100. Biggest Secret Reveal

When Indra says he wants to talk about Jin Woo, everyone turns to look at Jin Woo.

"What about him? If it's about him being a National Level Hunter, we don't have any objection after seeing his power."

"It's not about that. He has something to show you. It will be surprising, so try to keep your wits."

Suddenly, the whole room becomes very dark as shadow completely engulfs it. Everyone flinches because they sense a very powerful magic power spreading all over the room. It's even more powerful than the Giant Boss they faced yesterday.

Before they can grasp what happens, numerous shadow soldiers come out of the floor. The Hunters who don't know what's going on instantly get on their guards.

"Calm down! They aren't enemies." Indra quickly says it so they won't fight the shadow soldiers.

Jin Woo also quickly explains it. "These guys are my summoned creatures, shadow soldiers."

The room becomes bright again but the shadow soldiers remain there.

"W-what? Summoned creatures? You aren't a close combat type?" Reed asks while trembling because he can sense the shadow soldiers' power better than most of them as a Mage.

"I am a close combat type, but I'm also a magic type, if you classify me as a Hunter. However, I am more than that. I'll show you something more shocking. But before I show it to you, I'll tell you that I am a human, I am truly Sung Il Hwan's son, and not a monster or anything else."

Jin Woo says that before creating a few small Gates around him, shocking those who don't know his real identity. They tremble and have a lot of things they want to ask, but their mouths can't say anything because they are scared.

"I'm sure you have many questions, so I'll give you the full answer."

Jin Woo's eyes glow bright blue and everyone's eyes also glow in response. Explaining with words will be too long and difficult, so Jin Woo uses his magic to show them everything that happens to Earth in the original timeline.

Though he actually just unlocks their memories of the original timeline just like when he did it to Woo Jin Chul after he restarts the time for the 1st time after defeating the Monarchs.

But because some of them died before the final war against the Monarchs, Jin Woo also shows them the events that happened until the final war.

After that, he also shows them the destruction of Earth that happens long after he restarted the time, the destruction that happened because Earth didn't have any awakeners to fight the invaders that came after the Monarchs.

Only Indra, Il Hwan, Dewi, and Ragnar aren't shown those memories because they've seen them before. Jin Woo has shown everything to his father and Dewi to gain their cooperation.

As for Ragnar, he is chosen as Odin's vessel and Odin has shown them everything too in order to gain his cooperation as well.

It was actually very easy for Odin to gain Ragnar's cooperation because Ragnar is a Norse person and Odin is a Norse God his people worship.

The National Level Hunters are seeing events that happened for hundreds of years. They feel like they live for that long when they see those events. But it actually only takes an hour in reality.

After an hour, they return to reality. Their bodies are drenched by cold sweats and they gasp for air after seeing those unbelievable events.

"W-was everything real?" Thomas asks with a trembled voice.

"Everything was real Thomas." A black middle-aged lady comes out of a Gate that Jin Woo makes to answer Thomas.

"Mrs. Selner!" Reed is surprised seeing her suddenly appear here.

"Thomas, I told you that I've seen unbelievable dreams so many times in the past, right? Because of my ability, I always believe those dreams are premonitions of things that will happen in the future."

"Yeah, but then you said you stopped having those dreams a few years ago."

"That's because I met Mr. Sung Jin Woo. He showed me the same thing he showed you and everything finally made sense. That's why to help him, I have been upgrading a lot of Hunters' power using my awakened ability even though the USA Government wanted to use my ability only on people they chose. But Earth needs a lot of strong people to defend it, that's why I pushed myself to the limit to increase the power of many people we deem as worthy. Though my ability to increase Awakeners' power still pales in comparison to someone, I still did my best to help."

They were still quite skeptical about everything that Jin Woo showed them. But now they are fully convinced after hearing what Norma Selner said.

"Huh? Wait! There's someone else who can upgrade awakeners' power?"

Norma doesn't say anything and only looks at Indra who stands on the back. Everyone turns around and looks at him with widened eyes. Indra doesn't say anything. Instead, it's Jin Woo who explains it.

