Dimension Weaver: My Wife Is The Dragon Empress!

The room went completely silent for a moment as the two looked at each other. Talon was trying to understand what Arryn was saying while Arryn tried to keep himself from crying anymore.

What the boy just said was quite surprising especially when Talon wasn't even anticipating it. When he heard the boy say that he lied, he thought that it wouldn't be something big considering Arryn's personality.

But, he couldn't be any more wrong about that. The boy had just dropped a bombshell on him. A few moments passed before Talon finally snapped out of it and shook his head. "Wait, let me get this straight. So, humans have reached the Divine Piercer and attacked your race and those humans were the Sky Seekers?"

Even as he was saying it, it sounded like such a funny thing. Not because Talon thought the Sky Seekers were some kind of heroes. But the fact something like this happened was still really odd.

"Yes… It happened a few years ago… When the Divine Piercer landed on the ground, they ambushed us and tried to take it down. My people fought them as much as they could. We lost many souls and I lost one of my brothers during that time…" The boy said as he sniffed loudly.

"..." Blinking silently, Talon tried to find the words to say only to go silent again. "They did that… Why did you hide that from me?"

This entire time, Arryn could've told him and Talon would've had a different idea of who these people are. Granted, he didn't trust that they were the heroes they painted themselves to be, or at least not as perfect as they might seem. But still, the Sky Seekers turned out to be the main reason why the Azurians were living in the sky.

"I couldn't… I was too scared… Talon, please listen to me. Those people are monsters in human skin. If they find out, both of us are dead. They are too strong and too ruthless. I have seen it with my own eyes." He said. "I didn't know there were this many of them scattered around the world.

You need to leave now."

"..." Talon closed his eyes for a moment as he lifted his head. Taking a few moments, he inhaled a long breath before finally opening his eyes. "Ok, I'm calm now."

"Huh?"

"So those bastards are still chasing after your people. Who do they think they are?" Talon said in a cold tone. His eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.

"Wha-"

"You've given me another reason why I won't be leaving. Some people have to pay." Talon said coldly.

"..." The boy stared at him.

"I won't run away nor do I have a reason to. I said that I'm going to help you and I am going to keep my word even if I have to risk my life." He said.

'Not that I have any other choice. If I want to leave this world, I have to do this. But, now I won't feel any worse getting rid of a bunch of scum.' He thought to himself.

He knew that what he was going to do carried some danger with it, perhaps far more danger than anything he had ever faced in his life. But, that didn't mean he was going to run away because of it. Many would consider fear to be the reason why people run away, but Talon took it differently.

Fear was his main drive to do what he did. He became strong because he feared losing his loved ones. He became strong because he feared that he might die and now, he was going to help Arryn because he feared never going back to Earth ever again.

It all linked up together perfectly to form his entire goal. He simply didn't want to feel fear ever again. He wanted to climb so high that nothing could ever threaten him.

"Don't let it get to your head, Arryn. We are going to make it, you just need to believe." Talon said that. "Don't you want to take revenge for your brother and people?"

"I… I want…" Looking down, the boy closed his eyes. He had seen it in Talon's eyes, that glint that he wanted to have. The look of endless ambition, to always aim higher even when you reach the stars.

He wanted to be like him. Even though they barely met recently, Arryn saw in Talon what he wanted to be like in the future. To have that confidence that never wanes. Yet, he was so far away from it that it was almost frustrating.

Still, he knew that he couldn't simply desire something and get it, he had to work hard to get it. One step at a time, he can walk on the path of growth.

"I want to make them pay!" The boy looked up with a serious expression. "I will make them pay."

His response made Talon smile as he crouched down to be at Arryn's level. "Then let's do it together." He extended his hand to the boy for a handshake.

"*Sniff*…" The boy wiped his tears before he also smiled. "Yes."

Then, he took Talon's hand and shook it with all the power he had within him. That simple gesture had established a pact between them. As simple as it was, the effect it would have in the future was going to shake the entire world.

But, for now, at that very moment, neither of the two knew about that. They had no idea that the wheel of fate was going to start moving again, faster than ever. But, that's a story for another time.

***

Meanwhile, in a far distant place, millions of dimensions away, on a small blue planet. The second expansion had just hit the small earth and changed it completely. If this first Expansion was a simple preparation for Earth to go through its evolution, then the second one was the true start of that evolution.

The world expanded even further, growing twice in size in mere days after that. Tsunamis and natural disasters hit every corner of the globe and changed the entire shape of every single continent.

Many souls died, monsters and animals alike. Even the remaining minority of humans suffered a strong blow. Yet, as surprising as it was, many survived this ordeal. After all, this wasn't the first natural disaster they went through and it won't be the last. No one can underestimate the human race's ability to adapt and thrive even in the worst conditions.

Especially now that they were far stronger than ever before.

*South Korea: Seoul*

A young man sat down in a quiet, dark room in front of a desk. His face, only lit by a small bulb right above his head, was extremely handsome, like a prince straight out of a fairytale. However, that beautiful face was completely distorted with a strong frown and a cold glare.

Resting his back against his chair, he exhaled a long breath before he looked down. There, on the table, a small notebook lay quietly. It seemed worn and old but still in good enough shape to be used.

His eyes stared at the notebook for a while before he finally bent forward and picked up a small pen before opening the notebook.

Moving through the pages, he skimmed through the written words with lazy eyes as if this wasn't the first time he had seen them. After all, this was his notebook and those were things he wrote down in it himself.

It was a habit he grew to like years ago. He heard that it was a great way to express oneself without the need to show it to others. It helped him leave all the weight he carried on his shoulders in this notebook.

Eventually, he reached a fresh new page and finally put the pen on the paper. Taking a moment, he thought of what to write before finally starting.

'March 15th, 20XX.' He wrote at the start of the page and then went down and continued.

'Today, nothing major happened. The route between Seoul and Gwangju has been linked successfully. Plans to secure the road even further are in progress. We have already started working on developing both cities at the same time and the pace is quite fast. We have enough manpower to do so.' He stopped there and his face only grew darker after that.

'Things have been smooth on that side. But, no one seems to care. All I see are dead expressions of lost hope, perhaps for the same reason why every single person was simply doing the things they were told to, no feelings involved. They have lost something valuable to them. Perhaps the worst of them all was the pre-' Reaching that, he scratched the word halfway before he wrote on top of it.

'Hyun-Jae had changed completely. Ever since 'that' happened, she had turned into a different person. She drowned herself in work and training the entire day without a moment of resting. I tried to stop her but she refused to even talk outside of work.

She isn't an expressive person, to begin with, but I understand her, and I can know for sure when she is happy, sad, angry, frustrated, and every single other emotion she might express.'

Stopping there, he exhaled a long breath before he continued. 'But, she is none of that. Whenever I look into her eyes, all I see is… Emptiness. She wasn't feeling anything. I have never seen her like that before. Not even when she had lost her sister, years ago.

I cannot do anything about it. Even as someone who knew her for years and grew by her side. I really don't know what to do. If he was here, things would've been different. Even if i hate to admi it. It is true.

He has that kind of effect on her abd everyone else.'

Those words felt like a stone stuck in his throat. He clenched his teeth for a moment before he finally looked down at the end of the page and wrote.

'Days since he died: 45 days.'
