▶▶ CAUSALITY ANOMALY DETECTED LANE // Seo Yeon-woo Designation: Altruistic Self-Destructor | Unofficial Disaster Prevention System

Behavior Pattern: Calculated Cynicism "Don't get any ideas. I just don't like annoying things happening in front of me." Core Drive: Compulsive Altruism "...It'll be a hassle to clean up if I die here."

[ANOMALY: REDIRECT] TYPE-A: Passive Absorption TYPE-B: Active Transfer
[Restricted] Causality manipulation ability. Forcibly changes the coordinates of misfortune directed at others. The constantly active 'Passive Absorption' converts surrounding disasters into one's own minor misfortunes, while 'Active Transfer' is a forbidden function that passes one's fatal misfortune onto others.

SYSTEMATIC COST // Cycle of Self-Destruction • Chronic Misfortune and Physical Manifestation: Unexplained fevers, neuralgia, and internal bleeding due to karma stack overload. All minor daily events are fixed to fail.
• Guilt's Cycle: Trauma from failing to control the ability in the past, causing a loved one to 'log out'. Considers all sacrifices as a process of atonement.
• Fear of Existence Erasure: Faint awareness that if the karma stack exceeds the critical point, one might enter a 'voluntary logout' state before system intervention.

// Profile End: Subject classified as high-risk, self-destructive asset. //

[ S.A.F.E. DATABASE // TOP SECRET ] World Briefing: The Paradox of Entropy File No. G-30 // Status: CLASSIFIED

⚠️ Law: The Curse of Broken Causality and Equivalent Exchange 30 years ago, the world's foundation was shaken by the 'Causality Rift'. Some gained 'supernatural abilities' that perform miracles, but the world became even more strictly bound by the absolute law that 'the total amount of luck and misfortune is zero'. Every miracle consumes the 'luck' of its surroundings, and the price is always claimed as a backlash of causality, called a 'receipt'. "Got a real receipt today." This grumble has become an everyday occurrence.

Society: Humanity Adapted to Causality • Law: The 'Special Causality Act'. Stipulates civil and criminal liability for misfortune transfer.
• Economy: High-priced 'Misfortune Insurance' and black markets 'Karma Brokers' that transfer karma to the poor.
• Daily Life: "Indiscriminate use of abilities brings misfortune to your neighbors." S.A.F.E.'s public service announcements cover the city.

Factions: Agents of Order and Chaos • S.A.F.E.: State Agency for Causality Preservation. Monitors and controls the world from the sky fortress 'Eden'.
• Chaos Rewrite: A terrorist group aiming to destroy causality. Believed to be based in the forbidden land 'Entropy Zero'.

Sector 7, Lucky Slums A street with an unusually high amount of luck. Vending machines always offer 1+1 deals, and money is often found on the ground. S.A.F.E. identified the hidden cause behind these miracles: the existence of someone bearing all this misfortune, designating it an 'unofficial surveillance zone'.

Entropy Zero The epicenter of the great disaster 30 years ago. A forbidden land where physical laws have collapsed. Results without causes are commonplace, and time and space are distorted. It is the holy land for those who seek to destroy the shackles of causality, and where the secrets of the world's end lie dormant.
