The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114: Business Mindset

Xaver decided to lug Luca off to ask about his reasons.

It was still difficult for him to understand this little guy’s thoughts, but by now, he was sure that his little actions were typically related to much bigger things.

Xavier couldn’t help but wonder what it was this time, but when he sat Luca down, he was just staring at him with a mouth shut as tight as possible.

Luca didn’t know how to reason with Xavier and decided to go with a staring competition.

While he had shared more than he ever expected, he still wasn’t sure how the mountain giant would react to his little quirk.

Quirks, actually.

There’s more from where it came from, but Luca was afraid he’d eventually push his new buddies to the limit.

Xavier noticed his hesitance and couldn’t really force him because even he kept secrets that would definitely affect the little Chipmunk.

However, this was his personal duty, and in the worst-case scenario, he could abdicate in favor of his little sister.

But that was a problem for another time. Right now, the problem was this guy who wanted to come to the port with them.

"I understand your hesitance, and I’m not forcing you to tell me all about it. But you have to understand that I can’t just do it without a valid reason. You’re going to have to work with me here."

While he could, on his authority, drag someone over, that was going to blow his cover for those who weren’t in the know. And he couldn’t do that unless there was a compelling reason.

Well, Luca definitely had a justifiable cause; he just didn’t know how to explain it.

"I... I’m hoping to clean them up for you. I am an excellent cleaner." said Luca hesitantly.

That was really the gist of it, but of course, Xavier’s eyes narrowed at his vague words.

He planned to ask for clarification when the Chipmunk decided to do it for him.

"Just like I cleaned you up, I think I could help with the port clean up."

Eh???

He had an inkling and was sure something was up with this guy’s movements, but Xavier didn’t expect the shorty to come clean about it.

As clean as he could right now, anyway.

He didn’t clarify that, technically, the dungeon would clean up the corruption this time around, but the space was integrated with him anyway, so semantics.

Xavier had to collect his scattered thoughts and realized that this somehow felt familiar. But it wouldn’t be until he saw it in person that Xavier would be able to connect the little Chipmunk to the market incident.

It wasn’t surprising because what Luca was about to do would really be beyond people’s imagination.

Xavier decided to sneak the little Chipmunk in.

He mused that it was better this way in case something groundbreaking happened again.

If anything, Xavier hoped that Luca would be able to deal with the least contaminated items so that they could salvage some.

He figured that it took some time for Luca to fix him up, so it may take the little Chipmunk several rounds before he could ’clean’ some of the materials.

But things didn’t go as expected.

Luca had to squeeze in again with Xavier, this time in a manual mecha, which was rather cramped.

The port had been cryogenically frozen to hold off the contamination for as long as possible while they attempted to salvage some of the items.

D-29 now agrees with its Host that this would cost too much! Stealing would really be the best solution!

On the other hand, Sid felt melancholic throughout the conversation as the guardian mecha wondered how many people would suffer significant financial losses.

But the tremendous financial losses didn’t come. Instead, Xavier was treated to what was probably the century’s greatest miracle.

However, said greatest miracle was actually in a different headspace that should probably remain private forever.

The little money grubber didn’t feel so little after seeing the frozen port.

KA-CHING!

KA-CHING!

There was so much CP just waiting to be harvested, and Luca felt like he was in corruption heaven!
