Chapter 96

“What are they and where are they?”

“Yes.”

“Are there more elixirs?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Berillin fruits contained mana, but in very small amounts.

In terms of rank, they were among the lowest.

“Nothing special. antenna Just berillin fruits.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

The important thing, however, was not that.

It was the fact that he kept acquiring them from somewhere.

Even so, they were still considered elixirs, with some value and difficult to obtain.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Where did he get them?”

“It’s suspected to have been during the open field Survival class, three days ago.”

“Suspected?”

Something not even Fernan, with his personal information network the Golden Pillar, could manage.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Magical devices could be bypassed in part thanks to the master key Fernan had given him, but running into a professor was another matter.

This was the Academy, a place full of magical security circles and experts.

“Even I can’t completely hide in a place full of professors and assistants.”

Hyde shook his head.

“No. harbor Extremely normal. sphere I have the report here.”

“And besides that?”

“Not a single clue?”

“Nothing else.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

He opened the first page. athlete Nothing stood out.

Finally, what Fernan had been waiting for.

Gismond Ert.

Born into the Ert family, he was called a genius from a young age.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

But after entering the Academy, he hit the wall of the true geniuses.

“In the second semester he began to stand out.”

So he spent the first semester as just another among the hundred average students, until—

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Feios?”

“As you’ll see in the report, Gismond traveled to several places. wizard One of them, as I already mentioned, was the south of Frazia. athlete Specifically…”

That was something he already knew. amber What Fernan was interested in was where he had been during those holidays.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“A fortress with walls over 20 meters tall and a vast plain. wizard What’s it called?”

Fernan’s eyes widened.

“Fortress Feios.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Could it be a coincidence?

And that wasn’t all.

“……”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Immediately, Fernan thought of the itarium.

“During these holidays, was he also in Altrierc?”

“Yes, he was.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Was there really no connection?

‘It can’t be…’

The itarium that Gismond had consumed, and the one that should have been there but had vanished.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Young master…”

An unsettling thought ran through his mind, and cold sweat drenched his back.

“I want you to find out one more thing.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What is it?”

Fernan didn’t want to finish the sentence.

“Whether Gismond Ert…”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…Whether he was struck by lightning.”

He prayed it wasn’t true.

Hyde left, but Fernan’s heart remained agitated for a long time.

***

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘It can’t be.’

Knowing the future alone wasn’t the same as sharing it.

It should be impossible.

His shock was equal to, or even greater than, what he felt when he himself was struck by lightning and saw the future.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

And if that person’s actions twisted fate, all of Fernan’s effort—his caution, his calculations, his struggle—would become meaningless.

If there was another like him, it meant there was a competitor.

Resources were limited.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

That was the one thing he couldn’t allow.

The value of the Book of Prophecies would plummet into trash.

“At this rate, I’ve missed all my classes…”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

【The border count’s house of Altrierc delivers all fragments of the Bell of Pasa to the Cult of the Dragon God…】

【The Cult of the Dragon God declares total effort to restore the Bell of Pasa…!】

He unfolded the morning newspaper.

He decided to take another day off.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

【Is this truly the end of the resurgence of the corrupt?】

【A continent in chaos. acid Now more than ever, it’s time to reclaim daily life…】

【Monsters active in the Taklakan desert and the corrupt who destroyed the Bell. wizard After a thousand years of silence, they bare their fangs once more.】

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

It made sense. silence The threat of the corrupt wasn’t just Altrierc’s problem—it was the entire continent’s.

Though it was an Academy newspaper, most of the news revolved around Taklakan and Altrierc.

【The 198th Continental Academic Congress will be held in ten days…!】

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was held every five years and was a key event for the Pellenberg family.

Fernan was especially interested.

‘Academic congress…’

The only other topic was the academic congress to be held in a week.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

The congress was a high-level gathering, a chance to learn.

Inventions always emerged there, and among them, one or two could generate fortunes.

‘I definitely have to go.’

Where there was money, there was Pellenberg. zenith Several of the attending mages were, in fact, sponsored by his family.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

The congress rotated among the domains of the seven electors, as a way to reinforce their power.

‘This time the venue is Vienderk.’

The Academy even encouraged attendance, pausing classes for three weeks in what they called the autumn holidays.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Since Armian lost the throne, they had refused to host it, leaving six venues instead of seven.

Among Pellenberg’s sponsored individuals were also professors from the Academy.

Some aimed to present at the congress.

‘…I should visit the professor.’

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

With time to spare, Fernan got ready and headed to the professors’ pavilion.

“The professor isn’t receiving students right now.”

“I would like to see Professor Rosalia.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

The assistant returned five minutes later.

“Ah… one moment.”

