I stepped out of the Tutorial is Too Hard world. I had some nice gains but it was hard to find a real challenge when they literally gave us a bunch of options to skip all the waiting around. It was time to move on now that I had three more doors that could be opened. I had to make sure to keep opening doors before Easton noticed and took all the new doors. Manhwa had many opportunistic worlds, and staying in one would just waste all the time we spent growing.
Curious what the next world could bring, it was nice to finally have some fun with these worlds. Hancock and I had lived it up in Second Life Ranker and Tutorial is too Hard so far, I wanted to keep our momentum going. I moved to the 1 o’clock door, excited to see what lay beyond.
Once inside, the scenery around me turned into a small apartment. Some trash littering the crusty carpet. The room was cramped but livable.
“Freakin Hancock is probably a princess,” I grumbled as I walked to where I guessed the bathroom was. She had been quite lucky on cushy backstories thus far. Looking in a mirror, I was skinny at least. Some actual muscle on me, I was happy with this version of me. Memories quickly flooded in as I studied my face.
I was Weston Woon. 22 years old again and lived in Seoul, South Korea. I had awakened as a Hunter over a year ago. I had been more than excited about the awakening when it happened, but then I was only judged to be worthy of a D-rank. I had killed a few monsters, but mainly did no-risk work in dungeons.
With that information, I was fairly certain I knew what world I was in. The memories continued to fill my mind. My parents were killed in a dungeon break a few years ago. I had no one but myself to rely on. I maintained my own apartment and simple lifestyle by acting as a porter for a local guild. No real contract set-up; the guilds I worked with only asked for me when they were short-handed. The memories settled, my heartbeat quickened further as I got the notification.
You have chosen Solo Leveling WorldNôv(el)B\\jnn |
Not everything has to involve Returners. |
I really loved the Solo Leveling Manhwa. In the source material, the main protagonist was a weakling, of course, and he became the strongest person in the world by fighting monsters and leveling up. Gaining a video game-like ability, he was able to surpass every other human in the world.
My body began to expand with new muscles as my World Lasting Physique kicked in. Plenty strong from my main other worlds, I did my best to ignore the pain by recalling what I could about the new world.
In the world of Solo Leveling, portals from other worlds popped up randomly. Around the same time portals showed up, people started awakening impossibly strong abilities. These people were called Hunters. Your strength and skills reflected class-based techniques inspired by role-playing games like healing, super strength, spells, and other classic moves. If you awakened as a Hunter, you could be super strong or weak, depending on your luck. Only Awakened Hunters could survive these portals/dungeons. Ranked from E to S-Class, the story followed the man known as the weakest Hunter in South Korea.
“A man I know,” I said with a gasp as my pain subsided. When I thought of the weakest Hunter I knew, I could only think of one person. My friend Sung Jin-woo. He was known for always getting hurt in dungeons, no one liked to dungeon-dive with the guy because he had to hog the healer's focus, but his mom was sick, and he needed to work to pay for her medical bills.
I pulled my cell phone out. His text was the first in my list. Like he did every time before he entered a dungeon he texted me. Take care, was all he sent. I received it less than an hour ago.
“Fuck,” I said. He had entered a dungeon. “Was it-” I stopped asking as a pop-up appeared.
Solo Leveling Quest 1: |
Pass the Dungeon Trial |
Reward: |
Player |
“Fuck!” I yelled. I didn’t hesitate to break my window with my Tremor Devil Fruit and jump out. Pooling water under me, chakra kept me afloat on top of the water as I headed to the nearest Hunter HQ.
I began to hyperventilate from excitement as I gained speed. Not only was I getting the Reward I actually wanted in manhwa, but I had the chance to really become the protagonist. Not some ambiguous side-character with a bunch of quests in front of me where I didn’t know the ending. But a full-blown overpowered protagonist with broken skills. I could have front-row seats to one of the most epic power leveling stories ever told. With the strength I earned from Solo Leveling, I knew I could pass all the other rooms in the Manhwa Hall with ease. This was like joining MHA World and you were able to force your way into getting One-For-All instead of Midoriya.
