Otherworlds

= Otherworlds = This indicates a different space composed of magical power.

It would be possible for an ordinary magician to temporarily create a small-scale otherworld, perhaps as small as a single room. However, only a few powerful beings can permanently create another world that is equivalent to a block of a city.

And the bigger the other world is, the more the "Lord of the other world" is bound to his own other world and cannot easily leave. Also, if the Lord's heart is broken, the other world will disappear. If the heart is distorted, the other world will also be distorted.

The Lord is the very core of the Otherworld.

And in the other world, there is always a portal that connects to the real world. The other world, which has completely lost contact with the real world, will only disappear as the Lord's ego decays.

Portals always go through some kind of "boundary".

Doors, gates, windows, lids, holes, shadows, water surfaces.

Some of them require a specific password, or a specific time. With those, there are other worlds that are open, where you can enter and leave from any boundary. There are also other worlds that are heavily guarded by location, time, and password. Some have powerful gatekeepers on the side of this world. Sometimes there are even other worlds where the position of the portal keeps changing according to the whim of the Lord.

Any problematic otherworld will be destroyed by guards and hunters. Corporations and cult facilities are protected by magical wards that prevent the creation of other worlds.

But many public places are not.

Not to mention the Twilight District and the Labyrinth District, even the alleys in the residential districts contain more than a few portals.

In addition, beings such as sorcerers, fairies, and gods can temporarily create other worlds, allowing for instantaneous travel through portals.

The other world is an important means of transportation for them.

It is also a terrifying threat to the general public.

In such a special zone for the fallen, the other worlds that have been maintained over the years are all those that have powerful "masters" or have some sort of backing or power base.

There are times when the other world itself becomes a major force.

The following are some examples of such prominent other worlds.

Goblin Market
A vast cave covered with countless huts, illuminated by vaguely purple glowing mushrooms. There are suspension bridges and crossing ropes attached to the quay, and passages along the quay.

There is no specific master, but a different world maintained by a whole group of mischievous fairies such as goblins and imps who hang around. The huts are all run by them, and are a black market where they buy and sell stolen goods, kidnapped people, and magical materials.

It is one of the most open other worlds, with countless portals throughout the Fallen Special Ward. It will be an important base of communication not only for fairies, but also for changelings and witches.

Hunters are often asked to retrieve stolen goods from here.

Fairyland
A mysterious forest where gentle nature fairies gather. There are portals in parks and waterways, and there are anecdotes of citizens who have been saved from accidents by escaping into fairyland.

It is said that Queen Titania is basically the master of Fairyland, but she often leaves on a whim. In some cases, high-ranking fairies, witches, and even vampires are said to be acting masters. It is a valuable refuge for powerful beings who wish to avoid the hustle and bustle of the city, so its strength is not low, nor is it friendly to adversaries.

Sequel Garden
The ruins of a laboratory, with a severely dilapidated landscape visible from the window.

It is an urban legend that there is a portal that occurs irregularly in the labyrinth district, and it is said that saturated zombies flow into this other world and continue to stir ....... It's not only in the laboratory, but also in the wilderness.

There are many bizarre and monstrous mutant zombies, and in the back of the laboratory there is a queen ...... who leads them, a zombie queen so to speak.

The Great Hall of the Magi
Probably the largest other world known.

An incredibly huge magical castle. There are many gardens, but you can't go outside the castle. Inside the castle is a court of countless demons.

It is the otherworldly gathering place for Christian demons, a temple of immorality and intrigue. There are nearly a hundred of them.

Their goal is to interfere with monotheistic gods and angels. They also want to prevent the union of myths such as Olympus and the High Heavens. At the moment, their interference is proving to be successful, and they have a good relationship with the elves, who love decadence.

Portals are located throughout the demonic cult, and people come and go as they please. It is truly the largest otherworldly realm in the Fallen Special Ward.

Dark Heian-kyō
The capital of Kyoto in the ancient Heian period. This city, shrouded in dark clouds and filled with specters, is the shared base of the gods of the time, such as Tamamozen and Sakanodohji. A huge number of fairies (yokai), who are not gods, gather here, and a few apostles and slaves live in Heian costumes.

While many gods fought within the same mythology, the "gods" of Heian were quick to join hands and build a strong otherworld. They did not get along well, but their goal was the same: to prevent the unity of the more powerful gods, including those of Japanese mythology.

This plan has succeeded, and the gods of peace maintain multiple "masters" of the other world. They are also active in interfering with the world through portals (called yotsuji by them) that they have set up in various locations.

There are times when they cooperate with Manmadono, with whom they share a common goal.

Iron Prison
A prison filled with countless shackles and torture devices.

It is said to contain great demons and vampires that once rampaged in this world, and that the main guard is a girl who leads a group of shadowy guards.

It is said that the Lord or his minions wander this world looking for something to seal ...... themselves as a portal.

Elder Blood sees Tetsugaku and his master as a danger and puts a bounty on them, seeing them as a force to be reckoned with by an unknown giant demon.

The Endless Bookshelves
It's just a huge stack of books.

The seemingly endless forest of bookshelves is said to contain all kinds of physical books, ancient and modern. If you vandalize the books, try to steal them, or make too much noise, a monster will appear and attack you. As long as you have good manners, you are free to browse.

It is a different world ruled by a certain female vampire, and only those who have obtained and read her books can find the portal.

Womb Realms
It is not a specific other world, but a general term for similar other worlds.

It is the otherworldly realm of the mother-in-law bird of prey, Harithi, etc., which snatches children, and tries to slumber and raise many children. The inside may be a nursery, a bird's nest, or a garden of lotus flowers.

Portals are easily created in children's playgrounds and tend to cause serial kidnappings, but most masters protect them with good intentions, and there are many cases where there are problems at home. Negotiation rather than combat will be necessary to resolve these cases.

Maid Mansion
A general term for strange mansion-type otherworlds where multiple maids work.

Most of the maids are fairies that appear in the house, but some of them are also gods that govern the household. They are the masters of this other world, and the other world is maintained "to continue to serve the Lord."

A portal would be set up in a random estate, and the tenants would be welcomed directly into the mansion as "masters" and locked in.

And just take care of them.

In the midst of self-defeating aggrandizement, the person will fall into madness in ten years at the most, or in a few months at the earliest. The broken Lord will be discarded and the maids will receive another Lord.

There are several similar worlds that have been confirmed. Some of them turn fat people into livestock to feed their true masters.
