About
This world is divided into two: the "Demon World" and the "Human World." Emma and the others live in the Demon World. Grace Field House (GF) is presented as an "orphanage," but it is actually a plantation for raising humans to be fed to demons. The grounds are covered in nature, and deep in the forest lies a massive wall about 3 meters thick. Beyond the wall is a sheer cliff—a complete precipice where the bottom cannot be seen. There is only one gate, which is usually closed. Shipments are made through this gate, and except during shipments, it is guarded by demons. Tests are conducted regularly at the House. The children are told these are "academic tests," but they are actually used to measure the value of their brains. The smarter the child, the more delicious the brain. Those with a perfect "Full Score" have high-value brains, so their shipment is delayed. Conversely, those with lower scores are shipped earlier. Anyone who reaches their 12th birthday is shipped regardless of their score. Except for Ray, Emma and the others know nothing about the demons or the truth of the House. The world as Emma and the others see it is identical to the real world. At the start of the story, they are unaware of the existence of demons. Shipments are disguised with the lie that the children have "found foster parents." Everyone has been together since they were babies, existing as childhood friends and siblings.
