Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player
Chapter 346: The Knight ClassChapter 346: The Knight Class
( Meanwhile Luke )
Luke also opened his information pack and the vision that he was shown shocked him
******
The scene began with a young knight in a vast training ground.
Clad in simple armor, he practiced his swordsmanship, executing precise, repetitive movements, while around him, other knights trained diligently, their focus unwavering.
To Luke, this scene reminded him of his academy days, as while the training grounds were not as modern as those in his academy, the vibe surrounding the place was exactly the same.
The young knight, who seemed to be the main character of this information pack, was then approached by a seasoned veteran who demonstrated a powerful defensive stance followed by a swift counterattack.
The veteran spoke to the young knight, “To graduate from becoming a squire knight to an actual knight, you must learn how to harmonize offense and defense.
You must become one with your sword and your shield, making your defense as impenetrable as your attack is unstoppable.You weapons should be an extension of limbs while your Armor should be your second skin”
The young knight followed the veteran’s example, practicing until his movements were fluid and precise.
The vision emphasized the importance of mastering both defense and offense as the foundation of becoming a proficient knight.

(Scene Change)
The scene changed, and Luke saw himself overlooking a battlefield where the young knight, now a more seasoned warrior, seemed to be a member of a Knight’s Order, participating in a war under the leadership of a senior Knight.
The senior knight’s armor was more ornate compared to the young man’s, denoting his higher rank and experience as he led his squad into a dangerous battle.
The battle was short and vicious, however, the senior knight led his troops to perfection, scoring a vital win, without the loss of a single man.
After a victorious battle, the senior knight addressed his troops, as he said “A Knight Captain is not just a warrior but a leader who inspires and directs.
I won’t forever be your captain and sooner or later one of you needs to fill my shoes.
Being a Knight is much more than merely being a warrior, as a True Knight is a beacon of hope and a pillar of strength for those who follow you.”
The vision highlighted the knight’s ability to inspire and command his troops, demonstrating the evolution path for a normal knight to undertake, from being merely a skilled fighter to also becoming a skilled leader.

(Scene Change)
The scene transitioned to a grand hall where the young knight, now a middle aged man with thick beard, walked into a throne room with the head of a hydra beast in his hands.
His Armor now looked even more impressive than the seasoned knight in the previous scene, as he looked more like a walking tank rather than a human.
“Sir Cole, you have successfully killed the Hydra monster. As promised, I offer you the hand of my daughter in marriage” The King said, as he offered the hand of his beautiful daughter in marriage to the middle aged knight, however, the man shook his head and refused.
“I refuse to marry your daughter, King, it’s against my moral code to marry a woman out of coercion.
She does not love me and as I knight I cannot force her to marry me if she does not.
Killing the Hydra was my duty as a citizen of this Kingdom… so while I thank you for your reward, I also don’t need it” The knight refused, as he chose to uphold his moral character as a man rather than giving in to the lust.

(Scene Change)
The final vision placed Luke as an observer on a mountain peak, where he saw an elderly knight standing alone.
Luke knew it was the same man from all the previous scenes, however, the power that he exuded in this scene, was unlike anything he did before, elevating him to a state that made him almost unrecognizable from before.
With a casual flick of his wrist, he punched the air, sending a shockwave that obliterated a distant mountain peak.
The sheer magnitude of his power was staggering, a testament to him having reached the ultimate mastery of the Knight class.
The final vision hence conveyed the peak of knighthood, where a Grand Master Knight’s strength could reshape the world with a single gesture.

(Return to Reality)
Luke was left breathless as the vision faded, the weight of what he had witnessed settling upon him.
The path of a Knight was long and grueling, but the rewards that could be gained were definitely beyond anything he had imagined.
“The vision showed me the four stages of knighthood.
The Squire Knight.
The Knight Captain.
The Master Knight
And
The Grandmaster Knight.
Corresponding to the mastery levels of my class, it should be basic, intermediate, advanced and perfect.
Currently, I’m at the Knight Captain stage…. So according to my vision I need to focus on becoming a leader alongside a warrior to perhaps move on to the next stage” Luke concluded, as he drew some direct and important insights from the vision he had just witnessed.
“I’m confused about what the master stage incorporates for a knight…. As the master state did not show any battle scenes, but rather showed the Knight upholding morals and being an upright man.
According to my conversation with Cervantez, the class that everyone was assigned by the game was done after analyzing their personality.
Maybe everyone who has the power to become a morally upright citizen got chosen to be a knight?
But that can’t be right…. Not every knight that I’ve met is decent…..
Hmmm, this one is hard” Luke thought, as he could not figure out the secrets of the ‘Master’ stage, however, he did find the power of a Grand Master level knight to be something extremely cool.
Well, the master level is still a far cry away from me, so no point worrying about how to become a grandmaster knight, just yet.
