Jinwoo…

What are these things?

Right.

I haven't shown them to you yet.

This is one of my skills.

You can summon these things with your skills?

It's a bit complicated.

Jinwoo.

At least let me collect the magic gems.

Thank… thank you…

Oh no!

Jesus!

Hey.

Don't shout so loudly.

Don't worry.

They just passed out.

Right, you don't understand what I'm saying anyway.

I barely speak English.

I am a human being.

I want to go home.

(Solo Leveling Season 2 -Arise from the Shadow-)

Cheers.

Welcome, please come in.

Now we've completed nineteen quests.

Yes.

I wouldn't have done it without you.

What are your plans next?

First, I'm going to take the written test at the association

to get the guild master's license.

Then I'll use it as a bargaining chip to negotiate with my father.

I see.

How about you, Jinwoo?

You might not be able to contact me for a while.

I need to go somewhere…

What's wrong?

Jinwoo.

If you find me annoying, you can just say it.

And I won't bother you anymore.

Are you drunk?

I have a brother ten years older than me

who doesn't like me.

We have never spent time together as brothers.

Compared to him,

not only did you save my life,

you also agreed to my request.

I really wish you were my brother.

In that case,

you are my younger brother from now.

Jinwoo?

Meat.

Have some more meat.

I will grill it for you.

Hey, not too much.

Would you like some lemon?

No.

You really are drunk, aren't you?

I'm completely sober now.

Geez.

What do I do with you?

Have you identified him?

He claimed to be a foreign hunter

who was trapped in a gate ten years ago

and couldn't get out.

Then he found himself in the gate leading to the United States.

That's unprecedented.

Anything else?

It seems he doesn't speak English.

We have yet to conduct an interrogation with a translator.

It can't be ruled out that he might be a humanoid beast.

What can we do about him?

We have requested assistance from an S-Rank hunter in Washington who is his compatriot.

Mr. Hwang?

We can proceed with the investigation once he returns to the country.

Tsk.

That's good then.

By the way, what's his name?

It's a bit hard to pronounce.

He says his name is Sung Il-hwan.

I'm going out for a week.

Going on a trip right after work?

You are so busy.

I have lots of things to do.

Who are you going with?

I said I would go with a friend.

Since when did you get a girlfriend?

While fighting Cerberus,

my level was around 20.

And now my level has tripled.

I should be able to defeat it more easily.

Does it mean I should keep going?

Oh.

It's a quest.

The Demon's Castle is teeming with demons.

Please collect demon souls.

The requirement is to collect

ten thousand demon souls?

That's a lot.

But,

this time, I came for another purpose.

ELIXIR OF LIFE, CRAFT

Be it ten thousand or a hundred thousand,

I'll get them all.

YOO JINHO

You're asking me to hand over the guild to you?

Yes.

Hmm.

You know Jinsung's plan, yet you still make this request?

My brother's plan to have an outsider become the guild master

is too risky for our company…

That hunter is Sung Jinwoo, right?

The double dungeon incident.

The annihilation of Hwang Dongsuk's team.

And the Supervision Department's killing of prisoners.

He's involved in all three incidents and remained unscathed.

He also participated in all the raid missions you organized.

In the red gate incident of the White Tiger Guild a few days ago,

it's said that it was again him who brought out the survivors.

You obtained the guild master license with his help, didn't you?

Do you still want me to hand over the guild to you?

Even so…

Even so,

I still ask you to hand over Yoojin Guild to me.

As for my brother, I will…

I understand.

I can let you give it a try.

Eh?

But there's a condition.

After that red gate incident,

I've heard that the White Tiger Guild has been trying to secretly recruit Hunter Sung.

You have to let him join our guild before that happens.

Can you do it?

Yes.

I have high hopes for you.

THE MANA IS CONTAMINATED SHADOW EXTRACTION IS NOT AVAILABLE

For some reason, I can't extract from the demons.

There are so many demons here. What a pity.

Oh.

YOU ACQUIRED ITEM: ENTRY PERMIT

A permit to the upper floors.

THE PERMIT GRANTS ACCESS TO THE 2ND FLOOR OF THE DEMON'S CASTLE. IT CAN ONLY BE USED ON THE MAGIC TELEPORTATION CIRCLE ON THE 1ST FLOOR.

I see.

It can only be used there.

This dungeon is huge.

It seems to be an entire city stuffed into a building.

Walking on foot can be tiring.

Are you the leader of that group of Ice Bear?

You're so big, aren't you?

Alright.

I'll go over there to take a look.

Hmm?

Ah.

What a headache.

Woah.

Eek!

You're pretty strong.

From today on, you will be called Tank.

Wow.

It's Miss Hae-In.

What a coincidence.

She is still as beautiful.

Why?

Why not disclose the information about the winged ants to the public,

but only to a small group of people?

It's an order from the association.

They believe that disclosing it now would only cause unnecessary panic.

But…

Don't worry about it.

We need to build up our power

to become the largest guild in the country and take on the responsibilities.

When obtaining this key,

I was worried that this place might be an S-Rank dungeon.

But the demons here seem to be around the upper B-Rank.

ITEM: ENTRY PERMIT 6TH FLOOR TO 7TH FLOOR

They come in great numbers.

And the higher I go, the stronger they get.

But as long as I focus on taking down the demons carrying permits,

it's still an easy climb up.

