His words felt like a bucket of cold water that was dumped on Hyun-Jae's head as all her daze vanished and her eyes regained clarity completely. That's when she realized what happened and her heart sunk.
"Hah…" Groaning slightly, Talon fell on her chest again. Hyun-Jae's hands instinctively captured him.
That's when she discovered a second, horrifying fact. Talon's entire back was completely burnt off. His skin was scorched and cracked as it seeped blood. It was so bad that a normal person would throw up immediately from sheer horror.
"T-Talon… Talon!!" Her voice rose as she felt her entire world almost crumble at that moment. She thought that he had fallen unconscious and she almost panicked. However, the young man moved slowly again as he lifted his head.
"I'm fine… Hah, it's not that big of a deal."
Hyun-Jae completely ignored him as she rose up and inspected his injury closely. 'Oh no, his skin was completely peeled off… This is bad!'
