The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1828

“…Well I’ll be d*mned!” declared Rey.

“Hmm? What is it, Rey?” asked Gerald as he raised a slight brow.

“Well, you never told me before that slapping others could be this fun!” replied Rey with a sheepish grin.

Upon hearing that, Gerald and the girls could only roll their eyes in response. What an irritating yet amusing lad…

“Let’s not get too childish, shall we?” muttered Gerald with a sigh as Rey laughed embarrassedly while scratching the back of his head.

“Regardless, what should we do with him, brother Gerald? Should we dispose of him?” asked Rey as he made a slicing gesture on his neck, evidently hinting at decapitation.

“P-please don’t do it, brothers! I now realize the errors in my ways! So please, please, don’t kill me…!” exclaimed the panicking innkeeper as he begged for mercy.

To think that him wanting to earn a quick buck would lead to such a life-threatening situation…! He didn’t sign up for this! He didn’t want to die!

“Hmm… Well, while he is evil, he’s not completely unforgivable… Let’s just leave now that we’ve taught him a good lesson!” said Gerald in a calm tone as he stared at the innkeeper.

The Town of Five Elements really wasn’t a good place to be in… With that in mind, it would be best that they left town as soon as possible before anything really bad happened…

Regardless, it was about ten minutes later when Gerald and his party finished packing up.

While they had decided to spare the innkeeper, they weren’t letting him off the hook that easily. With that in mind, they dragged the tied-up innkeeper—who was still stuck to the same chair—all the way to the front of the inn and left him there. Once dawn came, the citizens could free him on their own.

With that done, Gerald and his party then set off to continue their journey. Since it was still about an hour before daylight, the entire town was enveloped in silence, the only sounds being the low hum of streetlights…
