A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?!

The city of Bellak, one of the satellite towns of the capital, had become the kingdom’s temporary seat.

The carriage stopped in front of an elegant tea salon owned by the royal family.

“We’ve arrived.”

“No problem.”

When Fernan stepped down and entered, the manager, already informed, discreetly led him to a private room.

“Sorry for the delay.”

Princess Yuli of Linelt offered him a glass of cold water.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Gladly.”

“Please, eat. alien The chef here is quite good.”

As Fernan sat down, the food was served immediately.

“If we had to choose the busiest person in Linelt today, nine out of ten would pick you. autumn I’m grateful you made time to see me.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“The reason I called you today is to give you something in return.”

“I suspected as much.”

Fernan tasted the dish. anchor Just as she had said, it was quite good.

Yuli picked up a piece of river fish and brought it to her mouth.

Moreover, the aid program that lent money to hundreds of thousands of citizens while charging interest to the kingdom had already brought massive profits to the company.

Rebuilding the capital required far more effort and money than building a new one from scratch.

“We’ve already entrusted the Golden Turtle Company with the capital’s reconstruction and the emergency aid program, and yet you haven’t turned anything down, huh?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What do you mean?”

“The reconstruction was an inevitable project. adjust The capital is the historical symbol of Linelt—someone had to handle it, and we simply won the bid.”

“Your calculation is curious, Your Highness.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Of course, his influence had helped, but officially, that was the case.

Had they done so, it would have been grounds for rebellion.

“It’s the same with the aid program. artist Even if we hadn’t participated, the kingdom would have had to create a fund for its people. aspect They couldn’t just abandon them.”

“So yes, the Golden Turtle Company made enormous profits, but did the Kingdom of Linelt lose anything from it?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

In normal times, that alone would have been a massive reward.

No. abandon Even though the economic burden increased, the interest rates offered by the company were unusually low.

Only the scale of the loan made the total seem overwhelming.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I suppose that’s why Your Highness wanted to organize this meeting, isn’t it?”

But these weren’t normal times—the value of the Kingdom of Linelt surpassed any legitimate contract.

Indeed, it hadn’t been Fernan who requested the meeting—it was Princess Yuli herself.

“…Let’s say I had my doubts. admire If you had already told me you’d received something, I would’ve simply left.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…I don’t think I’m cut out for politics.”

“And coming in with such an obvious air of wanting to give something—how could I refuse?”

“The First Prince will manage just fine.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What is this?”

“Take it.”

Yuli pulled out a key ring from her purse and placed it on the table.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Do you know Bartia?”

The Kingdom of Helfen was in the southwest of the Lutar continent, bordering the Marquessate of Fridian.

“The royal family has a mansion registered under a false name in Bartia. adapt In its basement, there’s a vault.”

“The major city of the Kingdom of Helfen? attic Yes, one of the five main cities along with the capital.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

She pushed the key ring toward him.

Fernan immediately understood that this vault was the same one he had seen in the prophecy.

“From today on, both the mansion and the vault are yours. crystal My father grants them to you.”

“Well.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Yuli murmured with amusement.

“You really like money. alpha Do you know what face you just made?”

A smile formed on his face.

He had finally obtained what he was looking for.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What face did I make?”

“I think keeping a bit of innocence when enjoying what you love isn’t a bad thing—like how you like handsome men, for example.”

“The face of a child who finally gets the toy he wanted.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“W-What?”

The princess flinched at the sudden comment.

“That’s why I want to ask you something.”

“Relax, I didn’t mean to offend. adapt It’s natural to feel attracted to someone beautiful. amber After all, appearance is also a form of power.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Are you in love with Aint?”

“What is it?”

“……!”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Is it that obvious?”

Yuli’s face lit up.

In a tiny voice, barely audible, she replied.

“A little, yes.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“If you’d like, I can help a bit.”

“Really?”

She covered her face with both hands.

“…Oh god.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I could arrange a meeting, but the rest is up to you.”

