The Jeju Island raid is not going as planned. Even a team of S-Rank hunters are no match for the monsters that lurk on the island. Seems like only one person might have the power to defeat them.

In the aftermath of the Jeju Island raid, the plot thickens. Other forces are at play, both magic beats and government nations. What are they aiming for? And will Jinwoo be able to stand up to them? More importantly, what toll will this take on him, his family, and the world at large. If a person can get this strong, is there any way to stop them? The moral questions start to grow as we realize that our main character finds himself as, well, the main character.

I'm curious to see where the story goes from here. The story has gone beyond what I thought would be the scope of the narrative, and continues to one-up itself in each installment.
