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 74: The Pet

In a vast and empty room, an old lady, wearing only her underwear, was currently seated in the middle with her legs crossed. Her calm and rhythmic breaths were the only sounds that echoed throughout the room. Her hair, which was already white with age, still reflected the lamps that were hanging on the ceiling.

In this room, there was nothing but peace and quiet--

"Mother, did you hear the news from some of the servants!?"

"What!?"

The old lady could not help but open her eyes violently as her peace was suddenly disrupted. A woman, with straight brown hair, barged inside the room. She looked almost identical to Victoria, except her eyes didn't contain a hint of fatigue in them.

"Victoria is bringing in some friends today!", the woman said.
