In the year 3059, the planet of Celtic was a place for peace. But that peace doesn't pertain in every nook and corner of this planet. As some parts of the planet are still in constant chaos and war, just like their war with Demons. Because Celtic, just like any other galactic planet out there on the middle plane has a lot of different species living in harmony or trying to live in harmony.

On this planet, there is a famous place called Noname city or the 'Black Market of Celtic'. Its called a Noname place because half of the beings here are lawless criminals, while the other half are abandoned children of war that are possession of these criminals. This place is famous only because it is the ultimate black market without law. Here most of the illegal deals such as slave trade, illegal goods, stolen goods everything you name it, 'illegal' and you trade it. This is a paradise for criminals and hell for the weak.

Here people don't care about the law, if a person has the power then he/she is the law.

In such a place, a small human kid was standing in a dark alleyway where only junk and rats that eat those junks could be glimpsed.

Drip...slush...

The sound of wastewater running through the sewage could be heard clearly in this mute place.

That human kid is looking anxiously to the left and right side of the alley entrance. He has a cute face with little chubbiness, however, everything about him got diminished in the rags he wore that only covered half of his body letting the cold wind race through it. He looked to be around ten years old. He held a small hand made catapult in his right hand a weapon that fits in his small palm.

It was around the time, the sun said goodbye darkening the sky, making the murky alley even darker to see the shadows.

But not for the kid, he saw around him, with his sharp eyes as though he could perceive all.

'haha... night vision.'

flop...flop...

Rapid footsteps could be heard walking towards the alley.

Hearing the footsteps, the kid body tightened.

As the footsteps got nearer, the kid saw a tall man secretively walking towards the alley through the side of his eyes. He was not a human, he is a head taller than a normal adult human. That's not the only difference, he has green skin and blue fins covering specific parts of his body. He was a crossbreed of the orc and fisher-man tribe. His face is like an orc but his body is not big, he has a lean body with gills around his neck. His name is Blowish.

When Bolwish entered the alleyway which he usually used for his secret rendezvous with Rodak's wife, Pris. Rodak is the leader of a street gang that is one of the famous among several, in the western part of Noname City.

Blowish saw the small human kid standing in front of the alley, with a nervous expression on seeing him. However, to see a small kid standing there in this alleyway, he didn't feel any suspicion about it, because it is a common occurrence in Noname seeing an abandoned kid in a place like these. If a kid becomes useless, they would be thrown to the street. It might be due to several reasons, weak talent, contacting some disease or weak body, or damaged organs.

But when he walked past that kid, deep into the dark alleyway, he heard the human kid call out to him ( curse him),

" Hey, you. Son of a fish "

Hearing that he turned around with tightening his fists to scold, but he got hit right in his eyes by a thing that came out of that kid's hand made weapon. After the hit, he could only hear the footsteps of the kid running away. Bolwish could only see endless darkness. Because he lost his sight.

" Damn punk. What have you done to my eyes?"

And as he moved backwards out of instinct to be safe, he thought to himself,

'I don't know whose plan this is. But the first thing to do now is, get out of here.'

He is powerful. He can take 10 people on a fight even with his lean body, he was confident in his cultivation, Beginner's Realm.

But soon his foot got slipped as he moved back by some oil-like substance with high friction fluidity. And as he fell, a sharp object like a glass cut his neck without any resistance. His life ended with his fall as the head rolled away from his neck. Bolwish never knew what happened till his last breath.

Fresh blood flowed in the dark alley mixing with the sewers.

'Poor Pris would be waiting all alone'

--------------

30mins later...

The same kid that killed Bolwish was now standing in a big house's main hall, he saw a big orc man with a muscular body sitting on a big white chair that looks like a throne made of bones. That orc has a fearsome face, two long teeth like tusk protruded out of his mouth and a long scar on his face. There was a big blue Halberd beside his Throne.

'Wow... this orc is fearsome. Just like in the movie, 'world of warcraft'.'

The kid bowed and saluted while putting on the face of someone that is frightened.

'he is Bolwish's father, Donac.'

Seeing him, the orc asked,

" Is what you said is true.? "

Hearing that, the kid said in a weak voice as he took a step back,

"I don't know the details... but... a man in black told me this. That the affair between your son and Rodak's wife is found out by Rodak. So out of rage, he is searching for your son. The man in black also told that he said this information, in appreciation for your help in the past. That's all I know"

After thinking it for a moment, Donac called two of his goons and asked them something. Getting their answers, he shouted toward them,

"That useless piece of shit. Go and bring my son here."

After that Donac turned toward the kid,

'This kid wouldn't know a thing about the man in black. Killing him is a waste. Let me leave him be, so I can find some clue of that man in black.'

He threw two gold coins towards the kid and told,

"Leave."

After picking up the gold coins from the ground the kid left the room.

'Phew, that look he gave, really scared me.'

Donac sent a goon to follow the kid in secret.

When the kid was out of the house, he saw a man with a big frame and a pig face enter Danac's house. It was Rodak.

' Rodak has correct timing', smirked the kid seeing him. As he was the one, that told Rodak about his wife's affair with Bolwish.

"How dare your son play with my wife and make me wear a green hat. Hand me your son, I will castrate him."

shouted Rodak as he kicked open the gate of the house along with the goon that followed the kid.

And war broke out, between the two gangs.

---------------

But the kid who made all the chaos had long since walked far away from that place or to say even from the battle zone.

When the kid entered a dark alley, he started to panic suddenly.

'Damn... I am caught'

A man in black dress appeared before him and picked the kid by holding his hair up from the ground,

" It has been three years since I have taken you under my tutelage. Three years before when I met you, you killed a man with the same trick, you used on Bolwish. Only to get caught by that man's people. I saved you because I thought you are a good piece of talent that needs grooming. I want you to be a disguise master like me. But you were becoming like a killer. "

"Please this is the last time, forgive me, Old man. Ouch... I mean, master. It hurts. Please.", prays, the kid with joined hands to the Old man, as he teared up.

"Do you know the chaos you brought to me?? Because of you my mission almost got blown. After you left, Donac's men came with Bolwish body and angered Donac brought all his people, and razed Rodak's base. Killing Rodak. You started a war here."

hearing what the man in black is saying, the kid smiled.

Seeing the expression on his face the man in black, became angry and threw him to the ground,

"Ouch... That hurt old man" said the kid while rubbing his back. But secretly thought to himself,

'I will definitely, make you pay for this.'

"You piece of shit, Donac is now searching all over the place for a kid and a man in black. We have to leave Noname now. Why do you involve me? I used that disguise in my espionage mission and now you have exposed me."

After that, the old man in a black dress took out a hand bracelet in green colour and tossed it toward the kid,

"This is the identification pod. It will help as your ID. Name yourself. I will say it's other uses after we leave here. We will depart by tonight. That cost me a fortune"

" hehe... Thank you, Master"

Smiled the kid and wore it in his hand. Upon which a blue light came out of the bracelet and scanned him.

{Bonded with the host.

Name yourself}

Hearing the girl's voice coming from the bracelet, the kid laughed like a maniac and said.

'I will become the number one Assassin in this world.'

"IAM ROBIN"
