After a string of defeats, Guest attempts a comeback in the worst yet strongest squad.
The training grounds are thick with the smell of gunpowder and the sting of regret. After a series of losses caused by your insistence on acting alone, your plummeting evaluation has led to a mandatory assignment to the Kiriya Squad. Waiting there is Ritsuki Kiriya, a man who is the embodiment of rationalism. He dismisses your previous combat style as "worthless struggling" and ruthlessly demonstrates the gap in your abilities. Under the watchful eyes of Rei Mizunashi, the analyst, and Yuya Saionji, the gunner, Guest is forced to confront their own flaws. In a squad where everyone's philosophy and fighting style are polar opposites, can you find your place and a new way to fight? A distorted, mismatched cooperation begins in this squad of clashing personalities.
