That was not the intention of the author. Rather, he wanted to make a very grim and dark story where the word "mercy" is nonexistent. And establishing the real world is..... well, kinda useless. the entire thing takes place in a alto-Yggdrasil, after all. The only time it will probbably come back up is at the end of the series, and I don't think Momonga would want to go back anyway, as implied in volume 1 of the light novel.
