Chapter 232

After passing through the Kaldis Strait, between the continents of Lutar and Pandrein, they reached their destination.

The ship advanced swiftly.

“Finally, solid ground.”

Luina, who hadn’t been able to train with her sword as she wanted on the ship, stretched as she stepped on land.

“Yes, Sir Garrett. palette From Lake Parma we’ll take a boat to enter the kingdom of Linelt.”

“Are we heading to Lake Parma now?”

Fernan recalled the prophecy.

“Exactly.”

“And that’s where I come in?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

The 62nd-ranked demon, Valac, would be summoned.

The summoning of Valac was different from the previous ones.

A summoning that would end up destroying the kingdom of Linelt and later unite it with the two demons who had devastated Bercheff in a terrible future.

“If you go personally, Sir Garrett, they will have no choice but to receive you.”

Garrett wasn’t just any mercenary—he was the Mercenary King and a Royal Knight.

There wasn’t a nation that could ignore that status.

Until now, demons had been summoned in secret, avoiding the eyes of the powerful. apple But this time it would be the opposite.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

That would be the beginning.

If the cultists reacted, they would be caught under that pretext. zenith If they stayed quiet, they would be agitated until they were forced to come out.

The key was simple—with the arrival of the Mercenary King, destabilize the palace and use the confusion to approach key figures and extract information.

Neither the nobles of the kingdom nor the infiltrated cultists could openly reject his visit, even if they didn’t understand why he had come.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Leave the details to me. voyage All you need to do is simple—be received as an honored guest in the kingdom and, when the demon is summoned, kill it.”

“And that’ll be enough?”

The prophecy book gave an overall vision, but with so many changes, it could no longer be fully trusted to play out exactly the same.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“But since it’s inside the royal palace, couldn’t it escalate into a diplomatic problem?”

“That’s what I do best.”

Garrett laughed, baring his teeth. riddle Knowing Fernan would handle the complicated parts put him in a good mood.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

Garrett, after all, was a mercenary with no official allegiance.

“That’s precisely why you must be at the forefront. airport That’s the reason.”

Upon arriving in the kingdom of Linelt, Fernan went straight to one of the secret hideouts of the Golden Turtle Guild.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

He could have used the guild’s trade networks directly, but with so many people coming and going, it was safer to remain hidden.

The hideout was a luxurious mansion in one of the capital’s upscale neighborhoods.

Aint and the rector were far too recognizable to go unnoticed.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was the perfect hideout for an operation that wouldn’t be resolved quickly.

It had been acquired under a false name, and only the guild’s high command knew its true ownership.

Additionally, in the basement, there was a training field sealed with magical circles so no sound or impact would leak outside.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Then, for now, leave the preparations to me. advance You all rest here. aspect The important thing is that you don’t leave under any circumstances. legend Especially you, Rector, and Aint.”

“Did you say there’s a training field in the basement?”

“Yes.”

“Understood.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Of course, senior. canvas If you want to face demons, you need more training.”

“Me too?” asked Gismond.

Recalling Fernan’s request to keep a close watch on him, Aint dragged him down almost by force.

Luina, still feeling stiff after the journey, went straight down to train. beacon Aint followed her.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yes. wizard You don’t need to do anything special, they’ll react on their own.”

“All right, then I’ll go.”

The rector, on the other hand, was taken to the best room in the mansion to rest in comfort.

“Very well.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Mercenary King headed to the inn where the Red Wolf Company was staying. abandon From there, he would go directly to the palace to meet with the king or, failing that, his representatives.

“Yes, young master.”

“Now the busy part begins, Hyde.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Also look closely into the second prince’s close associates.”

“Is he the culprit?”

“Investigate Herbis Linelt, Antenor Linelt, Gerlan Linelt, and Yuli Linelt.”

“The king, the first and second princes, and the eldest princess of the kingdom of Linelt.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yes.”

Most of the changes caused by Fernan had affected the Empire, not external kingdoms.

At least, if the prophecy unfolded exactly as foretold.

The origin of it all—the demon’s summoning and the fall of the kingdom—was tied to the second prince, Gerlan Linelt.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“The kingdom of Linelt walks on a knife’s edge. canvas So, instead of using the Golden Pillar’s people or the family, use the Black Turtles.”

“Are you sure? crystal The Black Turtles report directly to the duke…”

That’s why, in Linelt, there was a higher chance the story would follow its original course.

And if not, there should at least be traces.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

He had written to the duke before leaving and had received the reply during the journey.

“I already have his permission.”

Fernan tossed him a letter bearing the patriarch’s seal, temporarily granting him command over the Black Turtles.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Good.”

“As expected of you, young master. atomic I’ll leave at once.”

Surely the Black Turtles had already activated their intelligence network in Linelt.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Dantalion…”

“Has he completely abandoned this place? portal Or just doesn’t expect me to arrive so soon?”

Hyde disappeared swiftly. anchor Fernan remained, staring at the large mural map of the kingdom of Linelt.

He recalled the face of the demon that had escaped him. acoustic Perhaps Dominique’s face wasn’t his true appearance.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

He would soon have his answer.

Hyde returned after two days.

***

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yes.”

“The king is still bedridden, it seems.”