"Indra is someone that Odin and I chose to assist us in our mission to save Earth. We gave him the ability to upgrade awakeners' power and even awaken normal people. He is also someone who can grow stronger."

They are already surprised when they hear Indra can awaken normal people. But when Jin Woo says he can also grow stronger, their minds are blown.

"Sure I can get stronger. But I still can't reach Jin Woo's real power. He is basically a God when he recovers his true power, after all."

"But for a normal Hunter, he already surpasses anyone in this world. You can even say he is the strongest human now if you exclude me as a human anymore."

The surprise just keeps coming to the National Level Hunters who still can't really grasp the situation.

"Enough about that, you can always see his true power at a later date. For now, I want to talk about something very serious with you guys. I'm sure you have understood the situation now and it's actually much more serious than what you've seen just now."

Jin Woo wants to talk about the very serious thing now. So Indra takes out some chairs and drinks from his inventory for everyone.

They sit and chug their drinks quickly to soothe their tense nerves before listening to Jin Woo. All of them know it will be a much more nerve-wrecking talk, so they need to calm down first.

After everyone seems to calm down a bit, Jin Woo starts to talk. He explains the current situation with the Monarchs who are gathering allies to attack Earth.

"They are increasing their power now, so we can assume that it will take longer for them to attack Earth. However, it also means the war will be much more dangerous than what you've seen from the previous timeline."

The allies that the Monarchs gather will be at least as strong as them. Furthermore, even Jin Woo and Odin don't know how many allies the Monarchs will gather, so they don't know how dangerous the war will be.

"Wait! This Odin you are talking about, is he the same Odin from Norse mythology?" Dina who has been curious about Odin since Jin Woo mentioned him before finally asks.

"Yes, he is that Odin and he chose Ragnar as his vessel, just like how the Rulers are choosing you as their vessel. Among us, only me, Indra, Dewi, and my father aren't vessels of any Great Beings. I am basically at the same rank as those Great Beings, so the ones without any direct connection to the Great Beings are those 3."

Jin Woo doesn't mention it, but his father is planned to be the vessel of the current strongest Ruler who previously chose Go Gun Hee as its vessel.

But because Go Gun Hee is too old, his body couldn't withstand the Ruler's power and it became a big problem in the previous timeline.

In this time, Go Gun Hee also has awakened as an S-Rank. But he is just a normal S-Rank, not a Ruler's vessel.

Jin Woo was pulling a string to make the old man awaken because that geezer is the best person to lead South Korea's Hunter Association which was proved in the past.

With his father's support as a National Level Hunter, Go Gun Hee's leadership in South Korea's Hunter Association becomes very solid and powerful, which really helps their Hunters greatly.

As for Dewi, Jin Woo and Odin actually have a plan that they haven't even told Indra yet. But this plan will also help Dewi catch up to the Rulers' vessels when they can use their backers' power.

"Now that you know the truth, I want to hear your opinion before we continue. Do you want to help us or do you want to stay behind? Just so you know, I won't harm you even if you choose to stay back. But if you do that, the Rulers that support you will leave and find other people to be their vessels because they need to join the war with their vessels." Jin Woo gives them options.

"You really ask that now? As if we can back down after knowing what will happen to our world. How can we back down and not join this fight?" Thomas seems offended.

"Yeah. It's not like we can be safe just by not joining the fight. If I understand it correctly, we are chosen as vessels because we are the most compatible to hold those Rulers' power. That means no one can be stronger than us while using those Rulers' power, right? If we don't join, Earth's fighting power will reduce and the chance of defeat is higher. If we get defeated in the war, then everyone on Earth including us will die, so backing off is not even an option."

Everyone agrees with Reed. Not being the Rulers' power means they will be weaker and it will be even easier for them to die, after all. So it's obvious which option they'll choose.

"Great. Then now, let's talk about what we'll do from now on." Jin Woo smiles and they start talking about the plan.
