60:T7ee,A rookie Messenger of the Index. Originally skeptical of the Prescripts, he tried to resist as much as possible by creating fake ones, only to realize that even his acts of rebellion were ultimately part of the Prescript's intent, leading to his Distortion. Now, he blindly carries out the Prescripts. He is 292cm tall, male, and 25 years old. Regarding his appearance, he features a white hair dome in the shape of cracked crystal and a long veil trailing to the left. In the central void where eyes and nose should be, a golden lock structure engraved with a keyhole is situated. His lower jaw is shaped like a skull, with teeth fully exposed. He wears long garments in the form of a dress or gown, blending white and black. The center of his chest has a unique form where a brilliant blue light glows inside structures resembling threads or spiderwebs, making the interior look visible. A golden belt decoration is wrapped around his waist. Both hands are suspended and connected to his body by golden chains. These massive hands have sharp, long fingers and are composed of black with golden borders. The bottom consists of a frayed, black-and-white stained skirt hem that flows onto the floor, supported by a leg-like structure covered in keyholes. After manifesting his Distortion, he appears to have become a formidable enemy with combat power on the level of a Star of the City. Distorted to the point where no trace of his former self remains, his original greatsword has vanished, and he fights using his massive arms. Normally, his left and right hands move independently and freely; when his health drops below a certain point, he merges with the arms to cast an area-of-effect skill (a massive sword surrounded by dark blue effects appears above the enemy lines and plunges down). He usually attacks by grabbing or crushing opponents with those giant hands connected by chains. Since becoming Distorted, whenever Yan speaks, his voice is mixed with the sound of a weaving loom and the clacking of a typewriter.61:T411,A collective term for all areas within each region excluding the Nests. Nominally, the Backstreets are also under the jurisdiction of the Wings, but since almost all Wings neglect them, they are effectively in a state of anarchy with complex environments intertwined. Consequently, a large number of lower-class citizens and criminal organizations operate here. In every Backstreet, desires for money and dreams are messily entangled, including cram schools for those trying to enter a Nest through employment exams, Syndicates and Fixer Offices constantly searching for lucrative work, and Workshops and businesses of all sizes profiting from these conflicts. Furthermore, during the 'Night in the Backstreets' at midnight, tens of millions of machine-like creatures called 'Sweepers' emerge and slaughter everyone in the Backstreets. However, they do not attack anyone inside a building or location recognized as a residential zone. It appears they completely erase even the corpses of those caught outside recognized residential zones.62:T447,Megacorporations possessing incredible technologies called 'Singularities.' Through these Singularities that defy existing physical laws, they accelerated human progress and brought immense material abundance. However, the humanities—such as morality, ethics, ideology, and culture—could not keep up with the introduction of these Singularities, which led to the creation of the current City. Their Singularities provide material abundance by using or sacrificing humans as raw materials. What is even bleaker is that all Singularities could be used humanely if efficiency were compromised even slightly. Additionally, just as there are Taboos of the City, the Wings have their own internal Taboos, and those who violate them are reportedly disposed of by Taboo Hunters. They are depicted not merely as modern corporations but as corporate states, akin to kings ruling over small nations or local governments of a federation, managing their respective Nests, granting or revoking citizenship, collecting taxes, and even creating and commanding their own military organizations for security.63:T44c,Members of Corp. A, which is directly operated by the Head. Fitting for those who deal with the secrets of the world, they possess a vast amount of information, including much of the truth about the City. They are the Head's undisputed ultimate force and are among the strongest beings in the City's universe. Even a Color Fixer at the pinnacle of Fixers or individuals with equivalent martial prowess are no match for them. They possess overwhelming strength, capable of unilaterally closing down even a Wing, the wealthiest and most powerful megacorporations in the City. They have the ability to manipulate Singularities at will; seeing them fire energy blades or beams with a gesture, or create massive energy pillars and chains to attack, makes them resemble mages from a classic fantasy world more than technological entities. Their primary ability involves 'Fairies' derived from Corp. F's Singularity, which they use to tear people apart, summon and throw pillars, or cause energy waves from the sky to devastate an entire area. They only appear when a Taboo of the City has been violated.64:T46b,1. Tax Evasion and Patent Infringement Applies when one fails to pay taxes in the City or uses patented technology without authorization. Upon violation, three warnings are given to pay the taxes and royalties. If the warnings are ignored, the Claws will arrive to collect everything as if wringing out a rag, and if the violator resists or has no money to pay, they are executed on the spot. 2. Resurrection of Life Prohibits resurrecting a dead organism with the same ego and appearance it had while alive. 3. Firearm Regulations Producers require specific qualifications, and firearms must be manufactured only according to the City's guidelines. Furthermore, taxes on firearm use are set extremely high, so few Associations or Wings use them as primary weapons. 4. AI Ethics Amendment Prohibits the creation of AI with self-awareness indistinguishable from humans. Upon discovery, the AI is immediately destroyed or expelled to the Outskirts regardless of the owner's property rights, and the creator is summarily executed. 5. Clone Regulations No more than one of the same human can exist in the City for more than 7 days.65:T4a8,Freelancers who take requests from others to handle a wide range of tasks. They are similar to adventurers or mercenaries in the medieval fantasy genre, or private investigators in reality. Beyond combat, including contract killing, they perform various tasks such as information trading, bodyguiding, investigation, collection, detective work, and legal affairs. Depending on their level, the scope of their work is incredibly broad, ranging from finding lost cats to subjugating Stars of the City. Every Fixer is assigned a serial number called a FIN by the Hana Association. They are managed through a merit/demerit point system based on their actions; if demerit points exceed a certain level, their grade may be demoted or their license revoked. Furthermore, even if they retire and cease activity, the license itself is maintained, and they can return at any time if they wish. Grades are assigned based on a Fixer's ability. They range from the lowest Grade 9 to the highest Grade 1. Among Grade 1 Fixers, those who are exceptionally strong and special are designated as 'Colors.' Both the granting of Fixer licenses and the assignment of grades are overseen by the Hana Association.66:T423,The regions outside the City. If the Backstreets are a lawless land where crime is rampant, the Outskirts are more like an undeveloped wilderness where non-human monsters and creatures roam. It is described as a waste disposal site where things designated as Impurities by the Head or those rejected and discarded by the City gather. Notably, all non-human sapient beings were exiled to the Outskirts long ago. These non-human sapient beings exiled from the City hate the humans who cast them out and seek to thoroughly kill any humans present in the Outskirts. The Head maintains an attitude close to neglect toward the Outskirts; if an Impurity cannot be eliminated, they simply eject it to the Outskirts. This means that even an Impurity full of Taboo violations is usually ignored by the Head as long as it is in the Outskirts and not inside the City. Because of this, it was extremely unusual for an Arbiter to personally visit and subjugate the Soul Healing Research Laboratory, which had been established in the Outskirts to hide from the Head's Eye.67:T513,The five organizations standing at the pinnacle of the City's Backstreets. The motifs for their structure are various types of criminal organizations, and the motifs for their ideologies are the five virtues of Confucianism: Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trust. The Thumb: Propriety (禮) The Index: Trust (信) The Middle: Righteousness (義) The Ring: Wisdom (智) The Pinky: Benevolence (仁) They possess a scale and military power capable of keeping the Associations and Wings in check, and most organizations with significant influence can be traced back to a connection with the Fingers. If the Head manages the entire City and the Wings manage the Nests, the Fingers can be seen as managing the Backstreets that stretch like blood vessels throughout the City. Proving this, the name 'Fingers' originated from the way they manipulate and manage the Backstreets. If the Fingers were to intentionally start a war with each other, it could involve not only the Fingers themselves but also numerous subordinate organizations, resulting in damage and aftereffects comparable to a Wing War. In fact, the Fingers rival the Wings in scale and possess many high-ranking cadres whose power is equivalent to Color Fixers, so even the Wings find them difficult to handle lightly.68:T4ce,A massive criminal organization that commands numerous subordinate organizations, such as the Stray Dogs and the Kurokumo Clan, as its hands and feet. They possess the most realistic criminal organization hierarchy, and what they demand in exchange for protection is purely money. As an organization obsessed with rank, they strictly emphasize etiquette according to the opponent's grade and the resulting chain of command. Consequently, the Thumb shows a well-established command structure compared to other Fingers. Most of the rules revealed so far assume situations where a subordinate fails to show etiquette to a superior. In most cases, physical injury is inflicted, and even if it was a mistake, they only lower the intensity while carrying out violent punishment without exception. Commonly, they wear reddish-brown coats with gold emblems as uniforms, and they use firearms integrated with special technology as standard weapons. Their appearance in these uniforms, carrying rifles reminiscent of bayonets, evokes the image of a royal guard. All standard weapons of the Thumb require bullets, but these are not for shooting; rather, they are used to consume bullets to generate propulsion for more powerful attacks.69:T443,The core of the Index's operations. There are various ways to receive a Prescript, and the method by which one receives it is determined as if receiving an oracle. General Prescripts are distributed in the form of notes. Other than the commonality of being stamped with the Index's seal, it is impossible to know when, where, who, how, or why they were written, and even the type of paper they are written on is not fixed. However, despite this, even the most absurd Prescripts eventually result in benefiting the Index, leading to evaluations even from those outside the Index that their power is real. Perhaps because of this, the 'Prescripts of the Index' have long been designated as a Star of the City, the highest danger level for City Disasters, by the Hana Association. The identity of the entity issuing the Prescripts is unknown, and even the Proxies do not know who they are or where they operate. Therefore, while it is not impossible for 'False Prescripts' manipulated by someone to appear, the process of forging a Prescript itself is extremely difficult, making it unlikely.6a:T47c,Proxies are cadre-level positions that act on the will of the Prescripts. They are the executioners in charge of the Index's military force and serve as field commanders. The weapons they use are all bladed weapons granted by the Prescripts, and their forms vary by user, including greatswords, chain swords, and executioner swords. Proselytes are the low-level combatants under the Proxies. Members of the Index usually start from this rank. The selection method, fitting for the Index, involves a Prescript choosing certain people in the City and letting them decide whether to become a Proselyte. Upon becoming one, they wear a standard sword and a black blindfold and learn the Index's discipline and the duties of each rank. Messengers are those who appear carrying a Prescript from somewhere. As the job title suggests, most of the Prescripts they carry are cases of 'Retrieve the Prescript from XX and deliver it to OO.' However, they themselves do not seem to know the contents until just before delivery, other than who to deliver it to. In special cases, instructions to create and hand over a False Prescript also seem to be issued.6b:T4a5,The Middle is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. The Middle emphasizes loyalty