The Daily Life of a Part-time Torturer (拷問バイトくんの日常)

Today's Menu

This Month's Recommendations!

Hugh, why so deep in thought?

Las-kun.

Hey.

What's this? Torture studies?

Yeah.

You've been pretty enthusiastic about it lately.

I was wondering what to do about my report.

I see.

I'm not taking that course, and none of our friends are in it, so...

Hey.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Modern Torture Studies I

Why don't you just ask one of your senpai at work?

They're pros.

Oh.

The Daily Life of a Part-Time Torturer

The Next Day

Modern Torture Studies, huh?

So this is the kind of stuff you're studying.

I was hoping I could talk to everyone to get good references for my report.

What kind of stuff do they teach you?

Things like torture methods and the importance of torture.

Really?

Is that any fun?

Yes!

Not only do we give villains a taste of retribution,

but through the new information we obtain, we destroy even more villains!

Torture saves the good in the world, and its wonderful culture has such depth.

It's definitely worth studying!

What a nice smile.

Modern Torture Studies I

What's this? Modern Torture Studies?

Do you know this stuff?

To an extent.

I know some stuff about torture methods,

but nothing about the rest.

I only know what I looked up out of interest.

That's how it is for both of you?

We leave the bothersome details to others.

We just do the torturing.

They're definitely consistent.

I have national certifications, after all.

And thanks to Siu-san's threat—help,

I've got lots of certifications, too.

They're almost like trading cards at this point.

Government, public, civil...

A full set looks something like this.

There are all kinds, huh?

Wow.

Siu-san, please stop trying to compete.

I'm not competing.

Still, they may be scum, but this job does involve hurting people.

There are a lot of rules.

Even though these villains don't deserve a single shred of such consideration.

Hugh, you scare me sometimes.

Modern Torture Studies I

I'd never looked into any of this in detail before. It really is interesting!

Could be good to use this as an opportunity to learn some of it.

Which brings us to...

the first-ever Heart-Pounding Torture Quiz Tournament!

Heart-Pounding

Torture Quiz Tournament Question 1

Question one!

It's a tool used to scratch skin! Easy, right?

The name of this torture device is...

The name of this torture device is...

I know! Cat's claws!

However!

At what point is a torturer allowed to use it?

That's the question?

When the torture target is designated Class 2.

Correct

Correct!

But...

personally, I think that even among Class 3 torture targets,

there are a mountain of villains more than deserving of the cat's claws.

The current standards seem too lenient in...

Don't add personal opinions to a correct answer.

Torture Quiz Tournament Question 2

Heart-Pounding

Okay, next...

is a question about water torture.

That's the kind I like!

The use of water torture is permitted with...

Class 2! Class 2!

However...

given certain conditions, it is not limited to that.

If it doesn't exceed thirty minutes, its use is permitted at Class 3.

That's correct.

Correct

No fair!

Hugh

We have the results!

Prize

Yakiniku Ticket

Valid at whatever yakiniku place you like

Expiration date: None!

Hugh, you look so happy.

Is it because you beat me so badly?

N-No, it's not!

Before now, I never got along with people very well,

but no one here gives me special treatment.

I've been able to work and have normal conversations...

So I was just thinking how happy I am that I started torturing and met you all!

NUZZLE

Me, too!

Me, too!

Did this help with your report?

Nuzzle, nuzzle...

Yes.

I'd like a private room for four, please.

The Next Day

Your report was so good, you got an award?

Award

It's thanks to all of you!

That's amazing!

He might change the torture biz one day.

What?

An urgent job?

We were just on our way out.

The request just came in, and they want the information today.

I suppose I could do it.

Really?

But in exchange...

MWAH HA HA

you have to say, "Sero-sama, I beg of you!"

Urk...

He came up with that stupid request 'cause he thinks

he's the only one I can ask!

I'm sorry, I have a deadline.

And I have class work.

Sure. Good work today.

But for the company... For Hela-san...

Sero-sama!

You just had to go and bring in this headache...

I guess I've got no choice.

I'll go change clothes. Get everything ready for me.

That damn Sero... Why is he always intent on humiliating me?

Why is the only one I can turn to, and today of all days?

Plus, his handwriting sucks, he always turns in his shift papers late,

and he's always picking fights with me!

Why do Hela-san and Siu-san like him so much?

I mean, all he can do is torture people, right?

I'm...

I'm jealous.

He should be...

in the... warehouse district...

He's not good with any kind of violence.

You know that Hela took Noe in, right?

Yes.

Before that, he wasn't treated well by his parents.

Being with Hela helped him get past all that,

but he still has an understandable aversion to it.

I'm sure it bothers him that he can't perform torture.

Is not being able to torture really something to worry about?

...a-alone.

Sorry, I wasn't listening. Could you say that again?

You're kidding me.

You're done?

Yeah.

What a horrible smell.

I got a bit rough because of the rush,

and I only just finished, so...

Oh, boy.

Ugh. This couldn't get any worse.

He really just puked on me and then fainted...

Got his own clothes dirty, too.

Where am I?!

The nap room.

Why?

Because you barfed, duh.

GLOOM

You think I'm pathetic, don't you?

Yup.

Can you blame me? I mean, I'll never react like you do.

What's it matter what I think, anyway?

There's no need for you to think the same about yourself.

But since you puked on me and made me take care of you

after making me work overtime, you should be thanking me until you die.

Th-Thanks.

It's all about being the right person for the job.

Don't stress over it so much. It's annoying.

Hela-san and Siu-san really care about you,

and everyone around you relies on you.

Really?

So you rely on me, too?

Oh, no, not me.

Well, you're always... always...

You glare at him every time you meet.

You should be able to handle it better than that.
