Chereads / Legacy of Eldric: A Tale of Ruler / Chapter 5 - Power Ranking

Chapter 5 - Power Ranking

After they went to settle down Eldric summoned his system and saw a change in it. 

 

[Name: Eldric Balmore] 

[Household Name: None] 

[Power: None (Core damaged)] 

[Household Power: None] 

[Army: 5 Civilians] 

[Quests: None] 

Eldric tapped on the army column and the information of the 5 men appeared. 

 

[Name: Galen] 

[Age: 25] 

[Household: None] 

[Loyalty: 100] 

[Power: Tier 0] 

 

Everything was easy to understand. He looked through every person's information and realized they are loyal to him, and their strength is at Tier 0. He remembered that the system said that they could grow into powerhouses, and he wondered how they would grow in strength. Seeing as Tier 0 was for civilians he realized they took on the same power system as this world. 

The Power system goes like this: 

Civilians (Tier 0, Level 1 – 10) 

Man-at-Arms (Tier 1, Level 1 - 10): These are the trained professionals within the infantry. Ordinary knights rank at Tier 1. They serve the higher nobility, protect the kingdom, and uphold the rules of chivalry. They range from newly knighted individuals at Level 1 to seasoned veterans at Level 10. They are critical to the kingdom's defense. They serve their lords faithfully, and through exceptional service and skill, they may be elevated to the rank of a squire. These knights form the bulk of the kingdom's military might. 

 

Squire (Tier 2, Level 1 - 10): Squires are knights who serve a knight or higher-ranked noble. As they gain experience and prove their worth, they can rise to the rank of a full-fledged knight. According to the usual strength, the Viscounts and Barons are Tier 2 knights, each ruling over smaller territories within the kingdom. Although their power is more localized, they are still important figures in the kingdom's hierarchy, responsible for managing their lands and contributing to the kingdom's defense when needed. 

Knight (Tier 3, Level 1 - 10): The title of Knight is earned through rigorous training and a solemn vow to serve the kingdom. Earls are Tier 3 knights who govern large earldoms within the kingdom. While their military roles are less significant than the Dukes and Marquesses, they still hold significant influence and are responsible for maintaining law, order, and economic prosperity within their territories. 

Senior Knight (Tier 4, Level 1 - 10): These are the seasoned knights, proven on the battlefield, and trusted within their respective marquess. They often serve as the personal guards for the king and are entrusted with critical missions. Marquesses are Tier 4 knights that govern over the marches, the border territories of the kingdom. They command armies, maintain fortresses, and ensure the kingdom's security against external threats. They hold considerable power and are respected for their strategic skills and bravery. 

Master Knight (Tier 5, Level 1 - 10): Master Knights are the backbone of the kingdom's military force. They are the commanders in the field, tacticians, and experienced warriors who are relied upon during times of conflict. The Dukes are also Tier 5 knights, holding vast lands and leading large armies composed of knights of various levels. They are responsible for maintaining peace and prosperity within their duchies and owe their loyalty and military service to the King. The King, as the current ruler of Naloria, is a Tier 5, Level 10 knight. The King has administrative control over the kingdom and is responsible for its overall wellbeing. They possess considerable martial prowess, but their real strength lies in their leadership and strategic abilities. 

Champion Knight (Tier 6, Level 10): The most potent figure in the Kingdom of Naloria, the Champion Knight, holds the highest power and prestige. They command the respect of the entire kingdom and are renowned for their martial prowess and strategic acumen. They are the ideal of knighthood, representing valor, honor, and strength. The royal family's ancestor is the only Champion Knight in Naloria. This legendary figure holds the highest position of power and respect, both for their lineage and extraordinary martial abilities. The Champion Knight is a symbol of the kingdom's strength and unity, and their deeds are remembered in songs and stories throughout the land. They are the reason for the kingdom's stability. 

Oathbound Knight (Tier 7, Level 1 - 10): At this tier, we find the Oathbound Knights — individuals whose accomplishments have transcended the boundaries of their own kingdom. They are warriors of such skill and valor that their names are known far and wide, their exploits becoming the stuff of legends. 

Mythos Knight (Tier 8, Level 1 - 10): A step above even the Oathbound Knights is the Mythos Knights. These are knights whose power and deeds have reached such a level that they've become almost mythological figures. They are seen as more than just warriors, but as symbols of an ideal, figures of awe and reverence. Powerhouses capable of destroying several nations. 

Eonian Knight (Tier 9, Level 1 - 10): Eonian Knights are those rare few who have transcended even the level of myth. They are seen as almost divine figures, their power and wisdom unmatched. They are the paragons of chivalry and martial skill, embodying the highest ideals of knighthood. 

Primordial Knight (Tier 10, Level 1 - 10): At the very top of the hierarchy are the Primordial Knights. These are individuals who have surpassed all earthly limitations, reaching a level of power and wisdom that seems almost supernatural. They are revered as near-deities, individuals of such profound ability and insight that they have become living embodiments of knightly virtue and power. Destroying the kingdom of Naloria is as easy as sneezing for these Knights. 

Eldric thought about the power rankings. He only knew till the Tier 5 Knights what they could do. Anything above Master knight he has only read in books and even then the books were extremely vague due to the passage of time.

Finally came around to changing the names for the knights, sorry it took so long. I am slowly but surely, pacing through the pages. Let me know if there is something i missed based on what i announced.
