The Duke's Prodigy

Over 60 million miles from Earth, a lonely ship's engineer falls lifeless to the floor. Executed for a crime he didn't commit. Executed to preserve the mission. However, his life doesn't end there. He awakens to find himself transmigrated into another world. One small problem: he's just a baby. He has to precariously balance a mysterious 'system,' noble politics, and assassination attempts before he can walk. With a wealth of knowledge of science and physics, he proceeds to turn the world upside down.

C50 - Investigation

The next morning at breakfast, I was still being drilled in etiquette. This meant that Selahe was sitting across the table. With the last bite consumed, I was able to converse more freely than small talk. 

I said confidently, "Selahe, I have something to confess. It might make you angry."

He frowned and said, "Go on."

"I snuck to the dungeon entrance last night." I said simply, waiting for his anger.

He sighed and asked, "For what reason?"

"I wanted to see if the dungeon would interact with my blessing" I replied. I was careful to avoid mentioning Fazio's involvement. I knew if I did, he would be reprimanded.

He arched one of his goatman eyebrows and asked, "And?"

I said, "There was." He nodded as if that was it before I continued, "I want to enter the dungeon with the adventurers."
