Kapitel 72: Sato's Advice

Through foliage, past waterfalls, and over watering holes, we walked for the next two days without rest, aside from a minimal amount of shuteye each night. 

It was tough to sleep anyway. I was too anxious to leave myself vulnerable to an ambush. I skipped the whole "sleep with one eye open" by avoiding it as much as I could.

Suda was particularly pissed at me, to put it lightly. Whenever I approached her, she hissed, shoved me aside, and eyed me with blatant distrust.
