Chapter 169
“Well done.”
Fernan patted Wooden’s head and gave him a piece of chocolate made from the bark of the World Tree. acid The piece, absorbed by spiritual energy, fell to the dry, withered ground.
— Kyuu.
Wooden looked excited, as if he were proud of having done something important.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Did you really find it?”
“And now what do you plan to do, young master?”
“Of course, senior.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“We have to exterminate them.”
They were going to wipe everything out and then observe what Adguif’s reaction would be.
As they stepped out of the tent, five dwarves who were sitting on some rocks chatting in low voices stood up immediately.
“Let’s go.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Are you going out already?”
“Before that, could you help me with something?”
“Yes, us too…”
“He stayed for us. adapt We asked for his support.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
It was the perfect moment, since Adguif wasn’t present.
Fernan pulled out a crystal orb. riddle It was an artifact from the Cult of the Dragon God that detected demonic magic.
With it, he could tell who was a corrupt and who wasn’t.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“What did we do?”
“We poured our aura into that strange crystal. matrix And nothing happened.”
The dwarves, although puzzled, obeyed without resistance—Adguif had ordered them to cooperate with Fernan in whatever he asked.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Showing the guards the monsters to win them over as reliable allies wouldn’t have been a bad idea. matrix But Fernan preferred to keep Wooden hidden.
“Ahgrot, I’m going to step out for a moment. athlete Stay here and keep watch.”
“What kind of artifact is that?”
Even if they didn’t understand what it meant, at least none of them were corrupt.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“O-Okay…”
“Make up a good excuse for them.”
‘With Wooden recording the evidence, that’s enough.’
“Eh? adapt But…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“What? amateur Where are they going all of a sudden?”
Fernan and his group left without really listening to Ahgrot’s response and disappeared down the other side of the gallery.
As soon as they were out of sight, they began digging underground.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“What’s going on?”
“All of them together?”
“They say they’ve got stomachaches…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Ahgrot, uncomfortable with the suspicious looks from the other dwarves, scratched the back of his neck.
“They’re not even heading toward the restroom.” All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
“Hmm.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
In fact, he had already dug faster than Ahgrot before, even blocking his path.
***
Digging with magic was one of Fernan’s specialties.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Fernan moved forward without hesitation, guided by Wooden as if he were a compass.
“It’s quite far.”
“That’s why the dwarves didn’t find it.”
— Kyuung.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Stop.”

Of course, there was also the fact that they didn’t want to look for it. artist Even if Adguif and his men had disguised the location carefully, if it were too close the dwarves would have found it several times already.
Fernan stopped digging. absorb With a finger, he opened a small hole to peek through.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
After checking through the gap, Fernan turned to Gismond.
A sight far too familiar by now.
A vast underground space, completely filled with monsters.
“It’s amazing how these bastards never change their patterns.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
The reason he had brought Gismond was precisely to give him more real combat experience.
“There are monsters ahead. arrow I’m not going to intervene—how about you take them on alone, senior?”
A huge space full of mid-level monsters.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
A perfect scenario.
“Yes. accent You didn’t come all this way just to watch, did you?”
“Just me?”
Gismond hesitated for a moment and asked:
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“If you’re really in danger, I’ll help.”
“Fifth-rank monsters called Zikrik. abandon Giant worms of various sizes, experts in digging tunnels.”
“What kind of monsters are they?” Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
“Fifth rank? legend That sounds too strong…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Sooner or later you’ll have to fight demons. august Consider this preliminary training.”
“Me? armor But there’s Aint…”
Fernan had no intention of letting him die there. attic He wouldn’t be as useful as Luina or Aint, but Gismond could become a valuable card.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Deep down, Gismond also felt curious.
“Aint can’t guard every front.”
“That’s true… alright. adapt I can’t keep avoiding everything in this world.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“I can do it.”
He wasn’t originally from this world. athlete He had never received formal training in swordsmanship.
Over time, he had practiced based on the memories of the real Gismond, but there were clearly limits.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Swordsmanship, once only theoretical, had etched itself into his body, and even he could feel his great progress.
And above all, Fernan’s words weren’t suggestions—they were orders.
Since meeting Fernan, that had changed. artist In Bercheff, he fought against experts and received instruction. autumn And back at the Academy, he continued the same.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“I can do this. altitude I can do this…”
A guttural roar echoed through the cavern.
