Honor of the Cygnus Knights

Greetings, [ชื่อ]. I have heard rumors of great concerns to the Cygnus Knights. It appears that Battle Mode has opened in Maple World.

Battle Mode is where the greatest warriors of Maple World come together to test their strength. If the Cygnus Knights do not make a show of strength, the Empress will become the laughing stock of all the lands.

Hence, I'm asking all of our knights to represent Cygnus in Battle Mode. I expect great things from you in particular, and would like you to reach Rank 9. I am confident you will bring even greater renown to our beloved Empress.

They say that you can participate in Battle Mode by talking to Maximus in any town. Remember, your goal is Rank 9.

Hmm... Perhaps my faith was misplaced. I see now how weak and feeble you are.

You've reached Rank 9. Well done. The Empress is pleased with you.

Continue to fight, and win, in the name of Cygnus. As your rank increases, so does the Empress's renown.

It appears you haven't reached Rank 9 in Battle Mode yet... Is this your best? Are you sure? Please go see Maximus in any town.
