Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith

Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith
Forging Masters


After completing the dungeon raid in Merapi Crater, Riko's name became famous. The news that a F-level blacksmith managed to lead the team to defeat a dragon was quite shocking news.


Riko's phone was embroidered nonstop the day after the raid dungeon. Some of them were people who recruited him to carry out the dungeon annihilation together, or offered him entrance to their guild.


However, Riko has solidified his choice to create his own guild. And therefore, there were two important people that he had to contact before he officially registered his guild with a complete member.


The first person was Gema, the leader of the Ares Guild. He had to reject the Ares Guild bid as best he could so as not to cause chaos. Riko contacted Dirga, the Vice Guild Leader whose number he had stored.


“Hei, Rico. How's it? Said you abis nagging dragon,” welcome Dirga at the end of the call.


“Eh, yes. That is,” replied Riko accordingly.


“Mantab. Why don't you know if you want to raid a dungeon? We can help send players from the guild,” said Dirga.


And take all the valuable items in the guild? Don't dream. Riko thought to herself.


“Wah, it is not good if ngerepotin. I am also not a member of the Ares Guild,” replied Riko began directing the conversation.


“Not yet. After you sign the contract, you are automatically officially part of us.”


Riko took a deep breath. It's time to talk about what he needs to say. “Sorry, Dirga, but I don't think I can sign the contract. I thank you for being offered to enter the Ares guild, I just have my own plans,” said the young man as smooth as possible.


Dirga was silent for a while, until Riko thought the call was interrupted.


“Halo? Dirga's? You still there?” riko asked, breaking the silence.


A light voice sounded in response. “So what's your plan?” ask Dirga later.


“Oh that .. I might not be able to join the guild ares, because I think it would be an imbalance for other guilds. So I decided to make a contract of cooperation, outside the membership. I could be a weapons supplier to Ares' guild. Not bound as a member. That way I can be fairer as well as the other guilds. How?” Riko asked back.


Again, Dirga did not answer. It took a few seconds until Riko's interlocutor finally went to sleep.


“So you want to make a forging business? Not bad either. I have to admit you're also looking for opportunities. If you play the role of a vendor, your profits become more, yes. Makes sense anyway,” said Dirga while grunting slowly.


Riko laughed a little. “Well, my intention didn't get that far. But this way I can get more customers. It is undeniable that I prefer to work without being tied down. This way I feel more comfortable,” he replied frankly.


“Hmm .. okay. I tried to talk to the Guild Leader first. Maybe he'll call you directly after this. You get ready,” said Dirga later.


Shortly after that, the call was closed. One problem is done. As Dirga said, Riko did intend to make a greater profit as a supplier of weapons and equipment to other guilds. That way, he could also raise his own guild name to enter the top rank.


Riko's dream is very grandiose. He must also take advantage of the opportunity where he is on the rise because of his achievements against the dragon. Riko had already read some articles talking about it when he came out of the dungeon yesterday. Her picture when she exited the portal was plastered on all social media. Riko has become a lip. Success was like it was in front of his eyes.


After finishing business with the Ares Guild, now Riko must contact the second person she needs: Sita. I don't know why Riko wanted to contact the girl. Maybe not just because he wanted to invite a reference or bring Sita in his guild, but rather Riko wanted to show the girl that he had managed to reach this point. Riko needs a confession.


However, before he could press the button to call Sita, suddenly a notification appeared on his phone screen. Riko read a glance and instantly he felt more and more excited. The title of the script was accepted and he has got a guidance schedule on campus! How could his life suddenly become this surfing?


Riko punched the air happily. In the end he decided not to contact Sita first. He had better register his guild immediately before his luck ran out.


The young man then got ready to go to the Association. He also had to start looking for a wider house as his guild headquarters, as well as his residence. Riko could not continue to live in that narrow room while the money was already quite abundant now. He could even rent a three-room apartment with his income.


So with a light heart, Riko darted to the Association. He had already filled out the entire guild registration form and handed it to the receptionist whom he had met the other day. The names of Jaka, Rizal and Zein have been registered as members. Attached also a photocopy of the identity of the three of them as a complement.


“Please fill in the name of the guild first, yes, Kak,”, said the receptionist while re-stretching the registration form Riko.


“Hah? Guild name?” tanya Riko re-scanned the form. Apparently he was late filling in the name of the guild at the very top. Of the many things, why could Riko miss to name her own guild.


Confused, Riko decided to contact the other three members. They are all in the same chat group. “Shortly yes, Ma'am. I forgot the same discussion with other teams,” said Riko asked for time.


The receptionist smiled while nodding. Riko sat back in the queue and sent a short message to her group.


“There's a puny aide the name of our guild?” riko wrote in the short message.


Not long after that, the other children retaliated.


“The name is unique, Mas. What is Java-Java? Gandewa's? Arjuna?” reply Jaka shortly after.


Riko scrunched his forehead. He is not too fond of the taste of Jaka who is a native Jogja.


“Mending more modern. Hyperblast or Firebolt. Like the name of the broomstick Harry Potter.” Zein also typed the answer.


RIko snorted smallly reading Zein's answer. “Basic witch,” murmured to herself.


“If in my opinion, mending his name carries the uniqueness of our guild, namely the ability of Riko as a blacksmith. That could be a selling point, right. Riko also said they want to do business in that field. So it fits,” type Rizal who replied the last.


Riko weighed in on Rizal's proposal. He liked the idea because he also made his guild. Finally, he opened the internet to find a suitable name.


“Forging Masters. What if his name is that?” write Riko later.


After voting and voting, finally the name of Riko's proposal received absolute approval from the four guild members.
