Soul Fusion Online

"Shower later, help me here!" WhiteLotus yelled out. 

"Ahh, sorry!" Rose quickly went back to firing her spells at the original spider.

Ryu felt something was wrong when he noticed the size of this spider compared to the other spider. He looked around up at the treetops, and his face paled when he saw so many red glowing eyes staring back at him. "Rose, Violet, keep on whatever target WhiteLotus is on. I will do my best to handle the adds. Chi, help me with adds."

"On it! [Dance of the Fairy Blade!]" Chi had already sensed the numerous amounts of spiders up in the trees as soon as they arrived. She did not attack until she knew what Ryu wanted to do about it, but now that he said to take them out, then she would. Dance of the fairy blade was a skill that used sword swings from the sword dance to fire off what are called sword beams, arched white lights that act as a ranged attack. It was a channeled attack that used stamina. For each second she danced, she would lose 2 stamina. This meant she could only use it for a total of fifty seconds. 

Green blood sprayed down from the treetops covering Ryu and the girls. WhiteLotus, Rose, and Violets, experience bars were rising rapidly. In just under a minute, twenty corpses fell from the trees, and at the same time, the white spotted spider that was much bigger than the rest died as well. WhiteLotus stayed on guard as she asked: "Is it over!?"

"Chi?" Ryu knew Chi had better hearing than him, so he could only ask her if she could hear anything.

"I think we are good." Chi replied. 

"Alright, ten minute break." Ryu walked over to a large stone that was not covered in blood and sat down. Chi walked over next to him as well. They were both covered in green smelly blood. "What\'s up with the monkeys?"

"They are still watching. There is no hostility. When we killed the white spotted spider, they seemed to be jumping for joy." Chi fell into thought for a moment before continuing: "It\'s almost as if they were happy that the spider died."

"This could be. If the spider was capturing their kin, that may be the case." Ryu felt that the monkeys were rooting for them to win. If they were, as Chi said, jumping for joy after the spider died, then they probably wanted the spider to vanish from these woods.

"I kinda wish I could take a bath." Chi said as she pulled on her armor that was soaked in the green blood.

"Hehe, did you want to take a special bath?" Ryu asked teasingly. 

Chi blushed and leaned over and whispered: "If you want, the next time we bathe, you can use your tongue to..." 

Ryu\'s eyes opened wide and blushed from Chi\'s words, but he still nodded his head. "Then let\'s do that. I can\'t let my little wife run out on me just because of my condition. If I still have the means to please her, then I will do it." 

"Hehe… it\'s a promise then." Chi lowered her head bashfully. Ryu couldn\'t help but find her to be very cute. 

"Hey, what are you two talking about? Why does it seem to be something naughty, hmmm?" WhiteLotus walked over and immediately picked up on the naughty vibes in the air. 

"What\'s this? Did WhiteLotus want to join too? Should I tell GreenHat about this?" Ryu asked teasingly.

"What!? No! Fine, I won\'t joke like that, geez. Trying to get me in trouble with him." WhiteLotus huffed. Ryu let out a laugh and didn\'t say more since Chi was glaring at him as if she was ready to kill him. 

The group rested for almost ten minutes when Chi\'s ears suddenly perked up. "One of the monkeys is coming over."

"Should we attack?" Violet asked.

"It doesn\'t seem to be aggressive." Chi replied, feeling a bit confused. She did not know if monsters could be friendly or not.

"You three stay here, Chi, protect them in case we get ambushed." Ryu said as he got up. He patted Chi on the head as he walked towards the now visible monkey. These monkeys had four arms and had purple fur. They were called Purple Spring monkeys. 

Ryu walked over, stepping over the dead bodies of the spiders until he came upon a clear spot. The monkey stood a few meters away, watching him cautiously. Thinking for a moment, Ryu put his sword away to show he was not going to harm the monkey, which seemed to work. The monkey came a little closer. "OOooo! Oo! OOo!"

Ryu sighed, knowing he couldn\'t understand but was surprised when the monkey suddenly reached out, trying to hand him something. With the monkey being just as tall as him and its hands being almost as big as his head, the thing in the monkey\'s hand was quite big. It was a large rock that seemed to be shrouded in a blue mist. Ryu could feel the soul qi emanating from it. 

"For me?" Ryu asked by gesturing to the stone then pointing to himself. The monkey then gave a nod before crying  out: "Ooo!"

Ryu smiled and reached out for the stone.

*Ding!*

Ryu\'s eyes went wide seeing the description. "Good stuff." Ryu bowed his head to the monkey as he said: "Thank you."

"Ooo! OOOO!!" The monkey jumped around happily. At the same time more monkeys of varying sizes came out of the tree line all yelling excitedly. The first monkey grabbed Ryu by the hand and pulled him as if saying come with me. 

Ryu chuckled and turned his head yelling back at the girls: "It\'s fine, come on! " 

The girls looked somewhat confused but quickly followed after Ryu before they lost sight of him.
