This is a strong draft 👏 — you've
Scene 1 – Introduction to the mission
Ting.
"Yes, it's Jinyoung."
"What is it?"
"Do you want to join us in a raid?"
"I will. What rank is the dungeon?"
"It's an A‑Rank Orc Dungeon."
"Ok, I'll be there soon."

Scene 2 – New Weapon
Jinyoung opened the system.
Ting.
"Let's see what weapon I should buy… ah ha! Demon King's Dagger, item S‑Rank."
He checked his stats:
- Strength: 89
- Speed: 89
- Durability/Endurance: 89
- IQ/BIQ: 90
"My stats have increased. I should be almost S‑Rank, if not S‑Rank already."

Scene 3 – Dungeon Entry
Jinyoung entered alongside some hunters: mainly an A‑Rank fighter, a B‑Rank healer/mage, and an A‑Rank tank from the Beast Guild — one of Korea's strongest guilds, led by their S‑Rank headmaster Baek Kong, an S‑Rank fighter who can transform into a beast.
"Ah, welcome Mr. Jinyoung. So what rank are you currently?"
"I'm a D‑Rank."
"It seems you won't be suited for battle, as you could harm yourself. So you just help collect the beast's rune."
"It's fine by me."
"Ok, let's enter."

Scene 4 – Orcs Appear
Grah! A devastating roar echoed through the dungeon, terrifying the hunters. It was not one roar — it was multiple.
"Captain, what should we do?"
"Deploy the attack formation. I attack at close range, the mage/healer will attack from above, whilst the tank will absorb the attack from the orcs and strike back."
---
Scene 5 – Orc Battle
The orcs attacked in a swarm. Their physical strength was overwhelming, and their bodies were not easy to pierce. They swung massive swords at the hunters, but the tank came in to block the attack — only to be sent flying into a building, knocked out.
"Liam, are you OK?" said Jin‑ah, the mage.
"What the hell happened? We couldn't react to their attack, and there's still more of them!"
"Jin‑ah, can you use your mana to try to translate what the orcs are saying? Since they're attacking at the same time, maybe then we can stand a chance."
Jin‑ah chanted a spell called Beast Translation, helping her and her allies understand beast language.
"They're not attacking… they're offering us to go into their chamber to see their leader."
"We should leave the dungeon," said the captain.
"No, we can't," replied Jin‑ah, healing Liam's injury. "The dungeon has been blocked by an unknown source. It means we are trapped."
"Fine, let's go. We don't have any choice anyway."
The group entered the chamber where the rest of the orcs waited.

Scene 6 – Chamber Battle
"So many of them… I don't think we stand a chance," said Jin‑ah.
Meanwhile, Jinyoung bought a potion and a healing skill. He gripped the Demon King's Dagger in his hands.
"They won't survive at this rate. I only planned to watch how high‑ranking hunters deal with monsters… but I'll help."
He dashed across the chamber, cutting through hordes of orcs.
"It should activate now."
Ting.
[Resurrection Skill: Stage One Activated.]
Great. He issued a command, and undead soldiers came forth from his shadows. They were his slain enemies whose souls had been claimed: orcs, ogres, fishmen, ice elves, and the ice bear boss — including Liam and Baruka — all resurrected as his army, their physical forms amped by his mana.
"Let's go!"
Swoosh. Liam, Baruka, the ice bear boss (muscle), and the other soldiers rushed at the orcs, slaying them and claiming their souls. They killed enemies, sacrificed themselves, and were immediately resurrected again by Jinyoung's mana. It was brutal — blood spraying everywhere. The hunters could only see an afterimage.
Then a growl echoed from the corner. Emerging was Kargalgan, the A‑Rank Orc Boss Mage.
Abilities:
- Gravitational Magic: manipulate gravity to levitate targets or slam them down.
- Barrier Magic: massive energy shield that withstands A‑Rank mage attacks.
- Telepathy/Possession: take over soldiers to communicate or observe.
- Fear Inducement: cast illusions to terrify opponents.
- Hymn of Blazing Fire: waves of fireballs.
- Hymn of Blindness: strips target of sight.
Kargalgan attacked simultaneously with his spells, but Jinyoung countered effectively. When Kargalgan tried to strip Jinyoung of his sight, Jinyoung used Fear Domain — a shadowy domain that paralysed his opponent with fear.
Immediately, he used the Demon King's Dagger to sever Kargalgan's hand, leaving his resurrected soldiers to finish him.
Ting.
[Level Up.]

Scene 7 – Aftermath of Battle
Jinyoung returned to his position. The hunters thanked him for saving their lives and even shared half of their profit with him before leaving.
---
Scene 8 – Reward
System Prompt:
[Reward Acquired: Shadow Swap & Ruler's Authority (Telekinesis, Stage One).]
Darkness rippled across the chamber. Jinyoung felt his shadow link to his soldiers.
- Shadow Swap: Instantly swap positions with any undead soldier within aura range. Each swap leaves behind a shadow afterimage that confuses enemies.
- Ruler's Authority (Stage One): Telekinesis that allows him to manipulate weapons, corpses, or enemies within his domain and lift or slam them.
Jinyoung tested it — in an instant, he switched places with Baruka, appearing behind an orc mage while Baruka took his former position. The enemy was cut down before it could react.
"This… changes everything," Jinyoung muttered. His army was no longer just a brute force undead army — there were a real army useful for tactics purposes

Scene 9 – Back in Seoul
He entered his room, hearing his sister's sleeping voice before drifting into sleep himself.