My heart beating like a drum in my chest, I flew on my disc of water for all I was worth. Wind roaring all around me, I dropped down at the front door of the large Hunter Association HQ. Pushing past people, they yelled at me, but I didn’t care. I ran to the stairs and up to the 3rd floor. Skipping steps, I barely had a mind to breathe, let alone care about who I had to knock down in my way.
Moving past cubicles, I spoke to the only person that could help. “Ji, where did Sung Jin-Woo go to for his dungeon today?!”
“Woah, Weston,” the girl said. She was a little older than me, but had given me a few tips on people hiring porters in the past. “I’m on the phone.” I pulled out a stack of Won from my status screen and dropped it on her desk. Her eyes bulged, and she slammed her phone down. “Who?”
“Sung Jin-Woo?”
“The Weakest Hunter?” She asked, like it was some earned title. .
“The same,” I said, catching my breath. She got onto her computer and began typing.
“Uh looks like portal opened in the basement of a newly constructed building. He joined a smaller group from the Hunter Guild. Over by Gyeong and Aera-”
I knew the place. I turned as she made the won disappear. I could have sworn the dungeon I was hoping for was in a construction area, at least from what I remembered of the source material.
There was literally no time to waste. I looked to the window facing the busy street and broke it with a Tremor. People were yelling as I jumped out of the window. Before I hit the street, water caught me and I was on my way. Only to gain a huge amount of speed as I headed toward the intersection the dungeon was at.
It was easy to find. A squad of police cars was outside the building to make sure no one snuck in. I dropped down over their heads and landed behind their blockade easily. Running in, a few yelled at me, but I ignored them. Feeling the spiritual energy in the dark, half-built office building, I found some concrete stairs that went down.
As I ran, I was almost knocked over by someone trying to flee. The guy in a suit of armor and with a sword at his back didn’t pause and kept going. “Guess I’m in the right place,” I said as I ran the way he had come from.
The black and blue portal to another world was soon in front of me. The portal poured out a huge amount of Spiritual Energy. I headed in without hesitation. I didn’t bother to look at the cavern I was in. The dungeon portal took me to a whole new world, but I couldn’t care less. My target was ahead. Speeding up, more people were running my way. Chakra all over my body I began to float on water-chakra again.
People missing limbs continued to run in the opposite direction. Bloody stumps for arms, disheveled and dirty, they resembled those leaving a war zone. I headed toward where they were coming from. A set of large iron double doors with intricate designs etched in their face, they slowly closed just ahead. With a burst of speed, I flew inside as a man carried a girl outside.
What lay inside was what I expected. The room had a blue glow to it. A huge stone statue straight ahead, it was of a man seated on a throne. A good 50 feet tall. The statue stared at the center of the room. 12 other statues only 20 feet tall were slowly walking toward an altar in the middle of the room. A beaten and bloody Sung Jin-Woo laid atop it. Breathing his last breaths, his spiritual energy was weak but there. I ran toward him. Flames around the altar slowly flickered out. I clicked summon as I got close to him.
“Weston!” Hancock yelled. Completely nude this time, she covered herself up as the last flame winked out around us.
“You’ll thank me later, my dear,” I said confidently as one of the stone statues raised it’s sword. The statue swung the sword down toward us and time froze. Unable to move my body, I received multiple notifications in quick succession.

~ Today ~
(Chapters 124-131 of Solo Leveling Manhwa)
I woke up to a gorgeous woman on either arm. Their smooth, naked skin upon mine was the best way to wake up in the morning. My eyes moved slowly to the face of the woman I had woke up next to consistently for over a year now, Hancock Byun.
Though her original name was Hancock Boa, when she joined me on my adventure, the System had changed her name in each Hall as it did mine. She was a gorgeous dark-haired woman. Long black hair, a tall forehead, a thin but long nose, smooth cheeks, deep red pouty lips, and the most amazing pair of tits god gifted to any one woman. Larger than DD, they stayed perky even as she lay on me.
