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.

Rick's hand quickly froze on the spot as Van's words of total and uninhibited refusal entered his ears. He was here to form an alliance and was even willing to offer Van some incentives, and yet what met him was a big fat 'No'.

Was there something wrong with his offer? Rick looked at some of the people behind him, looking for answers as to what he did wrong. But alas, all they could do was shake their head and look at each other in confusion.

"...May I ask why you refused my offer?" Rick's stretched hand slightly stuttered as it returned to his side, "Not only do you have nothing to lose, you gain the houses which you sought for."
