Reincarnated As The Diabolic System

While everyone was waiting for a certain someone, a little away in the desert area, people were walking across the market area, especially a restaurant filled with poor people coming here for a cup of tea. That was all they could afford at the moment while staying here.

At one table, two people wearing hoods sat there without speaking to anyone else. Their waists had costly belts that made them the odd men out. The waiter who noticed them sitting smiled and walked over, "May I help you, sirs?"

The hooded person on the waiter's right said, "Bring a coffee for me and an ice cream for the lady."

The waiter sneaked a glance at the other hooded person and smiled, "Sure."

'That's a girl? I didn't see it coming. She doesn't look like a girl,' he thought.

The girl in the hood hit the table with anger in her voice, "You dare."

"Well, what do you expect from me?" The guy shrugged and sat back. None of their faces were visible at the moment. It seemed there was a fog-like thing in front of their faces that hid them from others.

The two of them didn't converse anymore. They sat there without speaking as the guy opened his mouth first, "So, what are your orders?"

The woman spoke nothing as she waited for the waiter to arrive there with their orders. She picked up the spoon and ate the ice cream quietly, "You already know what my orders are, don't you?"

"I still want to confirm," said the hooded guy, as he frowned, his voice full of doubts, "Why are you after him? Are you sure he is…" free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

"Just do what you're told," the lady gulped the entire ice cream in one go and stood up, "We're done talking. I don't want to hear that you have failed ever again."

After that, the girl vanished from that place without a trace. The guy grimaced, "She should have paid first."

A few hours later….

Dirt was still standing inside the portal room. Ed had gone to rest a while ago, leaving him to take care of Shane when the latter arrived. Since Dirt was a robot, he didn't have any concept of getting bored. He sighed as he stood there, staring at the portal blankly.

He glanced at the watch on his wrist and shook his head as he muttered under his breath, "What's taking him so much time?"

Just then, the entire portal started shaking slightly as if it were about to spit something. Dirt's expressions changed as he immediately walked over and stared at the portal with a serious face. He texted his boss about the changes in the portal and stood there without moving an inch.

A body suddenly spat out of the portal's mouth, landing on Dirt headfirst. The latter was thrown back from the impact as his eyes widened. Even Dirt hadn't expected this to happen. He had assumed that the boy would just come walking through the portal, but why was this guy's body thrown outside the punishment area?

Just what exactly did he do to end up like this?

Dirt pushed Shane off of him and examined the body only to realize that the boy had fallen unconscious at an unknown time. His clothes were tattered and every part of his body was covered with either blood or dust. Injuries formed on every part of his body, making Shane look even more pitiful.

Dirt didn't waste any more time before initiating the healing process. Since his attribute wasn't healing, he could only use another method to heal the boy fully.

His attribute was so unique that everyone wanted their hands on him when he was created, but his boss got him first and stole him from right under the System God's nose, and the latter couldn't do a thing about it.

But still, Dirt couldn't use this healing technique frequently since it used too much of his energy. As long as Shane wasn't in danger, Dirt would just leave it to nature to heal the boy, but at the present moment, it looked like the boy would end up dying any minute if he backed away.

So he had no choice but to save him since he was also his boss's first ever disciple.

He finished the healing process as Shane woke up with a jolt. The latter blinked as if he were trying to clear his vision as he got up. He rubbed the back of his neck and asked, "I came back…."

"What did you do inside the punishment area?"

Shane was in a dazed condition for a while before he turned toward Dirt as he took a deep breath, "Never ever send me to that punishment area with a desert and the flying insects ever again. It's a pain in the a**."

Ah, so it was that world. No wonder Shane looked too broken to the point of dying. Dirt shook his head and got up, "Boss is waiting for you. Get up."

Shane nodded. Even though he had many questions, he had just survived through two dangerous worlds one after another. He was both mentally and emotionally exhausted despite having his body healed. He wanted to just let his body fall on the bed and close his eyes for a few hours.

The two of them walked out of the building one after another. Just then, someone bumped them, making Shane stumble back a few steps. He raised his head, and before he could see the person, the latter hugged him, clasping him firmly in an embrace.

"Brother!" The girl released him and punched him in the stomach, "If you dare do that ever again, I'll kill you with my own two hands!" 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

Shane, who had just been healed, felt pain as his stomach churned up from the impact. He groaned and rubbed his stomach and asked, "Why are you stronger than me?"

"My stats have risen," Tess flipped her hair back as she looked at him smugly, "Unlike a certain someone."

Shane swallowed back the words he was going to say as he stood speechless at that place. So now basically everyone around him managed to upgrade their stats only leaving him behind the class. Great!

He shook his head, "I'll see you later. I have to see my master."

Before anyone could interrupt, Dirt directly brought him to the staff room, inside Ed's cabin. Everyone had their own cabins with their names. Even though Shane hadn't met other teachers yet, they were still present at the moment as he passed by several cabins and entered Ed's.

They gave him a strange look when he was entering and murmured amongst themselves, making him feel even stranger. They were surely talking about him, weren't they? Well, he was Ed's first disciple and a failure one at that. People were gossipy in nature.

It wasn't that he hadn't expected this.

He just wondered whom these teachers taught since all the students were currently under Ed for now. He shrugged and pushed open the door.

Ed was flipping through a book while on his seat behind the desk. The room was still the same with boring pictures hanging on the wall about him receiving various awards. There were even photos of Ed teaching students how to fight.

Shane didn't spare them a glance and sat in the chair in front of the desk and asked frankly, "What's going on?"

"You don't need to worry about it," Ed closed the book and stared at Shane, "You need an attribute weapon."

"Duh," Shane rolled his eyes, "Tell me something I don't know."

"I have booked a dungeon for you. There's a chance that you'll find your weapon there, but you have to take someone with you," Shane was going to open his mouth when Ed raised his hand, "Not me or Dirt. We don't have time. Take someone from the students."

"But boss…." Dirt opened his mouth, "He can't use his power to the highest extent. That strange power has blocked 80% of his powers, making him rather useless."

Shane tilted his head and nodded. That was true. When he had managed to defeat Ed back then, he could still use power, and his body had unexplainable power that made him stronger. If he still had that amount of energy in his veins, perhaps he wouldn't have failed in the previous world.

"Let's unlock your power first, shall we?" Ed glanced at Dirt, "I'm sure you can manage this."

"Leave it to me," said Dirt as he smiled.
