Soul Fusion Online

"Number 8, how many swordsmen do we have?" Ryu asked as he looked at the sword technique. "Blade Of One Thousand Shadows."  Even the name sounded cool. He knew it was a lower level technique, but it still would help raise their strength, if even by a tiny bit. 

"We have around thirty swordsmen." Number either answered. He had a list of all the DPS in the guild. 

"Okay, once I make copies of this, I will hand over thirty to you to give to the members. Make sure they learn it immediately." Ryu said before putting the technique in his inventory. When he did, he spotted the token that would make any city, town, or village in a starting area his.

"I guess I should head to Flim Village next." Now that the oversized chicken was dead, He could go about doing the new tasks at hand. As he was lost in thought, Chi came up behind him and hugged him. "What are you going to do now?" 

"Heading to Flim Village after we get everyone back to Roland, want to come?" Ryu asked.

"Mmm… It's been a while since we did things, just the two of us in game." Chi smiled. They had been so busy with the guild as of late that they had no time to spend together with just the two of them. 

"Alright then, let's gather everyone and head back after loot is distributed." Ryu said as he pulled Chi from behind him to his front and hugged her. Chi giggled and nuzzled her nose into his chest. 

"Ryu, I hate to disturb you two when you are having your intimate time, but all the items have been given out by roll." FingerSandwhich had a guilty expression as he came over to announce things had already given out. Luckily it went smoothly as most of it was just crafting material. The few items that were usable that did drop were quickly given out to some of the lower levels.

"Alright then, let's all head back!" Ryu got everyone gathered together before heading out. The trip back would take a few days, but it should go much smoother than the trip there since they were not benign followed. Although, Ryu still told everyone to be on guard just in case of an ambush.

As Serenity was making their way back to Roland, In a guild house inside Roland, Gene's face was pitch black. "Why!? Why is it that it is always Serenity this Serenity that or Ryu this Ryu that!?" 

"Guild Leader, we just need time to build up our forces." One of the generals of Golden Sword suggested.

"Hah! I know! How goes the report on finding out how to become a clan? Has the team gotten back to us yet?" Gene asked. He would not dwell on how things stood for now. He wanted to keep a low profile after embarrassing himself fighting Serenity. He never expected it was all filmed by the developers. After making such a mistake, he would need to do a lot to redeem his guild's glory. And bring it back to being number one once again.

"They have reported back and have not been able to find anything out. But they have found out that Serenity has a guild house in Westfall City." The Golden Sword general answered.

"That is a given with how strong they are. Ryu alone probably went to buy the guild house. For now, stay low and do not get involved with them. Also, watch out for that guild, The Queen's Throne. That player Beauty is not a pushover. She knew what she was doing. It was just her guild was not strong enough yet. But if it does get stronger, they may end up being big contenders  in the central area." Gene had more than just Serenity to worry about, but he knew he had to step up his game and grow stronger to take out Serenity and also defend against The Queen's Throne since their guild master is a sneaky one.

[World Announcement! The guild Ice Palace has gotten the first kill on the world boss Wolf King Rommik. Respawn for World boss is 30 days...]

"It seems Ice Palace is trying to stay ahead of the game as well." Gene frowned. It seemed he had a lot of competition. Even their guild ranking dropped to eight. Now the top five consisted of Serenity in first, Ice Palace second, Fire Emblem third, The Diviners fourth, and the new fifth place Death's Touch. "Search for a world boss. We need to kill one to in order to reclaim a few ranking spots." 

"I will send people out immediately!"

"Guild Leader…." Three people were kneeling on the floor staring at Beauty, who was sitting on a freshly crafted throne within their guild house. "I am the queen of this guild, not guild leader… You are to refer to me as Your Majesty!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The young man who spoke yelled out.

Beauty didn't even look at them as she turned to one of her personal guards and said: "Take that out." 

The guard nodded and took out a box. Inside of it was three vials of some kind of black concoction. "I have no idea what the effects of this new potion is that I made a few days ago while tinkering around with some plants I had never heard of. As punishment for screwing up my plans and running off on your own, I will now have the three of you drink it so I can see what its usage is." 

The three young men looked at Beauty in horror, wondering how she could say such a blatant lie like not knowing what it does since after creating it, the effects were shown! But they had no chance to say anything when their mouths were forcefully opened and the contents of the vials were poured down their throats. "Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!"

The three young men all yelled out in horrific pain screams as their skin quickly began to melt away. Skin muscles, all of it was melting away, leaving nothing behind but bones. Beauty looked at the young men who were nothing more than skeletons and smiled. "The undead potion that makes people obedient to the crafter of the potion is not bad. Select forty seven more people to turn into undead. It is really amazing what this game is allowing me to do. Hahaha!"
