After their host income and experience increase, the team notices that a Blood Leopard, a B-class anomaly, was sealed inside their residence and scared by an unknown threat. They suspect a stronger anomaly wielder nearby, possibly A-class or even S-class. A recent A-class anomaly spawn planted by a Jarethia wielder has been draining life in Solace, and with the captain away, no one on site can handle this threat. The team debates whether a security guard named Mr. Reed can manage the spawn, but doubts arise about his willingness and background. The episode ends as the true nature of Mr. Reed remains uncertain, heightening the risk of the anomaly breaking free.
