Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

Chapter 242: Chapter 242- Turn of Events (End Of Volume 2)

A few seconds later, the gigantic wave crashed into the shore, sweeping everything along with it. The sound of the water coursing violently as it spread everywhere filled the entire world.

The ground shook as if it was hit with an earthquake. Nothing was able to stop it and nothing lasted long enough in front of it.

In a matter of seconds, the wave crashed into the walls of the resort, turning them into mush almost instantly.

Then, it quickly gushed into the compound, destroying everything in its way.

"WHAT THE FUCK?!!!"

Many guards saw that and were struck with a paralyzing terror. Their minds didn't understand what happened but their bodies wanted to run.

However, how could that even be possible? The wave had already reached them. All they saw was the looming shadow of death as it descended on them before everything turned into painful, suffocating, darkness.

The cries of pain muffled by the sound of the water moving and crashing into everything mixed together. In less than 10 seconds, tens of people died and the rest found themselves stuck in buildings as they collapsed one after the other.

'This is bad. I tried to stop it somehow but it didn't even change anything!' Cursing his horrible luck, Talon jumped from one building to the other as he headed to the main one.

Even though his idea had cut the wave's power by a good chunk, the results were still far from good. It was simply not something that can be stopped.

It was a disaster of a different scale. The wave didn't seem like it was going to stop any time soon.

In the distance, he saw a glimpse of two silhouettes standing on the roof of a building as they waited anxiously.

"Talon!!" Seeing the young man, the two beamed with hope as they rushed to him.

"What is going on?!" Hyun-Jae asked as she looked beyond him. The wave had already reached half-way through the resort and quickly spread everywhere.

"It's the same disaster that struck us a few weeks ago. The second expansion. We need to leave right now! That wave isn't waiting for anyone!" Talon replied as he put Katashi down and released him from the ropes.

"We don't have time to idle around. Listen here, I'm going to release you for now. I want you to use your wings to carry us to a safe spot."

"What?! I can't carry that many people all at once. We will fall!" The man tried to stand up, only for Talon to push him down.

"Who said I wasn't going to help you?" Saying that, Talon summoned his two Aetherial Blades again. "Use these to reduce the weight. They can act as a support."

"..." Katashi's face turned grim when he heard that.

"You have no other choice. Either help us or we will all die together here. Choose wisely."

The man looked down as he sucked in a deep breath. He knew that he had no other choice at that moment. The wave was about to reach them and kill them all.

'Curse all of you!!! He yelled in his head before he looked up and activated his wings.

"Fuck! Hurry up and grab onto me." He said.

As he started flapping his wings, Hyun-Jae and Sophie grabbed onto his legs while Talon held his arm to make sure he didn't do anything.

Then, he positioned the Aetherial Blades next to him. Katashi put his hands on the flat Sides of the blades and left them to carry some of his weight.

Meanwhile, the waves have already reached the main building as it smashed violently into it. Glass burst open and the walls crumbled down.

The building started swaying with them as they lost balance.

"Ugh!!!" Katashi groaned as he started rising up. The weight of three people was something that he couldn't easily carry even if he was using some support.

But, with the fear kicking in and the adrenaline rushing through his veins, he powered through it and flew in the air a split second before the entire building collapsed.

Talon almost lost his balance when he felt the rocks beneath him crumbling. Looking down, the water level was still rising at a rapid pace and almost reached them.

"Hurry!" Talon said as he felt his legs dipping into the violent current, almost pulling him down.

But, luckily his strength helped him pull it out as he looked up. The storm had turned even more brutal and the rain was pouring down as if there is no tomorrow.

It single handedly made the tsunami way worse and far more unpredictable. The wind also struck the waves and agitated them even more.

"HOLD ON!" He yelled.

Meanwhile, Sophie and Hyun-Jae used their powers to stay on top of the water level.

Horrifying few seconds passed slowly before Katashi finally rose to a higher level than before. That's when the water stopped rising further and instead continued spreading everywhere.

"Fuuh…" Looking down, they exhaled a long sigh of relief.

'We somehow got out of the situation. But, it's far from over.'

Even if they somehow found a safe spot to land on before Katashi reached his limit, there was still the violent storm that was pushing them left and right and could easily make them fall at any moment.

'I need to find a good spot where we can land as soon as possible or we are all dead.' He thought to himself.

