Chapter 117
Once the matches were decided, Fernan headed to the Golden Turtle Guild.
“Why do you say that?”
The one who followed him was Luina, who asked him directly.
“Are you planning to surrender?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“So you’ll fight?”
“Because of your expression.”
“It’s true that I don’t enjoy wasting energy on something with an obvious result, but I never said I would surrender.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Fernan shrugged.
“I didn’t say that either.”
In truth, he had already decided to lean toward surrender. arrow It was better to focus on the repechage than to face Luina unnecessarily.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“I want to fight you seriously.”
‘After all, the ranking is secured through the losers’ matches.’
At the very least, he needed to stay within the top 10 to avoid being expelled from the Rabidus Hall.
“Me? riddle Why?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“A mere merchant doesn’t kill a demon’s summon in a single strike.”
“There’s no opponent who compares to you.”
“I’m just a merchant.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
— Kyu!
Wooden, hanging from his neck, raised his radiant hand.
“That wasn’t me…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Wooden is your golem. wizard So you did it. acoustic You can fight with him if you want.”
“He did it.”
“Artifacts are forbidden in this exam.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
That was true. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com ability But Fernan had no intention of revealing Wooden in public just to win an exam.
“Golems are considered magic, not artifacts.”
“Impossible.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Why do you insist so much on fighting?”
“Do you think I’m crazy about fighting?”
Wooden was his last resort, his final shield and sword.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“No, it’s not that…”
With what rotten eyes could anyone call a future Royal Knight a “burden”?
“Burden? atomic You, a burden?”
“I just don’t want to be a burden.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“But I couldn’t fight properly against Andromalius.”
“Why? adapt You’re the champion of the jousting tournament.”
“I didn’t hear it from anyone, it’s my own thought.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“If it weren’t for Aint’s light, his power wouldn’t have weakened. sphere If it weren’t for the traps you set, he never would’ve shown an opening. ability If it weren’t for Wooden, we never would’ve finished off that serpent. atlas And if it weren’t for Verian and Aria, I would’ve died more than once.”
Luina clenched her teeth, her voice hardened, and her fingers trembled as she recalled those moments.
“Yet you defeated him.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Fernan fell silent.
“It was legend, but now it’s reality. apple Fernan, you know better than anyone. abstract That was just the beginning. silence Do you think you’ll always be able to rely on Aint’s help?”
“That was a demon from legends. matrix Aren’t you setting the bar too high?”
“If it weren’t for the cooperation with Aint, I wouldn’t have been able to defeat Andromalius.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Luina’s words hit the mark.
“Also, to the north of Bercheff, monsters are hiding. atomic Are you sure none of them are demons?”
Countless demons would be summoned, and armies of monsters would ravage the continent.
She was right. arcade The future would bring even greater chaos.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“My duty is to eradicate them and protect Bercheff.”
Could she guarantee she’d never have to face a demon alone?
Aint wouldn’t always be there.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
‘…She’s better than me.’
He believed that since the book said demons would appear one by one, it would always be like that. action But what if not?
Fernan admitted he had relied too much on the book of prophecies.

“…I understand, Luina. accent I’ll do my best too.”
The fact that she, without the book of prophecies, understood this better than he did made him feel pathetic.
She had to be stronger. voyage Surviving meant becoming strong.
The future was already altered. orbit Nothing prevented dozens of demons from appearing at once.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
She didn’t even touch the chocolate before leaving.
***
She bowed her head in gratitude.
“Thank you.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“……”
“Begin the match!”
The next day
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“With the intent, not the desire?”
“Luina, I’ll fight with the intent to beat you.”
The referee announced the start, but neither Fernan nor Luina moved. voyage They simply stared at each other with determination.
“……”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
If Luina sought strength by thinking of demons and the future, Fernan had decided to focus on raising and sharpening talents like her.
“Your words yesterday made me think, but my essence is still that of a merchant.”
He was a merchant, a support for warriors.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
He had no intention of defeating her, but he would pressure her as much as possible to give her experience.
Whoosh.
Tap.
With a light tap of his staff against the ground, he began casting.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
In an instant, she covered twenty meters.
But she escaped easily, her feet glowing with a blue light.
The ground beneath Luina’s feet turned into quicksand, pulling her down.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
A raging blue aura slashed Fernan’s neck. afford His head rolled—but it was only a mirage.
Suddenly, the shadows of enormous rocks covered the field.
A rock fist rose in her path, but it only delayed her half a second before crumbling.
Crack!
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Evade? portal Impossible.
It wasn’t just one—there were many, covering the entire arena.
“And you said you were weak…?”

