Louie Barton has transmigrated into a private hospital anomaly instance. The Anomaly Kin-Binder System activates, declaring the S-rank head nurse his aunt, so Louie assumes he can control anomalies and survive. The main quest is escape; a 90% death rate and a child patient complicate things. Two adult survivors blame the kid, while a Nightwatch member refuses to abandon them and pledges protection. Tension spikes when a patient suddenly clutches their throat and can't breathe, and Louie sees anomalies multiplying. The episode ends with him asking, "Why are there so many anomalies?"
An emergency opens when someone yells for a child to run from an anomaly while an ally promises to hold it off and a system is trusted. Moments later Mr. Barton appears at the hospital, welcomed by security despite having smashed through walls. He scolds staff for their lifeless faces, forces them to repair the damage and perform servile greetings, and demands loyalty. He then orders them to lead him to the inpatient ward because a quest requires collecting hospital fees. The episode ends with staff bracing to confront patients who might refuse payment.
Trapped outside a sealed door and warned they’ll die if it isn’t opened, a group faces an impossible demand: they must collect fees. Newcomers arrive, including a boy, Louie. Mr. Barton orders Louie to stand back while he tests an anomalous security inside. The anomaly enforces payment — it targets a cripple’s good leg and forces a man to shout “I’ll pay!” Observing this, others attempt to use the anomaly to collect, but the person inside resists. The episode ends when someone calls the presence inside “a good one,” leaving the door and the group's next move unresolved.
A man recognized as the Crimson Wraith is stopped by fee collectors demanding 20,000 ghost coins. Broke and desperate, he offers his body as payment. The collectors summon a kidney scalper and a scale, assign market prices: anomaly meat 50 per pound, kidneys 200, and declare they'll take his flesh at 20% off, cutting two pounds as interest with no anesthesia. He panics, offers to pay double and protests his body is full of silicone. An official call orders all anomalies to pay fees; the collectors close in, leaving his fate, immediate organ removal, unresolved.
After receiving the S-rank Mourning Staff and a side quest to inherit a private hospital, Mr. Barton leads his men into the hospital instance. The group spots a surviving kid and a busty woman and decides to lure an A-rank anomaly toward the child so they can escape. Their plan collapses when the anomaly proves too strong and they cannot stop it. Accusations erupt—the men call the child "trash" who will slow them—and they press the trap, abandoning him to the threat. The episode ends as attackers shout, "Brat... die here!" and the boy faces the anomaly.
In a hospital-instance, a kid is beaten for holding an A-rank staff, an instance quest reward. Players mock him, offer 100 ghost coins, and demand the item; he begs and calls for security but is told there's none in the instance. The crowd presses him until anomalies—previously crying—suddenly call him "Mr. Barton" and turn on the attackers, snarling "Feed the men to the dogs." The power balance flips as the bullies are threatened; the episode ends with anomalies demanding more dogs and warning they won't leave attackers whole.
A private hospital instance pulls Nightwatcher Lilian Collier and a young boy, Louie, inside. HQ orders S-rank Nightwatcher Ember Bishop to lead a rescue, and she mobilizes a teleportation team despite warnings about the instance's danger. Contact with Lilian reveals Louie is alive but cornered; she urges responders to tell him not to move because help is coming. Inside the instance someone begins preparing and then calls out, "Louie, are you here to visit me?" Ember's team teleports in as Lilian remains trapped, leaving the rescue in an unresolved confrontation.
An S-rank anomaly appears in the hospital—the head nurse—and staff panic as Anomalous Security refuse to confront her. Louie moves to stop her, even saying he'll risk his life, but is urged to run. The head nurse then reveals herself as Louie's aunt, greets him and declares, "I'll leave the hospital in your hands now." Simultaneously a system congratulates Louie for completing a quest and grants access to a private hospital instance. The episode ends with Louie forced to decide whether to accept his aunt's authority and the instance access or try to stop an S-rank presence alone.
Lilian brings a young boy to the hospital morgue, triggering alarms when multiple S-rank anomalies appear; Ms. Bishop orders retreat but is reported in danger. Hospital owner Mr. Barton arms his men to restore order and demands the anomaly pay for damage or pay with its body. The S-rank anomaly king scents fresh flesh and zeroes in on the boy; teammates say they can't carry him. The boy cries 'Aunt!' as his aunt confronts the fat man who threatened to tear someone to pieces. The episode ends with the aunt facing armed men while the boy's fate remains uncertain.
Ten-year-old Louie Barton tumbles into a hospital twisted by deadly supernatural forces and accidentally triggers the Anomaly Kin-Binder System, a power that does one thing: find his relatives. They are everywhere. The terrifying S-rank head nurse is his aunt. The Crimson Wraith stalking the corridors is family. The Copper Coffin Bride is related. The Gloom Sovereign who rules the underworld is kin. While other players fall, Louie walks through the most feared dungeons with monstrous relatives clearing the path—each reunion bringing new danger. Trust and fear clash as every family reveal becomes a crisis. Two worlds press in, and a child's discovery of kin turns into a desperate fight for survival and identity.