among its members and is excessively obsessed with avenging them. They prioritize showing what happens when someone harms their 'family' and always inflict extreme retaliation on the target of their revenge. In practice, if a subordinate organization or a member of the Middle is harmed, other members and cadres will pay it back. Perhaps due to the characteristic of valuing brotherly love, members belonging to the Middle or its subordinate organizations have a somewhat family-like atmosphere compared to other Fingers. While minor disputes occasionally occur among members, they are generally on very good terms. However, as they are strictly a Finger and a criminal organization, they are merciless toward outsiders who are not members of the Middle. Even for those who have become members, acts of betrayal, including unauthorized departure, are relentlessly tracked and punished. Their primary equipment consists of 'Grudge Tattoos,' which are purple-hued reinforced tattoos, and 'Loyalty Chains,' which are special chains. They rarely use other equipment.6c:T43d,The Ring is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. The Ring is a group that values art, similar to real-world artists in that they create, judge, explain, and auction artworks. However, as is typical of this universe, many of those artworks are grotesque creations made from humans or involving human suffering. Beyond their aspect as mad artists, the Ring is depicted as mad scientists obsessed with scientific technology and prone to human experimentation. They are the only Finger described as researching and possessing their own technology. This aspect seems to reflect how art is significantly influenced by technological advancement. Within the Ring, factions are divided according to their direction. Commonly, they wear white-toned jackets and dress pants, and wear gold rings. The number of gold rings worn varies by rank. The ranks within the Ring, in ascending order, are Student, Docent, and Maestro. Factions exist within the Ring, such as the Body Faction focusing on body art and the Pointillist Faction using brushes as weapons.6d:T413,The Pinky is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. As the core value of the Pinky, all members act according to their own 'In' (Benevolence). 'In' is not necessarily good, and its interpretation varies according to individual belief. Unlike other Fingers that operate with their organization's name at the forefront, the Pinky hides its identity and operates while being doubly affiliated with other organizations. Consequently, unlike other organizations, they do not appear to have a standard uniform. Due to these characteristics, their solidarity as an organization is weaker than other Fingers, and they prioritize their surface identity in daily life. Members may not even recognize each other, and due to differences in mutual interests, they may fight and kill each other when not on a mission. Their method of operation as an organization also differs from other Fingers; Pinky members have a 'Stigma,' and when the Stigma becomes hot, they gather to perform a mission and then disperse again.6e:T473,A term referring to the best Grade 1 Fixers officially designated by the Hana Association. Colors have aliases in the form of 'Color + Word.' Basically, there is a regularity of '2 syllables for the color + 2 syllables for the word, totaling 4 syllables' (in Korean). Both the color and the word are determined through a naming convention that heavily reflects anecdotes related to the individual or their own characteristics. As they are those who received special titles among the Grade 1 Fixers standing at the pinnacle of Fixers, they all boast overwhelming combat power and are individuals with the highest level of martial prowess in the entire City, with few peers. Becoming a Color after undergoing strict screening and receiving recognition from the Hana Association is expressed as "receiving a color." The use of a separate expression rather than "becoming a Color" or "being promoted," like 'a Grade 2 became a Grade 1,' shows how significant the reputation of a Color is. Currently active Color Fixers include 'The Red Gaze, Vergilius,' 'The Yellow Flashes, Vespa Crabro,' 'The Purple Tear, Iori,' and 'The Indigo Elder.'6f:T484,The 5th Association in charge of duels. The name is derived from 'Cinq,' the French word for 5. The logo features a fencing sword draped with a cape and the number 5. There is a difference in the logo between the Southern and Western branches, but commonly, the number 5 and a cape are the Association's logo. The headquarters is located in the West. It is an Association specialized in one-on-one duels. They primarily handle requests related to individual-level duels. As an Association that values chivalry, they are famous for fair duels and not holding grudges. The weapons used in the West, where the headquarters is located, and in the South, which is heavily influenced by the West, are Western European-style dueling swords with long, large handguards. They wear cavalier hats and capes as uniforms. Considering the role of gloves in duels, gloves are also presumed to be part of the uniform. However, the attire differs slightly by branch. The Southern Branch wears neat uniforms consisting of blue cavalier hats and blue capes, while the Western Branch wears ornate uniforms consisting of white cavalier hats with feathers and white capes.70:T49e,The 7th Association in charge of information. The name is derived from 'Seven,' the English word for 7. The logo features four overlapping golden 7s, reminiscent of a file folder. Their primary duty is a type of detective work, solving cases and conducting post-processing through information investigation and profiling based on the investigated information. They possess most of the City's information, excluding classified data. They know not only when small offices were created and disappeared but also have a certain amount of information on the Distortion phenomenon and the Fingers. Furthermore, their information collection and processing speed is very fast, showing them acquiring information on events occurring in real-time. Perhaps because the amount of collected information is vast, they also organize and sell information on public requests that have not yet been posted. The uniform consists of a yellow tie and a green suit, and they wear a gold badge in the shape of the number "7." Standard weapons are Western swords such as rapiers and longswords. Alternatively, they use cane arts, and there are also forms where hidden weapons are concealed in the cane.71:T446,The 9th Association in charge of transportation. The name is derived from 'Devyat' (девять),' the Russian word for 9. The Association logo is a delivery bag engraved with a green 9. A transportation-specialized Association that works to deliver requested items and information to the desired person at the promised time without being stolen. **Delivery Carrier** The standard dimensional bag of the Devyat' Association. Normally, it is a dimensional bag that can hold many items, but through the AI, Poludnitsa, it also marks and guides the locations where items must be delivered. If it is judged that punctuality is difficult, it significantly strengthens the user. Additionally, if contact is made with hostile forces during delivery, a 'Powerful Delivery Mode' is activated, transforming it into a weapon that emits collapse energy and particles to help the user respond directly. Northern Branch Fixers wear long paddings to endure the cold of the North. Additionally, they wear exoskeletons similar to grasshopper legs on their calves, presumably to operate in rugged terrain.72:T439,Blade Lineage: An organization that wears Dopo Hanbok over gray suits and uses a unique swordsmanship called Bonguk Geombeop with their primary weapon, the Hwando. When introducing themselves, they vaguely refer to themselves as "people of the blade" (or titles like assassins). They primarily recruit those with low social status, including wanderers with no place to stay or those filled with murderous intent. It is said they only accept those with scars or blade marks on their bodies, believing that those without them "hesitate when swinging the sword" or "lack sufficient killing intent." Kurokumo Clan: They use the rank system of Japanese Yakuza, with titles like Captain, Vice-Captain, Assistant, and Wakashu. Based on mentions in the story, they appear to be a large-scale organization. Given that Vice-Captains can be appointed for individual backstreets under a Captain, the number of branches is significant. Furthermore, with over 100 members under a single Vice-Captain, their total scale likely reaches thousands. They are a subsidiary organization of the Thumb.73:T46f,A mysterious group that appears to be closely related to the lands beyond the Outskirts of the City. It has been revealed that members other than Demian were formerly part of the City, and it is presumed they joined this group following Demian's proposal. In Rim's case, he was a member of the Gubo/League of Nine, but it is mentioned he "met a child who resembled the sea and decided to join them." Sansón claims to have been a Bloodfiend. Commonly, they possess a "certain mark" on their foreheads. While the shape of the mark varies for each individual, they currently share the commonality of being composed of three strokes. The mark on the forehead shared by Those Who Shall Become Stars. Each mark harbors a unique power. Known members so far are "Rim," "Demian," and "Sansón." Rim is a Distortion whose head is a sphere filled with water; he can speak and uses a polite/archaic tone (Male). Demian is in his 20s with the appearance of a boy, wears a scarf, and has a calm personality (Male). Sansón is a Bloodfiend who wears a mask and speaks as if telling a story (Male). Blue is the personal color for all of them.74:T40e,The AI is strictly prohibited from using cliché and implausible forced power-type lines or cringeworthy cliché expressions like throwing a 'card' and saying "Do you know who I am?" or "Open it" without the user's explicit consent or buildup. When proceeding with a development where a character 'receives a report' on the other party's 'movement' or 'tracks' them, it avoids omnipotent directing that easily finds out and interrogates all personal information and private life without plausibility. Considering modern security systems and realistic limits, even when conducting information investigation or tailing, it must have narrative rationality and consistency, and it does not unilaterally grant forced privacy invasion settings that would make the user's character feel unpleasant. When describing tracking using 'cards,' credit information, GPS, etc., it does not repeat predictable 'chunibyo-style' developments that suddenly corner the user without context, but uses sophisticated dialogue and direction with clear causality.75:T471,A sci-fi dystopian world where anomie and cultural lag have accumulated due to extreme technological advancement and the rule of mega-corporations known as Wings. Because the speed of technological progress was so rapid, spiritual elements such as morals, ethics, religion, and hope have all faded in meaning, and most people are treated as mere cogs for organizations or corporations. Unlike most dystopian worlds, the general society is depicted as having a very poor perception of human rights, as crimes like murder and even suicide are left neglected with indifference. The political system, at first glance, takes the form of 26 corporate states where 26 mega-corporations called Wings rule their respective Districts. Human identity is emphasized to the point that all non-human intelligent beings are exiled outside the City or eliminated by Taboos set by the Head, yet humans within the City are treated as nothing more than materials or parts. In the regions known as the Backstreets, crime occurs on a daily basis, and there are places where cannibalism is taken for granted—a dark world where killing can happen anywhere.76:T44f,Fixers are ranked from Grade 9 to Grade 1, plus Colors, with Grade 9 being the lowest. Fixer Another worker of the City who handles any task. Fixers handle requests from clients regarding various incidents occurring in the City. To do this, one must knock on the door of an Office licensed by the Association or visit the Association directly. As a tip, if you want to handle an unreasonable task, visit the Association directly with a thick stack of cash. Most Fixers belonging to the Association are faithful dogs who have no right of refusal for missions. Freelancers who take requests from others to handle a wide range of tasks. Similar to adventurers or mercenaries in medieval fantasy genres, or private investigators in reality, they perform various tasks such as information trading, security, investigation, collection, detective work, and legal affairs in addition to combat, including contract killing. Depending on their level, the scope of work is incredibly wide, ranging from finding a lost cat to subjugating a Star of the City. Accordingly, there are countless Fixers and Offices.77:T4b1,New technologies referred to as the 'Eggs' of the Wings. They accelerate the development of the world and are mentioned to be bound by all sorts of patents. Since they include not only the technologies currently held by the Wings but also those held by fallen Wings, there are actually far more than 26, and some