Soul Fusion Online

In a warehouse near the Qin family estate on a secret lower level, a group of around one thousand in total a combined force of mercenaries, Qin side family members, and all two hundred members of Serenity's main guild were in attendance. On a stage, standing in front of these people were Ryu and Chi. They were surrounded by the generals of Serenity.

Ryu cleared his throat as he looked out over the crowd and began to speak: "Today is the long awaited day. For the people of Serenity, it is a chance to become something much greater than we are now. For the people of the Qin side families, it is a day where they take control of their own lives. And for the mercenaries who took on this job, it is a day to make a large sum of money.

"As I have promised for all the mercenaries, if any of you fall today, I will be sure to take care of your families and not allow them to suffer. I have signed a contract on this, so you do not need to worry about that. I will ask that you stay clear of the man beside Emma Qin." Ryu turned and nodded at GreenHat, who turned on a magic device that the Serenity research and development team made. It was nothing more than an image storage device that took pictures and then displayed them into the air. Ryu had people use it to take images of the man next to Emma's side.

"This man is the one you need to watch out for the most. He is said to be in the nine souls forming realm. The ones who will need to take him head on are myself and Chi. Emma will also be our main target. Our job here is not to cause a massacre. Only kill those who attack you. If they surrender, use the binds you have all been given to secure them. We will deal with them after we have accomplished our mission.

"Do not think that just because we are many that this will be an easy task. The actual number of main family members is not known even to the side families. When we go in, act with caution. If you see someone wounded, try to pull them out instead of advancing. We want everyone to come back alive. I mean it. I do not wish for any of you to die.

"I will do my all to try to keep any of you from dying as well." Ryu finished what he had to say, then stepped back and let Chi take over.

"As Ryu said, we do not wish for any of you to die. So make sure you commit the following to memory. Our two main targets and only targets are Emma Qin and her father. As for the man in black, we kind of hope to keep him alive. If he is willing, we hope he will become part of Serenity. Make sure you commit him to memory as you do not want to fight him head on. If you see him, stay clear of him. We do not want needless deaths.

"Each one of you has been given a certain kind of weapon and shown how to use it. As a refresher... These weapons do not work on magic, they work on soul qi. You need to inject your soul qi into the chamber and charge it up for each shot. The good thing about these is that you can charge them ahead of time. But I must tell you that they are also bound to Ryu. So if you try to take one home with you after the mission, it will explode, taking your life and those around you with it." Chi lied… The weapons that they were given were indeed bound to Ryu and couldn't go outside Westfall city, but they would not kill anyone. They would just break and fry all the internal magic chips that were made to build them.

These were no different than the laser pistols that could be found in the real world. Except these needed to be charged before each shot and were to be more of a trump card for those fighting than an actual all out weapon. The power stored inside could unleash a blast of soul qi that jumped two stages, making it enough for a person to use as last resort desperation shot to try to get away. That is only if the shot lands.

After Chi finished what she had to say, Margie finally came forward as he was going to be the main leader of the main force alongside the numbers backing him up. Ryu and Chi were to take on the big fish as they were the highest cultivation, and Ryu was basically unkillable with Chi right there behind him. Margie smiled, and most awaited his normal flamboyant voice that he always used when he called out "Darling~" But instead, they were met with something that sounded like a dragon's roar. "Okay, you little shits! You will follow my orders to the last letter. If not, and you are from my guild, I will kick you without a second thought! All others, if you do not listen, then you are just asking to die! I will say this now, when I say jump, you better fucking well jump! I will not run out to try to save anyone. Team leaders, get your groups together and make sure everyone is equipped with the correct gear and necessities!"

Ryu and Chi looked at Margie, who was roaring away in shock. Especially Ryu, who just said to make sure to pull back the injured! Ryu sighed and shrugged his shoulders. "Well, whatever. What happens, happens..."

With everything ready, an army of around one thousand strong began to move…

Outside the city of Westfall, Clara stood on a tall hill that oversaw the village. In her hands held up to her eyes was another item that Ryu had made. A pair of binoculars. "Ryu, I don't understand why you sent a message for me to stand on this hill to watch the Qin residence. All I see is iidots coming and going since I got he…. What the hell is that massive army!?"
