This Manhwa Shows What Solo Leveling Would Be Like If There Were Multiple Players

Early into the era of official English-translated manhwa was a series that asked what would happen if hundreds of people could alter their own stats.

Like other national-level hunters, Christopher’s powers are otherworldly. When push comes to shove, he is able to transform into a one-eyed humanoid monster with frightening abilities. One of his most potent powers in this form is his ability to generate flames that are so dangerous that it would take several S-rank hunters just to extinguish them. Without hunters, even an entire nation with the most sophisticated war technology stands no chance against him.

Thomas is a proud and somewhat arrogant man, but he also cares deeply about the people around him. He is also humble in defeat and is open-minded enough to not let his ego cloud his judgment. Because of his frightening strength, Andre possesses incredible influence and is strong enough to overpower a country’s entire military in strength.
