Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

Talon froze in his place as his eyes widened. He had to take a whole second to register what just happened as his irises moved down to look at the girl hugging him tightly at that moment. Her body was pressed tightly against his in a very intimate position.

It was so unexpected that Talon forgot that he was in hellish pain a second ago. Feeling Hyun-Jae's arms around his neck, and her chest against him was too much sensory overload to even be ready for it.

"Mmm…" In the end, he made an awkward sound as he lifted his hand slowly and tapped her on the back awkwardly. "Glad to see you too." He said the first thing that came to mind which he immediately regretted the next second.

'What the fuck do you even say when a beautiful girl hugs you out of nowhere?' He screamed in his head. What was even worse than that was the fact that Talon started feeling his body reacting the next second which would be disastrous.

Even though Talon never really sought love or interaction with the opposite sex that much due to his hard life, that didn't mean that he didn't want to experience it. After all, he was a healthy 21-year-old man.

'Clear thoughts, Talon. Clear thoughts…' He repeated in his head like a mantra as he struggled to keep himself calm.

"Thank god…" As Talon was fighting the demons inside his head, he heard Hyun-Jae's small murmur which broke his thoughts and made him look down. "You didn't wake up… For 6 days… I knew you would eventually come back… But, I was really worried." She confessed in a relieved tone.

Hearing that, all of Talon's bad thoughts vanished completely as his expression changed visibly. He realized how brutal it must've been on Hyun-Jae. To handle everything on her own while still not knowing whether Talon would even wake up or not was too much mental pressure even for someone as brilliant as she was.

He was sure that if he was in her place, he would've been heavily affected too, perhaps even more than she did. Not to mention the fragile nature of the situation they were in.

'She really had it rough…' He frowned.

Hyun-Jae's face was buried in his neck so she couldn't really see it happening. However, a second later, she felt Talon's arm wrap around her back as he hugged her back with whatever strength he had in his body at the time.

At first, she was taken aback but then, she simply closed her eyes and went silent. She knew that this was far from what she would normally do and she would probably die from embarrassment later, but, at that moment, she simply accepted the hug.

For some reason, just the feeling of his warmth made her feel at ease. All the exhaustion, stress, and pressure that she went through the past few days vanished as if it was never there.

Time passed slowly for the two of them as they remained in that position. They didn't have to say anything as they understood each other well.

"I'm sorry for taking so long to wake up." Eventually, Talon spoke in a calm yet apologetic tone.

However, Hyun-Jae shook her head faintly while still in his embrace. "It's fine. You woke up now, so it's all fine."

"Mm, thank you for saving me… again…" He said. "And for keeping up with my recklessness."

At that moment, Hyun-Jae pulled away slightly and stared at him from a close distance. Her clear, beautiful eyes captivated him completely. A small smile bloomed on her face as she replied.

"Are you finally admitting that you're a tad bit too reckless?" She asked amusedly, taking the young man by surprise for a second.

"You don't seem like you hate that, do you?" Talon chuckled.

"Depends, if it means you will get half your body carved out, then yeah, I do hate it. However, if it means having some fun, then why not?"

Talon had awakened the adventurous spirit within Hyun-Jae that she never knew had in her. Going beyond the normal and living as you want without restraints was something that she learned from him in the short period of time they knew each other and it was by far the best thing Hyun-Jae ever experienced in her life.

"Hmm, Lady Ran Hyun-Jae is learning bad habits," Talon replied mischievously.

The latter tapped his shoulder lightly, making him squint a little.

"Ouch…" He smiled as he pretended like he was in too much pain.

"You deserve that for trying to tease me."

"I'm a sick person, you can't hit me," Talon replied.

"You seem fine to me." Hyun-Jae rolled her eyes as she finally pulled away completely and sat down next to him. "So, jokes aside, how are you feeling?"

"Hm, my body feels heavy and I still feel a lot of pain on my side. But, other than that, I'm fine."

In the six days he spent in a coma, most of Talon's injuries completely healed. The laceration in his leg was now closed and the scar on his face was also on the verge of disappearing completely.

The only injury that remained was the huge one in his abdomen. Talon's internal organs took some time to heal and get back to good shape and it was now in the process of closing the skin and muscle tissue.

With Gu Iseul's healing and Talon's monstrous 70 healing points, such a miraculous fast recovery became possible.

"Can I see the injury?" Hyun-Jae asked.

"Sure…" Talon murmured as he opened his jacket and pulled it up.

The girl then peeked closer as she inspected the injury with her eyes. "Hmm, it's definitely looking better. In a few more days, you should be completely healed. During that time, you should not move." Hyun-Jae smiled.

"A few more days? I'm not waiting a few more days here. I've already been in a coma for six days."

'Wait… Now, that I think about it… How was I asleep for six days? I swear the dream I was in lasted 60 minutes at most.' He thought to himself.

Talon's entire experience wasn't long by any means. He didn't know whether it was simply a lucid dream of some sort or if there was any special meaning behind it.

'I should ask Acrypha about it.' He noted in his head.

"Sigh, you're still far from ready to leave this room. You should take the rest of the day off at least. I won't be at ease if you move around with that gruesome injury." Hyun-Jae said.

"Ugh, fine fine. But, only one day. We have many things we need to do."

For starters, Talon needed to get back to pace with everything that happened in the past few days. He also needed to start his training again after stopping it for a while.

But, the most important task by far was to finally start planning the infiltration of the research center. It has been exactly two weeks since Talon and Hyun-Jae arrived on the campus, 13 days more than what Talon expected.

He was already eager to finish this mission as soon as possible, so everything that happened in the past two weeks was in a sense, a hindrance from his initial goal.

"Yeah, there are many things you need to know about. But, for now, just rest." Hyun-Jae said as she stood up. "I will come back later to check on you, ok?"

"Hmm, ok. But, you don't really have to check on me that often, you know? I already owe you too much." Talon said with an awkward smile.

"You owe me nothing, good sir. If anything, we're even now." Hyun-Jae pulled her tongue out jokingly as she walked away.

"Wait, wha-"

"See you later~"

Before Talon could even understand what she meant, Hyun-Jae had already left in a hurry as if she didn't want to answer his questions.

"That woman…" Sighing, Talon rested his head back on the mattress again. "Now, what should I do for the rest of the day? Oh, wait, now that I remember."

Without hesitation, Talon summoned the notifications he received a few days ago that had been waiting for him the entire time. He was eager to see the rewards he got after killing that monster.

The first thing he noticed was the 4 levels he gained. At this point, Talon was on level 23 with 12 free points to allocate. It was a very good number that he was naturally happy with. Then, he saw the points he gained for killing the Grim Roamer.

"Holy shit! +15 Points for all stats?! That is wild!" He blurted out when he saw the number.

Forget about all stats, if Talon had gained +15 for one stat, he would be on cloud nine. Yet, all his stats received that boost. It was safe to say that he went through another evolution in a sense.

'I'm excited to see how stronger I become when I heal.'

Just the thought of feeling his new power was making him extremely eager to return to work. But, for now, he simply had to imagine it.

Finally, his eyes fell on the last notification which made him raise an eyebrow.

"A second class?" Talon murmured. "I didn't know you could get multiple classes at once. Interesting, 'Boundless Breaker', sounds like a very cool name. What does it do though?"

[Boundless Breaker: You're the only creature in existence to do the impossible. You broke the norm and soared beyond. Your achievement will remain etched in history for eons to come. This secondary class gives you a 20% boost in attack power when using any weapon, a 10% increase in all stats, and a 25% increase in strength when fighting stronger enemies.]

Talon: "..."
