Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!-Chapter 39- Twisted Rim Kyung (Part 2)
39 Chapter 39- Twisted Rim Kyung (Part 2)
The voice was soft and rather respectful as playful as it sounded. However, the moment Talon heard it, he frowned hard. For some reason, he really didn't like how it sounded and was about to close his ears just to not listen to it.
The feeling was so intense that it took Talon by surprise. He had never experienced it before in his life. The young man scratched his head confusedly. 'What's wrong with me?'
Falling into deep thought, Talon tried to understand the origin of this odd feeling. In the end, he gave up and shook those thoughts away. At the same time, the door fully opened and a young man walked out in confident strides.
He was rather short with a slim build hidden under formal clothes fit for ceremonies and business meetings. He had a good-looking face and well-combed black hair. He wore a pair of glasses and an earring on his left ear.
Looking at everyone with a nonchalant smile, not caring how they saw him.
"I never known you for someone who would use violence, Miss Ran Hyun-Jae~" He finally spoke with a smile.
"Then you don't know me well enough." Hyun-Jae retorted with a cold look.
"Hahaha, perhaps I really don't know you. I would've never expected you to have a barbaric side. I would've had to dig deeper."
Staring at Hyun-Jae with a confident smile, Rim Kyung sent her a jab using his words. That was his method whenever he was dealing with her. He would try to rile her up and get her to make a mishap which he can use to his own advantage.
"Considering the fact that you wanted to leave us outside for the monsters, your barbaric side doesn't need digging to find." Talon barged into the conversation with a small smile. "Oops, my bad, I should've not said that in front of your lackeys." He added at the end as he covered his mouth with his hand.
Everyone immediately looked at Talon silently. They all had varying degrees of shock. Especially Rim Kyung whose confident smile broke for a split second before it came back.
Talon secretly gave Hyun-Jae a side glance that she understood immediately.
'I have your back, don't worry.' He said.
Hyun-Jae's heart felt warm and her face relaxed considerably. Talon's reply truly helped ease her anger.
"And who might you be?" Rim Kyung asked.
"Talon."
"I never heard of your name."
"You don't know me, but I know you. You're the dude that keeps saying weird nonsense in the campus courtyard every day." Talon said innocently.
"Pfft…" Hyun-Jae almost exploded in laughter when she heard what he said. It was brutally hard not to laugh when Talon was clearly toying with Rim Kyung as if it were nothing.
'Holy shit! Mister Talon is really not holding back! So cool!' The three students mused with admiration.
'Weird nonsense…' Rim Kyung's well-crafted expression, honed by years of social skills, was about to crumble completely.
"Ehem, I do not say weird nonsense. I give speeches that people of your brain capacity can't comprehend."
"No wonder nobody apart from your club members listens to those speeches. You guys are seriously a group of geniuses, aren't you?"
'Oh no!' Hyun-Jae's cold face was on the verge of crumbling as she tried to hold her breath. She shouldn't laugh in such a tense situation but Talon's words weren't helping.
'This fucker!!' If his previous words were insulting, Rim Kyung saw what Talon said now as complete and utter mockery. He couldn't just let a nobody treat him this way.
"Listen here, pal. I run this place and everyone here is following my orders. You came here seeking my help. The minimum you should do is to keep your dumb jokes to yourself, understood?" Rim Kyung said with a threatening glare.
The atmosphere tensed up again as Talon and Rim Kyung looked at each other silently. Everyone around felt the coldness emanating from the two.
'What's up with this guy… He made boss angry…'
'I have never seen him this annoyed before…'
Rim Kyung's followers were shocked to see how their leader reacted. They knew him to be very calm and nonchalant which allowed him to keep control of any conversation he got into. He wasn't the president of political studies for no reason. He was a warrior of words and a very good one at that.
"Hmm, you know, I wasn't intending to give you any face since you're very annoying. But, I guess it's only right that I play by your rules if I'm going to enter this place." Talon smiled as he approached Rim Kyung, easily towering over him.
Then, out of nowhere, he pulled his spear and gently put the blade against Rim Kyung's neck. "Talon..."
"Oh no…"
"Boss!!" The two students were about to rush to their boss. Never did they think Talon would dare to aim his weapon at RIm Kyung.
"Stay right there, boys. You don't want to see what I would do if you move a single more step." Talon said as he stared directly at Rim Kyung. "Now, let me apologize for my previously rude behavior. I should've not done that. Would you let me enter the gymnasium…"
Talon then pushed the blade a little further, making contact with Rim Kyung's throat before he added with a smile. "Please?"
Rim Kyung was completely frozen in his place not knowing what to do. The feeling of the sharp blade on his neck truly terrified him to no extent. Never did he find himself in such a situation before.
'This crazy bastard!!' He cursed in his head.
Go Young-Soon and his two friends were hyperventilating in secret as they watched the scene. Their hearts were beating loudly from fear and excitement at the same time. They were witnessing the person they hated the most get treated like a complete clown.
The only two who weren't shocked beyond words were Hyun-Jae and Acrypha.
"Didn't you say you were afraid of killing humans? Hahaha!" The floating beauty said with a playful tone.
As for Hyun-Jae, she simply watched with satisfied silence. She didn't mind seeing Rim Kyung being threatened since he deserved it. If anything, she didn't even care about the fact that he was being threatened, her focus was completely on Talon.
'Cool…' She thought to herself as she looked at her companion. The way he handled the situation was impressive.
"So, your answer?" Talon asked again when he noticed Rim Kyung's pale expression.
"... I swear you won't get away with this." He murmured under his breath as he balled his fists tightly. "I can't hear you~ Can you repeat what you just said?"
Rim Kyung looked back at his lackeys with a dark expression. "Let them in."
"... Y-Yes sir!"
Even though it was clearly a threat, they had to comply with their boss' orders.
"Go ahead, you can access the gymnasium." They moved to the side, allowing them inside.
'This is wild!!' Go Young-Soon, Mo Shin, and Hei-Ran stepped forward hesitantly.
"Go ahead." "Y-Yes!"
They said as they walked inside the place followed by Talon and Hyun-Jae.

"I know his type. All barks and no bites." As the two talked, Rim Kyung walked behind them with a very dark expression on his face. Long gone is his attempt to be the playful and well-spoken man he wanted to be. He was now boiling with anger and endless hatred toward Talon and Hyun-Jae.
They disrespected him, mocked him, and threatened him. He would be damned if he ignored all of that.
'You bastards just wait. Thinking that you won just because you threatened me? I will definitely destroy both of you. I won't spare you!!' His eyes flared with desire for revenge.

The gymnasium was one of the biggest buildings on the campus. It had all the facilities related to a huge variety of sports along with bathrooms, showering areas, and even an Olympic swimming pool.
It could easily contain all the students on the campus which was the reason why many rushed toward it.
The first thing that welcomed the group the moment they entered the place was the huge number of students residing in it.
'....' Talon stared around, shocked at what he was seeing.
The entire place was filled with people, moving around like brainless zombies. Everyone had a dead look on their faces. Terror, hunger, and worry for their loved ones had taken a huge toll on their minds.
He could even see a good number of them hugging their knees in a corner as they cried silently.
"Mom… Where are you?"
"I want to get out of here… I don't want to stay here…"
"I'm going to die… I'm going to die… I'm going to die…"
Such words were being said everywhere and it added another layer of gloominess over the place. "This is far worse than I expected…" Hyun-Jae murmured with a frown.
No one seemed like they were capable of moving let alone doing anything.
