The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 742

Chapter 742: Selflessness, Flexibility, and Spinach

A disaster, really.

Because if anyone were to ask the scandalized little wife right now—whose eyes were nearly falling out of their sockets—then they would’ve heard him screeching about disasters and tragedies.

All because of an unfortunate discovery.

Oysters, lobsters, crabs, and fatty fish...

Nuts, berries, cherries, apples, avocados, grapes, and watermelon...

And worse, even hot peppers?!

"A-all of these? Elders... are you saying that all of these are good for virility?" Luca gawked as he tried confirming with them once again.

"Well, ideally yes, there’s also broccoli, asparagus, beets, carrots, and oh, spinach!"

"SPINACH?! Elder Wei, are you saying even spinach is a problem?!" Luca asked as if he were ready to cry.

The elders looked at one another, and then back at the bed, where the poor prince lay, buried in pillows like he’d fought for his life.

Ah, such a tragic concession for their Young Lord who had always prioritized everyone else’s welfare!

Therefore, they could somehow understand why Luca was facing such a dilemma, after all, that Spinach Frittata had been to die for, so to come to the conclusion that he may have to avoid eating that and more would definitely be devastating.

"Lord Luca, perhaps you can skip just a few of the items. Maybe have the consolation of eating spinach frittata once a week," said Elder Feng in the most comforting way he could muster. At times like this, even he was sensitive enough to understand how tragic this news must be for such a vigorous young man who loved to eat.

Elder Shen added kindly, "Or we could plant other fruits you can safely eat. It must be difficult for someone as... energetic as you to avoid all of these."

It was an attempt at consolation, but instead of succeeding, the elders wondered strangely about his next words.

Luca’s lower lip quivered. "There’s so m-many... I-if so, then is that why he’s like that?!"

The elders stiffened.

Oh no! Maybe their Lord had no idea and ended up similarly surprised by his own prowess!

But then the little chipmunk, whose imaginary tail flopped down, suddenly said, "But elders, how come you’re telling me to avoid all of those?! Shouldn’t it be my husband who should be avoiding all of them?!"

Gasp!

Elder Pao Xi placed a shocked hand over his mouth. "Avoid them, Lord Luca? Never! He absolutely must have all of them!"

"!"

The accidental triplets started nodding rapidly.

"Of course, it’s because he needs them! How could Lord Xavier possibly last until the end without them?!"

"Exactly! Not making it all the way definitely calls for an intervention!" chimed in another elder with theatrical worry.

Elder Wei delivered the final, crushing blow: "If anything, the problem with his back should be dealt with! So, of course, by all accounts, Lord Xavier must definitely need all of those things!"

But surprisingly, that same back—having survived colossal monsters, a rampage, and even a bedroom session—was now taking damage just from this conversation.

Maybe it was a blessing that they were all too absorbed in their crisis to notice the faint tremor of the bed—where the accidental eavesdropper was doing his absolute best not to cough up blood after being struck by every single stray bullet of their conversation.

But if he could peer into their minds he would understand just why they were so preoccupied.

The elders who at times apparently shared one brain cell, came to the conclusion that if this couple enjoyed overwhelming dominance then who were they to judge? 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

In the end the elders silently and collectively decided that they would just take on the duty to support this robust, yet slightly imbalanced coupling while giving Xavier credit for being a truly dedicated partner and cultivator.

After all, it’s always been part of dual cultivation. Selflessness and flexibility. Literally and figuratively.

"Lord Luca, there should be herbs aside from the stamina pills..."

The conversation had already reached fever pitch as they began debating dosage and frequency—until a deep, very familiar voice cut through the air.

"Ah," Xavier said coolly, "so those would be effective?"

The elders froze.

Luca froze.

Even the air seemed to freeze.

Xavier, now very much awake and smiling too much from the bed, looked like a man one bad word away from popping a nerve.

His tone was polite. Too polite. The kind of polite that muttered curses to generations of family members.

But the elders, bless their souls, began sweating for an absolutely different reason.

Luca, however, only gasped in relief. "Xavier! You’re awake!"

Before the prince could say another word, the little guide had flung himself forward, hugging him tightly. The elders all jolted at once, horrified.

"Careful! His back!" Elder Wei yelped.
