Three Claymores arrive in the town of Toriro to only find Claire, who has already taken care of the Yomas. It is revealed that what Claire defeated in the Holy City was not a Voracious Eater but a regular Yoma; because Voracious Eater is a public term for what the organization labels an "Awakened One". Claire has been added to the expedition team to hunt an Awakened One, as a chance to measure the limits of her skills. How will Claire ranked no. 47, fair against such a powerful being after a shocking turn of events?

Following her recent experience in the mountains Claire is back to her jobs of taking care of Yoma, accompanied by Raki. In the light of her recent change in personality Claire has been given a job to hunt down another Awakened One, North to the village of Gonahl. As she reaches the rendezvous point, Claire is greeted by a lone Claymore and to her surprise it is non-other than the Claymore who lust for blood and battle, no.4 "Ophelia".
