Only I Level Up By Shoveling-Chapter 43: "Summoning Chance— Gone!"

Before Castra could ask about the mark, the samoyed spirit lifted her paw and pointed at a few officers who had turned into a pile of snow.

They were the weakest among their peers and they died cleanly, without any struggles.

The remaining officers were frozen stiff, trembling from head to toe.

Their teeth were chattering so hard that they almost crushed their teeth!

Seeing this scene that he didn’t have any memories of, Castra shuddered and immediately prostrated on the ground, bowing at the samoyed spirit.

To hell with the mark!

"Thank you for your life-saving grace, milady! This lowly one owes his life— achoo!"

Garfin heard Castra’s oath and immediately flew into the sky with his tail exploding like cotton candy.

"Meowwww! What are you saying?! It’s this king who asked this stinky dog to save you!"

"Ah, yes, your majesty, I’m forever indebted to you..."

Castra wiped his non-existent tears and was about to continue to bluff when a piece of shit suddenly bolted towards his face.

BANG!

"AHHH— "

[Wahhhh! Wahhh! Hostttt! You’re alive! I-I thought you’re going to die! The system- the system said that you’re beyond saving! ｡⁠:ﾟ⁠(⁠;⁠´⁠∩⁠`⁠;⁠)ﾟ⁠:⁠｡]

Poo cried so much that a waterfall poured out of the golden dialog panel above his head.

Even Dudu stuck close to Castra’s chest and shed bitter tears.

"Du! Duuuu!"

Dudu was about to die with its owner! 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Dudu was still young! Dudu didn’t want to die!

Castra didn’t know whether Dudu was genuinely worried about him or worried about dying with him.

Anyway, he stroked Dudu’s shell and the dung beetle farted out of relief.

Poo also farted the next second, letting out all the worries in his heart.

That was close!

If his host dies, Poo would be unemployed!

What a nightmare!

[Host...this is my fault! I should have hacked the Spirit World’s administration thoroughly and got rid of your "potential criminal" status in advance! (⁠｡⁠ŏ⁠﹏⁠ŏ⁠) ]

Uh...why is this customer service turning into a hacker?

"Duuu! Duuu!"

Dudu couldn’t help, but at least Dudu could beg his master to let go of Dudu so that Dudu didn’t die together!

Castra pretended not to hear the meaning of Dudu’s alien language and just stared at the two fluffy animals rolling in the snow.

"Meowww! I’m the one who saves the hooman!"

"Woooof! No, it’s me! Me!"

"Wait, meowww! Why did this king’s slave has your mark?? Did you just steal this king’s slave??"

"Woof! That’s the only way to save him, woof! Who told you to be in a weak form?"

"Meowh! What did you say?! Weak???"

"Fufufu~ Yes, you weak a*s cat!"

The huge existence above everyone’s head just stared at the two small animals with gentle eyes, as if she was not the one rolling on the snow in a small form.

To be honest, Castra wanted to clap his hands and cheer,

Fight! ☆ Fight! ☆ Jab! Punch! Kick! Yeahhh (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)—

But when two animals were fighting even fiercer until snow flew everywhere, afraid that a spirit would die, Castra hurriedly mediated.

"That, thank you both of you for destroying the chain and saving my life— achooo!"

"B-but I’m still a potential criminal...won’t there be other officers coming to chase after me, achoo!"

And his summoning chance!! He will die if he can’t go to work!! Not that he wants to go, ugh.

The samoyed spirit who had just marked her first humanoid spirit servant that she stole from the crazy cat immediately let out a mournful cry.

"Awoooo! I forgot! Wait, I’ll tell the beast lord to erase your unreasonable status!"

The samoyed spirit suddenly disappeared like the wind and the huge being above slowly moved its head, as if communicating with someone across the plane.

Seeing the dog’s action, Garfin didn’t want to lose to her.

"Meow, meow. This king will also contact the beast lord! The Fire Lord has abused his power, meow!!"

Garfin disappeared as fast as the wind, leaving Castra alone with a poop and a dung beetle.

Castra looked at Poo and Dudu with blank eyes.

So...he’s all alone now?

Wait, thinking again, he’s also a humanoid spirit. Why are these beast spirits who are rumored to hate humanoid spirits so good to him?

Is it...the five-star animal-only charm?

Amidst confusion, the three pitiful beings sat in the snow with a group of officer survivors huddling together like a drowned chicken, waiting for the two great beings to return.

A few moments later...

The Spirit world’s notification sounded.

BEEP. [Your "Potential Criminal" Status has been temporarily removed!]

[It is detected that a spirit lord is abusing their power.]

[For this incident, the Spirit World sincerely apologized to the victim and will give a worthy compensation.]

? What? A compensation?

Since when did the stingy Spirit World’s administrator be so generous—

BEEP. [You have received...a sincere apology ^^]

Fck you and your apology.

As if it heard Castra’s curse, th spirit administrator sent a new system panel.

BEEP. [Due to reports from two spirits and some officers’ insistence, you have been put under the administrator’s watchful eyes.]

[Shall you be found to be a transmigrator just like what the others reported, you will be put under arrest, IMMEDIATELY.]

In that instant, an invisible chain quietly bound Castra and sank into his body.

Once there was a command, it would appear and capture Castra in a heartbeat.

Castra’s smile froze on his face and he instantly broke into a cold sweat.

Ahhh! He’s under the administrator’s close watch??

Isn’t that worse than being chased by the officers?!

Those officers and spirits who reported him—

What kind of grudge do they have with him?!

The spirit world’s administrator didn’t care about Castra’s inner struggle and continued to send notifications.

BEEP. [The previous summoning has been cancelled due to the long summoning delay!]

Then came the poop system’s notification right off the bat.

DUNG! [You have used your summoning chance! The system isn’t responsible for any errors in the process.]

...??

Castra’s heart dropped to his heart and his world spun around.

WHAT?? His summoning chance— is gone??
