Ileyna’s reincarnation.

Upon hearing those words, Ha-yeon felt her heart stop.

It was something she hadn’t expected at all.

‘No, to be honest… I had a hunch.’

The memories of ‘Ileyna’ that had suddenly surfaced several times.

Why a Constellation, known to be almost a bystander, was helping Ha-yeon so much.

And there were other strange things that had happened.

It wasn’t certain. That’s why she wasn’t sure.

That’s what she had been thinking, but she had been expecting it… and it was real.

“…Then… am I Ileyna or Baek Ha-yeon now?”

The current me.

Not a serious question, just simple curiosity. When she asked which of the two she was, he answered too easily.

“Of course, it’s Baek Ha-yeon.”

He was now speaking informally to her.

But she didn’t bother to bring it up.

“You don’t have many memories of Ileyna. Besides, you’ve lived as Baek Ha-yeon for much longer, and it’s your identity, right?”

That’s right.

Ileyna’s memories weren’t that many yet, so of course, Baek Ha-yeon was the main one.

Demon King’s Soul Fragment.

Fragments of Ileina.

That’s why she had forgotten her past life… and now, only her appearance was the same, she was almost a different person.

At first, she thought it was just a lucky chance, but he knew about it and contacted her.

Was it fate?

She was so grateful to him now.

Anyway, she chuckled at his answer and said to Hairel.

“By the way… how are you going to catch Gaia?”

As soon as she heard that story, Ha-yeon immediately realized.

This person was really going to kill Gaia, Godhood.

She had heard it before, but now that she heard the explanation about Godhood, she realized how absurd his actions were.

And as much as that, there must be an answer for it.

As if that was the answer, he smiled and raised one finger on his right hand.

“There’s only one way.”

A way to kill Godhood.

As it was a way to kill such a high Godhood, there were few ways and the method was difficult.

But still, the most feasible method.

“You become Godhood.”

“Ah, I see… huh?”

“You have to become Godhood.”

And as much as that, Hairel’s words were too absurd.

Become Godhood, if it was that easy, wouldn’t anyone be able to do it?

He smiled faintly at her words and replied.

“The conditions for becoming Godhood are very simple. You only need to meet one condition.”

The way to become Godhood, a supreme absolute being, was simpler than she thought.

“Contacting the Source of the world.”

Contacting it ‘directly’ even once.

That was the condition.

The problem was.

“What is the Source of the world?”

The Source of the world.

The words were too abstract. The Source of the world, it was almost a word that philosophers would use.

But he seemed to have expected her reaction and pointed at her.

“It’s there. You’re using it right now.”

“…What is it…?”

“System.”

As soon as she heard those words, she remembered the System that he had briefly explained to her before.

The System was nothing less than the world itself.

It had existed since the creation of the world and had now been transformed into a blue screen, but in the past, it was an existence that would help humans in many forms.

The world itself… that meant that the System was the Source.

But there was one loophole here.

“We’re using the System, but we’re not Godhood?”

As he said, I’m using the System now.

But I’m not Godhood. The other Hunters are the same.

When she pointed out that loophole, Hairel replied as if it was obvious.

“You’re using the System, but you’re not using the ‘Source’ itself.”

“Didn’t you say the System was the Source?”

“And I also said you have to touch it ‘directly’.”

According to his words, the System was just playing the role of a ‘medium’ that connected the Source and the user, not the Source itself.

It wasn’t directly touching it, but indirectly using it.

So it was a bit ambiguous to say that she had touched the Source.

“But it’s more than enough to be a good passage.”

There was almost nothing really connected to the Source.

Therefore, except for a very small number of people who reached the Source without a passage through overwhelming power, the rest had to have used a passage.

And the easiest and closest thing to use among them was the System.

“But how do you reach the Source?”

Even if it was a passage, she didn’t even know how to get in.

It meant she couldn’t even start.

“Among the objects that have a high affinity with us, what do you think is the closest existence to the System?”

At his words, she thought for a moment.