Her dark eyes opened as I stared at her. Blinking rapidly, her red lips split into a deep smile. “Hello, husband,” she whispered.
“Hello, wife,” I said, mirroring her smile. I couldn’t help but stare into her eyes as I felt the warmth radiating off of her Haki. Memories of our wedding nights playing through my mind as we stared at one another.
My skill with Haki had been rather cursory when I came to the Manhwa Hall. I could get a sense of a few emotions here and there, but now I could practically read people’s minds from their spiritual energy. Hancock released pure love and happiness.
It hadn’t always been that way of course. So desperate to make herself known and needed in my world travels, she had done much to try to please me, rather than what she wanted. But as time together went on, we let our true selves show more.
I could honestly say I was glad she was with me. No, we didn’t agree on everything. No marriage was perfect. But where it mattered, we did agree, which meant all the world to me. Our fights had become fewer and farther between as we made lives in these new worlds, and I counted on her far more than I had anyone else since I started these Challenges.
I moved to get on top of her but she whispered, “stop.”
“Hmm?” I asked, frowning.
“You’ll wake her,” she said, looking at the other woman on my shoulder.
I turned to face the girl on my left. Her bright blonde hair a stark contrast to Hancock’s black, she didn’t have quite the body, or rack of Hancock either, but she was still gorgeous.
One of the strongest women in this world, her name was Cha Hae-In. An S-Class hunter from the Hunter guild, she was Hancock’s best friend, and the newest addition to our bedroom activities.
“I’m still surprised she joined us,” I admitted.
It had been a long six months in Solo Leveling World. 6 months of relative time at least. I had probably spent 7 months in the world, since I got stuck in a couple of dungeons with time dilation. Either way, we had only left now and then since we got to the world.
Hancock and I had lucked into becoming Players like the main protagonist, Sung Jin-Woo. The quest for becoming Players had also awarded us to get a Passive Skill as a Player. Which allowed us to level up in other worlds of Manhwa. Our World Lasting Physiques allowing us to grow far stronger than anyone else as we jumped from world to world, manhwa was proving to be far easier to get stronger in than the Manga hall had been. .
At first my path in Solo Leveling was simply getting as strong as possible as fast as possible. Especially as Hunters only increased in quantity as Hancock and I went around the world, conquering dungeons and having fun.
I wasn’t exactly sure what had changed between canon and this world. I was fairly certain Sung Jin-woo was the only Player in canon, but lately I was starting to think maybe there were more. For some reason S-Rank dungeons kept popping up, and unknown Hunters I didn’t recognize kept conquering them. People that were gaining fame rather quickly as Hancock and I had. Able to gain levels and strength by completing daily quests and killing monsters, it was the ultimate cheat skill. If other people had this same ability, I wondered where this was all leading. A lot had strayed from canon from what I remembered, so all I could do was take it day by day.
Letting out a sigh I pushed my worries away about the canon and shrugged Cha Hae-In off my shoulder. She yelped as she was forcefully awoken and I laid atop the naked Hancock. The natural Lust aura I exuded with my chakra ensured Hancock’s lower lips were already drenched. Allowing my rock-hard dick to penetrate her in a slow and lazy thrust.
“Fuuuuu-ck,” she said as my 9-inch dick penetrated her. My dick coated in Lust chakra, her lower muscles writhed around my dick. Two Watanabe hearts imprinted on my ball sac, one was over each ball showing that I had the second stage of the Chikyugi. Though Hancock and I had tried to awaken the third stage with a giant orgy, we had so far been unsuccessful. But when I became strong enough, I was sure it could happen.
“You feel so good,” I grumbled into her neck as my body pressed into her. Fully buried in her, she began to pant as I built the chakra up.
“You uh-fuck. Go-go easy shiiit,” she gasped and came on my dick. Liquid gushing around my shaft, her eyes fluttered as her chest pushed up into me. Moaning loudly, she stared up at me as she gasped.
“Your skills are cheating,” she said. “Why can I not get a sex skill?”
