The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] Chapter 356: Plantation

There were no lengthy contracts, not even a blood pact. Instead, what they faced was a tiny outstretched pinky.

The couple blinked at this until their son practically pushed them towards it. Not that it was possible, but the effort showed.

"Will this be enough?" questioned the marquis, who was trying to figure out how this would be able to hold.

But when their pinkies lit up of sorts, he figured there was sothing ancient about it, and suddenly he understood that these people weren’t just dealing with paper contracts.

It was the sa for his wife, although after seeing that flash of light, the careful mother felt better about the security. No wonder their son couldn’t open his mouth.

Good.

Very good.

Because with how their son had been wiggling in his seat, they would need sothing stronger than duct tape to keep him from blurting anything.

But just as they thought they’d be able to start conversing there. Everyone in that small office suddenly got transported elsewhere, and when the newly added couple ca to, they were standing in so grassland while being bombed by an even stronger whiff of spiritual energy.

If they were able to hold on earlier, it was nearly impossible now as the two were almost to their knees with how sudden this was.

"Oh no! My Lord, My Lady! I’m sorry, maybe I should have warned you before doing that!" Apologized Luca, who panicked after realizing that he might have been too hasty to transfer to a more secure place.

"No...no. There’s no need to apologize, we were just surprised, my dear." Responded Marquise Julienne as she tried standing back up with the assistance of her husband.

For soone who could rarely be brought down to her knees by weapons or attacks, she had to admit that they had no training for sothing like this.

No wonder their Ollie looked like that when he ca back!

He might have been scared shitless but he sure as hell did not look like he had been through the trials of life.

But of course, who would look withered when sothing like this existed?

"Now, are we allowed to know where we are?"

Marquis Osmond looked around. For a mont, he thought they were suddenly transported into the heart of the daycare, but the energy concentration alone should be an indicator that they were sowhere else.

"Pop! We’re inside Luca’s Dungeon Space!" Grinned Ollie, who was rubbing his face against his good brother’s head.

"Aweso, right?!"

The glimr in Ollie’s eyes was evident, but it was understandable, for before them was vegetation that they’d never seen the likes of.

Plants and what looked like trees surrounded them, as if corruption had never been an issue. And for so reason, it felt like the air alone was enough to survive on.

But apparently, these kids weren’t just going for survival; they were brought here to see a surprise that even caught their own son off guard.

Luca asked everyone if they wanted to co with him to see sothing, and as they walked, Ollie finally took the chance to answer his parents’ questions:

"In truth, ti here moves three tis faster than outside, and it’s so packed with spiritual energy that even plants and creatures thrive better here."

He sounded so casual when saying that when everyone knew just how ground-breaking that was.

The actual space alone was sothing, and to say that ti moves three tis faster here? Talk about productivity!

Marquis Osmond then recalled sothing, eyes narrowing thoughtfully. "The Star Mall fruit vendor—was that connected to this?"

Luca sheepishly nodded. "Yes, Lord Osmond, I started it, but now many of us are involved too."

"And those auction goods, I’m guessing they were from here as well?" Marquise Julienne asked carefully.

Luca and Ollie nodded together. Ollie enthusiastically pointed to Jax and Kyle. "They helped prepare the banana chips!"

The Marquis gave Ollie a worried look. "And you, son? You weren’t just the taste tester, were you?"

"WHA—POP!"

Luca quickly stepped in to defend his now-mortified brother. "He helped a lot! Ollie managed the packaging, suggested holding the auction, and he’s been critical in maintaining our combination chas. He even played a key role in our latest survival situation."

But just as the couple was about to ask more, the group reached flat, cleared land filled with neat rows of newly planted saplings.

Ollie and Jax turned wide-eyed towards Luca, disbelief evident in their faces.

Luca grinned, proud yet bashful. "I finally managed to plant olive, cocoa, and coffea trees! Unfortunately, we could only plant half an acre each for cocoa and coffea due to limited CP."

In fact, it was so limited that Luca almost fainted when he saw how much it would cost!

One hectare of 200 olive trees costs 500,000 CP, while half a hectare of cacao trees, for 550 trees, costs 1,375,000 CP.

And for coffea arabica? 800 trees that only covered half a hectare already cost 2,000,000 CP.

Xavier had to assist Luca when he saw these staggering prices, and he honestly almost backed out if not for the prince graciously promising to get the CP back while reminding him that the sooner they could plant these, the sooner they could start growing.

It hurt because, unlike the manuals and the facilities, which would really have an instant and permanent effect, this would take a while to mature.

Thankfully, the elders did say that they could help encourage growth if they had access to more energy crystals, as trees were more challenging to coax.

So, now they could see a couple of the saplings growing faster than the others.

The Mylor couple exchanged curious glances. "What exactly are those?"

Well, Ollie wasn’t sure if they were referring to the bony elders or the saplings, so he decided to introduce both.

"These are our new saplings," Ollie started confidently, gesturing dramatically towards the neat rows. Then, turning to point enthusiastically at the amused elders standing nearby, he continued, "And those are our esteed Bony Elders—wise and helpful in all spiritual and farming matters!"

The Marquis blinked at the moving skeletons, then looked to Luca. "Ah, I see. Elders...saplings...quite the diverse collection you’ve gathered here."

Luca laughed shyly, "We’re trying our best, My Lord."

The parents couldn’t really say anything because they looked proud about having animated skeletons around.

But what would they know, right?

However, this would be a reminder to always visit and honor the dead, for clearly, they might return.

Beside them, Ollie launched into an exaggerated explanation of products he’d only heard about secondhand, convinced that if Luca said it would be good, it would undoubtedly be sensational.

The shy dungeon owner blushed as he interrupted gently, "I’ve prepared sothing special to taste later. It’s limited right now, but since it’s a special day, I got hold of so from the trove so that everyone could try it."

"What?! Really, brother?" asked the blonde, who almost tripped trying to confirm with Luca.

The couple exchanged amused yet impressed looks, finally understanding their son’s newfound determination and excitent.

"Son, if it’s already like this, why were you looking for those materials? Titaniumite and Plasmium, right?"

This whirlwind of a boy decided to co ho just to look for these, so what could they possibly need those for given all this?

A new can of worms, apparently.
