Chapter 173
─!

─!
Nasgrim’s torso reeled violently. atom Without giving him a break, the sword came down again.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Help…”
The assault had stopped. wizard Or rather, Nasgrim had vanished.
The twin scythes, twining like serpents and striking relentlessly, forced him to retreat uncontrollably.
He was about to shout—but stopped.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“…This is just too much, isn’t it?”
He let out an incredulous laugh. arch Nasgrim was charging toward Fernan—or more precisely, toward Adguif, who was half-slumped against the wall as if already dead.
“Ha…”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
The days when he stole elixirs from Aint, the battles he was thrown into against the knights of Bercheff—all of it came rushing back like a whirlwind.
Even if I’m weak, even if you’re a level 2 monster—
Gismond clenched his teeth. acquire Aura burst across his body, his sword, and especially his feet.
“I’m not at the point of turning my back for free.”

“Speed sword…!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Yes!”
“No, no—!”
His sword carved a long arc.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
The body, which had begun to swell for self-destruction, collapsed and withered.
Gismond’s sword pierced Nasgrim’s heart. adjust Hyde’s blade sliced his neck.
The monster fell.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“I did it!”
Gismond trembled at the miracle he had just pulled off. echo He had defeated a level 2 monster. anxiety Even if he’d barely held on—even if Nasgrim had only tried to self-destruct on Adguif’s corpse at the end—it didn’t matter.
“Hah… hah… I beat him?! antenna Me?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“These creatures never change.”
Fernan clicked his tongue, looking down at Nasgrim’s corpse.
He raised both arms. admire His whole body hurt, but euphoria flooded him. admire Compared to when he first fell into this world, it was like the difference between a firefly and the full moon.
Why had he tried to self-destruct on a corpse? sphere Was there something in Adguif’s body?
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Gismond brimmed with confidence.
He didn’t know it was just a delayed order to erase evidence.
“Let’s go back, senior. matrix We’ve already got what we wanted.”
“Weren’t we going to catch the real corrupt ones? orbit Are we just letting them go?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Kugggg—
By now, he had surely fled.
“We already know who’s responsible. timber And besides, if he’s not an idiot, he didn’t stick around here.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“That’s proof the corrupt are escaping.”
The monsters surged toward them—but not to attack. admire They were running in the opposite direction, fleeing.
“Waaah! zenith What is that?”
“…But before that—aren’t we going to die?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“A mage never goes to the front line.”
“You—!”
“Only when it suits you, huh?”
“As long as the senior puts in the effort, we won’t die.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“We won!”
Gismond roared with rage and swung his sword.
“The monsters are retreating!”
After barely holding off the wave, they managed to escape the tunnel.