SKILLS SKILL LEVEL INCREASED, RULER'S HAND, LV.2

That being said,

if the structure of the Demon's Castle is the same as that of the original tower,

then there will be 100 floors.

I wonder how strong I'll become when I reach the top floor.

DEMON SOULS COLLECTED: 3712/10000

More importantly, I don't know if there'll be enough food.

And there's the promise I made with Jinah.

DEMON SOULS COLLECTED: 4059/10000

It seems

this will be a battle against time.

DEMON SOULS COLLECTED

DEMON SOULS COLLECTED

DEMON SOULS COLLECTED

DEMON SOULS COLLECTED: 10000/10000

I don't know how high I can climb.

A red-name enemy?

LORD OF THE LOWER FLOORS: AVARICIOUS VULCAN

49TH FLOOR TO 50TH FLOOR

Hunter Sung is not at home.

There's only his sister.

She only knows that he's gone on a trip.

We've come all the way to his place in vain.

He hasn't participated in any raid missions recently.

There are no records of him crossing the border.

His last known location tracked by the association

was in the very center of the urban area.

You can find out things like this?

It's my job after all.

I wonder where he is right now.

Leave that big boss to me.

You take care of the rest.

Thanks to the increase in intelligence,

the number of soldiers and the magic power needed to maintain them have both increased significantly.

It gives me plenty of leeway during combat.

But anyway,

how long does it plan to sit there?

If it doesn't move, I'll take the initiative to attack…

What are you doing?

Whoa…

I just threw a punch.

Did I put too many points into strength?

AVARICIOUS VULCAN USED RAGE The skill Cerberus used?

Iron.

Continuous combos.

How can it be so nimble?

But,

there must be an opportunity for me.

Now!

I got you!

Darn…

SKILLS SKILL LEVEL INCREASED, RULER'S HAND, LV.2

Ah.

This beast

read my movement?

The only place I can inflict damage

is that small head?

First, I need to restrict its strange movements.

But how?

That is it.

Did your rage make you blind to your surroundings?

YOU HAVE DEFEATED THE LORD OF THE LOWER FLOORS: AVARICIOUS VULCAN

ITEM: WORLD TREE FRAGMENT ADVANCED MAGIC TOOLS MATERIALS

I can't believe there's a talking magic beast.

I've said it many times, I am not a magic beast.

If you don't believe me,

you can test my DNA or whatever.

Shut up.

Just answer my question.

I'm quite annoyed for being called out during a good time.

Heck.

They dumped this trouble on me.

Hey, can I ask a question?

I told you to shut up.

How much do humans know about the gates and magic beasts?

Ha?

How much do you know about the gates and magic beasts?

What does that mean?

Dungeons, gates, magic beasts.

All those are just premonitions.

The worst catastrophic force has finally awakened.

What is that?

The worst disaster.

I can only say this much.

So?

My goal is to prevent the disaster from happening.

Stop spouting nonsense.

Do you know how many hunters there are in the world now?

If we gather the hunters…

Number of people is powerless in the face of that force.

They will only be devoured and exploited.

You seem to have some strength…

What?

A magic beast has a name like humans, huh?

And,

you also have a wife and two kids.

Do you still remember your son's name?

Jinwoo.

Why do you have this murderous aura?

I've said I won't answer your questions.

Answer me.

No, I will not.

But I can tell you one thing.

That is, your son is already dead.

If there are any last words,

go tell him yourself in hell.

What?

The battle is one-sided.

Are you surprised by our strength?

You didn't expect this, did you?

Do immortal magic beasts also feel fear?

Fine.

YOU HAVE DEFEATED METUS, GUIDE OF SOULS

LEVELED UP

Over here!

Quickly!

I have heard of it.

When S-Rank hunters fight each other, that power can destroy the terrain and turn the surroundings into ruins.

So this is the disaster.

Yes, we can consider ourselves lucky.

In an instant,

in the blink of an eye,

Mr. Hwang was defeated.

He lost before the disaster spread.

The food has run out.

This is as far as I can go this time.

I'm on the 75th floor,

so there should be about 25 floors left.

I have a long way to go.

But the harvest is quite bountiful.

This earring was obtained from the big boss on the 50th floor.

The necklace was from the skeleton just now.

SET ITEM EFFECT Both have impressive effects.

ALL STATS +5 Both have impressive effects.

ALL STATS +5 But the set item effect is more noteworthy.

Judging by the display,

there should be another Boss-level magic beast.

This Avaricious Glass is also nice.

Although it's of no use to me,

I can transfer it to someone else.

If magic soldiers have it,

their power of magic will be doubled.

Besides,

Cursed Random Loot Box I chose in the quest rewards.

I thought I could no longer obtain it, which made me somewhat regretful.

I guessed so.

It is still a key.

Information unclear?

When and where is this to be used?

ITEM: UNKNOWN

However, these are not my purpose for this journey.

World Tree Fragment

obtained when killing Avaricious Vulcan on the 50th floor,

and Echo Forest Water

ELIXIR OF LIFE, CRAFT obtained after killing the guide of souls, Metus

ELIXIR OF LIFE, CRAFT on the 75th floor.

Among the three materials for the Elixir of Life,

I have already obtained two,

just one more to go.

Just one more item for saving mom…

Next time I come here,

I will get it.
