Очень просто устроена!
The lowest rank is Frame: Youngest Child (末子, Masshi?). For a magus to be considered qualified to obtain even this rank, they must be recognized by the Clock Tower as a "legitimate magus." They do not consider self-taught magi or unassociated with the Clock Tower to be magi, so they are considered outsiders.
The Count: Eldest Child (長子, Chōshi?) rank stands between Cause and Frame.
The rank of Cause: Open (開位, Kaii?) is most often the limit for magi whose lineage reaches five hundred years, even with hard work. They also must have "created some sort of Magecraft and stabilized it" for the Clock Tower to recognize them as sufficiently talented.
The Fes: Festival (祭位, Saii?) rank differs from the normal rankings in that it is granted as an honorary title for skills and achievements, such as awe inspiring unusual abilities outside of the purview of ordinary magi, separate from the normal assessment of their rank as a magus. The abilities of those of the Fes rank vary across the spectrum of magi, Lord El-Melloi II only possessing the ability of a Cause or Count, some even having abilities exceeding those of the Brand rank. Accomplishments like being a God's Holder, mastery of Magic Crest restoration, the high assessment of a large number of students, and being the child of a Lord are some examples of those who hold the rank of Fes.
