6 Chapter 6

Back in his room, Renato was apprehensive about turning on the holocrons. This was because all the knowledge he had of the Jedi made him know that if they knew he was using the dark side, the training would stop.

It was during this period of thinking that the metaphorical light bulb went off in his head. This idea was because of remembering something that A'nang said previously. He said that he couldn't find any force presence on the holocrons. This meant at least these two holocrons were only an A.I gatekeeper with restrictions on knowledge sharing.

This meant that he could metaphorically reprogram the A.I, and he had just the right engineers to do this type of work. He quickly collected the two holocrons and visited the huragoks. He had to stop on the way to collect paddy so that she could translate for him. This gave him another idea.

"Paddy, where are the bots you collected yesterday?"

"Oh, those? I already gave them to the huragoks. Don't worry young master, as your personal assistant it is my duty to ease your work."

"Oh, ok thank you," replied Renato sheepishly, and they eventually reached the huragok who were floating aimlessly near repaired droids. But it looked like the droids were still not activated.

"Paddy, can you ask the huragoks why the droids haven't been activated?"

Both Paddy and huragoks communicated with each other, and then immediately they started working on something with the droids

"Apparently they fixed them up but most of them were missing parts, so I gave them the go-ahead to cannibalise other droid parts to make as many of them working as possible and also to make sure that the transceiver must be one item that must be fixed compulsorily."

"You read my heart, Paddy"

"Of course, as a personal assistant, it is my duty to expect and prepare for your needs."

"You know you are a free droid, right? You don't need to be my personal assistant anymore; you can be anything?"

"I know, but I still want to do this."

"Well, ok then, I was just checking"

They turned back to see that the huragoks, finished the cannibalization process. After the cannibalising, the only droids that remained were 5 mouse droids, one protocol droid, one medical droid and the Holonet transceiver. They cannibalised the other mouse droids and the utility droid. The droids were then connected to the charging station and started charging.

"Ok now as the droids finish charging, they will wake up, in the meantime, can you ask the huragok to take a look at these holocrons and if it is possible to merge them together while also making the new gatekeeper's loyalty programmed to me?"

Renato wanted to try this because he remembered that there was a great Jedi Holocron in the Jedi temple at crocusant he wanted to see if two holocrons could be combined and if yes then he could keep combining any future holocrons he obtained before he eventually made a great holocron for his future order.

Paddy nodded and translated to the huragoks and they quickly took the holocrons from him and quickly did their thing on them. But this time, something was different. As soon as they finished doing their thing, they gave the new Holocron to him and then talked with Paddy and then turned and started floating away.

"Apparently they have enough new knowledge to create a new huragok so they are going to collect materials to build it."

"Really, that is good news!"

It really was good news, more huragoks were always good news. Now that he had finished doing his work, he had gone back to his room.

But the moment he was about to open the Holocron the spirit of A'nang appeared out of his crystal.

"Young one, do not be so hasty. I will give you my first valuable advice now. Learning force abilities without grounding oneself in the force is the suicide of your true self.

Your emotions and feelings will be either increased exponentially or cut off entirely. Initially, your body will reject this and you will feel the effects, but if you continue to use them without proper grounding, your body stops fighting the feeling and starts changing your physical body to adapt.

This is what is known as the fall. Most people fall into bogan or the dark side, as you call it, and become controlled by their base desires. But what isn't shown more commonly is that there is also a fall for Ashala or the light side.

If you fall into Ashala, then you will slowly lose your sense of self, and become more and more disconnected from the common world at large. The only way to fight the fall is to move to another extreme.

But as all good things are in life, the best is in the middle of the extremes."

"Thank you for your warning and lesson master. I will heed your advice and stop further training with force abilities until I am ready."

A'nang just nodded and disappeared. Renato wiped the sweat off of his brow. He almost messed up there. Even knowing that force was not to be trifled with he had almost succumbed to it, he had to be more careful with the use of force if according to what A'nang said, you can even fall in the light side.

Seeing that there was no force teaching for today, he focused on his education next.

Thus, he went back to the fixed up Holonet transceiver and saw if he could connect to the Holonet.

After checking it, however, he found that the holonet relay was not working. Luckily, it wasn't completely damaged as the relay's location still showed up floating around the orbit of the planet.

"Hey Paddy, it looks like the Holonet relay is not working, do you have any idea why?"

"Why don't you take the ship and ask the huragoks to repair it, young master?"

"Aren't they busy building a new huragok?"

