The delegation finds their progress halted by the rigid bureaucracy of Captain Haruka, who uses the instability of the North as an excuse to block their efforts. Shirayuki initiates a bold, direct negotiation with the influential Eiseit Rugillia. Inside the opulent mansion, she faces a man who values status quo over innovation. Shirayuki, however, utilizes her deep expertise as a pharmacist and the resolve forged beside Prince Zen to challenge his narrow worldview. She paints a vision where the Phostilias becomes a beacon of hope for the northern people during the harsh winters. As Obi provides silent tactical cover and Ryu offers critical botanical evidence, the tension in the room shifts. Shirayuki’s earnest passion begins to dismantle the lord's defensive posture, forcing him to reconsider the true worth of her proposal. By the end of this high-stakes encounter, it becomes clear that Shirayuki is no longer just an herb doctor; she is an architect of her own destiny, capable of swaying the hearts of those who control the realm.
