Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 19 18. Let’s Start!

Shane was astonished after seeing this scene in front of his eyes. He could see a transparent blue window as his dashboard appeared in front of his eyes, indicating his current bodily stats. Everyone around him was so shocked that they continued to stare at Shane with complex emotions.

"How the heck did he do it?"

"Didn't he have no energy?"

"Why?! Why the heck we didn't do it, but he could?!"

At normal times, Shane could have arrogantly shown off, but this time, even he was confused. But this time, he was bewildered after staring at his stats.

Above these items mentioned, he could see different tabs of things such as inventory, skills, weapons, shop, crana, etc. His eyes wandered around and stopped the 'attribute: darkness' part. He raised his head as he glanced at Tess and asked, "What's your attribute?"

"It says fire….." said the girl with a confused expression. Then she looked at her brother, "What the f*ck is this?"

"Looks like stats similar to a game."

"Hey, you!" A guy spoke loudly, looking at Shane with an arrogant expression, "What's your attribute?"

"Yeah, tell us."

"It shouldn't be empty, should it?"

"I'm also curious about the stats of a non-energy system."

"Oh wait, can he even call the inventory out? He doesn't even have cosmic energy."

Shane's eyes squinted as he took a deep breath and ignored the people around him. He continued to look at the window in front of him.

Just what did these question marks mean in front of maxCE? And his attribute clearly indicated that he had dark energy flowing through his veins, but he was curious. Would a demon's stats also look like this?

He raised his head and asked, "Can demons and monsters also use inventory?"

"Only intelligent demons can. Monsters can't even speak," Ed was silent as he waited for the students to adjust to the inventory. Then he glared at other students and said, "By the way, he can use the inventory despite not being able to use cosmic energy. The inventory doesn't require you to use divine energy.

"Everyone is a soul that comes from the Absolute Being and has some power that helps them keep their bodies running. Just like electricity," Ed's words calmed down the crowd, "So even mortals can use it, but we don't teach mortals this because it'd create havoc there on the mortal plane. Only beings in the higher plane are allowed to use the inventory."

Everyone silenced and stopped pointing fingers at Shane. Ed continued, "Let's start today's schedule."

A few hours later, after dinner.

Shane and Tess dragged their feet towards his room and plastered their bodies on the bed as if they had been thrown there by someone. Today, it was basic sword fighting skill practice without any power. It was so tiring that despite having a strengthened body, they were all tired and every part of their limbs pained.

The two of them couldn't move at this point. They even had to eat with stiff hands.

Even though the students were all newbies who had gathered within two days, none of them talked to one another in front of Ed, and by the time they all made it to the dining hall, they were so tired that none of them opened their mouths.

That waswhy Shane and Frank still weren't able to talk. They didn't meet another friend or enemy.

Shane mumbled, "Hey, go to your room and sleep. I want to lie properly."

"Carry me there."

"Are you a f*cking doll? Go away."

"Ahem," thefamiliar voice of Dirt echoed in the room, "Mr. 12254801, you're needed. You can't sleep yet. It's time for your night classes."

"W-What?!" Shane's body instantly shot up, only to feel a wave of pain throbbing throughout his limbs. He flinched and glared at Dirt, who was hanging on the window, "Can't you enter through the door? And I have a name! It's Shane Cooper!"

"12254801."

"Shane."

"12254801."

"Are you a robot? Repeating the same thing again and again?" Shane paused when he realized what he had just said, "Oh right, you're a robot," he shook his head and continued, "Forget it. I shouldn't expect anything from a thing like you."

Dirt's expression turned dark as he said, "Mr. Cooper, you better watch out. Someday, I'll be the one to save you!"

Shane waved his hand and got up to his feet. He more like pushed himself up, despite the throbbing pain throughout his body. Even though he didn't want to, he also wanted answers. So he raised his head and said arrogantly, "Let's go."

After a few minutes, the two arrived at the open ground. When Shane reached there, as Ed stood beneath the starry sky filled with a moon and dark clouds, the bald man turned around and put up a restriction around him, "What's your attribute?"

"It says darkness."

He watched Ed's eyes narrowing. Even he was confused about it, especially after hearing what the instructor had said about having dark energy. It could mean that Shane had ended up gaining access to this energy somehow using unorthodox methods by mistake, but that didn't explain why he couldn't use it when he was on Earth.

Also, even if he had it inside his body, how come he was able to use it the moment he entered the system world?

Would it affect Tess?

And most importantly, would he end up facing severe consequences because of having dark energy? Shane gulped as negative thoughts appeared in his head as he looked up, "What's going to happen to me?"

Ed frowned, "Don't worry. Let's learn how to use your powers first. Tell me everything about your stats. Don't leave out anything."

Shane nodded as he started telling the instructor without hiding anything. After he was done, Ed's brows furrowed deeper, "It doesn't say that you don't have magical powers, but you have a question mark. It means the extent of your magic is unknown. Okay, now try using your powers."

".....how do you use powers?"

"Didn't you use it before?"

"It was an accident," Shane pursed his lips as he felt embarrassed about it. He should have figured it out already, but he didn't even after thinking about it, but he could tell one thing, "It has something to do with focus, right?"

Ed nodded, "Just as you did. You have to imagine your powers travelling through your body. Everytime you gain experience and break through levels, your magical powers will expand, and you can become even more powerful. But in your case…. Let's start."
