The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 606

Chapter 606: The Night to Remember

It was no wonder why one Imperial Crown Prince and his equally confused wife were surprised to see even more deposits.

"!!!"

"Xavier! Why did you transfer money again?! Is something wrong?" Luca asked, trembling as soon as he saw their account.

In reality, Xavier had only just transferred it over since he had received the message moments ago.

"No, no. Nothing is wrong. It is just that my parents seem to be very thankful. They said they enjoyed it so much but hoped you did not suffer losses just to send them something."

He said it calmly, but the actual message had been more of a frantic rave laced with panic, asking whether the beloved was all right after sending something so precious.

It worried the prince at first, but then again, anything his wife made or gave was automatically considered a treasure. After realizing this, he supposed he should not be surprised at all.

"So, in the end, what did you send them?"

Luca fidgeted, his cheeks faintly pink as he finally confessed, "I... ended up sending them wine and food. The elders helped me choose what was appropriate."

"Oh." Xavier’s brows lifted, his tone both curious and faintly amused. "Wine and food? There’s actually wine now?"

"Yes..." Luca looked down, his fingers tugging at his sleeve.

"And why did you agree to send that?" Xavier asked, his voice calm, deep with the huskiness of morning, the sound brushing against Luca’s ears like velvet.

The shy chipmunk shifted uncomfortably, then raised his gaze with surprising steadfastness. "Because... when I told the elders about love languages, they suggested giving something that melded both. Something like an experience." His voice was small but filled with hope, as though he fully believed in the reasoning.

Amusement sparkled in Xavier’s azure eyes. "So, then, what was this experience you gave them?"

Luca, face red and ears trembling, straightened with all the conviction he could muster. "A date!" he declared, as though he were naming a great invention.

Xavier blinked once, his lips twitching. "A date?"

Luca nodded earnestly, fists clenching at his sides to show his resolve. "Yes! The elders said that husbands and wives could enjoy a good dinner date with wine and food. Not only would they enjoy something tangible, but they would spend time together and be happy together!" His golden eyes shone with determination as he said it, completely serious.

For a heartbeat, Xavier held still. Then a low chuckle escaped him, rumbling from his chest before he could stop it.

Luca blinked up at him, confused. "...What?"

The Crown Prince reached over, brushing a lock of white hair behind his ear as he smiled down at his little wife with a look only Luca could ever receive. "No wonder they are especially thankful. It seems it really was the perfect gift."

The Imperial Prince, who looked like a lounging model even when sitting, straightened upright and leaned closer. Then he bent down to press a kiss against Luca’s forehead.

Luca’s entire body jolted. Heat crept up his neck, threatening to make him explode.

It was ironic.

They had already done far more intimate, even shameless, things together, yet something like this—just a kiss on the forehead—made his heart feel like it would burst.

"W-what’s the matter?" Luca stammered, still red in the face. He searched Xavier’s expression, but the prince only smiled and whispered, "Thank you for existing. And thank you for your sincerity."

Then Xavier gently lifted Luca’s hand and pressed a soft kiss to the back of it.

Luca overheated further. "N-no! I did not do anything! I only wanted to return their sincerity!"

"That is fine. I understand." Xavier’s voice lowered. "Even if it was unintentional, I hope you do not mind that I think of it as you thinking of me..."

Luca blinked, processing the words. Then he caught the wistful expression on Xavier’s face. His chest tightened. "Wait! No! O-obviously it was for you too! I-I wanted to be accepted by them!"

"You do?" Xavier’s face lowered to meet his. Luca’s eyes trembled with embarrassment.

"O-of course I do!"

"Really...? Why?"

Luca’s ears burned, his neck flushed like a ripe tomato, but he managed to puff out, "Because... because you’re my husband!"

The words left him trembling so badly he nearly fainted when Xavier’s grin spread wider.

"I am. And I am very fortunate to have the loveliest wife." Xavier’s voice deepened as he leaned closer.

By the time he whispered again, Luca was already pinned beneath him, caught between Xavier’s arms. The prince’s white hair draped around them like a silken curtain, closing them off from the world.

Xavier’s lips pressed softly against Luca’s before he breathed, "You really are my happiness..."

Luca’s mind went blank.