“No idea,” I said as I pulled out and shoved back in. We had been to all of the Smut rooms, but she still hadn’t gotten one. She gasped but opened her legs wider to allow me further inside of her. “You feel good enough as it is.” Only worrying about my own pleasure, I still allowed a trickle of chakra around my dick, causing her to moan and continue to gush liquid.
“Cum in me,” she whispered, her tongue sticking out as she held her tits closer together. The valley of cleavage calling me, I shoved my face in and humped harder. We became a groaning mess until I sped up and timed it so we came together. My own cum filling her up as hers coated my dick, we held one another in our post-coitus. But as our addition stirred slightly, we pulled away to stare at her.
“Good morning, Cha-Cha,” Hancock said with a wide smile. Hae-In squeaked as we stared at her. The blonde, covering herself up with the blanket, she radiated shame and more than a little lust.
“I think she wants another turn,” I said as I exited Hancock. She grunted as I did but was rolling to Hae-In. Grabbing hold of her once best friend and now potential lover.
“Is that true, Cha-Cha?” Hancock asked. It was her own special name for the other Hunter, since they had been friends for some time before Hancock and I came to this world. Hancock’s hands holding the blonde’s wrists as their breasts pushed against one another, they were closer as friends now than ever before. “Do you want my husband? You were so timid last night. Even after all the effort I’ve put into seducing you. You want my man?”
“I-“ Hae-In said in shame.
“Good,” Hancock cut in. “I want him to have you. Like I said last night, now we can take our relationship to the next level.”
“To what?” Hae-In squeaked. Her mouth dry, her Haki said she knew the answer.
“You know,” Hancock teased. Moaning as she writhed atop Hae-In. “If you have no interest in me sexually. Then at least join us. I believe you and I can become the best of sister-wives. We already spend every day together. Stay with Weston and me, and we could spend every night together as well.”
The duo had been in the same guild for years before Hancock and I came to this world. Enjoying being single, where every man wanted them, it had been rather hard on Hae-In when I came to the world, and Hancock began spending time with me instead. But over time we had hinted and invited until she finally accepted after I saved her life the night before.
As Hae-In mentally debated on what was going on, Hancock kissed her. I rolled my eyes. I had seen her do it quite a few times by that point in many worlds. It was her move. A little shock and awe with a makeout session was how she had seduced girl after girl.
After all this time, I was fairly certain every girl was at least curious about a little girl-on-girl action. Especially with the most beautiful woman in every world she traveled to, Hancock. Each woman could be as straight as uncooked spaghetti, but put them around someone hot enough, and they will become wet enough, and with time they start becoming a little limber.
Which proved true as Hae-In moved into the kiss. Then she remembered who she was kissing and pulled back. “Hancock, I-“
“Ugh,” Hancock said as she sat up. Her perfect tits bouncing with the movement. “Why can’t women just kiss one another without freaking each other out? I love you, Cha-Cha. You know that. Kissing is just how I show it.” This was her classic technique. Make the kiss seem harmless, then next time push for a little more, then more, and before the poor girls knew it, they were having her go down on them. Which I knew most people didn’t like, but I was weird, I found it pretty hot.
“Usually you’re wearing clothes though,” Hae-In said. Her eyes locked on Hancock’s chest as well.
“True,” Hancock said, giving me the side eye. “So, did you have fun last night?” She walked over on her knees toward me, acting like it was the most natural thing.
“I don’t…remember much,” Hae-In said, her eyes locked on my very erect dick for a split second. “Where are we, anyway?” Looking around the room, we were of course in the master bedroom of my Capsule House from DBZ. All of Hancock's and my stuff stored inside, we had been able to take it everywhere. Storing all the little knickknacks we had squirreled away from other worlds.
“Jeju Island,” I said, getting off the bed. Not bothering to put clothes on, I looked out the small window to see the work crews leveling the area outside.
“Jeju?!” She yelled, sitting up quickly. “The one with the-“
“We cleared the S-grade dungeon and all the monsters here a few weeks ago,” Hancock said boredly as she lay back down.
“What?!” Hae-In yelled, even more concerned. “How have I not heard this? The island was uninhabitable for years.”
