127. Can I buy a ship?

As they both signed up, Robin grinned and asked one of the Palace's management staff to set them up with an account in North Korea so that everything would go smoothly.

"Was there a reason to hire them?" Rita queried. She didn't comprehend why Robin would look far and wide to employ people who weren't part of his creation. She had seen how obedient the palace people were and they were much intelligent and better than the people around.

"No. Not quite. Simply put, I object to how they regard me as a deity. Being among them has already made me a little egocentric. Having normal people around gives me a change of pace. Additionally, these women had been helpful to us and even assisted with your wedding." Robin responded, and she was right. He definitely didn't appreciate all of the admiring glances he gets around here.

Even while it wasn't a bother, it can still be uncomfortable at times.

It took an hour to get everything set up before they could leave. When Rita and Cathrin stepped onto the ship, they were clearly excited. The two space -hostesses had already gone to the spaceship beforehand so as to get to know their mode of transport better.

After a short travel they had reached the VIP section of the airport. They could see several world leaders preparing for their maiden space flight from the side of their eyes. None of the big international leaders had the bravery to board the first ship when it departed. The only people willing to take the chance were the rulers of small countries and the owners of enormous enterprises.

Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, was the first to seize the chance. He traveled to space for the first time with other CEOs from companies like Apple, Amazon, Tata, Nvidia, and other groups as well as minor world leaders. And the more they saw the ship, the more they were mesmerized. The Andromeda had everything.

Starting with crew quarters, the captain's cabin, enormous storage capacity, side missile launchers and turrets, and even a lift to hoist other small vehicles with them. In truth, there was a small external ship with a one-person capacity attached to the end of the ship, which passengers could use to travel short distances when in space and the ship was anchored.

Everyone was eager to travel to space after the first ship returned with feedback. Many of the world leaders wanted to determine whether the technology they were seeing at the time could offer them some level of safety and give them a fighting chance since a threat was hovering over their heads.

They didn't matter to Robin, who quickly arrived at the Origin 890 Jump. Emily and Cassandra greeted all four of them as they boarded the ship. Compared to when they were aboard the airplane, they were both wearing entirely different attire now. The two of them were beaming broadly. They had taken a tour of the ship, and suffice it to say that practically every criterion for luxury had been met to a tee.

They were granted crew accommodations, which were larger than their actual home. That revealed enough about how extravagant and ridiculous this ship was. They cherished every square inch of it. It even had a swimming pool. They were troubled by just one single query. It was the gravity. The ship was equipped with every amenity because to the fact that gravity was integrated into the ship.

So the question was. Does the ship's have artificial gravity?

"Welcome to 890 Jump, sir." Emily grinned as she said.

"How is the ship. Do you like it?" Robin enquired.

"Honestly speaking sir, it would take me few days to not get lost in it. This ship is amazing." Emily answered.

"Hahahaha.. " Robin guffawed. Rita and Cathrin couldn't wait any longer and nearly rushed around to see what was so great about the ship about which Robin had been bragging all along. Then came Sauvik. And it's sufficient to state that they were in awe.

"As I mentioned, I created this ship while picturing the one from the game. You should have checked it out on YouTube before." said Robin.

"Yes, but I didn't anticipate it to be that inflated," she said. Sauvik answered. It was time to depart after spending around 30 minutes on a tour of the ship. The ship's pilots were two Nod Brotherhood members who had been trained as pilots. Once they had completed their little tour, they departed.

All of them, including the space- hostesses, were in the cockpit to see around as they took off. The foreigners also observed the departure of a white ship. The Premier described the ship's outlines and talked about it.

The world leaders had stars in their eyes.

It took the ship around ten minutes to reach the exosphere after it had already lifted off. From there, they could see the Earth, the moon, and the sun. Everyone had huge eyes trying to take in everything that they were watching.

Cathrin pulled out her phone to take pictures because she couldn't help it. Likewise, the others did. At first, Emily and Cassandra were a little reserved, but after seeing Robin, they both felt comfortable taking photos. The four girls gathered around and began taking pictures of one another at the conclusion.

At the end, even Sauvik and Robin were made to suffer for this.

"Can this be shared on social media?" Cathrin enquired.

"Yes, if you're prepared to endure the heat." As he was certain she will, if the photos become viral, Robin stated.

"What? You are okay with us posting pictures on Instagram?" Rita was taken aback by Robin's approval.

"Yes. People will soon begin traveling to space. You just had a head start. What's surprising about that?" Robin enquired. This was true. Humanity would develop into a culture that could begin colonizing space in a few months. Thus, it would soon become the standard.

JARVIS, who was also on board the ship, called out of the blue as they were conversing to one another.

"Sir, Mr. Elon Musk and a few of the CEOs are on video call."

"Elon!? connect me to them. I will be in the study room." said Robin.

Because they were more intrigued by the space than by some dull meeting, the others chose not to follow him to the study. They had already witnessed Robin's interactions with international leaders, and they didn't like what they saw. The two space hostesses, however, were a little taken aback by Elon Musk's attempt to get in touch with Mr. Kashyap. This has already disproven a lot of their theories. Plus who just spoke on the call? Nobody else was here.

After settling inside the master bedroom's study, a hologram video started to play. More video displays then started to show. Once more, Robin had a mask covering his face.

"Umm hello Mr..." Elon said while stumbling. Both he and others didn't know how to address him.

"Just call me whatever you want. It's nothing of importance. I told before too that names are exaggerated." said Robin.

"We.. Well, as you can see, we took the ride into space..." While the others remained mute, Elon spoke. The others valued their lives and didn't want to say anything that would cause an accidental murder.

"I know. Did you like the spacecraft?"

"Well you see.. That.. We love your spacecraft and we would like to know if we can buy them?" Elon said at last. He didn't know if he would survive, but he was engrossed. He had long dreamed of Mars, and now that his wishes could come true, he didn't want to turn back. He was prepared to spend a lot of money on it.

"That's a good dream you have Mr. Musk. But no. The ships would initially only be leased. They could be bought later when I would determine that humanity has achieved stability. We would care for and operate the ships for the time being. Naturally, anyone from anywhere in the world is welcome to work in the space business. They can learn to pilot, join as crew members of the ship, explore the solar system and other nearby star systems and even bring back valuable materials with the help of the excavator ships. If they want they can even join the miliary too. But each and everyone of them would have to go through rigorous background checks." said Robin.

Everyone in the meeting lost their eager expressions as a result. They felt disappointed but were afraid to express it.

"Umm.. okay.. Are you really going to colonize the Mars?" Elon said while making an effort to mask his dissatisfaction.

"Yes. Whatever I've said, I intend to follow through on. You don't have to feel so disappointed, either. Soon, the ships will be available for purchase. I know what you want. The fuel technology and the artificial gravity. It will take you years to research, even if you acquire the ships and disassemble everything to grasp what we have done." Robin said as he exposed their real aims.
