Max tried the tier 3 promotion test 17 times however he failed it every single time 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 someway 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 meter 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 somehow 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.
