Only I Level Up By Shoveling-Chapter 70: "Is He...Reborn?’

"NOOOOOO— "

Ray cried out until he tasted blood in his throat.

His eyes reddened and his entire body trembled from head to toe, yet...

Miria’s limp body still flew like an arc and landed straight onto the toilet spirit’s "mouth".

Splash.

Miria’s body was sucked into the toilet spirit’s mouth and the last thing Ray saw...

Was her face.

She was looking at Ray with a smile on her face.

Tears slid down her cheeks as she mouthed.

Thank...you...

Master.

"MIRIAAAA— "

Ray felt his heart torn to pieces and his head was pounded like a mash potato.

Everything around him became blurry and a loud tinnitus rang in his ears.

"Arghhh!!"

Ray clutched his head as he rolled on the ground.

Is this the backlash from losing a natal spirit?

Right, he would die or become disabled if he’s lucky.

It’s over.

Just when Ray’s breath became faint, a strange memory rushed into his head and his heart started to beat hard, so fast that all he could hear was the sound of his heart.

BA-THUMP!

BA-THUMP!

BA-THUMP!

Each beat poured a string of photos and videos, as if life was compressed into a 5-minute movie.

But the strange thing was that...Ray "saw" many, many things he had never experienced before.

What...is this?

His head spun around and his chest was burning.

The heat slowly spread from his heart to his entire body.

Once the heat enveloped his entire body, a huge "hammer" hit his brain and the world in his mind shook for a split second.

BANG!

Lady Fera subconsciously lifted her head and looked at Ray with wide eyes.

Huh?

What was that?

Just now, time and space...

An invisible chain of time and a ripple of space surrounded Ray’s body before disappearing without a trace.

Ray’s eyes lost their light but the next second...

Flash!

The young boy opened his eyes with a start and he gasped out loud.

"Huh!"

W-where...is this?

Isn’t he dead?

Someone in the academy tricked him and sacrificed him to the evil cult—

Wait, he’s supposed to be on an altar.

Why is he...inside a cave?

Ray’s head throbbed as he looked around, still laying on the ground.

What the hell is going on?

The boy gritted his teeth as he blinked a few times before his eyesight recovered.

What appeared in front of his eyes was a very, very familiar place.

Ba-thump.

Ray’s heart stopped beating for a second.

...what?

No...way!

He would never forget this place.

The place where his nightmare started.

The place where he lost everything, including his future.

How could he be here?

Is this a similar cave...

Ray’s eyes captured the sight of Miria’s weak smile as her body slowly entered the toilet spirit’s "mouth".

In that instant, his face changed.

Miria?!

No, that scene—

Ray gasped for breath as an unbelievable guess came into his mind.

He...is he back?

Back to the time where he lost Miria...

He’s reborn!

Then—

Miria!

She’s dying.

Again, just like before.

The monster wasn’t exactly like before, but Miria is still dying.

Ray tried to move his body but his broken bones sent a wave of pain into his brain.

"Ugh!" Ray groaned and his eyes darkened.

Back then, his body wasn’t injured to this extent...

What changed?

No, no matter what, he had to save Miria!

A magic circle glowed next to him and a sword slowly came out of the magic circle.

[Sword of Vengeance]

Rank: C

Ah.

It was a weapon-type spirit.

But he had never summoned such a high-level sword before.

Before Ray could grab the dark crimson sword, Castra’s voice cut through the air.

"Dear summoner! Are you okay— "

Huh?

Ray looked at Castra and saw a pop-up panel above his head.

[Poop Shoveling Officer]

Then, the spirit’s stats and skills were revealed.

Including...the hidden skills.

[Garfin’s Nyan Nyan Punch]

[Sh*t Luck]

[Lady Fera’s Freezing Angelic Smile] NEW!

Ray felt that everything was familiar but unfamiliar at the same time.

What the...

What’s with that spirit’s crazy hidden skills?!

And how did he even know the spirit’s hidden skills?

Wait, back then, his summon spirit wasn’t this [Poop Shoveling Officer] and the [Sword of Revenge]!

Something is wrong.

Ray felt like falling into a deep sea full of mystery, but the commotion around the toilet spirit snapped him out of his confusion.

"Huh?"

"Oink?"

The female beastman and the orc knight exclaimed at the same time.

The toilet spirit also exclaimed with a glurgle.

Why?

Because...

Miria, who was clearly sucked into the toilet spirit, suddenly appeared again and she...climbed out of the toilet spirit tenaciously.

!!

What the hell!!

The toilet spirit was sure that this spirit was already dead and was about to disappear, becoming his nutrients.

But what did he see?

The spirit suddenly opened her eyes and screamed.

"Ah! What the hell! Where is this— "

The voice was exactly the same, but somehow, the toilet spirit felt that...

This spirit was no longer the same.

The toilet spirit sensed a ripple in the void.

Lady Fera also felt the slight change in space and time, but it was so faint that she didn’t notice Miria, only keeping an eye on Ray.

The toilet spirit was shocked, but it immediately tried to devour the spirit who was resurrected from the dead—

Only to find out something horrible.

Huh? How come his power...didn’t work?

He’s indeed an illusion-type spirit, but he could devour such a weak D-rank spirit who was injured with just a slurp...

Or so he thought.

The D-rank spirit suddenly changed.

A mysterious power protected her whole body and somehow...he couldn’t touch her!

The toilet spirit shook, and the "resurrected spirit" grumbled in shock.

"What the hell! What the hell! Why am I inside a toilet— did I transmigrate? Damn! This body— "

The spirit touched her own boobs and screamed like a chicken.

"AHHHH!! There are mountains— wait, this is a girl’s body?"

The spirit was dizzy and almost slid back into the toilet spirit’s stomach.

What the hell!!

"I became a girl?!"

The spirit didn’t want to check down there at all and just blinked in confusion.

Someone, tell him...what’s going on??

Castra also looked at the system’s sudden pop-up panels and screamed.

Yes, what’s going on?!
