My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start Chapter 117 – Six-in-one Mask

“Envy, what are you doing? Why did you give the mask to this person? Are you crazy?” Envy’s companions behind her shouted. However, Envy turned a deaf ear. She just turned her head to look at everyone with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

“I’m not crazy; you guys are the ones who are crazy! Don’t forget; the Demoness Bandit Gang used to be a church before they became a bandit gang. But now I see that you guys have fallen from devout believers to real bandits!”

The women gasped as Envy continued to say, “No matter what you think, I only have one goal—to reassemble the masks and listen to the teachings of the Primordial Demoness again! And this person can fuse masks, which means that he is the one chosen by the Demoness.”

She turned around again; Envy lowered her head.

“Young Master Watson, I’m Envy. I’m willing to be your most loyal servant and help you get the remaining masks.”

“What is this?”

Watson was stunned; the enemy had experienced internal strife and then a betrayal.

He thought he would obtain the remaining mask through his continuous fusion of magic to intimidate the enemy. However, he had not expected that the other party would take the initiative to place the mask in front of him and even wanted to be his subordinate.

Did they want to trick him? Perhaps they wanted to take advantage of his carelessness to stab him?

Allen and the others, who were not far away, and the manor owners were also dumbfounded.

What had happened?

“The leader of the Demoness Bandit Gang is defecting to the enemy. Did they discover Watson’s identity as the border count’s illegitimate child, just like I did?”

Sven stared at the scene with his eyes wide open. He could not help but think that. However, he felt that something was not right.

That should not be the case. The Demoness Bandit Gang’s predecessor was a large organization. Furthermore, he saw the Demoness Bandit Gang summon a platinum-tier Primordial Demoness projection. They should not be afraid of the border count, who was also a platinum-tier mage.

Since the battle was over, would they get some praise?

The group of manor owners thought about that. The primary purpose of their presence was to supplement Watson’s goal and to showcase his strength. They felt that they had fulfilled their responsibilities and got closer to him at the same time.

“Young Master Watson is too strong. He has conquered the most powerful bandit gang at the border in such a short period,” a manor owner said.

Not far away from him, another manor owner said, “Well said. I’ll add one more point! This is really an easy battle. It would be even better if my arm weren’t broken.”

Half of their praises were exaggerated, and the other half came from the bottom of their hearts.

A small number of them had died, while most of them were only slightly injured. That was the cost they had to pay to wipe out the bandit gangs at the border. It was an impressive battle record.

Allen was the proudest among those people. He stood in front of the crowd with his hands on his hips; he looked very pleased with himself.

“See, what did I say? I told you that my young master could deal with these people easily. If I went with him, I would only cause trouble! As you can see, they didn’t even need to make a move. They were conquered by Young Master’s domineering aura. My admiration for the young master gets deeper every day.”

Allen heaved a sigh of relief discreetly. He had felt very nervous when Watson fought against the five leaders of the Demoness Bandit Gang by himself. He had made up his mind to rush forward to help Watson if something were to go wrong. Fortunately, Watson managed to escape the danger by himself too.

The people around him, including Sven, acted as if they did not hear him.

Meanwhile, at Watson’s location.

Envy turned around to face her companions after she revealed her actual appearance. Her body was covered with black flames, and her fiery red eyes were cold.

“The god’s chosen one has been found. I hope that all of you will hand your mask to him and submit to Master Watson obediently! Otherwise, all of you are enemies of the Primordial Demoness. You are traitors. Greed, I’m talking about you!”

Greed’s mask flickered non-stop as it showed the excitement in her heart when she was singled out.

She was unwilling to give up the mask on her face.

It was just as Envy had said; they had already fallen from devout believers to filthy thieves. The change was due to the power brought by the Great Sin Mask.

However, one had to pay the price to obtain any power. The mask gave them strength, but at the same time, it also affected their hearts and controlled their emotions.

“How can you be so greedy? Are you not willing to hand over the mask? Does this mean that rather than getting the masks fused, you want to keep it for yourself?”

The black flames on Envy’s body became denser.

Greed rubbed her fingers, and a few golden coins appeared on her fingertips. However, the runes carved on the coins were not quite the same as those from that time. Instead, they looked like they were ancient coins.

She held the coins and thought for a while before finally putting them down. Then, finally, she placed her hand on her face with great difficulty and used great strength to tear off the mask to reveal the face of an ordinary woman with sparse eyebrows and pale skin.

Her name was Greed. She sought out all the precious things in the world. Nothing fascinated her more than shiny gold treasures. However, no matter how precious the treasures, they were not as valuable as her life.

“Envy, you are too stubborn! Alright, you win. I choose to hand over the mask and submit myself to Master Watson.”

In the end, she joined the Demoness Bandit Gang and became one of the higher-ups. However, she had wanted to climb up the ranks for benefits.

Envy was different from her. They said that she was once a believer of the Demoness Church before its dissolution. At that time, the Demoness Bandit Gang had not been established yet.

“Very well, you have made a wise choice!”

The flame elf named Envy walked up to Greed and took the mask from her hand. Then, she handed it to Watson respectfully.

“Master Watson, you have collected six masks; only Pride’s mask is left. After that, you can fuse them to complete the platinum-tier equipment—the Great Sin Mask. Pride is currently at the Mage Guild in Monte Town. Don’t worry, it will take three days, but I will find her and help you obtain the last mask.”

“Three days is too long. How about one day?” Watson asked casually. He wanted to know if Envy really wanted to help him or if she was setting a trap to harm him.

“Yes, Master Watson, I will try my best!” Envy gritted her teeth. She was in a difficult position, but she still responded forcefully.

“Your companion wants to submit to me. What do you think? Do you want to join us?” Watson held two masks in his hands and looked around him.

The women hesitated for a long time. Then, finally, Greed sighed and knelt, followed by Wrath. They knelt unwillingly.

The last to do that was Sloth. They closed their pure white eyes and lowered their heads helplessly.

Envy had betrayed them, and she knew them well. That put them at a disadvantage if they were to fight against Watson.

If they did not surrender, they would die. On the other hand, if they yielded, then they still had a chance to live, so it was not a difficult decision.

Furthermore, they were very curious about Watson’s fusion method. They had tried everything, but it had been useless. They would not act rashly before Watson restored the Great Sin Mask.

When everyone submitted to him, Watson had already begun to fuse with the remaining two masks.

“System, activate fusion.”

As soon as he said that, the two masks in his hands turned into rays of white light and fused with the mask on his face. The shape of the mask had changed from a ferocious beast to a gentle outline. That change was even more obvious.

At that moment, the appearance of the mask was almost impossible to see. It was like skin as thin as a cicada’s wings; it fitted Watson’s face perfectly.

It was a woman’s face, so beautiful that it was suffocating.

At the same time, turbid and illusory eyeballs appeared on Watson’s body. They opened and closed; it made everyone felt as if they would be petrified. It was the same as the eyes of the Primordial Demoness. Then, the attributes of the six-in-one mask appeared in front of him.
