The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79: New Strategy

Xavier reached out, wanting to be enveloped by this warmth and hoping to thaw out his entire being.

His sea of consciousness was especially greedy, but his body was coming in as a close second.

His hands unconsciously searched for his reprieve when he felt the warmth disappear. Xavier was unsure of what it was but felt like he would die without it.

Meanwhile, Luca had to breathe, as maintaining his position in front of Xavier wasn’t exactly comfortable.

He also stopped as D-29 expressed doubts that Luca’s actions did not match the photos in the book, which were mainly covered in decorative hearts.

D-29 followed Luca’s instructions to a tee.

The little system bought the simplest one, which just so happened to be a children’s book. While the book discussed kissing and physical contact, the photos were all covered with decorative hearts.

But it was definitely the simplest and easiest to digest.

"Host, in the interstellar dramas, they don’t kiss like that. They normally do CPR." D-29 remembered all the drama it had seen while waiting on its Host and was confident about this observation.

"CPR? Was he dying already?" Luca immediately checked Xavier’s breathing and sighed after realizing he was still alive.

"Yes, Host. None of the photos here match what you did, but after comparison, it seems like this is closer to CPR minus the chest compression. Maybe you need to breathe energy into him?"

Now, CPR was something that Luca knew of because it was a mandatory commercial played by all the media channels, especially after the successive dungeon breaks.

Okay, without the compressions, then.

Xavier’s face was pale, and Luca just decided to try. Luca’s hands were trembling, but he managed to tilt Xavier’s head back before pressing his mouth against his.

It was supposed to be clinical, a life-saving effort. But their lips brushing against each other created a draw so undeniable they ended up stuck to each other.

Luca wasn’t sure if CPRs involved electric currents, but his chest rose sharply as he gasped in surprise. In his shock, he decided to pull away, only for the back of his neck to be gripped, and the mouth-to-mouth was deepened.

Xavier’s instincts came alive when Luca made contact. The warmth came in droves, soothing his fried pathways and his raging consciousness. And so he clutched on tightly, wanting more of this warmth and inner peace.

Luca’s face and body were flushed.

Xavier held him in place, allowing for a much deeper connection. He was caught off-guard, thinking that people needed to take in air to give to the other person. But he was unable to detach from Xavier.

Luca was practically gripping Xavier’s hair by now. He felt himself sinking into him, his guiding energy flowing way faster than ever.

This time, Luca didn’t try to think. He was going with his instincts, as it would’ve been impossible even if he tried.

While Luca radiated warmth, Xavier felt like a refreshing coolant, especially now that Luca’s body felt very heated. This feeling was very comfortable and relieving, so he tried to rub up against him again.

Guiding was so much easier. What felt like an endless void suddenly felt doable, and the raging winds that kept dispersing his efforts quieted down. Luca was able to pull on the remaining corruption like this.

It took a while, but it probably felt like seconds for these people. Xavier was instinctively tugging on Luca’s energy now, and the two would’ve been stuck in this cycle of energy rotation if not for the sudden clattering of bones.

*CLANG! CLACK!*

That made them jump. Even Xavier, who had been on autopilot, was jolted awake. It was his training as a soldier, immediately waking once a threat was felt. His head still throbbed, but that was not because of his spiritual powers but because someone committed a crime against the crown.
