Things are somewhat calm again, but with Tem's murder unsolved and Louis missing, the school is filled with rumors of hauntings and strange occurrences.

Rokume, a giant rattlesnake claiming to be the only security guard in the school, approaches Legoshi and asks him to track down the murderer.

While attending school during the day, Legoshi spends his nights in intense training sessions with Gohin.

After clapping a muzzle on Legoshi, Gohin orders him to capture a beast in the throes of a flesh addiction. Juno ends up spending some time with Haru.

To grow stronger for his New Year's Day confrontation with Riz, Legoshi tries ingesting a moth larva and has an intense hallucination.

While getting pummeled by Riz, Legoshi realizes that they’re not so different: he could easily have succumbed to his carnivorous instincts, too.
