Axel serves as an underground black boxing champion while secretly working as an undercover agent for the Russian mafia. His mission requires him to enter mafia godfather Dante's inner circle. During a public match inside the octagon, Axel provokes Dante and then deliberately holds back from delivering a fatal blow. The move captures Dante's interest, and Axel is brought to the manor as a personal bodyguard. Once inside, Axel sneaks into the study to crack a safe but is caught by Dante. He uses a forged love letter to explain himself, which deflects suspicion but intensifies Dante's possessive control. Later, during a gang dinner, an assassination attempt targets Dante. Axel throws himself in front of the godfather and takes a bullet, nearly dying. Dante personally removes the bullet and rewards Axel with an S-level pass granting the highest authority in the manor, giving Axel deep access to the empire.
