Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 17 16. Ed Hudson

Shane looked at the bald man as if speaking 'are you crazy?' through his glance. The bald man ignored that look and continued speaking, "From now on, you'll be calling me master, even in front of the others. Got it?"

"Okay," Shane finally spoke after thinking for a while. Since he was useless, being a student of this 'master' would undoubtedly help him, but…. "I want you to take in Tess too."

The bald man didn't care, "We'll see about that in the future depending on how she performs."

"Wait, what exactly happened that day?" Shane couldn't help but ask, "It wasn't you who saved me, was it?"

The instructor was silent for a while as he raised his hand and gestured to the robot to do something. The latter nodded as divine energy again sparkled at the fingertips of the robot that spread across the room. Then he turned at the young man and said, "This room is soundproof. Now, what do you remember from that day?"

Shane frowned as he thought seriously, but as long as he thought deeply about that day, he would get a headache similar to that of a hangover. He stopped thinking about it and said, "I felt comfortable as if something warm was entering my body and healed my pain."

The bald instructor frowned after hearing this. Then he opened his mouth and explained truthfully, "I had my live stream watch over you guys since I couldn't interfere with the punishment center directly, but then I noticed a distortion in the stream as if someone had hacked into the system. This had happened for the first time. So I rushed over there, and by the time I reached…."

"I was already out," Shane couldn't help but frown at this point, "then who was the one who saved me?"

"I have no idea, but whoever it was, he also put a spell on you. I can't feel any energy in your veins anymore," the bald man muttered under his breath, "Dirt, show him."

Dirt nodded as he raised his hands. Divine energy sparkled as it created a holographic image of Shane's internal body. He opened his mouth, "This is what your entire body looked like when I accessed your memories for the first time."

Shane looked over only to see a black and red wave coming out of his body. He couldn't see the face, but the structure of the body seemed similar to his. He also noticed the same thing running through his veins.

"That was before, and now see this," Dirt showed another holographic image of a body similar to before, but it didn't have any dark and red energy. "See this? We were unable to see anything after I checked your body when you were unconscious. It almost seems like it was a hallucination before, but I know what I saw, and I can't deny it."

Shane couldn't help but frown. This entire system world was strange in itself. The thing about him accessing dark energy made him even more nervous, and now, there was someone who not only saved him, but also put a restriction on his body to hide his powers from others. So did it mean he also couldn't access his powers anymore?

It didn't matter, but those powers were a necessity if he wanted to save Tess….

His heart couldn't help but feel like it was being torn apart. He had never felt so helpless before, except for the time he had died.

When the instructor saw Shane's frown deepening, he opened his mouth, "Let me teach you how to access your powers for the time being." 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Shane nodded as the bald man took back the soundproofing spell and said, "Come with me."

The three of them walked out as the bald man spoke, "By the way, I also have a name."

Eh? This bald and muscular guy had a name? Was this person also like him who had arrived from Earth? Just as Shane was about mutter out his doubts, he heard the man speaking again:

"Ed Hudson, and you'll call me Master Ed from now on."

Shane wanted to refute, but when he thought of the complexity of his powers, he shut his mouth and became obedient. In any case, he had to give his and his sister's survival the first priority.

The instructor kept talking, "Also, no one from that day remembers anything. So don't worry about the info leak."

"Why are you talking so much today? That's not like you at all, Master Ed," Shane spoke nonsense again while walking through the corridor.

"Keep talking, and you can see what happens."

Shane shut his mouth. This muscular bald man was probably among the few people who ever managed to shut him up like this. He could only remember his own university teacher, parents, and the old neighbor when he was on Earth who had done this.

A hint of nostalgia appeared in Shane's eyes at this time.

Soon enough, they reached the open ground where everyone was still running. Shane could see Frank at the end of everyone, trying to catch up, but couldn't, because of his weak body. He finally stopped and leaned on his legs while taking deep breaths.

Shane's eyes lit up. He hadn't messed with Frank for a long time. Just as he was about to take off, Ed grabbed his collar and looked coldly at his disciple, "Rule number one. Don't even breathe loudly without my permission."

"What the f*ck is wrong with you?" 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"If you want to be thrown among the goblins, go ahead and curse me again."

Shane shut his mouth at this time and didn't dare to even glance at the instructor.

The latter nodded in satisfaction as he pushed his disciple away and glanced at the people running as he yelled at the top of his voice, "Punishment's over. Come back."

When the students heard that voice, they all stopped and cried tears of happiness as they looked at the bald man with happy smiles on their faces.

"Instructor, you have finally decided to forgive us!"

"You're so good. We will never go against you."

Ed looked around as he spoke with an expressionless face, "Lesson number one. How to access your powers. Gather in formation."

Everyone else groaned as the men stood on the left while the girls stood on the right. Shane also walked over and stood among the men as he noticed Tess glancing at him with a worried expression on her face.

Shane nodded and smiled, "I'm fine."

"Wait, what the f*ck are you doing here?" One of the boys standing behind him exclaimed.

"Yeah, this guy doesn't have any power. So it's not fair! He's just going to be a nuisance for the rest of us," the boy made a disgusted expression while looking at Shane's face, "I say, instructor, we should kick him out."

The bald man rubbed his forehead and said, "You, after class, you'll run fifty rounds again."

The student wailed, but Ed didn't even look at him this time as he glanced around, "When you're successfully able to access your divine energy, you'll be given a student system ID, and you can participate in the examination using it."

"Does it mean we will get hosts?" One of the girls spoke with an excited expression on her face.

"Yes, and you'll have three exams. If you pass them all, you can pass through the portal and head over to Occident."
