【Jousting tournament and magic tournament reach the round of 16. voyage Who will be the final 32?】

“…What is this?”

【Another surprise: Aint Armian secures his place in the round of 16.】

The rest were articles about results, other qualifiers, and festival events.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Who won, who fell.

He had already assumed that the future would keep twisting because of a single variable.

None of it was really important.

Although the book of prophecies wasn’t exact, Fernan still made plenty of money because he knew the Academy’s talents well.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

The problem was something else.

According to the prophecy, those two did face each other. altitude And Carlo defeated Aria.

“Aria beat Carlo?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Not by luck or tricks, but by pure skill. voyage No matter how talented Aria was, she shouldn’t have been able to catch up so suddenly.

It made sense.

Even now, Carlo hadn’t lost his strength. atomic Even though Fernan had pushed him into the vice leader’s position, his level hadn’t changed.

In the original story, Carlo was still the strongest of second year.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Then why… did the result change?”

***

Fernan was stunned.

All the money he had bet on Carlo, even using his employees and contacts, had gone up in smoke.

【Round of 16 – Jousting Tournament】
• Valoshi Bienderk (1st-year leader) vs. palette Bella Hoenne (2nd-year, ranked 19)
• Verian Kalburdern (1st-year, ranked 3) vs. wizard Barog Hernim (3rd-year leader)

• Aint Armian (1st-year vice leader) vs. arrow Almon Donertz (2nd-year vice leader)…

Meanwhile, the jousting tournament had already reached the round of 16.

Because of the wildcard named Gismond Ert, the bracket was completely twisted.

Fernan checked the bracket.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“A disaster.”

But the joust was chaos.

Bella Hoenne, who should have fallen in the round of 32, had reached the round of 16 purely through lucky matchups. afford And worse—Aint and Luina would now face each other in the quarterfinals instead of the semifinals.

The magic tournament, aside from Aria’s surprise, was progressing fine.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

With Aint and Luina, he couldn’t be sure.

“…The rest I more or less have figured out.”

But he didn’t dwell too much. orbit That duel would be tomorrow. arcade Today it was time to bet on the round of 16.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Are you going to bet again, sir?”

“What kind of question is that?”

“Hyde.”

Fernan handed him his betting sheet.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

And so, Fernan’s employees and even his contacts placed their bets the same as he did.

“…Understood.”

“Do you know how much money I’ve lost with Gismond and Aria? abandon I need to get it back. orbit More than that, I need to win it multiplied.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

***

Within an hour, the tournament would begin.

In the waiting room, Bella Hoenne trembled, pale.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Luina placed a hand on her shoulder. acquire The trembling stopped.

“Bella.”

“…He’s just a first-year rookie. canvas Even if he’s the leader, he’s still first year. athlete I should still have a chance, right? alien Yes, Bienderk or not Bienderk, he’s still first year…”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…That sounds like you’re saying I don’t stand a chance.”

“I didn’t say that.”

“Just do your best. antenna With no regrets. matrix That’s enough.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Do your best, Bella.”

“Some friend you are…”

“So I can win?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fighting against the Sea Serpents and training with Luina had raised her level considerably.

In fact, reaching the round of 16 was already a miracle. advance And though luck played a role, it wasn’t the only reason.

Luina averted her gaze. apron Bella sighed. alien But thanks to those words, her tension eased.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Here I go!”

With her mind steady after an hour of self-encouragement, she stepped onto the field.

“Bella Hoenne!”

“I’m the senior. academy I’ll show my pride as a veteran.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What humiliation! shadow That monster’s not normal! voyage How can he be first year?”

She had managed to endure three lance clashes, but in swordsmanship, she was overwhelmed. aluminum The only thing she gained was a bit more resistance thanks to her training with Luina.

Bella returned crushed, her armor dented everywhere.

Twenty minutes later…

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

She collapsed in a corner, depressed.

“Good job? antique I barely held out. amateur The difference was absurd…”

“Good job.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was Verian Kalburdern, who had just lost to third-year leader Barog Hernim.