An existence close to the System.

The answer came out simpler than she thought.

“Divine Beast… or not.”

Beings that were once directly given control and rules by the System.

Therefore, they were probably the most direct to the System.

Hairel… was also a Constellation, so he could be close, but if he said this, it probably wasn’t the right answer.

“Correct. Using the Divine Beast will be the fastest, and since the Divine Beast are now beings whose souls are bound to you, the Divine Beast will play a very good role as a passage.”

After finishing the trial of the Divine Beast, when Ha-yeon became the owner of the Divine Beast, their souls were naturally bound to her.

There was no better way than this.

“Then how do you contact it now.”

But the Divine Beast was just a passage, not a method. There was a separate method.

“That’s when the Divine Beast summoned by the ‘System’ uses the power of the System.”

“The power of the System?”

“That’s right, summoning the Divine Beast is when the power of the System is imbued and covered. If it was just summoning, there would be no time limit.”

Interference of the System. Most beings would just be swayed by them, but if it was about the Divine Beast, they could twist it even a little bit.

Of course, that alone wouldn’t be enough. But that alone was enough.

“Leave the rest to me.”

Because we had the Constellation.

After talking about this and that, Ha-yeon left the place and thought about the conversation from earlier, and started to put what she had to do into action.

‘Before I start in earnest, I have to clean up the New King Church first.’

A possible threat.

In preparation for that, the New King Church had to be cleared away in advance.

How could she find it if she didn’t know where the church’s temple was? I told you.

We have the Constellation.

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ has provided ‘Finest Dimensional Stone’.]

Enter the base of those guys with the Finest Dimensional Stone.

And this time, unlike the past when she had been working alone, she had to act with several people.

The opponent was the opponent, so even if it was her, it was impossible alone.

So, the party members she had thought of were a total of six.

The first was her boyfriend and the president of the association, Jin Ha-jeong.

The second was her disciple and Lee Seol-ah, who had just risen to S-class.

The third and fourth were Ellen and Veronica, who had now become close friends.

The fifth was Jin Ha-jeong’s sister and her friend, Jin Na-yeon.

The last sixth was a bit ambiguous.

For now, it was Raven.

‘It’s just a candidate for now.’

If he joined, he would definitely be more reliable than anyone else.

Realistically, the possibility of him joining was high.

His son died because of the New King Church. Of course, I killed him, but he didn’t seem to resent me, but rather seemed grateful.

I was a benefactor to him, and there were more than enough reasons for him to listen to my request.

Anyway, with just that, he had enough reason to join this party and attack the New King Church.

‘Well, it’s much better than getting help from the association.’

Lee Seol-ah, who hasn’t been an S-class for long, was a bit ambiguous, but for now, it was a party made up of all S-classes.

On top of that, if Raven joined, there would be two strong people in the top 10, so it would be more powerful than any other party.

If it wasn’t this much, it would be a dog’s death if she went to the main building of the New King Church, so there was no need to get help from the association.

‘It’s not good to be too well known.’

A trustworthy person.

This was the most important thing.

Anyway, she had already called Ellen, Kaede, and Lee Seol-ah.

Veronica would probably call Ellen.

Raven had already given some hints, so it was good to say it was over.

So the last person left was Jin Ha-jeong.

But this guy… it was a bit much to persuade him, so she just left him at the end to chat.

Was it the last supper?

….What am I saying.

Ding-dong-

Anyway, Ha-yeon, who was comfortably waiting at home, opened the front door of her house at the sound of the ringing bell.

Then, Jin Ha-jeong, who was also wearing comfortable clothes, was seen.

“The weather is so hot today…”

“I turned on the air conditioner, so come in.”

She chuckled at him, who was an S-class Hunter but was unusually susceptible to the heat, and led him to the living room.

He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and thin sweatpants.

She was also wearing a short-sleeved shirt and dolphin pants. By the way, the top was a couple t-shirt.

Anyway, they roughly took their seats in the living room and chatted briefly before getting down to business.
