Jinchul Woo is a top A-class hunter and the president of the Hunter’s Association?but that is a tale from another timeline. In a world where gates and magic beasts and hunters are nothing but fiction, Jinchul Woo is now a detective with the violent crimes investigation unit, and his latest cases have been...well, “strange” doesn’t even begin to describe them. Criminals keep turning themselves in out of fear of being torn to pieces by some otherworldly shadow ant creatures, and his only lead is the testimony of a trackand- field coach who swears that his star athlete was spotted with said creatures. Jinchul can’t help but doubt the claims; after all, Jinwoo Sung seems like a perfectly normal high school kid...Join Jinwoo and his friends, both human and shadow, in these snippets from their peaceful, not-quite-ordinary lives!

Jinwoo faces off against the Monarchs in the heart of Seoul, but three otherworldly beings prove to be too much even for him. It’s the end of the road for this hunter-except that death means little to the Shadow Monarch, King of the Dead. As Jinwoo confronts the true source of his newfound powers at long last, a hunter who was thought to be lost forever steps in to protect the defenseless body of humanity’s last chance, no matter the cost!

After saving Jinho from the vengeful Dongsoo Hwang, Jinwoo makes a public declaration that he will protect his family and friends no matter what. But when a close ally is killed in a sudden attack by the otherworldly Monarchs, Jinwoo is forced to reexamine who it is he wants to protect-and just how far he’ll go to do so.

Jinwoo is alarmed to learn about the timeless war between the Monarchs and the Rulers—a war that, according to the King of the Giants, will soon rage on Earth. To complicate matters, the world’s third-strongest hunter is found dead, and Jinwoo’s father is the primary suspect—despite having been lost to a gate ten years ago! The two members of Ahjin Guild head for the US to attend the International Guild Conference and get to the bottom of things. Little do they realize that setting foot in America means crossing paths with Dongsoo Hwang, who has a bone to pick with Jinwoo about the death of his brother—and isn’t above using Jinho as bait!

Jinwoo follows the call of the system and returns to the double dungeon that started it all in the hope of finally receiving some answers. What he doesn’t expect is to find his toughest opponent yet! Meanwhile, an S-rank gate looms over Tokyo, and after the loss of their strongest hunters, Japan turns to outside help?but with a worldwide increase in magic beast activity, only one S-rank hunter accepts their offer…Will that be enough to stop the magic beasts before they lay waste to Japan and beyond?
