Transmigrated as a Ghost

1018  Chapter 1018 Soul Repair

Marcus suddenly found himself floating in an alternate dimension while he was in the middle of conversing with the Administrator. He had wanted to say a couple more things, but she had cut their conversation earlier and sent him away before he could say anything else.

'I suppose that I will just need to talk to her afterwards. Hm, this place looks familiar.' Marcus thought glancing around the shimmering endless white space.

However, a terrifying premonition came over him once he realized where he was. And unfortunately, it did not take long for his fears to be realized.

From all around him dozens of small glowing spiders began coming towards him from every direction. Each of the spiders was descending from a single strand of webbing no matter which direction they came from. Making it look like several of them flying from Marcus' point of view. It appeared that directions like up and down did not exist in this realm. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update

'Why did it have to be fucking spiders?! Couldn't it have been silkworms, or literally anything else!' Marcus internally screamed as the spiders descended upon him.

Soon the first of the Soul Weaving Spiders landed on Marcus. Instinctively he tried to shake it off, but he was completely immobile and could barely move his eyes around. Despite now having the power to turn cities into rubble, the phobia he had had since he was young and still living on Earth stuck with him into his second life. No matter how strong he became or what changes he underwent, Marcus could not get rid of her fear of spiders.

Whenever he felt the spiders' spindly legs crawling on his soul, Marcus could not help but shudder and wish he was anywhere else. In fact, he thought that he would rather have to relive every one of his toughest fights than be where he was right now. Still, the spiders' work went on regardless of his internal protests.

The several dozens of glowing spiders surveyed Marcus' soul and whenever they found a damaged area, they struck their one especially long leg that was sharp and thin like a needle into him. Then they would unravel that part of his soul before creating some thread and stitching it back together.

Just like the last time this had occurred; Marcus could do nothing but watch for what felt like days as the spiders put him back together with whatever strange power they had.

After what seemed like an eternity, the Soul Weaving Spiders finished stitching the last of Marcus' soul back together.

With their jobs complete, the dozens of glowing spiders moved to the edges of Marcus' soul and jumped off into the white void. Marcus let out a deep sigh of relief now that the spiders were gone. He had not been able to calm down the entire time they were on him. No matter how much time had seemed to pass, he could not lessen his anxiety at all. 'If I ever end up in hell, this is what awaits me there.' Marcus thought, his soul trembling.

Yet as he was remembering the horror that he had just lived through, he realized that he could now move again.

Feeling a bit of trepidation, he clenched his right hand into a fist slowly.

Unlike after he was stuck with the backlash of using Soul Burst and Soul Devour at the same time, he could now move just as easily as when he was in peak condition.

"Please feel free to have some tea and whichever of the sweets you want. We can get into the important details after relaxing a bit." Nodding his head, Marcus did as the Administrator suggested and grabbed some of the cookies before taking a sip of the tea that had been provided.

'Damn that is good. This is better than anything I have ever had. I wonder if I can learn how to make it as well.' Marcus thought after tasting the tea.

"Yes, I quite like this brew as well. Though I am afraid you will not be able to make it so long as you are on Mirrion. The leaves used for it do not grow on this world and you would probably need to get your cooking skill up to level ten to make a cup as good as this one even if you did have the ingredients necessary to brew it." The Administrator said.

Marcus frowned when he heard this but could only accept what the Administrator had said. Though, a couple of seconds later he froze up when he realized something what had just occurred.

"Wait, did you just respond to my inner monologue?!" Marcus said in alarm.

"Yes." The Administrator replied innocently before taking a bite of cake.

Knowing that his mind was being read and that his every thought would be heard unnerved Marcus. While he trusted the Administrator for the most part, he still did not want anyone to know everything he was thinking at any moment. He would not feel comfortable even if it was Mrazivý who was able to hear his every thought.

"Okay, no need to be panicked. I shut off the Supreme Skill that allows me to read minds. Your thoughts are your own again." The Administrator said with a mischievous expression.

Marcus could not be totally sure that what she said was the truth, but he concluded that there was no use worrying about it. He was not planning on badmouthing her in his head anyway.

"Your pretty relaxed considering what just went down recently." Marcus observed. However, his words elicited a frown from the Administrator.

"That is because this is my first break in several days. I have been working nonstop to clean up this mess and another one. This is by far the busiest I have been since the original creation of Mirrion." The Administrator said in a huff.

"I remember now, you said that the great spirits were busy dealing with another issue. And if I recall correctly, I believe that man that came out of the Tower of Heaven said he had set up a distraction for you."

"Yes, that is right. Before coming here to rescue you and put down a trespasser, I was having to deal with a huge problem. I am sure that you remember the grimoire that you encountered a few years ago, correct?"

"How could I forget it. That thing brought forth some truly nasty creatures." Marcus said, shuddering as he remembered the horrors he had to fight back then.

"Well, a dangerous cabal in possession of a second one reared their head around two weeks ago and caused quite the incident. I had my hands full dealing with it which is why I did not notice what was going on here right away. Though now I know that was just a distraction to cover up that man's infiltration through the Tower of Heaven."
