IAM ROBIN

Boom...

An air train; a vehicle that looks like the larger version of a bullet train with the right magic booster all over its body to fly in the sky. It could accommodate about five hundred people. Now on the similar train that flew out of Noname City, Robin sat dressed neatly in white, beside a handsome young man who is also in a white dress. This young man is none other than the old man in black, his name is Peter. This is how he looks. Some of the flight attendants are giving him flirting looks, however, this guy Peter didn't even glance at them. Seeing that Robin turned his gaze outside the train in a rotten mood.

'When am I gonna grow up'

Robin was not irritated because of the girls. But to find that the old man, he spent his three years together, is a young man disguised as an old man. This is also the reason why Robin agreed to leave Noname and travel with him.

'I left my paradise with no other choice. This is fate.'

To other normal people, Noname would be hell. But to Robin, it was a paradise. He is not from this world. He got transmigrated to this world or to say transmigrated along with one lakh people of Earth.

Everything happened before 10 years. Robin was a top-class assassin of Earth. It is the year 2025 on Earth then, and his name was Robin Hood.

Like everyone, he has a tragic story about becoming a cold-blooded killer. And that was, his family getting killed when he was only 10 years old in a bomb blast made by an Evil Cult. So he trained under an assassin organization and destroyed the whole cult when he was thirty by his own hands.

After Robin's revenge, his life became even more tragic. Because he had nothing to do. Twenty years he ran after a single goal, and he had a lot of near-dead experience that made his heart numb. Even when he reached the hell, Robin didn't feel this much lost.

Doing nothing and being idle kills a person.

'Empty mind is devils workshop'

He even thought about going out and killing all the other evil organizations. But what will be of the people like him, who are fighting for revenge? Won't they be despaired of losing their goals? So he controlled his urges to become a mass murderer.

At that time a colleague of Robin suggested him to watch movies to spend his boring day. After hearing his colleague's advice, Robin started to watch some entertainment-oriented movies. But soon things changed and he found something to appreciate. He started to get immersed and watched all types and all language movies. It doesn't matter if he understands the language or not, he watched more than a thousand movies, it doesn't include the repetitive movies on his list.

He believed,

'Film, itself is a language

It doesn't need a language to understand'

But he repeatedly watched a movie during those days. That is the Batman series in which Joker is featured. He became hooked up about this character. A character that doesn't show any fear and does the things, In his way... Especially Joaquin Phoenix's performance on the franchise movie let him be so much hooked up. He disregards the days and time that is flying on. He felt like the emotions, he lost during his time as an assassin are returning to him.

Some movies are for healing.

On one of his NEET days which continued for 5 years, Robin went out to buy some food ingredients from the nearby grocery store. But when he was walking towards the store, he saw all people around him collapsing on the road as they got hit by a blue ray from the sky.

'Is it thunder lighting, but it's morning, the sun is still up'

He looked up only to lose his consciousness as he too got hit by the blue light.

'Damn, my head hurts'

When he opened his eyes he sat in a white chair and when he looked up, he saw a handsome man in a white dress sat before him. He lets out a holy aura.

'Don't tell, I'm dead. Is this hell or paradise. A good person like me will surely be in paradise'

Looking that Robin has woken up, the man casually said,

"Hai Robin, I'm Angel. Don't worry, you have not died. I have an amazing proposal for you. "

Before the Angel man could proceed with what he was saying, Robin asked,

'I'm not dead'

"So is it a reality show. No, I don't see any cameras. Yeah, I remember seeing blue light. UFO. Oh... You must be aliens then, trying to cheat me. Hey, wait how you know my name. Why am I here? Don't eat me, I won't taste good."

Even though Robin had all kinds of experience and had the confidence to face any adversary, now he panicked.

Fear of the unknown.

Seeing the panicked Robin, the Angel man didn't show any reaction on his face, he said,

" Look here. Let me explain fully, after that you can ask me questions "

Robin had a staring competition with the Angel man for ten minutes before letting out a long sigh. With no other option, Robin agreed,

" Go on"

After Robin's approval, the Angel man started his proposal details,

"God has planned to promote your planet Earth to the next level. Every 10000 years, 1000 planets are selected for a battle royale and 100 planets will be promoted to the next level update. Now your planet is selected, the update period is about 10 years. And that is the reason you are brought here.

This is an answer to your question 'why am I here?'."

Robin asked,

"Okay. For the Earth's update, why am I here? "

Angel man said,

"To the Great Battle Royale"

Robin asked more confused,

" What type of Battle Royale? "

Angel man said,

"Totally 1000 worlds are selected for update, and about 1 lakh candidate on every world, from different fields of expertise, are selected by their achievements. These selected candidates are sent to the next level plane and fight it out. The world will be ranked every 10 years. Oh yeah, 1 year on your world equals to 10yrs on the next plane. And update quality for a world will be decided by their rank. Planets that take the top 100 are selected to full update at a faster rate, it affects the time taken. As for how the world will be ranked that is according to the candidate's contribution. If you ask me what contribution, it's simple 'POWER'. "

Robin blinked,

" Power?"

Angel said,

"Yep. Power is also popularity, authority, money, and there are many ways to gain power. You have to make a name for yourself, it doesn't matter hero or villain."

Robin began contemplating as he tapped his fingers on the chair armrest.,

' Oh. The people selected by acting may become a popular Star, likewise, people can become anything they want. Even government officials, if there is a government there. Can become a politician. A merchant. Lots of options. I can also become an assassin easily with my expertise. '

So after some thinking through, he asked the Angel,

" so anyone can become anything? "

Upon which Angel said,

"Yes... Anything, but selecting their expertise will be easier and the outcome will be better."

Hearing that Robin nodded and said,

"Yeah, then it's an assassin. Since I'm the best in the world."

But Robin saw Angel make a weird face, so he asked what happened and Angel's answer made him choke,

"You were not selected for your assassination technique, but as a master of disguise. "

Robin started blankly, and asked,

"Then who is first"

Angel said with a guilty look,

"it's a fault, the thing is before 5 years of the selection process, every angel responsible for their candidate should go to Earth and they should inform their candidates about everything they need to know of the upcoming update. So that their candidate can develop in their expertise further. But when I came to Earth and saw you, you were watching the movie Gravity. You know I was also hooked up by the movie. So I watched it with you. Then next you watched Avatar, Terminator series like that I too started to watch with you. Even before I know it, the time was up. "

"So someone else took my place as number one assassin because of you. "

Asked Robin angrily.

"Don't be angry at me, even though you took second place as an assassin, I made my influence as an angle and got you first place in the art of disguise. I was the one who brought 'Godfather, The grapes of wrath, Parasite' movies and kept in your collections so you could watch"

Retorted the Angel.

' wow. I always thought my collection of movies kept on increasing. So that's the reason.'

But Robin said with a straight face,

"You brought so you could watch.

And what is this art of disguise? I only disguised myself as cult people's few times, during my assassination mission."

Angel said with an energetic smile on his face,

"Don't you worry, I have planned it out? I will make a person go and teach you the art of disguise once you got transmigrated. "

Robin asked with a serious look,

" Is there an option to change the angel responsible?.... While everyone is developing rapidly in their field of expertise, you want me to study. "

Angel said with a straight face,

"Nope, there is no option like that. Now for the benefits, I can give you a gift which you want for your development. Ask me what you want"

Robin smile and asked,

" Before that, I want to ask you about something, what is your name, Angel? "

Angel said,

" Angel"

Robin asked again,

" yes, what is the name. "

Angel said again,

" Angel"

" Angel's name is Angel"
