Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 173
Ray and Lia now dive to the bottom of the sea and find that what they thought before about the dolphin was stuck with something is true. The bottom of the dolphin is actually stuck with a net. Probably left behind by those who went out fishing in the area before.
With a hand signal, Lia asked Ray to cut the net on one side while she would swim in the other direction because the net was quite wide. Ray nodded in understanding.
Using a knife, Ray carefully began to cut the net there. Lia returned to the surface for a moment being careful so that no shark was aware of her presence there to take a breath, before diving again to do the same.
From a distance, Lia could see Ray had already managed to release the dolphin there and started to rise to the surface to catch his breath.
This time, it was Lia’s turn to start cutting the net at the other corner. But at that moment, as soon as Lia managed to free the dolphin completely from being trapped, the dolphin suddenly moved quite aggressively making Lia bang her head on the mammalian’s body.
Lia, who was unable to do anything slowly closed her eyes as she felt herself sink deeper. She can’t even ask for someone help.
“Is this the end for me?” She had time to ask herself there.
Meanwhile,
“Prince Leo!” Ayana’s voice screaming loudly there made Ray, who was rising to the surface to take a breath feel a little shocked. He could then see Leo fall from the body of the giant dolphin and begin to enter the water with a strong jump.
“Wait, why Lia power is not working?” Ray asked there as a Lia static power which made them feel the surface of the sea water hard like a road supposed to be working for Leo and Ayana at that time. With a worried feeling Ray dived back to the bottom of the sea to find his wife. He already felt something was wrong.
Leo, on the other hand, with great difficulty returned to the bottom of the sea as his unintentional fall made his whole body feel sick.
“Watch out!” Ayana’s scream telling him to be careful, made him alert. His eyes were already able to catch some sharks that were now starting to swim closer to him. Leo sighs there.
“Sandbox!” He uses his remaining power to make a sand wall around him to save himself, but as his sand power hits the sea water, it quickly melts. Even he can use the sand power, when the earth user like he is in the middle of the sea like this, he can’t do much.
Seeing everything that happens from above. Ayana realizes Prince Leo’s defense isn’t that strong now.
“What should I do?” Ayana began to feel anxious. She peered into every area, looking for Prince Ray and Lia but they were still diving in the sea. All that remains is herself.
The incident that happened when she was a child began to cross her mind.
One time when she was little, in Hilleo Village, she underwent training to control her fire based power. But she got no talent whatsoever to handle her power, making her teacher even give up on her. But one time, when she was almost attacked by a snake, as she was too scared she activated her fire power too strong, make almost the whole village burn and that’s when she found Haru for the first time. Haru saves her when she drowns in a fire she did herself and even restores her spirits that were impressed by the incident. It was then that she felt that Haru was her savior.
But now, in such a desperate situation she knew she could not succumb to her fears.
“Argh!”
Leo’s screams there continued to make Ayana not want to think long anymore. Leo made every effort to survive there now. And Ayana will not just watch that.
Ayana slowly slides down from the dolphin body, towards Leo.
“Oh no … Prince Leo, please move!” Ayana failed to control herself and almost landing on top of Leo’s head, but Leo in fast catching her there with his sand power, even making himself defenseless now as he didn’t have any energy to safe them both.
“Why are you here?!” Leo is a little frustrated as now he need to worry about the girl.
Ayana, who is now in the water with him, however, did not answer at all but prayed at that time so that her power was not out of control.
“Help me. Ring of fire!” Ayana began to stretch both ot her hand and call her power there. It’s one of the techniques that she learned from her teacher a while ago but never even managed to do it.
But this time, it’s different. A very fierce circle of fire began to appear, floating on the water, surrounding them and even the dolphin, made all the sharks stay away. Yet they are still roaming nearby. Leo, can only look at Ayana in awe.
“Why does this shark look different?” Ayana asked there when she felt a little relieved after what she did was successful.
Listening to Ayana’s question made Leo observe the shark intently. Suddenly he realized what the girl was saying was true.
They were completely unaware that the dolphin was watching them.
Ekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
When the sound came back, then Ayana and Leo looked behind them. Be aware of the existence of the dolphin.
The same time, Ray was diving back to find Lia. The sea water becomes a little murky making it difficult to see. But as he was feeling anxious each second, all of a sudden he could see Lia clearly there. It was as if her body was there glowing. He knew instantly that Lia fainted there seeing her condition which was closing her eyes.
As fast as he could, Ray swam there. As soon as he held Lia’s hand there and pulled her closer, suddenly,
Ting! Now there is no one on the sea. All that is left is the shark that is now starting to move away from there after seeing their prey that is gone.
From a distance, someone stood on a small boat smiling cynically watching everything that happened before finally leaving the sea.
Ray, Lia, Leo and Ayana suddenly appear on the ship that houses their others companion. Ray didn’t have time to think about what was happening, and was just relieved because he was already out of the water as Lia, who was in his arms at that time still did not move at all.
Slowly he placed Lia flat on the ship and checked for her breathing before quickly started to do chest compressions.
“Please! Lia…” Ray said that while not stopping doing CPR there. Ayana and Leo who were aware of their situation began to approach.
“Lia!” Out of nowhere Jieun, and the others started running towards them. Jieun kneeling in front of Ray and Lia now, to see what’s wrong.
Realizing Jieun’s presence there, Ray kept informing her about what happen.
“She fainted in the sea for quite some time. She probably drowned.”
“Do the rescue breaths.” Jieun direct Ray there while observing the entire body of the princess. Scanning her to see if she was hurt elsewhere and she found it. She got a little internal bleeding inside her head.
Quickly Ray stopped and started opening Lia’s mouth, to do mouth to mouth breathing now. Everyone there held their breath watching what was happening. This is a dangerous situation that they did not expect to happen, but it has happened. Each of them feels uneasy now.
After that, seeing Lia still not moving, Jieun put her hand on Lia’s chest at that moment. She can see with her gifted eyes now that there is a lot of sea water accumulated there. With her power she tries to pave the way for the water to quickly get out there.
“Do the chest compression again.” Jieun directs Ray back while she move away to treat Lia’s head and Ray quickly acts. He even began to feel scared there until tears flowed in his face.
“Please…” He said that with a cracked voice now making the other princes also feel sad to see him like that. They never see Ray like this.
After a few seconds, Lia started coughing, vomiting water from her body. She continued to feel weak at that time, in addition to having a headache. Not very aware of what was happening to her.
Ray continued to pull Lia there in his arms, even though Lia still seemed confused with everything.
“You are alright. You are safe. Thank God.” Ray says that many times while hugging her tightly.
Jieun and the others now smile in relief at seeing them.
“Ray? Is that you? What happen?” Lia asks now as she can’t remember.
“You didn’t remember?” Ray slowly let go of his hug to her and looked at Lia’s eyes now.
Lia was shocked there to see the man shedding tears which she knew was for her. She just nodded in response.
“Her head seemed to hit something, I already fixed that, but she’s probably having a concussion for a while. She will get better.” Jieun said that clear.
“Jieun?” Lia then looked around and saw all of them were now on board and surrounding her. Then, she looked at the scene there. How strange she was feeling then when she saw the pink sky and the ship also floating in the pink water. Not only are they here, but there are many other ships and boats floating nearby.
“Where are we?” Lia can just ask that in shocked.
