Before the situation could even reach the next day, Uchiha Hiko felt that some matters would not be so easy to resolve. He could only handle them more appropriately himself.
By the following morning, Uchiha Hiko was still uneasy. He did not know why he had ended up in this state, and this strange feeling was not something he could conveniently share with the Eldest Prince or the Second Prince.
"I'm up, Uchiha Hiko. What about you? Are you awake now?" The Second Prince asked warmly, hoping that Uchiha Hiko could remain in his best condition and not be affected by anyone else.
Of course, Uchiha Hiko was someone who kept himself in good condition at all times. He would not be affected by whatever the Second Prince did beside him.
"No problem, Second Prince. Please rest assured. Shall we head out now?" Uchiha Hiko asked, and the Second Prince nodded in agreement.
At first, they had thought that the Hunter, the former village chief, had already gone out to begin his day's work. But when they stepped outside, they discovered that the village chief was still there to greet them.
"You're finally up. Come and have something to eat, then you can set off," the village chief called out enthusiastically. It seemed that he was not too busy that morning, so Uchiha Hiko asked him, "What is it, Village Chief? Is there nothing to do today? Why do you have time to make breakfast for us?"
The village chief laughed heartily, saying that this was simply how they showed their hospitality.
After hearing the divine beasts howl yesterday, they had known that some of them needed to be dealt with. But because there were still two guests in his home that morning, the village chief could not get away.
