The Netherworld Auditor: Calculating the Price of Immortality

Death isn’t a spiritual journey. It’s a massive accounting error. Arthur Reed was London’s most feared forensic auditor. He spent his life dismantling corrupt corporations with nothing but a spreadsheet and a cynical sneer. But when a freak accident sends him to the afterlife, he doesn't find the Pearly Gates. He finds Diyu—the Eastern Underworld. It’s a world of ancient gods, terrifying demons, and a bureaucracy so bloated and corrupt it makes the modern tax office look like a masterpiece of efficiency. In this land of Karma and Reincarnation, Arthur is a "System Glitch"—a Western soul with no identification, no merit, and a one-way ticket to the Soul-Refining Pit. But the Gods of Death made one fatal mistake: They let Arthur keep his glasses. With his unique [Audit Sight], the mystical forces of the universe appear to him as raw data. To the soul-reapers, Karma is a divine mystery. To Arthur? It’s just a messy ledger full of trillions in "Karmic Debt" and "Tax Evasion." Why fight a Thousand-Year Demon when you can trigger his "Unpaid Sin Interest" and let the Heavenly Tribulation do the work for you? Armed with a dry wit, a disgraced legendary War God as his "administrative assistant," and a complete lack of reverence for the "Celestial Mandate," Arthur begins his ascent. He’s not here to cultivate. He’s here to perform a hostile takeover of the City of the Unjustly Dead. The Heavens are in the red. And Arthur is here to collect.