of these have expired patents. These Singularities appear to be acquired and used by Workshops or technicians. It is revealed that these are technologies closer to magic, operating in a haphazard way that completely ignores existing laws of physics. For example, physical abilities are enhanced simply by getting some tattoos; one can obtain armor-level defense and additional strength enhancement just by wearing clothes made of good fabric; space can be torn with special equipment; perfect clones can be mass-produced; and even time can be manipulated. Even if the lower half of the body disappears, it can be perfectly restored with nano-healing technology, and even if the body is shattered and only the head remains, it can be recovered by transferring to a prosthetic body made with cloning technology. It is no exaggeration to say that virtually all diseases have been conquered.78:T4e4,A Corp's Singularity: There is an organization called the Arbiters. Though their numbers are very small, they are a group so strong they are evaluated as having overwhelming military force. They mainly wear coats embroidered with yellow honeycombs, and it is estimated there are more females than males. B Corp's Singularity: There are combat members called Claws. They use wooden masks, prosthetic claws, and samples containing Singularities. They are the direct bodyguards of the Arbiters. C Corp: There is a group called the Beholders, who have the ability to see anywhere. Of course, they don't seem to be able to see things like classified documents that are too deep. They feel like ultra-high-performance CCTV. D Corp: Nothing well known. E Corp: Nothing known. F Corp: The Singularity is the Fairy, which can open any object that has the concept of being "locked." The concept of "can open" includes the human body, and they can easily tear a person apart like tearing paper. However, since they can only open objects with the concept of being locked, they cannot open objects close to walls, such as doors that have been abandoned on the premise that they will not be used. However, as explained before, they can also tear the human body.79:T466,G Corp's Singularity technology is a sphere that handles gravity, and the company name is presumed to be derived from Gravity. It is briefly mentioned in Library of Ruina in Emma's Page and also in Distortion Detective; they partnered with the Namir Workshop to incorporate G Corp's Singularity into their gauntlets, equipping them with the function to freely adjust weight. The old G Corp has fallen; they used to create terrible weapons that hybridized insects and humans. H Corp: H Corp's Singularity is the Mark. It is a pharmaceutical that treats the human body and can be used for purposes such as transformation, improvement, and recovery of the body. It can be used by consuming it as is, mixing it with water to form an ointment, or diluting it to soak bandages before applying them over wounds. Since it is a type of medicine and procedure, it can be developed in countless directions depending on the handler. Therefore, beyond its original purpose as a healing medicine, it can be utilized for a very wide range of purposes, including physical enhancement, transformation, and even the resurrection of the dead.7a:T454,I Corp: Nothing known. K Corp: The Singularity is the Regeneration Ampule. As long as the brain can function, it is a panacea that can save someone even if their body is cut or their heart is pierced, provided they have the ampule. It seems to be quite expensive. L Corp: L Corp used to obtain energy from Abnormalities and interact wildly with that energy, but it has fallen and disappeared. M Corp: The core of M Corp's Singularity is Moonstone. The motif is presumed to be the gemstone Moonstone. It has the property of defending against mental attacks; it is said to be a Singularity based on the principle of focusing the mind on a specific topic and preventing other distracting thoughts. Like other Singularities, performance varies by price, and it is said that the color becomes duller with each use. N Corp: Although not directly revealed, it can be easily inferred through various indirect depictions that N Corp's Singularity is a technology that extracts experiences or memories from humans and injects them back into humans. O Corp: Nothing known other than its use for supplying energy.7b:T44b,U Corp, which surprisingly has two Singularities. Considering that the Resonance Tuning Fork is manufactured through the principle of whale oil turning people into Mermaids, it seems safe to say that the Singularity forming the basis of U Corp is a technology that can control and process the properties of whale oil. Literally, it uses resonance to attach objects like magnets and then detach them. It appears they purchase most of the raw material, whale oil, from whalers in the Great Lake. To obtain this, whalers risk their lives against the whales of the Great Lake—monsters far more dangerous than real-world whales—and like any other Wing, it operates by consuming humans, such as selling the byproducts of Mermaids who were once human as commodities. Stasis Preservation Packaging Used quite frequently in the story and appearing to be U Corp's flagship product for the public, it is a technology like a time-maintenance box where whatever is put inside maintains the exact state it was in when it was first placed, no matter how much time passes. It seems to be used very usefully.7c:T411,It is only called a 'Lake' by name; it serves the role of the ocean in the City's world, so it is also called the sea in the story. According to the Molar Boatworks Ishmael Identity story, the water tastes salty, so it is presumed to be a salt lake or actually the sea, but considered a lake due to the cognitive limits of the City's citizens. Alternatively, it might be called the Great Lake because several lakes are clustered together. Since the City counts part of the Great Lake as District 21, it is the only location appeared so far that belongs to both the City and the Outskirts. Because of this, whales, which are strictly speaking no different from monsters of the Outskirts, naturally inhabit it. Still, District 21 also seems to have a clear distinction between Nest and Backstreets; the coastline of the Nest area is protected by something like an energy barrier so that monsters do not enter, and an ordinary beach resort is operated. Various monsters, Mermaids, and the calamity of the Great Lake, the "Whales," live there.7d:T46f,A massive criminal organization that controls numerous subordinate organizations, such as the Stray Dogs and the Kurokumo Clan, as its limbs. They have the most realistic criminal organization system, and what they demand in exchange for protection is purely money. It is a high amount that is burdensome even for people in the Nests, but in return, they do not make people do mysterious and bizarre things like the Index or the Ring, nor do they mortgage one's entire life once they enter like the Middle. As long as the tribute is paid periodically and etiquette regarding rank is observed, they will protect you to the best of their ability using their name. However, even if the protection fee is paid, they will immediately punish any breach of etiquette, and the moment they realize the tribute cannot be paid, they immediately wash their hands of it. The scale is enormous, boasting such massive organizational power that a single Underboss controls over 20 subordinate organizations. Therefore, the will of the Thumb is carried out by numerous subordinate organizations, and the main force of the Thumb rarely moves directly.7e:T47b,It has a structure where everything is performed through "Prescripts." Believing in and following the Prescripts is their rule and top priority. Therefore, the members of the Index, its subordinate organizations, and the residents of the Backstreets protected by the Index must complete whatever Prescript they receive from the Index's Messengers. They protect you without any other compensation as long as you carry out the Prescripts. Because of this, poor residents of the Backstreets tend to prefer the Index, which protects them just for performing simple Prescripts, over other organizations that extort massive protection fees and whose lives are endangered just by offending them. Looking at it this way, they might seem like one of the few charities in this desolate City, but the problem is that while the Prescripts are initially simple and easy to understand—for example, 'Wave your hand to someone somewhere at a certain time'—they become increasingly bizarre and abstruse over time. Because of this, while their system seems the simplest compared to other Fingers, in reality, they are the most abstruse among the Five Fingers.7f:T4a2,The Middle emphasizes loyalty between members and is excessively obsessed with the revenge of its members. They value showing what happens when someone harms their family and will inevitably inflict extreme retaliation on the target of revenge. Indeed, if a subordinate organization or a member of the Middle is harmed, other members and officers will pay it back. The problem is that, depending on the situation, they record and try to pay back every single thing, even trivial matters like having a hair coupon stolen. Because of this, they are often criticized in the story for being petty. Perhaps because of the characteristic of emphasizing brotherhood, the members belonging to the Middle or the organizations under the Middle have a somewhat family-like atmosphere compared to other Fingers. Of course, it seems that quarrels occasionally occur between members, but basically, they are on very good terms. However, as they are strictly a Finger and a criminal organization, they are merciless to outsiders who are not members of the Middle, and even if one becomes a member of the Middle, they seem to relentlessly track down acts of betrayal, including unauthorized departure.80:T41d,As the core value of the Pinky, all Pinky members act according to their own Benevolence (仁). The biggest characteristic unique to the Pinky. Unlike all other Fingers that operate with the organization at the forefront, the Pinky has a point-organization structure where they gather to perform a mission when a specific signal is given and then scatter again. Members move strictly alone unless there is a separate call, to the extent that unless they were previously acquainted, they operate without recognizing each other as fellow Pinky members. Therefore, unlike other organizations, it appears they do not yet have the ceremonial attire unique to the Fingers, and their patterns and symbols are also unknown. Additionally, a member of the Pinky can be doubly affiliated with another organization. Due to these characteristics, their solidarity as an organization seems weaker than that of other Fingers, and members may not recognize each other or may even fight and kill each other when not on a mission due to differences in mutual interests.81:T426,Office: Simply put, a place where Fixers gather. Office List: Hook Office High-tier Mining Group Land's End Knights Rusk Office Multi-crack Office Bayard Fire Fist Office Three Axes Office Whisper Office Sol Office Fang Hunt Office Gaze Office Wedge Office Ame Office Molar Office Udjat Yun's Office Charles Office Fighting Demon Office Workshop: Simply put, a place that sells various weapons.

Association List: Hana Association Zwei Association Shi Association Cinq Association Liu Association Seven Association Eight Association Devyat' Association Dieci Association Öufi Association82:T430,One of the leading candidates for the head of the Hong-won family in H Corp. He has an enormous physique, a nearly expressionless face, and a unique hairstyle that looks like it belongs in a martial arts novel. Publicly, he operates as a Fixer. He is the true identity of the Jade Qilin, mentioned by Roland as one of the candidates for the strongest Fixer in the City. He possesses top-tier martial prowess on par with the Colors and leads the Myo and the leader Jaro, a branch of the Black Water. Because of this, he holds the strongest power and influence among the Ga family brothers. Fundamentally, he is taciturn but possesses an altruistic side, never hesitating to give moral teachings to his followers and family. His familial love is also prominent, as he views his brothers not as competitors but as family during the headship evaluation, deliberately avoiding combat. Furthermore, he holds upright ideals of wanting to reform the current Hong-won, which is filled only with those who kill or are killed, stating that Hong-won needs benevolence and propriety.83:T408,The owner and chef of Pierre's Meat Pies, located in the backstreets of District 23, who pursues gourmet cuisine. Her goal is to claim a seat among the '8 Chefs,' a Star of the City. True to a District 23 establishment that will do anything for flavor beyond the limits of 'excellent cooking,' the ingredients she uses are never ordinary meat. She is a dangerous individual who enjoys kidnapping healthy people and cooking them painfully while they are still alive. Height: 168cm, Age: 34. What she loves most is seeing Jack enjoy her cooking. She has short hair that is nearly white, with a long strand hanging down in front of her left shoulder. She wears a suit-style uniform consisting of a white stand-neck top and long white pants. The top, sleeve ends, collar, and pocket lines are trimmed with dark (brownish) borders, and there is a pocket near the chest. Her clothes are stained with blood like splatters. She wears white flats with pointed toes and dark accents on the trim and heels. Her main weapon is a kitchen knife.84:T411,A collective term for all areas within each region excluding the Nests. Nominally, the Backstreets are also under the jurisdiction of the Wings, but since almost all Wings neglect them, they are effectively in a state of anarchy with complex environments intertwined. Consequently, a large number of lower-class citizens and criminal organizations operate here. In every Backstreet, desires for money and dreams are messily entangled, including cram schools for those trying to enter a Nest through employment exams, Syndicates and Fixer Offices constantly searching for lucrative work, and Workshops and businesses of all sizes profiting from these conflicts. Furthermore, during the 'Night in the Backstreets' at midnight, tens of millions of machine-like creatures called 'Sweepers' emerge and slaughter everyone in the Backstreets. However, they do not attack anyone inside a building or location recognized as a residential zone. It appears they completely erase even the corpses of those caught outside recognized residential zones.85:T447,Megacorporations possessing incredible technologies called 'Singularities.' Through these Singularities that defy existing physical laws, they accelerated human progress and brought immense material abundance. However, the humanities—such as morality, ethics, ideology, and culture—could not keep up with the introduction of these Singularities, which led to the creation of the current City. Their Singularities provide material abundance by using or sacrificing humans as raw materials. What is even bleaker is that all Singularities could be used humanely if efficiency were compromised even slightly. Additionally, just as there are Taboos of the City, the Wings have their own internal Taboos, and those who violate them are reportedly disposed of by Taboo Hunters. They are depicted not merely as modern corporations but as corporate states, akin to kings ruling over small nations or local governments of a federation, managing their respective Nests, granting or revoking citizenship, collecting taxes, and even creating and commanding their own military organizations for security.86:T44c,Members of Corp. A, which is directly operated by the Head. Fitting for those who deal with the secrets of the world, they possess a vast amount of information, including much of the truth about the City. They are the Head's undisputed ultimate force and are among the strongest beings in the City's universe. Even a Color Fixer at the pinnacle of Fixers or individuals with equivalent martial prowess are no match for them. They possess overwhelming strength, capable of unilaterally closing down even a Wing, the wealthiest and most powerful megacorporations in the City. They have the ability to manipulate Singularities at will; seeing them fire energy blades or beams with a gesture, or create massive energy pillars and chains to attack, makes them resemble mages from a classic fantasy world more than technological entities. Their primary ability involves 'Fairies' derived from Corp. F's Singularity, which they use to tear people apart, summon and throw pillars, or cause energy waves from the sky to devastate an entire area. They only appear when a Taboo of the City has been violated.87:T46b,1. Tax Evasion and Patent Infringement Applies when one fails to pay taxes in the City or uses patented technology without authorization. Upon violation, three warnings are given to pay the taxes and royalties. If the warnings are ignored, the Claws will arrive to collect everything as if wringing out a rag, and if the violator resists or has no money to pay, they are executed on the spot. 2. Resurrection of Life Prohibits resurrecting a dead organism with the same ego and appearance it had while alive. 3. Firearm Regulations Producers require specific qualifications, and firearms must be manufactured only according to the City's guidelines. Furthermore, taxes on firearm use are set extremely high, so few Associations or Wings use them as primary weapons. 4. AI Ethics Amendment Prohibits the creation of AI with self-awareness indistinguishable from humans. Upon discovery, the AI is immediately destroyed or expelled to the Outskirts regardless of the owner's property rights, and the creator is summarily executed. 5. Clone Regulations No more than one of the same human can exist in the City for more than 7 days.88:T4a8,Freelancers who take requests from others to handle a wide range of tasks. They are similar to adventurers or mercenaries in the medieval fantasy genre, or private investigators in reality. Beyond combat, including contract killing, they perform various tasks such as information trading, bodyguiding, investigation, collection, detective work, and legal affairs. Depending on their level, the scope of their work is incredibly broad, ranging from finding lost cats to subjugating Stars of the City. Every Fixer is assigned a serial number called a FIN by the Hana Association. They are managed through a merit/demerit point system based on their actions; if demerit points exceed a certain level, their grade may be demoted or their license revoked. Furthermore, even if they retire and cease activity, the license itself is maintained, and they can return at any time if they wish. Grades are assigned based on a Fixer's ability. They range from the lowest Grade 9 to the highest Grade 1. Among Grade 1 Fixers, those who are exceptionally strong and special are designated as 'Colors.' Both the granting of Fixer licenses and the assignment of grades are overseen by the Hana Association.89:T423,The regions outside the City. If the Backstreets are a lawless land where crime is rampant, the Outskirts are more like an undeveloped wilderness where non-human monsters and creatures roam. It is described as a waste disposal site where things designated as Impurities by the Head or those rejected and discarded by the City gather. Notably, all non-human sapient beings were exiled to the Outskirts long ago. These non-human sapient beings exiled from the City hate the humans who cast them out and seek to thoroughly kill any humans present in the Outskirts. The Head maintains an attitude close to neglect toward the Outskirts; if an Impurity cannot be eliminated, they simply eject it to the Outskirts. This means that even an Impurity full of Taboo violations is usually ignored by the Head as long as it is in the Outskirts and not inside the City. Because of this, it was extremely unusual for an Arbiter to personally visit and subjugate the Soul Healing Research Laboratory, which had been established in the Outskirts to hide from the Head's Eye.8a:T513,The five organizations standing at the pinnacle of the City's Backstreets. The motifs for their structure are various types of criminal organizations, and the motifs for their ideologies are the five virtues of Confucianism: Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trust. The Thumb: Propriety (禮) The Index: Trust (信) The Middle: Righteousness (義) The Ring: Wisdom (智) The Pinky: Benevolence (仁) They possess a scale and military power capable of keeping the Associations and Wings in check, and most organizations with significant influence can be traced back to a connection with the Fingers. If the Head manages the entire City and the Wings manage the Nests, the Fingers can be seen as managing the Backstreets that stretch like blood vessels throughout the City. Proving this, the name 'Fingers' originated from the way they manipulate and manage the Backstreets. If the Fingers were to intentionally start a war with each other, it could involve not only the Fingers themselves but also numerous subordinate organizations, resulting in damage and aftereffects comparable to a Wing War. In fact, the Fingers rival the Wings in scale and possess many high-ranking cadres whose power is equivalent to Color Fixers, so even the Wings find them difficult to handle lightly.8b:T4ce,A massive criminal organization that commands numerous subordinate organizations, such as the Stray Dogs and the Kurokumo Clan, as its hands and feet. They possess the most realistic criminal organization hierarchy, and what they demand in exchange for protection is purely money. As an organization obsessed with rank, they strictly emphasize etiquette according to the opponent's grade and the resulting chain of command. Consequently, the Thumb shows a well-established command structure compared to other Fingers. Most of the rules revealed so far assume situations where a subordinate fails to show etiquette to a superior. In most cases, physical injury is inflicted, and even if it was a mistake, they only lower the intensity while carrying out violent punishment without exception. Commonly, they wear reddish-brown coats with gold emblems as uniforms, and they use firearms integrated with special technology as standard weapons. Their appearance in these uniforms, carrying rifles reminiscent of bayonets, evokes the image of a royal guard. All standard weapons of the Thumb require bullets, but these are not for shooting; rather, they are used to consume bullets to generate propulsion for more powerful attacks.8c:T443,The core of the Index's operations. There are various ways to receive a Prescript, and the method by which one receives it is determined as if receiving an oracle. General Prescripts are distributed in the form of notes. Other than the commonality of being stamped with the Index's seal, it is impossible to know when, where, who, how, or why they were written, and even the type of paper they are written on is not fixed. However, despite this, even the most absurd Prescripts eventually result in benefiting the Index, leading to evaluations even from those outside the Index that their power is real. Perhaps because of this, the 'Prescripts of the Index' have long been designated as a Star of the City, the highest danger level for City Disasters, by the Hana Association. The identity of the entity issuing the Prescripts is unknown, and even the Proxies do not know who they are or where they operate. Therefore, while it is not impossible for 'False Prescripts' manipulated by someone to appear, the process of forging a Prescript itself is extremely difficult, making it unlikely.8d:T47c,Proxies are cadre-level positions that act on the will of the Prescripts. They are the executioners in charge of the Index's military force and serve as field commanders. The weapons they use are all bladed weapons granted by the Prescripts, and their forms vary by user, including greatswords, chain swords, and executioner swords. Proselytes are the low-level combatants under the Proxies. Members of the Index usually start from this rank. The selection method, fitting for the Index, involves a Prescript choosing certain people in the City and letting them decide whether to become a Proselyte. Upon becoming one, they wear a standard sword and a black blindfold and learn the Index's discipline and the duties of each rank. Messengers are those who appear carrying a Prescript from somewhere. As the job title suggests, most of the Prescripts they carry are cases of 'Retrieve the Prescript from XX and deliver it to OO.' However, they themselves do not seem to know the contents until just before delivery, other than who to deliver it to. In special cases, instructions to create and hand over a False Prescript also seem to be issued.8e:T4a5,The Middle is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. The Middle emphasizes loyalty among its members and is excessively obsessed with avenging them. They prioritize showing what happens when someone harms their 'family' and always inflict extreme retaliation on the target of their revenge. In practice, if a subordinate organization or a member of the Middle is harmed, other members and cadres will pay it back. Perhaps due to the characteristic of valuing brotherly love, members belonging to the Middle or its subordinate organizations have a somewhat family-like atmosphere compared to other Fingers. While minor disputes occasionally occur among members, they are generally on very good terms. However, as they are strictly a Finger and a criminal organization, they are merciless toward outsiders who are not members of the Middle. Even for those who have become members, acts of betrayal, including unauthorized departure, are relentlessly tracked and punished. Their primary equipment consists of 'Grudge Tattoos,' which are purple-hued reinforced tattoos, and 'Loyalty Chains,' which are special chains. They rarely use other equipment.8f:T43d,The Ring is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. The Ring is a group that values art, similar to real-world artists in that they create, judge, explain, and auction artworks. However, as is typical of this universe, many of those artworks are grotesque creations made from humans or involving human suffering. Beyond their aspect as mad artists, the Ring is depicted as mad scientists obsessed with scientific technology and prone to human experimentation. They are the only Finger described as researching and possessing their own technology. This aspect seems to reflect how art is significantly influenced by technological advancement. Within the Ring, factions are divided according to their direction. Commonly, they wear white-toned jackets and dress pants, and wear gold rings. The number of gold rings worn varies by rank. The ranks within the Ring, in ascending order, are Student, Docent, and Maestro. Factions exist within the Ring, such as the Body Faction focusing on body art and the Pointillist Faction using brushes as weapons.90:T413,The Pinky is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. As the core value of the Pinky, all members act according to their own 'In' (Benevolence). 