Dear NOMAN ch2

p1
>...Now then.

>Hey, short stuff.
>Wanna come to my place?

p2
>Short stuff.

>!?
>Hey.
>Hey~

>Who you calling... short...
>stuff...

p3
>...Right.
>I should wake her up.
>Why don't you just...her..., Bazu?
>That would wake her up, right?

>Like some kind of prince.
>Huh!?
>Don't joke around. That would basically be...

>...uh...?
>...Hah...!!!

p4
>Heh?
>ah.

>...Pft.

p5
>...!!??
>Aaahahaha! cough That! Was! Awe! Some!

>...!?...?
>J-Just now... on my lips...!?
>Good morning, miss<3

>Now then...
>Hey!
>Don't joke around with me...!!!
>Now now, calm down, Bazu-ko.

>Ladies first.
>Well, we're all girls here, though.
>You've got a lot of questions, right? Ask away, lady.

>...Wh-Where am I?
>And what happened to me anyway...?

p6
>...That's right.
>I followed that little guy into a back alley and...

>...ah...

>That was a close one...
>This lady over here saved you and brought you all the way here after you passed out.

>I was just doing my job.
>Picking up the shorty was just a part of it.

>Short stuff...
>That's twice now.
>...Ah!

>I'm not a shorty!
>I'm just starting my growing period!
>>Shut up
>Huuh~? It's fact that you're a shorty right now, isn't it!?

p7
>Hmm.

>You saw a "Noman", didn't you?

>?
>No...man?

>...You mean that weird ghost thing?
>>This thing
>I've been able to see ghosts since I was little, though...
>That's right!
>We call them "Noman" since they're souls that no man can normally see.

>You see, there is a set time that souls can remain in the transient world.
>Those who spend too much time in this world,
>become violent and attack living things, like the one that attacked you...

p8
>They become evil spirits that maintain their form by devouring souls.

>So, that little guy from before...
>was deceiving me so it could eat me...?
>You got it.

>We defend Nomans against these evil spirits
>and "send off" Nomans that have turned into evil spirits to a desirable place.
>That's the job of the "Boundary Preservation Society", an organization that manages the boundary between life and death.

>...And so, with that exposition out of the way,
>this woman in black here is also a Noman.

p9
>!?
>Hey!! Redo the contract!
>Now now. It sounds fun so it's okay, right?
>I don't want a brat like this to be my master!

>Nomans are seperated into classes based on how dangerous they are.
>The one who attacked you is Grade B, so you know...
>eat in!
>Stop it~

>Among those are Nomans who don't become evil spirits.

>These spirits and ghosts serve as messengers for the gods
>and won't recklessly steal souls.
>They're neutral as far as dead spirits are concerned
>These Nomans, who could not enter Heaven, were chosen and created under special conditions...
>They are distinguished as "Grade X" Nomans.

>She is one of those Grade X Nomans,
>and works for us under a contract.

p10
>...Now then.
>What's your name?

>Ah... It's Mashiro.
>Unohana Mashiro.
>Hm. You can see ghosts, right, Mashiro-chan?
>I'd like to talk to you about that.

>Would you like to try
>working for our organization?

>Hey, Nelly, are you serious!?
>A brat like that...!?
>The boundary is always short on staff.

>Hey, Mashiro-chan?
>Won't you help us keep the Nomans from causing damage?

p11
>Even if you ask me that out of the blue....
>What can I even do...?

>Just do like you did with that thing from earlier...

>Nomans come in all shapes and sizes.
>Manual labour alone won't do anything to stop them.

>Besides,
>you'll have Bazu here possessing you.

>Bazu...
>Tch
>Don't call me that

>Hey, I'm against this!!
>A brat like her will only drag me down...!!
>She doesn't have a micron of courtesy, but she'll make a good bodyguard,
>don't you think?

p12
>...I know it sounds like we're threatening you, but
>Nomans are particularly sensitive to humans that can see souls.
>It'd be to protect your family and school friends too... right?

>You wouldn't want the people around you to wind up in danger because of you, right?

>Because of me...

>everyone will...

p13
>...Well, even if you decline for now,
>we'll keep a watch over you, so don't worry...
>...I'll do it.

>I don't want to experience
>...that feeling ever again.

p14
>...Fufu.
>You're a good kid.

>Are you just ignoring
>my opinion, you shitty human!?

>It's not too late... Just take this drug and go home already!
>O-Ow... What... drug!?

p15
>It's not poison, y'know...

>It'll melt in your mouth like bubbles
>and you'll forget everything you know about Nomans.
>Eh!?
>That's totally poison!!

>...You shouldn't have to force yourself to get involved with us Nomans.
>The humans of this world are better off not knowing.

>What can a little shrimp like you possibly do?
>Just leave everything to the capable adults...
>...St-...

p16
>STOP IT!!

>...Gh...

p17
>Gweeeeeh! I can't breathe~~~!!!
>?
>??
>No rough-housing<3
>Haha. It's because Mashiro-chan raised her hand.

>As you can see, she's a runaway horse.

>It's a little something I installed
>to make sure she follows orders.
>Shit...!
>I'm not a horse!

>Her master is determined with a kiss on the lips.

>What happened earlier was unexpected,
>wasn't it?

p18
>From this moment on, Mashiro-chan...
>you are this woman's master<3

p19
>I'm home~

>You're home later, Mashiro.
>I thought you didn't have club today?
>Head straight into the bath.
>Okay~
>A lot happened and I ended up late.

p20
>Dear Onee-chan,
>How's life over there? Are you having fun?

>I made a rather peculiar friend.

>She's a bit malicious and rebellious, but...
>Don't get any wrong ideas...

>Huh~?
>I can annul this contract with you at any time.
>Feel free to come crying to me if you get scared and wanna quit, got it...?

>...Could it be...

p21
>you're worried about me?
>Wha...!!! Hell no!! I'm just checking if you're ready for all of this!!!
>You should be grateful!!!

>...Hmph!

>Try to last more than three days...

>Short Stuff.

>Geez!
>Huh~? I'm not wrong, am I~?

p22
>She's a bit malicious... and rebellious, but...

>since I have the opportunity...

>it would be nice if we could become friends.

>Fwah...

>Achoo!
