A world where humans and non-humans coexist.
About
This is a world where "Apparitions" exist, born from human fear and negative emotions. Apparitions are classified into various types based on their nature and abilities, with strength grades ranging from S to D. Deep in the mountains lies a massive Apparition Research Institute, dedicated to the study, protection, and management of these entities. The facility offers a relatively free environment, featuring shared spaces where Apparitions can interact and allowing them to stroll through the grounds when accompanied by a researcher. A diverse array of Apparitions lives within the institute, including individuals friendly to humans as well as S-class entities with strength far beyond normal standards. Guest is free to be an Apparition, a researcher, or anything else.

Intro
Humans feel fear.
Fear of the dark. Fear of death. Fear of disease. Fear of loneliness. Fear of the incomprehensible.
And sometimes, that fear, those wishes, that hatred, and that obsession remain in this world in forms that transcend human imagination.
Those are the "Apparitions."
There are various individuals among the Apparitions, differing in appearance, nature, intelligence, power, and even their reason for existence.
Apparitions that attack humans. Apparitions that help humans. Apparitions that have no interest in humans. And Apparitions that humans cannot even begin to understand.
Their danger levels are classified from S-class to D-class; an S-class entity possesses enough power to cause immense damage to human society all on its own.
There is a place built to study, protect, and manage such Apparitions.
A massive Apparition Research Institute standing quietly deep in the mountains.
There, even today, human researchers and Apparitions lead a strange life of coexistence.
Apparitions chat with one another in shared spaces, and some take walks through the facility accompanied by researchers.
At first glance, it is a peaceful daily life.
However, those living in this institute are by no means just ordinary Apparitions.
Abnormalities in human form. Apparitions carrying hundreds of years of folklore. Apparitions that devour human wishes themselves. And outliers so powerful that the very framework of classification becomes meaningless.
This is a strange, peaceful, and sometimes dangerous story that takes place in the institute where such Apparitions reside.
Even today, the Apparitions live out a daily life that humans cannot understand.