“For now, I’ve brought the most general information. alien Currently, in the Kingdom of Linelt, the second prince, Gerlan Linelt, is serving as regent.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

Finally, in just a few months, he appointed the second prince as regent and withdrew.

Until then, he had been healthy, but from that moment he contracted such a severe illness that he could barely move and ended up relegated to spending all day in bed.

The current king, Herbis Linelt, had suddenly fallen ill about three years ago.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was an incident that had once made noise not only in the Kingdom of Linelt but across the entire continent, and Fernan remembered it well.

If someone asked why it wasn’t the first prince but the second who assumed the regency, the answer was something known even without needing the prophecy book.

“Yes, that’s what they say.”

“Is Antenor Linelt still locked up in the secondary palace since that incident?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Understood. arrow And here are three people considered close to Gerlan Linelt.”

“His exact location?”

“When they find him, bring him immediately.”

“Not clear yet, but the Black Turtles are investigating it.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

If the prophecy book had mentioned specific names, it would be easy, but it hadn’t.

So there was no choice but to examine the three one by one and wear themselves out in inquiries.

Hyde handed him a thick report.

“Then among these there must be a corrupt one.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

The first princess of the Kingdom of Linelt.

While slowly leafing through the documents, Fernan asked about the most important thing besides the corrupt:

The essential key to this entire matter lay in her hands.

“Where is Yuli Linelt?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

The carpets were luxurious and the ornaments elegant.

A high ceiling adorned with a lavish chandelier.

‘It’s not the first time I’ve entered a palace, but every time I come I break out in hives.’

Perhaps it was because he had spent his life on the streets.

To Garrett Schreiner, that opulence of the palace was suffocating.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Though it tastes good.’

He preferred a hard wooden chair to a soft armchair, and a noisy tavern to a hall crammed with antiques.

He bit into a fruit served by a servant and was surprised by how sweet it was. avalanche He liked it very much.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

Click, the door opened.

“His Highness the Regent Gerlan Linelt.”

At that moment, he sensed movement outside. anxiety Knock, knock, someone tapped at the door.

He was used to a simple environment, but that didn’t mean he hated the exquisite.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“The honor is mine, to meet the famous Mercenary King.”

The regent of the kingdom, Gerlan Linelt, was a man with platinum blond hair and black eyes. matrix He had a strong build and a handsome, gallant face.

Garrett finished swallowing the fruit and wiped the juice from his lips any which way. matrix He stood to receive the prince.

“An honor to meet you for the first time, Your Highness.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“On the contrary, I am honored by your reception.”

“Since His Majesty is unwell, I ask you to understand that I receive you in his stead.”

“Honored, you say? wizard But you’re the hero who slew a demon!”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

Gerlan sat across from him. arena At his signal, everyone left the room except for a personal guard.

“You might be even more surprised.”

“I was surprised that the hero everyone talks about came to our kingdom.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What do you mean?”

“Aren’t you curious why I’m here?”

At Gerlan’s intrigued look, Garrett continued.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I’m a man of few twists, so I’ll get straight to the point.”

“Of course, but…”

Garrett leaned back in the chair with his arms crossed. altitude His attitude seemed insolent, but Gerlan swallowed hard without retorting.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

A demon hunter.

Not only had he achieved the supreme title of Royal Knight as a mere mercenary, but he had also defeated a demon.

The position of the Mercenary King was no longer what it had been.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

That’s why, even though his visit was sudden, he couldn’t be treated lightly.

With demons appearing one after another, and a man capable of facing and killing them standing before him, Gerlan had no choice. absorb His value would only keep growing.

Except for Aint Armian, who had killed a demon at the Academy, no one else could claim such a feat.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Of course. acquire It was the first to appear in a thousand years, and fortunately you were able to kill it. autumn Without you two, it would have been impossible.”

“You must know that I, together with the border count of Bercheff, defeated a demon.”

That’s why he had rushed as soon as he heard the news, and now, with Garrett setting the pace of the conversation, he felt increasingly tense.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

Garrett smiled smugly.

“In any case, that day I thought it was only the beginning.”

“That’s right.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Since then I’ve been tracking the corrupt. altitude It turns out they’ve been infiltrated for a long time, like a spiderweb. attic They were more than we thought and more widespread than we believed.”

And rightly so—a little later another demon had descended at the Academy. amber It wasn’t just a supposition, it was reality.

“I see.”

“I’m sure everyone on the continent thought the same.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

Gerlan’s eyes widened and Garrett drove the wedge in.

“…What are you saying?”

“And one of those trails led me here, to the Kingdom of Linelt.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

So—

“I would like Your Highness to help me. acquire To eliminate the corrupt hiding in Linelt.”

“My idea was to handle it myself, but the truth is my experience is mostly in the Empire. altitude In a foreign kingdom, if I start acting with my mercenaries it could cause problems.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 232 published by TrungTu Reads.

“For Your Highness it wouldn’t be a bad thing either, don’t you think?”

The Mercenary King smiled broadly.

Or rather, if he truly wanted to protect the kingdom, it was something that had to be done.

The wolf showed a calm smile, while his predator’s eyes slowly observed every movement of his prey.

‘Let’s see how he reacts.’
