Star Citizen Online: Isekai Edition

Arcturus was familiar with the Civilization Tiering because it was a known concept to the Earth. Established by soviet physics Nikolai Semyonovich Kardashev, known as the Kardashev Scale.

The basic premise of the Kardashev Scale was to categorize civilization based on how much energy the civilization could produce and control. Later, many other side-factors were added to it, which helped perfect the scaling system.

The concept was also translated into the Star Citizen Online.

Type 1 Civilizations were the ones that mastered all the energy available to their home planet, available from a neighboring star. It extracts its energy, information, and raw materials from fission and fusion power, and renewable resources.

These Civilizations were capable of interplanetary spaceflight and communication; mega-scale planetary engineering; medical breakthroughs to eliminate disease and slow aging; they started spreading toward their home Star System and colonizing it and spreading beyond.

Type 2 were the Civilizations that controlled entire Star Systems and were able to harness the power equivalent to a single star. Which may seem like a little, but in fact, it was a tremendous amount of energy.

The Type Civilizations were able to extract fusion energy, information, and raw materials from multiple solar systems; they were capable of evolutionary intervention, interstellar travel, interstellar communication, stellar engineering, terraforming, and star cluster-scale influence; the resulting proliferation and diversification may negate the probability of extinction.

Type 3 Civilizations were the real players and most powerful ones in the known Galaxies as they were able to harness the power equivalent of the entire Galaxy. All of these Civilizations could extract fusion and exotic energy, information, and raw materials from their Galaxy.

They were capable of intergalactic travel via wormholes, intergalactic communication via subspace, galactic engineering and galaxy-scale influence. The peak of the Type 3 Civilizations could be considered by less developed species as Gods.

Within the Andromeda Galaxy, there were a few Type 3 Civilizations and The Eternal Imperium of Asurya was one of them and the Veredan Republic was apparently not far from being the Type 3 Civilization itself.

Now Arcturus partially understood why the Bloodskull Pirates were operating here...

No matter how many Type 1 Civilizations they robbed, they were too insignificant for the power of the level of The Eternal Imperium of Asurya or even Veredan Republic to act on them.

As he heard footsteps, he put his hand on his Power Sword and instantly rushed at the incoming group of five pirates armed with bladed weapons, though they were just ordinary cold weapons, albeit made from more durable materials.

With one swing of his Power Sword, one of the pirates was decapitated in an instant, as Arcturus turned around, kicking the one that was closest to his chest, sending the pirate crashing into the walls with tremendous force.

Immediately after, he hacked his sword forward at the next one, piercing through his neck.

Among the original five, two were dead, one was unconscious and two others were standing in front of him, looking at the man with Power Sword in horror, as they then looked at each other before they attacked together.

As both of them rushed at Arcturus, he dodged to the side, utilizing his muscle memory and memories of combat that he got from the Basic Swordsmanship that was on Level 5 Mastery, as he slashed his sword twice and sliced their necks.

Then he went to the pirate that was knocked out as he pierced through his skull, disposing of him as well.

"It seems that this is enough against the level of pirates, but against even someone much physically weaker, but with enough experience, I would be in danger. They are not used to someone fighting back or fighting in the close quarters at all..."

Arcturus knew that against the pirates, he was faring rather well, considering that they were not really a threat.

But while he was still attempting to remain rational and not get overly excited as he had just now killed around twenty of them, he knew against a trained opponent with proper equipment; he would probably lose.

The reason why he had an easy time was mostly because the pirates were not used to fighting someone like him and he had a very powerful weapon that was pushing him forward with ease.

This was a problem that he would need to rectify.

The Basic Swordmaship was good, but to be truly proficient in the arts of sword, he needed a proper sword style and proper battle experience that would supplement his superior superhuman physique.

The thing was, he was severely lacking in the battle experiences; simultaneously to that, his mind was still in the process of accommodation to the new body and everything that happened.

So, technically speaking, he was pretty lucky that the space pirates were the first opponents because he could accelerate the assimilation rate to the new reality. He also made a mental note to rectify the lack of experience by hiring someone to train with him to gain real life combat experiences.

Depending on the overwhelming strength, it wasn't the best thing that he could do in the future.

Though for now, he was advancing through the Light Cruiser of the Bloodskull Pirates with ease, occasionally cutting down the pirates. After half an hour, his robes were already drenched in the blood of the pirates, and he had a blank look in his eyes.

They said...

That the more one killed, the more indifferent they would grow to the concept of killing, and it has been indeed proven as truth because now, he didn't feel anything.

During his first kill, Arcturus felt nervous, excited and maybe even a bit aroused at the thought that he could just end someone's life as he wished.

But now, that he started clearing the ship from more and more pirates, the more the death count was increasing, the more he became. Even though he grew up in a morally oriented society, he believed only in one rule for his entire life.

Survival of the fittest and might makes right.

Even on Earth, while people were bullshitting about morality and equality, many knew that it was nonsense because those in power were "more equal than the others", so in the end, there was only one sole thing that mattered in life.

Power.

Now, he felt free...

Free to do what he wanted and to whom he wanted, he was always a violent type who enjoyed violence in some form...

And he found the combat to be thrilling and fulfilling, it was making him feel alive...
