Reincarnated As The Diabolic System

Chapter 53 52. Welcome To My Theater



While Shane and his group were trying to pass through different floors, somewhere at the top, there was a dark room with a small, round table at the center. A bowl filled with popcorn was placed at the center as two sets of hands continued to take one piece after another to stuff it into their mouths. It seemed that there was a stage light being placed at the table that only highlighted their hands.

The faces of these two people were hidden in the dark.

In front of the table, facing the two people sitting side by side, a huge screen showed Shane's and his group's current status. At this time, they had just entered the next floor after passing through the monster's mouth level.

The man on the right scoffed, "Why isn't he using it?"

Another man's voice echoed in the dark room, "He will. After all, you have prepared so much for him while managing to keep the level of this dungeon easy. You have done a good job."

This person's voice was very familiar because he was the same person who had killed Noah back then. He picked up another two pieces of popcorn from the bowl and played with them for a while, using his fingers as he leaned forward. His smile was visible as the light shone slightly on the lower half of his face. His sharp jaw became visible for a moment as he opened his mouth:

"I'll finally get to witness this power that I've been told about," a smile played on his lips, "That person raised my expectations of Shane. It would be a shame to do all of these things if he doesn't live up to my expectations."

They both saw Shane fighting with the monsters on another floor with the ice sword. This time, huge frogs even bigger than that of a human being were surrounding the youths on the screen. They all used their individual powers, but Shane still didn't use his dark powers.

Soon, they were able to walk through the sea of huge frogs into a big hall and found an elevator without any effort. The man on the left leaned back again as his lips hid in the darkness as he sneered, "Let's see how he can continue to keep up with this."

"But the question is," the right man voiced out his confusion, "Shane is being secretive. Why?"

"Might be because of the presence of Jake," the man on the left frowned, "No, that's not it. From what I have heard of him, Shane isn't a goody two shoes. As long as it benefits him, he will save others, but that person seemed to know him well. If something goes against Shane's benefits, he would rather save himself first. So it doesn't make sense that he isn't using his powers at all."

All of a sudden, he smiled and leaned forward again. This time, his smile was filled with amusement, "Don't tell me he still doesn't know how to use his powers," he chuckled and hit the table as it trembled and a few popcorn kernels flew out of the bowl, "Interesting!"

"You're wasting my food! Why are you here though?" The man on the right finally couldn't take it anymore, "I, as your subordinate, am already doing my duty. You ordered me to test out Shane and force him to use his powers, and I'm on it! Why are you disturbing me like this?"

"I want to personally witness this scene," the guy on the left made a grave face as he stared at the screen deeply, "He cannot be the King of Darkness because I have seen for myself his soul getting destroyed in the depths of hell. This fact was hidden from everyone, and not even the higher worlds know about it. That person doesn't exist anymore. So how come Shane out of all the people in this world got to use that power? How? I'm just curious."

The man on the right felt a chill down his spine as he took a deep breath and said, "Should I increase the difficulty?"

"No way," the other person leaned back again and started chewing the popcorn, "Shane would himself be bored if we continued to repeat the same thing. Let's make things interesting. Lower the level even more. Send easier monsters out there. I want him to climb up here faster than ever."

They silently continued to watch as the man on the right gave his consent and moved his hand, sending a message to his subordinates. After that, they continued to watch the screen in silence.

Shane and his group passed the fourth floor after half an hour easily, without any difficulty. It even seemed that the dungeon had become easier at this point, so much so that Shane didn't use any powerful weapons anymore. He just had to use his regular knife to attack the monsters, and they would die right in front of him with one strike.

He stared at the monsters of varied forms lying in front of his eyes on the ground with a confusion-filled glance, "Hey, isn't it strange? This is way too easy for a light blue dungeon."

Everyone frowned upon seeing this. Tess opened the elevator after killing all the monsters. They were getting quite accustomed to killing at this point. At least, her hands weren't trembling as before. Shane was also not feeling a tiny bit of guilt while slashing his sword against the monsters' bodies.

Tess entered the elevator as she glanced at the button that would lead them upstairs only to stare at the board with her eyes widened.

Boss room.

"It's here!"

Shane glanced at that place and quietly pressed the button when everyone entered the small elevator. He wiped his face. He was sure he smelt of blood and sweat, and he yearned to take a shower, but he couldn't.

He desperately wanted a weapon, especially after knowing he casually couldn't continue to use other attribute weapons at all times since it made him lose his energy at a faster rate. At the same time, he also couldn't use his powers because he didn't possess any skills that could be fused with dark cosmic energy within his body.

Other skills would instead use his lifeforce instead of dark energy and that made him exhausted at a faster rate. Should he try to create a blast of dark cosmic energy by pouring it out of his body like before? It seemed to have made his attack stronger back then when he had fought with Ed for the first time.

Shane glanced at Jake and stopped thinking about it. He didn't want to reveal his powers yet. He had to make sure he and his sister would stay out of danger. So the fewer people knew about his powers, the better it was for the two of them to survive. He hadn't even told Frank about it yet!

The elevator opened soon, revealing a dark room. The round table was visible as someone sat beyond it. There was a bowl filled with popcorn as a screen came into view that showed Shane and his group entering.

At this time, the other man who had killed Noah seemed to have disappeared, leaving his subordinate behind. The man sitting on the chair wasn't visible since only the table was highlighted with the light coming from above.

He suddenly let out a chuckle, "Welcome to my theater."
