The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1823

Upon entering the inn, Gerald saw the innkeeper and called out, “Evening! Any available rooms, boss? We have four people and we require two rooms!”

Looking at them, the innkeeper then asked, “Before that, where do all of you come from?”

While Gerald and his party were rightfully startled, Gerald simply smiled before replying, “We’re… From Swindawn City! We’re just here for leisure!”

Hearing that, the innkeeper then nodded before saying, “Very well, then. Here are your two room keys! Your rooms are at the end of the corridor on the second floor!”

“Appreciate it, boss!” replied Gerald as he took the keys and began leading his party upstairs.

Following the innkeeper’s directions, the group then made their way to the end of the corridor. The ladies were to sleep in the room on the left while Gerald and Rey would sleep in the right one.

Regardless, Gerald quickly locked the door behind him once he and Rey had entered.

Now that they had privacy, Rey was prompted to ask, “…I’m not sure if you’ve noticed this, but people in this town seem to give outsiders like us strange looks… The innkeeper was no exception either…”

“I have, and I have a gut feeling that the innkeeper isn’t a good person either. With that in mind, let’s take turns sleeping and keeping watch over the situation. I’ll be first to keep watch, and we can switch places later in the night,” suggested Gerald.

“Sounds good!” replied Rey, feeling much safer now that Gerald had suggested that.

At that moment, knocking could suddenly be heard coming from Gerald’s door.

Raising a slight brow, Gerald then asked, “Who is it?”

“It’s the innkeeper! I’m here delivering some warm water!” replied the innkeeper as Gerald and Rey exchanged glances with each other.
