The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103: Still a Cafeteria?

Kyle was trying his damned best to remember what was in that ancient training manual about bloodline abilities. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

But his concentration was shot because it was more important to stop Xavier before these ice shards crawled onto the surface of the table for everyone to see.

"Captain," He called quietly, trying not to draw attention to their table but to no avail.

Xavier didn’t respond.

Kyle actually debated on throwing his spoon at him as his anxiety mounted over the thin layer of frost that slowly started spreading.

"Captain!" He tried again, but this time, Luca noticed what he was doing and tried to help him out.

"Psst."

"Psst."

When that didn’t work, he tugged on him and said, "Xavier, Kyle has been calling you."

Then Luca noticed how cold Xavier was. He was not cold like a stoic person but like an actual iceberg.

Didn’t he have Spatial abilities? How come he’s manifesting elemental abilities right now?! Luca was surprised about this because so far, he’s only seen the Orc Princess wield an elemental ability.

He was not new to such abilities because this was how Espers generally were; the higher the ranks, the more abilities they had in their arsenal. But when he searched about them before, nothing even remotely similar came up.

Were there people like the Awakened over here? Did they just not know, or was it just Xavier?!

He was initially unsure but was surprised to hear D-29’s exclamations! "Host, this was on the book! There was a drawing of a little man who was suddenly on fire and needed to be calmed down!"

"How do we calm him down?" Luca asked, surprised that a Guiding book really had something similar!

"I’m not sure, Host, because the next drawing was the same little man on a stretcher?" D-29 was trying its best, but the book was really just a picture book with very minimal explanation.

But, of course, that was expected.

The book was for very young children, after all.

So, in reality, the little system has been trying to do an interpretation of drawings by cross-referencing them with the information it learned from Luca’s terminal and Sid’s bios.

It just wasn’t helping as much because several of the book’s illustrations used different small animals doing things that animals shouldn’t be able to do, like talking in speech bubbles.

Of course, as a system, D-29 was initially programmed to process information literally and kept getting stumped by all the small animals!

It was a battle of wits, and D-29 was struggling.

"Stretcher? Does he need to go to the hospital?!" Luca really didn’t like hospitals or labs because they would often knock him out, but maybe that was how everyone was treated.

Luca had no memory of his awakening because it happened right as Specimen 401 woke up with a consciousness. And Guides don’t seem to have the same destructive awakening as Espers usually do.

But his memory really only had people rejoicing at collapsing buildings while praising the birth of another Esper.

That was what the TV reports would show, and it wasn’t something the non-awakened discussed at school.

In fact, during his very short stint as a student, their subjects strayed away from anything about the awakened because it felt like a mockery to those who didn’t awaken with any special powers. That was why he was treated like a pariah.

All he knew was the required protocols when dealing with anyone suspected of awakening.

So, what exactly did the emergency response team do to the awakened? Luca tried recalling more information but to no avail.

And he’s been trying to keep it together, but that Princess just won’t shut up about her duties, responsibilities, and the need to marry the vendor—his vendor.

Was Xavier reverse-guiding?!