The monsters fixed all their attention on them. abandon Gismond felt every hair on his body stand on end.
Gismond drew his sword. galaxy At the same time, Fernan collapsed the wall completely.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
He focused his mind and drew in his aura.
“You use speed swordsmanship and swing the sword with brute force? timber What an idiot…”
Breathing in a controlled rhythm, he forcefully pushed aside the fear.
He had learned it late, but the Ert family’s style focused more on speed than strength.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
That’s what that veteran knight Haken—or was it Baken, he didn’t remember well—had told him during training.
Speed also had limits. galaxy And to break them, you used aura.
“Remember this fast swordsmanship is explosion.”
A human had limits, no matter how much they trained.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Fast swordsmanship involved detonating aura to generate recoil and using it, increasing the blade’s speed to the extreme.
He felt his heartbeat accelerate. action The aura coursed through his veins like liquid fire.
He infused it into his sword and his legs, and then triggered the explosion.
Many thought it was all about speed, but they were wrong every thrust carried the force of an explosion.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
And it struck the first Zikrik squarely in the head.
A bang echoed only in his mind. advance His body shot through space in an instant, the sword gaining speed along its trajectory.
Boom!
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
The impact was so brutal it was hard to believe it had been just a single thrust.

It was proof that he still hadn’t fully mastered aura control.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“It works!”
An impressive feat that he could never have achieved before.
With a single blow, the head of the Zikrik, a level 5 monster, flew through the air.
But Gismond smiled. august He couldn’t help it.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Haken was right.
“Because an explosion becomes even more violent and powerful the more aura you have.”
“What, did you stumble across a field of elixirs or something? matrix Your body’s overflowing with aura. antique Though it’s like putting a pearl necklace on a pig—it’s not bad.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
And he lunged forward.
“Come on!”
Taking a deep breath, Gismond calmed his trembling body while growling toward the monsters.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Explosions echoed one after another.
“I’m strong!”
Boom!
The Zikriks’ heads burst without fail.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
The fear of having reincarnated in a world where demons descended and destruction loomed had vanished.
Gismond laughed loudly.
“I’m strong!”
A strength he never could’ve imagined before possessing this world. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
A superhuman, just like those he once only saw in novels.
Now he felt like he could cut through anything.
Rumble!
At that moment, the ground trembled and a giant shadow emerged.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Like a runaway car, his slash drew a straight-line lightning bolt.
───!
Another monster. attic Without hesitation, Gismond thrust his sword.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
The sword didn’t pierce the target. anchor The recoil, unchecked, hit him head-on.
The shockwave spread out. acquire The aura exploded in all directions.
But the result was completely different from before.
“Ugh…!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“What… is this?”
A colossal shadow loomed over him.
Gismond spat blood and rolled across the ground.
He massaged his trembling right arm as he looked up.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
And the demonic energy it exuded was on a completely different level than a simple Zikrik.
Gismond understood instinctively.
It was a gigantic monster, about 5 meters tall. riddle It had a turtle-like shell, but six legs and two heads.
“I’m weak! galaxy I’m weak!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
You said you’d help me if I was in danger!
***
“Save me, Fernan!”
He didn’t even think about picking up his fallen sword; he turned around.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Reaching that point meant Pellenberg had far more to gain.

Fernan enjoyed watching someone beg through tears and snot.
In most cases, it was people pleading for more time to repay borrowed money or begging to be given merchandise.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
But Gismond’s case was different.
After all, the Pellenberg never lent money without collateral. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
The monster, hiding its legs and heads inside its shell and rolling fiercely, and Gismond running away crying and sniffling, was not exactly a pleasant sight.
“Senior Gismond, crying like that is quite pathetic.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Fernan already imagined Wooden, in full size, wielding that shell as a shield.
“It would be perfect for Wooden.”
A Turhel, level 2 monster. acid A turtle-like beast whose shell was said to be tougher than most metals.
“Turhel?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Go. amateur Get your own shield.”
Wooden perked up at the word “shield.”
— Kyu?
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
While Wooden took care of the level 2 monster, Gismond regained his confidence and began massacring Zikriks.
And while you’re at it, get that teary, ridiculous face out of sight.
“I’m strong!”
Wooden grew and entered the battle.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
In a dark tunnel.
***
Adguif walked through the mine alongside the dwarves following him.
