บท 409: Way Back Home

Emma and Shiroi, who were waiting by the foot of the mountain, heard the commotion even from afar. The shrieks of the Quasar Lightning Snake were more deafening than usual, and the skies seemed to sing its chorus with the lightning and thunder.

"Do you think it's over?" Shiroi worriedly asked, turning her head at Emma who was casually sitting on a huge boulder.

"I think so. The storm's calming down a bit." Emma pointed at the mouth of the volcano where the black storm cloud was beginning to dissipate a bit. "It's bound to be over soon."

"Aren't you worried... Satoshi might be in trouble." Shiroi anxiously asked, pacing back and forth while looking at the volcano from time to time. As much as she wanted to assist Satoshi, she didn't have any teleportation ability that would get her to the mouth of the volcano in an instant.

If she had to, though, she wouldn't think twice about scaling Mount Etna.
