Max tried the tier 3 promotion test 17 tis however he failed it every single ti no matter how hard he tried.
For the first 3 failures he beleived that the technique suggested by the influencers in the forums was wrong and maybe he needed to experience it soway else , however after his 17th failed attempt he finally realised that it was simply him who could not pass this test.
This is when Max heard of a device called the mana flow index ter which was available to use at a specific church in vanaheim the kingdom of the elves.
Max wondered if he could get the help of his other sister-in-law Ruby to sohow access it, however soon rejected the idea considering the fact that he did not know her personally.
Max had heard a lot of stories about Ruby from both Naomi and Rudra himself and had a general understanding of her nature and her bearing.
To be honest Max found Ruby to be incredibly beautiful and exactly his type of beauty as well however he did not let any wrong ideas seep into his brain since Ruby was already his brothers wife.
The problem with going to vanaheim without Ruby's recomndation was that he would need to build rit with the church of light , as only rit with the church could be exchanged for a chance to use that device and Max was not a follower of the light but instead a mber of the church or death.
This ant that he needed to sohow get the help of Ruby even if it was a bit embarassing and to do so he needed to actually ask help from the elites guild.
Max opened his inbox and scrolled all the way to the top , where sir Jhonny had sent his in-ga ID an invite to join the True Elites Guild a long ti ago.
Initially Max did not plan to join his brothers guild, however after finding no alternatives , Max decided to go for it as he accepted the invite and beca a mber of the number one guild in all of Oga.
Instantly he recieved a system notification saying he had beca a part of a guild , and he recieved the guilds signature clothes and sigil to be worn over those robes.
Max swapped his clothes for the guild robes and to be honest he was extrely proud as he did it. He had seen Rudra countless tis in these robes and dreamt about wearing it himself one of these days , hence when he got the chance to do so he was incredibly happy.
Walking straight into the inner city and towards the true elites headquarters Max could not help but feel butterflies rising in his stomach as this was one of the monts he had dread over and over again as a kid.
The guards standing infront of the guild headquarters saw his robes and sigil and allowed him entry into the vast platinum grade estate of the elites as Max strolled straight in and towards Alia's reception.
Currently 99% of the guild was empty and hardly a few people could be seen in the guild grounds, this was because most were present in the war in hell , while those who were here were either killed in action and returned out just like he did , or essential personnel that were needed to run the city.
When he finally walked into the guilds reception area and saw Alia dilligently working there he felt like he had jumped straight into a day in the life of his brother as he had seen this sa clip countless tis as his brother would pass through the guild hall and nod at Alia before entering his office.
Every sighting of Rudra was forum worthy material and many guild mbers hence sneakily took videos of him to be posted on the forums.
Approaching Alia nervously , Max said " Hello , umm , i need so help Aunt Alia".
Alia looked irked as she lifted her head from the book she was reading and said " Brat , cut the crap, tell what you need and then go spy on so other innocent won ".
" THAT WAS AN ACCIDENT " Max blushed as he shouted in his defense.
It was sothing that had happened long ago when Max was only 7 or eight years of age , he was chasing after a bug and had accidentally entered the won's hot springs area in the upside , glancing at naked giggling and laughing to herself for no reason as she murmured the na of his brother, as an complete accident.
What followed was 2 hours of rciless scolding by Alia who stressed how he was the first boy to ever see her naked and how he could never speak about this day to anyone.
Recalling that incident Max suddenly found Alia muttering the na of his brother to be SUS AF , raising an eyebrow Max was about to say ' Wait a damn minute ' when he looked into the ice cold eyes of Alia and swallowed his words back down.
After a while Alia sighed and said " What do you want? "
Max replied " I want to go to the palace and et the queen ".
" Why? ". Alia asked as she began reading the book once more , much less on guard against the boy now since she knew what he wanted.
" Personal reasons ". Max replied and Alia did not pry futher.
Alia had been initially worried that Max was going to leverage his position as Rudra's brother and ask for sothing truly precious from the guilds warehouse , however it turned out to be a pretty reasonable request in the end.
Writing him a letter of recomndation, Alia said " Show it to the guard outside ".
With that she waved him off and went back to reading her book. Max politely thanked her and took the letter and ran towards the palace which was actually not that far away.

( anwhile Rudra )
Rudra was a bit bold sprinting towards Lucifer as he did, however it was for a good reason.
Seeing how he was moving rapidly towards the devil , Hades instantly advanced the second and third legion into a charge not wanting to waste any opportunity that Rudra was planning to create while also personally moving towards the capital to eventually engage in combat with the devil.
Lucifer who was completely focused on killing this human he hated so much , prepared one of his most sinister attacks for Rudra to face which was called the ' Rib Crusher'.
It was essentially an ironclad grip made out of darkness mana which would constrict around an opponent like a vice and crack his bones till he died.
It was an extrely cruel and devilish move and Lucifer found it fit for soone like shakuni.
Rudra waited till he was 20 ters infront of the devil and just as he watched the devil twitch his eye muscle very slight he imdiately used blink to marginally escape the attack unleashed by Lucifer.
It was one of the qualities he had understood about reading enemy movents fighting sariel and Micheal , which was that the Archangel's constricted their eyes before launching any attacks.
When Rudra saw Lucifer do the sa he instantly used blink which was the only reason why he barely got away from the fast attack that Lucifer launched at a re 20 ter range.
Appearing behind him at a distance of 200 ters , Rudra continued to fly opposite to the devil as the enraged fallen angel followed him like a hawk.
When Hades saw Lucifer pull away from the wall his lips curled into an upward smile as he comnded the bravery of his first commander.
Even Omar who hardly let his face show his emotions broke out into a wide grin as he mouthed the words " What a guy .... ".
Even the beast king was in awe of the contributions the mortal made to the war effort as the situations he created with his calm and calculated planning were often nothing short of miracles.
Able to exploit the opening the gods started to push back the tier 4 and 5 demon troops defending the city back with powerful spells as the other troops managed to break through and enter the city through the gaps in the walls without facing elimination from widespread AOE spells.
Naturally there were still a lot of casualties as running through open plains towards a defended area was never easy and not to ntion the ground being scorching hot due to there being flas burning over it not long ago , but the casualties were much less than the demons would have wanted and soon two legions managed to swarm the city gates and create an opening for the army of death in this fight as the other legions soon followed suit.
The elite legion coming in the hottest , as the super charged elite mbers fought like madn straight from the get-go to prove their loyalty to their guildmaster.
