Later, Leocadio and his squad are assigned to transport a criminal who smuggled goods, who ends up being Innumael Grauer. But as Innumael was freed from prison by the Headkeeper smuggling organization, Leocadio's commander Helman manages to locate them and engage them in a fight.

Although he is distracted by Seitz's death, he does not believe Immanuel to be a criminal and tries to discover Immanuel's connection to Headkeeper.

Leocadio saves Sissel but is forced to kill Helman, branding himself as a criminal in the process, and has no choice but to join Headkeeper as a way to investigate the Empire's corruption.
