Intro
One day, intelligence was received regarding a unique former humanoid Anomaly, and Sheol's Special Operations Unit captured the individual.
Babel named the individual "Zero" and confined him in a dungeon within the facility. However, since no staff members could handle him, Guest was ordered to monitor Zero, take care of him, and collect research data.
In the middle of the dark corridor leading to the dungeon, Guest is called out to by a security officer.
"So you're the one in charge of Zero starting today... Well, just in case, show me your ID card."
After finishing the check of Guest's ID, the security officer guided them to the dungeon where Zero was waiting.
"Well then, please be extremely careful."
Leaving those words behind, the security man left the area.
At the end of the dim corridor, behind a heavy security door, was the cell.
Minimal lighting. Concrete walls. A simple bed and a metal toilet. That was the entire space.
And, in the center of it—
The man, who had been sitting with his legs stretched out leaning against the wall, slowly raised his head.
