- Bonus points for killing all enemies - Bonus points for not using teleport stone - Bonus points for surviving as long. Penalty zone is 4-hours + 30 min in that room.
His job was Necromancer. All of the Bonus Points gave him a job advancement which took him to the final stages of the Necromancer job, thus Shadow Monarch. Kinda like how people can start off as a Warrior and advance to a higher level like a Knight or a Paladin. Jinwoo just reached the final form of a Necromancer. Thus, his true potential as a hunter starts here. Next season we will see what Jinwoo is capable of, not only as a hunter but as a Shadow Monarch, which is something the entire world has never seen even among S Rank hunters.
The manwha clarifies it even more by having a page that shows a Warrior would advance to a Berserker, a Knight would advance to a Swordmaster, a Magician would advance to a Grand Magician, and a Necromancer advances to a Shadow Lord (They call it Lord in the manwha but Lord/Monarch are the same thing)
@TheOctaviusLee That must have been a bad translation page then. Shadow Monarch is the name, and if you read the whole manhwa or not... spoilers ahead.... The class is called Shadow Monarch, because that was Ashborne's title. Ashborne was originally the strongest Ruler, under the command of God, and was his most loyal subject. Their enemies were the Monarchs. After what happens, if you know then you know, Ashborne became a Monarch, and his title was the Shadow Monarch. Thus, why the class given to Jinwoo is called the Shadow Monarch. It was never Shadow Lord. Whichever site you read that on gave a bad translation for that title. It was always meant to be Monarch specifically as they were the direct opposition of the Rulers. Lord, although synonymous, was never meant to be used.
Just to clarify Shadow Monarch is the tier above Necromancer - also so far everything he has been able to use in the gates made by the system, he has been able to use outside as well so hint hint lol
Hi, i am back. Good reaction, ty. Morgan always impressing me. She connects the dots so well. I missed a lot of stuff on 1st watch. I was surprised. Crunchyroll just confirmed Solo Leveling Season 2 -Arise from the Shadow. Not sure when it will drop but a teaser is out already. They also launching a game soon and a drama too. I think the other dungeons are real too. I think whatever he slayed he can take as soldier. Borahae. -NY USA 2019 Army💟
ARISE!!! my fellow solo levelers, the shadow army is born now!! First commander IGRIS in the house. This is the real start, and I think we will have 24 EPS for Season 1 cuz this is not the end of season 1 on manhwa.
Who knew doing tactical delay of daily questing would come in handy lol. To be fair he came in there at the start so unprepared. Also lmao I said the same thing about the telekinesis with the teleportation stone with this new skill because how much he loses it lol. If he shows Jinho any of his summoning though.. lol. His reaction is gonna be the best.
He got the prestige class (shadow monarch) because be got so many points due to the amount of time he "survived" the battle. The 4 hours he was in the penalty zone were counted as time surviving. So instead of points for the 29 minutes he actually survived, he got points for 4 hours and 29 minutes. Then be got bonus points for not using the teleport stone and more bonus points for defeating all of the enemies.
also get ready for the ride, as a reader of the manwha this season feels more like an introduction, also based on the manwha content this show looks like it will go beyond season 3 or 4 (or maybe fill some arcs with a movie somewhat)
You seemed to have missed the notice in the previous episode (they are always gone too fast) but it said his job change quest only started after he defeated Igris the Bloodred. 3:00 Yoo~ Morgan cracking it! It's like she's in the zone with RPG mechanics. Such a stark difference to Hunter × Hunter, where the others had to explain to her all the time. 11:25 It wasn't explained but he can only preserve 20 shadows while being able to control up to 30 simultaneously. So he has to let go of ten anyway plus one for Igris/Ygritte. *SPOILER:* 18:48 YOOOO, WTF!
It wasn't a mental attack. It was his own insecurities bubbling up because he was losing confidence. Basically, he was having a pity party because he thought he was about to die.
You probably didn't realized it yet but remember on the first episode where they were fighting giant ants, that was the jeju raid. Then on the last episode the ants that they discovered has wings. That means the ants are evolving.
I really wish people would also read the Manwha. They skipped SO MUCH and low-key censored quite a few ruthless Sung moments and others that show more of his personality as wekk as the world

