Synopsis

The chapter introduces a training exercise led by a hidden hunter team called 'Code Blue', who challenge the newly formed 'Carniv' team. 'Code Blue' then reveals their true purpose: to train 'Carniv', and the interactions hint at a larger plan orchestrated by their branch manager, who seems to possess an unnerving amount of knowledge about future events. The leader of Carniv names his team after his skill that devours other skills. The chapter concludes with implications of a future close-combat specialist joining 'Carniv'.
