The episode begins with Desir Herrman meeting with Professor Brigitte to apply for the establishment of a new party. He is accompanied by Romantica Eru and Pram Schnaizer, both fellow students from the Beta Class. Desir outlines his ambitious plan to rise to the Alpha Class by winning the upcoming ranking tournament. Professor Brigitte explains the intricacies of the tournament and points out that it is particularly difficult for Beta Class students to achieve this goal.

Desir remains undeterred and argues that his success could challenge the academy's biased system. Professor Brigitte supports the formation of the group but warns them of the difficulties ahead. She explains that the tournament will include both individual and team evaluations, culminating in a final event within a shadow world.

After the discussion, the trio inspects the training facilities. They realize that the Alpha Class has access to state-of-the-art equipment, while the Beta Class is relegated to a dilapidated room. Romantica is initially horrified by the condition of their training space but eventually agrees to clean it up.

Desir then begins conducting individualized training sessions with his group members. He challenges Romantica to improve the accuracy of her wind magic. After some initial struggles, she manages to control her spells more precisely. Desir praises her progress but urges her to strive for even greater perfection.

Meanwhile, Pram is confused when Desir tells him he doesn’t need sword training. Desir questions Pram’s choice of weapon—a greatsword—and suggests that a lighter weapon like a rapier might better suit his abilities. Pram responds that he chose the greatsword because it was a gift from his unknown noble father. However, he has since sold the sword after learning it was worthless, and his faith in his father’s love is shaken.

The episode ends with the team still at the beginning of their training, with each member grappling with their own challenges and uncertainties.