"Apparently it takes 2 to 3 days to collect the material, so they can come with you for now."

"Okay then, please call them up. We are going to fix the relay which is in orbit."

So, with one more trip to space, this time with the help of huragoks, they opened the airlock and Renato used telekinesis to pull the relay into the ship, the huragoks then went all out with the relay. When they finished, it didn't even look the same.

Before it looked like a deep ocean buoy with satellite dishes sticking out of it. Now it looks like a huge sphere. After that, they quietly deployed the relay, while making slight corrections to put it into orbit, and they were done.

After testing, it showed that they could connect to the holonet. Seeing that it was working, they landed the ship back on the planet. Now that he had a holonet connection, he had started diving in to explore the Holonet.

After some searching, it quickly became apparent that even though it looked like the Holonet was a synonym to the internet, it was actually not the internet. There was no true intergalactic singular holonet.

Each planet had its own holonet and if you wanted to connect to another planet's holonet you needed to remake the connection through an interplanetary relay which was typically expensive so there were only interplanetary relays in core and mid rim planets with only major planets in the outer rims having some. Luckily, the Holonet relay made by the huragok was completely able to seamlessly switch between the different holonets making the process much easier.

He also finally found the year it was 57 BBY and since there hasn't been a Battle of Yavin yet it was actually 943 ARR, Other than that there was also the fact that the holonet was run over by shitty pop-up ads which made navigating through it pretty hard. After some time trying to search through all the shit, he was getting frustrated when he was stopped by paddy.

"Young master, please let Paddy do the work. Just tell me what you want."

"Sigh, okay,

1. I want you to research and compare different educational curriculums from the top 10 worlds and compile a curriculum for me. Major topics of interest include technology, business, law, and other things you think I need to learn.

2. I want you to look into the programming of teaching droids so that you can teach me as effectively as possible because my days will probably be packed.

3. I want the designs of construction droids and I don't care if they are outdated.

4. Search through the news for anything related to us.

That is all for now."

"Okay, young master, it will be completed in 15 minutes. You can do something else in the meantime."

Accepting her help, Renato checked on the experimental data on him instead. As he slowly read through all the data, he made some observations. Number one it looked like Paddy already knew that he needed to eat more because of his explosive growth, as he remembered her giving him food while he was distracted and him eating it distractedly.

According to the analysis, he was going to be huge, like 7 feet tall because of the Sephi genes, and he would not be lanky like them because of the high metabolism of the chiss.

Reading through the experimental data gave an answer to a question he had been asking himself ever since he had gotten the knowledge from Halo. Did he want to get spartan augmentations? And the answer was, definitely.

It also cemented the fact about himself that he understood. He wasn't the type to give up on advantages if there weren't significant problems. This will also fit in with his future fighting style as his main battle style will be Spartan style.

Don't get him wrong, Renato loved lightsabers as much as any other Star Wars fan did, but the efficiency of the Spartan long-range fighting was much higher in most cases throughout the galaxy. This means that he will be keeping the lightsaber training if and ever he gets into a close-range battle.

Another factor that affected this decision was him not having partners for lightsaber training. Now that he decided that his fighting style would be like the spartan, the next step was to plan for the augmentations. He decided to go full augmentations, carbide ceramic ossification, muscular enhancement lining, pulmonary polymer lining, Occipital Capillary Reversal, Corneal Implants, Cardiac Implants, Artificial Pancreas Implant, Artificial Platelet Injections, Superconducting Fibrification of Neural Dendrites.

The only thing he didn't consider using was the hormone catalyst because he already had a super growth rate and was going to be massive even without it.

The final list was now a mix of Spartan II's and IV's augmentations, but he wasn't about to take the augmentations anytime soon, so he didn't need to worry. He also wanted to use this time to further research medicine and augment knowledge from the SW universe to see if there were methods to further increase the effectiveness, or at least decrease the risk of the procedures.

"Young master, I have finished the tasks you gave me"

"Oh? So, what are the eventual results?"

"Beginning from the last one, there was only a small article about the ship being stolen. I have found the blueprints of a construction droid that were apparently scrapped because of a massive programming error, making them unusable. I also made a curriculum for you. By the time this curriculum is finished, you will be able to become the best of the best diplomat, scientist, businessman, pilot, military strategist and tactician, and even a teacher."

"Uh? Paddy, isn't the curriculum too big?"

"Oh no, I factored in your increased intelligence while making this curriculum. Combined with your Jedi training, you will become the best organic you can become."
