Jincheon.
‘True Heaven.’
It was an umbrella that covered them from struggling in the mud, and a shade that protected them from the hot sunlight.
That is why it was called Jincheon.
Haomen.
Woohoo!
The only being they had to worship and wait for was Jincheon.
“I am Jincheon.”
Words like a declaration of benefit.
Boom!
At that very moment, black lightning struck the top of Jincheonru once again.
Whoosh whoosh!
The sight of Jincheonru, struck by lightning and burning, resembled a sacred fire in another sense.
Swish.
A pouring rain.
When Lee Ro-un closed his eyes.
-That can’t be!
A sight I had never seen before began to appear like an afterimage.
‘beautiful.’
A woman who makes you think that if you made that word into a person, she would be like that.
The woman was on her knees, wailing.
-How dare you betray heaven!
She cried and cried.
-That can never happen!
Despite her pleas, the cold voice continued.
“It was not my will that I became your heaven.”
The voice came from Iroun’s mouth.
“You have made me heaven, you have made me a god.”
-Oh, Jincheon!
“So now it’s time to pay the price.”
Lee Ro-woon spoke to the woman who was crying without any change in her expression.
“Hajin.”
Her name.
“Take everything from the Shinmagyo.”
-Oh, Jincheon!
“It is not what I wanted or desired, so you who created that place should take it.”
-please!
Lee Ro-un said.
“and….”
Gather all the powers of silver.
“Care for me.”
With those last words, I felt the afterimages of the woman called Hajin and her surroundings disappear.
Swish.
Lee Ro-un opened his eyes.
He was neither summoned to a strange place nor fell asleep.
It was raining heavily on Haomen Street, where Yirun was standing.
“Oh, Your Majesty.”
At that moment, Ha Se-min, with trembling pupils, stood up and spoke, unable to hide his embarrassment.
Ha Se-min ran with an umbrella that he took out from somewhere unknown.
He was holding an umbrella over a little girl’s head.
“Oh, Jincheon.”
girl.
It is not possible to tell whether it is a man or a woman.
But Yirun could instinctively know that it was beneficial.
“Hajin.”
She is the woman in the afterimage, Hajin.
Again.
Droplets of water, whether rain or something else, ran down the corner of her eyes.
***
Lee Ro-un could instinctively know that it was beneficial.
The girl in front of me is the leader of the Haomun clan, and the woman who appeared in the afterimage, Hajin.
How she survived for so long.
I couldn’t figure out how she looked like that.
String.
Just looking at her gives me a strange, pang in my chest.
‘earthly.’
These memories, and these feelings.

There was no way I wouldn’t have noticed what this was.
‘Master.’
Memories of Shin Yeo-ul.
Before we knew it, the streets were filled with Haomen followers who had gathered there.
They knelt down, bowed their heads, and paid homage to Moonju and Hajin.
‘god.’
The appearance is like that of believers worshipping God.
“There was no way.”
Hajin said in a vain voice.
“I had to pass on Jincheon’s teachings to everyone, but as an apostate, I could not use Jincheon’s name.”
Hajin betrayed King Mu.
But thinking of King Mu, he wanted to leave behind for future generations everything he had taught.
However, as an apostate, I cannot use the names of Shinma and Jincheon.
“Their faith was forced to turn to me.”
That’s why she wanted to become a god herself.
On this very day.
“But everything belongs to Jincheon.”
It was to give everything she had built up to Jincheon who had reappeared.
Ha Se-min biting his lips.
The Haomen people have no expression.
She was a god to them.
Believers who must follow whatever God says.
“you….”
Lee Ro-woon said with eyes filled with deep regret.
“You’re repeating the same mistakes.”
“… … !”
She created a religion by thinking and judging alone.
‘It was like that in the past too.’
The birth of the Shinmagyo that ruled over the entire world was not something Shin Yeo-ul had wanted.
“I just….”
A pounding head.
‘It’s coming in.’
Memories of my teacher flood back all at once.
Why is this suddenly happening?
‘chaos….’
The Masters and themselves are connected.
The chaos that had been sealed within him was shared by all the masters, and an unbreakable bond was created that could not be broken even if it was cut off.
The memories of the Master flowing through that string.
‘Hajin.’
Emotions.
“Oh, Jincheon!”
Lee Ro-woon closed his eyes, leaving behind Ha-jin who was shouting at him.
I don’t necessarily block the memories that flow in.
But during all that time, I only thought about one thing.
‘me.’
Who is the country?
What is the master?
Swish.
When Yirun opened his eyes again.
Hajin was seen kneeling down politely.
“For many years, I couldn’t even sleep properly due to the guilt of my apostasy.”
Hajin’s voice.
“Please, end the long wait and pay the price for your apostasy.”
It seemed so obvious what she wanted.
“You want me to kill you?”
Her death.
It was Jincheon who condemned her.
* * *
In Lee Rok’s eyes, she was a monster.
The silver monster.
A monster different from the ghost song wine that was created over a long period of time.
She no longer looked like a girl.
“please.”
She had returned to the appearance of the beautiful woman she had seen in the afterimage.
“Please let me pay the price for my apostasy.”
apostasy.
She had betrayed the King.
A vivid memory in my mind proves it.
-Kill me.
Shin Yeo-ul’s command.
But she didn’t keep it.
