My Hermes System

A Speedster in a Fantasy World More than a thousand years ago, portals opened up in the world. Swallowing up the world whole with the vile creatures that came out of it. The humans struggled for years as their weaponry could only get them as far as fending them off. But everything changed when the first super human was discovered, a child that was born after the portals have appeared. From then on, the humans have discovered that there were others, and they all held the same power... A power that was known as the System. And those who were born with it were called System Holders. The System Holders, with their mysterious powers, were the ones who helped recover the world from the monsters, once again reclaiming it. And now, a hundred years later, a System Holder was born, the Holder of the Hermes System, the Gatherer of Souls.

Chapter 305: Objective

A small pressure was slowly being built inside Charlotte's tavern, only being prevented from growing by the sound of Lorei's voice stuttering in the air. The tone of her voice, growing louder and louder so as to not allow a fight to happen.

"I'll return, okay? I'll return. Lower your weapons!"

No, she did not want to return. But what else could she do? She knew how stubborn frost giants could be. Add that to his father's natural-born stubbornness, it was a recipe for disaster. And as soon as her words of surrender reached her father's ears, he quickly sheathed his weapon back, also signaling his men to do the same.

"...Are you sure?"

"I am sure, please don't kill them!" Lorei said as she completely blocked her father from Van's view.

"..." Van, who heard Lorei's words, could not help but blink a couple of times in disbelief. Why did she think he was going to kill them? He wasn't some heartless murderer that just killed people.
