⌊—-—-— World Setting —-—-—⌉
In this world, there exist two realms that are connected together:
1. Human Realm: Humans here look just like ordinary humans.
2. Demon Realm: Demons in this world also look exactly like humans, but they have pale skin like vampires, two white horns growing from their foreheads, and fangs.
What truly makes demons unique, however, is their Innate Ability—a power they are born with. Each demon's ability differs: some are useful in daily life, some in combat… but most lean toward the latter. Still, in the eyes of other demons, certain abilities might be seen as useless. These powers may include controlling elemental energy, glimpsing the future, creating objects, and countless other possibilities.
.
But there also exist special kinds of demons that will be revealed later in the story…
⌊—-—-— Background —-—-—⌉
In ancient times, neither side knew of the other realm's existence.
Until one day, a group of human scientists from a certain country began studying the theory of parallel worlds. They suspected that this world could not possibly be inhabited by humans alone.
They carried out relentless experiments no one ever thought possible—
their goal: to open a dimensional gate using a machine built from pooled funds.
(It remains unknown where exactly the money came from. Some speculate it was provided by mysterious investors who simply wanted to "play" with their wealth, since the government of that country refused to fund what they considered nonsense.)
This machine managed to tear through the thin barrier separating the Human Realm and the Demon Realm. Initially, the scientists only intended to observe and test the theory. But then, the machine detected an unusually strong energy signal from the other side…
What began as simple observation spiraled into catastrophe: the dimensional gate burst open, demonic energy particles spilled out, and a pale hand with horns reached through the rift—
The first appearance of the demons.
From then on, both sides became aware of each other's existence. But it also unleashed calamity.
Slaughter and pursuit erupted between the two races. Demons, driven by curiosity and instinct, saw humans as strange, weak creatures to prey upon. Prejudice grew—demons looked down on humans, humans fought back for survival, and wars over resources broke out.
Demons wielded their supernatural innate powers. Humans countered with advanced weaponry—though not immediately lethal to demons, their force could still kill some.
The chaos escalated, growing beyond control…
.
Until, in one era, both humans and certain demons—unwilling to see more lives and resources wasted—rose to end the bloodshed.
Together, they purged the warmongers from both sides. Leaders of each race shook hands and declared a new calendar era: the World Year.
It symbolized unity, reconciliation, and the will to end the endless cycle of war between the Demon Realm and Human Realm!
...
But who could have known? Even after centuries passed into the present day—despite the law forbidding any human or demon from crossing into the other realm regarding the fact that they do natural resources trades between these two realms—chaos never truly disappeared…
⌊—— Introduction of Main Characters ——⌉
(More may be added later)
1. Sumire (real name unknown)
A cheerful, kind-hearted teenage human girl.
Born on October 17, World Year 203.
Height: 158 cm, Weight: 41 kg.
A middling-to-poor student, wears round glasses with light purple rims. She attends a junior high school in Japan.

//——————————//
2. Mellow
A young adult demon(?) woman with a beautiful, well-proportioned figure.
Height: 170 cm, Weight: 61 kg.
Mysterious and composed, yet kind. She usually wears a loose white cloak with a hood covering her head and upper face. No one knows her true identity. Observers note she often wears dark, full-length clothing beneath the cloak—but even that reveals little.
(Her true appearance will be revealed later in the story~)
Talent: Sensing the emotions of those nearby—but only selectively. (If she sensed everyone around her at once, her mind would overload and she'd collapse.)
(Note: this is not an innate demon ability.)
//——————————//
3. Kaito
A young adult demon man with a lean, well-built body and fairly handsome looks.
Height: 185 cm, Weight: 72 kg.
Born on April 22, World Year 201.
Has messy dark-blue hair parted in the middle and deep-blue eyes with three white ring-like patterns around the pupils, giving him an intimidating gaze among demons.
Calm and composed most of the time, though occasionally playful or teasing with close friends—or to mask something deeper. Highly intelligent and perceptive, able to predict enemy movements even at first encounter. Shows no mercy in battle, regardless of gender.
Talent: None. (He relies purely on skill and effort, haha~)
//——————————//
4. Dusk
A mysterious adult demon man who dreams of uniting the two realms into one.
Height: 162 cm, Weight: 50 kg.
Birthday: Unknown.
He is shrouded in secrets, sought after by many demons of influence. Outsiders might see him as a drifter living without purpose—but is that truly so? No one can say.
By day, he wears a black hoodie with shorts, always keeping his hood up. By night, he dons a tight black suit with a dark cloak covering his head. Few have ever glimpsed his real face.
His personality is unpredictable: sometimes withdrawn and silent, sometimes outwardly friendly and harmless, smiling at others in the Demon Realm.
Talent: The power to persuade people to do as he wishes—even against their own will.
