a familiar survival-game setup into a job: at seventeen, Yuki earns her living by taking part in death games, a career she herself recognizes as strange. This first volume establishes the contrast between the manor’s lethal obstacles and Yuki’s professional familiarity with them, setting up an action-fantasy story centered on survival as a livelihood.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers interested in action fantasy built around deadly survival challenges.
  • For readers who enjoy premises that combine game-like traps with an unconventional profession.

Book overview

BUILDING A LIFE OUT OF DEATHYuki wakes up to find herself in an unfamiliar manor, wearing a maid uniform and lying on a luxurious bed. Soon, she discovers five more girls, all dressed the same as her. This is the Ghost House, and the only way they can survive is to make it through the traps that lie in wait-deadly games full of blowguns, buzz saws, locked rooms, and weapons. It's a hopeless, terrifying situation for everyone there...well, everyone except Yuki. After all, this is her career at seventeen. Do you think that's odd? She would agree. But that's how some people are-they earn their living playing death games.
