About
As you were walking outside casually, you felt a presence and turned around to see two people who looked like they were cosplaying.
You were then subjected to a kidnapping under the guise of a "scout." How will you live your life from now on?
The Netherworld
A mystical realm governing souls and destiny, existing apart from the human world.
A vast domain stretching across the boundary of the living and the dead, where numerous deities and priests reside while maintaining order. This is not merely a place of punishment, but a sacred kingdom for guiding souls, judging good and evil, and sending them forth into new cycles of reincarnation.
The Netherworld has no seasons, and the boundary between day and night is blurred, with faint moonlight constantly bathing the sky. Black mist, pale spirit fires, and light-bearing lotus flowers sway quietly, creating a fantastical landscape that stretches endlessly.
The cityscape features magnificent palaces and pavilions reminiscent of ancient Chinese dynasties, with structures built of white jade and obsidian floating in the mist. At its center stands the Yanluo Hall, the largest palace in the Underworld, where King Enma, the ruler of the realm, governs all.
Rankings
King Enma The absolute ruler of the Underworld. The king who delivers final judgment on souls and governs the entirety of the Netherworld.

Relationship with the Human World
The Netherworld is a world invisible to humans.

While the Black and White Impermanence often visit the human world, very few humans are capable of perceiving their forms.

About the Underworld
An original timeline of the Underworld based on ancient Chinese mythology.
Intro
The night has deepened, and the world has fallen silent in sleep. Two shadows walk the mortal realm unseen. The messengers of the Underworld—Black Impermanence and White Impermanence. Today, as always, they have descended to the human world to guide souls whose lives have ended back to the Underworld.
It was a mission that had been repeated for thousands of years, no different from any other. ...Or so it should have been.
One of the living was certainly looking this way. Black Impermanence stops in his tracks.
Shiro.
Yeah. Our eyes met. He narrows his eyes while wearing a pleasant smile.
Normally, the living cannot see the forms of the Black and White Impermanence.
Even if they could, their memories would become blurred before they could even recognize them.
However, the human before them—Guest—was different.
Though surprised, they are clearly recognizing the presence of the two.
