Rudra set a very tight schedule for himself for the next 1 month. Ethan Grey had built a mega University inside the upside , the Elite academy , within 3 weeks time. He had spent a fortune to speed up the project and the facility was 90% functional.

  The academy had state of the art training grounds that could possibly be used to train MI6 Agents . When Rudra was reported about the matter , he was overjoyed as he told Ethan that he was right on time with the project completion.

  Rudra had made a very tight training regime , that Everyone participating in the VR Olympics had to mandatorily follow. While , to other Elites it was optional , should they choose to join the training they could.

  The regime would be a harder version of what Rudra was planning to give to academy students that would enroll after the VR Olympics.

  The training time for VR Olympics for japan was between 4-7 pm daily. Hence Rudra first assigned the 4-9 slot for VR training.

  Even after the mandatory 3 hour training was over. Rudra wanted to personally oversee the training of the other members. Check their growth and guide them at what areas they could improve on.

  The members who were participating in the VR Olympics were all the core strength of the guild. It would not be an exaggeration to say that if the guild was a house, they were the pillars on whom the guild was built .

  The sturdier these pillars were , the taller the building would rise. Rudra's regime started 7 am in the morning.

  The first session was physical training. Everyone was to gather at the Elite tower at 7 am sharp every morning and from there the 4 km jogging would start towards the university.

  The purpose of the jog was to warm the body up before the coming excercise as well as develop cardiovascular strength. During the jog , Rudra asked them to run behind him in files of three and follow his lead in stretching exercises while jogging.

  Rudra expected a 20 minute jog to reach the university , After a small water break the real hellish training would start . Everything ranging from weight training to conditioning to isometric excercises would be compulsary for all members , with personal coaches supervising every member.

  This would last for 1 hour untill 8 : 25 am , following which the members would alternatively do reflex training / weapons training.

  Sword weilders would be made to train with swords. Heavy sword wielders would be made to learn heavy sword fighting , archers would be made to do bow training , etc . A professional coach would train the members about the basics and foundation of each of the weapons they chose to weild , but would make sure not to change the overall style they fought with in game. The purpose of the training was just to broaden the horizons about the actual use of the weapon.This training session would last 1 and a half hour till 11 am.

  While the last session of the day would be martial arts training . Everyone irrespective of the class would be made to train in very basic hand to hand martial arts and internal energy flow techniques .

  Rudra did not expect Anyone to become martial arts prodigies , however he knew for a fact that the martial arts would help the players in more than one difficult situation. This session would last 1 hour till 12 . Then a short lunch break session at the University would be made daily where diet by expert nutritionist would be served tailor made for each member. The food would be rich in protein and other essential vitamins and minerals , that would ensure that the trainings effects on the body would be maximum. This would last uptill 12 : 30 exact.

  Rudra was happy with this arrangement , at 12:30 the team would then enter the virtual world and go together on dungeon runs and levelling sprees.

  Rudra would only go for dungeons that he was sure to clear under 3 hours as the 4 pm training was of paramount importance.

  In the next month Rudra wanted each player to increase their strength as much as possible , he would personally oversee their training and help them with the stat distribution after each level up , depending on what event they were participating in and what skill they lacked , Rudra wanted to help them accordingly.

  Rudra's goal was to level up once every 3 days hence gain a total of 10 levels before the Olympics start. While for those that would take the tier promotion test , Rudra reserved one free day in his month long calender , for the tier promotion exam.

  Rudra did not want a single Elite to go into the Olympics as a tier 1 player , and although he was the only tier 2 player in the guild as of now , he would change that in the coming month.

  Rudra sat down and wrote atleast 20 quests that he remembered that would give decent equipment as reward , and posted it on the task board. For the first time since the guilds establishment the guild task board was full of missions.

  While the government would do their best to support every player's equipment needs , Rudra liked to depend on himself first. He knew that a very brutal month was ahead of the Elites the next four weeks would be hell for them , however he had a strong belief that only through this could the guild truly stand strong at the world stage.

  Rudra in a extremely sly move then decided to call a guild meeting the very day inside the guild hall of the Elites tower in the real world.

  The guild meetings were only held at important occasions hence it was always a full attendance event . Rudra took the stage , and looked across at the cheery room , then Rudra gave the audience a very kind smile , those who did not know Rudra too well thought that the guild leaders heart was warm seeing all the guild members and that he was happy.

  However Fatty Kalash and Karna had chills down their spine …… They knew that this was the smile Rudra gave to his enemies on the battlefield when something disastrous was about to happen to them.

  They had a bad premonition about today's meeting , they gulped their saliva and prayed that their intuition was wrong.

  Rudra said " Guild members , today I have a gift for all of you ".

  Cheers broke out in the entire room. It was gifting season!

  Rudra continued " I know most of you are relegious followers of the news about Omega , hence it is not a secret to you guys. Cuber corporation released the VR pods , with a sync rate of 99.99% , a full 4.99% better than the helmets we use".

  PoisonToadGamakichi said " Yes , the pods can also help you play Omega for much longer , it is said that with the nutritional bottles filled to the brim , it can give you one week of full dive without the need to logout , unfortunately it got sold out the minute it was launched , and no news have been released about new stock ".

  Murmurs began to spread in the room , most had heard about the miraculous full dive pods , however sadly they had been sold out.

  Rudra said " Well , ofcourse they would be sould out , out of the 10,000 units , I bought 9999 of them sooo yeah ".

  Silence …… Utter silence held the room , followed by a deafening cheer!

  Rudra laughed , he said " Yes my gift to you all is the VR pods , every single Elite gets one ! ".

  The cheering went on and on

  Things like

  ' You are the best guild leader ever !!! '

  ' Thankyou guild master ! '.

  ' We love you guild master ! '

  ' Joining the Elites was the best decision of my life '

  ' I will follow him to death ! '.

  Could be heard spoken from the crowd.

  Karna raised an eyebrow …… This was indeed good news perhaps his intuition was wrong , maybe Rudra did only have joy to share today. He was very pumped about the VR pods , he knew he would improve a lot with it.

  SMG was over the moon , the 5% extra sync rate would change heaven and earth for the guy in the Dodgeball event , the dodging was already soo close , if his reflexes improved even a little more it would be a huge help.

  Fatty Kalash however remained unconvinced , he knew Rudra for the longest time , and till he knew his friend , this was his typical honey trap . He remained skeptical of Rudra's true intentions.

  And his intuition was indeed correct , as Rudra was a devil waiting to bare his fangs .
