Solo Leveling Chapter 157: Release Date, Delay, Discussion

In Chapter 156,a giant and creepy monster was spotted in the streets of Seoul, who destroyed the buildings nearby and even ate a B-Rank hunter. Meanwhile, Jin-Woo was still having the date with Cha Hae-In.

When Jin-Woo learned about the monster, he wondered why his shadow soldiers hadn’t contacted him yet. Then he realized that someone had purposely disrupted the signal with his soldiers.

He asked Woo Jin-Chul whether the monster has a shadow as he suspected a colossal monster hiding behind the shadow.

Meanwhile, Thomas Andre and Lennart Niermann reached the scene. Lennart rescued the citizens nearby while Andre faced off against the monster.

Can Thomas Andre defeat the monster? Or will Sung Jin-Woo reach the scene on time to help him? Let’s find out!

We bring you the latest chapter updates for this manga.  

1. Chapter 157 Discussions and Predictions

If what Jin-Woo suspects is true, there is no way Thomas Andre could stand off against that monster when he releases his shadow.

So, there are chances that the Goliath will probably get beaten and be saved by Sung Jin-Woo at the last second by doing shadow exchange with his soldiers.

The shadow monarch that Jin-Woo suspects to be lurking behind the shadow might be the Frost Monarch who killed chairman Go Gun-Hee. It is evident from what Jin-Woo remarked. Moreover, the monarch has not yet made a comeback after the incident.

With the greatest gate in history appearing over Seoul, the president of the Korean Hunter Association Guild being killed, and now the shadow monarch lurking behind, I wonder how Jin-Woo will save the city and the citizens.

The upcoming chapters will answer all our questions.

4. Chapter 156 Recap

A recently promoted B-Rank hunter casually walks around the streets of Seoul, when he bumps into a giant guy with flashy eyes. The hunter starts shouting at him, but before he could say more, the gigantic guy gulps him down in one go.

The giant then proceeds to hurt other hunters around the building and threatens to kill anyone who will come in his way. He calls himself ‘The King of Beasts’ and ‘The Beast Monarch.’ Hunter’s Association Guild gets notified about the situation.

Meanwhile, Sung Jin-Woo is still with Cha Hae-In as they explore nature. Sung Jin-Woo suggests going to a hotel nearby to have a meal. When Cha Hae-In agrees, he summons Kaisel and flies to the hotel with her.

At Hunter’s Association Guild, Chairman Woo Jin-Chul tries to contact Jin-Woo but couldn’t do so. One of his juniors informs him that a world-class hunter who claims to be able to fight the monster has appeared.

At the scene, Lennart faces the monster and thinks that maybe he was destined to defeat it. Suddenly, a heavy voice from behind distracts him, and Thomas Andre tells him to get off the way.

At the same time, Jin-Woo gets a call from the guild and learns about the situation. He wonders why the shadow soldiers that he put on Thomas and other hunters didn’t contact him.

Jin-Woo notices that his signal with the shadow soldiers has disconnected. He realizes that someone is purposely making the signal weak and wonders who is doing this. He informs Hae-in about what’s happening back in Seoul.

Jin-Woo then asks the chairman if that monster has a shadow as he suspects a colossal monster hiding behind the shadow.

At the scene, Thomas Andre yells at Lennart to rescue the citizens instead of standing like a statue. He clashes with the monster and pins him down to the ground.
