Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith
Kidnaping

Riko kept trying to resuscitate the taxi driver. But the man could not talk at all. Although Riko tried to shake her body, the taxi driver was shaking. Both of his eyes stared blankly at the highway, while his hands and feet were busy driving in a direction that Riko did not know.

The young man could not decide whether he needed to panic or not. The only thing immediately in his head was to contact Rhea. The girl could definitely help him in such a tight time.

“Rhe, I don't know what happened. But it's like my cabotage was sabotaged. I'm –.” Not until Riko finished talking, the taxi driver suddenly grabbed Riko's phone just like that and threw it out the window.

The middle-aged taxi driver's face looked really strange. His empty eyes looked even more intimidating.

“Heh, Sir. What the fuck?!” exclaim Riko angry. The young man gripped the arm of the taxi driver to make their car run.

Riko was thrown to the side of the seat. His body hit the door until it made a loud noise. Meanwhile, the taxi driver regained control of his vehicle and turned to a deserted old warehouse. Riko tried to fight back, but her body suddenly could not move. Even to speak, to move his lips, he cannot. Only his eyeballs could glance in all directions in panic.

Shortly after that the taxi he was riding stopped, entering into a dark warehouse. From the corner of Riko's eyes, he saw several people already gathered inside there. The warehouse door was closed after a two-wheeled vehicle came inside. One of the motorists approached the taxi. The person knocked slowly on the car door next to Riko Sembali smirked.

“The journey is exciting?” knock the guy out after opening the door. He was a long-haired man with a thin mustache.

Riko still couldn't move. The young man could only groan, making an indistinct sound. Suddenly his body moved out of his control, then out of the car. Riko could only be astonished inwardly, bewildered by this menacing state.

“Udah is enough, Tom. Just let go of him,” said a voice that burst out from behind the darkness of the corner of the warehouse. There were at least six people who surrounded Riko. Four men and two women.

Out of those six, another young man emerged from the darkness. And how shocked Riko was when he realized that the person was apparently Rangga. It turns out that it was the curse man who had trapped her, sabotaged Riko's taxi and brought her to this empty warehouse.

Now Riko knows why the taxi driver was acting strangely. Including his body that was now unable to move. This is a rare skill of the assassin that is controlling the shadow and making the target move according to the command. But this skill should not be owned by just anyone. That means Riko is now dealing with another irregular of the Assassin class who are none other than Rangga's men.

Shortly after Rangga ordered the gondrong man to release his shadow skill on Riko, the young man was finally able to move again. It must be the motorist who also controls the taxi driver. He followed them from behind while using the skill.

“Basic bastard!” spray Riko as soon as her body is free. The young man immediately charged towards Rangga furiously. But two of Rangga's men immediately confronted him and tried to hold Riko.

Riko convulsed as he lashed out with the black box containing the weapon for Rhea. One man managed to fall with a leaking head full of blood. Of course the person fainted immediately. Riko's weapon box was made of quality iron.

Riko's sudden attack immediately triggered the assassins at the place to retaliate. But Rangga stopped his men by raising one hand. Unfortunately Riko could not take advantage of that situation to attack Rangga because now his body could not be moved again.

“How does it feel to catch the Shadow Chaser skill?” tukas Rangga grinned. Riko's mortal enemy also walked closer to the thin-moustached moustached gondrong man. Under the person's feet, a pitch-black shadow extended all the way to Riko's body, tying him to motionless.

“Tom, make him talk. Not good to say the same statue,” Rangga command again.

The person named Tomi nodded slowly and then pulled one of his shadow tendrils. Instantly Riko's lips no longer felt stiff. He can speak even though his entire body is still under the control of others.

“What do you want?” sergeant Riko with a stiff body.

Rangga chuckled mockingly. “Indeed you think I'll just shut up to see a loser like you can have a good reputation? I'm sure it must be just your wits, right,” said the young man as he walked closer.

“Whatever you want to say. I have no obligation to straighten your dumb mind,” said Riko growled with anger.

Rangga laughed again. “Gue wondered how you look if this object is missing,” he continued while caressing a black box containing weapons made by Riko.

“Don't you dare touch this thing.” Riko glared emotionlessly even though her body did not move.

Rangga snorted short. “What's special about this useless toy. Players who depend on the same junk gini, just like sheep who are wolf-feathered. Weak but depends on the same ability. That's why a lowly blacksmith like you can have a name. Because most other players are weak, Rangga's blame” continues to demean Riko.

Riko did not budge. Rangga's words didn't hurt her one bit. Riko knew that Rangga's words were only to cover up his own weakness. Rangga was talking about himself, and not Riko or anyone.

“Gue will be destroyed your life, Riko,” said Rangga turned upset because his tactics hurt mentally Riko has failed. The young man then tried to seize the black box containing weapons ordered by Rhea.

Riko desperately tried to hold her grip as firmly as possible in her box grip. Unfortunately, Tomi, the irregular assassin, can control Riko's body. The man began to force Riko to loosen her grip, while Riko continued to fight back.

“Association will not let you guys off. Players who use their power outside the dungeon can be doubted. You want to destroy your own guild? Silverdeath can be dissolved,” Riko said half groaning.

Rangga laughed off. “Lo is too confident Assassin, Riko. No one can catch us easily. That's why my guild received many jobs as a hit man.”

Riko was already close to releasing her grip on the black box, when suddenly a woman in all-black clothes jumped down from the ceiling of the warehouse.

“Bos! Lothawat! The Corsages found us. The witch troupe has invaded the warehouse! We have to go now!” said the black masked woman.

Rangga clucked furiously. He had to think fast to avoid getting caught. Finally, the young man ordered his members to retreat with their bare hands and then jumped on the roof and disappeared like a shadow swept by light.