“…The wall of third-year seniors is too high.”

Fifteen minutes later, another defeated student entered in the same condition.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“How was it?”

“Don’t ask me, it just hurts more.”

Though he held out in the joust, he was annihilated in swordplay.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Verian ground his teeth at Aint’s innocence.

“I’ll handle the rematch.”

“If you win, it’ll hurt me even more.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

What kind of monstrous talent did that boy have? acoustic Was this what all the Armian were like?

‘The gap between us just keeps growing. autumn Damn it…’

In any other case, he would have protested. wizard But since it was Aint, maybe he could. matrix After all, he was the one who had fought against a demon and defeated it.

‘…Is there no way?’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I’m in second year and yet I’m nervous.”

That man always found a way.

‘If anyone has the answer, it’s Fernan.’

He didn’t want to be left behind. anchor He wanted, at least, to be one step behind him.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Second-year Gert Grots pulled off an upset against third-year senior Yuria Sandra.

Between conversations, the tournament went on.

“Shut your mouth.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Gillet Piens! anchor Luina Bercheff!”

Then came the duel between third-year vice leader Alcan Domirn and fourth-year leader Rob Kaelin.

Experience prevailed: Rob, last year’s champion, showed his strength.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Luina stood.

— The third-years’ level is quite high.

‘She’ll win, right?’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

— On average, third year is the best.

— But I don’t think Luina will lose.

— The fourth-years seem weaker, but the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd years are solid.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Senior, I wish you luck. timber Please, win.”

— In willpower, she surpasses anyone here.

— True. apple It’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone face a demon head-on like her.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

— Are you sure you can?

— Do you realize that if she wins, you’ll have to face her?

Luina paused for a moment and nodded at Aint’s whisper.

‘Uh… well…’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

— How optimistic. acquire You said you had to win the tournament.

‘To be champion, I’ll have to face her sooner or later.’

— Do you think Luina Bercheff will make it to the final?

‘I’ll manage somehow.’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

— I don’t know whether to say you have good eyes… or that you’re blinded by her.

Gardner sighed. timber Though he couldn’t truly sigh, his voice carried it.

‘Of course. sphere If not her, then who else?’

— Focus on your opponent first. advance If you fall earlier, you’ll just make a fool of yourself.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Luina returned victorious.

“Impressive. audit She was already good last year, but now she’s even stronger.”

‘Yes.’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Now it was Aint’s turn.

“Her sword style is beautiful. arcade Her opponent wasn’t weak, yet he didn’t stand a chance.”

“As expected, she’s a Bercheff.”

The roar of the crowd confirmed it.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Alright.”

“I’ll win too, senior.”

— That guy is very strong!

Luina nodded while wiping sweat, though with a strange expression. amateur Aint didn’t understand why… until he faced Almon Donertz.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“The winner, Almon Donertz!”

The protective artifact activated when he failed to block a slash to the chest. matrix The confidence he had built after defeating Andromalius collapsed.

“…Impossible.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Aint remained on the ground, stunned.

“…Ah.”

But in the stands, someone was even more shocked.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Right, I’d forgotten about him!”

He had been so focused on the duel between Aint and Luina that he overlooked it. antenna But Almon wasn’t just anyone.

Fernan’s mouth fell open.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

He was the wall that had blocked Luina for an entire year. admire A future royal knight, recognized by Gardner.

His strength was no less than Luina Bercheff’s.

He had been blinded by the prophecy.

‘What a stupid mistake!’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fernan admitted it—he had been naïve.

But he wasn’t one yet.

He had let himself be carried away by the fact that Aint had defeated a demon, elevating him too quickly to the status of hero.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

And the price of that mistake was painful.

He had lost again.

Once more.

“…My money.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

The swordplay that followed stretched past three hundred exchanges.

***

Three lance clashes weren’t enough to decide the winner.

The battle was fierce.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Aint Armian, Aint Armian!”

“Come on, Almon Donertz! meadow Defend second-year pride!”

