Chiyoda District, Imperial Palace, North Wing of Honmaru Palace.
The afternoon sunlight spilled into the verdant courtyard.
The trees planted in the Imperial Palace are mostly evergreen species, with some seasonal ones planted in designated garden areas.
Outside the North Wing of Honmaru Palace, there was a stretch of green pine trees.
Kochou was dressed in a dazzling light purple kimono, her long black hair styled up, adorned with a gold hairpin, gold necklace, and other shining accessories.
She sat upright on the sofa, wearing an expression of respect.
Opposite her was a white-haired elder, meticulously groomed, with no visible crease in his attire, and even the crow's feet at the eye corners exuded rigor.
One would immediately sense his serious disposition.
"Hey."
Tanno Hanjirou sighed and said, "Kochou, why must you be so stubborn?
Quickly destroying the Unicorn is beneficial to humanity."
