Capítulo 494: Mountain Climbing

The way up to Mount Kita was more straight forward than we had imagined.

A circular path winding up like a spiral surrounded the mountain, with flights of stairs that was clearly man-made. Apparently, the Seirei Shrine we were looking for was at the very top of this mountain, so the staircase might've been built by the people there.

Yes, we could fly, but to be perfectly honest, after all the flying we did earlier in the day, none of us were eager to do that again. Besides, I wanted to check out what these 'corrupted beasts and monsters' were anyway, so walking by foot was best.

Unfortunately, however, we couldn't all go. The reason for that was because the mountain had some sort of barrier surrounding it, limiting the amount of people that could enter. We had no idea until only Mei Gui, Lorelei, Amane, and I passed, while the others were locked out. Apparently, it was time-gated, so the next time someone else could enter would be tomorrow.
