Solo Leveling timeline?

The Solo Leveling timeline spans several key phases that chronicle Sung Jin-Woo's incredible transformation from the weakest hunter to humanity's ultimate protector.

Pre-Awakening Era

The story begins in a world where mysterious gates appeared 10 years prior, bringing dangerous dungeons filled with monsters. During this period, humanity discovered individuals called "Hunters" who possessed supernatural abilities to combat these threats.

Jin-Woo's Initial Hunter Career

Sung Jin-Woo starts as an E-rank hunter, earning the nickname "World's Weakest Hunter." For several years, he struggles in low-level dungeons, barely surviving while supporting his hospitalized mother and younger sister through meager earnings.

The Double Dungeon Incident

The timeline's pivotal moment occurs when Jin-Woo enters a deceptive D-rank dungeon that turns out to be much deadlier. After nearly dying in this "Double Dungeon," he awakens with a unique ability called the "System" - a game-like interface that allows him to level up infinitely.

The Leveling Phase

Over the following months, Jin-Woo rapidly ascends through hunter ranks by completing daily quests and defeating increasingly powerful enemies. Key milestones include obtaining the Shadow Monarch's powers, clearing high-rank dungeons solo, and building his shadow army.