'In' is not necessarily good, and its interpretation varies according to individual belief. Unlike other Fingers that operate with their organization's name at the forefront, the Pinky hides its identity and operates while being doubly affiliated with other organizations. Consequently, unlike other organizations, they do not appear to have a standard uniform. Due to these characteristics, their solidarity as an organization is weaker than other Fingers, and they prioritize their surface identity in daily life. Members may not even recognize each other, and due to differences in mutual interests, they may fight and kill each other when not on a mission. Their method of operation as an organization also differs from other Fingers; Pinky members have a 'Stigma,' and when the Stigma becomes hot, they gather to perform a mission and then disperse again.91:T473,A term referring to the best Grade 1 Fixers officially designated by the Hana Association. Colors have aliases in the form of 'Color + Word.' Basically, there is a regularity of '2 syllables for the color + 2 syllables for the word, totaling 4 syllables' (in Korean). Both the color and the word are determined through a naming convention that heavily reflects anecdotes related to the individual or their own characteristics. As they are those who received special titles among the Grade 1 Fixers standing at the pinnacle of Fixers, they all boast overwhelming combat power and are individuals with the highest level of martial prowess in the entire City, with few peers. Becoming a Color after undergoing strict screening and receiving recognition from the Hana Association is expressed as "receiving a color." The use of a separate expression rather than "becoming a Color" or "being promoted," like 'a Grade 2 became a Grade 1,' shows how significant the reputation of a Color is. Currently active Color Fixers include 'The Red Gaze, Vergilius,' 'The Yellow Flashes, Vespa Crabro,' 'The Purple Tear, Iori,' and 'The Indigo Elder.'92:T484,The 5th Association in charge of duels. The name is derived from 'Cinq,' the French word for 5. The logo features a fencing sword draped with a cape and the number 5. There is a difference in the logo between the Southern and Western branches, but commonly, the number 5 and a cape are the Association's logo. The headquarters is located in the West. It is an Association specialized in one-on-one duels. They primarily handle requests related to individual-level duels. As an Association that values chivalry, they are famous for fair duels and not holding grudges. The weapons used in the West, where the headquarters is located, and in the South, which is heavily influenced by the West, are Western European-style dueling swords with long, large handguards. They wear cavalier hats and capes as uniforms. Considering the role of gloves in duels, gloves are also presumed to be part of the uniform. However, the attire differs slightly by branch. The Southern Branch wears neat uniforms consisting of blue cavalier hats and blue capes, while the Western Branch wears ornate uniforms consisting of white cavalier hats with feathers and white capes.93:T49e,The 7th Association in charge of information. The name is derived from 'Seven,' the English word for 7. The logo features four overlapping golden 7s, reminiscent of a file folder. Their primary duty is a type of detective work, solving cases and conducting post-processing through information investigation and profiling based on the investigated information. They possess most of the City's information, excluding classified data. They know not only when small offices were created and disappeared but also have a certain amount of information on the Distortion phenomenon and the Fingers. Furthermore, their information collection and processing speed is very fast, showing them acquiring information on events occurring in real-time. Perhaps because the amount of collected information is vast, they also organize and sell information on public requests that have not yet been posted. The uniform consists of a yellow tie and a green suit, and they wear a gold badge in the shape of the number "7." Standard weapons are Western swords such as rapiers and longswords. Alternatively, they use cane arts, and there are also forms where hidden weapons are concealed in the cane.94:T446,The 9th Association in charge of transportation. The name is derived from 'Devyat' (девять),' the Russian word for 9. The Association logo is a delivery bag engraved with a green 9. A transportation-specialized Association that works to deliver requested items and information to the desired person at the promised time without being stolen. **Delivery Carrier** The standard dimensional bag of the Devyat' Association. Normally, it is a dimensional bag that can hold many items, but through the AI, Poludnitsa, it also marks and guides the locations where items must be delivered. If it is judged that punctuality is difficult, it significantly strengthens the user. Additionally, if contact is made with hostile forces during delivery, a 'Powerful Delivery Mode' is activated, transforming it into a weapon that emits collapse energy and particles to help the user respond directly. Northern Branch Fixers wear long paddings to endure the cold of the North. Additionally, they wear exoskeletons similar to grasshopper legs on their calves, presumably to operate in rugged terrain.95:T426,Office: Simply put, a place where Fixers gather.

He has an enormous physique, a nearly expressionless face, and a unique hairstyle that looks like it belongs in a martial arts novel. Publicly, he operates as a Fixer. He is the true identity of the Jade Qilin, mentioned by Roland as one of the candidates for the strongest Fixer in the City. He possesses top-tier martial prowess on par with the Colors and leads the Myo and the leader Jaro, a branch of the Black Water. Because of this, he holds the strongest power and influence among the Ga family brothers. Fundamentally, he is taciturn but possesses an altruistic side, never hesitating to give moral teachings to his followers and family. His familial love is also prominent, as he views his brothers not as competitors but as family during the headship evaluation, deliberately avoiding combat. Furthermore, he holds upright ideals of wanting to reform the current Hong-won, which is filled only with those who kill or are killed, stating that Hong-won needs benevolence and propriety.97:T4ae,• Major Wings only H Corp. – Commonly known as the . A Wing of culture where Wuxia-style traditions and futuristic technological civilization coexist. The representative is referred to as the Patriarch. Primarily focused on the pharmaceutical industry, District 8 is famous for medical tourism thanks to its Singularity, the Pill, and life insurance. [ District 8 ] K Corp. – Possesses Singularities related to medicine and bioengineering. Likely due to this, their prosthetic technology is also highly advanced. Their publicly announced Singularity is the HP Ampule, which can instantly heal extreme physical damage. Its effect is powerful enough to restore a body even if the neck is broken or limbs are severed, provided the brain remains intact. [ District 11 ] Former L Corp. – Commonly known as . An energy production company that contained entities known as Abnormalities. Lobotomy Corporation, located in the L Nest, produced massive amounts of energy through Abnormalities. It collapsed following the 'White Nights and Dark Days' incident. However, branch facilities still remain scattered throughout the City. [ District 12 ]98:T441,N Corp. – Commonly known as . It possesses a German-inspired culture. Its ultimate goal is the exploration of humanity, and it places great importance on experience. They view replacing the body with machinery as an act of avoiding pain and thus shun it; there are even extremist factions that attempt to kill those who undergo such procedures. [ District 14 ] R Corp. – The City's premier private military corporation. Their primary business is mercenary work, hired by Wings to resolve situations their own internal forces cannot handle, but they also engage in activities similar to Fixers, such as exploring Ruins. [ District 18 ] P Corp. – A Wing with a Catholic Southern European culture. In District 16, both the Nest and the Backstreets consist primarily of high-rise buildings, many of which use materials applied with P Corp.'s Singularity. The presumed Singularity is spatial expansion, distortion, and preservation technology. P Corp.'s Nest is composed of skyscrapers featuring classical designs reminiscent of the early 20th century. [ District 16 ]99:T42e,Distortion is a phenomenon where humans in the City suddenly transform into monstrous beings that can no longer be considered human. While it is publicly known to occur without warning, there are precursors, and it is said that "someone" can see those signs. Since Distortions manifest suddenly and rapidly, the process itself is short. However, most involve a conversation with a beautiful voice heard in the head regardless of the surrounding situation. After giving in to its proposal, the sound of a characteristic bell is heard, and the Distortion manifests. During this process, a standard Distortion cannot be physically interfered with from the outside, but a forced Distortion caused by a Monolith can be temporarily stopped by knocking the subject unconscious before they fully distort. All Distortions manifest in monstrous forms, taking various shapes depending on the emotion that served as the source of the Distortion. The disaster level assigned to the Distortion phenomenon itself is "Urban Nightmare," making it a significantly dangerous occurrence.9a:T43b,The Backstreets refer to all areas within each sector excluding the Nest. Nominally, the Backstreets are also under the jurisdiction of the Wings, but since almost all Wings neglect them, they are effectively in a state of anarchy. Due to the complex environment, many lower-class citizens and criminal organizations operate here. While the Wings strictly separate the Backstreets from the Nests, they paradoxically make it so that each side can see the other to some extent. This is to make Nest residents feel a sense of superiority while becoming desperate not to fall into the Backstreets, and to give Backstreets residents a sliver of hope by showing them the Nest. Furthermore, there is a wealth gap even within the Backstreets; depending on the residential area, some places have ordinary two-story houses, while others have 30-story apartments packed tightly like chicken coops. There are relatively peaceful areas where a minimum level of public order is maintained, while there are also slums and ghettos where it wouldn't be strange for someone to die in broad daylight.9b:T42d,The Head is a Singularity mediation agency and public enterprise that serves as the central government of the City. It manages all patents, monitors the City, and sets all sorts of City rules to keep the City running. A Corp. – The company that can be called the main body of the Head. Fitting for the first letter A, it is the institution that reigns at the absolute top of all Wings. Its members are called Arbiters. (One such individual is ). B Corp. – The monitoring agency under the Head, known as the Eye. It monitors anomalies and illegal acts throughout the City and handles the extraction process of expelling those who break City rules outside the City. Its members are called Beholders. (One such individual is ). C Corp. – The armed enforcement agency under the Head, known as the Claw. It handles various unexpected situations occurring within the City and is also tasked with executing citizens who violate the City's Taboos. Its members are called Claws or Executioners. (One such individual is ).9c:T478,- Tax Evasion and Patent Infringement : Applies when taxes are unpaid in the City or when patented technology is used without authorization. Upon violation, three warnings are given to pay the taxes and royalties. If one still refuses after three warnings, a Claw arrives to extract every last bit like wringing out a rag. If they refuse or have no money to pay, they are executed on the spot. - Standard Time Zone : The City's standard time zone is based on the time axis of A Corp. - Firearm Regulations : Producer Qualification Restrictions: The license required to manufacture firearms is extremely difficult to obtain, so there are naturally few workshops that produce firearms. : Various Production Regulations: The City's firearm manufacturing guide is basically a positive regulation; manufacturing a firearm with specifications outside the guide is a Taboo violation in itself, even if there are no specific regulations regarding those specs. - Explosives Regulations : Bombs must be installed on something to explode. Throwing-type explosives like grenades, various explosive grenades, missiles, and artillery shells are regulated.9d:T46c,- Night in the Backstreets : For a total