Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 172
“What? What happen? Where the ship go?” Leo was the first to react to whatever happens now.
“They just disappeared just like that.” Lia states the truth, even though she doesn’t have to do so as all of them see it happen.
“Can you still hear Prince Eun-Woo, Prince Ray?” Ayana, who was worried about Jieun’s safety, was no longer shy to ask the first prince.
Hearing the question, Ray then tries to contact Eun-Woo but no matter how hard he tries he can’t.
“I can’t hear them anymore.” Ray said there. Admit it out loud.
They all continue to feel anxious there. Either way, their safety boat has also disappeared somewhere. While the only ship that was there earlier was gone in the blink of an eye.
“Don’t be panic. Let’s think.” Lia tries to give encouragement there to all of them but mostly to herself.
“Look at that!” Ray suddenly screamed there.
Suddenly, from a far they could see, coming from every direction, there’s too many sharks headed towards the giant dolphin.
“Wait, sharks are dolphin’s enemies aren’t they?” Ayana suddenly questioned there.
“Right… I think I know what is going on here!” Lia was sure this time.
“Dolphins are not a bad creature in the first place. They are sociable and friendly. There’s no way the dolphin eliminates the ship and the fisherman for no reason.”
“Do you mean the dolphin are actually trying to help them in the first place?” Leo understood Lia’s purpose saying that.
Lia nodded.
“It’s just my theory anyway. But, dolphins are usually moving in groups. I wonder why this one is all alone.”
“The shark is now trying to attack the dolphin. How is this? What should we do?” Ayana was unable to see anymore when the dolphin now began to make a sound of pain there, a sign of being under attack.
Lia closed her eyes then,
“Adele, can you hear me?” She asks inside her mind without anyone else realizing. This power actually different from what Ray can do. Ray can only communicate with the other wind user while the power that Lia use is just a basic power belonging to the people of the Elysium Land. They can use that to anyone they want. Like a telepathy.
“What’s wrong?” Adele answered there.
“This is bad. I think I need to unleash my power. Is it okay?” Lia said as she started to open her eyes again noticing what was happening now.
“It’s fine my child. If you think you need to do that, it means it’s already the time.” Adele gave permission without even thinking.
Lia, actually has other advantages than others in this world and even her father, King Arthur himself forbids her to use her power for fear of her safety if many find out about that especially King Liam, even if he is his father best friend.
But Adele, the one who took care of her since she was little always told her that she didn’t have to worry about any of this, her power is a gift. not a curse. There will definitely be a time where she needs to use her power for good purposes. And now, it’s probably time.
“What are we supposed to do with this? The dolphin are already starting to bleed.” Ayana began to say tearfully. Sad to see the condition of the dolphin.
“Time control!” Lia suddenly said that making everything except Ray, Leo and Ayana become frozen, stop in the time.
Each of them looked at Lia with a surprised look. Lia ignored all of them and continued using her second power while placing both her hands on the sea water which was now also motionless.
“Static!”
Now it’s as if there is a layer on top of the sea water that is transparent there.
“I explain later. I can’t hold back too long. Leo, you need to go first to help the dolphin. You can step on the sea now. Nothing will happen, but once the time control power stops, sharks can swim back as static power of the sea is only effective for us. ”
Listening to that, Leo without questioning anything, trusting Lia there, immediately changed into his power form. He then ran fast over the water, which now fell hard on his feet and in the split of a second he reached the place of the dolphin. While Ray, Ayana and Lia are now following him in their own pace from behind.
Leo quickly punched the shark that was still not moving there, which attacked the dolphin to keep them away. But, even if he moves fast, because the dolphin is big and there are too many sharks, it takes him some time to get around the dolphin.
Soon after, Ray, Lia and Ayana finally started arriving there. Each one helps them all.
“Wind blow!” Ray also uses his power now to save time. Pushing the sharks away from the place as far as possible. While Lia and Ayana use their own physical to push them away as the time still froze.
But later, Lia can hear in her ear a sound like a clock ticking.
“My power is almost up!” Lia said there.
“Sand base!” Leo uses his sand power there to make a ladder to the top of the dolphin.
“Climb now!” He asks everyone to do so as they also need to save themselves now. So, each is now on top of the dolphin.
Tick tock, tick tock… Ding dong!
As soon as Lia heard that, she continued to sit on the dolphin’s head. Feel a little weak. Ayana continued to kneel there and hold her shoulder. To get stable together as the dolphin started moving.
“Lia, what’s wrong?” Ray asked as he approached. Even he was close to his twin stone where he could clearly see how shiny the stone was on the dolphin’s head, he preferred to worry about his wife there.
Lia was clearly tired.
“Sorry that I can’t use the power of time control for a long time as it will consume a lot of my stamina.” She said feel a little guilt.
Ray wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Leo’s screams there.
“The shark is back in full swing!” Each of them was worried now that they could see the dolphin’s body was already bleeding here and there from being bitten.
“What should we do now? If we wait this dolphin will be injured worse.” Lia said. Concern with the current situation.
“But why isn’t this dolphin getting away like always? Doesn’t this dolphin still have the power?” Ayana raises her suspicion there making all of them also start to wonder.
Lia then looked at the surface of the water and it looked like this dolphin was struggling to move.
“I think his lower body is stuck in something. We need to dive in.” Lia told. Immediately she tied her hair. Choosing herself to do that.
“Are you fine enough to dive?” Ray can’t help but to feel worried about Lia.
“I’ll be fine. Do you think that you can dive with me?” She asked her husband there as Leo power is much more necessary to use now. While Ayana power also like that, it’s just that she’s still afraid to do so. But Lia knows that very well. In desperation, she knows, Ayana will be able to overcome her fear.
“Leo and Ayana, stay here and try to distract the shark.” Ray directed there.
Now each holding a knife, ready to dive.
“I will close the static power for us. One, two,” Lia began to count.
“Three!” Both of them, Lia and Ray said simultaneously as they jumped from the height of the giant dolphin. The sound of their jump at that time apparently caught the attention of the sharks who were now changing direction to go there.
Aware of that, Ayana continued to pick up the folding knife, and injured her hand slightly.
“What are you doing?” Leo started to ask, with a restless face, seeing Ayana who suddenly did that.
“Sharks sniff blood. I didn’t have power like all of you, but I will use any method that I know to help. Can you help throw this bloody cloth a little farther there?”
“So that they don’t attack Ray and Lia.” Leo said. Just understood.
Ayana nodded.
Leo then did as he was told and threw the cloth with all his might. What Ayana said is true. The shark who had wanted to go through the area where Lia and Ray were kept rushing to the place where Leo threw the cloth that had Ayana’s blood on it.
“You are right.” Leo praised Ayana there.
Ayana just smiled.
“But your hand… “Leo tried to say something, but suddenly the dolphin started moving violently, making Leo unable to balance himself and started falling from the dolphin’s body, leaving Ayana alone, who managed to crawl, stabilizing herself on top.
“Prince Leo! ” Ayana was only able to scream as she saw Leo fall to the surface that there was another group of sharks there.