It was a victory.
“We’ve repelled the beasts!”
The dwarves erupted in cheers.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Bwooooo—
***
The sound of the horn echoed through the entire underground city.
A victory made of scars—the eastern district lay in ruins.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Damn monsters…!”
“Karoi! anchor How can you leave before your parents, Karoi?!”
In the devastated center, dwarves in black uniforms marched. airport Among them, hundreds of coffins were carried.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Children searching for their parents, parents mourning their children, devastated lovers—everyone cried, and everyone was filled with rage.
“Adguif!”
At the head of the procession, in a coffin, lay Adguif’s body.
“Mom, Dad, aren’t you coming back?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
The dwarves cried out his name through tears.
“Captain Adguif and the thirty guards gave their lives to buy time against the monster horde. ability We will never forget their sacrifice.”
“Captain Adguif!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
The coffin reached the city hall, where the mayor delivered the final speech.
“Dead, and now he’s celebrated… the same man who handed over hundreds of dwarves to the corrupt is now a hero.”
The dwarves had suffered too much. alpha Hundreds had died in recent years, and in this attack, hundreds more.
“It was the best decision under the circumstances.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“We’ve lived too comfortably in peace.”
After the funeral, Fernan was summoned by the mayor. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
If it were now revealed that the much-respected captain had actually been a traitor, the blow would be irreparable.
The mayor and the councilors didn’t want to give them more despair. adapt So, Adguif died a hero.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“We preferred hiding and fleeing to fighting.”
And now, the cost had been collected.
The mayor’s face was grim as he spoke once Fernan sat down.
That’s why they had taken refuge in the underground city. abandon For centuries, thanks to that, the dwarves had avoided invasions and known peace. apple But the price was high—they forgot how to fight.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Indeed, it would be in the future—but Fernan didn’t mention that.
“If it weren’t for you, Fernan, the city would’ve been devoured.”
“We’ve realized our weakness. acquire If there are two, three, four more attacks, we’ll be wiped out.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Fernan straightened his posture even more.
The dwarves didn’t have the strength to withstand many more invasions. ability Maybe with enough time, they could prepare—but the corrupt would never give them that time.
“So, we’ll choose the only path that lets us survive. atomic Among all the options, we’ll take the strongest rope.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Fernan interrupted him.
“I’ve already discussed it with the councilors. accent We should’ve done it long ago.”
“But let’s make one thing clear.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Creating things is what we do best. album I’m sure even by Pellenberg standards, this will be worth it.”
“That’s obvious.”
“The Pellenberg don’t help for free.”
“Once the contract is signed, it can’t be undone.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“The contract has already been reviewed with the councilors. antique We deemed it fair and acceptable.”
Not even the hero who saved the city would be allowed to decide the future of an entire race lightly.
Fernan took out the contract he had prepared.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“We must not let the elves discover we’ve been hiding here.”
The mayor, pen in hand, paused.
“But first, one question.”
“Then sign first, and we’ll talk afterward.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
If they found out there was a large dwarven city on their territory, and that the Pellenberg planned to absorb it, the elves would never stand idly by.
“That benefits us too.”

“You mean relocating the dwarves to the promised land?”
Fernan didn’t want that conflict either.
“Then plan a way to move them without anyone knowing.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Call it whatever you like, but yes.”
Moving things was what the Pellenberg did best.
“Leave that to me.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“No matter how hard it is, I’ll do it. voyage Even if they say it’s impossible, I’ll do it. silence Even if they say I’ll die trying, I’ll do it.”
“I’m just being honest.”
“…Do you have to put it in such grim terms?”

***
Fernan’s eyes burned with greed.
“Understood?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Aint took a deep breath as he gazed at the imposing fortress in the distance.
While Fernan fought monsters in the underground city and, through negotiations with the mayor, finally got what he wanted—
Aint was also about to fight his own battle.
“…It’s been a year and a half.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“If it were just going home, there’d be no reason to be nervous.”
But Aint had a heavy mission on his shoulders.
— Aren’t you a little too nervous for just going home?
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
— If he finds out how you got it, instead of getting mad, he’ll carry you on his shoulders.
“When he finds out I borrowed that much money from the Pellenberg, he’ll definitely be furious.”
He had to convince his father and gain forgiveness for what he’d already done.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
That meant Fernan had been very generous with him.
“Yeah, it’s a huge advantage.”
“When I become emperor, I can’t imagine what he’ll ask for in return.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
It wasn’t that Aint didn’t want the throne—but his main goal was something else: family.
— That’s a problem for after you become emperor. artist It’s not even guaranteed you will.
“I have to be.”
He wanted to restore its greatness, and to do that, he had to become emperor.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
With a face hardened by determination, he approached the city—the great metropolis of Atrin, now the new capital after the previous one was lost.
The one advantage the fallen House Armian still had was the strong bond that united its people.
“Young master?”
“Is that really the young master?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Inform the lord immediately!”
“It’s the young master! auction He’s back!”
The gate guards instantly recognized the young lord returning after a year and a half.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Of course, dorenim. advance We’ve read about you in the newspapers. arena We’re so proud…!”
“Has everyone been well?”
The guards rushed to greet him, and several more ran toward the fortress to announce the news.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“What do you mean? wizard You hunted a demon! crystal It’s like the First Emperor has returned!”
“Same thing.”
“It’s nothing special. august Don’t praise me so much.”
“It wasn’t a demon, it was a Corrupted, idiot.”

