Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 22 21. Which One Will You Choose?

Ed's body stiffened as he heard those words. It seemed as if he didn't want to reveal this thing, but he also hesitated because if he wouldn't reveal it, his disciple might suffer even more. In the end, he sighed and rubbed his forehead in dismay, "It's a system meant to demonize your host."

"What does that mean….?" For some reason, Shane didn't have a good feeling about this. He swallowed a lump of saliva as he stared at the person in front of him nervously.

Ed became irritated by that kind of gaze. He said, "The last time someone got this job, that system ended up becoming mentally insane because of the intensity and need of the job."

"Mentally insane?" Shane mumbled those words.

"That was a hundred years ago, and the system who was given this job didn't have any magic in his veins, and he died out of sickness and poverty in Orient."

Shane's eyes widened, "Why would there be such a system job in existence that can make someone insane to the point of dying?!"

"This type of job…." Ed sighed and explained, "It's necessary whenever there is a need to destroy an entire world in the mortal realm."

"D-Destroy…." Shane's mind buzzed as he thought of something, "Y-You don't mean…. I-I have to destroy an entire world?"

"No," When Ed said that, Shane's shoulders relaxed as if he had been unburdened, only to freeze again after hearing the next words: "You have to destroy worlds."

Shane's face paled upon hearing that. His entire body trembled as he stood there, at a loss of words. He was just a normal young man studying at the university, always coming out on top. Even though he wasn't a bad person, he couldn't be purely a good two-shoes.

He had his share of fights, and being a prodigy, he had to face rivals on a daily basis during his days as a student, but never ever had he thought back then that he would end up being the cause to destroy several worlds. Why did this have to happen to him? He didn't know. But at the moment, his spirit had turned extremely low to the point that his face turned darker and darker as he continued to think about his situation.

He clearly didn't do anything wrong, then why did he have to suffer like this? He refused to choose what fate had designed for him! He might as well write his own fate!

Well, he sounded just like the protagonists of several heroic animes.

When Ed saw Shane's expressions changing so much, he placed his hand on the young man's shoulders and said in a gentle voice, "You don't have to take up the responsibility to destroy those worlds. It won't be your fault. Those people ended up coming together due to karma in their current life. Those people have likely committed severe crimes in their past lives and were bound to be dead and punished in hell for a decade before coming back to reincarnate.

"So, you're basically a medium, nothing else. Don't worry about taking up the responsibility."

"Can I change my job?"

"This…." Ed cleared his throat after thinking for a while, "I haven't heard of a system changing his job. It's assigned based on your karma and innate nature."

"So you mean my innate nature is to destroy everything?!"

"I'm not saying that," Ed sighed as he rubbed his forehead, "You got this job because you have dark energy flowing through your veins."

This sentence triggered the inner rebellious being inside Shane. His fingers curled up in a fist as he looked at Ed with a sharp gaze, "Is it my fault that I'm like this?! I've always been a gentleman all my life! Why did this have to happen to me? I don't f*cking have the freedom to make a choice!

"Destroy worlds just because of karma? Sure, go ahead, but I'm sorry, I'm out—" 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

"Shane, that's not how you talk to your master."

"What? You want me to be obedient as a fool?!" Shane was so angry that his entire face had turned red, "Why didn't you think your words sounded ridiculous just now? You're asking a normal mortal to destroy millions of lives. Why don't you do it yourself?!" 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

"Then, we'll assign you worlds with demons and monsters, okay?"

"But—"

"System 12254801, you don't want to follow orders anymore?" Ed's expression suddenly turned dark as he stared at his disciple with an angry and cold gaze that was enough to make anyone shiver from head to toe, "I can kill you right here and send you off to reincarnate anytime if you don't want to become a system anymore, but I can't guarantee your sister's life anymore."

Shane's mouth shut as he averted his eyes and turned toward the door. He reached out slowly and opened it without saying another word as he entered the room.

It was similarly white except for the central part. There was a vortex thing that moved round and round as if waiting for someone to put a stop, "That's the energy field created by the system God, and it sends you to another dimension temporarily. You'll only be able to come back through your menu after clicking on exit.

"Remember, if you exit without finishing your mission, you'll be punished severely. You won't even have a chance before you will be sent off to the punishment center directly from the system dimension."

Shane nodded as he stared at the vortex for a while before walking over and putting his hand in the center. A tingling feeling appeared at that place. Shane pursed his lips as he turned back and said, "I'll be going, Master Ed."

The bald man said nothing as he continued to stare at Shane with his dark and cold gaze.

Shane turned away awkwardly and entered space through the vortex without looking back. His entire body tingled as he passed through that thing. When he opened his eyes the next moment, he was already inside a dark space. He couldn't see anyone or anything at the moment. Suddenly, a pop-up appeared in front of his eyes:

[Initialising….]

[Calculating karma….]

[Calculating stats….]

[Analysing protocol….]

[Analyzing the system's job….]

[Selecting a host through the random protocol….]

[System 12254801, choose the type of host you want:

1. Virtual

2. Real]

Shane's brows rose as he glanced at that. It meant that choosing virtual meant that the host and the world wouldn't be real. He clicked on the virtual tab without hesitation.

Another pop-up appeared in front of him.

[This choice won't give you Crana and Exp points more than ten. You get only three virtual tries after which the learning system will disappear. Are you sure?]

He clicked yes. Since the virtual system was meant for learning, he knew he wouldn't be able to get more Exp, but he had entered this space for learning, not anything else.

[Congratulations, System 12254801. We have found two worlds for you. Which one will you choose?]

Eh? He could choose? That was first. He clicked on the next option and saw two simple worlds—

[1. Vampire world

2. Battle world]
