Saturday, 24th December

Many days had passed since the brutal killings in the forest of Sweden. Robin had been a little disturbed by what had happened and it took him a few days to get out of the gloomy situation.

The police couldn't find out what had happened and the guy who used to look out for targets on the crossroads also died in the same place as the couple. Apparently, Sigret had an army of drones hidden in a dimension that was exclusive to her and each drone had enough firepower to bring an entire house down. Her army had hundreds of these on reserve which she could use at will.

In order to alleviate Robin's mood, Sigret and Myrene had been training with Robin in open for the past few weeks while they travel across the countries. Mostly in places that were secluded to protect their training from prying eyes which had been quite tough on Robin. Every week there was an enhancement after he would read skill books on one-handed and two handed skills which led to his body changing drastically. Robin, who was 5'10 had reached the height of 6 feet, his muscles got more toned and strength had grown immensely. The continuous practice with the girls proved quite helpful as he used a normal sword taken out of a random game to have a friendly battle with the two girls.

"You have grown quite a bit in a few days." Sigret said as she finally showed a little appreciation for Robin. But he didn't feel content . He knew he was still far off from fighting toe to toe against Myrene. Forget about Sigret, she was in a way higher level.

But the training had helped Robin a lot, the filth of humanity had washed away from his mind as he concentrated on his fighting skills. He had acquired the moves and various ways to deal with enemies but he had never faced a real person and these two girls were the perfect dummies for him.

Today was a special day for Robin as he had reached Hallstatt. Th small and the famous village in the shores of Lake Halstatt was lit up for Christmas and Robin had hired a boat in the evening to sail in this massive lake while appreciating the quaint well lit village in the mountainside. They had reached the village the previous day for Christmas celebration. Being a non-Christian he had almost never seen such a huge hue and cry before in his place but here he got to the see the Christmas celebrations in their full glory.

At first when he reached the village, he didn't like it one bit because of the influx of people coming here for the vacations and celebrations. In fact they didn't even find any hotel room here, JARVIS had to book a whole home for their stay here.

Robin had seen this village in the pictures countless times so he definitely wanted to see it with his own eyes. And everything was worth it once he was in the boat with the two girls.

"Kireeeei..."

"The what now?"

"It's beautiful in Japanese." Sigret replied.

"Ah, you are Korean, why speaking in Japanese?"

"I was brought out from the Japanese version of the game, so of course my preference is Japanese."

Sigret and Robin were having a useless banter while Myrene just enjoyed the scenery. She had changed a lot from the time she was brought to this world. She was more expressive, open and even joked a few times. Both Sigret and Robin were happy to see this.

After the ride in the boat they roamed around the village which was filled with people. Normally, Robin would prefer less people but since it was Christmas celebrations he didn't mind it that much. The village seemed to bring people from different places together. He could easily recognize people not only from Austria but also from other countries and even a few from USA.

After roaming around quite a bit, they returned to the house.

The past few days had been quite dreamy for Robin. They had gone through Norway, Finland and some of the countries of Eastern Europe to reach this village. Of course along the way they brought a lot of things and Robin needed something that would work like a storage ring in the Chinese novels, so after discussing with JARVIS, he found two options. One was go for the TARDIS from Doctor Who games which had a space that could rival any big homes in Earth which had its own rooms and places to stay. This famous phone booth like structure could go through Time and Space itself and he could reach anywhere he liked. There were quite a few games that had TARDIS and the best thing about TARDIS was that he could take it in his palm and carry it along. But there was a downside too. He would have to enter TARDIS every time he needed something and it wouldn't work like a storage ring as he would have liked.

"TARDIS is definitely one of those things that should be brought." Robin had already made up his mind about it once he became aware of the powers of TARDIS. Of course, he wasn't dumb enough to use this and travel in time and kill Hitler. He was never going to mess with time. Years of movies and series had made him understand that Time Travel was dangerous. But he would definitely use it to travel in space for his own personal use.

Since TARDIS wasn't exactly viable for his luggage problem he went for the next best thing, the bag of holding from Neverwinter Nights. The bags of holding could be brought from various vendors from the game and even be brought by paying in-game. So Robin spent no time to buy many for himself and the girls. There was a special mythic bag of holding that had 60 slots and could be stored inside easily. There was no magic involved in this and for this reason Robin went for it.

The bag of holding looked like a backpack and thus could be carried easily. Robin now didn't have to care about his big-ass sword and had kept it inside the bag, along with his clothes and other items. One just needed to think about an item while bringing it out and it would automatically be placed in their hand. Another great thing about the bag was that once one took the bag and kept his items inside others wouldn't be able to bring it out. It was a tame beast for the person who was using it, never betraying its master. Robin also understood that some items could be shared with others too. In fact he had tried making the girls read the skillbooks but they didn't get any advantage out of it. It might be because their physiology was different from him. Only time would tell.

With the help of bag of holding, they had already gotten rid of the luggage that they had been carrying around and it was easier for them to move around with just one backpack. Sigret was loving the bag because one could stack identical items multiple times, which allowed her to keep her clothes in a single slot multiple times and not take up all the space in the 60 slots.

"JARVIS, how is the company working?"

"Sir, Mister Liang is already ready with the software and had forwarded it to the major companies like Google, Amazon and other cloud computing services. And from the response I understand that these companies have gone crazy over it. If it wasn't for Christmas, the companies would have arrived and make a deal with Mr. Liang and the company. The first meeting is with Amazon on 28th of this month."

"Has there been foul play from any of the big companies while approaching us?"

"No sir, there might be some obstacles while drafting the agreement terms with the companies but I will send a very competent lawyer to draft the agreement and make sure that everything is in order."

"Keep an eye on this. How is the archaeology going on?"

"Sir, we are already having an in-depth search but there is one small problem with one of sites"

"Oh! What is it?"

"The head archaeologist leading the team in Giza had been ousted out of the country and he has taken this personally. There might be an attack on our team soon."

"What? How does an archaeologist have the power to attack our team?"

"Sir, Dr. Samuel Livingstone had been working on the Pyramids for the last 15 years and he didn't like the way he was thrown out of the country. He had reached that position by both his virtue and connections. And that included the locals. He had hired quite a number of thugs and had provided them money in order to attack your team in the coming two weeks."
