Reincarnated As The Diabolic System

Shane pushed himself off the ground without any delay. Even though he staggered and felt like his body might end up breaking apart, he still stood on the ground with his body straight. He walked at a slow pace closer, as his eyes stared at the sword.

Tess looked at her brother in confusion. She still couldn't let go of the scene she had just witnessed. She was forced to watch the death scene of herself and her parents. If that wasn't enough, she ended up seeing Shane's strange end back in the mortal world.

She was so shocked and depressed that she had momentarily forgotten about where she was, and after regaining her senses, when the dark power above her head was lifted, she could feel her shoulders relaxing as negative thoughts flew out of her head without any delay.

Now that she saw her brother in a bad condition, her emotions triggered yet again, making her feel as if she had fallen deeper into the pool of depression. She couldn't control herself anymore as tears fell from her eyes, damping her rosy cheeks.

"Shane….. bro…. Why are you….." Tess couldn't even finish a sentence properly as she watched her bleeding brother walking toward the sword latched into the wall. Her lips parted and closed as she stared at the man without blinking her eyelids.

She wasn't even in the right mind to care about anything, not even mentioning the people behind her. They were also in a horrific state of mind, and they couldn't come off the ground anymore. Frank and Jake seemed to have seen something that made their entire bodies tremble and turn pale as they continued to sit on the ground with a trance-like expression on their faces.

Neither of them cared about Tess, who was emotional, and Shane, who walked about in unsteady steps, staring at the sword attached to the wall. That weapon trembled more and more as Shane kept moving closer.

It seemed as if the sword had recognized its owner, and it was beaming with happiness as it leaked out bits and pieces of dark cosmic energy. Shane finally got close enough as he took hold of the sword without any delay. The sword stopped trembling—looking like it sighed and relaxed in his hands.

Shane wondered what the origin of this sword was. He stared at it for a while. The blade was entirely black with a dark purple hilt made out of strange carvings that couldn't be called dangerous, but beautiful. There was a diamond glowing at the center of the hilt, which glowed and made people not able to look at it directly.

He frowned as he opened the stats of this sword.

Shane stared at the stats in shock. True, he did manage to get an amazing weapon, but why were all the stats at one hundred, but only luck was zero? He blinked and placed it in his inventory before putting it to the back of his mind.

He would just have to ask his master later.

Only then did he turn to look at his teammates. They were staring at him with pale faces and blank expressions, especially Tess. The girl's red hair scattered all over her face as tears poured out of her eyes.

Shane stood there awkwardly and scratched the back of his head. How could he explain now that he used dark cosmic energy? He hadn't even told his sister about it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Tess jumped up her feet and launched onto Shane, pulling the man into a hug. She cried hysterically, "Shane, you're alive. Thank God."

Shane tilted his head and remembered suddenly that they all seemed to have seen a horrific scene. He sighed and patted her shoulders. It seemed he would have to ask Dirt to deal with these people's memories.

At this time, both Frank and Jake said nothing. They got up on their feet with their head lowered, but their fingers were curled up to form fists. Veins were visible, showing their emotions that they couldn't hide.

Shane decided not to comment on it as he nodded and said, "We should get out first."

The group of four people walked forth. Shane took the lead this time and continued onward to find an elevator. Since this was a hotel, he would probably be able to get out through the front desk.

Would they still see those strange beings in the lobby?

As he was wondering while walking outside the small boss room, the entire space started to tremble. He raised his head to see cracks appearing on the ceiling as dust fell off one after another.

His eyes widened. This place was going to collapse! He turned toward his teammates, "You guys have no time to think about that horror scene. If you don't get it together, you might end up becoming a part of a horror movie. Decide what you want. I'm taking my sister out."

His voice was cold, causing the listeners to shiver from head to toe. Frank and Jake were stunned before they nodded slowly, giving a vague reaction. Tess frowned, "They are your friends. How can you talk like that?"

Was he rude? Shane scratched his cheeks and chuckled, "Tess, I'm just trying to shock them out of their states. I don't mean it."

Tess nodded, and Shane sighed in relief. It wasn't that he meant to say those words, but he felt a little angry at this time and had to find someone to vent his emotions.

He turned and gave his teammates a glance filled with guilt. He shouldn't have said that.

Then, he shrugged as the group of four people rushed toward the elevator. Even the elevator was trembling. Cracks appeared even inside that small space. Shane quickly found the ground floor button as he pressed it. The elevator moved at the fastest speed possible, making Shane think they were not going down, but falling!

His eyes were gripped with anxiety as he held the walls on either side and said, "Hold on, guys! I think we're falling down!"

Tess followed his movements and also held the wall. She whimpered but said nothing.

Fortunately, the elevator didn't crash to their deaths. The four of them sighed in relief and got out of the elevator when it reached the ground floor. At this time, the entire lobby was empty as if there weren't a group of strange creatures present. All the furniture were scattered around, and some were even broken.

"Let's get out of here. I think we need to open that door," Shane pointed out the front door on the other side of the lobby.

Jake finally opened his mouth after all this time, "I don't want to stay here any longer. Let's go."
