Genesis: The Lucky Blacksmith
Anger

The next day, Riko's activities were really solid. Because he woke up in the afternoon, the young man had just gone to the Ares guild after lunchtime. Together with Zein they completed the purchase of weapons. Gamaliel had apparently prepared a lavish banquet to celebrate the completion of their cooperation.

Riko who actually just finished eating was finally forced to eat again with Zein. They tasted a variety of menus that even Riko had never seen at all. Foie Grass, a typical French food made from goose heart, caviar and various other expensive dishes are presented in front of Riko. Gamaliel Gunawan's wealth seems immeasurable and it makes Riko encouraged to be in the position.

“Thank you for your hard work, Riko Sanjaya. Hopefully in the future, we can continue to work well together,” said Gamaliel while lifting his wine glass.

There were only four people sitting at the table of the luxurious dining room of the Gamaliel residence. But the number of servants who helped them was more than six. Riko also raised her wine glass to be polite.

“Thank you for the trust Ares Guild has in us,” said Riko.

The two then sipped wine, followed by Zain and Dirga who also sat together.

“Eight more days the first guild war will be held. If you have time, please come to watch. Although this is an underground movement, but the place we have prepared well. So everything can be done safely and comfortably. I'll send you the official invitation. There is the address of the location of the guild war which is now still a secret,” said Gamaliel looked cheerful.

It seemed like the person was secretly enjoying the event. Gama was indeed not a calm person, he looked more like a battle maniac than anyone. Although Riko also knew that a swordsman usually still respected the principles of fair fighting. For them, honor is still important.

Unlike the assassins whose main purpose is to finish off the opponent no matter how. Even if they have to cheat or not be civilized.

“What many will come?” ask Riko curiously.

“So far, besides Ares, the five major guilds will of course take to the field. But we will only fight in the final. Not fair to other guilds. Maybe you also know that our main target is Silverdeath. He was in the order of six guild ranks. But because Minerva and Rangerbone seem to be on their side, so it's a bit difficult for Silverdeath mistresses,” said Gamaliel.

Riko recalled the current order of Guild rankings. Ares is still in first place, followed by Rhea's Corsage. The third rank was filled by the guild belonging to the alchemists named Minerva. Rangerbone where the Archers are fourth. The fifth guild to be neutral was the Holy Bible containing the priests.

“But not if the opponent Ares, surely Silverdeath can directly lose?” asked Zein curiously. “Or don't need Ares, Corsage is very strong. You are the top two in the guild rank,” continued the young man while chewing on a goose's heart.

Zain's digestion seems to work well because he can immediately eat voraciously even though before this has spent an extra large portion of rice paddies.

“Not so easy. When Ares sent a challenge to Silverdeath, Minerva and Rangerbone intervened. They fought back and there was no way we could also bully them both. Rank order can be chaotic. Later small guilds could crawl up and not be as strong as before.

“So we were forced to wait for Ares' fight with guilds that were on par with them. The problem is that assassins do not care about prestige or honor. I suspect they will deliberately lose just so as not to be finished with Ares,” growled Gamaliel with eyes sparkling with anger.

Riko agreed with that assumption. Snakes such as Rangga must have chosen to kink at all costs rather than being at the mouth of a ravine.

“So how are your plans?” ask Riko later.

“Holy Bible? They don't have combat capabilities?” asked Zein in amazement. “Priest, right?” he continued to turn to look at Riko for support.

But Riko understood the considerations of Gamaliel and Dirga. If the Holy Bible could join forces, then they would be Silverdeath's opponent because their rankings were indeed in order. The Holy Bible would definitely not be able to fight the lethal moves of the assassins and lose the match without damaging their reputation.

After all, the priests had been in fifth position because of their healing abilities and not fighting abilities. Therefore, even though it looks like sacrificing the Holy Bible in a battle that they cannot handle, but the members of the Holy Bible will also not be much hurt because they can heal themselves.

“The problem is that the head of the Guild is very difficult. They insist they do not want to be involved in the fight because the task is support,” complained Dirga while sighing.

“Si Noel it, right. Yesampun when he was brutal also in the dungeon. Now it only wants to participate as a healing team in the war guild,” said Gamaliel referring to the head of the Holy Bible Guild, Noel Sadewa.

“Noel Sadewa is irregular from priest class, right? People who reportedly can not die because of the Resurrection skill, rising from the dead,” continued Zein, the most updated news.

Gamaliel. “There are two irregulars in Priest class. Both were in the guild. In addition to Noel, there is one girl whose name is Diva. He's irregular with Future Sight's ability. It's some kind of oracle. Cuman, so holy they, or pretentious, do not know, they do not want to carelessly read the prophecy or raise the dead. The Holy Bible is exclusive only to their own members. I was like a new religious cult,” said Gamaliel while scolding denounce.

Riko understood Gama's annoyance. Though his plan was already perfect for destroying the Silver Death. But the challenge is winding. And the other Guilds were like not supporting Ares to push for justice.

Moved by the problem, Riko suddenly got the grapevine of crazy ideas. “If so, let us be Silverdeath's opponent in the first round,” he said without a second thought.

Everyone at the table was shocked. Even Zein choked on his own wine.

“Rik, mabok, lo?” said the witch still with a slight cough.

“Silverdeath that's not a playful guild, Rik. He has over fifty members. All of them were ruthless, evil, brutal, cunning assassins, and all of the other ugly mentions. Your guild is amazing because it can instantly skyrocket to the top ten. But resourcefully Forging Master is clearly not ready to join Guild War,” prevent Dipa seriously.

“Not you guys need an opponent who will lose with Silverdeath?” ask Riko who deliberately looking for reasons to still be able to face Rangga with his own hands. That great opportunity he could not miss at all.

But suddenly Gamaliel hit the table very hard. The expression on his face showed incredible wrath.

“I want to destroy those bastards until they are not left alone. But that does not mean by deliberately sacrificing innocent people,” furious angry.

Riko was silent. He had forgotten how powerful the principle of a swordsman was.
