    “We have a D rank dungeon scheduled for today at 2pm–”

    “Wait… is this Sung Jinwoo?”

    Jinwoo flushed. His trainer was still sitting next to him, listening in. “It is. Can I add your name to–”

    “Are you working for the KHA now? I thought you died!”

    “I’ve only been gone for two weeks,” Jinwoo said, his voice flat.

    Summary

    Sung Jin-Woo is still the Shadow Monarch and he still grows in power unlike any other hunter. However, he doesn't have the system to back him up. He is a reawakened hunter with the skill to create undead shadow soldiers without any cheats or instant healing. Bearing the injuries of the double dungeon must fight the trials ahead of him with far more public scrutiny than before.

    In other words

    Solo leveling but there's no system and Jin-Woo responds to things like a real person who has emotions. He's still OP but not nearly to the level as in canon. He functions with the same worldbuilding as all the other Hunters in the setting, with things taking a pretty different course in the long run.

    Summary

    Even with the best thought-out plans in mind, things don't always work out. When that happens, all that's left is to adjust and to make the best of what you have.

    When an accident occurs while using the Cup of Reincarnation to rewind time, Jin-Woo finds himself back to the beginning of his story without his Shadow Monarch powers. With his original plan out the window, and retaining prior knowledge and memories of the previous timeline, Jin-Woo must relive his adventures and regain his Shadow Monarch powers not only to become stronger but to create a better future for all.
