[Inauguration Exam Arc - #8]
...----------------...
"You sure? Four against one, all right!" after saying that, Darkness Swordman immediately used a technique. A technique first seen by the junior Elemental members.
ZLB!
In one blink of an eye, he instantly disappeared. Where to go about?
...----------------...
"Aryan?! The araya?! Where'd you go?"
At the highest point on the island, Kim Dae-Vin and Zaaryan panic plus confused, because Araya disappeared suddenly, without a trace as if swallowed by the earth.
"Did he use teleportation again?" ask Zaaryan to make sure.
"It doesn't seem like he said the teleportation device was broken, so it couldn't be used optimally." Dae-Vin replied with a slight speed in his speech. He rubbed his face in frustration.
"Don't he fall into the abyss?" Zaaryan hypothesized while looking at the end of the abyss not far from there.
"No way, if he fell down would definitely scream."
"What are you guys?" ask Hanny suddenly. He had just arrived using the power of his sound element.
"Araya, disappeared suddenly." replied Zaaryan while wagging his palm in front of his face so that his eyes did not enter the dust that Hanny had brought earlier. Same with Dae-Vin.
"Why is this why so long?" dae-vin asks after the dust starts to disappear.
"I'm sorry, I recovered the energy first. I was tired after playing with Xela. And I got the emerald." replied Hanny, putting her hand in her orange sweater pocket.
"That's it later, now how do we find Araya?" prevent Dae-Vin while looking around.
"Yes, if there's no Araya, we can't all go home either. You've been a long time, sii,"
...----------------...
"DADH!" Araya tried to escape. His condition is very difficult at the moment. He became the hostage of Darkness Swordman! His left hand gripped Araya's neck. Makes Araya a little trouble breathing.
"Arya?!" jeasson and Lina shouted almost at the same time.
"It turns out you're not back yet" he continued.
"Ooh so his name is Araya? It's cute.." The inner person who is one of the controllers of the fire element.
"What are you gonna do to him?!" ask Jeasson again in a loud voice. So stupid, some of his teammates to cover their ears for a moment.
"You wanna know? If you attack again, then I will not hesitate to." said Darkness Swordman while strengthening his grip.
"AAAHHHHH! Uhuk! Huh!" so strong, Araya coughed. His eyes began to glaze over.
"Stop!" henry was screaming.
"What do you want, huh?! If you want this child to survive, you must surrender your elemental power!" said the Darkness Swordman while pointing his sword right in front of Araya's face.
"That's not gonna happen!"
"Ooh don't want to? Alright!" after that the Darkness Swordman threw his sword, and instantly the sword disappeared.
CTAK! JLB!
A snap of a finger was heard, then there was also the sound of something that had just been stuck.
After that, Araya immediately lost her consciousness. There was an object that was shaped like a nail, stuck in his left hand. In these objects, there are toxins that can eliminate a person's consciousness. The poison can be dangerous if it gets into the heart and brain through blood vessels.
"MAYERY!"
The four of them were shocked to see what had happened to Araya. Darkness Swordman was indeed really cunning, even though they did not attack. Shortly thereafter..
Taps! Taps! Taps! Taps! Taps!
The footsteps of someone sounded closer. From the speed of his voice, it seemed like that person was running.
BRUK!
There was someone who hit the Darkness Swordman from behind him. This makes Araya released, European Elemental members immediately act so that Araya does not become a hostage Darkness Swordman for the second time again. Two of them helped the person earlier to prevent the Darkness Swordman's movements. That person is Kim Dae-Vin. He had already managed to hold onto both hands of the Darkness Swordman.
"Quick for the task!" after Henry gave the order, the other three comrades immediately nodded and took action. Jeasson and Lina go to help Dae-Vin. While Xela remained there to assist Henry in giving first aid to Araya.
"Xela, please find a P3K box in my bag" said Henry asking Xela for help, leaning Araya on his shoulder.
"Here," Xela gave Henry a white box.
"Merci (thank you)."
After that, Henry immediately pulled out the object stuck in Araya's hand, then looked for sterile gauze to suppress Araya's wound, precisely to stop the bleeding.
...----------------...
Long story short, after things have improved. When Darkness Swordman was defeated.
Slowly, Araya opened her eyes, then blinked.