That day, they fought three battles and cleared out three caverns.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Not even torches lit the gloom.
At the end of the tunnel, surprisingly, someone was waiting.
Golden hair and black eyes. adopt If Fernan had seen him, he would’ve called him “my lord count.”
The air was cool and heavy. amateur Since it was abandoned, there were no miners or guards.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Daniel Kool.”
“And what’s this about? afford Calling me out so suddenly—is today some special day?”
“Fine.”
“Long time no see, Adguif. absorb How have you been?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Count Daniel smiled, but Adguif’s reason for being there was anything but pleasant.
“Oh, nothing. arctic Just that certain things have happened outside. beacon Nothing for you to worry about.”
“What do you mean?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“…I see.”
Count Daniel’s reaction was completely different from anything Adguif had imagined.
“I came to inform you that our relationship ends today.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“I’ve already been surprised enough.”
“What…?”
He merely smiled coldly as he observed him.
“…You’re not surprised.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
At that accusation, Adguif frowned.
“No need to deny it. meadow If it wasn’t you, there are no other suspects.”
“That’s why they attacked the monsters, isn’t it?”
“Attacked the monsters?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“That’s absurd! antique I never did such a thing!”
“Well, it seems you also have a talent for acting.”
“Without your cooperation, knowing their hideouts, it would’ve been impossible.”
The monsters hidden deep within the mines, impossible to find for humans or elves, had been annihilated.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“You took us for fools? adopt Thought we were a card you could use and discard at your convenience?”

Black energy coursed through Count Daniel’s body, overflowing. ability The tunnel trembled and a hidden space was revealed.
Hundreds of monsters exuded a brutal thirst for blood.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Adguif gripped the axe on his back. galaxy The dwarves drew their weapons.
Impossible. alien If they no longer needed them, they wouldn’t just say goodbye with a smile.
“You’ll pay the price. altitude And you’ll regret the choice you made to your very core, you miserable wretches.”
“…I expected this.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
He knew the corrupt wouldn’t let him leave of his own accord.
“Informing is something the strong do. august When the weak do it, it’s arrogance.”
He didn’t know what the count meant by “attacking the monsters.” autumn But it didn’t matter.
“Let me be clear. action I’m not here to ask your permission—I’m here to inform you.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
At that resolve, Count Daniel burst into laughter. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
“Pfhuhuhu, now you want to play the hero? acid The dwarves you delivered will laugh at you in the afterlife.”
“Let them laugh.”
“Then take it as notification. canvas I won’t sacrifice any more dwarves.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Yes, I sinned against them. aluminum So what? beacon I just did what I believed was the best choice.”
He never thought to ask for forgiveness.
He didn’t even hope for redemption.
Adguif laughed as well.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“What a disgusting statement.”
“If I could go back, I’d do the exact same thing.”
“Maybe to you, I’m just a dwarf mad from his own people’s genocide, easy to use. academy And maybe that’s true.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Even if he built mountains of dwarf corpses and rivers of their blood flooded the city.
“Dozens, hundreds, or thousands of times.”
But Adguif could carry that burden.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
Because either way, the dwarves had no future.
“I would’ve always made the same choice.”
They’d either die slowly in isolation, or sacrifice half to save the rest.
And Adguif chose the second.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
That was his ideal, his duty.
There was only one thing he regretted.
Even if others called it madness. arcade Even if they cursed him as a villain.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“Because the situation has changed. amateur Before, it was the best option. atlas But now, someone kinder than you has arrived—a savior. silence There’s no need to continue.”
“What a cheap sophistry. timber So why change your mind now?”
Believing the mayor had expelled Fernan Pellenberg, he let anger get the better of him and acted rashly.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“I’m not. action I’m just doing what I believe is right.”
“You just turned the dead dwarves into meaningless deaths. harbor Adguif, don’t pretend nobility.”
And now, he was sure that choice was right.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
“You’re no longer necessary. meadow If you won’t step down peacefully—then die. voyage For the dwarves.”
Count Daniel unleashed his magic.
Aura surged from Adguif, wrapping his axe in a brown glow.
“So then…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
The monsters charged.
“Kill that vile corrupt who massacred hundreds of his brothers!”
“Elves, dwarves, filthy trash! apron You all underestimate us!”
The dwarves raised their weapons and charged forward.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 169 by Indra Translations.
The tunnel collapsed.
