Soul Fusion Online Chapter 53

Yuki sat back up and pulled Trisha into her arms. "The bath is still hot, so let's soak a bit, and then I will wash your hair and back."

"Mmm..." Trisha couldn't hide the smile on her face as she cuddled into Yuki's embrace. "Yuki… Can I umm… Come over after classes today?" Trisha's cheeks were red as she asked this. She even lowered her head, trying to hide it in Yuki's chest.

"Sure… I was planning to get a key made today anyway to give to you, so you can just come over any time you wanted." Yuki had already planned to ask Trisha to go out with her today, so there was no reason to say no, and now that Yuki knew Trisha was Chi, this made things easier as well. If something came up and she couldn't log in, she could easily let Trisha know.

"Hehe..." Trisha giggled. "This all feels so surreal. You have no idea how much of a lady killer you are on Ryu. Even in real life, your flirting skills are like maxed out."

Yuki did not know what to say. She couldn't remember any time she tried to flirt with anyone. She could only scratch her nose since she did not know what to say. "Alright, let's finish washing up and get dressed. I will dry your hair for you."

"Okay!" The two took their time as they continued to chat.

Only after drying off and putting on comfortable clothes, which consisted of long shirts and panties, did the two feel even better than before. Yuki sat on the bed with Trisha sitting on the floor between her legs as Yuki blow dried her hair.

"Yuki, how was it? I mean, last night as a man." Trisha could no longer hold back her question. She was really curious to know just how it felt to be a man.

Yuki's face turned completely red. "It was… New… Although I think it still feels better for a girl. But I can say it was a new experience..."

"I see... Well… It felt good for me too..." Trisha admitted. She leaned her head back and looked up at Yuki. "So what are we now? Are we just friends… Or something more?"

Yuki thought for a moment before teasingly saying: "Boyfriend and girlfriend?"

"Yuki, seriously." Trisha let out a sigh.

"We are whatever you wish to be. If you wish for us to be just friends, we will just be friends. If you wish for us to be a couple, then we are a couple. Trisha, I just want you to be happy. As long as you are happy, I will be happy as well."Yuki said honestly. This was how she truly felt.

Trisha gazed at Yuki's sincere eyes and smiled warmly at her. "I knew Yuki was the best. I want to be with Yuki and see where this new feeling will go. But Yuki, if you feel unhappy with us being together, let me know… I want you to be just as happy as you want me to be."

Yuki paused, drying Trisha's hair, and draped her arms over Trisha's shoulders as she bent forward, bringing her face in front of Trisha's. "Then I guess we both need to work hard to make sure we can both be happy."

Trisha smiled and reached up and wrapped her arms around Yuki's neck, and gave Yuki a peck on the nose. "I guess we do."

After finishing drying each other's hair, the two got dressed and cuddled together until it was time to go to class. "Yuki, let your hair down."

"Hmm?" Yuki was confused. She was in the process of doing up her hair as she normally did before going out.

"Well. You really have no need to hide your real identity, right? Just wear your hat and mask as normal but let your hair down. It would be very amusing to see how people react. Especially those girls who keep talking about how cute you are." Trisha's last words were her real objective; she just wanted those girls to stop ogling her Yuki.

Yuki chuckled and did as Trisha asked. She let her hair flow down from her hat. When the two got to school, although Trisha was hanging off of Yuki's arm as normal, the air was much different. And the looks they got were also much different.

"He was a girl!? Noo!" One girl yelled out in disappointment. It seemed like she had lost all the strength in her body as she slumped to the floor.

"Hehe! That will teach you to eye my Yuki." Hearing Trisha's words caused Yuki to chuckle.

Classes went by fast, and the two did not linger long as they hurried to the hardware store to get a key made. "Here." Yuki handed Trisha the freshly made key. "Now, you can come and go as you please."

"So you don't mind? What if I decided I want to come attack you." Trisha asked with a teasing look.

"Then I guess I am the one who asked for it." Yuki replied.

"Yes, you did. Oh! I should head home first. I want to get a few things before I come over. Is that okay?" Trisha asked, her hands behind her back as she bent over slightly.

Yuki nodded and said: "That's fine. I got a few things to look up anyway."

"Okay, then I will see you in a bit! Be careful getting home." Trisha quickly waved a cab and hurried off. She lived in the opposite direction than Yuki, so they could only take separate cabs.

Yuki smiled as she flagged a cab down and went back home. As soon as she did, she did her normal ritual and got herself comfortable. She set up her laptop on her new coffee table and sat on the floor instead of the small two seater couch that Tina had bought her. "Let's see… I really need to get back at those two assholes who tried to kill Trisha and me."

Yuki logged into the website and was about to head to the forums when she saw an update log post on the front page. "Oh? There was an update today?"

Let's see… The patch notes were not in text but were actually a video. She hit play to see the CEO of Soul Fusion Online standing behind a podium...

"Hello to all of those in the Soul Fusion Online community. Since the release of SFO a month ago, I am happy to say that we have seen a surge of new players as well as new investors investing in the company. The world of SFO has quickly become a world of its own, no less real than the real world itself. Well, I guess calling it real is a bit far fetched, but this is as close to creating a parallel world as we will ever get with today's current technology.

"Let me start off by thanking everyone out there who has bought and played SFO. Those who now use the game as a source of income and those who are investing into the game so we can make it even better and more realistic.

"The reason for this patch is because we have two players who have officially started the path of cultivation. Yes, you heard me right. Although it was never clearly stated. The game of SFO is a game where you can cultivate. While you have the ability to level up and reach the same level of cultivation as those who cultivate, you will be lacking in many things. While leveling is faster, cultivation is more beneficial and will give certain perks as one takes the longer path to reach the peak. I will not say who these players are but just know they are already one step ahead of you. Cultivation methods are not easy to find, and not many would be able to get their hands on one, so make sure you search every nook and cranny of the world since the world of SFO has many secrets that are waiting to be found.

"Now, because we now have our first players who can cultivate, 2 major options have been opened up. One of which is world notifications. Any time an event happens, all players will now be notified worldwide instead of just the area they are in. This also includes phone notifications, which you can start receiving once you download the SFO trading app.

"The second major thing is you can now set bounties on players. I know some of you really wish to kill a few players for the evil acts they have committed. You can set bounties at the new mercenary guild. When a bounty is set, as long as the bounty is over a certain amount, it will be issued globally through a world notification. So for those players who think they are safe after committing a crime, just wait and see. Your luck might not be as good as you think.

"For smaller additions, there will now be monster hordes where players will need to defend towns, or those towns will fall to the monsters. Players can also now buy property and start their own sects and clans. The requirements to start a sect has also been lowered... "

As the CEO's voice continued on in the background Yuki's lips curled up into an evil smile. "It seems my two little friends will soon be the center of attention…."
