After the round of training, Arcturus dismissed the notification from the System, and he sat on the ground of the sparring ring with Jeniael, who also sat on the ground, because both of them were equally tired from several hours of intensive training.

Another day have passed as they were spending it mostly by training and sparring. Jeniael was very happy that she got another sparring partner, or rather first sparring partner because there was no one to fight against in the Special Course Class.

And logically, she could really go to spar against the students from the normal course because, apparently, they didn't really like those who were enrolled in the Special Course Class.

The combination of jealousy, hostility, and other things was bitch... so the best thing that Jeniael could do till now was fight against the bots or the computer simulations, but that wasn't really that thrilling or fulfilling like fighting against a real opponent.

As he looked through the status screen of the System, it was clear that he was growing stronger at a steady rate. Obviously, the area where he had grown the most during the past time that he spent in the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy was most obviously the Psionics.

Arcturus had to admit that the teaching standards at the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy were indeed superb, and he had advanced in Psionics by leaps and bounds. Even though he was aware that the Psionics would never really become his main forte, he needed to be at the level of it like any other genius or even beyond.

Nothing less than perfection was acceptable to him.

Jeniael was rather supportive of his efforts, and she often trained with him when he was fighting against her using only the Psionic Battle Arts and Psionic Skills and nothing else because that was a perfect exercise for him.

Because Jeniael was an Anti-Psion Knight, in essence, there was actually little to no danger when she was fighting Arcturus, who was using only his Psionic Skills. In this way, both of them were perfecting their own skills in different ways.

Jenaiel was getting used to fighting someone who was using exotic Psionic Skills and also had very powerful and potent Psionic Powers, while Arcturus was practicing his own Psionic Battle Arts while at the same time, he was learning how to deal with people who were trained to deal with Psykers and Psionics specifically.

Because she was helping Arcturus to train every single day, his progress was rather steady and a bit faster than he had initially anticipated, which was a very good thing for him. This was one of the main reasons why he had come to the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy in the first place and why he was giving the study all of his energy.

So, seeing that it was paying off finally, he was immensely satisfied inside.

From their spars, though, he wasn't the only one who was getting better because even Jeniael was getting better at dealing with "overpowered" Psykers and Psionics because this was the first time she was constantly fighting someone who had a ridiculous amount of the Psionic Energy.

This wasn't really that wrong because while Arcturus was just a Delta-Grade Psyker, the quantity of his Psionic Energy was lingering somewhere around Gamma-Grade or the peak of the Gamma-Grade, and the quality of his Psionic Energy was easily at the Alpha-Grade.

The number of irregulars like him could be counted on one hand in fact that had such properties of their Psionic Energy.

Certainly, it helped Jeniael a lot because she grew accustomed to fighting opponents whose Psionic energy was much, much stronger, which in turn allowed her to increase her control over the Holy Judgement of God.

"I was thinking..."

As he heard Jeniael saying something, Arcturus turned his eyes to her and was rather surprised...

"You were thinking... that is very rare occasion, who would have thought that you can think."

Arcturus spoke with a teasing grin as the young woman frowned heavily at that, she wanted to punch him in the face, but then again, she quickly stopped because that would only fuel his remarks and sarcasm at her.

"If such a monkey like you can think, then I can for sure. But enough of that, I was pondering if you are not interested in taking some missions from the Academy. I am already bored from being locked in this place; even though the training is good, I want some real action."

Hearing what Jeniael stated made Arcturus ponder over it for a while, because he too was eager for some action. He had to admit that since the time of his transmigration and the moment he obtained some form of real power, he became rather eager for combat.

Initially, he planned to remain in the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy for around six months or so, train here, attend seminars and lectures about the Psionics, and so on, so he could properly build up and finish his foundation.

Yet, at the same time, he was missing the lifestyle of the Star Mercenary and Bounty Hunter and the thrill of the combat. While sparring against Jeniael or the bots wasn't really that bad, and the facilities like the Augmented Hard-Light Holo Projection Training Room were absolutely stunning, it wasn't the same thing as fighting the real deal enemies.

"Ts... I originally planned to remain at the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy for some months, but I, too, would like to have some real combat."

In the end, seeing how intensively Jeniael was looking at him, it was clear that she really wanted to go out and that she didn't wish to go alone. Which was rather logical because going alone on the mission could be dangerous, especially in her situation when she didn't have backup like he had.

Only after arriving at the heart of the Eternal Empire of the Asurya, the Phoenix Prime realized how rare it was for someone privately owning Hyper-Advanced Growth-Typer Super Artificial Intelligence like Red Queen.

Even across the Empire, the number of people that owned something like that could be counted on one had...

Literarily, because aside from him, Arcturus found out from the publically known information that only four other people had Hyper-Advanced Growth-Typer Super Artificial Intelligence like Red Queen in their possession that was bonded to them through the Neural Extranet Terminal Gene Implants.

Hyper-Advanced Growth-Typer Super Artificial Intelligences were on the same levels as the Automatons in the Milky Way Galaxy or other similar species, so they were very rare.

To satisfy his own curiosity, he dug through the Extranet and found out that one was sold at the Auction that was held in the galaxy far away somewhere in the Desolate Cosmic Territory for several tens of billions of Universal Credits and was bought by some really powerful Beoynder.

