Red armor? Nah, I prefer the color blue

The rest of the day went with celebrating and they even went to the church where even with so many people there was total silence. And later went on a small hike to the mountains nearby where they found a secluded spot to evolve Haunter to Gengar. Myrene had watched the first evolution and it was nothing new to her, but for Sigret it was totally new and she was hyper-excited to see her 'pet' evolve to a totally new thing.

She had already seen the picture of Gengar and she couldn't wait. After JARVIS used the candies and the required items to evolve in the game, Haunter gave out a bright light just like it did last time and it evolved in a matter of seconds to a cute, chubby and always smiling Gengar.

Sigret couldn't hold back and hugged Gengar. Myrene and Robin too joined and everyone hugged together. Robin was more than happy to be a part of this family that he was responsible for giving life to and was proud of it.

It was already snowing very heavily in the mountains so they had to return. It was beyond cold, though the sun is supposed to go down hours later. Robin would have loved to explore this place but the snow would just be a hindrance. One thing changed about the physiology of Robin was that his endurance level had gone high with each enhancement and his survivability in the wilderness had increased a lot.

After they returned, Robin went straight to the fireplace to make himself a little hot. Sigret and Myrene were androids so they had no sensation of cold or hot weather and though Robin had gained strength over time, it didn't mean that he was immune to extreme weather changes.

"I envy you." Robin said as he put forward his hands to control its temperature.

"We envy you too. We want to feel the weather but we just can't. We can only fake like we feel the weather. You are lucky." Myrene said. Hearing those words, Robin became silent. The androids didn't have those sensations and they would never be able to feel how a human being feels.

It might help them survive, but it also robbed them of many emotions and sensations that seemed very normal for a typical person.

"I guess there is a balance to everything." Robin mumbled under his breath as he sat near the fireplace and looked at it. The rest of the time they spent playing with Gengar or reading new novels on his mobile. Even after all this time he would still check new novels or fictions that would interest him.

He would support some of them if they wrote good ones, a feat which was once almost impossible for him. With those the rest of the afternoon passed away and in the evening they went to see how the village looked and if there were any changes on this auspicious day.

The snow just made it more magical and he loved every bit of it. He even video-called his parents and his cousin to show the views around.

"You asshole.. I want to go too.."

"Then you can come. I will book the ticket."

"Just kidding.. Save your money and when you come back we can go to beautiful places for vacations after my studies end. My university days are finally coming to a conclusion in a few months. And the head of the department had been surprisingly very accommodating in the last few days. She never complained and even gave me leave when I asked for it."

"Good for you."

"By the way, I might get engaged to my boyfriend in a couple of months."

"Are you serious? Why the rush?"

"He got scared because he thought I might leave him after he goes to Singapore."

"Hahaha... He does have reasons to be scared. Just remind me a few days before the engagement. I will be there."

"Are you sure? Will you even get the leave?"

"Don't worry. As I said, I have enough money to be there."

"I will like it if you are here."

Robin then proceeded to show the village from his camera and spoke of wonderful things of this place. He loved making his cousin jealous.

"Don't worry, with your calibre, I am sure one day you will get to see more wonderful places."

"Only if you take me there."

After a brief time talking with her and his parents, he was back at his place. He had spent a quality time outside and just wanted to sleep by this point. It was late at night so the temperature had gone down by quite a few degrees and just wanted to be in his bed near the fireplace.

Monday, 26th November.

Today was a very important day for Robin. It might have been very normal for Sigret and Myrene to kill things and move on but he in his life had never had any kind of confrontation that escalated into fist fights or anything. He had always actively avoided fights as he felt that he was too weak.

Now that he had strength, he still had that same mentality. He might have done some practice with the girls but it was done because he was sure that he wouldn't be able to hurt anyone. But it was different now. He could easily hurt people, even if he didn't use his Dragon shouts.

Hell, his new sword could easily kill people with just a thought. And today was like a huge exam for him as he would be confronting his childhood fear of hurting others. He wondered if he would feel fear when he would hurt someone.

Not the fear of authorities, but the fear of his own power and what he was becoming slowly. But he would have to cross the bridge as Sigret would definitely force him. And she was right. His time on Earth was limited and he would soon go to space for exploration. Billions of galaxies and there was no way that it was devoid of another civilization.

"Sir, this mission would require a suit of armor to protect your body. I would suggest the Iron Man armor by Sir Tony Stark." JARVIS said.

"No, that is too flashy and the suit doesn't have the nano armor that I can just suit up. It would take a lot of space to just fit the armor on the body with the help of machines. Plus, Tony's armor is made for more long range purposes. I am more of a melee attack person and that is only so when someone would come after me after they could ever defeat my words of power."

"Sir, then I have the perfect suit for you."

JARVIS then proceeded to show a game. A game which he had once looked long ago and was known as one of the best games ever made under the DC banner along with the Arkham Knight series.

Injustice 2.

This game was more like playing Street Fighter of older times but it had its own story. There was one character which everybody would just look over but was immensely powerful with its own suit of armor made of alien technology.

Blue Beetle.

Blue Beetle was a DC character which was in comics and in the game. Blue Beetle was an alien tech which needed a host to latch on to and provide him with a suit of nano armor. The person who had the Blue Beetle would not only be able to fly, thanks to nano wings and boosters but also could shoot plasma bullets and make his hands change to any shape of weapon for melee fight.

If that was not all the Blue Beetle legs could extend to form legs like the Iron Spider armor of MCU and even those legs could change its shapes. This was the perfect armor for Robin and JARVIS showed him various advantages of using that armor.

"This is cool. Open the game JARVIS. I will pluck away the Blue Beetle."

"As you wish sir."

His laptop opened the game and soon he was playing the character of Blue Beetle. Robin extended his hand and separated the Blue Beetle 'backpack' from the body of the player and took it out since it was just a piece of technology.

The Blue Beetle looked small in his palm but in the blink of an eye it grew bigger. The Blue Beetle, after taking its original, spent no time using a booster to levitate and latch on the back of Robin. It happened so fast that Robin didn't even get the time to appreciate the beauty of this alien tech.

"You should have gone for the golden version." Sigret said as she saw her master bring the Blue Beetle out.

"And make myself the next Kilmonger. No thank you. I like the blue color."

"You have no style." Sigret complained.

Robin didn't bother about Sigret and saw his back in the mirror. It was in the shape of a beetle and had small legs that helped it latch on the back of Robin. He didn't feel any kind of pain or hindrance that the beetle was in his back.
