Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith
Rangga Sasmita

As per the system notification, ten minutes later the dimensional portal opened in front of Riko. A few anxious-looking people immediately rushed in, one of them being Tera. The man looked very grateful to find Riko standing withered in front of the portal.

“Yes my goodness, Riko! You can miss it in the dungeon. You know how stressed I am because my team-child called one?” sergeant Tera who immediately hugged Riko grateful.

Several other blacksmith members also touched her and patted Riko on the back.

“You should thank Rhea. Sage from the company until he came here to open the gate. Trouble him lapelin all his magic power until finally this gate can open again,” continued Tera release his embrace.

Riko frowned confusedly. Isn't this gate open because Riko has defeated Baphomet? But he was so lazy to explain. Let's let people think that. He just wanted to go home and rest.

Finally Tera and the others flocked to take Riko out of the portal. The people from the company, including Rhea were standing in front of the portal while looking at her full of probes. One of the men in black who Riko recognized as Dimas, the person he met while registering as a legal player, came to him in a hurry.

“Riko Sanjaya? You all right? An hour later you were trapped in a dungeon. Did anything happen while you were in there?” ask Dimas.

Riko thought for a moment. It would be amazing if he told about his battle with Baphomet. But people would definitely not believe that a level F player seemed to have defeated a level 30 monster boss. If he does not want to be labeled as a liar, Riko is forced to show the Token of Apostole as proof. It could be that the government or people from the company actually snatched the rare material from him. Riko couldn't let that happen. And so, he decided to lie.

“Hmm .. no coke. I just wait like a bego inside,” replied Riko innocently.

Dimas seemed to be breathing rapidly. “Thank God it was. You if you need medical help can go directly to the ambulance that is there. The nurse can check your condition. There's a healer there, too. Female name Audrey who is the Priest of the company,” explained Dimas gave instructions.

Riko shook her head slowly. “I'm okay. Just want to go home and rest,” replied Riko quickly.

He had enough of the materials needed. A token with a gelam element and a very large Crystal bonus. There was nothing else Riko thought, whether it was a salary or a bit of a Crystal for her. All he wanted to do was lie down.

After confirming Riko's condition, Dimas finally went and spoke to the team from the company. Nothing else bothers Riko. He was left to walk with Tera towards their vehicle to return to Yogya. But their steps were suddenly blocked by a young man in a black red uniform: Rangga.

“Udah is weak, make everyone bother just. Do you think it's important? Rhea biarin lo should be stuck in a dungeon. Salah himself became a weak player,” taunted Rangga with a condescending look.

Rangga glanced at Tera while grunting disdainfully. “Suitable anyway, same grandpa-grandfather smell of the ground,” scorn.

Tera had gone up and was about to challenge Rangga. Riko prevented it. There is no point in making things with that human. Now he is also part of the hunting team. By status and strength, Rangga was superior to them.

“Thank you for the attention, Ngga. I'm okay anyway. Don't worry,” chirps Riko lightly. He refused to be provoked. Rangga did not know that RIko had gone through extraordinary things before. He even got rare materials. That satisfaction was enough to make Riko not provoked.

Riko's calm attitude actually made Rangga upset. The young man screeched angrily then brought his face closer to the ears of RIko.

“If you want to die in a dungeon, I kabulin. Just wait for the play date,” hiss Rangga with a cruel tone of voice.

Riko did not answer. He only observed Rangga who again distanced his face while grinning.

“What the hell is this kid?” tera's wrath was still filled with emotion.

Rangga snorted lightly and glanced at Tera. After that the young man turned around and left them.

“Udah, justin, Bang. Emang likes not clear him,” said Riko still observing the back of Rangga who walked away. He did not fully understand the threat of Rangga. But his premonition said that his nemesis was planning another bad thing. Riko was too tired to think. Therefore he will let Rangga behave as he pleases this time.

“You know that impolite boy, Rik?” tera asked with a disgusted expression.

“People are not important. No thought,” sahut Riko then invite Tera to continue their journey.

Riko did not know, in the future, the next meeting with Rangga would probably be the bloodiest meeting Riko had ever experienced during his time as a player.