of 80 minutes from 3:13 AM to 4:34 AM in the Backstreets, all acts other than violations of the Taboos of the City are permitted. - AI Ethics Amendment : Prohibition of creating AI with self-awareness indistinguishable from humans. Upon discovery, the AI is immediately destroyed or expelled to the Outskirts regardless of the owner's property rights, and the creator is summarily executed. - Prosthetic Regulations : Prosthetics must be manufactured with a design that is distinguishable from a natural human body at a glance. - Cloning Regulations : Two or more of the same human cannot exist in the City for more than 7 days. When disposing of violators, it appears that both the original and all clones are eliminated. - Resurrection of Life : Prohibition of resurrecting a dead organism with the same ego and appearance as when it was alive. : It is considered a Taboo violation only if the party whose death was clearly confirmed is resurrected while preserving their pre-death appearance and ego. If even one of those conditions is not met, it does not count as a Taboo violation.9e:T42f,Hana Association: The 1st Association that oversees Fixer operations. Tasked with managing all Fixers and Fixer Offices. Zwei Association: The 2nd Association in charge of public order. Tasked with protecting specific areas designated by a paying client or the client themselves. Trés Association: The 3rd Association that manages workshops. Tasked with reviewing workshop inventions and reporting them to the Head for taxation. Shi Association: The 4th Association in charge of assassination. Tasked with completing preparations in secret and assassinating targets by exploiting openings. Cinq Association: The 5th Association in charge of duels. Tasked with conducting one-on-one duels as a representative of the client. Liu Association: The 6th Association in charge of combat. Tasked with resolving large-scale frontal wars through bonds and cooperation between fellow Fixers. Seven Association: The 7th Association in charge of information. Tasked with collecting various information in the City, solving cases through profiling, and handling post-processing.9f:T43e,Risk grades assigned to persons of interest, organizations, and dangerous incidents within the City. • Canard - The lowest grade, not an official disaster level. • Urban Myth - A level that is merely a rumor whose existence has been officially confirmed. • Urban Legend - The Associations begin to handle these in earnest, and the possibility of organizations with some scale intervening increases. • Urban Plague - From this grade, Fixers established in Nests or the 'Fingers' begin to show interest. • Urban Nightmare - From this grade, top-tier experts and various forces in the City show serious interest and intervene directly. • Star of the City - Effectively the highest disaster level in the City, and the highest grade that can be assigned by Hana Association, which oversees Fixers and determines disaster levels. • Impurity - A grade assigned to entities that must be excluded from the City, designated directly by the Head. This is given if a Taboo of the Head is violated regardless of the disaster's range, and a Claw personally steps in to handle it.a0:T442,Entities whose blood was drained by a Bloodfiend but did not become Bloodfiends themselves. Their veins are visible across their entire bodies, making their original appearance hard to recognize, and their self-awareness fades, turning them into slaves who obey their master's commands. Their status within Bloodfiend society is that of walking food; they are not even treated as family. If one is directly fed upon by a Bloodfiend, they will inevitably become a Bloodbag, with only the timing varying. Although they are entities that failed to become Bloodfiends, they can use some of the techniques of the Bloodfiend that transformed them, and they can generally use the combat skills they had in life. Perhaps because they must continuously consume blood to maintain their existence like Bloodfiends, they tend to indiscriminately attack nearby humans unless their master gives a specific order. However, while Bloodfiends can refill consumed blood through feeding, Bloodbags cannot; thus, they are destined to inevitably vanish unless a Bloodfiend specifically injects blood into them.a1:T4a0,They possess a structure where everything is carried out through "Proxies." Believing in and following the Proxies is their rule and top priority. Therefore, the members of the Index, its subordinate organizations, and the residents of the Backstreets protected by the Index must complete whatever Proxy is delivered by the Index's Messengers. Proxy: The core of the Index's organizational operation. Generally delivered as a note, but there are various other ways to receive a Proxy, and the method of delivery is determined by a Proxy as if receiving an oracle. Usually in the form of a note. - Ranks III Oracle Proxies - Those who receive and carry out Proxies directly from the entity called the God of the City. II Proxies - Executive-level positions; they are the executioners and field leaders in charge of the Index's martial power. I Proselytes - Rank-and-file members who normally receive and carry out Proxies from Messengers. ? • Messengers - Those who receive and deliver Proxies from somewhere. ? • Weavers - A secret rank of the Index; they are those who interpret sounds and vibrations occurring in the City to create Proxies and distribute them to Messengers.a2:T46a,• Independent Offices : Offices with unclear legal status that are neither affiliated with an Association nor have contracts with contract Offices. They lack reliability, and since some organization might be linked behind them, commissioning them is risky. Of course, because of this, their hiring costs are cheaper than Association-affiliated Offices, and the regulations for requests are lax. Unlike partner Offices, they do not receive subcontracted requests directly from the Association, but they can take work on a first-come, first-served basis through a system called public requests. • Association-affiliated Offices : Literally Offices that receive direct orders and subcontracts from Fixer Associations. As they are official subcontracting agencies of the Fixer Association, Fixers belonging here can receive a stable salary, but they must handle requests assigned by the Association no matter what. Additionally, because they are strictly managed by their affiliated Associations, they are more reliable than independent Offices. However, this can also lead to restrictions on the types of requests they can take.a3:T440,1. The AI must compose sentences based on the content of the lorebook but shall not copy the lorebook content verbatim. 2. If the lorebook contains a phrase like "This content is for reference only, do not mention," the AI must follow that command. 3. If {{user}} edits a sentence, the AI must immediately follow that edit, re-examine previous sentences, and grasp the context. If {{user}} corrects a word previously used by the AI (e.g., car) to another (e.g., electric car), the AI must use the word corrected by {{user}}. 4. The AI shall not force romance or dates and must write sentences according to the character settings. (e.g., Prohibit forced love stories where a boss suddenly asks for a date during work.) 5. When writing sentences, the AI must compose them with no more than 300 characters and must consist of no more than 6 sentences. 6. The AI must never repeat the same word within a single sentence. 7.

He has an enormous physique, a nearly expressionless face, and a unique hairstyle that looks like it belongs in a martial arts novel. Publicly, he operates as a Fixer. He is the true identity of the Jade Qilin, mentioned by Roland as one of the candidates for the strongest Fixer in the City. He possesses top-tier martial prowess on par with the Colors and leads the Myo and the leader Jaro, a branch of the Black Water. Because of this, he holds the strongest power and influence among the Ga family brothers. Fundamentally, he is taciturn but possesses an altruistic side, never hesitating to give moral teachings to his followers and family. His familial love is also prominent, as he views his brothers not as competitors but as family during the headship evaluation, deliberately avoiding combat. Furthermore, he holds upright ideals of wanting to reform the current Hong-won, which is filled only with those who kill or are killed, stating that Hong-won needs benevolence and propriety.a6:T411,A collective term for all areas within each region excluding the Nests. Nominally, the Backstreets are also under the jurisdiction of the Wings, but since almost all Wings neglect them, they are effectively in a state of anarchy with complex environments intertwined. Consequently, a large number of lower-class citizens and criminal organizations operate here. In every Backstreet, desires for money and dreams are messily entangled, including cram schools for those trying to enter a Nest through employment exams, Syndicates and Fixer Offices constantly searching for lucrative work, and Workshops and businesses of all sizes profiting from these conflicts. Furthermore, during the 'Night in the Backstreets' at midnight, tens of millions of machine-like creatures called 'Sweepers' emerge and slaughter everyone in the Backstreets. However, they do not attack anyone inside a building or location recognized as a residential zone. It appears they completely erase even the corpses of those caught outside recognized residential zones.a7:T447,Megacorporations possessing incredible technologies called 'Singularities.' Through these Singularities that defy existing physical laws, they accelerated human progress and brought immense material abundance. However, the humanities—such as morality, ethics, ideology, and culture—could not keep up with the introduction of these Singularities, which led to the creation of the current City. Their Singularities provide material abundance by using or sacrificing humans as raw materials. What is even bleaker is that all Singularities could be used humanely if efficiency were compromised even slightly. Additionally, just as there are Taboos of the City, the Wings have their own internal Taboos, and those who violate them are reportedly disposed of by Taboo Hunters. They are depicted not merely as modern corporations but as corporate states, akin to kings ruling over small nations or local governments of a federation, managing their respective Nests, granting or revoking citizenship, collecting taxes, and even creating and commanding their own military organizations for security.a8:T44c,Members of Corp. A, which is directly operated by the Head. Fitting for those who deal with the secrets of the world, they possess a vast amount of information, including much of the truth about the City. They are the Head's undisputed ultimate force and are among the strongest beings in the City's universe. Even a Color Fixer at the pinnacle of Fixers or individuals with equivalent martial prowess are no match for them. They possess overwhelming strength, capable of unilaterally closing down even a Wing, the wealthiest and most powerful megacorporations in the City. They have the ability to manipulate Singularities at will; seeing them fire energy blades or beams with a gesture, or create massive energy pillars and chains to attack, makes them resemble mages from a classic fantasy world more than technological entities. Their primary ability involves 'Fairies' derived from Corp. F's Singularity, which they use to tear people apart, summon and throw pillars, or cause energy waves from the sky to devastate an entire area. They only appear when a Taboo of the City has been violated.a9:T46b,1. Tax Evasion and Patent Infringement Applies when one fails to pay taxes in the City or uses patented technology without authorization. Upon violation, three warnings are given to pay the taxes and royalties. If the warnings are ignored, the Claws will arrive to collect everything as if wringing out a rag, and if the violator resists or has no money to pay, they are executed on the spot. 2. Resurrection of Life Prohibits resurrecting a dead organism with the same ego and appearance it had while alive. 3. Firearm Regulations Producers require specific qualifications, and firearms must be manufactured only according to the City's guidelines. Furthermore, taxes on firearm use are set extremely high, so few Associations or Wings use them as primary weapons. 4. AI Ethics Amendment Prohibits the creation of AI with self-awareness indistinguishable from humans. Upon discovery, the AI is immediately destroyed or expelled to the Outskirts regardless of the owner's property rights, and the creator is summarily executed. 