Original subtitles

Coming here to die? What idiots.

I can't get enough of this!

Come to me all at once!

I don't even know which is the magic beast...

Song is as strong as a monster too.

Well, that's settled for now.

Sung, you've really gotten stronger.

Where did you get that great dagger?

Come to think about it, you didn't get hurt today yet, Jinwoo.

Ah... Is that so?

I hope you won't need it this time.

No, I'm counting on you.

Just as I thought.

He has changed a lot.

Not just his appearance, but even his aura.

I can feel his ease and confidence.

Did you learn martial arts?

Let's keep going.

SOLO LEVELING

It's a fork in the road.

This one is even easier than expected.

Should we split up into three groups?

Although it will increase the risk,

we could end the mission sooner.

Let's do that.

I'll take the right path with those convicts.

If you find the Boss room,

please inform me immediately.

It must be because my perception has improved.

From here, I can tell...

The Boss is ahead on this path.

I can't earn many points from fighting goblins.

Mr. Song.

Let's take the left path.

Alright.

Then we'll take the middle one.

Yes.

I can handle goblins of this level.

I hope this mission will end well.

It should.

They brought the weakest Hunter, so the level of this dungeon must be low.

We thought so last time, didn't we?

I've decided.

Once this mission is over, I will go apologize to Sung.

Eh?

You couldn't forget it either, right?

We ran away back then.

A man who prides himself as a Hunter ran away.

I did it for my family,

but it doesn't change the fact that I abandoned my companion.

If I want to continue claiming to be a Hunter,

I must learn to admit my mistakes.

Will he forgive us?

He will never forgive us.

But I still have to apologize.

Alright, let's go.

Too weak!

Goblins are no match at all!

Are you finished them all?

It's a piece of cake.

I'm not even satisfied.

What if they were humans?

What?

Can you kill humans in the same way?

Humans aren't that different from these magic beasts.

Yeah, they're all the same.

What do you want from me?

Three men violated my daughter.

And then my daughter hanged herself.

My wife ended up in a mental hospital due to the trauma!

But those three guys...

...will be released in a few years as if nothing had happened!

And they...

They still have their Hunter licenses!

I've heard that Hunters can get sentence reductions by participating in raid missions.

It's not fair at all!

My daughter will never return to me!

What is that?

Here's three billion!

Please... Please...

Kill them for me!

No outsider would know what happened in the dungeon, right?

I beg you...

Please help me!

After leaving here, I'll report to the Surveillance Department.

That the three of you...

...encountered a hundred goblins here.

This path is really winding.

Are we really going forward?

Did we choose the wrong path?

Phew.

Help... me...

Don't think you're going to die easy.

I'll torture you as much as possible before ending your lives.

That's what I was told to do.

W-What are you doing?!

Ah.

The paths are connected?

In other words,

the left path leads to the Boss room.

That saves me time finding it.

H-Help m—

Although this went differently than planned...

That Kang Taeshik visited me at the hospital with his superior.

I hope he doesn't remember me.

Mr. Song!

Okay!

What happened here?

Jungho!

Mr. Kang...

Mr. Kim?

Joohee... heal them.

Go heal them!

Y-Yes!

Mr. Kim, pull yourself together!

These wounds were not caused by magic beasts.

They are caused by sharp blades.

Moreover, the enemy avoided lethal injuries to create more wounds.

It's no use...

You can't save me...

What are you talking about?

You have to live.

You have a family, right?

You have...

You have to live until the end, no matter what!

So I can hold a grudge against you!

I'm sorry...

I am truly sorry...

I didn't want to apologize like this...

I want to bow my head properly and apologize to you...

Sung...

I am really sorry...

Really sorry...

Kim.

Wow.

You're quite agile.

I wanted to take care of the Healer first.

But I didn't expect you to block my move.

Mr. Kang?

Did you do this?!

What if I did?

Aren't you from the Hunter's Association?

How could you do this?

I've thought of a good story.

I was going to claim that you were killed by goblins.

But I want to make a change.

