### Summary
Continuing his one-man assault on the S-Rank giants devastating Japan, Sung Jinwoo confronts the colossal gatekeeper. The battle showcases his overwhelming power and strategic command, culminating in a gruesome but effective tactic where he creates an opening for his fan-favorite shadow soldier, Beru, to burrow into the giant's eye and destroy it from within. This brutal display highlights the fierce loyalty of his shadow army, with readers celebrating the dramatic flair of Beru and the stoic presence of the ever-loyal knight Igris. However, the victory is immediately undercut by a suspenseful twist: the System notification declares only that an "enemy" has been defeated, not the dungeon's "boss." This confirms the giant was merely a gatekeeper, a fact Jinwoo seems to have anticipated. For the first time, Jinwoo shows a flicker of fear at the true power lurking within the gate, setting a terrifying stage for the next confrontation as his aura shifts from blue to a more ominous purple, signifying his deepening connection to his monarch powers.
