Chapter 965 Chapter 965: Promotion

All the participants had finished the task they were assigned, no matter how hard it was. Fortunately, throughout all this, Lucifer had managed to save the people he really wanted to save.

In this way, he also got some good servants from the World of Summons, along with the last piece of stone that he needed. Now he had all the pieces of the puzzle.

The only thing that was left now was that promotion that could give him the freedom that he needed to handle his matters himself, without much interference from the Star Alliance.

Even though he was confident that his score was better than others, he couldn't be a hundred percent sure of it. He still wanted to hear the final results from the old man.

The Ship was on the way back to the Star Alliance headquarters. Usually, they needed to go back to the world of Trials and wait to have themselves be picked up by their respective sides, but the old man had a different idea.

He knew that if he went with the usual method, Mander's family was definitely going to create some trouble for Lucifer. That's why he decided to take a different path and take Lucifer back to the Star Alliance Headquarters instead.

That was the world where all the Higher Ups lived, including the Queen herself. If there was one place where even a General wasn't going to be so brazen, it was the Star Alliance headquarters, as there was a power balance there.

"Finally, all the trials come to an end, and we finally have the end results before us. I'll be announcing them now!" The old man said, taking a seat.

"I won't tell you your individual scores in this last trial. I'll only be telling you your final ranking, which is created taking your initially assigned points and your performance in the trials."

"Rank 51: Oli."

"Rank 50..."

"Rank 13, Malin."

The old man went through the ranking from the lowest to the highest.

Seeing Malin's rank, quite a few were surprised. Most of them were jealous of her luck.

"That girl was lucky. She just got assigned to Lucifer's team!"

"Thanks to him, she could reach so far and even got such a good rank despite being ranked fiftieth. I am so jealous of her!"

Most of the jealousy came from the ones who were ranked lower than her in final results, despite being near the top at the start.

"Rank 10: Riya."

The tenth ranker surprised Lucifer the most. That girl was also his teammate and was more into tech enhancement. Seeing her get such a good result, he was quite impressed, especially since she had an even better ranking than Malin.

"Fifth is Mander!" The old man declared.

"How could it be? Isn't he dead? How did he get fifth rank?" One of the youngsters asked.

"Being dead doesn't erase one's scores. Mander was near the top before this final round. Even though he didn't get any score in the final round, his points that he gathered before were enough to have him ranked fifth," the old man explained.

...

The old man continued with the ranking.

Finally, it was the turn of the top three, and that's what most were waiting for, especially since they wanted to know how the three seeds performed and which of them got the top rank.

"Rank third is Raayi," the old man stated, shocking almost everyone in the hall.

"What? Nonsense!" Even Raayi couldn't believe it. She was ranked first in overall score before this final round. How could she be third now??Did Lucifer and Ron score above her in the final round? Even then, this was too much!

"I killed so many people! There is no way that these two killed more than me!" She exclaimed.

Even the others found it hard to believe. Even though Lucifer and Ron were strong, that was the case in one-on-one battles. This last trial was about large-scale destruction, which was the expertise of Raayi!

The old man didn't like being questioned, but he couldn't stay silent either, especially since there was nothing wrong with the numbers.

"Even though I said I won't be telling anyone's scores in the final round, I'll make an exception and tell yours. Raayi, you killed four million people. The second ranker killed five million, and the first ranker killed twelve million."

"Is that enough?" The old man asked after telling the shocking score.

"Five million and twelve million? How is that possible? No, it can't be! How can they kill that many!" Raayi still found it hard to believe.

This was just too much.

Even Ron was quite surprised. This much information was enough to make him understand everything. He was sure he killed somewhere around five million people. That meant the twelve million...

He couldn't help but glance at Lucifer. Just what kind of person was he? Even if they combined his and Raayi's score, they still killed less people than Lucifer. This was quite surprising for him.

"You can believe it or not. That doesn't change the outcome. Just don't disturb us anymore," the old man lazily stated.

"Second rank goes to..."

"Me." Before the old man could even take a name, Ron stepped forward. After realizing Lucifer's score in the final round, he was sure that he was ranked second in the final rankings.

"Correct. I suppose you guessed that much from the score revelation?" The old man asked, amused at how perceptive Ron was. Ron just looked and acted like a brute warrior, but in reality, he was quite clever as well.

"And the first rank belongs to Lucifer. He is the winner of this Year's Captainship Trial," the old man declared.

Finally, after hearing that from the old man himself, Lucifer could sigh in relief. He finally did it! He had received that rank upgrade that he was after.

He wasn't sure if he could get to the rank of General or not, but for now, the Captain Rank was enough.

"Lucifer, you stay behind. The others can leave." The old man sent everyone else back.

Even as the youngsters left, there were some jealous gazes with which they looked at Lucifer. This kid was just promoted.

More than the jealous gazes, there were some worshiping gazes. A lot of the youngsters here were impressed by Lucifer's strength. They believed that it was a well-deserved victory and that Lucifer could achieve great heights in the future.

After everyone else left, only Lucifer was left behind with the old man and the staff of the ship.

"Once we land in the headquarters, I'll personally take you to Her Majesty and tell her these results. Our people will take care of all the documentation for the promotion.?Within one day of all the process being finished, you'll be shown the Ship that you'll be taking the command of," the old man explained the basics about what was going to happen next.

"What about the crew? Will I be provided that, or do I have to select them myself?" Lucifer asked.

If possible, he wanted to be the one to select his crew himself. That way, he could get a few people from the earth that had been with him for a long time, like Salazar and Kellian.

He also didn't want to rely too much on the people of Star Alliance since their loyalty was more to the Star Alliance and less to him.

If the Star Alliance selected them, they could easily send some spies on his ship to keep an eye on him.

"As for your crew, you will have to select them on your own. The Alliance will give you a list of new recruits and suitable candidates. You can select from them. If you don't like them, you can select them on your own. As a captain, you will have the authority."

"The only thing is that whoever you select, they'll have to go through a one month mandatory training about how to handle the ship. That is if they weren't Star Alliance Members."

"Any other doubts?"

The answers made Lucifer quite happy. This meant that he didn't have to worry about spies. Since he controlled everything, he could definitely select his friends who were loyal to him. And the one month technical training, that much was nothing.

"Not for now," he told the old man. "No question."

"Good. You can go and rest as well. You've worked hard. I'll send someone to inform you when we reach near the base." The old man stood up and turned his attention back to the screen.

Lucifer turned and left. So far, everything had gone according to the plan. He had managed to protect people, send Gabriel away, and now he was promoted.

So far, things were moving smoothly.

He went back to his room and dropped to his bed. His score was the highest, but that was also because he hadn't rested even a little. Throughout the days, he hadn't slept and kept on using his lightning nonstop.

So much use of his abilities did make this stronger though.
