Hell's Chicken is the first side chapter in Limbus Company, taking place between Canto III: The Unconfronting and Canto IV: The Unchanging.

This Intervallo chapter was released alongside the Hell's Chicken event on the April 20th, 2023.

Summary

The LCB continue their activities in District 11 after the adventures in Calw to perform a request from the manager of a fried chicken establishment called Bodhisattva Chicken, relayed through a representative from K Corp. named Samjo. The restaurant is currently suffering from trouble caused by the Distorted owner of a restaurant from across the street.

The LCB takes on the request, mostly due to the request as a valuable chance to study the Distortion Phenomenon. Heathcliff was briefly parasitized by a subsidiary entity of the Distortion, and the Sinners were able to glean that the restaurant owner had Distorted due to a "lost recipe". An attempt to recreate the recipe by cooking was decided upon to resolve the Distortion, and a cooking competition quickly arose from arguments between Gregor and Ryōshū.

Several more rounds of cooking were required after both Gregor and Ryōshū failed miserably at producing edible food, with Meursault's cooking coming very near to perfection and Outis's successfully opening the heart of the restaurant owner. As Outis's cooking passed, a portal leading to a Mirror Dungeon of the Fathoms of the restaurant owner opened, and he entered.

Upon initial entry of the Mirror Dungeon, it is revealed that the cause of the restaurant owner's Distortion is the manager of Bodhisattva Chicken stealing his prized chicken recipe and tossing it into a concept incinerator--effectively removing all traces of its existence. The restaurant owner suffered a breakdown due to his cooking chicken being connected to childhood memories of his mother, leading to his Distortion. As the Sinners defeat him, he comes to the realization that his mother did not like chicken, and promptly un-Distorts.

The Intervallo ends with the Sinners opening a gift box from the restaurant owner, only to find that it contains only a plush mascot of the restaurant that never went into production. Irritated, some Sinners propose to get rid of it; however, Charon shows a liking for the plush, and she kept it. Additionally, Samjo was shown in a "post-credits scene" talking to one "Chief Dongrang", informing him of the Sinners' capability; Samjo then prepares for a second meeting with the LCB.

Trivia

• When selecting to enter Hell's Chicken under "Drive", it is represented by the same District 11 icon as Canto III: The Unconfronting, depicting Sinclair's hometown of Calw. This is despite the fact that Canto IV uses another, more accurate to the Intervallo District 11 icon depicting the downtown Nest.