The price is horribly, horribly.
The name of the new god was erased, and no one remained to remember the King of Mu.
“The price….”
Hajin had been living with that guilt until now.
Because he did not trust the King of Mu, he led the world to destruction.
I have been raising Haomen with all my might to wash away that sin.
She is crying with the rain.
The world she had been immersed in for a long time represented her emotions.
“I will pay.”
Her voice was heard with an afterimage.
-Please kill me.
Her true heart, her desire to find peace in this endless life.
“You… know.”
Lee Ro-woon spoke to her in a heavy voice.
“I’m not the one you’ve been waiting for.”
Iroun clearly said that he was Jincheon.
God.
One who is worthy of being the King of Silver.
But what she’s been waiting for isn’t someone qualified.
‘Shin Yeo-ul.’
He has been waiting for that person.
Swish.
The falling rain, her emotions being swept away by the rain.
‘I guess you’re not coming back.’
She thought that Jincheon and Shinyeoul, whom she had truly been waiting for, would not appear since she appeared as her successor.
So I think there is no point in waiting any longer.
However, he still wants to leave the ending to Jincheon’s successor, Lee Ro-woon.
“… … .”
Hajin closed his eyes and said nothing.
That was telling me that what Yirun said was correct.
“It’s not me.”
The beneficial one said.
“The one you’ve been waiting for.”
That’s not him.
“That doesn’t matter. It is certain that you have succeeded Jincheon.”
“That’s true. But.”
Lee Ro-woon said, extending his hand towards her as she knelt down.
“The person you’ve been waiting for has returned.”
“… … !”
By Lee Ro-un’s standards, Ha-jin was a person who could be described in one word.
‘Crazy bitch.’
A person who is trapped in his own sin and cannot escape.
That is why he transformed Haomen into a form of religion and created a fanatic belief.
but.
“I don’t hate it.”
Lee Ro-woon didn’t hate the person named Ha-jin.
Her actions were certainly condemnable, and she could have been stoned to death for being the worst woman in the world.
But what does that mean?
“You did not betray your master.”
The stigma of apostasy.
But that is also because I do it out of respect for my teacher.
He disobeyed his master’s order to kill himself and became an apostate in order to serve his master.
Her long wait.
This too was accomplished with a heart for the Master.
He could never blame her for enduring this hellish life as atonement to her master.
“If you must be punished.”
The beneficial one said.
“It’s not me who should be punishing.”
It will be his own master.
“I, really… that person… .”
“The Master has returned. You have seen the evidence.”
The reason why Hui was able to control Haomen.
The reason Ha-jin had to hand over the rights to Hao-mun, which belonged to King Wu, and would not hand them over to anyone else.
“God… the devil.”
She saw the Master’s victory.
Evidence that, although not certain, leaves us with no choice but to have hope.
In front of her, even more certain evidence appeared: herself.
“The Master is in someone’s hands. No, it could be the Master’s will.”
I don’t know.
“But I intend to get my master back.”
Even if that is what the Master wants.
-If we meet again, we will have to fight to kill each other.
Thinking of the King of Mu’s voice, Yi-ro-un reached out his hand even further towards Ha-jin.
“Would you like to join us?”
The rain gradually subsides.
Her emotions were melted into the raindrops.
It made me laugh and write useful things.
‘love.’
A love that has lasted for thousands of years, or perhaps even longer.
Maybe that’s true madness.
Kwak.
Hajin grabbed Lee Ro-woon’s hand.
Hajin stands up.
Their eyes were focused on one place.
The man with the empty eyes, towards Ha Se-min.
* * *
An ordinary child from Haomen.
A child whose destiny was unimaginable.
That kind of kid.
‘From today onwards, your name is Ha Se-min.’
The day I was chosen and given a name.
Light seeped into his empty eyes.
‘You will have to live in darkness from now on. Are you okay with that?’
It’s okay.
You are my light, and darkness is my salvation.
‘I am the Black King.’
Ha Se-min sacrificed everything for Hao-mun and Heuk-shi.
My god.
‘Hajin.’
For the sake of the Lord.
I didn’t even get greedy.
I just took pride in the fact that I was working for Heukshi, for Haomen.
Despite the numerous favors and gifts pouring in from all sides, only those intended for Haomen were accepted after careful calculation.
I never did anything for personal glory.
‘It’s a gift.’
He only wore the suit she gave him, and he did not touch the numerous possessions he had at his disposal.
That was Ha Se-min.
But now, that world is being taken away before my eyes.
“… … .”
It’s vain.
‘I am….’
I thought I wasn’t being greedy.
I just thought I was content with everything I was given.
“I wanted that.”
But it was clear that behind the scenes, there was also a growing desire to visit Haomun.
Only now, when that man had lost everything to Lee Ro-woon, could I admit my feelings.
The light faded away, and the eyes became empty.
Now nothing matters.
The darkness that he thought was light to him is now becoming darkness.
“I won’t give it to you.”
A hand reaching out towards him.
“Haomen is mine.”
“Are you… making fun of me?”
“no.”
Beneficial, he said, extending his hand.
“You are the one who rules Haomen.”
Light once again enters the pupils that had been empty.
‘Jinchon.’
The sky that becomes an umbrella and a shade.
“Are you going to catch him?”
He said.
‘Shall I tell you the way to survive?’