“I’m not here as a student.”

Fernan discreetly slid a plaque forward—the official sponsor badge of the Academy.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Rosalia was buried in mountains of documents, handling errands.

“The professor asks you to wait half an hour.”

“I’ll wait inside.”

Fernan entered the office.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

He decided not to interrupt her and sat on the guest sofa, preparing himself a coffee.

She was so focused that she didn’t even notice Fernan’s presence.

Only the turning of pages and the scratch of a pen filled the silence.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

A breeze came in through the slightly open window, lifting papers that she gathered with an annoyed gesture.

“Here.”

She brought a black cigarette to her lips but had no fire.

Time passed quickly.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Her previously dull eyes regained clarity.

Rosalia accepted it naturally, exhaling smoke.

Fernan lit a small flame on his finger.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“A while ago.”

“Fernan? auction When did you arrive?”

As she stretched, she finally noticed him.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Today I’m not a student. alpha I came as a sponsor.”

At the word sponsor, she took a deeper puff.

“And your classes? antenna As far as I know, you had class today.”

“I thought I said I wasn’t receiving students.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Did you come to pressure me? attic To see if I have results?”

“I canceled.”

Rosalia let out an ironic laugh, but didn’t scold him further.

“How shameless, saying that in front of a professor.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fernan smiled, then changed the subject.

“I hope your results live up to that anticipation.”

“Just to check in. apron There are two weeks left until the congress.”

“How could I forget? alien I’ve been looking forward to it every day.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“If you put in a request, I’ll take care of the supply. athlete But don’t overdo it. canvas It doesn’t have major side effects, but it’s still a stimulant, and excess is never good.”

“It’s not bad. acoustic A single puff clears the mind. abandon Maybe because it’s a Pellenberg product. altitude Either way, I need more.”

“I see you’re making good use of the tobacco.”

“Stop pretending you care.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Rosalia rose from her seat.

“I’m not pretending, but fine.”

“Follow me.”

“Where are we going?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Impressive.”

“Is it finished?”

“In the final phase. athlete It’ll be reviewed and fully ready before the Continental Academic Congress.”

“Isn’t it obvious? riddle The sponsor wants to see the research results.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

He had estimated a minimum of ten. absorb No matter how much of a genius she was, she couldn’t have done it without sacrificing body and soul.

Fernan expressed genuine admiration.

He knew how difficult her research topic was, and even though he had sponsored her, he never thought she could complete it in just five years.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

The magic tobacco, made at Rosalia’s request, had certainly played its part.

In fact, Rosalia’s lab was among the top five largest in the entire Academy, the result of her talent, connections, and Pellenberg backing.

It was large and spacious.

Fernan followed her to her lab.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“The ice crystal has grown.”

Upon entering, Fernan felt a chill.

“Yes, it’s grown more.”

In the center of the lab stood a huge ice orb about five meters in diameter.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Seeing her enter with Fernan, the assistants greeted her.

“Professor!”

Around it, several assistants worked silently.

Its surface was covered in intricate runes and magic circles, leaving no space untouched.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“He’s here as a sponsor.”

“Professor, you’ve come. adopt And you too, Fernan.”

Most only nodded before returning to work, but one of them ran toward them.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

The assistant nodded.

“So today he’s here as a sponsor.”

“I’m Aaron Frein, assistant to Professor Rosalia. arch It’s an honor to meet you, sir sponsor.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“It’s the least I can do for a sponsor.”

Rosalia spoke without looking at them.

“Fernan. legend Always so formal.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“He wants to see the results. abandon Explain it to him.”

“You won’t do it yourself?”

Saying that, she disappeared without turning back.

“I’m behind on work.”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

***

“This way, please.”

“Thank you.”

Aaron led Fernan.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Take care.”

An hour later, Fernan left after hearing the full explanation.

Aaron saw him off with a bow, and only after making sure he was gone did his expression change.

“So it was true that the sponsorship was from the Pellenbergs and not the Vienderks?”

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

Rosalia Vienderk and Fernan Pellenberg.

“What an interesting pair…”

He had heard that before, but always thought it was a ridiculous rumor. anchor Why would someone from the Vienderk line need support from the Pellenbergs?

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

“One and the other. beacon This will be fun. adopt The academic congress is going to be something.”

Sponsored professor and sponsor student.

Vienderk and Pellenberg.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

He had no idea what had just happened.

Aaron smiled and returned to the lab.

He was convinced it would be the most controversial congress of all time.

Content of A Cadet Becomes a Prophet?! - Chapter 96 published by TrungTu Reads.

A sudden, sharp pain had struck him without warning.

Fernan, who had just left, collapsed onto a bench, clutching his head.

“…Ugh.”
