The Magician of Sound

Chapter 512 - New Ranking System

"To the next topic, I'm going to present you with Former Prime Minister Oliver's fate." He then pointed at the screen next to him, showing Oliver's picture getting arrested by Rena. "After the incident last night, we have arrested him. He will be judged with Martial Court Law in the Union Headquarters. Everything will be broadcasted, so we will make sure this court session will be fair and square.

"That's why I hope that every single one of you can refrain yourself from doing some demonstration and let the judges do their job. Our only promise is that the entire process will take less than two weeks. He is pressed for War Crimes and Inhumane Research. As a result, he should have a death penalty. However, the final decision will be made by the judges. I will allow three questions again."

After listening to his explanation, all of them raised their hands again. He simply chose three different people that hadn't been chosen.

"The citizens will surely feel uneasy if the judges give—"

Before she finished, he waved his hand with a serious expression. "That's not going to happen. With the number of crimes he has committed, his best scenario will be a lifelong jail time without any pardon and visit from other people."

"May we know what you think about the entire situation from Former Prime Minister Oliver's involvement to last night's battle?"

"After last night's incident, we have discussed with the US Base's president. All I can tell you is that we have agreed to join hands to fight them, focusing our military on suppressing this imminent threat. We also plan to work together with United Asia. In other words, we would like to unite together to eliminate this threat.

"I am sure that all of you have seen the scale of last night's battle. Even right now, that place has turned into a crater. Even with Kai Carter and the others joining hands, it was still not enough. So, only if we unite can we bring peace for humanity."

"What will happen to the research subjects? I'm sure they don't have any more place to live with their current appearances. What will the government do about this?"

He took a deep breath first and continued, "In the previous discussion, we have worked together with the US Base to make the cure for them. According to the US Base, Ria Ross has been experiencing some sort of success, so we are happy to know that there is a chance for them to recover.

"We will update their progress once in a while because we take our credibility seriously. We should be able to see the effect within three months. That's our only assurance we can give to you."

After that, the butler continued with a more interesting topic. "In any case, I'm going to go back to the second question. Because of the threat of our enemy that has surpassed our imagination, we are going to add some more classification to our classification system.

"President Brent has also approved of this classification system. Hence, I declare that above S Rank will have SS Rank and SSS Rank. S Rank Magical Beast has enough intelligence and power to turn the entire wasteland into a wasteland while bringing many monsters. The mole that has appeared in the US Base recently is an example.

"As for SS Rank Magical Beast, they have enough strength to destroy a single city in one single attack. Back then, the S Rank Spider that the US Base took down could actually cover the city with white thread in one single attack. Hence, this monster shall be classified as SS Rank Magical Beast.

"Last but not least, SSS Rank Magical Beast. They are the Magical Beast that has enough strength to turn the entire base into a wasteland. As much as I hate to say it, the monster we encountered last night was such a beast. If Kai Carter is not a part of the exchange student, there is no telling what will happen to the EU Base. That's why we classify them as SSS Rank Magical Beast.

"If we encounter any stronger monster than this one, we will classify them as one step higher, the Supreme Rank Magical Beast. This one can bring chaos to the entire world and we hope we don't encounter such a beast.

"To further implement this system, the Union and President Brent have come to an agreement to elevate a few people's ranks. For her achievement on the battlefield, reputation, and strength, we proudly announce that Ria Ross will become an SS Rank Magician.

"The same applies to our newly appointed S Rank Magicians, Roselyn and Sofia. Although they are still young, from our records, they are stronger than S Rank Magician Jules Campbell, Arnaud Tron, and Rena Alberona. Hence, Roselyn and Sofia Campbell are to become SS Rank Magicians as of today. We are hoping to see their future achievements.

"Last but not least, with his Martial Prowess, Warfare Achievement, and the fact that he has killed multiple invaders and led the entire team to kill last night's enemy. We proudly announce to every person in this world that Kai Carter is the one and only SSS Rank Magician.

"All the necessities will be processed on their own bases. That's all." The butler announced the biggest news of the day. This was also Kai's plan to further accurately measure one's strength to ensure the chain of command.

The news spread to all bases in an instant.

The people from the EU Base were taken aback by this announcement. They felt a bit dissatisfied with Oliver's fate, but since the government wanted to fight for the hardest punishment and eliminate any potential threat, they needed to settle down for the time being. They would move the citizens if the judgment were not to their liking.

Little did they know, this kind of movement came from Marsha. She simply wanted to see if there were any more traitors involved with Oliver. She planned to eliminate him and his influence thoroughly after all.

They also felt relieved that those who had turned into a monster would have the chance to return to their former selves and start anew.

However, the one that shocked them the most was the new ranking system. They never expected to see someone break the norm to the point the government needed to issue a new ranking system just to accommodate him.

Kai Carter would indeed go down in history. The EU Base knew about his relationship with Sofia, so they felt happy to know that they had some connection with Kai Carter. Those in United Asia felt regretful and demanded their government to take action against their idiotic decision to abandon Kai Carter.

After all, the man they abandoned had now turned into the strongest magician in human history.

As for the US citizens, they were throwing a celebration. After all, Kai Carter was a kind of celebrity himself. Adored by many, the name of Kai Carter kept echoing among the people's mouths.

They were simply proud that Kai Carter was their fellow citizen. At the same time, Ria Ross was also crowned as a solid SS Rank Magician, unlike Sofia and Roselyn, whose achievement was still too shallow.

Even President Brent gave his opinion and told everyone about their decision while clarifying the news.
