Soul Fusion Online

As the area lit up once again, Yuki found herself in a small blue room with white lights flashing by her. "This place is…?"

"Welcome to Soul Fusion Online. You are now in the fifteen minute tutorial that will give you a quick rundown of the basic mechanics of the game. This will be split up into three parts. The first part is basic movement. The movement in game will reflect your own abilities that you hold in the real world. This means it is very important to develop your real life skills in order to become one of the strongest players in game. Without real world abilities, you will fall far behind the others.

"The second part is a system overview. You will learn the ins and outs of the system as well as what each button and icon do and an explanation on how world drops work and how death works.

"The third and final part of this tutorial, we will put everything together, and you will be given a basic tutorial on fighting. Your first test will begin now…."

Yuki found her surroundings changing, and she suddenly found herself in a town that seemed like ancient China with how the buildings looked. What amazed her was how realistic everything looked. "This is really amazing."

"I am glad you think so!" A voice came from behind Yuki, startling her. She quickly turned around to see a young girl standing there. The clothes she was wearing looked very fitting for this setting. It was a blue Hanfu with white trim. Her blonde hair was rolled up into two little buns giving her an oriental vibe.

"Umm… Hello." Yuki said, giving a small bow of her head.

"Hello! I am your tutorial trainer Mi. I will not waste time because no one likes these kinds of tutorials, so I will get right to it. As you are already able to turn around without issue, this saves some time. Please walk to the end of this road to the fountain and sit down. Then get up and run back. Once you have done that, we can then set you up with your starter gear. I am sure you do not wish to run around naked for too long now, do you? Although for a handsome young man like you, I would not mind it." Mi blushed slightly, averting her eyes but slowly taking peeks back and forth at Yuki. Yuki's only thought to this was: 'This game has perverted NPCs?'

Not wanting to waste time or walk around naked, Yuki did as she was told and quickly completed the task. She did, however, feel that moving around in a body that was not hers was quite amazing and seemed very natural. Even the extra height she added on did not affect her abilities. To do a quick test, she checked her flexibility, and it matched what she had in the real world.

"Hehe, it is good you are enjoying yourself. Now then, let's get some clothes on you, handsome. They say clothes make the man, so be sure to wear clothes, or you may just end up with quite a few girls chasing you down the street." Mi snickered and waved her hand. A system notice popped up in front of Yuki.

[Received Beginner box!]

"Now to go over the system information. This is all based on thought. To start, it is best to use a word activation, but once you get used to it, you can just think of what you want to open in your mind, and it will open. So to start, let's have you say inventory." Mi instructed.

Yuki nodded and said: "Inventory." When she did, a menu popped up and showed thirty inventory slots and with the image of a box taking up one of those slots. Below there was a trash bin icon and a line showing how much gold she had.

"Good! Now go ahead and open the box. When you do, the box will disappear, and the items inside will fill up some of your slots. Equip your items after they appear" As Mi said this, she was doing a few circles around Yuki as if she was trying to imprint Yuki's figure into her mind.

Yuki did what she did best and ignored the strange NPC as she tapped the icon and made the box open. What spawned in her inventory was a grey colored shirt, pants, and boots. Along with it was a wooden sword called a training sword. Altogether the items gave 4 to Defense. The chest gave the most at 2 defense while the boots and pants gave 1 defense. As for the training sword, it was a wooden sword that gave 3 attack Power. Yuki opened the tab to the side that said equipment, and a window slid out, revealing equipment slots for the entire body, fingers, wrist, and neck. Along with a few extra slots for special items. Next to this was a status screen that showed all her basic stats. Currently, without equipment on her stats looked like this.

After equipping all the items, she received only defense, and Attack Power went up.

"Not bad! Dashing almost. Sadly these clothes do not bring out your true charm, but I am sure as your level rises, you will be able to get some better looking items and look every bit the man you are. Anyway, as you can see, after equipping the items I gave you, the defense and attack power went up a few points due to the additional attributes these items give you. Even though these items are only beginner duds, they are not too shabby if I do say so myself!" Mi looked at Yuki, her eyes big and wide as if she was expecting something, but Yuki still ignored her and waited for the NPC to get on with things. She was afraid if she spoke, she might make the NPC mad at her because she actually wanted to know how these so called beginner duds, as Mi had called it, with all their holes and patched work done to them, along with the heavy musty smell were considered not too shabby. She was a poor person and mended her own clothes. Although her clothes looked alright, even she would never call her clothes not too shabby but pure shabby, and the clothes she was currently wearing in game were more like dirty rags someone tossed in the trash.

Seeing that Yuki was not going to praise her and even looked at the clothes with a strange expression, Mi cleared her throat and continued: "Ahem… Anyway, let's continue with the inner workings of the menu system."
