Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith
Developing a Guild

The barn door slammed open just as Riko was finally able to move her body. The assassins had left and now the old warehouse had been invaded by a group of witches. There were four people who came, including Rhea the Guild leader.

The girl walked up to Riko with worry. Riko was always amazed how Rhea could move smoothly when both her eyes were covered in white cloth.

“Riko! You all right?” rhea asked as soon as she got near Riko.

Riko gave a short nod, grateful that Rhea's ordered weapon was still in her hands. The young man handed the box to Rhea.

“Have you been kidnapped because of this weapon?. It should have been me who came to your place, yes,”, Rhea said regretfully. The girl receives a gun box from Riko and guides the young man out of the warehouse.

Three other witches invited by Rhea are now combing the warehouse to look for traces of the kidnapper. But it was futile because those Assassins must have left no evidence at all.

“Not. Not because of that, though. That person has been troubled by me from the past,” said Riko as it is.

“What guy almost killed you in Cerme Cave dungeon?” guess Rhea.

Riko nodded without hesitation. “Now he is the chairman of the Assassin Guild, Silverdeath,”.

“The person. If only he was not an assassin, it would be easier to reach his group. The taxi driver will not know why he was there. The irregular must have been involved,” said Rhea as he dedicated to the taxi driver.

Riko saw the taxi he was driving earlier darting out of the warehouse carefully. One of Rhea's fellow mages seemed to have just awakened the driver from his trance condition. The driver now looked dazed and confused. A player's skill does have a big impact on ordinary humans. They had no defense against the skills of the players. Because it was actually a taboo for players to use their skills on ordinary humans.

“Rhe, the guy said that their guild was also involved in premeditated murder. He said they also received work as contract killers,” said Riko remembered Rangga's boasting earlier.

Rhea breathed a heavy sigh. “It was already an open secret among the big guilds, Rik. Your friend is a dangerous man. But his family had a big influence to protect him until he was not touched by the law. Udah so player-player assassin seems to be designed so as not to be easily caught. There is no evidence against them, although everyone knows that many murders have been committed. The association didn't even manage to freeze their guild,” Rhea's story was long.

Riko growled furiously. Rangga has been absolutely outrageous. That person has not been normal since. Somehow, Riko hopes someday he can stop the brutal lunge of Rangga.

...***...

After being rescued by Rhea, Riko was briefly treated at the Corsage guild headquarters. The place is truly magical because each room has a different feel. There is a room that from the outside looks small, but after entering it becomes a jungle. While the room where Riko was treated turned into a luxurious room with soft clouds and soothing classical music.

Although amazing, but Riko decided not to linger in the headquarters of the second largest guild. He did not actually have any serious injuries either. Therefore, after receiving payment, as well as a little care, Riko returned to her apartment.

It was Mona who first appeared once Riko knew she had arrived at the apartment. The girl had apparently heard from her friend in the Corsage guild about the tragedy of Riko's abduction. Zein, Jaka, Rizal and Gladys arrived shortly after. They all looked furious because of the incident.

“The jerk has no capoknya. Do we need to teach them a lesson?” amuk Zein while clenching his hands.

“If with our current strength, it is impossible to win against Silverdeath. Their guild already had dozens of members. Nyelundup secretly also difficult because they are experts in hidden attacks,” said Mona logically.

“Jancuk! There is no morality! Play kidnap a rich mafia snob!” rutuk Jaka is no less emotional.

“Sabar, Jak. If they play dirty, they will get their own stones. Now we have to focus on surviving first,” Gladys chimed in.

“I've been to their headquarters once, Rik. The place is like a former sports building that has not been made. I was there for a briefing to enter the dungeon. His guard was layered and many assassin players were hiding behind that disguise. I don't think it's a good idea if we reply directly to their headquarters,” explained Rizal later.

Riko did not intend to repay Rangga in such a childish way. The goal was not just to injure Rangga or his minions, but to disband their rotten guild and imprison all the members involved in the killing. Therefore, he must have the right long-term strategy. Riko can't be rash.

“For now we must focus on increasing the number of members first. If our guild has started to develop and can design at least two permanent dungeons, our position will be more stable. I need people to take care of this kind of administration, including the submission to take over a permanent dungeon that no other guild has yet mastered. Are any of you able to take care of things like this? Or do I need to recruit new people?” ask Riko later.

Mona raised her hand. “I can. Let me make the guild administration system and take care of the bureaucracy. Gini-gini I graduated from Business Management,” said the girl with a raised smile.

“OK, good. Thanks Mon. Later I will calculate the salary bonus and job allowance as Administrative Manager, yes,” said Riko who haphazardly mentioned the name of the new position for Mona.

Mona laughed. “Casual. We pioneered together. Anyway you stay ACC aja, Boss,” kelakar the girl.

Gladys raised his hand. “I also want a Guild list. I think exciting also play with you guys,” he said cheerfully.

“You think we're just messing around, Gladys?” jaka's protest followed the laughter of the rest of the guild.

Finally the formation of the Guild Forging master's work arrangement was completed. For her skills in administration, Mona was the Vice-Chairman of the Guild. Zein, the S-level warlock, is responsible for the security of all members, especially Riko. The young man finally decides to stay in the apartment with Riko for a while.

Jaka and Rizal have a duty to recruit more new members. They are planning an open recruitment in the near future. For a while Riko could entrust those jobs to his comrades, while he himself had to focus on finding money and getting a bigger headquarters. There was no way they would have to constantly gather in that apartment. If the Guild members were already more than ten people, Riko needed a bigger building.

Just thinking about it, Riko's phone suddenly embroidered. Gamaliel Gunawan's name is on his screen. Riko smiled knot. Be loved, ulam arrived.