Jeju was an island to the south of South Korea. One of the strongest dungeons ever had burst out there. The monsters from it killed everyone on the island years ago. On my quest for levels, I had cleared it all out. Saving plenty of drama with the Korean and Japanese guilds, and giving me loads of Magic Core rights to one of the strongest dungeons ever.
“Well, you know Weston’s new job,” Hancock said. “Being the new commissioner of the Hunter’s Association has many perks.”
“That’s supposed to be confidential,” I said.
“Oh come on, it’s Cha-Cha,” Hancock said. I turned, studying the still naked blonde. She jerked awake, caught staring at me again. I thought it over and decided to share.
“Yeah, as the new commissioner for Korea’s hunters. I made a deal that as long as I cleared Jeju Island, it became mine.” Rather close to Japan and Korea, it was a perfect location to start my new country up. Though small, there was a lot of potential still.
“So there are no more monsters?” Hae-In asked.
“As long as you don’t count the ugly foreman,” Hancock said.
“That guy isn’t so bad,” I said. We currently had a couple hundred construction workers clearing roads and destroying the giant bug nest the previous monsters had made. I had a massive castle and city planned for the island, but they would be years in the making.
I had plenty of money thanks to my willingness to jump into any dungeon around the world. Stealing the best from quite a few other hunters that had been making names for themselves as of late. Though I wasn’t known as the top Hunter because I had only been around for a few months, I was currently listed as one of the strongest.
With that thought, my phone began ringing. Rolling my eyes, I walked over to it. Grumbling under my breath, I put a smile in my voice as I said, “Chairman Gunhee.”
“Weston, get your ass here. There is a stink being thrown my way about that dungeon you cleared in Brazil,” the old gruff man said. He was the official leader of the Korean Hunter’s Association. The group that managed all the Hunters in Korea. I was the Commissioner, which was technically just below him, then when he retired in a few weeks, I would take his spot. He and I had become friends in the last couple of months. In fact, he was the one that talked me into taking the government position.
“What?” I asked, letting out a tired sigh. “How did they know it was me?”
“So it was you?!” He yelled. “Fucking hell, Weston. There are procedures for these sorts of things.”
“I know, I know, it was an A-Class though, they would have taken forever to clear it” I said. “Give me…an hour,” I said as I looked at the two naked women on the bed. I hung up before he could respond. My eyes on Hancock, she smirked and rolled over to face Hae-In.
“So…shall we go again?” I asked Hae.
“Again?” She asked, scooting back on the bed as she squeezed her legs together. “I thought this was just the once.”
“Oh no,” Hancock said, practically slithering over to her. “You’ve seen the hell he puts me through every night. I can’t do it alone anymore, Cha-Cha. I need your help.” Hae-In’s face became beet red as she replayed the events of the night before. I really hadn’t gone easy on either of them.
“This isn’t right,” she mumbled.
“It’s fine, I want it,” Hancock said, turning to face me. She licked her lips and gave me a wink.
“You can leave whenever you want,” I told the new girl. “But we would both like you here.” Her eyes got big, locking onto me, then my perfectly chiseled chest, then my dick. The bulge in her eyes said enough, and I descended upon her. The Lust Aura around us, doing it’s job, she was drenched as I entered her.
Hissing slightly from the pain her newly busted hymen was still rather sore, but she was an S-Rank Hunter, she would be fine. Grabbing her legs, I moved them closer to her head as I shoved all the way into her cunt. Lust chakra touching everywhere I could reach, she began to moan in pleasure as Hancock and I kissed overtop her.
“Fuck her hard today,” Hancock moaned, putting her hand behind my head as our foreheads touched. “I don’t want us to be able to walk.”
I nodded, getting more into it as my thrusts became stronger. Making her cum uncontrollably Hae-In screamed as loud smacking sounds resounded in the room. Our sexes colliding hard, she began to hold her own legs over her head as she yelled my name. Liquid gushing out of her, my hand squeezed one of Hancock’s breasts. Pushing chakra into her, the room filled with their moans as the notification came.
