Solo Leveling: The Last Primal Hunter
Chapter 6: The System’s Revelation
Jasmine’s body trembled. The temple walls cracked and groaned under the sheer pressure of the force outside. Whatever was coming… it was beyond anything she had ever faced.
But before she could act, a sudden wave of clarity washed over her.
Her system, once hesitant and confused, now roared to life.
[ALERT: SYSTEM ERROR RESOLVED.]
[Processing…]
[Knowledge Unlocked: First Primal Archives.]
[Threat Identification System Activated.]
[Ancient Vault Override – Accessing Lost Data…]
Jasmine’s breath hitched. “Wait… what?”
A massive surge of information flooded into her mind.
For the first time, her system knew everything.
About the First Era.
About the war that shattered the balance.
About her own existence.
A notification blinked before her eyes.
[Designation: The Last Primal Hunter Confirmed.]
Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.
[Authority Level: Primal Warden Assigned.]
[Unlocking Complete System Potential…]
She staggered, gripping her head as the knowledge poured in.
Her system had always been advanced, unlike normal Hunter interfaces. But now… it wasn’t just an interface.
It was something alive.
A voice—deep, calm, and unwavering—spoke within her mind.
[“Welcome, Primal Warden. Your true path begins now.”]
Jasmine’s fingers clenched into fists. “Explain. Everything.”
The system obeyed.
[Loading Data...]
[The Primal War was not just a conflict.]
[It was the end of an Age.]
[Beasts, Hunters, and Gods once ruled in harmony.]
[Until the Divide.]
Jasmine gritted her teeth. She had already heard this from the Primal Sovereign. But now, her system was revealing the missing pieces.
[The Divide was not natural. It was orchestrated.]
Her heart pounded.
[An unknown force—one beyond even the Primals—interfered with the balance of the world.]
[They whispered into the minds of mortals and gods alike.]
[Turning them against one another.]
[Turning them against the Primals.]
Jasmine’s eyes widened. “Who?”
The system hesitated.
[Data Corrupted.]
[Identifying Source…]
[ERROR: Unknown Entity Detected.]
Her gut twisted. Something out there didn’t want this knowledge to be uncovered.
And yet, her system had broken through anyway.
She exhaled sharply. “So what does this have to do with me?”
[Your awakening was not random.]
[You carry the bloodline of the First Primal.]
[Your soul is bound to the Ancient Order.]
[Your very existence is a threat to those who seek to keep the past buried.]
Jasmine’s fists tightened. “Meaning?”
The system’s response sent chills down her spine.
[Meaning… that the war is not over.]
[And they will come for you.]
A deafening boom shook the temple, snapping Jasmine back to reality.
The doors… were breaking.
And something massive was clawing its way through.

The First Trial
The Primal Sovereign’s golden eyes glowed with anticipation.
“You’re beginning to understand.”
Jasmine gritted her teeth. She had no time to process everything—her system had just given her a lifetime’s worth of forbidden knowledge, and now she was about to be thrown into a fight she wasn’t prepared for.
The massive doors of the temple cracked. Through the gaps, she could see it.
A beast unlike any she had ever seen.
It was colossal—easily the size of a building, its body made of shifting shadows and glowing runes. Its head was wolf-like, but its eyes… its eyes held intelligence.
[IDENTIFIED: VOID HOWLER – FIRST ERA SENTINEL]
[Threat Level: Catastrophic]
Jasmine’s breath hitched.
Even for an S-Rank Hunter, this was—
[New Directive: Survive.]
Her system wasn’t giving her a choice.
She stepped forward, summoning her magic.
Golden energy erupted around her.
The Primordial Sentinels behind her materialized fully, their beastly forms glowing with ethereal energy.
The Primal Sovereign merely watched.
“This is your first trial, Primal Warden.”
Jasmine didn’t hesitate.
The Void Howler lunged.
She raised her sword—
And the battle began.