Luina hardened her aura and concentrated it into her sword.
Her sword split the largest rock, but it wasn’t ordinary stone—it was a magically reinforced projectile, as hard as steel.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Fernan’s voice rang out as the split rock rejoined, as if it had a will of its own.
The roar was enough to crush an ordinary human, but Luina endured.
Boooom!
“You shouldn’t let your guard down.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
But it wasn’t unbearable.
It burned. amber Fernan could manipulate fire at this level?
She broke through the rock and charged directly into the center of a wall of flames.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Boom!
Now the path was clear.
With force, she parted the fire in two.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
The distance shrank violently. anchor But once again, Fernan’s body dissolved like a mirage.
The price came immediately.

Earthquake.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
From below, flames glowed, and from above, piles of sand blocked any exit.
“Are you really trying to kill me?”
“Then will you surrender?”
The ground opened beneath her, swallowing her into an abyss.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
The aura devoured the flames, carved a tunnel, and with a leap, she emerged upward.
Her sword glowed blue and unleashed slashes downward.
The voice echoed from some unseen place.
“Surrender? abstract On the contrary, this is exactly what I wanted.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“…A golem?!”
But suddenly, a giant blocked her ascent.
A roaring lioness soared into the sky.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Booom!
“You said you wouldn’t use golems…”
The golem’s fist crushed the lioness of aura, and Luina crashed violently to the ground.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Did I promise that?”
‘To defeat a golem, the best strategy is to attack its summoner…!’
Boom!
The golem landed, imposing. armor It wasn’t Wooden, but its size and toughness made it a formidable weapon.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“…Two at once?”
But she had no time. athlete Another golem landed behind her.
Few had ever heard of a summoner capable of controlling two golems simultaneously.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Luina’s shout echoed as two golems charged at her.
“Since I’ve been connected to Wooden, I see the world through a golem’s eyes. portal Controlling them became easier.”
“…And yet you still say you’re weak!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Haa, haa…!”
“…I lost.”
Luina’s sword pointed at Fernan’s neck.
***
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Fernan offered no resistance and immediately acknowledged his defeat, while Luina, nervous, collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
“Couldn’t you at least let me land one hit before surrendering?”
“I don’t enjoy that kind of thing. abandon I surrender. acid I surrender unconditionally.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
He thought two wouldn’t be enough and summoned another, but instead, the control destabilized and was less efficient than handling just two.
To any onlooker, it might have seemed that the roles of victor and defeated had been reversed, but it was inevitable.
“The moment you brought out a third, every movement started feeling unnatural.”
“Using three golems was a mistake. abstract It was overkill.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Was Fernan really that strong? Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com. afford This isn’t just about having more mana from drinking a bunch of elixirs.”
“Crazy, he controlled three golems at once?”
Anyway, that wasn’t the important part.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“And those are some of the top-tier golemsmiths!”
“Wow, three golems at the same time? acid No wonder he’s first in his class.”
“This goes beyond the level of an outstanding student. beacon Don’t they say even professors who use golems are limited to two?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“She’s insane. matrix Did you see how the golems ended up? matrix Shattered to pieces.”
“And Luina, who managed to break through and climb out in the end?”
“Her aura was at an insane level. atlas When did she get so strong?”
The fact that he controlled three golems at once—and cornered Luina with them—left everyone speechless.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
The students couldn’t stop expressing admiration at the battle between Fernan and Luina.
“If someone thinks that was luck, their eyes are just for decoration.”
“So her defeating senior Rob Kaelin wasn’t a fluke.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Fernan extended his hand. palette Luina didn’t refuse it and stood up by taking it.
“Well fought.”
It had been a flawless fight from beginning to end.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“I told you, I’d fight with the intent to win.”
“I almost lost.”

“I never thought you’d destroy all three completely. august It’ll be cheaper to make new ones than repair them.”
“Huh?”
“Still, I never imagined you’d use three golems…”
“I regret it.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“In that situation I had no choice—they were way tougher than I thought.”
“I had specially modified them. august Anyway, I’ll charge you for the golems.”
He hadn’t expected her to completely break them to the point of being irreparable.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Luina averted her gaze uncomfortably. armor Just then, the professor raised her arm.
“The winner, Luina Bercheff!”
“…You’re the one who summoned them.”
The winner was decided.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
But not everyone was.
The whole Academy was buzzing over the integrated exams.

Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Times like these make being on the fringe the best.”
But as the professor of 『Golem Magic Engineering』, Harcon Pallas had no such obligation.
One of the professors whose classes weren’t directly related to battle, Harcon Pallas, was among them.
If he’d been involved in combat, he would’ve had to monitor and manage the crowds of students during the exams.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
To control a golem, the mage had to focus entirely on it, leaving themselves completely vulnerable in the process.
Although golemancy had long been recognized as official magic, it had long been considered secondary due to its limited usefulness.
That’s why it wasn’t very suitable for combat.
It was inevitable.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Its primary use was as heavy machinery in mines or construction sites, but no one studied magic for that.
Harcon pushed up the monocle he wore low on his face. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
“Idiots who don’t understand the beauty of golems.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
They were grand, beautiful, powerful. accent How could anyone think of them as mere tools?
Harcon dreamed of crushing everyone’s pride someday.
They didn’t get it. ability The true value of a golem was nothing so trivial.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
By creating the ideal of all golemsmiths—the Auto Golem.
He had only just found a thread of possibility, and it would still take years of research and refinement before bearing fruit—but that didn’t matter.
‘If I create an Auto Golem, I’ll change the course of magic.’
A golem that didn’t need to be linked to a mage, but could obey simple commands inscribed into its core.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
As long as there was even a small chance, that was enough.
Golemancy was one of the most resource-intensive branches of magic.
The Academy’s subsidy wasn’t enough, so he had planned to make a splash there—but everything had been ruined by the chaos of the corrupt.
‘I was going to present this at the Continental Conference to secure funding…’
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
‘First I’ll finish the blueprints, then find sponsors…’
Out of frustration, he crumpled the paper and threw it into the bin.
But that day, he couldn’t concentrate. ability He kept getting stuck on the designs.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Ah, Professor Nania.”
At that moment, someone visited his lab.
“Professor Harcon, are you there?”
It was Nania Beris, who had recently joined from Fridian as the professor of 『Introduction to Spirit Summoning』.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Aren’t you going to watch the integrated exams?”
Both “non-mainstream” professors had gotten along well.
“What’s the matter?”
Since spirit sensitives were rare, her subject was also marginal.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“I don’t know… I think there was something yesterday you might find interesting.”

After all, no one was using golems.
“I’m not interested. anxiety What’s there to see?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
【Academy Daily】
“Something that would interest me?”
【The long-awaited duel finally happened! anchor The top second-year Knight and jousting tournament champion, Luina Bercheff VS top second-year Mage, Fernan Pellenberg. silence A clash of the best two!】
Nania handed him a newspaper.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
【Three golems in the integrated exams! advance He cornered Luina Bercheff. antenna Can golems be viable in real combat?】
【Fernan Pellenberg controlled three golems simultaneously. accent A hidden genius in golemancy?】
【Everyone expected a one-sided win for Luina, but the unexpected occurred.】
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Nothing strange—battles between the best were always hot topics.
The newspaper highlighted the match between Luina and Fernan, the top students in their year.
But what caught Harcon Pallas’s attention was something else.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
His jaw dropped. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
Not one, not two, but three? airport Was that even possible?
“…He controlled three golems at once?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“Good heavens…”
“Of course. alpha I saw it myself.”
“…Is… is that true?”
“Yes. admire He controlled three golems at once and cornered Luina.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Harcon Pallas was an authority in golemancy. athlete Not just any authority—one of the top.
“It’s not just amazing, it’s monumental!”
“Is it really that amazing? absorb I don’t know anything about golems…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
There was no one in the Empire who surpassed him, and probably not even across the two continents.
Controlling two at once was like managing two different bodies with one mind.
“Even I have a limit of two!”
Modern golems had to be directly controlled by a mage, linked to their mana like their own body.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Not only that—controlling a golem required a high level of understanding and knowledge of its structure.
Being able to handle three meant immeasurable mastery.
“…If this is true, that Fernan is a genius. legend A genius in golemancy!”
And three?
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
A talent.
“I see.”
Harcon’s face turned red with excitement.
“It’s not just ‘I see’! audit This boy must dedicate himself entirely to golemancy. shadow He has to give his life to this art!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“This kid must become a golemsmith! meadow Why the hell is he wasting time with earth magic?”
In decades, no such prodigy had emerged in golemancy. agent A student who had to be secured at all costs.
“Fernan! acoustic Where are you?”
With a leap, Harcon bolted out of the lab, scattering all his research papers to the floor.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
Of course, if someone told her a student could summon dozens of spirits at once, she’d be stunned too.
“That much, huh?”
Nania, now alone, let out an incredulous laugh.
“Ah…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
“So that’s why Aria was so insistent on keeping a close watch on Fernan Pellenberg…”
“I just wanted to bring up something interesting, and look how it turned out.”
It must’ve been a shock of that magnitude.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
That’s why she had approached Harcon first, who didn’t have strong ties with the others.
And since several professors were under their influence, they didn’t easily accept Nania either, who had come backed by Fridian.
“It’ll be hard to increase Fridian’s influence in the Academy… what a pain.”
The prince-electors didn’t welcome Fridian.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 117 by Indra Translations.
With a sigh, she left the empty lab.
