Product Information

To combat these vile beasts, ordinary people received superhuman powers and became known as " Hunters. Sung Jinwoo receives the "job" shadow monarch, which allows him to make an army of souls of the monster's he's killed. The way the pages are turned was reversed in the previous volume after it was reversed in he issue before that. He later befriends Jinwoo after the latter defeats him in a fight and give him Kamish's Wrath, the strongest magical weapon in the world, as a gift. Sort of feels like we are departing from the original plot because the author has run out of content regarding the first plot line arc.

He later becomes on good terms with Jinwoo when they meet each other for the first time during the annual guild conference.

It was good, just kind of boring, which is surprising considering the past books and what happened in this one. I liked all different plot lines and switching between them, I was excited to see what’s going on in all sides that I was not frustrated when the POV switched. The world has ignored Japan and after the gross management of their team in Jeju Island, everyone does not want to partner with the Japanese. Although she survives the double dungeon alongside Jinwoo, she is left shell-shocked by the experience and ultimately retires after failing to overcome the mental trauma she suffered from the incident.

V3 brings in more world building as well as gives Sung Jinwoo a few blast from the past moments as his former teammates from the dungeon incident in V1 team up to take on a dungeon he's also volunteered to enter. Jinwoo continues his conquest of the Demon's Castle, finding strange intelligent monsters with missing memories.

Antares Antares ( Korean: 안타레스; RR: Anteoreseu) was the King of Dragons and the Monarch of Destruction.

When Jinwoo is later killed by the Monarchs, Ashborn appears in the flesh to save him and gives Jinwoo a detailed explanation of his past. Characters [ edit ] Sung Jin-woo Voiced by: Taito Ban [7] Sung Jin-woo ( Korean: 성진우; RR: Seong Jin-u) is the main protagonist of the series. This volume in Kindle is read the right-to-left way by page turn as opposed to the left to right way, then each page is read left-to-right. This one is all set-up and asides as the hero spends half the book ripping through a practice run in a demon tower and then a boatload of new characters join pretty much every character who has ever been in the series in preparation for an assault on the island of monstrous ants that has been shown here and there throughout the previous volumes. In this volume, he seems to have it back, and even addresses his own level of focus to attain his goal.

Having witnessed the staggering power of the Shadow Monarch, Jinwoo can’t wait to level up and reach those heights, and what better way to do so than to mobilize his army of soldiers against an S-rank dungeon’s worth of giants? Still attempting to hide his true rank, the fact that Sung Jinwoo has been managing to survive after so many attempts at his life as well as saving others, has made him the target and suspicion of many, including the heads of several guilds. After transferring the rest of his powers to Jinwoo and bringing him back to life, Ashborn goes into eternal sleep and allows Jinwoo to take his place as the Shadow Monarch. Jinwoo, main character, protects and defends a lot of people that aren't important or relevant to the story. Saving a country abandoned by the rest of the world has its benefits—international renown, the expansion of his guild, an invitation to the most prestigious hunter conference in the world—but perhaps the most unexpected bonus is a run-in with another Monarch who brings not-so-welcome tidings.

A K-Drama adaptation is in development and spinoff webtoon titled Solo Leveling: Ragnarok is set to premiere in 2024.I agree with another review pointing out that the series overall moves pretty fast, but this volume was like lightning fast. It was later published in 2015 and the novel was serialized with the 270 chapters in October 10, 2018. Twenty-year-old Sung Jinwoo is one such Hunter, but he is known as the "World's Weakest," owing to his pathetic power compared to even a measly E-Rank. A webtoon adaptation launched in KakaoPage on March 4, 2018, and concluded its first season on March 19, 2020. My excitement never goes down and even the political parts in the book stay interesting while being connected to the story.
