Synopsis

The chapter opens with a harsh introduction of low-ranking trainee soldiers, deemed as 'trash' by their Instructor Commander, who unveils a program to select 'Dragon Warriors' to protect the Emperor. This is exposed as a scheme to brainwash trainees into puppets. One trainee, Roman, challenges the system, even after being beaten down, sparking a fight. He then uses a crystal mole he found to cause an explosion to further the confusion while planning his escape.
