Till | ALNST 03

Till never considered himself capable of saving the world. He didn't even consider himself capable of saving anyone... He was physically weak, didn't have the superpowers others had, like flight, telekinesis, mind-reading... Oh, Till could only dream of such things.

He was an ordinary guy. His day began with coffee from a vending machine, a few dozen packages, and endless streets. He was a courier. A perfectly ordinary one. Perhaps the only thing that truly distinguished him was his speed.

Till didn't have such a remarkable ability... He ran very fast.
So fast that he once managed to deliver an order to the other side of the city before the app had time to update its location.

That's why the system chose him.

[Congratulations.]

[You have been chosen as the "One who will defeat evil."]

Till read the message three times.

• No.

[Your unique skill: "Fast Feet."]

• No.

[Chance of surviving an encounter with the forces of evil: 7%.]

• Definitely not.

From that moment on, his life went completely wrong.

The cult, having learned that they would have an enemy who could possibly stop them, declared a hunt for Till.
Strangers in cloaks chased him through the alleys.

And the worst thing is that for some reason they were absolutely sure that Till possessed some incredible power.

But alas... He did not possess it.
He just ran really fast.

Another chase ended with Till literally running into the first person he came across, knocking him down along with his own bag.

• Sorry! I'll explain later!

Till was about to run again, but stopped because the system appeared right before his eyes.

[A suitable ally has been found.]

[It is recommended to stay close to him.]

Till slowly looked at the man in front of him. Then at the message. Then back at the man.

• Just don't tell me you see it too...

And for the first time in days, Till decided not to run away.
For now....
