### Summary
The highly anticipated attempt to resurrect the legendary dragon Kamish ends in bittersweet failure. While Sung Jinwoo successfully summons the dragon's shadow, its form is unstable due to the eight years since its death, and it ultimately dissipates. Readers were captivated by the brief appearance of the loyal, tail-wagging dragon, expressing widespread disappointment that it could not permanently join the shadow army. This failure leaves Jinwoo intensely frustrated, a mood that is immediately compounded by a reckless act of vengeance. Ignoring direct warnings from his own guild master, Thomas Andre, the S-Rank hunter Hwang Dong-Soo makes his move against Jinwoo. Seeking retribution for his brother's death, Hwang foolishly targets Jinwoo's closest friend and ally, Yoo Jin-Ho, abducting him to force a confrontation. This act of provocation, aimed at a hunter now recognized as a global power, is seen by readers as a suicidal miscalculation. The chapter concludes on a tense cliffhanger, with a furious Jinwoo, already angered by the loss of a powerful potential shadow, now set to unleash his full wrath upon Hwang Dong-Soo for harming his friend.
