Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

Chapter 241 - 241- Busan (Part 6)

The feeling of danger. It was a natural sense within any living being's body that helped it survive a threat to its life. That feeling was essential for the survival of many species against natural disasters and predators that see them as good prey.

However, this reaction had its downside too. If the threat reaches a certain level, that reaction overloads the body and makes it react in a very bad way. One of those instances happened at that moment.

Talon stood there for a good three seconds, staring at the nightmare that was moving toward him at a terrifying speed. A gigantic wave loomed over him in the distance, seemingly appearing like a sea of darkness getting closer and closer with each passing second.

The more it got closer, the bigger it became and the more shocked Talon got. He thought that the wave was not that massive, a few dozen meters in height at most. However, he quickly realized how wrong he was.

It wasn't a few dozen meters, nor was it a few hundred meters tall. It was at least 1 kilometer long. As it grew, the world started shaking slowly, and a deep, echoey sound spread across the entire city.

"Talon! You need to move, now!" Acrypha turned to her human as she yelled at him. That made Talon snap out of it as he blinked calmly.

Without saying a single word, he picked up Katashi and put him over his shoulder as he turned around and started running as fast as he could. Meanwhile, the wave was already a few kilometers away from shore and quickly cutting that distance down.

"What is that?! Oh my god!" Katashi was beyond terrified when he saw a glimpse of that. "A tsunami?!"

"Shut up," Talon said coldly as he jumped on top of a building and looked behind him with a calm expression. 'So that was the weird feeling I had today… A sudden expansion? Shouldn't it show some signs before it happens?'

Nothing made sense at that moment for Talon. He had been hit with such bad news at such an unexpected moment that he didn't even show any reaction at all. He was very calm, weirdly calm even.

"What should we do?! We are going to die, goddammit! Start running." Katashi yelled as he struggled to free himself.

"I said shut up." Talon smacked him on the head as he turned around. "Running away won't work. Even if I move as fast as I can, when that wave hits the city, it will be impossible to escape it in the normal way." He said.

With a simple calculation, Talon realized that a wave of this size was going to destroy this entire region, not just Busan. It won't stop till it leaves nothing behind. Talon was certain that he wouldn't be able to survive such a gigantic disaster even with his power.

With no time to waste idling around, Talon picked up his communication device. "Hyun-Jae, Sophie, do you copy?" He said coldly.

"Talon, where are you?! Something wrong is Going on!" Sophie was the first to reply as she kept running. She had heard the lightning strike and felt the world starting to shake violently.

"I'm at the beach right now and I'm heading back to the main building. Meet me at the rooftop as soon as possible."

"Roger!"

Without any questions asked the two girls changed the direction they were running in and headed to the meeting point as fast as they could.

Meanwhile, Talon didn't immediately go there and instead tried to think of something.

"What the hell are you waiting for?! Move!" Katashi yelled as he struggled for his dear life.

He didn't know why but his capturer didn't start running away the moment he saw the giant tsunami wave coming toward them at a horrifying speed.

Talon completely ignored him as he looked behind him. The entire city stretched far and wide, buried in the darkness of the stormy night.

For some reason, his first thought wasn't to run and instead to find another solution.

His eyes scanned every detail in his surroundings before they landed on one particular detail that struck an idea in his head.

'Could that work? It sounds really bad in my head but…'

With what he had at that point, Talon felt that this was a better thing to do than to mindlessly run as he was certain that would fail.

He had no time to think or reconsider, so Talon decided to go with it.

"Stay here." He said.

"What?! Where are you going? Don't leave me here, please!" Katashi yelled.

Talon ignored his terrified cries as he jumped down to the beach again.

"Hey! Talon! What the hell are you trying to do?" Acrypha spoke with an angry look on her face.

"Give me a second, I have to try this." He replied.

"You don't have a second to do that! The wave is almost here!"

But, he ignored her too as he went to work immediately.

