Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

Chapter 42 - 42- Two Monsters (Part 2)



Rim Kyung knew his guards better than anyone else and was aware of their strength. They were real professionals that he paid a lot of money to hire. In fact, all of them were soldiers in war before, a very battle-hardened group.

Yet, three of them were suddenly beaten up easily as if it were nothing. His eyes could've almost popped out of their sockets from shock.

'How strong did he get from killing monsters?' Gulping down a mouthful of saliva, Rim Kyung noticed Talon staring at him and it made him flinch and retreat in fear.

Talon appeared like the boogeyman in his eyes and he couldn't get that out of his head. Rim Kyung was completely wrecked by fear, and so he acted upon it.

"All the guards! Attack him, now!!" He said as he ran back.

All the guards looked at each other with difficult looks. They had seen what happened and they would be lying if they said they wanted to go. However, the young master had told them to attack and so they had to.

Talon stared at them with a smirk as he started swinging the spear in the air like a baseball bat. The sound of the weapon slicing through the air was terrifying.

"*Gulp* Fuck it! We're 6 and he's 1! We can overpower him!"

"Yeah!"

Using that logic as their only hope, the guards immediately rushed toward Talon as they yelled at the top of their lungs.

"Need any help, Talon?" Hyun-Jae asked as she stepped forward.

"No, I will deal with these idiots myself. Take care of the other students, especially the ones who are still following Rim Kyung." He replied.

Hyun-Jae nodded her head and then moved away, leaving Talon to face the 6 guards.

'The first time, they were 3. Can I beat 6 without getting hit?' He thought to himself as he took a fighting stance.

"Let's see."

*Swish*

Like a flash, Talon dashed forward at top speed, taking the guards by surprise. Before they could even react, he already reached the first one and swung his spear, hitting him in the side like the first one.

"AGGGH!!" He screamed in pain as he flew to the side.

At the same time, Talon sidestepped, dodging the second baton before punching the guard in his stomach.

The man spat out a mouthful of saliva as he was knocked back.

'Two down…' Talon's eyes moved around sharply as he took in all the details and things that were happening. His passive skill Enhanced Focus was magnificent in this regard.

It gave his senses a huge boost whenever he was in a fight. He could notice the smallest movements that his brain would compute almost instantly. Even though it was still level 1, Talon felt like he could see everything 360 degrees around him.

[Ding!]

[Your passive skill Enhanced Focus has leveled up.]

The moment Talon saw the notification, he felt the change almost instantly. His senses suddenly felt even clearer and sharper out of nowhere. His eyes could take in even more details than before and his ears could hear even smaller sounds. Also, Talon started feeling something different.

Without the need for him to use his eyes or ears, he could sense that people were standing behind him. It was a very faint feeling but he was sure it was there.

'What is this?' He thought to himself for a moment before he pushed those thoughts away and focused on the fight. He didn't care about it for now.

The third guard came from behind him and swung the baton from the side to take him by surprise. Talon didn't waste time and guarded with his spear. He could've simply taken the hit since his body was three times stronger than that of an average human but he was challenging himself not to be hit.

*BANG*

The baton smashed against the handle of the spear. Talon used that opportunity and jumped in the air, kicking the man with his leg.

The attack connected with the man's arm as a crisp cracking sound reverberated around. Like a slaughtered chicken, the man was blasted away as he smashed against the ground in front of the shocked crowd.

At this point, what Talon was doing looked like a miracle rather than reality.

"Is this… Is this how strong you can get with this power?" One asked.

"I don't know. But, if I can become like that, then I'm ready to go out and fight!"

"Me too! He looks so cool!"

What Talon wasn't aware of was that his show of strength had actually made the students even more eager to go out. They all wanted to be like him simply because he looked amazing at that moment.

His speed, accuracy, strength, and everything else were top-notch. He was akin to a character in a movie with how ridiculous the stunts he was pulling off were.

Meanwhile, the one being talked about was completely focused on the fight. The remaining three guards tried to encircle him but didn't attack out of fear. They were terrified by what they saw.

'What the hell is going on?!!!' Rim Kyung watched from the background with a pale face.

'H-He's a monster… A monster!!'

"Come on, guys. Let's get this over with." Talon stood up and sighed. "I need to shove a boot in your leader's mouth and rest, I'm really tired."

His words were nonchalant and casual as if he was talking with friends. It was clearly a mockery toward the guards and that pissed them off.

