Reincarnated As The Diabolic System-Chapter 110 109. Spotted Him?

That scene frightened Shane to death. He didn't know what was going on with Ed, but he could tell one thing for sure—his master was suffering right now because of his own mess.

Shane gritted his teeth and asked, "Is there no way to heal him?"

Dirt, who was using his powers to keep Ed's body stable, stopped and turned. "There is. You have to find a herb, but that thing is most difficult to find, especially with your current disposition."

"Why?"

Dirt sighed as he pushed himself off the ground. "Actually, Ed's condition isn't that bad. It should've been easier to save him, but…. This damned man doesn't have any desire to live anymore. So we can't do anything about it."

"Why?" Shane was surprised.

Up until now, he knew that Ed was probably the most narcissistic person he had ever met. He had never even imagined questioning this person's desire to live. And now when he suddenly faced this situation, he didn't know what to think anymore.

He stared at Ed's sleeping face and frowned, "Why doesn't he want to live? Is this because of his past?"

"Kind of…." Dirt shook his head. "You can't change it anymore, but what you can really do is heal him first."

Shane nodded, but in his mind, he had determined to try to find more about Ed's past while searching for the herb.

"Where should I find that herb?"

"In the southernmost dungeon." Dirt got back to sharing his powers as he looked a bit tired. "These days, I can't do much to help you. All my powers are being used here. So you'll be on your own."

Shane nodded. "Fine. I'll find a group and join the treasuring team."

"Don't reveal yourself."

"No promises!" Shane said as he turned and walked out of the cave.

Dirt sighed as he looked over at his boss. "Your disciple is too much like you, boss. I'm worried that he'll end up making your mistakes. It's a good thing he still doesn't know about that thing. If he knew, he might end up using it to save you, and the entire tragedy will repeat all over again."

Ed couldn't say anything anymore as he continued lying on the cold and hard ground.

On the other side, Shane had already entered the black market again. He wanted to find more opportunities to enter the groups heading toward the southernmost dungeons. Dirt didn't specify which dungeon, but when he looked at the map, he realized that there were three dungeons that he should search for.

The robot had already sent him a picture of that herb. So it wasn't difficult to recognize.

It was just that when he went to find out more information about that thing, he found out that the herb was really rare to find. So rare that it was already called an ancient medicine that would always remain out of touch.

The reason was that a certain dungeon had never been cleared. This herb was the last and the most powerful benefit that one would get after killing the boss. The most ridiculous thing was that no one had dared to enter this dungeon because of how difficult it was!

The most powerful ones had money they could use to buy medicinal techniques. They wouldn't even stay in the Orient continent in the first place to be able to enter this dungeon. The only people who lived here were below level ten, who were all weaker as compared to the dungeon boss, at an unknown level.

So up until this day, the three dungeons remained intact, not even getting cleared for the first time. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

Usually, when a dungeon gets cleared, the higher authorities send the criminal demons and monsters there for punishment. After the punishment, they would be killed by the systems who visited the place.

But these three dungeons remained intact because powerful ones weren't here to clear it up and weaker systems didn't dare to go there anymore.

After searching for quite a while, Shane still couldn't find another group of people who wanted to enter this place. So he gave up and decided to try whether could find even one person.

He stood in front of a screen that displayed the list of people interested in joining a team for the southernmost dungeons. Surprisingly, after a round of searching, he finally found a name.

A hooded woman.

Shane raised his brows at that. It seemed that the other party also had a few secrets. He decided to give the woman a go as he opened the profile of that person and sent the dungeon partnership request.

A moment later, his request was accepted soon enough followed by a video call request.

As soon as the call went through, a black screen appeared at first. After that, a woman's voice echoed through the speaker.

"Hello?"

Shane frowned. He knew that this voice was altered just by hearing it.

He opened his mouth first and didn't continue to talk nonsense. "Are you willing to enter those three dungeons?"

"Yes." The woman spoke and sent him the coordinates. "Teleport to this place. I'm waiting."

Shane nodded and went to the nearest teleportation portal. He had earned enough money from the previous job, but not enough to use teleportation. It was too costly.

But what could he do when his partner mentioned it? He knew that the southernmost dungeons were far away and were likely to take three days for him to visit by foot. It was better to just teleport to that place.

After he teleported, he instantly appeared in an empty room with only a woman in a hood, leaning against the wall. She seemed arrogant as she raised her chin.

"Ready?"

Shane nodded and didn't speak anymore.

What he didn't know was that this woman was the same person who had kept an eye on him several times. He had just become unlucky enough to be targeted by her all over again.

But he didn't know that his identity was revealed already. The two people continued to walk without conversing with one another.

The woman in the hood glanced at the man walking beside her and scoffed. She had almost lost this man's trace. It was a good thing she was able to find him thanks to Jake and Frank that day.

If she hadn't continued to follow them at all times, she wouldn't have been able to find this person at all.

"No matter how much you hide, I'll be able to find you quickly! Didn't I do it in the end?" She muttered under her breath.

"Eh? Did you say something?" Shane gave the woman a clueless glance.

The woman in a hood didn't continue to talk as she walked over and found a carriage that was heading over to the direction of the first dungeon. She quickly jumped inside and glanced back at the young man coldly.

"I'll leave if you don't enter in five seconds."

Shane didn't waste his time bothering about this woman in the hood anymore as he jumped as well and sat back inside the crowded place. At this time, they could hear people talking about what was happening in the institute.

"Ed's dead. Dead, you know?" One of the people uttered a sad expression on his face. "The worse thing is that his own disciple killed him and even stole his robot!"

"Tell me something I don't know!" Another man said in a rough tone. "Everyone knows this piece of news."

"No, the news that I'm going to share is related to this." The man lowered his voice. "I actually spotted Shane earlier today!"

Shane, who was being discussed, stiffened. He darted his glance at the two people and frowned. Did he perhaps give himself away?

Even the woman in a hood couldn't help but glance at the people talking.

"What the heck are you saying?! Where is he?" Another man got excited. "Why didn't you tell the authorities?! Do you even know how much money we could have earned by handing him over?"

"But I'm still not sure if it's Shane…." The man sighed. "After all, we never saw the youth for real. We only have a few shots and videos from the institute. I still can't believe such a promising young man was actually a demon! He acted so much like a human being."

,m "You're right."

"But what if that person really was Shane?"

"Then I'm probably in trouble." The other man trembled. "He saw my face and even smiled creepily."

"F*ck!!!!!" The other man cursed. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?! I wouldn't have gone with you!"

"So this is how our friendship goes? Great! Don't ask me for favors anymore."

After that, the two people chatted on a different topic, but Shane wasn't interested in that. Instead, his brows furrowed deeper.

Someone spotted him? But how was that possible?

He was already doing his job. He rarely had time to wander around in his real face. He almost didn't take out his mask unless he was taking a bath.

So who was the person they spotted and where?

He opened his mouth and asked, "Where did you spot him?"

The two people were dumbfounded as they looked at Shane and said, "Around the institute, but I think it's a false alarm. Don't worry."
