While he was quite satisfied with his progress, there was one issue.

"This is going to take longer than I expected," He muttered, turning to the distant figure of Squire Casen in the sky. "And even if she is a low-grade Martial Squire, it's not easy to commission Martial Squires constantly. I don't have that kind of money."

This obviously meant only one thing.

"I need to do missions if I am to continue commissioning her." Rui scratched his head.

He had considered buying a Squire-grade punching machine, before tossing the idea out the window.

"This technique needs to apply to more than just a punch. I need a Martial Squire training partner."

Project Bounce needed to work on all manners of striking attacks, it would be actually detrimental if he limited his training to mechanical and inorganic strikes.

"This will also be the first time I'm working on mastering techniques while also completing missions," Rui noted. "It's going to be a messy schedule."

While he could organize his training sessions well, it became harder to regulate the amount of time on missions, the types of missions he chose generally didn't allow him to predict the amount of time it would take to complete them.

"In which case, I should probably choose missions with defined time periods," Rui noted. "Ideally, long-term missions with defined timings would be perfect."

Though, those missions tended to have very low pay, unless he managed to get a real big shot to hire him as a bodyguard. In those cases, he would usually be doing nothing while earning really well.