“Of course!”

Yuli’s eyes sparkled with determination, the same fervor Fernan showed when it came to money.

Normally, Fernan wouldn’t have gotten involved, but after all he had gained in Linelt, he could afford the favor.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“A commercial?”

“Ah, by the way… have you thought about filming a commercial?”

If anything stood out about Yuli, it was her white, soft, radiant skin—the kind of skin every woman envied.

Thinking about that, Fernan smiled as he imagined the perfect slogan.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Even amid the chaos brought by the arrival of demons, skin must remain flawless!”

Flos was the Golden Turtle Company’s luxury cosmetics brand.

“Me? canvas I use Flos products.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Alright.”

“Of course. artist And the compensation for participating will be generous.”

“So, are you saying you’ll only organize the meeting with Aint if I film the commercial?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

***

Yuli and Fernan’s eyes met, reflecting the same calculating gleam.

“The pleasure is mine.”

“I appreciate your cooperation.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Oh, brother!”

He couldn’t believe a “tree that gave so much without asking anything in return” actually existed.

For a moment, he thought he might just spend the rest of his life in Linelt.

After a successful negotiation, Fernan stepped out onto the street.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I had a matter to attend to. galaxy And you? attic Still on relief duty?”

“What brings you here?”

Someone called out to him.

It was Jace Vines, the Saint of the Dragon God Cult, with his fiery red hair and bright green eyes.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Among them was also the Dragon God Cult, which had dispatched a large relief mission led by its Saint.

Since the demons had descended and destroyed the capital, all the continent’s attention had turned to Linelt.

“Yes, that’s right.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

It had already been a week since then.

“Not too bad. timber At first, there weren’t enough shelters, but more and more temporary tents are going up. album And most importantly, thanks to the kingdom’s announcement, people have regained their spirit.”

What drains a person most isn’t the present hardship, but the lack of hope.

“How are the refugees?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

That had restored their faith in the future.

But now, the citizens of the capital knew that once reconstruction was complete, they would be given a home equal to what they had before, free of charge.

It would be a colossal expense, but after it was revealed that the second prince had conspired with corrupt officials and destroyed the capital, the king had no other choice.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fortunately, the people saw him as a victim—a father betrayed by his own son.

“Yes, I heard.”

“That makes me glad.”

“Ah, by the way, did you hear that an emergency meeting of the prince-electors has been convened?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

With the current situation, it would be absurd for one not to form.

“It seems a real alliance might finally form this time.”

Regardless of who led it, the process would move forward.

“Most likely.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Oh, I also heard that Professor Rosalia is going to challenge the test to become an Archmage…”

Her opponent was Bador Elverto, Duke of the Kingdom of Helfen and a court mage, carefully chosen by the king himself, taking both strength and magical compatibility into account.

“That’s right.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Royal Knights were appointed by the emperor, while Archmages were designated by the pope of the Dragon God Cult.

“The Dragon God Cult is very excited. absorb It’s been a long time since such a challenger appeared, and the emergence of a new Archmage in these demonic times holds great meaning.”

The process was simple—the challenger had to duel one of the ten superhuman beings before the pope and a large audience, in a near-death battle.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Congratulations.”

“Oh, come on. sphere Everyone knows you’ve supported the professor all along, both materially and personally.”

“There’s nothing to congratulate me for.”

Jace lowered his voice.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“The Dragon God Cult’s information network is impressive.”

“I’m flattered.”

“I heard you plan to propose her as the new rector. orbit Is that true?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Thank you.”

“I wish you success in everything.”

The Saint smiled broadly.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I’ll buy as much as possible under the name of the Golden Turtle Company.”

“Well, the price has gone up a bit—demand is high.”

“Oh, do you need more holy water? abstract I heard you’ve been using quite a bit lately.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“As expected of you, brother.”

“That’s not a problem.”

After all, Fernan was buying it with someone else’s money.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

A profitable business for both parties—Pellenberg and the Dragon God Cult.

