Reincarnated As The Diabolic System

What Angela saw was a round complex geometrical figure that had multiple shades of black and red. All the complex lines kept blinking one after another with only a black dot at the center. She frowned as she walked closer and scratched her head, "Is this mathematics?"

Even Jake's host, who was a couple of years older than the girl didn't know what to do anymore as he frowned and walked over. The sea of corpses was still there, but they had probably gotten habitual of smelling it for so long as they stood there in the dark room.

The only glowing light that brightened up this room was that array. At first, they couldn't see because it was covered up by the snakes, but when the monsters fell to the ground one after another, the room brightened up further even more.

Right now, the two people stared at the complex circle with confusion.

"I think we have to touch it."

"Go ahead," the young boy had no intention of playing the hero as he crossed his arms on his chest and scoffed, "That's why I don't team up with girls during games. They're all so useless and always expect the men to do all the work."

"Because men are stronger!" Angela fumed in anger as she glared at the young man beside her. Just then, the latter also turned and flashed a mocking smile, causing the girl to avert her eyes as traces of blush spread on her cheeks. Neither of them cared about asking their systems.

Shane was busy staring at the wall with squinted eyes. This seemed like an array or something, similar to how the turtleneck shirt demon had used previously. If he accidentally touched the center, who knows what might happen? They might even get sucked or trapped inside a hallucination or something.

Just as he was thinking about it, the argument between the two people got worse. He had a bad feeling in his heart.

"You shut up!" Angela put her hands on her waist as she stood face to face, glaring at the young man in front of her eyes, "Who do you think you are? A prince?"

"I'm better than you in every aspect of life! I'm at least a graduate!"

"Fine, don't help me," the girl suddenly raised her hand and touched the black dot at the center with a smug smile on her face, "There, I'm the real hero here."

Shane facepalmed himself. This was what he had feared the most. This host of his was stubborn as a bull. He sighed.

When Angela heard that sigh, she frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

What could Shane say? He shook his head and said, "Get ready. Something's bad going to happen now."

"Bad? Why should you-"

Angela's speech was cut off in the middle as she felt a pull toward the circle. It was as if someone with a thousand arms had grabbed her body and pulled her inside. Her body trembled as she froze.

​ All the thoughts in her head vanished out of the blue. The man beside her was also not faring better. His face paled as he grabbed the girl's arms and scolded, "This is all because of you! Ahhhhh, we are both going to die!"

Angela was too scared to speak a single word. After a while, the two of them were sucked inside the circle with their respective systems.

When the two people opened their eyes, they were standing at the center of a snake and ladders board. There was a dice-shaped cube hologram circling in the air above their heads.

The most horrific thing was that the snakes in here seemed to be alive. They hissed at Angela as she shrank her neck and took a deep breath, "What should we do?"

She was finally advancing toward Shane. The latter's cold voice echoed in her head, "Play the game. What else?"

"Will you help me?" The girl suddenly sounded weak as she tried to lure her system into helping her but Shane wasn't going to give in just yet. He knew that if he continued to ignore his host like this, he might end up failing the exam, but at this point, he didn't care.

He was already an odd man out, to begin with. The less he attracted the attention of others, the better the chances for him to survive. Even if he continued to stay here on this continent without having any ambitions to move to the rich place as he had heard from others, he could still take his sister and survive, away from the eyes of people.

He had a golden finger in the form of a demonic power-sucking thing. He could use this to continue to survive by killing monsters and solving difficult system jobs at hand.

He didn't need to seek attention. So he wasn't even serious about passing this exam.

When Angela heard only silence from the other end, she thought that the system had gone offline. She banged her head as she asked, "System? Where did you go?"

"I'm here," Shane sighed, "I'm not going to control your body and play it for you. You're the host. This is your job. My duty is to support you, not become the protagonist."

The girl was stunned as she looked around with a pale face. She didn't even want to play with this stupid snake and ladders game at the moment. After trying to calm herself for a while, she finally urged, "Fine. I'll play this stupid game for now."

As soon as she said it, the entire place started to tremble. The dice that were rolling above their heads stopped moving as if someone froze the time. The entire board vanished from the view for a second before coming back again, and this time, the two of them were standing at the start button.

The giant dice in the air were currently in Angela's, and she didn't even know how it ended up in her arms. She stared at it for a second before throwing it away in fear as if it were burning. That was the biggest mistake she ever made at the moment. Just when the dice rolled onto the ground, Angela moved her feet, but it couldn't move at all.

It was as if someone had frozen her entire body right here using some kind of magic. Her entire body turned white as she trembled.

What was happening?!