It was a staggering amount of money and one of the records spent on something during the auction organized in the Desoalte Cosmic Territory. However, this only confirmed how rare something like a Hyper-Advanced Growth-Typer Super Artificial Intelligence was and how lucky Arcturus felt that he had chosen it to be his "gold finger".

"Okey, after we clean ourselves, we can go to the Mission Administration Office of the Academy and check up on some missions. Some Points would do only good."

Even though the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy allocated a lot of Points to the students of the Special Course Class, it wasn't actually that much for someone with high needs like Arcturus.

Due to his special circumstances of his own Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability and other things, Arcutrus needed an unreasonable number of resources to support his cultivation, and he already lamented the number of the Psionic Crystals that he would needed to reach the Gamma-Grade Psyker.

Such an amount would already give some much higher-graded Psionics and Psyker a headache about their future because it was like burning money. His intentions of coming to the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy were also for the resources that the Academy could provide him with and much faster and cheaper than buying through from the different parties.

"Excellent. You also have a Starship so that we could take a Mission to somewhere farther from the Phoenix Prime."

It was hard not to see the anticipation in her eyes as she spoke about traveling through space; she was almost too eager for someone who lived in an interstellar nation like the Eternal Empire of the Asurya.

"You seem too eager... like a bunny on batteries..."

Arcturus chuckled when he saw her anticipation because it was really highly unusual.

"Ts... even though I was born into the Eternal Empire of the Asurya, I wasn't really traveling through the stars, so every time there is an opportunity to travel through space, it's something special for me."

Jeniael stated that she wasn't really traveling through the stars, despite the fact that she was born into the most prestigious house within the High-Level Star Nation, like the Eternal Empire of the Asurya.

She spent most of her time in the homeworld of the House Luxford, training in sword skills and martial arts. Despite everything, she wasn't the one who was attending the various social gatherings and traveling across the Empire and enjoying the wealth like many of those who were born into the privileged status were doing.

Due to that, she was rather eager to be traveling through the stars once again. For Jeniael, space was always a wonderous thing, an enormous, vast space that was ready for exploration and discovery.

Not to mention, Arcturus was also someone who owned a Starship, apparently, and one that was a rather advanced warship. Within the Eternal Empire of the Asurya and even many other High-Level Civilizations and High-Level Star Nations, individuals rarely were able to own warships.

Much less being said about very advanced and powerful starships like the Obscurus, which was an Adjudicator-Class Capital Ship of the Mothership-Type. Such things would never be owned by the an individual, so she was rather surprised by the fact that Arcturus was able to own something like that.

Even among the citizens of the Eternal Empire of the Asurya or the members of the Noble Houses and Mercantile Clans, not many privately owned starships.

Because Arcturus owned a starship, it was much easier for them to go on Missions assigned by the Academy because they could go on a greater distance without needing to rent spaceships or borrow one from the Academy.

After they went to the showers in their respective rooms in the dormitory, both of them went to the Administration Office within the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy to take a look at the mission board.

Within the Academy, the Mission could be accepted only directly at the Administration Office by the students as it couldn't be done through the Imperial NetSpehre and the Neural Extranet Terminal Gene Implants.

While it was the annoying thing that they needed to go through half of the Academy's campus, which was already a small town in its own right. The Imperial Phoenix Military Academy was enormous by all standards, and there were several tens of huge buildings and around two hundred or so of the smaller buildings on the Academy campus.

One could even use a vehicle to move around the Academy's campus because the campus was so huge. After around twenty minutes of walking, they arrived at a huge building that was relatively plain looking; even from an afar, it was clear that this was a bureaucratic building, as they went inside.

Inside the building, it was bustling with activity, as one could see tens if not hundreds of students walking around and searching for the right terminal or Office where they were going.

Fortunately for Arcturus, it seemed that Jeniael was already here and knew the way to the Office, which was responsible for assigning the missions to the students of the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy, as they soon enough arrived at the private booth with the terminal.

When the terminal was lit on by Jeniael, who tapped something on the console center, they inserted there their student ID. Afterward, Jeniael immediately started skimming through the missions that the Academy had available and searched for something interesting.

Arcturus meanwhile remained on the side, as he decided not to meddle into this, seeing her overenthusiams for the thing.

"There it is. This one."

Suddenly, he was woken up by the excited shout; as he then took a look at the Mission description that she had chosen, and all that he needed was to read the title as he visibly cringed.

It was a Mission within the Nihilus Star Region, and most surprisingly, it wasn't really that far from the Planet Solits because the Mission was related to the Archanids, much to his dismay.

Not only that, the Mission was of the Extermination Type to make things even worse.

"Ziras IV., located within the Nihilus Star Region, Solitas Star Segment, Solitas Star Sector, Solitas Star Domain, Ziras Star System. Extermination of the Archanid Presence on the Ziras IV. and the reward is 100,000 Points."

Solitas Star Segment was the foremost battlefield against the presence of the Arachnids within the Nihilus Star Region, and the incursions from the bugs were more and more common there, it was one of the most dangerous places within the Empire.
