Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

Chapter 237 - 237- Busan (Part 2)

"Right now?" Shin-Il asked.

"Yeah, right now. I need to take a shower first though." Talon stood up and started walking to the door.

"Shouldn't we call and tell them that they should remain there?" Sophie asked confusedly.

That made Talon stop in his tracks and look over his shoulder. "No, if we call them, it will only increase the suspicion. We need to work without them knowing that we are going there."

Talon suspected that this man had a way to contact his base and tell them everything in case he realized something was off. If he wanted to deal with this without alerting his enemies, he had to work in secret and do everything under their radar.

"That's the best course for now. I will get prepared. How many should go?" Hyun-Jae asked.

"We can't go with a big number. At most two or three is optimal."

'We have to deal with this matter as quietly as possible.' Talon's eyes flashed with a weird glint as he left the room before anyone could speak. 'Whatever happens next is going to change many things.'

Heading back to his hotel room and immediately hopped into the shower. Opening the faucet, cold water started rolling down over his face. Standing there, Talon closed his eyes as he let the blood drip down his body and coat the floor with its ominous color.

Even though it was extremely cold, his skin didn't feel uncomfortable. If anything, the cold feeling made his mind clear up and he felt a little more relaxed. This was a calm moment before things would immediately go back to craziness.

'Fuuh, it's going to be fine. It's just one person. I need to get rid of him and then leave no traces behind.' He thought to himself.

He knew that killing him would also come with a lot of risks, it was way better than leaving such a knife close to his throat at all times.

At least there was the chance that they could pass this off as him dying in the ocean or somewhere else.

Exhaling a long breath, Talon continued his shower with a calmer mind. By the time he was done, he wore a towel and came out to change. That's when he heard a knock on the door.

Walking to the door as he dried his hair, he opened it. There, he saw Hyun-Jae waiting for him. When her eyes fell on him, she was stunned.

Since Talon was only wearing a towel that covered his legs and crotch up to his belly button, his torso was completely exposed and it was simply jaw-dropping. At this point, Talon's body had reached a new level of perfection.

Every muscle in his body was worked to its utmost potential and more. It was a herculean physique with every sense of the word and Hyun-Jae can see that very clearly.

Without realizing it, she secretly gulped down a mouthful of saliva before she averted her eyes quickly before she could feel anything else.

"Hyun-Jae?" Talon spoke to her. "Is something wrong?"

"Huh? Oh, no, not at all. Sorry, I came too early when you're still not finished." She said as she turned around.

"It's fine, I was gonna be out in a few minutes. What's up?"

Without looking back, she said. "I wanted to tell you that the three who are going are me, you, and Sophie." She said.

"Hmm, that's good enough. We can handle this easily." He nodded his head.

They were the most versatile trio by far so even in the off chance things out of hand, they had more tools to handle the situation better than anyone else. What one of them lacks the other can complete.

"Yeah, that's basically it. I will leave you now."

"Ok." Without realizing the blushing look on Hyun-Jae's face, Talon closed the door behind him as he walked back inside. As he moved through the corridor, his eyes landed on a mirror and he halted immediately as he stared at his reflection.

"..."

His eyes trailed down to his naked torso and his face darkened. "Fuck! I forgot I was naked!! Holy…" Facepalming, Talon felt so embarrassed that he wanted the earth to swallow him right there and then.

He had forgotten that he didn't wear clothes and came out to Hyun-Jae basically fully naked. 'I'm a moron! That was why she was acting odd!'

"Very kind of you to do that, Talon." Acrypha laughed as she sat on the chair going through a magazine, unbothered by the fact that Talon was naked.

"What?"

"You gave us a good view." She winked at him with a smile.

"Where is the good view, goddammit! I'm here basically naked and being a pervert!"

"Oh, you have no idea." She giggled.

Sighing, he ignored the beauty teasing him and walked to his room to change. Acrypha's eyes slowly followed him till he closed the door.

"You really have no idea…" She murmured to herself before she looked at the magazine again.

An hour later, near the entrance of the base. Hyun-Jae, Sophie, and Talon were preparing themselves for this emergency trip. Even though this was a hindrance to their plans and might take a day or two of time, it was better than nothing.

"Chin-Hwa and the rest are going to continue clearing the path while we're out," Talon said as he strapped his bag to the car and turned around to look at the sky. It was already evening and Busan was going to take a while to reach even if they go at full speed.

But, since the path to it was already clear enough, there wouldn't be major problems as Sophie told them.

"Hopefully, it won't take long," Sophie murmured to herself.

"It's easy enough not to worry about it too much." Hyun-Jae as she opened the door and took a seat inside.

"I hope so…" Sophie sighed and followed suit.

The two girls waited inside for a few moments before they looked out of the window. Talon was still standing outside, looking at the sky as if he was frozen in time.

"Talon? Is everything ok?" Hyun-Jae asked.

"Hm?" Those words snapped him out of his thoughts as he turned around. "Yeah, it's nothing… I was just… Yeah, let's go." Shaking his head as if to dismiss something, he got in the car and started driving.

Even though he seemed normal on the outside, Talon's mind was thinking of something. 'Why did I have that weird feeling a second ago?'

For some reason, the moment he looked up at the sky, he had his sixth sense react in a weird way. He didn't understand what that feeling was exactly but it bothered him a little. But, with nothing weird happening, he couldn't really prove that he was sensing something.

'Until I see something weird, I will just keep this in mind.' He thought to himself.

As the car drove through the streets, the sun was slowly setting on the horizon and the darkness of the night arrived again, casting its looming shadows over the entire world.

Location: Busan

The city of Busan is one of South Korea's most prominent locations. It was right to the south, near the Sea of Japan. A very beautiful coastal city with amazing locations, resorts, hotels, and beaches across the board, being one of the main tourist attractions of the country. However, this city was now turned into rubble with its former glory gone completely.

Except for a few locations here and there, nothing about it was pleasing for the eye anymore.

In a huge resort facing the sea was the place Hyun-Ki's men took after arriving there. It was by far the most optimal location for their operations and it was also massive enough to be used as a sturdy base.

"Did you receive any messages yet?" An older man walked into a room where another younger male was fidgeting with a device.

"No, nothing yet. Boss is probably busy or no one realized we sent a message yet. Let's wait for a day before we can send another message." The man replied with a not-so-convincing look on his face.

"You already know that he isn't giving us much time. We are in a pinch here!" The older man cursed as he sat down. "He is already threatening to break the ties just over a few fucking hours of waiting!"

"... I already know, you don't need to tell me. But, what the hell am I supposed to do? If we keep sending messages recklessly, it will only break the device!" The other man replied with a tired look on his face.

He had been working for the past 12 hours so he was beyond exhausted and wanted some rest. The pressure he was under along with his peers was unimaginable. The entire plan of their leader relied on what they could do so if they ruined things, it was going to be a disaster for them as Hyun-Ki wasn't someone to forgive grave mistakes.

"I don't know. I don't want my head to roll on the ground because of a fucking message. You better try and contact them again as soon as possible. I will try to-"

As he was about to speak, they heard a knock on the door and they turned around. The older man frowned as he slowly stood up and approached it.

"Who?"

"It's me, open the door." A masculine voice with a thick accent replied coldly. The familiar voice made them frown as they turned to look at each other silently.

"Is there a problem, sir?" The older man asked without opening the door.

"I'm here to personally send a message to Mr. Hyun-Ki. I decided that there is no need to let you speak in my stead."
