Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!-Chapter 113 - - Ghost Bullets

*DRIP* *DRIP* *DRIP*

The woman's eyes slowly went down as they looked at her stomach. There, she could see what seemed to be a sharp blade protruding from her stomach. Blood dripped from the blade to the ground as it mixed with the dirt and water beneath it.

Then, her eyes slowly looked up as she saw Talon. Half of his face was covered by the wet strands of hair. But, she could see it, a very cold and menacing smirk on that dark face.

Her eyes slowly trailed from his face to his neck where she could see that her blade did indeed hit its target. Except, it didn't go as deep as she wanted. Instead, Talon had put his hand on the blade, stopping it in its tracks. Naturally, that left a deep laceration on his hand.

All of that happened in a split second and ended at the same exact moment.

'He… tricked me…' She thought to herself as she quickly pulled her sword back and jumped a dozen meters away.

"Cough!" Blood leaked out of her mouth as she coughed. Then, she slowly moved her hand down to the blade as she pushed it out of her stomach. Her face subtly changed when she felt the sharp pain filling her body.

"Hah!" Eventually, the blade was out and thrown on the ground, leaving behind a visible hole in the woman's stomach.

Blood gushed out of her injury like a flood. In normal cases, that should've been enough to kill a human many times over. But, because of her high level and rapid healing speed, she didn't immediately fall to the ground.

'How did he stab me in the back with that blade? I made sure that his hands were within my peripheral vision!' Her mind raced to a thousand possibilities.

As for Talon, he slowly stood on his two feet as he looked at his hand. It was completely coated in blood from the sword. Then, he slowly traced the neck injury he sustained. Even though it didn't go deep enough to kill him, it was still pretty bad by all means.

"I almost got you." He opened his mouth and said as he cracked his neck, ignoring the extreme pain that came with it. "Now I can see how fun it is to play little tricks on people."

Picking up his spear, Talon aimed it at the woman. "Have fun rotting in hell, bitch."

"Hm?" The woman exhaled a small breath as she heard a small noise coming from behind her.

Before she could even react, her body already moved as she jumped to the side. A split second later, the same blade flew through the air and gave her a shallow cut.

'A flying blade?' Leaping in the air, she landed on her feet again, only to find herself faced with another blade that was aiming for her face. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

*Swish*

Tilting her head back, she barely dodged the incoming attack before she had to backflip again to dodge the first blade. The two flying blades assaulted her from all sides at the same time. Whenever she dodged one, another would take its place and try to ambush her.

She didn't even have time to understand what was happening.

'He keeps revealing new abilities one after the other. Is this some kind of joke?' She cursed to herself.

Meanwhile, Talon used that time to circle around her and join the three-sided assault. Not even for a second did hesitate from aiming for lethal attacks.

Even if she looked like a human, he didn't care at all. She harmed someone close to him, that was more than enough for him to completely lose any sense of empathy.

As he continued his rampage, pushing the woman more and more to a disadvantage, Talon realized that even with that deep injury, her speed and strength weren't decreasing at all.

In fact, the more they fought, the faster she became and he could easily notice that.

Swinging his spear, the woman jumped back swiftly, avoiding all of his attacks with great accuracy.

'I can't let her take control or she will pull off something weird again.' Talon squinted his eyes as he flipped his spear. Even after all of this, he still had multiple trump cards in his sleeve ready to be used. He only needed the perfect moment to unleash them and end her.

Starring at him through the menacing mask, the woman pointed her finger at him.

"Don't overestimate your abilities. The only reason you're still alive at this very moment is because you're still useful to me. Killing you would be a waste." She said.

"Well, you better rethink your decision," Talon replied as he dashed forward and slashed down, clashing with the woman powerfully.

The two looked at each other from up close as sparks flew from their weapons.

"You do not seem to understand your limits. Every single one of you dumb copies is the same. Very foolish, idiotic, and yet egotistical bastards." Her voice was as cold as ice as she pushed Talon back before she slashed with her short sword.

Talon raised an eyebrow as he barely dodged her attacks.

"Copies?"

However, the woman ignored his question and attacked him viciously.

"I didn't come here to die from you." Her aloof voice slowly became more and more angry.

'She's getting stronger…' Talon frowned hard as he moved his spear, clashing with the woman. He felt his advantage slowly waning.

"This world is too weak to take me down."

Throwing ten kunais at Talon, the woman suddenly tapped her side. Immediately, a long object appeared in the palm of her hand in a very bizarre way. Blue hexagonal particles surrounded the object as if they were creating it before they vanished, revealing what seemed to be a gun… A sniper rifle to be precise.

However, its slick and advanced appearance made it seem like it came from far into the future. Turning around, the woman grabbed the weapon with two hands and aimed it at Talon who was running out of the kunais way, letting them explode in the ground.

The moment she rested her cheek on the back of the weapon, a blue, holographic scope appeared where her right eye was.

The scope easily located Talon's moving silhouette before aiming at him. Slowly, she put her hand on the trigger.

'You have no idea how much I worked hard to reach this point. All I have to do is get to the last destination and everything will be over. I won't let you be a hindrance.'

*BANG*

Talon, who was still running, heard the sound of the gunshot as he looked to the side, only to realize something… He was already hit.

'Shit!' Clenching his teeth, he felt the bullet pierce through his side and exit from the other side.

"AGH!!"

Blood splurted out as he fell to the ground, unable to breathe from the shock. His eyes widened slightly as he felt his consciousness waver for a second.

'God… dammit!'

Clenching his teeth, he quickly put his hand into his pocket and pulled another healing potion before he chugged it down as fast as he could. Then, he quickly stood up as he held his injury.

Looking at the woman, he saw that her sniper rifle was still aiming at him.

*BANG*

Again, he heard the sound of the rifle shooting. However, even though he was staring directly at it, he couldn't even see a glimpse of the bullet before it pierced through his shoulder, blowing a chunk of it off.

'Fuck!! Why can't I see the bullet?! It doesn't seem like it's even shooting anything before I I need to move!' Cursing under his breath as he fought the hellish pain, he quickly dashed to the side.

With Talon's enhanced vision, he was damn sure that he can see bullets even if he doesn't have the reflex speed to dodge them. But, with her weapon, not only could he not see anything, but he was almost sure that there weren't any bullets leaving the muzzle. It was as if the bullet just teleported to his body.

'How am I supposed to dodge that?!'

The woman calmly aimed at him as she pulled the trigger again.

*BANG*

The moment Talon heard the sound again, he immediately jumped in the air. This time, the blood splurted out of his left leg.

Falling to the ground, he quickly stood up again. The pain from each bullet almost made him lose his mind. He had never been shot before, but he was sure that it didn't hurt as much as these bullets did. Every part of his body felt as if it was being destroyed from the inside. But, he couldn't stop or he was dead for sure.

"Run, little prey… Run. You aren't going anywhere." The woman murmured as she aimed her rifle again, ready to shoot another bullet.

However, at that moment, she noticed something weird.

"Hm?" Looking back, she saw a small cloud of smoke coming from the other side of the forest. Then, looking down, she saw something that made her freeze in her place, completely shell-shocked.

"... What?"
