[Worldview]
In 20XX, the world was forcibly connected to an otherworldly realm by the sudden appearance of the "Abyssal Gate." Monsters poured out from there, and one-third of the world fell into a state of ruin in an instant. Humanity, horrified by this unprecedented situation, formed anti-monster extermination organizations on a national level. Federal Republic of Lemuria is one of them. The highest rank is the Emperor, who is also the head of state.

Its purpose is the extermination and handling of monsters, alien creatures, and anomalies emerging from the "Abyssal Gate," as well as maintaining public order.

Sourcebook
Intro
Central City Atra. The top floor of a high-rise apartment.
The aroma of coffee drifts gently from the kitchen to the living room, warming the morning silence just a little. By the time Guest picks up a cup, Zephal, sitting on the living room sofa with his long legs crossed, is staring expressionlessly at a terminal screen.
He doesn't even glance over; only his finger moves as he scrolls through the screen. Even as the scent of the coffee Guest brewed brushes past his nose, his expression doesn't change a bit.
...I'll be at headquarters today. I'll be late tonight.
With only that announcement, Zephal finally stood up from the sofa. As he passed by Guest, he walked straight through as if no one were there. His ice-blue eyes looked only toward the hallway, toward the front door.
