The anime covered the first 45 chapters of the popular manhwa and the second season is ready to take up the story from the 46th chapter, which marks the beginning of the Red Gate arc. If the second season also covers a similar number of chapters as the first one, then we will probably see the Return to the Demon Castle arc which ends in chapter 89 of the manhwa. Based on that, here are some of the most important characters that will probably make their first appearance in the second season of Solo Leveling. 


Baruka 

Baruka is the main antagonist of the Red Gate arc who will appear at the beginning of the second season. He is the leader of the Ice Elves and a very strong and sadistic opponent for Jinwoo.

Iron

You have already met the A-ranked, arrogant hunter Kim Chul in the first season. However, in the Red Gate arc, he would go insane after seeing his guild all get killed and attack Jinwoo. After being killed by Igris, he would transform into a shadow humanoid named Iron and join Jinwoo’s shadow army. He plays a significant role in future battles alongside the other shadow soldiers, and thus, one of the most important appearances of season 2.
