Chapter 56 55. Get Lost, You Freak!

In the dark, close to where the hologram of the demon and Shane were conversing, two people stood in the dark. This time, there wasn't a round table there. They just stood there, hiding in the dark as they stared at the scene in the spotlight.

One of them said: "You're useless."

The other demon's face turned red, "Then why don't you do it, boss?"

The man beside him was the same person who had killed Noah. he smiled and said, "I don't want to bloody my hands."

"F*ck you!" the demon took a deep breath as if he were trying to calm himself down and said, "Get lost, you freak!"

The boss chuckled, but said nothing. They continued to stare at Shane, who was trembling with anger, but he didn't raise his sword anymore. He even retracted his energy and turned his weapon into a normal sword.

Then he raised his head and said, "Fine. Kill me, but only on one condition."

The demon hologram suddenly chuckled as he walked closer. He stood right in front of Shane and said, "You're in no position to negotiate."

After saying this, he flicked his fingers as both Frank and Jake fell to their knees, filled with sweat and fear in their eyes. When Shane saw this, his heartbeat increased. He had never been so nervous in his whole life.

If only he could find this demon's real body….

Shane's grip tightened on his sword, "I want to fight you head-on."

p "Really?" the demon raised his brows, "There's no difference between me and this hologram. Do you know how I did it? I'm the master of illusions and shows. I entertain people, and I don't need livestreams to see what others are doing. And now, I'm showing your dear comrades the most horrific scene ever. I doubt whether they'd managed to stay sane after coming out of this…. If they ever made it out alive, that is."

Shane's fingers curled into a fist as he stared coldly. He said nothing as he stared at the demon with anger in his eyes. He wished he could cut off this demon's head, but he couldn't unless he found this person's real body. He secretly glanced around, but he could only find darkness beyond the spotlight.

He frowned. Maybe he should try walking into the dark. He remembered he had also purchased a torch back then. So he immediately pulled out a torch from his inventory and dashed into the dark without waiting for the demon's words.

As soon as Shane entered the darkness, he heard the demon cursing under his breath and running after him. Footsteps echoed in the darkness soon enough behind Shane, but he didn't get flustered. He continued to wave his sword in random directions to find the real body of the demon.

Soon….

He would find the real demon and kill him. His sister would be fine. He pressed down the anxiety in his heart and continued to repeat his movements, but at this moment, he found nothing. His heart grew more and more frustrated as he moved forward.

Then, a voice echoed behind him, "Mr. Shane Cooper, where are you?"

Shane pursed his lips as a thin layer of sweat formed on his forehead. He took a deep breath as he continued to move forward. He didn't believe that he couldn't find the demon.

Far away, the boss and real body of the demon saw this scene and somehow felt it was comical. The boss chuckled as he patted his subordinate's shoulders, "Killing him was a simple task. You just had to draw the array and transfer his power into it. And here you are, playing a cat and mouse game."

"Shut up!" The demon's face was entirely black. He didn't want this, but the red-haired system was being stubborn. He would have to do something to frighten that person into submission.

He chuckled and said, "Let's make things interesting."

As soon as he said it, Shane heard his sister's ear piercing scream that stopped him in his footsteps. He glanced back as a trace of fear swept past his eyes.

The demon must have done something. As if to confirm his suspicion, he heard the demon saying, "That's what you get for running away. By default, you chose to kill your teammates to save your a**. Good, good! You're more of a demon than I am!"

Shane's anger rose to a higher degree as the hand that gripped his sword trembled. He only wanted to save his people as soon as possible, but he ended up making trouble for them, especially his sister.

He had never felt so helpless before. Even while dying in his previous life, he didn't even get enough time to feel helpless when he was electrocuted and fell unconscious. Even when he was with Noah, he had been sure that he would definitely find a way out of that situation. Even when he failed and had to seek the punishment, he faced it head-on, but now….

If it were him being impacted, he wouldn't be so emotional. He took a deep breath as his emotions spiraled in his mind.

Just then, a sense of feeling flashed past his brain, making him pause for a second. He couldn't tell what this feeling was, but he frowned. All the emotions that he had been feeling a while ago stopped spiraling. His mind didn't show him any horror movie about his sister dying in millions of ways.

Only one thought remained in his mind that flashed only for a quarter of one hundredth millionth part of a second—

This has happened before.

But before Shane could catch this train of thought, it disappeared out of the blue, making him frown deeper. He tilted his head.

What was he thinking just now?

Shane shook his head as if he were trying to force that thought to pop-up again, but no matter how much he focused, his brain was still empty.

"What? Scared enough to freeze?" The demon had already reached Shane at this time, "I had expected too many things from you."

Shane glanced at the demon and came back to the present situation.

His sister.

His expressions turned serious in an instant as he threw that strange thought to the back of his mind. He took a deep breath and said, "You're wrong. I was waiting for you."