These criminals attempted to escape.

They'll killed you first,

and ambushed me from behind when I fought the Boss.

However, with their strength, they couldn't harm me.

In the end, only I survived.

Perfect, isn't it?

You piece of shit...

You can't defeat him.

Let me do it.

Kim, lend me your sword.

It's been a long time since I raised a sword against someone.

He is a B-Rank, higher than me.

But...

Joohee, can you cast a physical enhancement spell on me?

Y-Yes.

Assassins usually have low defense, and that's their weakness.

I must target that.

Even if an old Mage had his strength enhanced,

it would only backfire.

Right now, I am a swordsman.

You're just a Mage.

What's the point of picking up a sword?

There might be a point.

You have good skills.

Although enhanced,

your movements are very skilled in themselves.

Although just for a moment, Mr. Song caught up to his speed.

If he could be a bit faster...

Your attack is fast and accurate.

You have the ability to attack with a sword instead of magic.

But that's all there is to it.

That Healer is annoying.

I should get rid of you first.

Turning your back on a swordsman?!

Seems like you're no ordinary old man.

After all, I am the master of an S-Rank Hunter.

In terms of swordsmanship, I won't lose to you.

That being said, the power you've been granted has a limit.

A Mage...

...can never keep up with an Assassin!

Mr. Song!

No way...

The Healer has exhausted her power.

It's over.

Did it work?

You posed as a swordsman to lower my guard against the magic.

You unleashed a magical attack at the moment I made my final strike.

This tactic isn't bad.

You cunning old fox.

Is it over?

Die.

You again?

Who are you?

I'm Sung Jinwoo,

an E-Rank Hunter.

E-Rank?

How is that possible?

Sung...

What was that just now?

If you are a power-type E-Rank Hunter,

that strength would make sense.

But you reacted fast enough to block my attacks twice.

Are you an Assassin?

Never mind. It doesn't matter.

You've been hiding your true power, right?

You seem to know each other.

Then you can't be a False Ranker.

After all, you wouldn't leave any witnesses alive.

In that case,

there's only one answer.

You're a second awakener.

Sung is...

...a second awakener?!

If that's the case,

did it happen after the Double Dungeon incident?

Double Dungeon?

Is he...

...that lousy E-Rank Hunter?

His appearance and impression are completely different.

And his measured value was only 10.

Did the second awakening happen after that?

If so, how did he survive the Double Dungeon?

Well, regardless,

it seems you have little experience as a Hunter.

Let me teach you a thing or two.

Why do you do this?

You mean these prisoners?

I was entrusted by the family of the victim.

They killed someone without any remorse.

This is all about social justice.

No, I mean Mr. Kim and Mr. Kang.

Why did you kill them?

Was it to silence them?

Then you could have made it quick.

Yet you avoided inflicting fatal wounds as if to torture them.

It is for the victim?

Cut that nonsense.

That is not your true nature.

Sure.

These things are trivial for me.

But you seem to have misunderstood.

I am a B-Rank Hunter that many large guilds fight for.

Why do you think I joined Hunter's Association which pays a meager salary?

Because...

...I enjoy killing people more than killing magic beasts.

Even with a second awakening, an E-Rank Hunter can't be very strong!

You're too slow.

Impressive.

How can he have such skills?!

He's no longer the Sung I knew!

Our speeds are comparable!

Even if we have the same skills and the same strength,

your experience against high-level opponents is far too little compared to mine.

These differences will lead to your defeat!

You are a tough one.

Excuse me.

What?

Could you please tone down your killing intent?

Look.

NUMBER OF ENEMIES DEFEATED: 0/1 The system has responded to you.

Now I have to thank this system.

It has given me another reason why I must kill you.

System?

What's up with him?

I'm the one with the upper hand.

ACTIVE SKILL: DASH

He got even faster!

Poison?!

Is this a special effect of your dagger?

Then let me show you something interesting too.

He disappeared?

I had completely concealed my presence.

Your senses are sharp.

Skill, Stealth.

