Rocket Shokai started the story on the Kakuyomu website in February 2016, and Kadokawa released it as a novel with illustrations by Kusaka Yuuya in December 2016. The book is getting re-published with illustrations by toi8.
Rocket Shokai and Nakashima723 adapted the story into a manga in 2018 in Leed Publishing’s Comic Border Service, and Leed Publishing released the manga’s first tankoubon volume in March 2019. The manga’s seventh volume will be published on March 21st, 2025.
The manga’s story is described below:
In an alternate 21st century, rich mafia members can turn into “Demon Kings” through increasingly popular ether-enhancement surgery, and the bounty hunters called “Braves” are the ones called upon to take them down. Yashiro only wants the simple pleasures in life – pizza, beer, and card games. When three young Braves offer him a majestic sum to be their private tutor, he agrees solely for the money – but is it worth what he’s getting himself into?
