The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1154

After shouting in astonishment, Gerald immediately turned back to look at the old woman, prepared to launch an attack.

However, before he was even able to take a step forward, Gerald suddenly felt all four of his limbs weaken as a dizzy spell simultaneously swept through him.

‘What? But how is this possible?! I’ve long been immune to all poisons!’ Gerald thought to himself as he slowly kneeled to the floor with one knee, his dizziness intensifying.

Seeing that, the old woman smiled wickedly as she slowly began walking toward him while saying, “I can see that your physique is quite different compared to ordinary people… However, do know that the Dead Annies here were initially something different! Let’s just say that they’re a near-perfect counter against you!”

Feeling that he was going to pass out soon if he didn’t do anything quickly, Gerald placed all his remaining focus on using his divine thought to call out, ‘Dawnbreaker!’

Following that, the Dawnbreaker instantly shot out from his sleeve!

The old woman truly hadn’t anticipated that Gerald would actually have a last resort planned quite literally under his sleeve. By the time she noticed the blade flying right for her, however, she was already too late to react in time.

Unable to dodge the attack, the Dawnbreaker ended up stabbing her right in her left arm, sending the old woman toppling to the floor!

Strangely enough, the moment she fell down, the intense dizziness that Gerald had been experiencing suddenly vanished!

‘…So it wasn’t poison that was causing my dizzy spell!’ Gerald thought to himself as he quickly regained his power.

Thinking about it, Gerald soon deducted that the old woman had launched a mental attack at him instead of using actual poison, and that she had only used the pollen as some sort of medium. To think that his mental power had been controlled by that old woman earlier!

While the old woman certainly appeared surprised, she quickly snapped out of it, getting to her feet and running into a room!

Gerald himself made a dash to the door… Only to be greeted by the sound of shattering glass as the old woman crashed through the room’s sole window and jumped into the open sea!

By the time he got to the window, the old woman was nowhere to be seen.
