Soul Fusion Online

Chapter 60 - A Male God Appeared

Hiding in a cave that was located on the side of a mountain. KillerT stood in front of Blade. "Blade, what if we killed each other? We can get rid of the bounty and make money?"

Blade's eyes narrowed as he shook his head. "I thought about that, but if you read the patch notes, there were a few rules on bounties. If you have a bounty, you can take out bounties on others, but you can not turn them in. So even if I were to kill you, I would get nothing. Not to mention we would be de-leveled and most likely killed before we can meet up again at respawn. For now, we can only sit tight and try to think of a solution. I personally do not wish to spend a bunch of time regaining my levels."

"Mmm... I hear that. I do think I know who took the bounty out on us, and to be honest, I never thought that bastard would have so much money." KillerT gritted his teeth. Just remembering that day when he was outwitted at every turn pissed him off to the core.

"I have a feeling it was him too. I think it is time we get our brothers to come to this game. The other games are all thinning out. It's time for us to move everyone here." Blade firmly decided. "I will contact them when we log out, but… But we need someplace safe to log out. When you have a bounty, your character stays in game, and if you die, you will respawn so we can easily be camped."

"Fuck! Why did they make such a stupid system!" KillerT gritted his teeth. No other games had such a stupid system!

"This game has been out for around a month and has become very popular. With the kind of world this game has, it is not unreasonable. But when this is all over, we need to find out that guy's name. Did you catch his name by chance when you were fighting with him?" Blade asked. He died so fast he never got a chance to find out who his killer was. There was no such thing as battle logs in this game.

"No, I was so busy dealing with the area boss that I had no chance to find out." KillerT felt gloomy. They had no leads to go on.

"Then we can only wait until we see him again. Once we do, we will make sure to kill him a hundredfold! I will make that bastard de-level to level 0 and then camp him until he deletes his account!" Blade yelled, a murderous intent spilled from his body.

"I heard yelling over here!"

"It's them, get them!"

"Fuck! Shit! KillerT, you got me riled up!" Blade immediately blamed KillerT for being discovered. The two were once again on the run.

"Ah-choo! Hmm? Can you catch colds in this game?" Yuki looked around as she sat at a wooden table in the Mercenary guild rubbing her nose. Chi was sitting next to her. They were watching the recruitment board in front of them. After filling out the form, Yuki could only sigh. She had wanted to keep their identities a secret, but now their names were on full display on the recruitment board. But in order to make a mercenary group, they had no choice but to do this.

"Ryu, do you think people will be willing to join?" Chi asked. She gripped the hand that was holding hers. Both were a little nervous and wondered what kind of people would actually join them, if any.

"We can only wait and see." Yuki rubbed her thumb back and forth on Chi's hand as her knee bounced up and down. It was apparent that Yuki was also nervous.

A few hours passed when a group of three girls came walking in. Each one, just as pretty as the next. "WhiteLotus, why are you not teaming up with GreenHat?"

"Humph! I don't need to be with that bastard wherever I go. We may be dating in real life, but that does not mean I want to be with him day and night. Let's just form a mercenary group and take on requests." WhiteLotus answered. "By the way, Rose, why are you worried about my relationship when you have not even gotten a boyfriend yourself?"

"I…" Rose blushed. "It's not that I don't want one, but everyone I meet only wants me to do things with them. I do not want a relationship built on sex."

"That's true. Although GreenHat and I started that way, we have really gotten to know each other outside the game and to be honest, he is a very sweet and loveable guy." WhiteLotus blushed. She then turned to the third girl who was quiet this entire time."Violet, what about you?"

"Mmm… I am not sure I can say I want a guy. You know my preferences." Violet replied.

"Just because you like girls doesn't mean you can't have a girlfriend." WhiteLotus knew her friend was into other girls, but none of that mattered.

"There is one girl I do like, that most thought was a man until recently, but I think she is taken..." Violet's voice lowered as she got towards the end of her sentence. She felt depressed just saying such a thing.

"You can always go and talk to her. It's worth a try at least, right? You never know she may just be free." WhiteLotus said. She was trying to cheer up her friend.

"Can I help you?" The old man behind the counter gazed at the three girls. His eyes seemed to be piercing right through the.

"Yes, um… We want to form a mercenary group." WhiteLotus answered.

"Do you have five members?" The old man asked.

"Five? You need five members?" WhiteLotus asked in confusion. She never read anything that stated you needed five members to form a mercenary group.

The old man's brow furrowed as he stood up and pointed at the three girls. "You damn young people keep coming up here wanting to form mercenary groups with too little people. Why are you pulling this old man away from his work when you do not even have enough people to form a group!? What are you, stupid? The stupid trio!?"

"I..." WhiteLotus never expected that old man to start yelling at her and cursing her. She was at a complete loss for words. She didn't realize NPCs could be so rude!

"Humph! It just so happens there is a group of two looking to form a mercenary group. Go look at the board at a group called Shadow Squad. Now don't bother me anymore unless you have five people!" The old man sat back down and turned his head away. He completely ignored the flabbergasted girls and continued doing his work.

"WhiteLotus, what should we do?" Rose asked.

"What else can we do. Let's go look at this Shadow Squad. If the two in it are not creepy, we can just join them so we can start taking requests." WhiteLotus did not want to join people she did not know, but since there was no other way around it, she had no choice at this time, and she did not want to team up with GreenHat and his friends.

"Ryu, look, people are going up to the recruitment board and three of them at that!" Chi said excitedly.

"We can only wait to see. Don't get too hopeful in case they decide not to contact us. There are other recruit notices on the board." Yuki patted Chi's hand. She didn't want Chi to be disappointed if they went with another group.

But it seemed their worry was for not because Yuki suddenly got a private message from WhiteLotus. "Hello, I am contacting you about the recruitment notice for Shadow Squad. Are you free to talk?"

"Yeah, turn around and look at the back table." Yuki replied as she waved her hand at WhiteLotus, who turned around and looked in their direction.

WhiteLotus gave a nod before turning to talk to her friends. Only then did they walk over to where Yuki and Chi were seated. WhiteLotus bowed her head slightly as she said: "Nice to meet you. I am WhiteLotus. This here is Violet and Rose."

"It's good to meet you, I'm Ryu, and next to me is Chi." Yuki introduced herself and Chi. She then got straight to the point. "I will not beat around the bush. Are you willing to join my mercenary group? You don't need to team with us or anything. Chi and I just want to be able to take out requests that are not just bounties"

"I see… We can join you but you have to accept one request from me." WhiteLotus looked at the two who had their faces hidden by cloaks. "Let me see what you look like."

Yuki frowned but still nodded. She reached up and took off her hood, revealing her handsome face. The three girls all stared at her in shock causing the group to go quiet. "A Male god just appeared!" Rose suddenly broke the silence.

"Don't even think about it!" Chi removed her hood and glared at Rose. She didn't want anyone to have designs on her Yuki!
