Reincarnated As The Diabolic System
168 167. Destruction
Hope walked back to her hotel room without saying anything. This time, she didn't bother using any magical technique or teleportation to get over to the hotel quickly. She didn't care about her tired arms and legs and continued to walk.
Shane also sensed that the girl's mood wasn't good. So he dared not say anything to trigger her. It wasn't like he was afraid or anything.
He just wanted to respect her silence.
That's right.
Shane was a legend! How could he be afraid of a mere girl?
As they were in their own world, Hope suddenly stopped and asked, "If you ever leave this place, will you ever miss me?"
Shane had question marks all over his forehead. Miss her? Well, yeah, he would miss the chance of not killing her. But that's all there is to it.
Just when he was thinking how to reply to her, he heard Hope say, "No, nevermind."
"What the heck happened to you?" Shane frowned. "You're behaving strangely."
"Really?" The corners of her lips curled up. "I've always been strange."
Shane frowned as he thought about it. He was about to ask more questions when he heard the woman say:
"Now that we're here, we are at the end of the rope," said Hope in a cheerful voice, making Shane imagine that melancholycoly tone from before was just his imagination. "How do you feel?"
"I just want to die," replied Shane.
Hope chuckled and shook her head, not continuing the topic anymore.
Slowly, the world started to change. With no Ed to control everything from behind the scenes like the man usually would, things escalated to the point that no one was able to do anything about it. Every system had a bad premonition in their hearts as if something bad was about to happen, but the only people who knew what was going to happen were only three people: Shane, Hope, and Max.
The latter burst out of the last dungeon after empowering it with powerful monsters. He just opened the demon realm's gate on the inside and set up a timer on the portal. After a while, it would open automatically, letting the monsters roam about freely.
This world was really going to be destroyed just like that.
At this time, Hope had nothing to do, as she said while leaning against the window. "Shane, did you like this place very much?"
Shane thought for a while and said, "Nope. I still like my previous life better."
"Then... would you mind going to that place again?"
Shane nodded innocently, with no hint of desire or anything else. "Sure. Count me in if we are jumping there."
"Shane… I have to say something. I-"
The world started shaking before she could even finish her words. She quickly gripped the frame of the window and stared outside with narrowed eyes. A smile blossomed on her face. "It's starting. Shane, I'll show you a grand view now!"
Shane tilted his head, not understanding why this girl was acting so strange.
She was almost acting as if they were going to be separated forever. He was actually okay with separating. He knew it was heartless of him to think like that, but really, they weren't even friends yet. Why would he feel bad about separating? He would, at most, feel nostalgic.
So he didn't understand the girl's emotions anymore… unless….
What, she didn't end up falling in love with him?
Shane's eyes widened when he thought of this, but he quickly shook his head. No, that was impossible. He ignored his thoughts and focused on the screen.
The entire place was trembling in the worst way possible. It almost felt as if there had been an earthquake around this place. But the system world had always been stable. How come something like this happened all of a sudden?
People started coming out of their houses, shops, and hotels. They were all afraid and had pale faces when they were out on the street. They glanced about around the place, but they couldn't find anything out of place.
"What's happening?"
"Why is the ground trembling?"
"Damn it, a tree fell just now! What's happening?"
Just as everyone was discussing among themselves, they heard someone yelling from the end of the street, "Monsters!!!! Monsters are coming! Run!!!!!"
Everyone's faces turned white as sheets of paper. They ran in another direction as fast as they could, not even caring about their houses anymore. They were only concerned with staying alive at this point.
But that was probably the worst decision they had ever made. When they reached the end of another street, they could hoard of monsters standing in front of them, staring at them with red eyes.
All of the systems could feel their hearts racing up their throats. "No, why are these monsters above a hundred level?! Who can tell me what's going on?"
That's right, the level of these monsters was 100 and above, and the street was filled with them. A strong, dark aura hit their faces, making them all kneel to the ground. Some weak people fainted directly, not being able to handle such a strong dark aura.
Hope frowned and changed her body, directly entering the mind space. She said, "Since you're the most powerful being, I think you can handle this situation. Use the cloak."
Shane wanted to hit her for not even asking his permission before. Of course, he was stronger than the monsters in front of him. He could get rid of them with just a flick of his fingers, but he won't do that anymore.
He donned two layers of cloak and proceeded to the street, where the monsters had already begun their rampage. Dead bodies and a hint of blood floated around the place in the air. Shane wrinkled his nose, not liking this scent. But he didn't have a choice as he glanced around the palce without blinking.
The monsters directly stuffed the live systems in their mouths like a bunch of carrots. They didn't care about the people screaming at the top of their lungs as if the monsters didn't have hearing capabilities. They just continued to eat one after another.
It wasn't until there was no one around that they stopped and glanced around. They started running in another direction when they smelled the hint of flesh.
They were on their way to another city on the continent.
There was a reason why Hope waited until now for this moment. The demon world was unstable until now, and there was a power struggle going on. Because the monsters wanted to become powerful enough to take over the throne, they could do whatever they wanted. So this was the perfect method to get rid of the system world at this time.
At this time, Shane also followed the monsters to see what was going to happen. Even though he disliked the smell of blood, he was curious to see if the system world had been completely destroyed.
He wanted to make sure that his mission would be fulfilled.
He didn't know what lay ahead of him, but he didn't care anymore. They had already arrived at this point. What was the point of hesitating?
They reached the other city soon enough, and the monsters started killing people. The group of monsters was growing more and more powerful.
At this time, Shane turned and looked at the person he didn't expect to still be alive.
was Wasn't the man still in the previous city? He had expected the system god to die alongside the others, but instead he was fleeing for his life, pushing people out of his way.
He scoffed when he looked at the man trying his best to survive by stepping on other people.
Didn't the man want to be a hero? Where had his heroic desire vanished?
Shane knew that there were no heroes here. Only villains wanted to destroy anything and everything. This world was no place for a goody-two-shoes type of person. Realistic people had deep darkness hidden in their hearts despite claiming to be good people.
Max was a good example of that. This person had two faces, and the man perhaps didn't know that. On one hand, he would often say that he was a hero, but on the other hand, he would start stepping on people for his selfish desires. So hypocritic. Perhaps that was why Hope chose this person.
Shane scoffed as he watched the monsters grab the system god and devour him in one go.
He had no intention of saving anyone here.
The entire system world was eventually destroyed, but the monsters were still hungry for power. As a result, they began to destroy the technology and sucked the power source.
It was truly a terrifying sight.
But Shane wasn't phased. Instead, he felt a deep sense of satisfaction that quickly turned into pleasure.
Since when did he start to love destructive scenes? Perhaps he didn't even realize that he had also turned into a villain.
