Chapter 5: A Heated Uprising! Destination: Peril!
The hemisphere began to switch into high gear as Souma and Emma have arrived in Hejaz within a heartbeat.
"Well, we arrived in Hejaz." Souma commented.
Emma began to slightly blush a bit.
"Y-yeah." Emma said.
Souma simply just snickered.
"Let's go ask anyone if there's a temple or something nearby." Souma explained.
Emma began to silently nod her head.
"Y-yes. L-let's do that, Souma-san." Emma said.
Souma began to pat onto Emma's head.
"Got that right, slugger!" Souma hollered.
Souma went to check around Hejaz. With Emma watching by.
Emma began to feel a rather achy feeling beneath her chest.
"What is this feeling that I am getting? I had felt this tension before since the previous year." Emma thought.
Emma to look upon Souma as she began to heavily blushed.
"Is this the feeling of love?" Emma thought.
Emma began to somewhat confirmed this as she catch up with Souma.
Emma was watching Souma being his normally cheerful self as she slightly smiled to herself.
"Alright. Here goes everything that I stand for. Time to tell him on how I actually feel for him." Emma thought.
Emma began to gather up her inner courage.
Emma began to fiddle onto her fingers.
"Um, Souma-san, I have a confession to make. I have somewhat of a crush on you and I had felt this way about you for a while now. You inspired me to become more aware of my strength and to stand against all odds. And that counts male Venus and Jupiter. A-and I just wanted to tell you that I love you, Souma-san." Emma said.
Emma began to realize that Souma wasn't paying attention to her at all.
"Hmm? You said something, Emma?" Souma asked.
Emma began to shriek in a soft-tone. Almost like a mouse.
"N-no! I did not say anything at all, Souma-san!" Emma replied.
Emma began to ran off, as her status as a lowly 'coward'.
Souma began to scratch his head in a confused manner.
"Strange kid." Souma commented.
Emma began to bang her head at a nearby pole.
"I am such an idiot! I am such an idiot!" Emma hollered.
That's where Emma had noticed a pamphlet. She took the pamphlet with her.
Emma immediately ran up to Souma.
"Souma-san! I found something interesting!" Emma hollered.
Souma began to observe the pamphlet.
"The Hejaz range?" Souma asked.
Emma nodded her head in a shy manner.
Souma began to pat Emma as he grin fierce fully.
"Way to take it for the team, squirt!" Souma hollered.
Emma began to blushed heavily everything Souma praises her.
Therefore, the duo immediately headed towards the Hejaz range.
"We'll get those bracelets in no time!" Souma hollered.
Emma nodded her head.
Then, something had hit Souma and Emma hardcore.
Souma immediately felt a numb in his back.
"That came out of nowhere." Souma commented.
Emma then went to check on Souma.
"Are you alright, Souma-san?" Emma asked.
Then, a chuckle was heard.
"Okay, I am definitely not in the mood for a guessing game! Show yourself!" Souma hollered.
The figure then revealed himself.
It was another Ifrit, this time, one of earth.
"My, my. Aren't we the hurrying bunch?" Eizua asked.
Souma then gritted his teeth.
"Let's go, Emma!" Souma hollered.
Emma nodded her head.
"Right, Souma-san!" Emma hollered.
Souma's Lionet Superior Clothstone and Emma's Vulpecula Clothstone began to twirl around as they faded into the galaxies.
The stars then formed the constellations of the Lion and Fox respectively.
Souma and Emma began to brace themselves.
Souma and Emma immediately donned their Cloths.
The two wielders began to do some fighting reflexes.
Souma and Emma were ready for battle.
An epic showdown between the tag-team duo of Souma and Emma against the Ifrit of earth, Eizua had commenced.
Eizua seemed to be getting the upper hand on both Souma and Emma. Attack after attack.
Eizua began to grin devilishly.
- Crusher Defiance! – Eizua hollered.
Eizua unleashed a heavy destructive attack on Souma and Emma.
Souma and Emma could feel the tides coming in towards them.
"Looks like that this is the end for you, Bronze Saints." Eizua commented.
Eizua was about to unleashed another deadly attack on Souma and Emma.
- Crimson Needle! – Sonia hollered.
Sonia's ultimate attack began to stun Eizua.
Sonia appeared beside Souma and Emma. This caught Souma by surprise.
"Sonia?" Souma asked.
Sonia then rebuffed the time for mere questions.
"Questions later, Lionet! You and the small predator have the solid chance to beat him now!" Sonia replied.
Emma became somewhat offended by Sonia's last sentence.
"Small predator?" Emma asked.
Souma began to nod at Sonia with full confidence.