"Fuck!!" Finding no other choice, one of the guards rushed forward followed by the other guards.

Talon could easily locate the three of them and he was ready to fight. But, at the last second, the three guards suddenly halted and then fell to the ground, prostrating.

"Please spare us!!" They yelled at the same time.

"... Huh?" Talon looked at them with confusion.

"W-We don't want to fight anymore! We will follow you!!"

"..." Talon looked at them with a 'What the hell?' expression. He never expected to hear this from the guards.

"Why do you want to follow me?"

"Because you're very strong!"

'Eeeh, I guess that makes sense since I have beaten up 6 of them. But, seriously, where is your loyalty, guys?'

"Please let us work under you. We will be useful!"

"Interesting." Rubbing his chin, he contemplated their words.

"Hey!! What the hell are you doing?! Get up and fight!!" Rim Kyung saw that and was outraged by it. He hurled insults at the guards but they ignored him.

'No, no, no, no… Come on!! Why are they not listening?!'

"I guess it's over then." Talon shrugged as he turned around to face Rim Kyung.

"These three idiots realized that it was a pointless fight. You can't blame them." Talon smiled.

"Shut up!!"

"Ok, ok, so loud. Let's get this over with, Rim Kyung. I'm not backing away from my claim. Your boot is going be lodged into your mouth in… 30 seconds?" Talon said as he looked at a non-existent watch.

Realizing the huge catastrophe he was in, Rim Kyung started retreating, he turned around and started running toward the exit as fast as he could.

"Really? You're going to make me chase you?" Talon sighed as he suddenly dashed forward at top speed, crossing a good chunk of the distance between them in a few seconds.

"Hah… Hah... Stay away!! No!!" Rim Kyung yelled with a pale face as he tried to run as fast as he could, but, it didn't take long for Talon to reach him.

"Boo!" Peeking at him from the side, Talon made a playful scary sound.

"AGHHH!!" Rim Kyung screamed before he found himself falling to the ground. Talon made him trip with his leg.

*BANG*

Smashing face-first into the ground, Rim Kyung rolled around before he finally stopped.

"AGH! My teeth!!!" Grabbing his mouth, Rim Kyung screamed in pain. Blood was gushing out endlessly from his broken teeth.

Talon approached him and then put his foot on top of his chest as he rested his arm on it.

"So much for making me prostate like a dog, Rim Kyung."

"Y-You… YOU BATHTARD!!!"

"Pfft, hahaha! Bathtard! Hahaha!" Talon started laughing.

"Thut up!! (Shut up!!)"

Talon started laughing loudly the more Rim Kyung spoke. He couldn't pronounce a single word right.

"Stop, please! I can't breathe!" Wiping the tears from his eyes, Talon finally looked down. "Sigh, you know, I'm sure you could've been a great leader, man. Have you not become an egotistical piece of shit, your speech skills would've led you to great things. But, you mistakenly thought that you were better than everyone else. Idiot, without those people next to you, how do you expect to be a leader?"

"..."

Rim Kyung looked at Talon silently. His mess of a face had a sour expression on it. For one reason or another, Talon's words resonated with him on a way deeper level than he thought.

'Without those people next to you, how do you expect to be a leader?'

That particular sentence hit a string in Rim Kyung's heart. At some point in the past, he recalled having those thoughts. He recalled being enthusiastically ready to serve his people as their leader.

However, at some point in his life that he can't remember, he diverged from the right path and went down this dark hole. He became violent, terrifying, ruthless, and arrogant. He forgot why he even wanted to be a leader in the first place.

Without realizing it, tears had already welled up in his eyes.

"H-Huh? I'm… crying…" Touching his face, he felt the wetness on his fingertips.

"I guess you aren't completely irredeemable after all."

"... Fuck… This is frustrating… Goddamit!!" Crying silently as he tried to wipe his face, Rim Kyung's emotions spilled out like a dam.

"Yeah, it is frustrating. But you know what's even more frustrating?" Talon asked.

"..."

"The fact that I'm still going to shove your boot in your mouth."

"H-Huh?"

Before Rim Kyung could understand what he heard, Talon had already taken his boot off.

"Say aaah!"

"What?! No! Wait! I'm sorry!! I'm really sorry, please!!"

*Swish*

For a few seconds, the muffled screams of a man echoed in the gymnasium.