"I. Where is it?" ask her slowly when her vision is not yet fully clear.
"It's still here." replied Henry who had earlier lent his shoulder to be Araya's backrest.
"Ups, you don't move much first." prevent Henry while hugging Araya from behind.
"Xela, drinking water" said Henry asked Xela to get a bottle of drinking water nearby.
"Here, have a drink" Henry said again, giving Araya a bottle of water. But, instead of accepting, Araya shook her head slowly.
"Is it still sick?" xela asked now.
"It's not so." replied Araya.
"What exactly happened?" said Araya while looking around. There, there were all four members of the European Elementals sitting around him. And not far from there, there were all three of his teammates.
"So you're the Darkness Swordman's sander. But now it's okay. He's been defeated." replied Henry, looking down to look at Araya.
"Defeated?"
"Yes, after you passed out earlier, Dae-Vin came in and he attacked from behind." Henry replied again. He heard the name 'Dae-Vin', then looked around to find the person. And just then, it just so happens that Dae-Vin is also staring there, their gaze meeting.
"If you're better, you better get back to base" Henry said again, causing Araya to shift her eyes.
After that, Araya again tried to stand up. This time, Henry didn't pull it anymore, he let her. He looked at his three teammates, hinting for them to get closer.
It didn't take long for them to understand the meaning of Araya's gaze. They immediately walked closer to Araya. After that..
"We'll be back at base soon. Thank you very much, sister." said Araya hanging her sentence. He forgot that he still did not know the name of the man.
"Henry," Henry replied with a faint smile.
"Thank you Brother Henry, Brother Jeasson, Brother Lina, and Brother.. Xela." Araya thanked him while lowering his body.
"Cheal quickly." said Jeasson while patting Araya's shoulder softly.
"Thank you."
"Don't forget me huh" said Henry inwardly, still with a smile plastered on his face.
After which, the members of Elemental Asia immediately gathered, then banged their element controllers. At that moment, there was a spark that then turned into a portal.
But before they walked into the portal, they stood facing the four European Elementals, then bowed to do their respects and to express their gratitude.
After which, the four of them immediately entered into the portal. But before that, Araya vaguely saw Henry waving his hand.
The portal had closed then disappeared, signaling they had reached their headquarters.
"Hey, why is your face flushed?" xela asked, elbowing Henry's arm.
"Ah, it's okay" she replied as she held her nape.
"Don't you like Araya too?" Jeasson guess. Henry's face grew red and hot as a result of enduring embarrassment.
"A.. What do you mean 'also'? Are you too?"
"Te. of course not. I'm an adult, I can't possibly like a child."
"Here you are, you are like a child. Don't you want to go home either?" Lina mediated their debate. Actually, there was a hidden intent he did that.
...----------------...
"Welcome" said Aria to greet them. In the room, there are Captain Akira, Kak Aria, Kak Lee, Lrofesor R and Professor F.
"Have you accomplished the mission?" professor R asked as he put his palm into his white coat pocket.
"Yes!"
"Good, let me see the stone you got." said Professor R. Then, they handed the mine over to the Professor.
"Why does Araya carry two at once?"
"Em, the other one.. Dae-Vin left it to me. He doesn't have a pocket." said Araya, giving an excuse, so that Dae-Vin can still pass. The reason Araya is not entirely a lie, the clothes Dae-Vin wears do not have pockets.
"All right, good work, everybody. Now, you are officially a member of Elemental Asia" said Professor R with a proud smile.
"Thank you Professor!"
"You should wear this too. Each of them took one" said Captain Akira while giving an armband bearing the emblem of the Asian element organization, the country flag, and also a username. They took one, according to their country.
Araya took an armband that contained Indonesian objects, with the username 'Park-Hana'. Somewhat strange, the flag is red and white, but the name is Korean.
Having Dae-Vin say 'Ryusei', he was instead given a Japanese name.
While Zaaryan's property reads 'Raditia', and Hanny's property reads 'Sunny'. It still makes sense, the names are already common and can still match the origin of their country.
"If you have, you should always use it when carrying out missions. Understood?"
"Understand, Captain!"
"Oh yes, in your room there is a backup. And, we also give you a surprise" said Professor R. The four junior members put on curious faces. What's the surprise, anyway?
