The last chapter ended on a pretty unexpected note because Scalpil’s efforts to turn Jaeik into a devil using Young-tae failed miserably. First of all, it was because the Angel decided to intervene, and secondly, it was Jaeik’s own will. He did not want to be in possession of overflowing power, which he couldn’t control.
It was pretty shocking to see Jaeik fight back against his own transformation solely through his own willpower. It would mean that Jaeik will be targeted by more malicious and powerful forces in the upcoming chapters. We will see if Satan will come out to force Jaeik into becoming a devil in Hybrid Chapter 8.
The entire series is based on the struggle between the angel and the demons to get the mighty hybrid Jaeik on their side. Of course, Jaeik is very strong to begin with, but the odds would tip in favor of the side he chooses to awaken. Sadly, Jaeik seems to have no intention of doing that because his ultimate goal is to live a normal life.
Becoming a mighty angel or demon or choosing sides in a never-ending struggle is not really on our MC’s list. It is his conviction that makes the series interesting because nothing makes him waver. In the end, Jaeik wants to be normal and doesn’t want to get swept away with fights that don’t concern him.
Hybrid is a supernatural action fantasy manhwa where angels and demons exist, and hybrids are the children born to an angel and demon. Our MC is a great hybrid, which means that he is extremely powerful. It all starts when Angels and Demons begin a war to turn the MC into one of them and become stronger.
The MC is just an average high school boy who has no interest in this business with angels and demons and just wants to live a mundane life no matter what. In today’s article, we will discuss the release date of Hybrid Chapter 8, recap what happened in the series previously, and tell our readers where they can read the manhwa.
Recap
In the previous chapter of Hybrid, Scalpil decides he will use Yountae to stimulate Jaeik’s negative emotions and turn him into a devil by awakening him. His plans almost work out when the angel intervenes and tries to disrupt him. She fights Scalpil to stop him from instigating the transformation and battles against Jaeik.
She was hoping that Jaeik would wake up and come to his senses, but nothing seemed to be working. He was turning into a devil more and more because his negative emotions had completely taken over his mind. Youngtae was just kicked to the side in this struggle.
Jaeik’s power got out of control, and even the angel’s grand shield couldn’t stop his attacks. The angel decides to hit him with attacks of her own and uses another technique to calm him down by taking away his negative emotions. Of course, Scalpil was not going to sit by and watch his plan fail, so he made his move, too.
He uses his own technique to amplify his negative emotions and nullify the angel’s attempts, and it is pretty worrisome because it looks like it has been working for a while. Scalpil was hoping that Jaeik would just go through with the transformation when something odd happened.
Jaeik, who was in a crazed state, could barely handle the power, which made him realize that he didn’t need or want this power in the first place. He decided he could just dissipate the power if he wished to do so, and he actually did it. After all, he just wants to live a normal life, so that kind of power is useless for him.
After regaining control, he reverses the transformation and lends a hand to the beaten-down Youngtae. Both Scalpil and the angel watching it happen were stunned because not only did Jaeik dissipate the awakening, but he did not even raise his head to acknowledge the two of them.
