The time they spent finishing up their meal was time that they took mentally preparing for the next leg of their journey.
The plateau that led through a portion of the mountain, where some wildlife roamed in the open which at least gave some hope that maybe Shoichi overlooked something that was worth being considered food.
That was Seiya's train of thought and hopefully he'd help the kid find something else to eat not to mention himself.
The meal they shared was enough to hold them over for now.
Seiya couldn't help but stare at the plateau as they arrived, this was still not not the peak of the mountain but the open space was still something to stare at with awe.
This mountain wasn't as exotic as the territory that belonged to Gakusha but that didn't make the landscape unimpressive.
This mountain had a charm of its own, not counting the terror that was the Omukade.
Seiya wondered where it slept but he couldn't ask the boy, how would he know where the Omukade made its nest?