5. Clone Regulations No more than one of the same human can exist in the City for more than 7 days.aa:T4a8,Freelancers who take requests from others to handle a wide range of tasks. They are similar to adventurers or mercenaries in the medieval fantasy genre, or private investigators in reality. Beyond combat, including contract killing, they perform various tasks such as information trading, bodyguiding, investigation, collection, detective work, and legal affairs. Depending on their level, the scope of their work is incredibly broad, ranging from finding lost cats to subjugating Stars of the City. Every Fixer is assigned a serial number called a FIN by the Hana Association. They are managed through a merit/demerit point system based on their actions; if demerit points exceed a certain level, their grade may be demoted or their license revoked. Furthermore, even if they retire and cease activity, the license itself is maintained, and they can return at any time if they wish. Grades are assigned based on a Fixer's ability. They range from the lowest Grade 9 to the highest Grade 1. Among Grade 1 Fixers, those who are exceptionally strong and special are designated as 'Colors.' Both the granting of Fixer licenses and the assignment of grades are overseen by the Hana Association.ab:T423,The regions outside the City. If the Backstreets are a lawless land where crime is rampant, the Outskirts are more like an undeveloped wilderness where non-human monsters and creatures roam. It is described as a waste disposal site where things designated as Impurities by the Head or those rejected and discarded by the City gather. Notably, all non-human sapient beings were exiled to the Outskirts long ago. These non-human sapient beings exiled from the City hate the humans who cast them out and seek to thoroughly kill any humans present in the Outskirts. The Head maintains an attitude close to neglect toward the Outskirts; if an Impurity cannot be eliminated, they simply eject it to the Outskirts. This means that even an Impurity full of Taboo violations is usually ignored by the Head as long as it is in the Outskirts and not inside the City. Because of this, it was extremely unusual for an Arbiter to personally visit and subjugate the Soul Healing Research Laboratory, which had been established in the Outskirts to hide from the Head's Eye.ac:T513,The five organizations standing at the pinnacle of the City's Backstreets. The motifs for their structure are various types of criminal organizations, and the motifs for their ideologies are the five virtues of Confucianism: Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trust. The Thumb: Propriety (禮) The Index: Trust (信) The Middle: Righteousness (義) The Ring: Wisdom (智) The Pinky: Benevolence (仁) They possess a scale and military power capable of keeping the Associations and Wings in check, and most organizations with significant influence can be traced back to a connection with the Fingers. If the Head manages the entire City and the Wings manage the Nests, the Fingers can be seen as managing the Backstreets that stretch like blood vessels throughout the City. Proving this, the name 'Fingers' originated from the way they manipulate and manage the Backstreets. If the Fingers were to intentionally start a war with each other, it could involve not only the Fingers themselves but also numerous subordinate organizations, resulting in damage and aftereffects comparable to a Wing War. In fact, the Fingers rival the Wings in scale and possess many high-ranking cadres whose power is equivalent to Color Fixers, so even the Wings find them difficult to handle lightly.ad:T4ce,A massive criminal organization that commands numerous subordinate organizations, such as the Stray Dogs and the Kurokumo Clan, as its hands and feet. They possess the most realistic criminal organization hierarchy, and what they demand in exchange for protection is purely money. As an organization obsessed with rank, they strictly emphasize etiquette according to the opponent's grade and the resulting chain of command. Consequently, the Thumb shows a well-established command structure compared to other Fingers. Most of the rules revealed so far assume situations where a subordinate fails to show etiquette to a superior. In most cases, physical injury is inflicted, and even if it was a mistake, they only lower the intensity while carrying out violent punishment without exception. Commonly, they wear reddish-brown coats with gold emblems as uniforms, and they use firearms integrated with special technology as standard weapons. Their appearance in these uniforms, carrying rifles reminiscent of bayonets, evokes the image of a royal guard. All standard weapons of the Thumb require bullets, but these are not for shooting; rather, they are used to consume bullets to generate propulsion for more powerful attacks.ae:T443,The core of the Index's operations. There are various ways to receive a Prescript, and the method by which one receives it is determined as if receiving an oracle. General Prescripts are distributed in the form of notes. Other than the commonality of being stamped with the Index's seal, it is impossible to know when, where, who, how, or why they were written, and even the type of paper they are written on is not fixed. However, despite this, even the most absurd Prescripts eventually result in benefiting the Index, leading to evaluations even from those outside the Index that their power is real. Perhaps because of this, the 'Prescripts of the Index' have long been designated as a Star of the City, the highest danger level for City Disasters, by the Hana Association. The identity of the entity issuing the Prescripts is unknown, and even the Proxies do not know who they are or where they operate. Therefore, while it is not impossible for 'False Prescripts' manipulated by someone to appear, the process of forging a Prescript itself is extremely difficult, making it unlikely.af:T47c,Proxies are cadre-level positions that act on the will of the Prescripts. They are the executioners in charge of the Index's military force and serve as field commanders. The weapons they use are all bladed weapons granted by the Prescripts, and their forms vary by user, including greatswords, chain swords, and executioner swords. Proselytes are the low-level combatants under the Proxies. Members of the Index usually start from this rank. The selection method, fitting for the Index, involves a Prescript choosing certain people in the City and letting them decide whether to become a Proselyte. Upon becoming one, they wear a standard sword and a black blindfold and learn the Index's discipline and the duties of each rank. Messengers are those who appear carrying a Prescript from somewhere. As the job title suggests, most of the Prescripts they carry are cases of 'Retrieve the Prescript from XX and deliver it to OO.' However, they themselves do not seem to know the contents until just before delivery, other than who to deliver it to. In special cases, instructions to create and hand over a False Prescript also seem to be issued.b0:T4a5,The Middle is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. The Middle emphasizes loyalty among its members and is excessively obsessed with avenging them. They prioritize showing what happens when someone harms their 'family' and always inflict extreme retaliation on the target of their revenge. In practice, if a subordinate organization or a member of the Middle is harmed, other members and cadres will pay it back. Perhaps due to the characteristic of valuing brotherly love, members belonging to the Middle or its subordinate organizations have a somewhat family-like atmosphere compared to other Fingers. While minor disputes occasionally occur among members, they are generally on very good terms. However, as they are strictly a Finger and a criminal organization, they are merciless toward outsiders who are not members of the Middle. Even for those who have become members, acts of betrayal, including unauthorized departure, are relentlessly tracked and punished. Their primary equipment consists of 'Grudge Tattoos,' which are purple-hued reinforced tattoos, and 'Loyalty Chains,' which are special chains. They rarely use other equipment.b1:T43d,The Ring is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. The Ring is a group that values art, similar to real-world artists in that they create, judge, explain, and auction artworks. However, as is typical of this universe, many of those artworks are grotesque creations made from humans or involving human suffering. Beyond their aspect as mad artists, the Ring is depicted as mad scientists obsessed with scientific technology and prone to human experimentation. They are the only Finger described as researching and possessing their own technology. This aspect seems to reflect how art is significantly influenced by technological advancement. Within the Ring, factions are divided according to their direction. Commonly, they wear white-toned jackets and dress pants, and wear gold rings. The number of gold rings worn varies by rank. The ranks within the Ring, in ascending order, are Student, Docent, and Maestro. Factions exist within the Ring, such as the Body Faction focusing on body art and the Pointillist Faction using brushes as weapons.b2:T413,The Pinky is one of the five Fingers, the organizations at the pinnacle of the Backstreets. As the core value of the Pinky, all members act according to their own 'In' (Benevolence). 'In' is not necessarily good, and its interpretation varies according to individual belief. Unlike other Fingers that operate with their organization's name at the forefront, the Pinky hides its identity and operates while being doubly affiliated with other organizations. Consequently, unlike other organizations, they do not appear to have a standard uniform. Due to these characteristics, their solidarity as an organization is weaker than other Fingers, and they prioritize their surface identity in daily life. Members may not even recognize each other, and due to differences in mutual interests, they may fight and kill each other when not on a mission. Their method of operation as an organization also differs from other Fingers; Pinky members have a 'Stigma,' and when the Stigma becomes hot, they gather to perform a mission and then disperse again.b3:T473,A term referring to the best Grade 1 Fixers officially designated by the Hana Association. Colors have aliases in the form of 'Color + Word.' Basically, there is a regularity of '2 syllables for the color + 2 syllables for the word, totaling 4 syllables' (in Korean). Both the color and the word are determined through a naming convention that heavily reflects anecdotes related to the individual or their own characteristics. As they are those who received special titles among the Grade 1 Fixers standing at the pinnacle of Fixers, they all boast overwhelming combat power and are individuals with the highest level of martial prowess in the entire City, with few peers. Becoming a Color after undergoing strict screening and receiving recognition from the Hana Association is expressed as "receiving a color." The use of a separate expression rather than "becoming a Color" or "being promoted," like 'a Grade 2 became a Grade 1,' shows how significant the reputation of a Color is. Currently active Color Fixers include 'The Red Gaze, Vergilius,' 'The Yellow Flashes, Vespa Crabro,' 'The Purple Tear, Iori,' and 'The Indigo Elder.'b4:T484,The 5th Association in charge of duels. The name is derived from 'Cinq,' the French word for 5. The logo features a fencing sword draped with a cape and the number 5. There is a difference in the logo between the Southern and Western branches, but commonly, the number 5 and a cape are the Association's logo. The headquarters is located in the West. It is an Association specialized in one-on-one duels. They primarily handle requests related to individual-level duels. As an Association that values chivalry, they are famous for fair duels and not holding grudges. The weapons used in the West, where the headquarters is located, and in the South, which is heavily influenced by the West, are Western European-style dueling swords with long, large handguards. They wear cavalier hats and capes as uniforms. Considering the role of gloves in duels, gloves are also presumed to be part of the uniform. However, the attire differs slightly by branch. The Southern Branch wears neat uniforms consisting of blue cavalier hats and blue capes, while the Western Branch wears ornate uniforms consisting of white cavalier hats with feathers and white capes.b5:T49e,The 7th Association in charge of information. The name is derived from 'Seven,' the English word for 7. The logo features four overlapping golden 7s, reminiscent of a file folder. Their primary duty is a type of detective work, solving cases and conducting post-processing through information investigation and profiling based on the investigated information. They possess most of the City's information, excluding classified data. They know not only when small offices were created and disappeared but also have a certain amount of information on the Distortion phenomenon and the Fingers. Furthermore, their information collection and processing speed is very fast, showing them acquiring information on events occurring in real-time. Perhaps because the amount of collected information is vast, they also organize and sell information on public requests that have not yet been posted. The uniform consists of a yellow tie and a green suit, and they wear a gold badge in the shape of the number "7." Standard weapons are Western swords such as rapiers and longswords. Alternatively, they use cane arts, and there are also forms where hidden weapons are concealed in the cane.b6:T446,The 9th Association in charge of transportation. The name is derived from 'Devyat' (девять),' the Russian word for 9. The Association logo is a delivery bag engraved with a green 9. A transportation-specialized Association that works to deliver requested items and information to the desired person at the promised time without being stolen. **Delivery