Star Citizen Online: Isekai Edition

"Your talent for the way of the sword is indeed staggering."

Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellir stated calmly as Arcturus sat across from the elderly grandmaster, the man's purple eyes seeming to penetrate directly into his soul.

He always had such a gaze, like he could see through someone with a single look and know all of his secrets, to the degree that it was becoming uncomfortable in a certain sense. He didn't know if it was just his thing or if it stemmed from his power because he knew that the elderly-looking man was someone very, very powerful.

Now that he awoke as Esper and had Psionic Energy, Arcturus could at least subconsciously feel the strength of the other people. Nothing concrete or precise, but he could tell if someone was very powerful.

The feeling he got from Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellir was the same, or rather, it was his instinct that told him that because even his senses told Arcturus that Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellir was no different from an ordinary human.

"You have good potential in the way of the Sword, and your Esper Ability is something that is not seen even once every few centuries. So, I have a proposal for you. I want to take you as my fourth and final disciple."

In fact, Arcturus wasn't really surprised by this as he tried to control his expression. He knew that this would allow him to obtain superior backing within the structure of the Eternal Imperium of Asurya.

"I would be honored, Master."

He immediately stood up and gave the Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellir a bow, as he immediately accepted the proposition of the Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellir.

"At the latter, I would give you a badge that signifies that you are my disciple. Now that you have officially become my apprentice, you shall start learning to properly control your Psionic Energy through a specific control method, and then we will start learning advanced sword techniques."

He had already waited for a long time because, right now, Arcturus lacked the proper method to control his Psionic Energy. Scouring the Extranet and Imperial NetSpehere, he obtained only several inferior ones, but he aimed for something higher and more powerful.

The problematic aspect of the Psionic Energy Control Methods was that when one started using one that wasn't of the best quality, there could be some really nasty unforeseen side effects.

Especially in his case because he had awakened Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability, meaning that his Psionic Energy was extremely potent and dense, so the ordinary Psionic Energy Control Method was not effective for him.

If he used it, he would create more problems for him than it was worth, probably even some very severe hidden injuries. Unfortunately, the other more advanced Psionic Energy Control Methods were not really available for sale, or if they were, the prices were around several billion Universal Credits.

The owners of the Psionic Energy Control Methods were guarding them with extreme jealousy and prejudice. The original versions of the Psionic Energy Control Methods were even pricier because the things that were being sold in various auction houses or by various businesses were only copies.

"Learning to control your Psionic Energy properly is the first step on the path to becoming a proper Esper. Without the proper Psionic Energy Control Methods corresponding to your Esper Ability, you wouldn't be able to advance. Considering that you have awakened Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability, the Nuclear Chaos Formula would suit you perfectly."

Grandmaster Arist Byrmellir was one of the few people within the entire Eternal Imperium of Asurya who also had the Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability. Actually, there were not many such people even across the entire known universe.

From this perspective, Grandmaster Artis Byrmellir was the best person to teach Arctrurus the Psionic Energy Control Method because they shared the Esper Ability of the same grading.

"Espers who awakened Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability often have very arduous time when it comes to the control over their Psionic Energy. Most of them even fail to properly develop control over their Psionic Energy in their entire lifetimes, so you will need to work this extra hard if you want to succeed."

Arcturus was absorbing every single word that Grandmaster Artis Byrmellir spoke as he eagerly awaited what was coming.

"The Nuclear Chaos Formula is the Psionic Energy Control Method that I personally created with an old friend of mine several centuries ago. The basic premise of the Nuclear Chaos Formula is to achieve the circulation of the Psionic Energy through the principles of the Primal Nuclear and Chaos of Order."

After that, he saw a confused expression on the face of his disciple as the old man chuckled to himself.

"There is no need to think too deeply about those words because you won't be able to comprehend them the first time. You will understand that sooner or later after you start practicing the Formula. The basic principle is to achieve the Chaotic Circulation within your Psionic Energy; after you achieve this stage, you can start two things.

The first is to train the control itself, and the second is to advance through the Grades of Esper Ranks."

After saying that, Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellit stood up from his place and walked away. He then returned with an intricately crafted leather book. This was certainly a rare sight because, within this age, seeing something written on paper or in physical form was very rare.

Though not as rare as one would expect because most of the high-grade techniques and basically everything was written on the material form, nothing was documented electrically, just for safety.

In the age where there were countless artificial intelligences, some of which could unleash apocalypse if not under strict control or the existence of extremely powerful Espers that acted as deterrents to that, it was much safer to write certain kinds of information on paper.

Just to be sure.

"This is one of the very few copies of the Nuclear Chaos Formula of the Psionic Energy Control Method... you should start with the basic entrance to the Nuclear Chaos Formula, and after you study it enough, you will start practicing and achieve the first stage of the circulation.

From what you said, your Psionic Energy is extremely chaotic, so the Nuclear Chaos Formula will create the stable energy flow."

Grandmaster Arsit Byrmellir explained this to his newest disciple as Arcturus started reading the booklet that the man had passed to him.

"Per your order, master."

Arcturus immediately started studying the introductory chapters of the Nuclear Chaos Formula. After several minutes of reading, he felt that he had a pretty strong headache, as he didn't understand approximately half of what was written there.

In this area, the Red Queen was especially helpful because she filled the gaps in his information, and the Neural Extranet Terminal Gene Implants enhanced his learning capabilities to a great degree.

The introductory chapter to the Nuclear Chaos Formula wasn't long; on the contrary, it was a rather short reading and rather simplistic, in his opinion. In a few hours, Arcurusus already knew the most basic principles behind the usage of the Nuclear Chaos Formula and its usage.

Now, all that remained was to put the newfound knowledge into practice and achieve the first stage of circulation.
