The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1796

Soon enough, the duo arrived at what appeared to be a suspended platform.

Looking up and pointing toward it, Gerald then shouted, “Up there!”

As Rey turned to look up, he was surprised to see the hair of a woman hanging from the side of the platform!

It didn’t take a genius to figure out that the woman lying up there was none other than the bank staff member they had previously saved from the ATM machine! To be captured again immediately after being released from the hospital… What an unfortunate woman…

At that moment, both of them noticed that a figure had been staring intently at them from some rockery formations nearby.

Seeing that, Gerald ordered, “…Go save that woman, Rey. I’m hunting that person down!”

Following that, Gerald bolted straight for the figure, believing that he was definitely the culprit behind all this!

As he swiftly gained on the now fleeing man, the frustrated Gerald couldn’t help but yell, “Stop running, you coward!”

To Gerald’s surprise, the man did as Gerald told.

After his abrupt halt, the man then slowly turned around to look at Gerald—who had stopped in his tracks as well—before saying in a sinister voice, “So, we finally meet, Mr. Crawford!”

“…Who the hell are you…” growled Gerald as he glared daggers at the man.

Now understanding that this person had come looking for him for killing the Ember Lord, Gerald then replied, “…Couldn’t come to terms? I’m not sure what your thought process is, but shouldn’t you be thanking me now? After all, I’ve technically avenged you by killing him!”

“Silence! He should have died by my hands! You ruined everything!” roared Yorrek almost hysterically.

Hearing that, Gerald could immediately tell how deep his hatred was toward the Ember Lord. To think that Yorrek would be so reluctant to let him go, even after the Ember Lord’s death…

“…Well, whatever the case is, he’s already dead! What else do you want?” asked Gerald.

“Heh! While he’s dead, you’re still alive! Since you’re the one who killed him, I’m holding you responsible for all this! With that said, I’m killing you as his substitute!” retorted Yorrek in a frigid tone.
