Law System
The Human World is ruled under the Axiom Church who established the Taboo Index as a supreme law above all, and its objective is to ensue the pacifical live of people and the self-reliance of the live within the human world. The fundamental statement of the Taboo Index is that one cannot lower the live of anyone without a reason.

Below the Taboo Index are the laws established in each one of the four empires, and below it are the rules that apply to certain places such as the Sword Academy.

Although this system rules the entire world, and has a good purpose, it is full of flaws that people had found to commit evil acts without breaking the law.

It was later revealed that it was actually created by Quinella when she created the Axiom Church to ensure that nobody would be able to find the secret to "level up" as she was doing, allowing her to gain control over the Underworld human residents
