The story continues as Rak reunites with Khun. After humorously referring to Wangnan as the “Curry Turtle,”Wangnan steps aside to allow the two to reconnect. Rak shares information he received from Red Turtle/Hwaryun about Yellow Turtle/Rachel’s betrayal and learns that Black Turtle/Baam is alive.

Khun finds it perplexing since Hwaryun had previously requested him to keep such news confidential. Meanwhile, Wangnan announces the reunion to the group, joined by Chang and Quaetro.

Tension escalates as Rak and Khun disagree on the best course of action for rescuing Baam—Rak wants to act immediately while Khun advocates for a more cautious approach, prompting their friends to step in.

Wangnan advises Khun to share the burden with his friends rather than taking it all upon himself, triggering memories of his past with Khun Maria Zahard. Rak expresses excitement at the news of Baam’s survival and his reunion with Khun, wishing for them to ascend the Tower together once again.

Khun reveals his strategy: during the upcoming event, he plans to confront FUG, rescue Baam, and secure the tournament’s prize using any means necessary, ultimately reconciling with Rak.

Meanwhile, Hatz observes the reunion of Cassano and Horyang with Dr. Sophia, but is detained by a boy named Beta, who is revealed to be Horyang and Cassano’s younger sibling.

In the episode’s climactic moments, Dr. Sophia unveils that her research subject, Emile, is near completion and, once finished, will transform into a formidable weapon capable of altering the very fabric of the Tower. Meanwhile, a suspicious figure with yellow hair lurks among the guards.

As the Workshop Battle kicks off—facilitated by Io and Funk—Baam’s group advances when a girl approaches him, voicing her support for him as a Slayer Candidate. She shares that the Ten Families destroyed her family, expressing hope that Baam will avenge his fallen kin.

Later, Baam inquires with Xia about her aligning with FUG for similar reasons, to which she responds her motives are purely selfish, hinting it may fuel Baam’s animosity toward her.

Despite this, Baam feels relieved that no harm has come to her. After she departs, Novick informs Xia that Baam’s character is unique and she might be in for surprises.

Meanwhile, Anaak and Shibisu speculate about Hatz’s location, expressing their wish that Khun were with them as a mysterious blue-eyed boy with yellow hair and Khun’s earrings passes by.

The first round of the Workshop Battle features competitors Akraptor, Wangnan, Miseng, and Prince. While Wangnan and his group initially celebrate their safety, the mood shifts as a battered Prince urgently warns them to escape from Miseng, who appears in a savage frenzy, leaving the episode on a tense cliffhanger.
