Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

Hyun-Jae stood there for a few moments as she looked at Talon before she gave the woman one last glance.

"Hey, before I leave, you didn't tell me your name." She said in a monotone voice.

"Hi-Ah… You can call me Hi-Ah."

"I'm Hyun-Jae and he is Talon." She replied before she started walking away. "Rest for the day, we will come back tomorrow."

Then, Hyun-Jae moved after Talon who was already back in the tent.

Sitting down on the chair, he threw his back behind as he sighed. "That fucking bastard… He's going to regret this for the rest of his miserable life." He murmured as he tried to calm his raging mind.

The sheer anger he was harboring at that moment was shocking, even to him. If there was one single thing he hated in the entire world, it was people who used their power to oppress the weak and use them. He had lived his entire life hating that kind of people and he will continue to hate them for the rest of it.

Now that he possessed the power to actually stand his own ground against anyone, Talon wasn't going to back down when he found something he completely despised happening right in front of his eyes.

"Sometimes, I question whether monsters are the real threat or not. Sane creatures are capable of far worse evil than those brainless beasts could ever do." Acrypha commented as she floated around.

"It's ironic, isn't it? We're supposed to be better than them. But, the worst disasters to ever happen are the work of humans, not beasts." Talon laughed sarcastically.

"Perhaps that's the reason why we're different. We believe that we are better than them simply because we can think. Perhaps not thinking is sometimes a better choice."

With how much evil Acrypha had seen in her entire life, she really didn't have any reason not to believe that sane creatures are far worse than monsters.

"Yeah, that is true."

As they were like that, Hyun-Jae walked inside the tent.

"Talon?" Seeing him on the chair with his neck arched back.

"Hm…" The latter replied quietly, still deep in thought.

Seeing him in that state, Hyun-Jae pursed her lips as she thought for a moment before she decided to do something. Slowly approaching him, she stood behind his chair as she stared down into his eyes.

The latter stared back at her in a daze.

"Don't let it get to your head, ok? He is nothing. Just a small pest to get rid of in our path." She said in an unusually gentle tone. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

"... I know…" Talon closed his eyes as he replied calmly. "It's just… I have always been hot-blooded when it comes to dealing with this type of people."

'I'm not as composed as Hyun-Jae. Losing my temper from just hearing the story.' He thought to himself.

Even though she was clearly extremely angry, Hyun-Jae was able to keep her calm and think rationally. He admired that kind of composure a lot.

Hyun-Jae noticed all those emotions flash across his eyes. For a second, she was speechless. Nobody knew what was going through her head at that moment, not even Talon.

"I should probably go back to sco-" As the young man was about to rise up from the chair, Hyun-Jae's hands suddenly moved as she grabbed his face.

Talon's eyes widened in surprise as he stared at Hyun-Jae directly. Never in his life did he expect her to do such a thing as holding his face.

But, for some reason, just staring at her eyes made him go completely silent.

"There is no shame in feeling anger when such things happen. Having such a kind heart even when no one can hold you back or stop you from abusing that power…" She murmured as she smiled at him. "I do love that about you."

Talon: "..."

Talon's heart skipped a beat. Her words were such a surprise to him that he found himself unable to react properly.

"Hahaha, you have a funny look on your face." The girl chuckled when she saw how dumbfounded he was. Then, she lifted her left hand and tapped his forehead.

"I'm just… a little surprised…" Talon replied. "Mm, thank you for saying that.

"Don't worry about it. I was just being honest. As long as your heart remains as it is… I'm sure everything will be fine." With that, Hyun-Jae lifted her hands and allowed him to move.

Talon rose up and touched his face. 'Damn, was I blushing?'

"This Hyun-Jae girl is seriously something else. She made you blush twice in one day. Mr. Charming isn't in his prime anymore. Hahahaha!" Acrypha laughed amusedly.

"Shut up…"

Clicking his tongue, Talon stared at Hyun-Jae. "I understand what you mean. I won't let it get to my head. We will just deal with him and get over with it."

With that, he stood up. "I'm going to continue scouting the rest of the area. Maybe I will find some more information we can use."

*One Day Later*

With the dawn of a new day rising and the sun peeking through the cloudy sky, the survivor's camp was way busier than usual at such times. The reason for that was simple… Today, they were going to start moving back to the warehouse.

After scouting the entire area yesterday, no dangerous horde of monsters was found so, per plan, they decided to start moving. It helped that a good number of the injured students were able to stand on their feet.

Turned out that the monster cores Talon had given to the group contained a few good healing skills, increasing the number of healers in the group. Which accelerated the recovery of most injured students.

What remained after that was to prepare to leave which only took a few hours at most. By dawn, everyone was prepared and ready to move.

"Is everything ready?" Talon asked Go Young-Soon as he stared around him.

Everyone was standing in line, waiting to start moving. The ones who couldn't move were being carried by other students in the middle of the group.

"Everything's ready, leader. We're just waiting for your order to start moving."

"Ok, good. I guess there is nothing left. Are you ready, Hyun-Jae?"

"Always." The girl replied casually.

"Perfect, then… Before we move, I wanted to thank you all for holding this long. It was tough, painful, and devastating. We lost many of our good peers, friends, and family members. Now, it's the last stretch. Outside of here is a safe place we can stay in for a long time. A place that is warm, has food, supplies, and everything we need to live.

It's far better than this place. Time to move out of this hellhole, boys!"

"YEAAAAAAAAH!!!"

The entire group cheered powerfully. Their voices were filled with endless determination. It had been indeed a nightmare, each day was harder than the one before it. They went through all kinds of terrifying situations and yet they emerged victorious each time.

Now, that nightmare is merely a few hours away from being over. All they had to do was reach their last destination. A place where they can be at ease.

With that, the group of survivors started moving in union. The sound of their steps filled the entire campus. They weren't any normal students anymore… They were now seasoned warriors ready to face anything coming their way.

Their eyes lost all that innocence, leaving only a battle-hardened group of people, sharing a deeper bond than ever before.

Meanwhile, far away from where Talon and his group were.

Two men were walking through a tight corridor. One of them was tall with a very powerful physique and a terrifying aura to back it up. The other was also muscular yet in contrast was as timid as he could be as he walked behind the first man.

The atmosphere in the corridor was solemn and suffocating.

"Are you sure they're going to speak?" The first man asked coldly.

"... Mm, I… I already helped you capture them, sir… I don't know if they will speak or not… But, I swear, what I told you is the truth!" The second man replied in a desperate tone.

"... Is that so? Good job."

Hearing those words, the second man's eyes beamed as he was about to speak.

"Thank yo-"

*Swish* *BANG*

"Blurgh!"

Before he could even react, a fist smashed into his stomach, making him fall to the ground unable to breathe. Then, the first man ruthlessly stomped on his head.

"Our agreement was… You make those two speak and when they do, you get what I told you I would give you. Was I not clear? Perhaps I spoke in a language you can't speak?" He asked as he bent down a little to stare at the terrified man.

"Please... Spare... Me..."

Feeling the crushing weight on his skull, the man's face turned extremely red as he felt extreme pain. If he stayed in that position, his head was going to get crushed.

*CRACK*

"Please..."
