The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 1038

Chapter 1038: Be Careful

Not that he hadn’t expected something along the lines of this.

He was hoping it wouldn’t come to that point, but it was precisely why he encouraged his wife to get dressed for the night.

Not only so he wouldn’t get a stomach ache by sleeping like that, but also so they would be prepared for anything.

If not the people close to them, maybe some lunatic from elsewhere would attempt something as stupid as a suicide mission. Who knows?

At this point, he firmly believed that everything was possible. After all, wasn’t he a living proof of that?

Like right now. He was staring at a group of faces no one would ever want to encounter in the dead of night.

The Prince who had somehow accepted his fate, simply pursed his lips, doing his best not to die of embarrassment on the spot before weakly offering, "A massage... He was giving me a back massage..."

And it really was just that. At least ideally.

When it came down to it, Xavier had been the one to suggest it in the first place.

Since his wife had been so determined to learn about seduction, the Prince could only fall back on what had originally bridged their physical contact. It was simple. Familiar. And allegedly safer.

More importantly... Luca had seemed very interested.

Maybe a little too interested, in fact.

His eyes had sparkled the moment Xavier mentioned it.

In hindsight, that should’ve been his warning.

At the very least, he could’ve prepared himself for this heartfelt—yet slightly dangerous—display of affection. Perhaps with a few pain relievers on standby.

But looking at the crowd currently sprawled across the floor, it seemed that was no longer the main concern.

Duke Leander cleared his throat, straightening slightly as if presenting a formal case.

"W-we heard disturbing sounds," he began, voice firm despite the situation. "And when someone yelped, we were concerned for safety!"

He said it like a man justifying a lawful intervention. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

And for some reason Xavier couldn’t even retort because he feared that he might have actually sounded a little too distressed at that time.

Ahem.

But to everyone’s surprise, Luca immediately bowed.

"Oh no! I’m so sorry for waking everyone up!" he said earnestly. "I-I didn’t control my strength properly and pressed harder than I should’ve!"

There was no hesitation. Just a pure, genuine apology.

For a moment, it looked like the world had dimmed around him, and it was enough to make everyone uneasy.

While others, after their own bouts of personal recalibration, had gained better control over their abilities after drinking the concoction made from the Queen of the Night, Luca’s case was... quite different.

The out-of-body experience aside, he hadn’t gone through the same drastic adaptation period. Instead, there were moments when familiar actions would suddenly carry far more force or spiritual energy than expected.

It didn’t start that way, but whenever he got too excited, he would end up... overcharged.

And unfortunately, he had been just a little too enthusiastic upon realizing one of his dreams.

Before anyone could react, Luca raised his hand again—

Several people visibly flinched.

"!"

But this time, his palm landed gently against Xavier’s back.

A collective breath was released.
