The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 1083

Chapter 1083: The Beginner Beekeeper

"This is what we really need to wear?" Kyle verified, looking down at the bulky beekeeping ensemble covering him from head to toe.

Though honestly, there was probably no point in asking anymore, considering he was already fully dressed in the thing, but even so, he still couldn’t shake the feeling that they looked utterly ridiculous.

They were people who routinely wore advanced combat suits, military-grade exploration gear, and equipment designed to survive outright hostile environments without sacrificing mobility. But now?

Not only did he feel like a cultist about to embark on something insane, but he even looked the part.

"Yeah," Luca answered while flipping through the physical manual in his hands.

Unlike the others, the future beekeeper looked perfectly content bundled inside the stark white suit, almost vibrating with excitement despite resembling an overprotected marshmallow.

"It’s definitely bulkier than the exploration suits, which would probably protect us just fine," Luca admitted. "But I think it’s better to wear the recommended gear since we don’t know how those suits might smell to the bees."

The golden-eyed cadet looked up from the book with such firm determination that Kyle instinctively felt there had to be a very good explanation behind all of this.

"The manual says they’re sensitive to scent. It even mentions that we shouldn’t wash the suits with strong chemicals because the bees might get agitated."

At the mention of such an extremely important detail, Jax unexpectedly perked up.

Everyone immediately stared.

Because the redhead looked genuinely invested.

"So...does that mean we all need to read the manual before handling the bees?" he asked seriously.

The blonde nearby practically suffered spiritual damage.

Ollie stared at Jax in complete disbelief because the man had voluntarily offered to read.

Read.

On purpose.

Unfortunately for the mop, his good brother didn’t even seem shocked. Instead, he looked delighted.

"Well, about that..." Luca scratched awkwardly at the sleeve of his suit, suddenly looking a bit embarrassed. "It’d honestly be good for everyone to read it. But I don’t think that’ll really be possible because, like Xavier pointed out earlier..."

He coughed lightly.

"This is written in Tessarian."

"..."

"Oh."

Jax looked visibly disappointed for approximately two seconds before recovering surprisingly quickly.

"Then what if you just translate the important parts?" he suggested.

Luca, who had almost gotten distracted earlier by several deeply concerning thoughts regarding why the Trove somehow carried Tessarian beekeeping manuals, immediately brightened again.

Thankfully, he didn’t have enough free time right now to spiral over that particular issue. There were currently many more urgent matters.

Like bees.

The important preparations needed to receive said bees.

And Jax, who made Luca absurdly happy because he seemed excited to learn about beekeeping with him, who was also a newbie.

"Of course!" he answered immediately with a wide grin.

With such a show of determination, the three suspiciously excited cadets continued bonding over bees they technically hadn’t even met yet.

Meanwhile, Elder Pao Xi, the Elder volunteer for this operation, silently observed the group.

Beside him stood Kyle and Xavier, who had somehow become the automatic and apparently lifetime chaperones of this increasingly questionable expedition.

And the three of them could only watch the jumpy group in silence.

"..."

Just moments before their trek—done manually rather than through teleportation so they could properly inspect the surroundings—toward the environment they were eyeing for the bees, the large beach gathering temporarily split apart.

After all, they only had six complimentary beekeeping suits.

And unfortunately, for the devastated children—and a number of individuals who were allegedly only children at heart—that number apparently wasn’t enough to accommodate an entire overly excited audience.

The younger ones immediately insisted they could simply stand very, very far away and watch quietly. Surprisingly, this time, Luca could not be swayed at all.