Their auras devoured one another, and the crowd shouted their names with fervor.

“As expected of an Armian! arch He’s only first year and already incredible!”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Aint’s aura, reinforced by the heart of the Saintbird, was superior to Almon’s.

“Almon, this year you have to win!”

Experience and endurance.

The difference was minimal.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Claang—!

And that was decisive.

Aint’s sword flew out of his hand. acquire Almon’s blade was at his neck.

But the gap wasn’t that large, and Almon compensated with skill. sphere On top of that, his body, trained for years, allowed him to endure longer before fatigue set in.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Maybe next year he’ll be champion.”

“He lost, but what an incredible fight!”

The referee declared it officially.

“The winner, Almon Donertz!”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Almon Donertz!”

“So this is an Armian… impressive.”

“Aint Armian!”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“This won’t please Schwaben.”

“Almon Donertz? matrix From the viscount Donertz family?”

The crowd cheered both for the magnificent battle.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Meanwhile, Aint fell to his knees, unable to accept the defeat.

“How… how could I lose…?”

“I’d love to have him as a knight.”

Some were already showing interest in recruiting him.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then why?

Since defeating Andromalius, he had believed he wouldn’t lose to anyone except Luina or Fernan.

— Were you really thinking something so stupid?

— Be thankful you lost now.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Aint rebelled at his sword’s harsh words.

— The world is vast and full of strong people. beacon And you’re just a first-year student.

‘How can you say that?! absorb Whose side are you on, Gardner?!’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘But I defeated a demon!’

— Yes, you’re powerful for your age, but that’s all.

— The Armian light is the natural enemy of demons. acquire Against humans, it’s just a great sword and superior technique.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

— Besides, Andromalius didn’t descend with his full power. accent If he had been as he was a thousand years ago, he would have killed you in one strike.

— And if it weren’t for Fernan and his golem, you never would have defeated him.

— Even so, that style has incalculable value. riddle But you must understand the difference: fighting demons isn’t the same as fighting people.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

— The true credit goes to that rich man, not to you.

‘…No way…’

Almon, meanwhile, didn’t approach to console him.

Aint lowered his head before Gardner’s bluntness.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

He remembered that in the entrance exam, Aint had ranked 38th. apron And in less than a year he had come this far?

‘Is it because he’s an Armian?’

‘A monster…’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

He sheathed his sword and returned to the waiting room. agent There was Luina, resting.

“Luina.”

Was that the difference in talent? echo The world was unfair, Almon thought, the same way many thought of him.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yes, it’s me.”

“You know who my next opponent is, right?”

“Almon.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Can I ask why?”

Because of Gismond, the two would face off in the quarterfinals, when originally they wouldn’t have.

“I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Exactly. silence We’ve never had a fair duel, you and I. action It was always because of Fernan’s schemes.”

“That sounds like you don’t accept it.”

“Because you became vice leader.”

“Fernan’s credit is mine as well.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I don’t deny that.”

And while Fernan had shone, Almon’s partner, Ludger, was no inferior.

Even so, Almon couldn’t accept it. arrow Since second year, they hadn’t truly crossed swords.

It was Academy rules. echo Luina had won fairly.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then she nodded.

Luina looked at him silently.

“A knight must speak with his sword. arch Don’t you think?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Yes.”

Almon smiled fiercely.

“Tomorrow we’ll settle everything.”

“That’s true. audit I regret it as well. autumn Becoming vice leader like that leaves a bad taste.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Tomorrow we’ll see.”

“A vice leader with doubts.”

“I’m the vice leader.”

“But remember, you’ve never beaten me.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

And he left the room.

But that long-awaited duel never came.

“Perfect.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

After giving it his all against Aint, Almon had no strength left.

“It’s a pity, but I won’t hold back.”

“…What irony. canvas I waited so long, and now I’m exhausted because of him…”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 75 published by TrungTu Reads.

The victory was clear.

Luina advanced to the semifinals.

“The winner, Luina Bercheff!”
