The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] - Chapter 778

Capítulo 778: Pride on the Parade Road

Surprisingly, it was a sentiment shared by so many netizens, yet in the crowd just by the parade path, one grandmother had her hands clasped together as she tried to contain her joy, gratitude, and pride.

But it became difficult the moment she focused and saw a figure flipping down before landing low and rising smoothly.

“!!!”

How could she not grip her son, who was beside her?

“It is him. It is Noah,” she said breathlessly, right as the smoke cleared to reveal a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

Ah. He had really come so far.

For before her was the same grandson she had raised since infancy. The same child who had grown up cynical and wary of the world. And yet, looking at him now with that relaxed expression and sense of belonging on his face as he walked with his head held high and his eyes bright with spark, how could a grandmother not feel overwhelmed?

It had been one fateful meeting, and yet from then on, their lives, especially Noah’s, had changed.

Being invited to come to the capital to watch a member of their family take the same stage and the same path as these people was something they, who had only been focused on survival, had never thought possible.

Of course she had hoped for such a thing for Noah, which was why she encouraged him to attend the Royal Military Academy even when they had to struggle to give him better opportunities. But the child had grown too wary and had long stopped entertaining the idea of dreams.

And yet, since joining a school guild, even when he was back home, Noah would wake up earlier than everyone with that determined look, as if he were going to do something life-changing that day.

He never talked much about what he had been doing at school. He only said that from now on everything would be okay.

He had been right. In truth, it was more than okay.

Then they received a letter of invitation, passes, and accommodations from Young Lord Luca Kyros for the expo, saying that Noah would be part of it and that it would be wonderful if they could come and watch.

And how thankful she was to witness this with her own eyes.

Her sentiment was something another family echoed.

But if the Emorys were emotional, the Belgraves were even deeper into it as people who had interacted with the guild directly.

Talen Belgrave stood next to his mother and his son Kael as they watched with great anticipation for the youngest child who had bloomed so much in recent months.

Catching Theo had been extremely difficult, but no one in their family mentioned it because the boy would return and leave with such a big smile on his face that they began to wonder if something strange was happening to the students of today.

Then again, with what they had seen before, it wouldn’t be much of a stretch to say that Theo was indeed experiencing something extremely unusual. And how fortunate they all were for the opportunity to be a part of something so life-changing.

Heck, Kael Belgrave didn’t even recognize the cadet who had just performed what should have been an impossible stunt for someone who used to stumble even when simply walking forward.

And yet, look at that!

There was simplicity in his landing. Nothing too fancy. Nothing outrageous. And yet it was still so much like Theo, who enjoyed being himself.

However, his family thought it was groundbreaking because they never imagined that their youngest would do something insane and in front of the whole Empire at that.

They were proud and extremely happy for him.

It was just that they didn’t realize the hushed popularity of the child until it was revealed that the Pharmacy department students had long squirreled away photos of Theo as their good luck charms.

As the youngest and only freshman member from the pharmacy department, Theo Belgrave had apparently been carrying the hopes and dreams of their entire division.

So much so that when later clips and photos of the parade were reposted, an unexpected clip of Theo pushing up his glasses as he walked with his members kept circulating everywhere.

But how could it not, when his simple movement was framed so well in the stream that he looked like he had already discovered the fountain of youth.

However, the strength behind their simple yet memorable moves was not the only thing highlighted by each member’s descent.

Because right at the end of the parade road, several groups were quickly realizing the oddity of this guild.

Individuality.

Unlike the rest, which showcased their homogeneity through perfectly coordinated formations, this guild highlighted the differences among its members, almost as if celebrating them.

Wordless glances were shared as guilds and delegation members tried to make sense of the existence of the guild called DG.

They were admittedly taken aback by all this.

Normally, the other races that dominated the Astral Cup finals never really thought much about the human guilds. Not because of particular reasons but because they were aware that without their machines they were particularly weak.

Who would need to invest so much time on them when they weren’t exactly considered a threat in the Astral Cup.

Oh, but they did know about guilds like the Silver Serpents who did manage to reach the finals. They just didn’t expect to encounter one more human guild that would deserve a second look.

However, that didn’t mean they were entirely clueless about DG when they were always featured on Star Net.

But that was it.

They knew a bit about that guild because they had been popular for so many other reasons. Admittedly, they never considered looking into their actual profiles and pegged them as a trading guild at best.

So they didn’t really expect them to show up like that. More importantly, no one expected this from a guild with so few members.

Big mistake, apparently.

Yet they couldn’t just talk amongst themselves because there were cameras everywhere, and they couldn’t crash out for the whole universe to see.

They had to maintain composure even if several members felt the need to rush and use their terminals to investigate.

They would talk and research later. They had to or they wouldn’t be able to sleep with all their bothersome questions.

Because if that incident with Zone Four was real, could DG really have participated in that combat-wise?

Also, what about that insane amount of spiritual energy earlier?

Moreover, what was up with their entrance?

And seven members. Do they only have seven members?

Well, apparently not.

Because their spiraling thoughts stopped when they noticed the Orcs in the same area stiffen.

Some foreign delegates were confused, but not the student guilds who had been anticipating this.

Because the next two figures arrived, and the shift was immediate.
