As chaos reigns over Salamandra, Black Rabbit uses her authority as Judge Master to put the game on hold and ask both parties to have a meeting. The No-Names try to confirm the details of the game from Pest, who is also the community leader and the game's host, but the rules are confirmed to be just and being followed due to the lack of details. While trying to find a schedule to resume the game, Pest reveals that she is spreading pathogens throughout the city to make people ill, threatening the No-Names to join their community Grim Grimoire of Hamelin if they want to live. Deducing that this is a new community wanting more manpower, Izayoi bends the rules to allow Black Rabbit to participate in the game as well, postponing the game to a week's time. Meanwhile, Asuka is being held captive in a dark cave along with the little faerie. When she regains consciousness, the lost souls of the 130 children that died in the story of the Pied Piper of Hamelin appear asking Asuka to help them end the false lore of the Rattenfänger in exchange for their armour, Dean, if she can make it submit to her in a game.
