Romeru

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.

Gil screamed as he waved his hands. His voice, however, was drowned by the cheers and jeers of the prisoners that surrounded them.

"You're done now, soldier boy! That little midget is feisty!"

"I vote on the boy! The boy will win!"

"Did you see how he massacred Toguro earlier!? He wasn't even able to fight back!"

"W… w… what?" Gil gulped nervously as he listened to the people that called for his death. He knew that he wouldn't really survive long if the word got out to everyone that he was a guard, but it would seem that it did not even take a single day for everyone to find out.

"Van… what are we going to do!?" Gil slightly stepped back as he leaned in closer to Van.

"I am sorry, mister Gil. But I have friends waiting for me outside."