Souma turned to Emma.
"Let's go while we have the chance, squirt!" Souma hollered.
Emma began to nod her head at Souma.
"Right!" Emma hollered.
Souma and Emma began to concentrate very hard on their Cosmo.
"Burn…" Souma said.
"Swift…" Emma said.
Souma began to tap onto his Ryusei power.
The tides were set in play.
"Our Cosmo!" Souma and Emma hollered in unison.
Souma and Emma went to charged at Eizua.
- Lionet Explosion! – Souma hollered.
Emma followed suit afterwards.
- Vulpecula Magnus Fire! – Emma hollered.
Souma and Emma combined their attacks together to strike at Eizua.
Eizua began to slightly grit his fangs.
Eizua vanished afterwards.
Souma turned to Sonia.
"Thanks for assist back there, Sonia. Even though we didn't need it beforehand." Souma commented.
Sonia became rather tsundere at best.
"You think I wanted to help and not check up on you?" Sonia asked.
Souma began to heavily grin.
"Is it because you like me?" Souma asked.
Emma began to shriek like a little mouse.
Sonia became tsundere once more.
"You're being ridiculous! I would go on a drinking binge than to kiss you!" Sonia replied, blushing.
Souma simply snickered.
Emma began to tap onto Souma's shoulder.
"We should get going on retrieving our bracelets, Souma-san." Emma commented.
Souma nodded in agreement.
"Almost forgot." Souma said.
Souma walked towards the shrine.
Emma immediately bows down to Sonia.
"Thank you again." Emma said.
Emma went to catch up with Souma. Not before entering a brief standoff with Sonia.
While exploring the shrine, Souma and Emma came across two fancy looking totems.
Souma and Emma began to put their hands onto the totems.
The totems began to glow.
With that, the Lionet Constellation Bracelet and Vulpecula Constellation Bracelet have appeared afterwards.
Souma and Emma grabbed hold of their respective bracelets.
"We got our bracelets." Emma commented.
Souma and Emma began to give each other a thumbs-up.
Souma and Emma met back with Sonia.
"We're going towards Dubai. You can come along if you want." Souma commented.
Sonia began to smirk.
"Fine by me." Sonia said.
Souma began to snicker.
Souma immediately ran off.
Sonia then turned to Emma.
"You should be warned, little fox. There can be only one woman that is suitable for Lionet's heart." Sonia commented.
Emma was caught off-guard once knowing that Sonia had a thing for Souma too.
"A love rival?" Emma thought.
Souma began to tap onto his foot.
"You guys coming or what?" Souma asked.
Emma began to nod her head.
"W-we're coming, Souma-san!" Emma hollered.
Emma and Sonia intensely glared at each other as lightning emerges.
The beginning rivalry between Emma and Sonia commences as their prowl in winning Souma's affection starts into high gear.
Elsewhere in the Arabian Peninsula, Eden had felt his brotherly instincts kicking in.
Aria began to take great notice.
"What's wrong, Eden?" Aria asked.
Eden began to have a slight smile on his face. Not wanting to worry Aria.
"It's nothing, Aria. It's just my brotherly instincts had just kick in." Eden replied.
Eden and Aria were riding on a camel.
Aria simply just smiled at Eden.
"I have a risky feeling that Souma might be hitting on my sister. And that is something that I am not okay with." Eden explained.
Aria became confused.
"Souma hitting on Sonia?" Aria asked.
Eden did not exactly know himself. However, he had seen some vile hints during the previous year as well as a month ago.
"I actually paid attention when Souma was pulling the moves on my sister." Eden commented.
Eden began to carefully think that his assumption might be right.
"If Souma ends up going into great lengths in flirting with my sister, he has another thing coming from me." Eden commented.
Aria began to giggle.
"You really care about Sonia's safety, Eden." Aria commented.
Eden began to slightly blush a bit.
"She is my older sister, Aria. I have to make sure that she finds some form of happiness like the two of us." Eden said.
Aria warmly smiled at Eden.
"Maybe you're a bit overprotective?" Aria asked.
Eden slightly blushed.
"That is not the case though, Aria." Eden replied.
Aria began to give Eden a rather playful look.
Eden began to blush in embarrassment.
"Maybe that I am too overprotective. But, it's only because I want to prevent any kind of relationship that Souma wants to have with my sister." Eden confessed.
Aria began to giggle.
Eden began to slightly blushed, upon seeing Aria happy.
"Well, we shouldn't worry too much of it. We've arrived in our location in finding the Orion Constellation Bracelet, Eden." Aria commented.
Eden and Aria have arrived in Arabah.
Did you enjoy it?
