Heads have started rolling

Thursday, 5th January.

Location : Ryongsong Residence, Pyongyang, North Korea

Also known as Residence No. 55, this was the place where the famous Kim Jong-un lived. The place where one of the most evil dictators alive slept, ate and shat. And this was the place where they would start their raid. The sun had just set and darkness enveloped the city of Pyongyang when a silhouette of a weird looking hovering phone booth appeared above the (in)famous residence. Of course, it was the TARDIS but it was working in functional perception filter mode.

"I have activated the translation feature of this spaceship so you wouldn't have to keep mum and can speak your mind to the fat person below. Remember you can only kill the people who are inside the residence and capture those who are just forced into it. Killing the people outside the residence might trigger a warning and will make our next moves very difficult."

"Got it."

The city was looking lifeless and there were fewer lights and fewer lights farther you move from the residence. It was winter, and Robin was welcomed with a cold gust of wind as he stepped out. Any normal person would shiver a little if they came out at this time.

Very little was known of the 'palace' of Kim Jong-un but now an outsider was going to step foot into this residence for the first time. Over the years, North Korea had many visitors from various countries but this would be the first time when someone from outside the country was going to come to his residence and also raid it.

Robin was rather calm in this regard. Months of training and gaining power through skill books and tomes was working its magic now. His sneak level had already increased multiple times and that kind of skill had enabled him to be silent and deadly.

TARDIS landed very silently on a very well lit residence. The roof was unique as it had four open areas that was built over the four dumb-bell shaped sections of the residence. Each of these sections were well connected through a covered dome which went straight over the main building.

The TARDIS landed on one of the sections that didn't have guards. Yes, there were two guards on the roof that kept an eye on the residence from the top. Kim Jon-un was paranoid enough to equip these two guards with a high powered long distance rifle. They were kept there more to shoot anyone who broke the rules or someone who could barge in or someone who thinks of running away from the residence. It was kind of a sick game for the fat man. Nobody had the guts to walk in without proper check so it was for runners who might have those thoughts.

Robin and the two girls came out slowly from the TARDIS. The two guards were not exactly very active and were just chatting among themselves on a single roof on the other side.

"Let me take care of them. I haven't tasted blood for such a long time." Sigret said as she brought out her signature weapon. The spear that could turn into scythe when she wished for it. For this particular raid she had donned a full black suit made inside the wardrobe of TARDIS which could make clothes in any shape, size and for any occasion.So of course, Sigret used it liberally.

After saying so she vanished from his spot. No, Robin could see her. She flew to the other side of the roof and before anyone could realize that she was beside the two guards floating nearby, she sliced at the two horizontally. That single swipe was enough to behead the two guards! Two heads rolled in the air and then fell down the side. Blood rapidly gushed out from their necks and sprayed everywhere and made the scene quite bloody.

Robin and Myrene were quite far from the place but they could easily see Sigret's bloody work with their enhanced eyesight. Normally, she was the most cheerful of the three but it was on the battlefield where she showed her prowess. She didn't even give these two guards one second to realize that she had appeared behind and just got killed. And killing them wasn't the only thing she did. She brought out multiple drones from her exclusive dimension and ordered the drones to take care of the bodies. The drones got into work and started decimating the bodies with their lasers. In order to make sure that the laser wasn't visible to anyone from the huge lawn of the residence, the drones dragged the body to the middle of the rooftop and did their work in utter silence.

Though the bodies weren't of any consequence once they took care of the fat man, but until then they didn't want any alarm raised. JARVIS and Sigret didn't have access to the local radio of the place but now they do after they landed so they knew that there was always a check in the comms once in a while so she wanted to make sure that there was no check up personally on the rooftop from other guards.

After taking care of the bodies, the drones flew away to the lawn.

"Where did you send them?" Robin and Sigret finally came after walking over the dome to the other section of the roof. He also tried not to look at the small pool of blood on the roof. He was a little disgusted but endured it.

"The drones would keep an eye on the guards of the lawn and also the gatekeepers from a distance. Once we reach the final phase of the mission, they will kill the guards."

Robin nodded and looked at the door which led to the downstairs. Wasting no time, he used the vision feature to see who was in this residence. Although it was a very large residence there weren't many people in it. There were two chefs in the kitchen. Three bodyguards that were at the door of the residence and one just outside the door of the master bedroom. The place where the most number of people were located was the master bedroom. There were at least five people in the master bedroom. Robin was puzzled by this and concentrated on finding through his X-ray vision the cause of this unusual circumstance. A person as paranoid as the fat man should be more afraid of having too many people in his room. Only after he looked closely that he understood why this was the case.

There were four women in the bedroom and one fat person. The three women looked quite young from the outline and the fat man in the room seemed like he was running his hands over the three women however he liked. Robin didn't need to see more to understand what was going on.

This bitch was having 'fun' with these three women while the other woman, who seemed quite mature from the outline, seemed to enjoy watching the fat person commit such debauchery. Though it was only seen in his vision and not in reality, the mere vague outlines of it made him want to raze this place to the ground and rescue these women.

"Calm down." Myrene also used her visor and knew what was going on so he came and touched the shoulder of Robin. She feared that he would lose himself in emotions and jeopardise the mission.

"Don't worry.. I am calm... Myrene, I want you to take care of the chefs and make sure that the three guards outside the door never come in."

Robin said after a moment of silence. Myrene nodded as she understood her assignment and opened the door to the stairways. Unlike her time in Nier Automata she was quite stealthy here and nobody could hear her footsteps as she walked in. She might be heavy as she was an android but she was sure that didn't hamper her stealth movement.

Following Myrene, both Robin and Sigret walked in through the door. Robin was already in his Blue Beetle suit as he and Sigret walked side by side on the wide staircase. After going down by a floor, they reached the room which led to the main hall in the center of the residence. Though the building was huge it only had two floors. It was done so after the personal preference of the Supreme Leader. The lowest floor was the underground floor which was blast shelter able to survive nuclear attack and this led to having a single floor in the main house, because apparently, the fat man had a fear that he wouldn't be able to ever get out once there was a nuclear attack and the debris of the main building wouldn't allow him to come out after the fallout.

Robin and Sigret passed through rooms in absolute silence, while Sigret made sure there were no traps. Myrene took a different route after crossing a few rooms with them as the kitchen was on the other side. The duo crossed many rooms which had luxuries that could gain envy of even some of the richest people of the world..
