📖 What Happens in This Chapter?

Chapter 57 brings the Red Gate Dungeon arc to an epic conclusion — and it’s intense from start to finish. After surviving the brutal snowy dungeon and protecting his party, Sung Jin-Woo finally comes face-to-face with the dungeon’s terrifying boss. And trust me, this isn’t just any enemy — it’s a giant statue with enough power to crush mountains.

⚔️ Enter the Final Boss

The chapter kicks off with a dramatic scene: a massive stone statue, sitting eerily still on a throne deep inside the boss room. But of course, nothing stays still for long. As Jin-Woo steps forward, the statue’s eyes glow red, its arm transforms into a hammer-like weapon, and suddenly the whole place feels alive with danger. The tension? Through the roof.

🧙 Jin-Woo Unleashes the Shadows

Wasting no time, Jin-Woo summons his loyal shadow army. Led by Igris, they charge straight at the boss, filling the room with clashing steel and magical chaos. But the statue is no pushover — it smashes the ground, sends shadows flying, and keeps the pressure on. It’s clearly one of Jin-Woo’s toughest fights yet.

So, he jumps in too — lightning-fast, dual daggers flashing, slipping between attacks like a seasoned warrior. You can really feel how far he’s come as a hunter.

💥 The Finishing Blow

After a brutal back-and-forth, Jin-Woo finally finds his opening. He strikes true — slicing into the statue’s core. The giant crumbles, the dungeon starts shaking, and those glowing red eyes fade out for good. Just like that, he clears another deadly gate.

🎁 Rewards Time

Victory comes with perks, of course. Jin-Woo calmly gathers the loot — magical items, system rewards, and a nice bump to his level. Every win brings him one step closer to becoming the most powerful hunter alive.

🧟 A Powerful Ending

The chapter wraps up on a quiet but powerful note. Jin-Woo stands tall, and his shadow army kneels before him — a sign of their absolute loyalty. It’s hard to believe this is the same guy who was once struggling as an E-rank hunter. Now? He’s a force of nature, and this chapter makes that crystal clear.
