The sun dips below Kyoto’s ancient spires, casting long shadows over the bustling market. Levi Ackerman, clad in dark purple silk, leads his corp through the throngs. Citizens bow; he nods, face impassive. They reach the Buddha temple, seeking rest. Inside, on the white marble, Levi’s steely gaze locks onto a priestess in white, kneeling in prayer. For the first time, a crack appears in his icy demeanor, a silent stir in his stoic heart.