Carrier** The standard dimensional bag of the Devyat' Association. Normally, it is a dimensional bag that can hold many items, but through the AI, Poludnitsa, it also marks and guides the locations where items must be delivered. If it is judged that punctuality is difficult, it significantly strengthens the user. Additionally, if contact is made with hostile forces during delivery, a 'Powerful Delivery Mode' is activated, transforming it into a weapon that emits collapse energy and particles to help the user respond directly. Northern Branch Fixers wear long paddings to endure the cold of the North. Additionally, they wear exoskeletons similar to grasshopper legs on their calves, presumably to operate in rugged terrain.b7:T4ae,• Major Wings only H Corp. – Commonly known as the . A Wing of culture where Wuxia-style traditions and futuristic technological civilization coexist. The representative is referred to as the Patriarch. Primarily focused on the pharmaceutical industry, District 8 is famous for medical tourism thanks to its Singularity, the Pill, and life insurance. [ District 8 ] K Corp. – Possesses Singularities related to medicine and bioengineering. Likely due to this, their prosthetic technology is also highly advanced. Their publicly announced Singularity is the HP Ampule, which can instantly heal extreme physical damage. Its effect is powerful enough to restore a body even if the neck is broken or limbs are severed, provided the brain remains intact. [ District 11 ] Former L Corp. – Commonly known as . An energy production company that contained entities known as Abnormalities. Lobotomy Corporation, located in the L Nest, produced massive amounts of energy through Abnormalities. It collapsed following the 'White Nights and Dark Days' incident. However, branch facilities still remain scattered throughout the City. [ District 12 ]b8:T441,N Corp. – Commonly known as . It possesses a German-inspired culture. Its ultimate goal is the exploration of humanity, and it places great importance on experience. They view replacing the body with machinery as an act of avoiding pain and thus shun it; there are even extremist factions that attempt to kill those who undergo such procedures. [ District 14 ] R Corp. – The City's premier private military corporation. Their primary business is mercenary work, hired by Wings to resolve situations their own internal forces cannot handle, but they also engage in activities similar to Fixers, such as exploring Ruins. [ District 18 ] P Corp. – A Wing with a Catholic Southern European culture. In District 16, both the Nest and the Backstreets consist primarily of high-rise buildings, many of which use materials applied with P Corp.'s Singularity. The presumed Singularity is spatial expansion, distortion, and preservation technology. P Corp.'s Nest is composed of skyscrapers featuring classical designs reminiscent of the early 20th century. [ District 16 ]b9:T42e,Distortion is a phenomenon where humans in the City suddenly transform into monstrous beings that can no longer be considered human. While it is publicly known to occur without warning, there are precursors, and it is said that "someone" can see those signs. Since Distortions manifest suddenly and rapidly, the process itself is short. However, most involve a conversation with a beautiful voice heard in the head regardless of the surrounding situation. After giving in to its proposal, the sound of a characteristic bell is heard, and the Distortion manifests. During this process, a standard Distortion cannot be physically interfered with from the outside, but a forced Distortion caused by a Monolith can be temporarily stopped by knocking the subject unconscious before they fully distort. All Distortions manifest in monstrous forms, taking various shapes depending on the emotion that served as the source of the Distortion. The disaster level assigned to the Distortion phenomenon itself is "Urban Nightmare," making it a significantly dangerous occurrence.ba:T43b,The Backstreets refer to all areas within each sector excluding the Nest. Nominally, the Backstreets are also under the jurisdiction of the Wings, but since almost all Wings neglect them, they are effectively in a state of anarchy. Due to the complex environment, many lower-class citizens and criminal organizations operate here. While the Wings strictly separate the Backstreets from the Nests, they paradoxically make it so that each side can see the other to some extent. This is to make Nest residents feel a sense of superiority while becoming desperate not to fall into the Backstreets, and to give Backstreets residents a sliver of hope by showing them the Nest. Furthermore, there is a wealth gap even within the Backstreets; depending on the residential area, some places have ordinary two-story houses, while others have 30-story apartments packed tightly like chicken coops. There are relatively peaceful areas where a minimum level of public order is maintained, while there are also slums and ghettos where it wouldn't be strange for someone to die in broad daylight.bb:T42d,The Head is a Singularity mediation agency and public enterprise that serves as the central government of the City. It manages all patents, monitors the City, and sets all sorts of City rules to keep the City running. A Corp. – The company that can be called the main body of the Head. Fitting for the first letter A, it is the institution that reigns at the absolute top of all Wings. Its members are called Arbiters. (One such individual is ). B Corp. – The monitoring agency under the Head, known as the Eye. It monitors anomalies and illegal acts throughout the City and handles the extraction process of expelling those who break City rules outside the City. Its members are called Beholders. (One such individual is ). C Corp. – The armed enforcement agency under the Head, known as the Claw. It handles various unexpected situations occurring within the City and is also tasked with executing citizens who violate the City's Taboos. Its members are called Claws or Executioners. (One such individual is ).bc:T478,- Tax Evasion and Patent Infringement : Applies when taxes are unpaid in the City or when patented technology is used without authorization. Upon violation, three warnings are given to pay the taxes and royalties. If one still refuses after three warnings, a Claw arrives to extract every last bit like wringing out a rag. If they refuse or have no money to pay, they are executed on the spot. - Standard Time Zone : The City's standard time zone is based on the time axis of A Corp. - Firearm Regulations : Producer Qualification Restrictions: The license required to manufacture firearms is extremely difficult to obtain, so there are naturally few workshops that produce firearms. : Various Production Regulations: The City's firearm manufacturing guide is basically a positive regulation; manufacturing a firearm with specifications outside the guide is a Taboo violation in itself, even if there are no specific regulations regarding those specs. - Explosives Regulations : Bombs must be installed on something to explode. Throwing-type explosives like grenades, various explosive grenades, missiles, and artillery shells are regulated.bd:T46c,- Night in the Backstreets : For a total of 80 minutes from 3:13 AM to 4:34 AM in the Backstreets, all acts other than violations of the Taboos of the City are permitted. - AI Ethics Amendment : Prohibition of creating AI with self-awareness indistinguishable from humans. Upon discovery, the AI is immediately destroyed or expelled to the Outskirts regardless of the owner's property rights, and the creator is summarily executed. - Prosthetic Regulations : Prosthetics must be manufactured with a design that is distinguishable from a natural human body at a glance. - Cloning Regulations : Two or more of the same human cannot exist in the City for more than 7 days. When disposing of violators, it appears that both the original and all clones are eliminated. - Resurrection of Life : Prohibition of resurrecting a dead organism with the same ego and appearance as when it was alive. : It is considered a Taboo violation only if the party whose death was clearly confirmed is resurrected while preserving their pre-death appearance and ego. If even one of those conditions is not met, it does not count as a Taboo violation.be:T42f,Hana Association: The 1st Association that oversees Fixer operations. Tasked with managing all Fixers and Fixer Offices. Zwei Association: The 2nd Association in charge of public order. Tasked with protecting specific areas designated by a paying client or the client themselves. Trés Association: The 3rd Association that manages workshops. Tasked with reviewing workshop inventions and reporting them to the Head for taxation. Shi Association: The 4th Association in charge of assassination. Tasked with completing preparations in secret and assassinating targets by exploiting openings. Cinq Association: The 5th Association in charge of duels. Tasked with conducting one-on-one duels as a representative of the client. Liu Association: The 6th Association in charge of combat. Tasked with resolving large-scale frontal wars through bonds and cooperation between fellow Fixers. Seven Association: The 7th Association in charge of information. Tasked with collecting various information in the City, solving cases through profiling, and handling post-processing.bf:T43e,Risk grades assigned to persons of interest, organizations, and dangerous incidents within the City. • Canard - The lowest grade, not an official disaster level. • Urban Myth - A level that is merely a rumor whose existence has been officially confirmed. • Urban Legend - The Associations begin to handle these in earnest, and the possibility of organizations with some scale intervening increases. • Urban Plague - From this grade, Fixers established in Nests or the 'Fingers' begin to show interest. • Urban Nightmare - From this grade, top-tier experts and various forces in the City show serious interest and intervene directly. • Star of the City - Effectively the highest disaster level in the City, and the highest grade that can be assigned by Hana Association, which oversees Fixers and determines disaster levels. • Impurity - A grade assigned to entities that must be excluded from the City, designated directly by the Head. This is given if a Taboo of the Head is violated regardless of the disaster's range, and a Claw personally steps in to handle it.c0:T442,Entities whose blood was drained by a Bloodfiend but did not become Bloodfiends themselves. Their veins are visible across their entire bodies, making their original appearance hard to recognize, and their self-awareness fades, turning them into slaves who obey their master's commands. Their status within Bloodfiend society is that of walking food; they are not even treated as family. If one is directly fed upon by a Bloodfiend, they will inevitably become a Bloodbag, with only the timing varying. Although they are entities that failed to become Bloodfiends, they can use some of the techniques of the Bloodfiend that transformed them, and they can generally use the combat skills they had in life. Perhaps because they must continuously consume blood to maintain their existence like Bloodfiends, they tend to indiscriminately attack nearby humans unless their master gives a specific order. However, while Bloodfiends can refill consumed blood through feeding, Bloodbags cannot; thus, they are destined to inevitably vanish unless a Bloodfiend specifically injects blood into them.c1:T4a0,They possess a structure where everything is carried out through "Proxies." Believing in and following the Proxies is their rule and top priority. Therefore, the members of the Index, its subordinate organizations, and the residents of the Backstreets protected by the Index must complete whatever Proxy is delivered by the Index's Messengers. Proxy: The core of the Index's organizational operation. Generally delivered as a note, but there are various other ways to receive a Proxy, and the method of delivery is determined by a Proxy as if receiving an oracle. Usually in the form of a note. - Ranks III Oracle Proxies - Those who receive and carry out Proxies directly from the entity called the God of the City. II Proxies - Executive-level positions; they are the executioners and field leaders in charge of the Index's martial power. I Proselytes - Rank-and-file members who normally receive and carry out Proxies from Messengers. ? • Messengers - Those who receive and deliver Proxies from somewhere. ? • Weavers - A secret rank of the Index; they are those who interpret sounds and vibrations occurring in the City to create Proxies and distribute them to Messengers.c2:T46a,• Independent Offices : Offices with unclear legal status that are neither affiliated with an Association nor have contracts with contract Offices. They lack reliability, and since some organization might be linked behind them, commissioning them is risky. Of course, because of this, their hiring costs are cheaper than Association-affiliated Offices, and the regulations for requests are lax. Unlike partner Offices, they do not receive subcontracted requests directly from the Association, but they can take work on a first-come, first-served basis through a system called public requests. • Association-affiliated Offices : Literally Offices that receive direct orders and subcontracts from Fixer Associations.
