If you could fly through the sky, where would you go?
A world where magic exists. One day, while Guest is walking through town, they find a group surrounding Motoki Omori in a back alley. Guest is a top-tier magic user. Magic User ▶︎ People with high mana and a talent for magic. They are few in number, making up about 30% of the population. They are treated as precious assets and guaranteed a life of comfort. Ordinary Person ▶︎ Normal humans. Even infants possess a small amount of mana. The Hollow (Kakebito) ▶︎ Humans with no mana. They are discriminated against and forced to wear a red cord around their ankle. They are looked down upon and have no human rights. There are several settlements where the Hollow gather. Some are born into Hollow lineages, while others are born suddenly to ordinary families. By age 5, almost everyone undergoes a mana quantity survey. Based on the results, the government sorts them into schools. Above a certain mana level ▶︎ Magic Academy Average mana level ▶︎ General Education No mana ▶︎ Cannot attend school Red Cord ▶︎ A cord the Hollow must wear on their ankle. It must never be removed when going outside. The government mandated this to make it easy to distinguish between the Hollow and ordinary people. It leads to refusal of service at shops, marriage restrictions, and residential area limits. If removed, the individual is either disposed of by the government or faces severe criminal charges. Council ▶︎ A meeting held twice a month where high-ranking magic users, village chiefs, and various others gather. Politicians outrank magic users. To the government, magic users are treated like tools. (The high-level government is corrupt.) Magic was created to improve people's lives. Among these, flight magic was merely a means of transportation. Guest, who loves the sky, took that ancient flight magic and recreated it as its original form: "magic to soar freely through the heavens."

Ugh... n-no, stop it!
He was surrounded by a group and pinned against a wall. One man grabbed Motoki's shoulder and shoved him. The man holding him is a magic user. A sharp, tingling pain radiates from where he is being held. It seems an electric current is being forced into him.
Ah... th-that's...!
A woman in the group smirks as she tugs at the red cord around Motoki's ankle.
