Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 99 98. A New World!

Shane didn't know what Echo was thinking back in the institute. He had supposedly wreaked everything and managed to become the most wanted criminal available in the system world. With his fake identity at hand, he could at least take on simple missions and survive.

But what exactly would he do after surviving? His initial goal was to keep his sister safe and live to provide for her. Now when she wasn't alive anymore, Shane felt like he had turned into a headless fly that couldn't go anywhere.

At this moment, his head was hidden inside a black hood. Even if someone took off his hood, he wore a fake human face mask with burns all over the skin. So they wouldn't be able to recognize his face.

Even if they saw it, they would only be disgusted by the burnt human face mask.

He continued to walk down the street. The last time he arrived here was when he had initially entered this world. How naive was he back then? Even the scene of the systems getting torn apart by the monsters was enough to make him puke his guts out.

Now, if he happened to come across such a scene, he wouldn't even blink twice and just ignore it. He was okay with brutal and gruesome scenes that used to make his heart wrenched.

Was he turning into a monster himself?

He could feel himself becoming indifferent to everything. Of course, his attachment to Tess couldn't be denied because she was his own sister. It was just that….

He had started to feel something was wrong with himself. He hadn't noticed it before, but now that Tess had died and he had calmed down, he didn't really feel like crying anymore.

What's more? After that straw broke apart, other than the initial shock, his heart remained calm and collected.

At present, he was too calm. So calm that he couldn't feel any emotions swirling to the depths of his heart.

Was that the result of Tess's death?

He didn't know, but he wasn't even feeling that much anxiety. As if his sister's death broke apart the human part of him.

He stared at the street. He had really thought he would feel remorse, but his heart had turned cold and calm since he woke up. Was that his way to remorse?

Shane frowned. He remembered when his grandfather died when he was still on Earth. He had cried like a little kid, bawling his eyes out in his twenties. He had even stopped attending his classes and stayed home, depressed for a few days.

But now….

It hadn't even been a day, and he was already calm.

Shane continued to walk until he reached his destination. To his right was a shabby little shop with only one floor upstairs. Even the door sign was broken.

The 'P' word kept hanging upside down as the rest of the words stuck to the door, looking full of dust—atrick's Portal.

He ignored the shabbiness of the shop and pushed open the door. A sudden smell of medicines filled his nose, making it wrinkle. He turned left and tapped the counter with his index finger.

"The portal?"

An old lady across the counter was jolted awake after the knocking sound. She wiped the traces of saliva from the corners of her mouth and nodded.

"Come with me."

The lady dressed in a long robe walked out of the counter and entered the door to his right. The room was so small that he could only finish measuring the room in a few steps.

He silently followed the lady as he entered the door. It was a stairway. 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

So the portal was upstairs.

Shane didn't complain as the lady opened a door once they reached upstairs. There was a portal similar to what he had seen at the institute. Perhaps the good-looking portal was the only striking thing available here.

The old lady turned to him and said, "A thousand Crana for one trial whether you pass or fail."

A thousand Crana?!

Were these people trying to loot his hard-earned money? He couldn't use his usual live stream anymore. Since Dirt installed his fake ID into his system, even his live stream would change. Even if he dared to open his original account, he was afraid that before even the authorities came, the public themselves would kill him first.

Thankfully, Dirt changed it all. The robot had also changed his stats, altering the value a bit.

It didn't matter anyway. He couldn't use his powers.

Despite hurdles, he wasn't as anxious as he should have been. He only opened the menu and transferred the money. He knew that the old lady was supposedly charging 300 Crana more, but there was a reason why this shop was so small and inconspicuous.

This shop marks the starting point of the black market. From here on out, all the systems that weren't accepted in society would wander around without fear of the authorities. Even the officials would consciously ignore this place, turning back their hover cars once they reached the front gate of this portal house.

Shane paid the money as the woman left. She didn't even turn back to glance at him before closing the door behind him. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

He had to say; he was a little nervous. This was his first job as a system after changing his identity.

His previous experiences were sh*tty to the point that he didn't even feel like entering.

But….

For some reason, even though reluctant thoughts flashed through his head, he didn't seem to budge. He was still calm and collected in his heart.

He took a deep breath and stepped forward, entering the portal once and for all.

Soon enough, Shane ended up entering a familiar space. He looked at the welcome page in front of him.

[Welcome, system 12147484]

Shane raised his brows. Dirt's efficiency was really great.

[Please, click the random difficulty button.]

He clicked it. To his misfortune, it again ended up with him getting severe difficulty.

He sighed and saw the following pop-up appearing in front of his eyes.

[Please choose the type of world you want to enter.]

There, he saw a list of worlds that varied from modern to ancient. He was pleasantly surprised after seeing this. Sure enough. The difference between being a student and having a job was high.

As he thought about it, he continued to stare at the transparent screen without any expression on his face. Soon enough, he found the kind of world he was looking for and clicked it.

[Initializing….]

[Please, wait….]

[Downloading files….]

[Choosing a random host….]

[System, get ready to enter the world.]

Shane's vision went dizzy after that as he felt his body pull up in another direction. He pressed his hands against his forehead. The next moment he opened his eyes, he was already inside his host's mind.

The first thing he did after entering the world was to read the world setting and mission.

After a few minutes, he sighed.

It turned out to be a typical modern world with a supernatural element in the form of superheroes and villains. The body he got was that of a villain. This time, his host's mission was to change the villain's date.

For the first time, he didn't get a mission that was to destroy the world. He squinted his eyes.

Was that why his fake ID got so many options while his original ID got only a few?

This world had turned upside down originally because of a meteorite shower. Several people got powers, and one of them was the villain. He was overpowered by everything and was surprisingly one of the two most powerful people in the world.

Shane could assume that the second most powerful person could be the protagonist. He read it further and found out that he was right.

So, how could he change the villain's fate?

He read additional information about the protagonist and the villain. The two people were also closely related to one another. In a sense, they were neighbors and had been classmates since high school. Even though they had known one another from a young age, they didn't have that much interaction.

They would only nod at one another after crossing their paths. The only conservation they ever had was when the two of them faced one another.

The two people who could have become best friends and sorted out their difficulties turned into enemies. The villain was even given the blame for the things he never did.

After that, the villain himself snapped and started killing people because that's what his image had become. The only thing he was thankful for was that when the villain started doing cruel activities, he wore a mask on his face.

So his identity was still saved until one day, the protagonist captured him. Then the mask was taken off.

The hero was even more shocked after finding out who the villain was! After that, the villain's life turned downhill, making him even more pitiful. In the end, the villain ended up getting killed brutally for all the crimes he had committed, saving people from his wrath.

People celebrated his death and partied all night.

Shane frowned. He seemed to feel like there should be another person who was possibly behind this phenomenon.

Suddenly, he heard a voice echoing in the background. "Where am I?"
