Kaito Irie, once no more than a bored salaryman, now lives a comfortable life alongside Oltea and Frieze, his animal-eared companions in adventure. As a peerlessly powerful warrior and wielder of a versatile laser beam, he holds the position of Sword Saint and watches over the kingdom. But not all is peaceful in the Royal Capital... Soon the crew meets Tigaro, a tiger-eared girl living in disgrace after standing up for her downtrodden friends. At the same time, word reaches the guild of a great forthcoming surge of monsters the likes of which has not been seen in decades: the Stampede. The threat, greater even than Vlad’s demon army, seems to somehow relate to Tigaro’s mysterious past... So begins the second chapter in From Desk Job to Death Beam, the tale of a powerful warrior who loves nothing more than animal ears!
