Solo Leveling Chapter 158: Release Date, Delay, Discussion

In Chapter 157, the fight between Thomas Andre and the Beast Monarch continued, as the latter transformed into his beast form, the former changed to his Reinforcement mode.

The Beast went so wild that even the Guild master Choi Jong-In felt his powers. On the other hand, White Tiger guild master Baek Yoon-Ho felt the presence of monstrous animals in the Beast. As a result, he couldn’t even look in his eyes out of fear.

In the last pages, the Beast even defeated Jin-Woo’s shadow soldier. At the same time, Lennart Niermann intervened, leaving everyone confused. Will Sung Jin-Woo finally show up in the end?

Let’s find out! We bring you the latest chapter updates for this manga.  

1. Chapter 158 Discussions and Predictions

The German hunter took his chance to shine and save Andre from getting killed by the beast Monarch, despite being well aware of the fact that he is weaker than Thomas.

And, if even ‘The Goliath’ can’t defeat the monster, there’s no chance for him to do that. However, he still interfered, which makes me wonder if he has any hidden powers.

Sung Jin-Woo was missing throughout the chapter, even after getting a report of the attack in the previous chapter, which could mean that he is planning something big.

So the next chapter would most probably show him barging in and saving his fellow hunters.

If the Beast Monarch has beastification, there are chances that necromancers with weaker shadow soldiers are also present out there. We need more proof to confirm this theory, though!

4. Chapter 157 Recap

Several major Guilds arrive at the scene, while Thomas Andre continues to fight with the mysterious Beast.

Guild master Choi Jong-In also arrives and wonders who this monster is because his presence feels worse than the one he felt during the Jeju island raid.

Even after trying his best and fighting with the Beast for a while, Thomas Andre, the national-level hunter, is still unable to get him down. The duo continues to destroy the buildings nearby, and the spectators watch them.

White Tiger guild master Baek Yoon-Ho also arrives and realizes that Thomas has entered the ‘Reinforcement’ mode. He is shocked to see the giant Beast, and an expression of fear appears over his face.

The hunters present there praises Thomas and shouts that he is the best. But Thomas angrily shouts at them to take the cover instead of just watching.

Baek Yoon-Ho realizes that the monster Thomas is fighting is not normal. He is so scared that he couldn’t even look into the monster’s eyes when he approaches him.

As the Beast comes forward, Yoon-Ho senses the presence of different monstrous animals within the Beast’s body and realizes that the Beast also possesses the Sixth sense of an animal. He hopes to not be recognized as prey.

At the same time, Thomas walks towards the Beast. The Beast uses his magic powers to float all the metal objects in the air and throws them all at once towards Thomas.

However, Thomas manages to escape his attack and proceeds to throw massive punches at him. The monster realizes a feeling of uneasiness and that he won’t win.

So, he transforms into his more monstrous form and asks Thomas if he is afraid.

The shadow soldier Jin-Woo put on Thomas interferes, but the monster takes him down immediately. Thomas stands up again and grabs the monster from behind, but the monster escapes his hold and turns behind.

Just when he tries to finish him off, the Beast gets distracted by Lennart Niermann, who is standing in front of him with a great aura.
