The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 1063

Chapter 1063: An Unintentional Masterpiece

"Brother Chipmunk!" Princess Nina announced proudly. "Today, I’m going to try to make the promised snowman. And I’m also going to measure it!"

It would’ve been a powerful declaration had she not been sitting comfortably on Luca’s lap, looking like a small critter preparing to take a nap while adorably taking advantage of his naturally warm body temperature from his fire affinity.

How cute.

Then, with complete seriousness, she stretched her hands out and narrowed her eyes at him like a professional artist studying a masterpiece.

The golden-eyed cadet blinked in surprise.

"What’s wrong?"

The little Princess explained earnestly, "I want to make a snowman that looks like Brother Chipmunk, so I need to remember the details properly before I make the snow!"

"What? Me?"

"Of course!" she said immediately. "Because it has to be the best-looking person! And because I promised earlier! And if I were to make one that my brother would like, then it could only be you!"

The warmer was left speechless.

After that momentary shock, Luca tried arguing that he was definitely not the best-looking person around, but Nina stubbornly refused to agree.

In the eyes of the little girl, there was no way she wasn’t right!

Eventually, he gave up with a helpless smile and ruffled her soft hair.

Victorious, the little Princess happily resumed making snow fall into the bucket before her.

Luca watched the delicate flakes drift downward.

But gradually, his attention wandered.

His gaze shifted toward the other side of the testing grounds, where Xavier was still practicing with Duchess Amelia.

The Duke had offered (practically insisted) to participate earlier, but the Duchess refused vehemently despite his tears.

According to her, she planned to study fire only after getting better control over her ability because she didn’t want to accidentally burn things down.

Yes, she might have tried earlier, but even then, it had only felt acceptable under heavy supervision. That wasn’t something she wanted to burden others with when they also needed time to practice.

In the end, it was Xavier—who not only had access to two abilities but was also skilled enough to create temporary blades without needing essence—who offered to stay behind and assist her instead.

And that was how Luca ended up temporarily separated from his hard-working husband. Still, the golden-eyed wife thought it was a good thing, especially since Xavier seemed to be getting along well with his family.

It was just that, while serving as a living heater, the little fox could not help but think that if the Princess truly wanted the best-looking person as inspiration, then shouldn’t it be his husband instead?

To the lovestruck Luca, Xavier was unquestionably the most handsome person in existence.

His golden eyes even sparkled unconsciously as he stared.

That nose.

That jawline.

Even the way Xavier’s lips moved while speaking looked unfairly attractive.

Don’t even get him started about those eyes.

Actually—everything! As someone who had seen it all, he was convinced that every single thing about his husband was simply handsome!

And so Luca found himself thinking that if anyone deserved to become the inspiration for the perfect snowman—

Or better yet, an ice sculpture—

Then it absolutely had to be his husband.

He sighed dreamily and tilted his head without realizing it.

Then suddenly—

Gasp!

Luca jolted out of his stupor.

At first, he did not know where the sound came from because he’d been terribly out of it.

Then he realized it had come from Nina.

"Nina! What’s wrong?!" Luca immediately panicked and began inspecting her in alarm. He quickly checked her hands, counted her fingers, and looked over her limbs while apologizing for spacing out.

But the little Princess hurriedly shook her head.

"No, Brother Chipmunk, I’m fine! But look!"

Wide-eyed and stunned, she pointed ahead.

Luca, concerned because of her expression, followed her gaze past the bucket she had been using.

And froze.

Standing there was something tall.

Frozen.

Luca blinked slowly before realizing what it was.

An ice sculpture.

But not just any sculpture, either.

Well, it looked almost exactly like Xavier when he created an ice blade earlier. If it spoke or moved even just a little, it could probably be mistaken for him.

"!!!"

The golden-eyed cadet gasped and turned toward the little girl in disbelief.

"Nina! Did you make that?!"

He looked utterly amazed, ready to shower the little girl with immense praise.

But Princess Nina immediately shook her head.

"Oh no! No, Brother!" She practically crossed her arms in a giant X while shaking her head intensely.

"But you certainly did." She emphasized while looking straight at him.

Ahem.

It was because he suddenly realized that Xavier, at least the sculpted version, had been topless. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

They immediately demanded to know exactly what Luca had been thinking about when he created the sculpture.

Oh hell no.
