The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1374

“Please, I know why you want to go there so much… I know for a fact that grandma’s captured two of Gerald’s friends and locked them down there. You just want to vent out your anger by hurting them, right?” said Yume without a second thought. After all, she, of all people, understood Felton’s personality the most.

“Bullsh*t! I’m trying to save them and lead them to a safe place!” retorted Felton.

“…What’s your motive here…?”

“Look, Gerald implanted an extremely potent poison within my body. If I don’t save his friends, then he’ll kill me! Is that reason good enough for you?!” replied Felton, hints of fear in his voice.

“…So that’s the case! No wonder your temperament has changed so vastly ever since you returned! Very well! Since only grandma and I have the key to the underground dungeon, I’ll lead you there!” said Yume in a rather willing tone. After all, Yume herself had been racking her brains the past few days, wondering how she could release Gerald’s allies.

The second Yume and Felton walked past the dungeon’s main doors, they were immediately greeted by endless shouting. As it turned out, many others were being kept prisoner there. Even so, they weren’t who the duo was looking for, so they simply walked on till they eventually arrived at the final dungeon.

Even before they got close to that door, however, both of them could already hear Aiden scowling every curse word in the book.

“You b*tch! You’re a wicked old hag, that’s what you are! You better let us go before I curse your entire family…!”

After Yume opened the door—while blushing slightly from all the profanities—both she and Gerald were immediately greeted by the sight of Aiden and Chester who had been tied up with chains. Their torsos, in particular, had been tied extra securely, and both of them had a blue, sparkling bead hung over their chests.

“What do you want? If you’re daring enough, come get it over with me already! Honestly though, what was I thinking when I came over to your family’s trial training back then? To think that I once considered the Gunters to be good… How blind I was! Don’t even get me started on your unreliable promises! After all, you guaranteed us that we’d get at least three meals per day when you first captured us! While that was true at the start, it soon got reduced to two meals, and then to one… Just so you know, we haven’t had anything to eat in the past two days! If you want us to die so much, then just kill us outright! We’ve suffered enough! Once we’re dead, however, do expect our boss to avenge us…!”

“Please stop with the profanities already! I admit that I overlooked your meals! It’s just that I’ve been particularly busy with something in the past few days! Due to that, I admit that I forgot to order for food to be sent to you! I’m terribly sorry that you’ve had to go hungry for the past two days, but know that I would’ve definitely continued feeding you well had it not been for how busy I was!” replied Yume. While she didn’t like how angrily Aiden was scowling at her, she had to admit that she felt slightly guilty.

“That’s quite enough shouting! We’re here to release you today, you know? Once you’re free, you can eat however much you want! Now hurry up and leave this place and remember, don’t ever show your faces in Qerton again!” declared Felton.

Following that, Yume turned to look at both Aiden and Chester before nodding firmly at them.

The second he heard that, a bandit—who had been standing at the side this entire time—quickly shook his head before saying, “H-huh…? Young Master Felton?! You’re letting them free? No way!”
