My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—-Chapter 405 Mount Etna

"A-A-Amy, was it?" Shiroi suspiciously looked at the Copycat up and down as she called her by the name that Satoshi gave her. She couldn't believe that such a seductive tamed beast existed. The more she looked at her, the more she was convinced that Satoshi had ulterior motives when taming her.

Her gaze made Amy uncomfortable even though she was already wearing clothes. Previously, she didn't bother wearing any clothes but Satoshi convinced her to do so since her figure was pretty curvaceous, and heads will turn if she were to reveal herself in public. While it did impede her transformation a little bit, she decided to stick to Satoshi's principles.

"We're setting off at first light tomorrow, right? Hopefully, the weather would be clear." Satoshi said to himself, heading back to his tent.

Amy also stood up and headed to the same tent where Satoshi was going. Shiroi was quick to act, unhesitantly grabbing Amy by the arm before she could take another step.

Surprised, Amy turned around, wondering why Shiroi grabbed he when she also wanted some early shut-eye.

"Don't tell me you're going to sleep with him?" Shiroi asked such a misleading question that Emma almost choked on the carrot she was chewing.

"Sleep with him? Yes. We need to get up early tomorrow, right?" Amy confirmed. Even though she could easily send Shiroi flying with her superpowers, she didn't do anything of the sort. She was aware that her master holds Shiroi close to her heart so offending her would also offend Satoshi. If it weren't for that, Shiroi would've experienced an embarrassing defeat and more.

"You're not sleeping with him." Shiroi continued, still unaware of the misleading phrases she was saying. At this point, Emma was already holding her breath while trying too hard to suppress her chuckle.

"Ah," Amy let out a single note of exclamation before returning to her seat. Unlike others, she wasn't as dense. She was aware that Shiroi was acting out of jealousy at the moment and that's why she didn't argue with her anymore.

But then again, that didn't stop Amy from teasing her. A smile briefly appeared on her face before she spoke. "But... we've always slept together." Amy trailed off, twirling her nonexistent braids as she looked away.

Unlike Shiroi, Emma immediately noticed what Amy was trying to pull off. Before she said anything, though, she had to swallow the mouthful of stew in her mouth, otherwise, she might spray it on someone if she started laughing.

"Y-y-you've always slept..." Shiroi was shocked to her core. With her face turning a nice shade of paleness, she shakily pointed a finger at Amy. "H-h-how can you say that?"

Emma calmly sipped on the tea that was brewing by the side of the stew. She let out an exhale before speaking. "Well, by your definition, then Satoshi and I always slept together as well" Emma continued, much to Shiroi's confusion.

"W-w-what are the two of you talking about?" Shiroi continued. This time, she was pointing a finger at Emma.

"The three of you should sleep now. We need to wake up early tomorrow." Another voice spoke, interrupting the three who were in the conversation, when they turned back, they noticed that a girl was coming out of Satoshi's tent. She had black hair, and her phoenix-like eyes seemed to stare into each of their souls.

Amy and Emma weren't surprised by her appearance, nor did they misunderstand where she was coming from. After all, on the surface, she came out of Satoshi's tent, but in reality, she emerged from the dimension which was constructed by the Orb Oboros. It did look like she was coming out of Satoshi's tent though, and that's why Shiroi was surprised.

"Ryoko?! Ryoko, what are you doing?" Shiroi exclaimed. Before she could do anything though, Ryoko weirdly stared at her before heading back into Satoshi's tent.

"That's my cue, goodnight everyone," Amy called out as she waved her hand. She also headed inside Satoshi's tent and into the dimension constructed by Orb Oboros.

"And that's that, goodnight." Emma teased as she too followed into Satoshi's tent.

"Mou~!"Shiroi exclaimed.

.....

The distant coos of birds were what woke Satoshi up. By the time his eyes opened, the tent was already flooded with sunlight. It was already midday, and the girls were already preparing breakfast. A yawn left his mouth, and he rolled a couple of times inside the tent before doing his usual push-ups.

It was ironic since he woke up late when he was the first one to hit the sack. He felt a modicum of embarrassment as he got out, sheepishly making his way to the circle of rocks that acted as chairs.

After a quick breakfast, the three of them made their way to the tallest mountain on Emma's home planet. This mountain was known as Mt. Etna and was known to be the tallest mountain, as well as the most active volcano in this world. I

Only after they got to the location did Satoshi find out that the mountain is also a volcano. "Sorry, I guess I forgot to mention that," Emma said as they teleported by the foot of the mountain.

Just from one glance, Satoshi could tell that the mountain was taller than Mount Everest back home. His geography lessons back in the day were all starting to come back to him and he could've sworn that there's a volcano on Earth that goes by the same name, Mount Etna (and he was correct. In the past, Mount Etna was considered the most active volcano on Earth. But at present, the most active volcano is in the Southeast Asian country called the Philippines. Ever since the year 2069, this volcano, called the Mayon, had been erupting nonstop, producing a steady outflow of lava which made the volcano bigger.)

"So this is Mount Etna. It looks more formidable than I thought." Satoshi said to himself. Despite the clear sunny day, the top of the volcano had an ever-occurring storm cloud. It was a constant thunderstorm.

"I guess there was no use hoping for a clear day when it's stormy all year at the top of that mountain," Satoshi muttered to himself before turning towards Emma and Shiroi. "So, what's the plan?"

From the depths of the thick cumulonimbus cloud, the vague shape of the titan snake could be seen. Satoshi couldn't help but let out a gasp as he admired the view from the foot of the mountain. Even from this distance, the snake already appeared to be big. He could barely process how much bigger the snake would look once they approached it from a short distance.

Silence befell Emma and Shiroi. Of course, they had no plan. Even if they did, all those plans were thrown out of the window the moment they saw the sheer size of the Quasar Lightning Snake. It was bigger than they thought, and there was no way they'd be able to deal with it.

"You know what, it would be best if I take care of this on my own. At the moment, can I ask you for a favor, Shiroi?" Satoshi asked.

"Sure, what is it?" She asked.

"Can you teach Emma some basic skills when fighting? Also, teach her the proper etiquette when fighting against someone in a tournament setting. I'm sure there will be matches in their initial test when they process their enrollment slash transfer. It would be bad if she got rejected because of poor sportsmanship."

Upon asking that, Satoshi popped a thumbs up towards them before commanding Ghast to construct a dimensional portal in front of him.

"Satoshi," Emma called out.

"Yes?"

"Be careful out there. We'll be waiting for you." Emma and Shiroi simultaneously said before Satoshi stepped inside the portal. They were well aware that going with Satoshi would just be a burden for him. After all, they were relatively weaker than him in terms of physical strength or superpower. While they felt a bit guilty, they knew that this was the best option. It would be bad if they dragged Satoshi down while dealing with the Quasar Lightning Snake. His attention would be divided after all if the two of them were present.

"Well then, let's get you ready for the new semester, Emma. I hope you can keep up." Shiroi called out as an Ice Domain suddenly appeared on the ground.

Emma jumped and created a 'blocked' portal as a platform to stand on. "I should be the one saying that. There's no way you can keep up with me." Emma returned, a smile appearing on her face.

Fwooosh~

Before Satoshi fully stepped inside the dimensional portal, he already felt the intense wind pressure and the deafening sounds of thunder. He was walking straight into a thunderstorm with nothing but his familiars to support him. "This is scarier than I thought... but there's no turning back now." Satoshi said to himself, steeling himself as he stepped forward.
