The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2145

Since he had already said this much, Ryugu figured that he may as well just reveal all his thoughts on the situation.

“…I see. Thank god I asked you about this first… Otherwise, I could’ve easily gotten myself killed if I continued pursuing Gerald today!” replied Kai who was already drenched in cold sweat after hearing all that. After all, who could’ve guessed that Gerald was actually this strong? He was strong enough to take on two of the Hanyu family’s strongest assassins for heaven’s sake!

Thinking about it, had Kai bumped into Gerald earlier and caused a scene, he was now worried that the soldiers wouldn’t have been able to protect him at all…

“Indeed… Regardless, what’s your decision on the matter…?” asked Ryugu.

“…I’ll be heading back first to consider all this… However, I still want Gerald dead by the end of all this. No matter how much it takes, I won’t rest easy till he’s six feet under!” growled Kai, gritting his teeth as he clenched his fists tightly.

Nodding in response, Ryugu then rubbed his hands for a while before asking, “…Before that… There’s something I’d like you to clarify, if you don’t mind…”

“Ask away,” replied Kai.

“Well… your family will soon be united with the Futabas, right…? Through marriage? With that in mind, isn’t Gerald a guest of the Futabas? Why are you so hell-bent on killing him…? That’s just me being curious, feel free not to answer…” said Ryugu, worried that Kai would overthink his question.
