Colette Decides to Die Vol. 01

Colette, an overworked apothecary, finds romance and a new lease on life—in the underworld!!

Colette meets Hades, a fellow workaholic, while he is ill in bed with a rash and fever. After treating his condition, she learns about the work he does and what drives him, in turn renewing her sense of purpose as an apothecary. Colette is sent back to her own world, but is this the last she will see of Hades?
