Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 87 86. The Army!

"Really, thanks a lot!" Norman drank the healing potions that healed his injury in no time and got up quickly while putting on his clothes. "Don't even think about helping me a second time!"

Shane said nothing as he knew he couldn't fulfill that promise. He opened his mouth a while later and said, "Host, let's combine the pieces together."

"Sure, sure. You don't have to worry because," said the man while waving his hands in the air, "the world is still at war."

"Not necessarily," replied Shane. He frowned as he had a bad feeling. The war had already been going on for a while, and it was already a miracle people were still alive to carry it on.

Just as they were discussing, it turned out, Shane's feelings were correct. Not only did the war end, but somehow, they all got word on how Norman had collected all the pieces one after another without stopping. While Norman was just about to walk out of that area, all of a sudden, the ground beneath him started vibrating.

He frowned as he glanced around. Everything else, even small plants were trembling. Just then, he heard his system say, "Be careful!"

He immediately glanced around as he pulled out his sword. He knew better than to act all rebellious at a time like this. Even though his system was a pain in the a** sometimes, he would listen to that voice in his head when things were critical.

The person Norman was criticizing at this time was currently focusing on the radar. The group of people surrounding them kept increasing at a higher speed, making his heart jump to his throat in anxiety.

He finally opened his mouth and asked, "What's happening?"

"We are surrounded." Shane turned the radar in every direction, but the result was still the same as he said, "I think the entire army has surrounded us."

"F*ck!" Norman cursed under his breath. "What should I do?" 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

"You should," said Shane, as he paused for a few seconds while searching for something in his inventory, "purchase the item I'll send you in a while and use it on those demons."

Norman nodded as he opened his menu at the same time. He waited a while before he sent a text. He quickly purchased the item without thinking twice. Soon enough, he took out the purchased item and stared at the thing in his hands in a daze.

"What's this?" asked Norman while staring at the small pinkish flower in the palm of his hand. "Why did you make me purchase this small thing?"

"Don't trust its size." Shane closed the shop as he leaned back with a satisfied expression on his face. "It has the capacity to confuse as many people as possible."

"Confuse?"

"Yup," replied Shane as he sighed. "Though it has a time limit. You can make use of the confusion and run away to hide in a better place."

Norman nodded. "Good idea."

He opened the description. After learning how to use that thing, he glanced around, only to find that the demons had already come closer to him. He could see most of them had angry faces as they rushed closer and closer. Some of the demons were on horses, while others mounted the monsters. They even had an army of those monsters far away.

Norman looked down at the little flower and took a deep breath. He muttered the spell in his mind while focusing on his energy. Soon enough, the flower glowed and flew up in the air while circling round and round. After a few circles, it suddenly stopped and vanished without a trace. Norman kept staring at that place, thinking it would come back to his hands.

"What are you waiting for?" Shane's angry voice echoed in his mind. "Do you want to purchase that thing again? It cost you a thousand Crana!"

"Again?" Norman tilted his head. "Don't tell me it was one-time use."

"Yes," barked Shane, "so, hurry up!"

The host said nothing after that as he rushed outside the circle of monsters and demons surrounding him. He quickly found a little cave to hide as he pulled out the pieces of the wooden array.

He stared at those pieces and scratched the back of his neck and asked the most obvious question, "Do we need glue?"

"For what?"

"To stick this," commented Norman as he gestured to the pieces lying on the ground, "or do you have any other ideas?"

Of course, Shane did have an idea about how they should go about it, but he still wondered what kind of thing was in Norman's brain to make him think of such a useless method in this magical world.

He sighed. "You realize you're in the world of magic and demons, don't you?"

"Uh-huh." Norman tilted his head as he thought for a while before realizing something. "Wait, I have to use my powers?"

"Exactly." Shane finally let out a smile. "You are not that foolish."

Norman ignored his system's comments and closed his eyes as he set his palms right above the pieces of wood. He didn't know what he was going to do, but he might as well share both of his energies with the array to find answers.

As he was ready to start, he felt the ground beneath him vibrating again for the second time. He frowned and opened his eyes before collecting the array from the ground.

He cursed under his breath. "What should we do now? Can I use that spell?"

Shane knew what his host was referring to. He simply replied, "Don't if you want to live."

"What do you mean?"

"Even though the spell is powerful, it can even blast your entire body if you suck away excess energy in your body. I'm sure you don't want to die before blasting off the entire planet."

Norman finally showed an anxious expression on his face as he said, "Can I purchase that flower again?"

"You can't because," said Shane as he glanced at the Crana stats of his host, "you don't have enough balance. We have wasted a lot in healing potions and other items in the realms."

"What a f*cking bad day!" complained Norman as he looked outside the small entrance of the cave, only to find that all the demons and monsters had already surrounded them once again. "What's the possibility that I can still combine those pieces together and win?"

Shane thought for a while as he calculated the winning possibility and breathed, "Not a lot. Better not try something like that."

"Then what? You don't actually want me to fight these beings alone," shuddered Norman as he continued, "do you?"

"Well…." Shane's voice trailed off as he pursed his lips. "Your other attribute is lightning. We had purchased plenty of swords and spells related to that. You can use it."

Norman wanted to refute it, but he couldn't. He silently accepted his fate as he silently pulled out the weapon he had saved. It was an electrical blast weapon that would help create enormous blasts on his enemies. He quickly rushed out of his hiding place and slashed his weapon toward the first row of enemies.

Suddenly, a sharp, sword-like arc blew out and blasted toward the enemies in the front, creating a thunderous sound that echoed throughout the place. But to Norman's disappointment, even after blasting the first row of enemies, a lot more remained in the back. It seemed as if their numbers kept increasing as the seconds passed.

Norman gripped the hilt of the sword tightly as he gulped, "This is impossible."

"I know," expressed Shane as he stared at the scene. "It seems they have a way to find you."

Norman let out a laugh as he continued to shower one blast after another as if he were on a killing spree. "Of course, they do! I have freaking done something no one could until now!"

"I have a plan, but you will have to follow every word," proposed Shane. "Can you do it?"

"Sure." Norman didn't worry about it as he continued his work, but soon enough, he found that with the corpses increasing, the demons and monsters got closer to him as compared to before. He frowned while dealing with them at the same time. "They're like unending enemies!"

"When I take control of your body," Shane ignored his host's comments as he started purchasing a lot more weapons in his own inventory, "remember to be ready to attack at any minute and take out the wooden array."

"What are you going to do?" Norman frowned after hearing his system's words as he continued to blast away his enemies.

The corners of Shane's lips curved up. "I'm going to have some fun."

"Huh?" Norman couldn't tell what was going on in his system's mind, but he complied and said nothing. He silently let the man take control of his body.

Soon after Shane took control of the body, he opened his eyes and stared darkly at the row of demons and monsters surrounding him. He sneered.