Probably not in Linelt, but that didn’t matter.

“I’m going to see Luina.”

“And where are you headed now?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Inside the moving carriage, Fernan reviewed a new report.

More than 150,000 people had applied for emergency relief funds.

“Wow, quite a few applications.”

***

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

A huge number—and the amount of money requested was just as large.

And even then, Fernan’s personal resources were nearly depleted.

Even for the Golden Turtle Company, gathering that much capital at once wasn’t easy.

If not for the royal treasures embezzled by Patrick Pirandello, it would’ve been impossible.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

The money was beginning to run out.

‘If things get tough, I’ll have to use the Kingdom of Helfen’s funds I got in Linelt. sphere I need more capital.’

His confidence always came from having deep pockets.

The problem was that more requests were pouring in every day.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Is that why you’re going to see Luina?”

Infusing mana into his magic register, a video was projected.

“Yes.”

It showed the moment Luina pierced Valac’s fist with her sword, when the demon bit down in fury, and still, the blade suffered only a minor scratch.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

With a good promotional campaign and an auction, that weapon would be worth a fortune.

“And do you think Luina will give it to you?”

The hilt, barely marked, had even gained a distinctive touch—like a personal signature.

“If I sell this, I’ll be able to breathe easy with my personal finances.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“No.”

“There are two adamantite alloy swords. orbit I’ll give her the other one in exchange.”

And if he offered her a share of the profits, he was sure she’d agree.

“……”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Of course I understand that. absorb That’s why I’m offering you another one made of adamantite.”

“That sword is mine. agent It’s very precious to me.”

His prediction was completely off.

“…Why not?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

The two swords were practically twins—same weight, same size.

“They’re identical. amateur Made by the same dwarf, just days apart.”

“I want that one.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I know that too.”

“A knight wields their sword since childhood. atomic They grow up with it, wield it day after day. altitude Even if we train with many weapons, the sword is the essence of a knight.”

“Then you must know a sword has special meaning for a knight.”

“I know.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Not a bow, not an axe, not armor—but a sword.

That’s why Fernan had given her one.

“Then it’ll be easier to explain.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“So I won’t sell it in any auction.”

“This was the first sword you gave me.”

The adamantite metal gleamed under the sunlight with majestic brilliance.

Luina unsheathed her weapon.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“No.”

And without giving him a chance to argue, she turned and walked away.

Hyde shook his head.

“I suspected it—a young master who only thinks about money understands nothing about women.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fernan interrupted him.

“Sir, that sounds terrible. apple This isn’t a matter that can be solved with money…”

‘If a problem can’t be solved, maybe it’s not for lack of logic—but lack of money.’

“This is the moment to recall an old merchant saying.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“If you don’t like 20%, I’ll give you 30%!”

“40%!”

Luina didn’t stop.

But Fernan cut him off, yelling.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“50%! airport I’ll give you 50%, I can’t go higher!”

She quickened her pace.

Fernan gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and shouted.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then, Luina stopped.

Hyde’s eyes widened.

“…Are you serious?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…You’ve truly become a merchant, Luina Bercheff. shadow I lost. arcade Completely.”

“Alright.”

She turned around and stood before Fernan.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Being by your side all these years taught me a few things.”

“How could the noble Luina Bercheff, who once revered justice and loyalty, end up like this? acoustic You’re already paying your debt by fighting alongside me against the demons.”

Luina unfastened the sword from her belt.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Then why?”

“Because only by paying off my debt completely can I consider myself your equal.”

“I’m not that greedy for money.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I don’t need that 50%. abandon Use it to settle the debt House Bercheff owes to Pellenberg.”

“What?”

She fastened the new sword to her waist.

With that, she smiled softly and walked away.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 255 published by TrungTu Reads.

Murmured Hyde.

Fernan watched her in silence until she disappeared completely.

“…They really don’t seem like a normal couple.”
