Chapter 24
I’m shrouded in yet more darkness. I could probably call it an old friend at this point.
Whooo… I’m ready Advice. Punch it.
That’s weird. I thought you said this would work?
I never heard anything about this!
I’m getting that hot feeling from before again. The magic must be going out of control. I have no choice, upgrade!
Yes, hurry up.
What now?!
Something violently shakes me. It then happens three more times. What in the world is going on? I can feel magic rapidly leaving my body.
…Huh? What a weird time to level up. Can’t you see I’m a bit busy here?
Like I said, busy!
An earsplitting headache suddenly attacked me! Like someone grabbing your head and trying to pry it open!
Argggh!!! It hurts like hell!
Wait, who the hell are you?!
That’s what I want to know!
YES!!!
YES!!!
And with that I blacked out. The headache disappeared and I felt really at ease.
“Yo, it’s been a while.”
I look back to see that freaky creature I met in the beginning. The one who told me to reincarnate.
“Don’t tell me… I died, didn’t I?”
The creature was in his usual carefree pose of lying on his side. Is it laziness or arrogance I wonder?
“Nah, you’re fine. Right now you’re in the middle of evolving. I just thought I’d check up on you and see how you were doing.”
“Well, that is surprisingly nice of you.”
“You say it like I’m normally an asshole…”
It’s your own fault for the half-baked explanation in the beginning.
“I may have a slightly bad impression of you.”
“That so. Anyway, it seems you caught the attention of my buddy, the Death God.”
Oh yeah that title…
“It was pure coincidence.”
“He’s been keeping an eye on you, you know? Says the shit you get into is hilarious. It’s even starting to affect his work…”
“Isn’t that just slacking off?”
“It’s fine if nobody notices.”
Words fail to describe what I’m currently feeling right now.
“It’s good to see you are doing fine. I’ll send you back. Keep up the good work of not dying.”
I felt a hazy sensation and the creature disappeared.
Oh, Advice. Seriously, what happened?
We are still alive right? Then it’s all good. What about the body? Did it work?
What a relief.
Strangely I felt really tired. Mental exhaustion maybe?
Whatever it is, I need a nap. I’ll figure out this body later.
