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 222: Start of the Duel

"What are you doing, Mr. Evans?"

"What do you think I am doing, Ms. Elton?"

Angela could only turn her head towards Van, who suddenly lay beside her on the bed.

"..."

The two remained staring at each other for a few seconds, before finally--

"The bed is big enough for the both of us," Van said before he too turned his back on Angela and slightly pulled the blanket, "Goodnight."

"..."

"Hm," Angela could only blink a couple of times before closing her eyes. And then, after a few hours, when the two were obviously asleep, the connecting door leading to Charlotte's room very slowly and very quietly opened.

In the darkness, Charlotte stepped ever so quietly as she made her way in front of Van's bed. This was probably the most control she had on her physical strength, as her toes did not even make a sound on the brittle floor.
