Chapter 119 - Jasmine’s First Love
After storing the blueprint, Chi then pulled out a stack of designs for the garden. "These are what the gardeners drew up after much consideration."
"Umm... Chi... Why is there a half naked statue of me in every one of these designs?" Ryu asked as he looked at the images of his stone self that made him look like a mighty warrior.
"You are the guild leader, so of course, there will need to be a statue that is done in your image! I will not allow you to take it out! I only need help with how the path leading up to the statue should look!" Chi was being stubborn because she wanted everyone to know just how handsome and cool their guild leader was! They could only gaze upon his statue and worship him while she was the only one who could have the real Ryu all too herself!
Ryu didn't really think it was necessary, but when he saw that Chi was not going to budge, he could only let out a sigh and just let her do as he pleased. He looked at all the designs and went with what he thought looked best. "Let's go with this then."
"Alright!" Chi nodded and put away the blueprint Ryu chose before putting her hand out to Him. "Money."
"Oops, I forgot!" Ryu forgot that Chi did not have much money on her. He had always carried all the money. He took out a bag of coins from his inventory and handed it to Chi. "There is one hundred Platinum inside. It should be enough to hire whoever you need."
"More than enough!" Chi said as she took the bag. "I will handle this. Go back to Flim Village and buy a property there and get things set up while I take care of this place."
"Alright, I will message you when I find a place." Ryu said as he pulled Chi into his embrace and kissed her lips. Chi giggled as she slipped her tongue into his mouth. The two's tongues intertwined and a slow sensual kiss.
"Mm… Go before my animal instincts kick in." Chi said with reddened cheeks.
"Then I will be back after I have settled things there." Ryu said as he kissed Chi's lips once more.
"MMmm.." Chi hugged Ryu before pushing him away and backing up a few steps. She could already feel her body heating up, which was a bad sign. They had things to get done before they had to log out, so they couldn't be playing around like this.

"So this is that game called Soul Fusion Online? " Princess Jasmine asked her maid, who was holding two headsets.
"Princess, it is. It is said to be all the rage right now and that people are making billions of crowns by playing the game." The maid beside her answered. She kept her head lowered the entire time, not daring to look Princess Jasmine in the eye.
"Mmm! Then we will play together!" Princess Jasmine was not sure how to play the game, so she demanded the maid join her. This was also the reason why she had the maid buy two headsets.
Once she was logged in and registered to the game. She immediately made her character. She was someone who loved cats, so she made her character a beastkin from the cat race. Once she was happy with her creation, she hit the confirm button and was sent to the level selection screen. From there, she picked Flim Village as she had already decided with her maid that this would be their starting village.
As she finally opened her eyes and found herself in the center of the town by a large water fountain, she was quite amazed by the realism of the graphics. "Now, this is quite something."
Jasmine looked around and saw quite a few more people who had also just made their character. "Tilly! Tilly, where are you!?" Jasmine couldn't take waiting, so she decided to just yell for her maid.
"Miss!" A young human girl came running over and stood in front of Jasmine. "Miss, sorry it took me a few minutes to figure out the creation system. Miss Please call me Yuyu in game." Yuyu did not want her name all over the internet. She may only be a maid, but she still did not want people to know her real name.
"Humph! Now you wish to tell me what to do!? But fine. My name is Beauty. I mean, look at just how beautiful I am!" Beauty said in a narcissistic manner.
"Yes, Yes, you are very beautiful. Your long white hair matches your fair skin perfectly." Yuyu quickly said in a praising tone. She still had her habit of keeping her head lowered as she spoke to Beauty.
"Mmm! Good! You have good taste. Now let us… go…. " Beauty's eyes fell on the most handsome man she had ever seen in her life. Her heart began to race as she looked at this man. He was slim but had defined muscles that could be seen. His black hair and white skin contrasted well with his black clothes. Beauty had no idea what was coming over her as she stared at the man. Her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest. Her face was also growing hotter as her cheeks turned bright red.
"Miss, are you okay!?" Yuyu asked in a panic.
"I…" Beauty's eyes were locked on to the young man. She couldn't bring herself to look away. "I think I am in love..."
"In love!?" Yuyu suddenly yelled out. She has known her miss for a long, long time. She knew more than anyone that her miss never thought of any man she had met as someone who was good enough for her. So for her to suddenly announce that she thinks she is in love was a real shock for Yuyu.
"Yes..." Beauty's eyes showed just how love sick she was as she gazed at the man walking away. It was only when the man was just about to leave her sight that she finally woke up from her daze. "Yuyu, come on we have to give chase!"
