The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30: Popular Destination

While someone was contemplating ways to run away, several groups were inching towards the Nova Base Station.

One was a jilted lover, another was an expectant battleship, and the last one was an overzealous butler.

Among these, only one group was full of joy and anticipation.

Butler Gary almost tripped trying to rush over to Duke Leander's quarters after his phone call with the Academy's Staff.

It was very unlike him, but he knew that no one would mind the moment they learned the truth. In fact, they might think he was being too negligent for not teleporting.

Not that it was impossible, just costly. But no one in this household should be thinking about costs, especially not with the news he had with him.

His knocking was hurried and likely unbecoming of a professional butler, but that was not the most pressing issue.

"Enter."

The door opened to reveal a dimly lit room. It's been this way for a while now, and even now, Butler Gary felt a pang of sadness at the Duke's state.

But maybe... Just maybe this would help.

"What's the matter? You were rushing." Asked the duke, his hoarse voice a far cry from his famous battle cries.

"Your Grace, I've got unexpected news!"

"Hm?"

"It's Lord Luca!"

"He's recovered!" Butler Gary was brimming with energy, and he was vibrating in place.

And for what it was worth, Duke Leander's head whipped towards the Butler's direction.

"What?!"

*Cough! Cough!*

The Duke's throat suddenly strained from wanting to speak and shout, causing him to enter a fit of coughing.

Butler Gary hurried over to assist the patient, who kept wanting to sit up. _{ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com}

"Your Grace, just please lie down. It would be bad if you over-exert yourself! Especially now!"

"Then you better explain yourself!"

Realizing that to see is to believe, the loyal butler showed the video before explaining what had just happened.

After all, even he thought of the worst. Everything else was possible, and this one was the only one he didn't consider.

The weakened Duke watched a young man that was so familiar yet foreign to him.

It had been so long since he had seen life in the eyes of his only son, and the Duke couldn't help but feel his eyes stinging.

"This...How is this possible?! Are you sure about this?"

"I got this after calling the Academy, Your Grace. Initially, I attributed the delayed return to the space storm, only to discover that something like this happened."

"According to the staff, Lord Luca was actually hospitalized before the assessment but managed to rank 4th place."

As expected! I was right! Once the Duke finds out, he'd want to do the same thing! Butler Gary re-affirmed his knowledge of the Duke's personality. There was nothing he wouldn't do for his only son.