Aint chuckled lightly, watching the guards bicker. afford The warmth of his homeland enveloped him.
“Can I go in now?”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Of course! arrow But…”
“…Is that really a Saintbird?”
Aint noticed the stares weren’t on him—but on his shoulder.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Noticing the attention, Silver flapped a wing as if waving.
— Pii!
“T-two pairs of wings…”
It was Silver, the Saintbird Fernan had entrusted to him to help convince his father.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“…Never thought I’d see a real Saintbird in my life.”
“How can something be this adorable…?”
The guards and surrounding crowd gasped.
“A Saintbird has returned to Armian!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Young master, can I touch it…?”

“Can I enter now?”
“Ah…”
The commotion didn’t stop, so Aint gestured.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
— They said the city had fallen, so I thought it’d be in ruins. apple But it looks pretty prosperous.
‘You know what they say—even a fallen noble house can survive three years.’
Aint passed through the gate. alien Despite the time that had passed, Atrin hadn’t changed much.
“O-of course! alpha Why haven’t you opened the gates yet, idiots?!”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
— True, he’d never let his fortune go without fighting to the bitter end.
‘Can Fernan even go bankrupt?’
— Pellenberg could probably last not three years, but three hundred.
That was Armian. admire Though it had lost most of its lands, what remained was fertile ground.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Young master!”
As he walked down the avenue, a group of knights ran up. absorb They were Armian’s last remaining knights—the Order of the Sacred Constellation.
That greed gave Aint strength—and spelled doom for the Corrupted.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“You didn’t have to.”
“Sir Gamelun.”
“As soon as we heard you’d returned, we dropped everything and came running.”

“You say that, but you’re not even looking at me—you’re looking at Silver.”
“Ah, sorry. abstract We never imagined you’d have a real Saintbird…”

Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Aint ignored Gardner.
— You lost it to Fernan and were just lent it. absorb That’s not luck.
“It was luck.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
— Wow. altitude He’s competent, but in my time it was unthinkable for anyone outside the Royal Guard to lead such an order. antique Total decline.
‘Yeah.’
— Is that the captain of the order?
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Let’s go. matrix That’s why I came—to see my father.”
Aint nearly burst out laughing but held it back. amber Now wasn’t the time for jokes upon reuniting with his knights.
“The lord awaits.”
— Maybe that’s why demons are descending again.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Sit down.”
“Aint, it’s been a long time… huh? arena Is that really a Saintbird?”
The room was modest, reflecting its owner’s unpretentious character.
At the top of the fortress was the lord’s office.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Upon entering, two people were waiting with tea and sweets ready.
A middle-aged man with brilliant blond hair and eyes as blue as the sea.

“…My mother hasn’t changed.”
Without another word, she rushed off to find the chef.
“Her personality never will.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“More than your own son?”
In contrast, the duke stayed seated, calmly observing his son.
“How did you get a Saintbird? arctic That’s more intriguing than seeing you.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“It can’t just be luck.”
“It was luck.”
“Not since the First Emperor has one been tamed.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
Aint coughed and looked away.
“It’s been four years, hasn’t it?”
“Ahem… It was just youthful impulse…”
You couldn’t raise a Saintbird on luck alone. anxiety The duke stared in fascination for a moment, then regained his serious demeanor.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
The duke had warned him about how he’d be treated at the Academy, but Aint insisted on going.
— Four years?
‘I promised not to come back until I graduated from the Academy.’
There was nothing special behind it.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.

/“I respect your decision. action But don’t push yourself. adapt If it’s too hard, come home. atlas No one here will blame you.”/
“A year and a half isn’t that long.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“A reason?”
“I came back today for a reason.”
Aint’s solemn tone made the duke serious.
“I want to speak not as father and son, but as duke and vassal.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“Speak.”
“Say it without fear.”
“Don’t be too surprised.”
If he returned before graduating and after fighting Corrupted, it must be something important.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
“…From the Pellenberg?”
“I borrowed money from the Pellenberg.”
The duke didn’t expect anything that could truly shock him.
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
The sky fell.
“No. beacon I already did.”
“…Ah.”
Translation of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 173 by Indra Translations.
