Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith
Mission Call

The next day Riko woke up with her whole body in pain. Especially her joints in the upper body. His shoulders, elbows, back to waist felt like he was about to break. It seems like all day yesterday Riko has been pushing herself too much. At that young age he felt very fragile because of his poorly trained body.

“Seriously, I have to increase my vitality by my stamina. Jompo really be a person,” his grunt while walking downhill. One hand massages the waist that feels sore as well as painful.

Riko was about to take a shower when her phone rang. Riko was lazy to open it. Maybe Tera, or her parents, or Jaka and the others, who since a few days ago were indeed avoided by Riko out of embarrassment. Even so Riko still forced herself to glance at the notifications of her phone.

Riko was flabbergasted. The notification turned out to be an email notification about the dungeon's next hunting mission. Riko is reportedly already listed as one of the members of the hunting team!

Repeatedly Riko read the e-mail notification just to make sure that her eyes did not read wrong. But in accordance with his initial understanding, Riko was already registered with the dungeon hunting team in Cerme Cave. A dungeon break appeared in the area and had to be closed today by five players in the hunting team including Riko.  

To Riko's astonishment read the notice many times. Obviously he was not at all trying to register as a team of hunters. Even if he did it unconsciously, there should be a digital trace on his phone. Yet all is nil. His phone was clean, and his memory was clear. He did not apply to become a member of the hunting team that day. In fact, he was also not interested in agreeing to Tera's invitation to invite him into his cleaning team again. No. gabe. Riko was too tired that day to do such activities.

In her dilemma, Riko decided to ignore the email. Her brain decided that maybe it was just spam or a prankster who wanted to tease her. Riko regained her heart and prepared to take a shower. His phone rang once more as he was about to stand up. This time a phone call.

“What the hell,” murmur interrupted.

Unknown number. Riko hesitated to lift it, but was also curious. The call came just after an email about his role as a hunting team. Riko raised the call in the end.

“Halo?” sapa flat.

“Lo has no intention of escaping, right?” a cunning voice that Riko was very familiar with was heard greeting at the end of the call.

Riko was stunned for a moment. “Rangga?” asked Riko with eyebrows linked.

In what order did that one human call him. Whatever he had planned was definitely only aimed at harming him. Riko has paved the way Rangga thought.

“Jam eight later, I'm waiting for you at the Academy,” said Rangga as if he did not care about Riko's celebration.

“Ngapain?” riko asked no more.

Rangga sounded snorting full of ridicule. “Yes, I just want to give you a chance to try to enter as a team of dungeon hunters. But I guess you're not interested. If so, I drop the recommendation. Let others change lo,” said Rangga blatantly.

Riko frowned again while linking two strange events this morning. He quickly reopened an email from the Academy on his phone. Riko again read carefully and at the end of the email, Riko finally found Rangga Sasmita's name as one of the members of the hunting team with him.

Rangga was heard laughing behind the phone. “Yeah, I just feel sorry for you yesterday. Though he said that you were a high-level player in Genesis. It's just a coward in the real world. Well, the character of people in real life likes to be faked if in cyberspace. Yaudah, if you do not want to accept my kindness this time let others change,” said Rangga sarcastically.

“Wait!” riko stopped the enemy from hanging up the phone.

One hundred percent Riko believes Rangga must be planning something against him. Even so a good opportunity like this was extremely rare. He can enter the dungeon as a team of hunters who kill monsters. Riko might be able to raise his level quickly, as well as gain a lot of experience. It seems like the opportunity is worth trying, even if you have to risk your own safety in the hands of Rangga who has a malicious plan. Riko was confident he could protect himself. There are three other players. There was no way Rangga would mess with her openly.

“OK. I want to join. At eight we meet at the Academy,” challenge Riko later.

“Good decision. You will not mengesel, Riko,” hiss Rangga with a very suspicious tone.

The next second the call was interrupted. Riko had not even had time to answer Rangga's annoying farewell. Riko did not care much. He was quite enthusiastic about doing a dungeon hunt. But he also had to be aware of any hidden plans Rangga.

There were still two hours before Riko's time to be in the Academy. It seems he had to postpone his plan to take a bath. Riko must get ready to become a blacksmith fighter. The Noctorious set was destroyed. He should have other decent weapons and armor. So while sitting on his old foam mattress, Riko called the system and told him to open the store features.

A vast hologram lay before Riko. Various panels with weapons and armor appear to meet the hologram. Riko sorted out but all the weapons were mostly swords, spears or arrows.

“System, find me an axe to blacksmith,” Riko orders later.

He might be able to use other weapons such as swords. However, the compatibility rate of the weapon with his job role as a blacksmith is very low. Therefore any weapon other than an axe would only produce a small amount of damage.

After following Riko's orders, the store's hologram panel brought up various types of axes ranging from simple wooden axes level one to Forger God’s Axe which had level 100. Riko can't wear both. He also chose a medium-level axe that he could use with his current level.

“Hmm .. because I'm still at level 17, so the maximum limit of weapons I can use is level thirty. So until I am at that level I have to use this axe,” muttered Riko while scrolling the hologram in front of him.

“This is suitable!” he yells at himself.

Riko touched one of the pictures of a bright red axe. Two knife eyes are large small in accordance with its function as a slash or cut weapon. His grip was made of simple sturdy steel.

“Wah crazy ... really expensive. This level axe period costs five hundred thousand Moonstone? This is what I cumpulin a hundred and twenty thousand Moonstone,” complained Riko annoyed.

"It's a pity if you have to buy an ax like this. Not to mention later the armor, continue footgear and accessories. But if I do not prepare anything, Rangga will definitely get a chance to do me harm," muttered Riko continued to rack his brain.
