The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S3) Chapter 178 [Equake and Tsunami ]
Eve's regret is growing. The girl was already ready to raise her mana-coated fist with a sinister smile. The young man sitting in front of him seemed resigned and did not intend to fight even though he himself did not understand the reason for the girl's anger.
"Sister, this blow from your little sister won't hurt, really." said the girl as gently as possible.
Aqua did not feel that way at all, the article from Eve's fist, appeared dangerous-looking auras.
"Ha.. hahaha.." Aqua's smile goosebumps.
"Please slow down a little..."
"So much, brother."
Eve had already finished preparing her fists and Aqua was seen preparing to endure the pain which was definitely not a little. But when Eve just raised her fist...

DRRREEEGGG

Very strong shaking occurs. The ground suddenly shook violently. High-scale earthquakes spread throughout Demetria, not least the Levana Empire in the Human Continent.
"!?"
Eve lost her balance. He did not have time to react because the earthquake happened suddenly without any signs.
GREPS
Thanks to Aqua directly catching him, the girl was unharmed. Well, even if he wasn't captured, he still wouldn't be hurt.
"Wrought!?" startled Aqua.
Now was no longer the time for them to have a heartwarming reunion. Something big has happened. The focus of the two of them now returned to the world.
Inside the arms of Aqua who was trying to protect her from the earthquake, Eve felt something bad.
"!!!"
[ Ice Blood Fortress ]
His hand swiftly touched the sand and instantly a red crystal fortress made of blood ice formed between them and the ocean. The fortress that Eve forms is very large, reaching 100 meters in height with a length and width of 1000×20 meters.
Eve combines elements of ice and blood is not without reason, blood is thicker than water so the level of hardness produced is completely different. That magic was a Legend level magic that was extremely mana draining, especially since the magic scale was quite vast. But Eve thoughtlessly used that magic because within seconds after the earthquake occurred, a high surging Tsunami came following.
The waves of seawater that hit Eve's blood ice fortress did not stop in a single blow. It turned out that the first one was just the beginning, the follow-up wave was much higher than the wave that came first.
Aqua did not stay still, she touched Eve's ice fortress and channeled her mana.
[Hard High Ground ]
The mana Aqua took out made the ground beneath the fortress rise up to 500 meters. But unfortunately it is still not enough to withstand the tsunami that came.
BYUUUUUURRRRRR
As a result, tons of seawater escaped and gushed from the top of the fort. Fortunately the reason Eve and Aqua cast such magic, was not to protect themselves but to buy time as well. They both had time to take out their wings and fly higher than Tsunami.
Why didn't they just fly from the beginning?
First, if they fly, time will run out just to save themselves and the Tsunami will hit the surface where many ordinary people live without knowing anything. Whereas by removing the fortress first, they can reduce the impact of the Tsunami as well as save themselves.
Thanks to all their efforts, no more water escaped to the forest or the forest.
"What the fuck was that?" aqua said in disbelief.
"The earthquake did come without any signs, but the Tsunami should have given rise to signs of its arrival. But it came so suddenly."
"And again, even the tsunami with the highest wave of sea water on Earth reached 1,719 feet or about 524 meters. While that was over 700 meters."
Eve noticed the uneasy ocean while listening to Aqua's words. ".....A normal tsunami would be. Because the earthquake that occurred on the seabed must have made vibrations below sea level first. That's what makes a Tsunami there can be signs."
"What do you want to say?" ask Aqua without a stale ado.
Eve's eyes narrowed in suspicion. "Aqua, this is most likely not a natural disaster."
"!!"
Aqua instantly caught the girl's intent.
"You mean...magic?"
Eve shook her head, "The magic also has a mark of mana remnants. This case is more similar when there are asteroids or meteors that fall into the sea. But since it's so rare on Earth, I don't know the difference exactly."
"It's true, it never happened again in the human era. The head of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration also said that 65 million years ago in Mexico the fall of an asteroid to Earth was suspected of causing dust scattering globally and causing drastic global climate change that destroyed the dinosaurs" Aqua replies.
"With this fact, we can know that Tsunamis resulting from the fall of something foreign have a much more destructive impact than Tsunamis caused by earthquakes or volcanoes erupting on the seabed."
Eve's expression darkened, her feelings unpleasant.
"Although so... Tsunamis that occur today have a smaller impact than the research of experts on Earth? Width? No. Given the scale of the Tsunami and this earthquake, it should be that the width of something that fell was not small."
Eve thought out loud using her entire brain, "Then.... tall...?"
"!!!!"
The girl realized something after thinking hard, instantly her body was limp because of the thing she realized. His wings were also weakened due to the shock he was in.
Aqua swiftly caught the girl before she fell.
"Eve!?"
"!?"
The slender body that Aqua lifted was trembling. This made Aqua confused.
"Eve... Oh!! Why you!?"
"A... Aqua..."
Not only was his body limp and tremble, his eyes also trembled in disbelief. Cold sweat was pouring from his head.
"Yes. What was? Calm down first. You know something?" aqua asked somewhat frantically at the condition of the girl.
Eve gripped Aqua's collar with her hands still shaking and looked at her fixedly.
"Continent... Continents... Floating Continent..."
"!!"
Aqua understood Eve's intentions immediately. The young man gritted his teeth and held the still-shock and powerless Eve away from there.
His dragon wings made Aqua's flying speed increase drastically although instead she would attract attention if anyone saw her. But now was not the time for him to care about it.
Aqua just focused on flying quickly back to the Academy. His hand also hugged Eve tightly for the girl to become calmer. This time Eve's feelings aren't as good as before. Eve's chest was extremely claustrophobic and pounding violently, her mind starting everywhere. He can no longer think of positive things. Shadows of the faces of his wounded angelic companions filled Eve's head.
"This damn world really doesn't give you a break!!!" inner Aqua growled.
Aqua activated her earrings, "Emergency! Get together at point C! Again, an emergency! Get together at point C!!"
