Chapter 18.5: Felicity’s New Event Announcement!
The screen flickers as the light fades into darkness, revealing within the figure of a tall and domineering woman.
Music plays, her name flashes on the screen. "Felicity In The Chimera."
Her ears were not at eye level to the sides, but instead she had large cat-like ones on top of her short black hair. Her eyes were of different colors, one glowing a holy gold light, while the other was of a deep dark purple that threatens to suck all within its sight.
She wore tight dark-blue shirt that hugged her body, ripped on the sides, with white fur coming out from the inside.
The intro ends.
The scene cuts away to a couch, the wall behind lined with many posters of games and movies.
Felicity rushed in from the very back, jumping over the couch while flapping her mismatched wings. One of them was an angelic white wing, shaped like that of a swan, while the other was a dark demonic one, of a simillar construction to that of a dragon's but torn and battered in some places.
She crossed her two goat-like legs, her two thin tails ending in a tip lined with rainbow feathers whipped around to the side in way that was almost too distracting.
She raised her right hand, which was fully scaled like that of a dragon's, complete with razor-sharp claws. The other hand being that of a cyborg's, but sleek and refined instead of being bulky.
"Err, Hello... People!" Her voice came out as cute and energetic, a big contrast from her appearance, or perhaps not, "Felicity here! How are you all doing? I'm doing fine! I'm totally not wasting my time being too engrossed in SOU!"
Of course, no one responded. This was a video after all.
"Souls Unlimited Online, a release I've been looking forward to so long! It's already been so fun, and I'm up to level 15 already! If you want to see my progress, then Kawaii Valkjure was streaming the entire time we were playing. She really likes to show off, hahaha!"
Felicity then cocked her head to the side as if she were listening to someone speak.
"Hmm... Oh... Really...? Oh my!" She turned back to the camera and started shouting, "And here were have it folks! A new event is just about to go out in SOU! I've been contacted specifically by the team behind it in order to give the announcement. How can I pass that up!"
She took out a piece of paper from her jeans and raised it up against the light as if checking if it's a couterfeit.
"Aha! The new event... What do you think is the new event? A tournament? Arena? Battleroyale? Easter Egg hunt? A Dpecial Campaign? Something else? Go on and give me your best guesses down below, but ah, no cheating! I am watching! Always watching."
She played fiddled with her own tails for a few moments, giving her viewers some time to get out some good guesses.
"Time's Up! Alright!" Felicity took a deep breath, looking at the piece of paper she's been handed. The sound of a drumroll suddenly echoed in the background "And the new event is....... The Primordial Creation Bonus Event!"
She suddenly got up from her floating chair and started prancing around. "Alright, okay. Let me explain. From the very beginning."
Felicity threw out the piece of paper of paper she'd been reading from and coughed a couple of times, as if she were now to start speaking from her heart.
"Souls Unlimited Online, a constructed world that has only recently emerged by the efforts of the many faceless Gods. Thanks to how recent this event is, the divine power used for the construction still remain!"
She gestured wildly with her hands, her heterochromatic eyes were glossy and wet. What would come out from them really if she were to cry? Normal water tears, or something else?
"This Divine Power from the Gods form and coalesces in the souls of the world, crystalizing. Upon death, some may just drop." Felicity winked.
"And so players! Gamers!" Her wings spread wide, her arms welcoming, "Kill! Slaughter! Get those unfinished broken shards of divine power at all costs! Some may drop for any creature you kill! You get me? ANY."
Felicity took a deep breath, calming down.
"Though well, one thing I may or may not have failed to mention is that you can't really use this divine power for anything. Us lowly mortals can do nothing with it. But, we can use it to trade for stuff, and MY am I excited about that! On the higher end of the event, there is an insectoid house that you can buy, and I am just IN LOVE with it! Part of my Unique Skill allows me to receive extra currency in-game based on views and stuff, I'm just saying. See, people normally won't share that information, but I am telling you. so please share this video around, like, comment, and subscribe! I need that Insectoid base!"
Felicity made a peace sign, brushed it against her lips, and then blew a kiss from there.
"Perhaps an insectoid mod to my body as well... but where? And how? Having different feet always feels off..."