Jin-woo isn't ready for Jeju just yet. Right now he's maybe an upper A-rank. Frankly, he shouldn't have won the fight against Igris, he just got REALLY lucky. At a minimum Jin-woo is going to want to be S-Rank before going to Jeju or he'll get wrecked.
Seems to me he should have died vs the dog. It was guarding and inside an S rank dungeon!?! Also, how did he not bleed half to death vs Igris after all that pounding?! It all seems rigged to be honest. Fun, but felt too rigged. He barely had a bruise after Igris. After saying how strong Igris was and not being able to heal. Smdh. He stopped that sword with his hand?!!? Df?!?!
SPOILERS!!!! I read it, you can spoil it. I thought everything in the gate is real especially during the Demon Castle Arc when Jin woo meets Esil. I know the system is there to help him slowly handle Ashborn Power but are you telling me all the dungeons the system made is not real? @@2koldwilson
@@HollywoodClipzz Spoilers for those who haven't read the story... The dungeons it creates are real, and yet not. If you remember when Jinwo dies and first speaks with Ashborne, he is told about the Eternal Rest Realm that the Shadow Monarch rules over as the incarnation of death itself. While inside of that realm, their powers are literally omnipotent. The dungeons created exist within the Eternal Rest Realm and are very real, and yet are a creation of Ashborne's power. Take the White Flame Monarch, for example, being alive in the Demon Castle dungeon. It was just a replica created by Ashborne for the dungeon because the real Monarch was already killed by Ashborne long before now. It is also how Jinwoo was able to meet Igris and fight him in his living form. Igris was already one of Ashborne's strongest and most loyal Shadow warriors. He was sent to Jinwoo as a test by Ashborne. He chose Igris because he knew that Igris would not only Cary out his commands perfectly, but that when the time came, he would also follow Jinwoo with the same amount of loyalty. In other words, everything was both real and not real at the same time. It just existed within an entirely different realm that exists separately from the realm of the living, because it is the realm of Death itself.
No, it is the mid season finale, or the end of Cour 1. We get Cour 2, the second half of season 1, in about 3 months. Which will be another 12 episodes and will likely be about the castle he fought the Cerberus at and the Jeju Island Arc that they have preluded to at the end here. That's all I can say with no spoilers.
He will be able to use his shadow powers on anybody he kills in and out of dungeons. That's all I'll say just wanted to answer my lady's question. Love your reactions!
😍Dani🥰Murda call me and said he had to tell me something. When he said.”Not for phones.” Im at the gate. My heart dropped. I love my brothers, don’t get me wrong. Murda can compartmentalize. Wild Bill can not. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if something happened to one of these civilians. To my surprise, when I got to Murda’s car, they had like four girls from my school with them, talking and laughing…They definitely caught them coming back on campus. Thank God for pretty girls. I’m back in my dorm room and none of my brothers was killed in the situation.Fuck the other side! On King David.
His dad cant be the past king he's still at the grocery store picking up the milk. Also you are correct Igris was protecting the throne of the previous king who was the shadow monarch but I wont say more to avoid spoilers.
Are you trying to confuse everyone.....did you read right to the end of the Manwha....even the side stories. It gives more of an explanation about the previous Shadow Monarch.
@@blowemi I'll give a hint 🌳. I think it will be revealed in season/cour 5 in the anime if it continues on this rate and considering some additional scenes.

so ready for non-solo leveling, duo leveling, team leveling
Franchise Leveling.

The ants are getting wings, yes
In the beginning these Girls were predicting everything and few seconds later,they were right 😂
shadow monarch is not a subclass... he exceeded the threshold of necromancer so is a higher tier class/job
ARISE!!! my fellow solo levelers, the shadow army is born now!! First commander IGRIS in the house.
This is the real start, and I think we will have 24 EPS for Season 1 cuz this is not the end of season 1 on manhwa.
Igris, stop protecting someone who is gone and protect me! Arise!
Cour 2/season two is filled with such cool moments, can't wait for it to release 🙌
A successful and great adaptation ❤

Lol it is wings. One of you were talking about capturing the monsters like Pokémon back in episode 3 little did you know xd
2:55 since his fatigue was high he i guess started to hallucinate them
That's not really it. He was losing confidence because he was getting his butt kicked, so his old insecurities came bubbling up.
The prologue is over, I cant wait for Sung Drip Woo arc in second season
