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 71: Family

"Evans... you can speak Chinese?"

"...What?"

Van could not help but furrow his eyebrows as he looked at Andrea's face, which seemed to be completely white in shock. Ah Sahm was also utterly taken aback as he froze on the spot.

"Y… you spoke Chinese!", Andrea's eyes widened even further.

"I… did?", Van could not help but gulp nervously. He didn't even realize it. Did his skill activate on its own? If so, he really needs to learn how to control it. He was somewhat able to use it when he was trying to find the 4 men that ransacked his house, asking some of the stray animals in the streets. It was a pretty weird experience now that he was thinking straight.

"Wow, man", Ah Sahm clapped his hand, "You can speak mandarin? That's probably the first time in my whole life that I heard an American fluently speak our language", he said, his tone filled with awe.

"...Yes", Van could only nod his head, "They teach it as an extra class in the Academy"
