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 338: Orphan

"Now what?"

Van dug his hand into the tree he was hiding on as the whole mountain it was sitting on started to move. For what seemed like miles, all the trees and plants moved like dominos, tilting and rearranging, but never actually being uprooted.

He was going to run away at first as he thought that someone was attacking him, but after a few seconds of waiting for an entity to arrive, he still remained to be the only sentient life for miles-- not really.

Just another few seconds later, and the perpetrator causing the quivering of the mountain revealed itself… as the mountain itself.

"!!!"

Van could not help but take in a long and deep breath as a pair of eyeballs slowly emerged from the base of the mountain; the pair of eyes were attached to some sort of colossal tentacle, disgustingly waving in the air and causing slight thunders as it did so.
