Poisonous Friend is no longer a trope


* FalseFriend: Angela from the first chapter. Not so much before she died, but after she's ressurrected and her personality traits are widened, she finds a way of pushing away all of Rikka's classmates while also gaining their favor, so she can monopolize her completely. She's even compared to a succubus.

* PragmaticHero: Asutsuo is not essentially a bad guy, [[UsedToBeASweetKid as seen in his backstory]], and his ultimate goal is to [[spoiler:give Ricott's memories back to her, after offing himself in a HeroicSacrifice]]. But he's not above purposefully withholding information about Necromancy from his clients even though he knows it'll screw them up in the end. An example of this is when he leaves out the pretty important "special characteristic" explanation to the very first client we meet, or when he allows the apprentice in Chapter 11 to [[spoiler: repeatedly shorten his lifespan, instead of telling him to stop performing Necromancy]]. He also at one point resurrects someone who would only live for ''30 seconds'', and when the person asks why he did it, [[NothingPersonal he replies that it was just his job]].
** It's worth noting that in order to [[spoiler: perform the Perfect Resurrection, Asutsuo would have to achieve 616 performed resurrections, [[JustifiedTrope so it makes sense]] that he would go to such lengths as to achieve that number quickly, even if it takes not telling people precious information that could potentially change their minds from the Necromancy; after all, [[WellIntentionedExtremist returning Ricott's memories was his ultimate goal]]]] The apprentice's case however was either him being a {{Jerkass}} or maybe he felt that what the kid was doing hit too close to home, given his own family's fate as Necromancers.

He was actually paying with ''his own'' lifespan. In the end, Asutsuo reveals the apprentice, who seems a rather young kid, only has three years left to live.]]

* TheComicallySerious: Although [[PsychoticSmirk he grins]] [[PerpetualSmiler a lot]], Asutsuo isn't exactly a comical person (when he's not being smug, he's actually fairly serious), and most of his comedic moments come from this.

In Slum Street, there lives a necromancer, Asutsuo Johann-Faust. If someone wishes to have another brought back to life, provided that they can bring all the bones intact to him, he can resurrect them by taking three years of the client's life and giving it to the deceased. However, the process also amplifies certain characteristics within the resurrected individual. The story mostly deals with the clients who come to the necromancer, the circumstances of the resurrections, and the consequences.