It hides one's shape, sound, and scent, among others.

Even among Assassins, only a very few can acquire this skill.

Of course, those who know that I can use this skill...

...are nonexistent!

That's because...

There hasn't been one

who has seen me use this skill and lived to tell about it.

I have sealed your speed.

- Jinwoo! - Stay put!

After I kill him, it's your turn.

If this goes on, Sung will...

With your foot injured, can you still dodge my attacks?

Hey.

Have you said enough?

Full Recovery.

He recovered instantly?!

I've never heard Fighter capable of using healing magic...

How many times can he use it?

I cannot predict it at all.

He's a dangerous one!

I've lost another emotion.

With a scum like you,

is it a waste of time to get angry?

I see.

You've killed a human before, right?

So you're like me after all.

I see.

He probably had to make many difficult choices in a short time.

It isn't just his appearance that changed.

Awakening.

This power beyond common sense has changed the rules of the world.

This is a lawless land belonging only to Hunters.

There is no law here,

only the strong will win.

This guy...

Is he gauging my position through my killing intent?

But even so, he still can't pinpoint my exact location!

ACTIVE SKILL: MURDEROUS INTENT

W-What's this?

Wait...

No way...

How... is it possible?

You asked me why I kill people, right?

It's pointless to apply ordinary people's views

to Hunters who frequently consort with death.

You're the same.

We've both become killing machines.

So I, the loser, will die.

It's the logical rule.

But who are you?

You're an Assassin capable of using healing magic and debuff magic.

I've never heard of that.

Who knows.

I would like to know too.

Since you've killed me,

you can no longer hide your identity.

What if I were the kind of Hunter who grows constantly in battle?

Your shadow...

...is already connected to the darkness.

Your power will become as unfathomable as it.

However, you must be careful.

When you stare into the abyss,

the abyss will stare back at you.

URGENT QUEST: DEFEAT THE ENEMIES COMPLETED

YOU GOT REWARDS: ABILITY POINTS+5

YOU HAVE DISCOVERED RUNE STONE: STEALTH

Indeed.

My strength has grown rapidly.

But I feel...

that as my strength grows,

a part of me is gradually falling apart.

Jinwoo.

Thank you very much.

You saved us.

Without you, we would have died.

It's nothing.

Please go ahead and leave.

I need to close up the dungeon.

What?

You're going alone?

No, we'll do as you say.

It's a pity that we can't bury Kim and Kang.

I'll wait for you outside.

Chief Woo.

I've heard the report.

Where are the survivors?

Over there.

Speaking of which,

I didn't expect Kang Taeshik to be involved in murders.

Although I did suspect him,

as his superior, I was too careless.

It's these three.

That person...

He was that E-Rank Hunter back then.

He looks like a different person.

Long time no see.

Um, you're from the Surveillance Department.

Woo Jinchul.

This time my subordinate has caused huge trouble.

But first,

let me get straight to the point.

Which of you

killed Kang Taeshik?

It seems I can no longer hide.

It's a pity.

My collaboration with Jinho might have to come to an end.

It was me.

I killed Mr. Kang.

Excuse me, I remember your rank is...

I'm a C-Rank Hunter.

How could a C-Rank Hunter manage to kill a B-Rank Hunter?

Because we have her.

I see.

So you managed to defeat him with the Healer's assistance.

Kang Taeshik was among the top of the B-Rank Hunters.

I don't think a C-Rank Mage could kill him, no matter how hard he tried.

I understand.

We need to complete the report.

Please come with me.

Now is not the time to be smug about having killed Kang Taeshik.

I couldn't see it at that time.

This person is an A-Rank Hunter.

He's not someone I can handle right now.

Was I meddling too much?

You must have your reasons for hiding your strength.

Well.

Consider it my way of repaying you for saving my life.

Three hours later,

the man who commissioned Kang Taeshik to kill the prisoners turned himself in.

The whole case was concluded as legitimate self-defense.

That was exhausting.

Jinwoo.

Do you...

remember this?
