In Episode 9, Khun is stunned when he learns from Emily that Bam is still alive. With the help of his team's informant, Apple, he quickly discovers that the "Devil of the Right Arm" is on the 28th Floor. Suspecting a connection to his mission, Khun's team decides to capture this person.

Meanwhile, Horyang reveals to his team that he and a man named Cassano were test subjects in the workshop of a group known for creating powerful weapons. They were abandoned as children and turned into "living weapons" by having parts of a "devil" implanted in them. Horyang received the right side, earning him the name "Devil of the Right Arm," while Cassano received the left side. This procedure was extremely painful, and both were used in experiments to harness the destructive power of Shinsu and souls.

Plagued by guilt over the sacrifices he had made to obtain his power, Horyang stopped climbing the Tower at the 20th Floor. Upon learning that Cassano is searching for him on the 28th Floor, Horyang's team decides to help him confront his past.

Later, during the encounter between Viole and Horyang, it is revealed that Viole is also a living Ignition Weapon, as evidenced by a scorpion-like creature emerging from his blood when injured. Curious about the extent of Viole's connection to the experiments, Horyang attacks him to provoke a reaction and determine whether FUG, a mysterious group, is involved. Viole explains that his transformation was a different process that required no sacrifices—instead, a red light was implanted in him.

Horyang accepts this and decides to face Cassano alone, unwilling to endanger the team he considers his family. Meanwhile, Khun's team continues pursuing the "Devil of the Right Arm," leading to a collision of motives and missions on the 28th Floor.