Looking around, he crouched down and shoved his hands into the wet sand. Acrypha flew after him, intending to stop whatever craziness he was about to do.

Then, he closed his eyes as he channeled every ounce of Aetheris in his body. Over 200 points of Aetheris were instantly spent as Talon felt his body hit with a strong shock.

Using this much energy depleted his body and made him lose a lot of strength but he didn't let that stop him even for a second.

'I have to ignite it!' He then activated future sight to enhance his focus. A second later, A massive ball of blue flames formed in his hands beneath the surface.

The heat from the massive fire immediately spread everywhere, including Talon's hands as he felt a scorching heat burn his skin.

"Aghhh!!" Groaning audibly, he bit his lip to ignore the pain and continued growing the fire.

The dark sand slowly lit up from underneath as the heat spread to the surface and to the area around Talon.

Acrypha watched the scene with a speechless look on her face.

'It hurts!!!' The more Talon tried to control the azure flames the hotter it became and the more painful the burns were. He felt his hands melting under the surface.

The Only thing that spared him from the soul damage the flames would deal was the layers of sand between his hands and the flames themselves.

With all of his focus, he was able to form the ball a distance away from him and make it expand forward, covering the entire area from beneath.

Seconds passed like hours as the hot hell continued. Talon waited for something to happen. Something that might be the solution.

However, the problem Talon was facing wasn't just the chance of this working but also the wave that was now barely 30 seconds away from him.

'I'm crazy for doing this but it's all or nothing now!'

At that moment, he heard a sound. A very faint cracking echoed in the vicinity and spread around quickly. Then, he saw it. The sand all around him started turning into glass.

It was at first quite fragile and small but the sheet kept growing and growing at a rapid pace till it became a giant block of glass, a few hundred meters in size and a few meters in thickness.

With how far the heat from the flames spread, it almost turned the entire beach into glass.

'It worked!!' Talon's eyes beamed as he quickly dispersed the flames and then shoved his fingers into the side of the glass sheet.

'I better be able to lift this up!' Taking a deep breath, he channeled whatever energy he had left in his body and lifted the glass sheet up.

However, he was immediately met with the crushing weight of the glass sheet.

"Agghhhh!!!" Talon clenched his teeth till they started making weird sounds. The world was shaking even more as the sound of the crushing wave became awfully close.

"Talon!!!" Acrypha felt her heart stop for a second and looked up. The giant shadow of the tsunami loomed over them.

"Move!!!!" Yelling loudly, Talon used every ounce of force in his body as he started picking up the sheet from the ground.

He felt his arms almost getting crushed under the weight of the sheet. His muscles spammed and contracted painfully and his back shuddered as it carried all of that.

He felt his entire body breaking at that very moment. In a few seconds, his limit was completely crushed.

[Ding!]

[You have gained a new skill.]

Ignoring the notification, Talon bent backwards as he let the sheet levitate in the air before clenched his teeth.

'Here goes nothing.'

With that, Talon tilted the sheet of glass to face the wave. Immediately, it was completely dwarfed by its sheer magnitude.

But, Talon had already expected that to happen as this wave was perhaps the biggest this world has ever seen.

Still, his goal was something else. Then, before the wave could fall into the beach, he threw the sheet of glass in the air.

"Come on!!!!" Without wasting a single breath, Talon turned around and started running as fast as he could.

The glass smashed into the wave violently as it broke into pieces. However, at the same time, the upper part of the wave was immediately cut off, killing its momentum that has been building up for god knows how long.

What Talon had just done had cut off the wave in half even though the sheet of glass burst almost instantly. But, that was still far from enough.

"You're crazy!" Acrypha yelled as she flew after him.

"At this rate, it's not going to destroy the entire region! Maybe a few cities at most!" As he ran, Talon kept looking behind him.

The wave had finally reached the shore and started falling down.

*Boooooooooom*

'Oh no!'
