This was definitely an interesting premise for a story. Not too long (especially for a mag) and relatively easy to follow. It would interesting to see how Kuro progresses with the new responsibility and I wound up thinking of SNAFU's Grim Tales Fromm Down Below.
Thanks I'm glad you liked it. I plan on expanding the world with a visual novel later in life. However it would be a prequel, a sequel is something I have to ponder.
