*The Appearance of the Shadow Monarch*
In the last episode of the season, Jinwoo finds himself in a dire situation: he is besieged by relentless knights while his strength, health, and stamina dwindle. Though overwhelmed and on the verge of defeat, an unexpected twist occurs when Jinwoo, having neglected his daily system tasks, is sent to a penalty zone. This fortunate turn of events allows him to face off against several giant centipedes and defeat them with ease, leveling up and replenishing his health and mana in the process. Additionally, he obtains a new, highly effective dagger capable of piercing even armored foes.
Back in the job-change dungeon, Jinwoo adjusts his strategy upon discovering that the mages are responsible for summoning the knights through the gates. By prioritizing the elimination of the mages, he effectively reduces the influx of knights. The mages attempt to counter this by merging the knights into a massive armored golem, but this ultimately backfires, as it weakens their defense against Jinwoo's attacks. After obliterating the remaining mages and the golem, Jinwoo is offered the chance to change his class to Necromancer—an offer he initially accepts with reluctance.
However, Jinwoo proceeds with the job change to Necromancer and subsequently ascends to the more powerful position of Shadow Monarch. He experiments with his newfound abilities, successfully forming a shadow army from the deceased knights and convincing their leader, Igris, to pledge loyalty to him. This development marks a significant shift for Jinwoo, as he transforms from the once-weakest hunter into a terrifying force capable of summoning fallen warriors to aid him.
This progression poses a challenge to Jinwoo's desire to remain inconspicuous, especially regarding potential investigations by organizations like the Hunter's Guild/Association. The episode concludes with a preview of Jinwoo's involvement in the upcoming battle for Jeju Island, setting the stage for the next season.
