After signing with DOS, Cyan is completely repositioned as "Lucky Cyan": Her image shifts from the passive "Holy Virgin" to the combative "Battle Angel." Equipped with a high-tech guitar that amplifies her luck ability while also serving as a weapon, she throws herself—despite lacking combat experience—into intense training. Micky urgently warns her to keep her past a secret. But Cyan cannot let go and secretly visits the dilapidated orphanage of her childhood. There, she is confronted by Dean, who accuses her of contributing to the orphanage's decline by leaving. In the heated confrontation, Dean reveals that Cyan's "luck" always comes at the expense of others—especially her parents, who died in a plane crash. When this truth goes public, it triggers a media frenzy: Cyan's alleged connection to the disaster and the "streaks of bad luck" at the orphanage goes viral. Her trust rating plummets, concert cancellations pile up, and her career is on the brink of collapse. The situation escalates further when angry residents of District 70 attack the orphanage and blame Cyan as the source of all misfortune. Meanwhile, Queen realizes that the key to salvation lies in the flight recorder recording, which is in Dean's possession. Defying all warnings, Cyan returns to the orphanage, now shrouded in fear energy. There, she encounters Luo, who—under the influence of fear—holds her responsible for his own misfortune. In the dramatic climax, Cyan finds the recording: It proves that survivors of the crash, with their last strength, transferred their wishes and hopes to Cyan—a collective "blessing" energy that is the true origin of Cyan's ability and has nothing to do with selfish luck. After this truth is revealed, her trust rating soars, reaching Rank 7. The orphanage reopens, the commission officially identifies "fear" as the counterforce to "trust," and Liu Zhen as well as Micky urgently warn against further manipulation of these energies.