But, that's where he faced a major problem with that. Where can he find a good place to land if everything went to hell?

The entire city was going to drown and so was every other area surrounding it. They had to travel a long distance to find a good spot where the water couldn't reach them.

However, nothing made sense at all at that moment and Talon didn't realize that it was only about to get worse.

As he was looking around him, he noticed something in the water beneath him.

Squinting his eyes, he noticed several dark spots moving around. They were strikingly catchy even amidst the chaos.

'What is that?' He asked himself only to be met with a shocking reply quite instantly.

A rather small creature suddenly emerged from the depths and flew in the air like a spear, aimed at him.

"What?!" Before he realized it, the creature reached him and bit his leg. The latter kicked it instantly as it fell back to the water.

'What in the hell is that?!'

"There are monsters in the water!! Be careful!'

The two girls immediately looked down only to witness the same type of creatures jumping out of the water and attacking them.

Immediately, Hyun-Jae pulled her sword out and attacked them. Using the lightning energy within her, she was able to hit a few only to realize that their numbers were only increasing.

"I will help!" Using one hand, Sophie created a net of strings as she made it float right beneath them.

The flying fish used their sharp teeth to cut through it as they launched themselves in the air recklessly. Their crazed hunger and their desire to get to them was blinding their judgment if they had any.

But, for one reason or another, that bloodlust seemed to fuel them even more. Their small screeches echoed everywhere as they smashed into the net again and again and again.

'This is really bad. The net won't hold on for long.'Just a simple glance at Sophie made him realize that she was barely controlling it. 'I barely have any Aetheris left in me. But…'

He had no choice. Hyun-Jae was trying to kill as many as she could using long range lightning attacks and Sophie was holding the last barrier between them and the man-eating abominations underneath.

With no other choice, Talon tried to create small fireballs using Azure Flames. Then, he threw them at the monsters.

A chain of explosions erupted everywhere, illuminating the dark world.

Many monsters fell dead and even more were burnt to ashes. However, those would instantly get replaced by even more monsters.

Meanwhile, Katashi was struggling to fly. The wind had been abusing him the entire time. His wings were soaking wet and his body was in so much pain that he could barely breathe.

"Don't stop throwing attacks at them. We're close to getting out of here." Talon said in a not-so-optimistic tone.

He knew that his words were just bluff since he could barely even keep himself conscious after wringing his Aetheris dry.

His hands were burnt to a terrifying degree and his muscles ached so much they were starting to spasm.

'Think! There has to be something I can do!' No matter how much he tried to find a solution, things only kept getting worse.

*Cut*

At that moment, he heard a sound. Looking down again, the net had been pierced as a fish flew through the hole, aiming for Hyun-Jae.

The latter threw a lightning bolt at it. But, because of the frantic movement of the monster and the strong wind… Her attack missed.

The fish dodged it and flew right toward its target, aiming for her face. Everything happened in a split second and Hyun-Jae didn't even realize it.

The only one that saw it and felt it was Talon. His pupils expanded as he felt his heart stop. The entire world stopped for him at that moment as he realized something.

Hyun-Jae was going to die. No matter how he looked at it, the moment the fish bit her face, she would fall and it would be the end. That realization snapped something in him or to be more precise, awakened something that he had been feeling for the past few days.

A soul-numbing fear that came from his nightmare. A nightmare where he saw his mother's dead body. For a moment, that image overlapped with that of a dead Hyun-Jae.

That alone completely wrecked his mind.

'No…' He thought to himself and in a split second, he made a decision. It didn't even come to his head that it was a bad one, he simply moved according to his heart. He had no energy to fight and no ability to actually try and kill the monster before it hit her.

But, he had one thing he could do.

Releasing his hand, he swung himself toward Hyun-Jae as he punched the monster away. But, by that time, he was already starting to fall.

At that moment, his eyes met with hers and they shared a glance. He saw shock, terror, and realization in her eyes. He felt the soul-shaking emotions that flashed across her eyes before she even uttered a word.

Yet, for some reason, all he wanted to do at that moment was to smile. A sad yet also warm smile.

Opening his mouth, he spoke.

"Wait for me."

"TALON!!!!!!!!!!"

The last thing he heard was the muffled cry of his dear companion before he was submerged in darkness.
