The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1295

“…Yume?”

‘…It really is her…! So it’s true that she wasn’t actually dead!’

Both of them had gotten acquainted with each other on their way to the king of the ocean’s palace. Gerald himself had already saved her on multiple occasions before her eventual disappearance.

Speaking of her disappearance, Gerald had constantly been troubled and filled with self-reproach from the moment she went missing after he fainted—due to a Dead Annie attack—at the entrance of the king of the ocean’s palace. Upon waking, he remembered how he felt as though she had just vanished off the face of the planet.

He even went so far as to send people out to carefully search for Yume—regardless of whether she was dead or still alive—in the area surrounding the king of the ocean’s palace for over a month, though to no avail.

It was around then when Gerald first started wondering if Yume had actually been saved by someone else. After all, he knew that she was looking for the woman in white as well. For all he knew, she had already found the woman in white’s corpse!

Well, his speculation of her being saved was true at least.

‘Still… Why is she even here…? She’s a Gunter too, no…?’ Gerald thought to himself, filled with questions as he helped her regain consciousness using a secret technique.

Due to Gerald’s help, Yume’s expression turned way better in no time at all. Soon enough, Yume’s eyelids began fluttering open ever so slowly, revealing her beautiful eyes…

When she saw Gerald, however, she immediately jolted awake. Though she was definitely shocked, she quickly snapped out of it and grabbed onto Gerald’s arm before shouting, “There are people out to get you, Gerald! You need to run! Quickly!”

Helping her to her feet, Gerald then turned to look at the corpses floating on the river before asking, “You mean them?”

Staring wide-eyed at the dead bodies, Yume replied in sheer disbelief, “You… You killed all seven of them…?”

“Indeed. Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but all of them are from the Gunter family, no?”
