Rudra spent the next half day reaching level 30. After reaching level 30 he changed his entire gear to the new lv30 armour set straight out of his guild inventory . 

He called out his stats pannel

He had basically scrapped all of his equipment for the reincforced armour set. As a set effect it reduced weight by 70% and increased defense by 15% above the aldready given defensive boosts. It was hands down the best forgable equipment in the game at this stage.

Rudra took in a deep breath , this was as prepared as he could get to attempt the tier promotion quest. A tier promotion quest varied from class to class for every gamer. 

There were no hidden methods to get legendary classes or such things in 'Omega' however that did not mean there were no special classes. 

The method to obtain special classes was open to whosoever had the strength to take it. That was through tier promotion quest. This was done to prevent discrimination between players , although luck plays a huge role in a gaming world like 'Omega', the creators wanted the game to be fair for those who had even the trashiest luck , with enough skills anyone can get a legendary class. However that was only available after tier3.

After unlocking your tier 1 you get the first class specific skills that are upgragable. These are the most vital skills that all members of that class need that are otherwise almost unavailable as skill scrolls or item drops. 

For example , say you are an archer , the skill [Hawkeye] is one of the most important skill for you , which maybe granted depending on your performance in the trial. 

Or if you are a hunter you get the skill [track] 

The skills you get from the trial depend on your own performance.

Getting D grade assesment you get trash skills 

Getting C grade assesment you get random skills that are better than D grade ones but still trash .

Getting B grade assessment you get random skills

Getting an A grade assesment means you get to select from all availabe skills in the trial 

Getting a S grade assessment you get to choose from all availabe skills + a random special skill 

Getting SS grade assesment you get to choose from all availabe skills + a chance to choose from all special skills. 

Getting SSS assesment you get to choose from all class specific skills + a legendary subclass option

( Only available at tier 1 promotion) 

Even if you dont unlock legendary subclass you still unlock the subclass option after being successfully promoted , then the system asks you to choose from the normal range of subclasses. 

Rudra had no extravagant plans to get special subclasses , the Bombmaker subclass was available in the normal options. Hence he was just aiming at getting S or SS assessment for the option of that special skill. 

Rudra headed to the hall of knights for the first tier promotion. In ' Omega ' , each major profession had their own halls. Tier 1-3 promotion quests had to be done at those halls itself. 

First time inside the knights hall , he first needed to register himself .... As he approached the reception he was met by a very peculiar catwoman. 

Rudra had experience in the game ' Omega' hence he knew that there are many NPC races , however this woman was very peculiar , he could not inspect her stats at all and there was a golden glow in her eyes. This was something new .... He never saw this woman in his previous life ..... Is she an important NPC ? Why cant he inspect her stats? .

The NPC also gauged him for a bit before saying " Welcome adventurer , how may i help you? " 

" Hi, im here to register myself as a knight and take the first tier promotion test please ". Rudra said politely 

The NPC'S golden eyes sparkled. She said " Ohh , you are quite the famous one arent you ..... Hmmm, hmmm not bad achievements for a very yound adventurer. Sure let me reguster you ". 

Rudra was getting nervous now , this NPC could see his stats .... She was definitely not simple .... Just who was she? 

" No need to be so nervous kid , im not going to eat you.... You are the first adventurer blessed by the Goddess of life to walk into the Knight hall and your strength doesn't dissapoint. Go complete the trial , based on your performance ill have a offer for you". The beastwoman said. 

The pressure to perform just increased tenfold ..... He knew that there are some hidden quest conditions here but had absolutely no idea what will satisfy to trigger it , he just had to do his absolute best and hope that its enough. 

With how strong the NPC seems , it cant be anything ordinary , but just what might it be?? ughhh!!!! Rudra felt frustrated, ever since reincarnating he always had information as his key weapon. Never was he clueless or hopeless like now. He had absolutely no idea what was going to happen. 

However the unknown motivated him.... He was going to enter the test thinking of getting by with an S grade however this changed everything .... Now he would try do his absolute best..... Lets see what happens.

Resolute he walked into the trial chambers and a system notification rang.

Welcome to the hall of knights , here you shall be tested and only the worthy shall advance in the way of the knights. Prepare yourself adventurer .
