Wresting away the Falna from the System's control may sound easy and it was indeed, at least for Kisuke. However, the consequences of doing that weren't ideal in that it'd predominate the benefits that he would get from doing it.
Not to mention becoming an 'enemy' of the system, the source of his Falna, Hestia, might receive a backlash along with those others to whom she'd granted her Falna to begin with.
Of course, it was not like Kisuke hadn't thought of a way to circumvent this, but he still hadn't figured out anything that would net him the most benefits he could have, 'I don't have much of a choice. The most I can do now is to break the Falna's structure and make it look like it didn't come from Hestia.'
By doing this, not only will he be losing his connection to Hestia, but the blessing's effect on his body would almost lose its effects and his soul would incur some damages. He couldn't care less regarding the last two and he was already satisfied that Hestia wouldn't be put in danger, 'It's a shame that I can't get the most out of it, but it's better than nothing.'
While preparing to restructure his Falna, a sudden connection was established to it and it wasn't from Hestia, '!?'
Kisuke decided to halt his actions and tried to trace the connection. But before he could do that, a deep voice of a woman suddenly rang in his head, 'What are you?'
Being startled, Kisuke used everything he had to gather more information instead of replying.
But the voice didn't care about what he was doing and continued, 'I smell Chaos' scent on you. Are you his pawn?'
After a few seconds of extensive information collection, Kisuke finally got a clue as to where the connection was coming from, 'The Dungeon!?'
Unperturbed, the voice added, 'I see that you are an outsider... and also know almost nothing.'
'Who are you?', asked Kisuke while trying to gather more concrete information.
But instead of answering, the voice asked, 'What is this power? And what were you about to do with your connection to Heaven? As Chaos' pawn, this seems to be counterintuitive.'
Kisuke was in a predicament. He didn't know who was talking to him and he didn't have any logical step to follow after this. He also had a feeling that he couldn't lie to this voice and contemplated whether or not he should just go all-in with his 'guts' since he already started it.
'Ah screw it! I'm already at this stage! First of all, I'm not Chaos's pawn nor I will be in the future. Second, I'm taking this 'connection' for my own.', Kisuke decided to answer honestly as his gut dictated him.
'...How surprising.', replied the voice in its usual uninterested tone, 'But I doubt that you'll ever get away from his schemes... regardless of your wishes.'
Kisuke, however, only had one response to that. With a smirk that naturally came to his face, Kisuke answered brimming with motivation and confidence, 'Try me.'
The voice didn't reply but Kisuke could still feel the owner's presence through his Falna, so he waited.
A minute later, the voice finally said something, 'You misunderstand the thing that you call Falna.'
Kisuke was confused about the sudden change in the topic but continued to listen.
'This connection to Heaven isn't a blessing. Although it gives you power, it's only minuscule compared to how grand Heaven is. It is because you contributed to it, that's why it refines your soul and grants power to that refined soul. The more refinement, the more power it can give. But as I said, only if you contribute.'
'Once you've reached a certain amount of contributions and went through enough refinements, it would then grant you a permanent connection to Heaven.'
Kisuke took a deep breath and replied to it, 'In other words... You'll become a slave of Heaven, a Deity.'
The voice didn't say anything regarding that, but it was a silent affirmation.
All of a sudden, however, Kisuke's Falna started changing on its own. More specifically, a large amount of information was being written in it, 'What's this?'
'A set of instructions on how the system of Heaven refines souls. Also, Heaven won't be able to take back this Falna from you anymore.'
'Why?'
'First, it seemed that you needed this, and second, because I made it so.'
'How?'
'Simple, I created Heaven. Maybe we'll meet again.', instantaneously, the presence inside his Falna disappeared completely.
Kisuke couldn't help but smile wryly, 'So we're stuck between these two powerful beings that clearly don't get along... Well, I'd rather deal with this new one with a 'watch and see' attitude compared to that scheming gentleman out in the void.'
Kisuke immediately noticed that his Falna's connection to Hestia became rather 'empty', but it was not noticeable if not scrutinized. The upstream of information also stopped, confirming the words of that unknown being to him of being 'disconnected', but not noticed by the system.
What he had now was a Falna, but a standalone one with bonus instructions up to Level 10. As long he fed it with energy, he could automatically Level up to 10 as long as his soul could take it. Of course, he wouldn't do that because he wanted to understand the instructions that made that possible first, and maybe, modify them a bit based on his knowledge. Soul tech of two different worlds, Kisuke was looking forward to the result of this fusion.
It was also then that Kisuke tried to guess what the Hougyoku was trying to do, 'Did it intend to 'contribute' to the system in exchange for power?.. Or did it intend to contact the system's owner?'
However, he wasn't able to reach a clear answer.
Setting that aside, for now, Hougyoku's actions were far from done. As it saturated the Falna with energy, making it possible to unlock the soul refinement instructions until Level 10, the wish item then focused on his physical body.
Unlike the other two times where the Hougyoku just saturated both his Soul and Falna with Reiryoku (Spiritual Power), the Hougyoku instead controlled Kisuke's Reiatsu-Ki and the more destructive variant of Magic Power, Demonic Power.
Kisuke observed intently as the Hougyoku combined these energies through some unknown method. '...How fascinating...', thought Kisuke as he tried to memorize every single detail for later studies.
