The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 2168

“Is… there anything else you’d like to know? I’ll answer honestly!” replied Amare who was now feeling that Gerald wasn’t the person he had previously assumed to be.

The truth was, he had initially thought that Gerald was an evil and ruthless person who would do anything to breach into the Crawford family and exploit them once he became the patriarch. After their brief interaction, however, he now felt that Gerald was actually a rather gentle soul, contrary to his initial belief.

While it was true that he still killed the assassin from before, Gerald had every right to do so since he was ambush-attacked by him… Regardless, Gerald had also made it a point that he was going to spare his life just because they shared the same surname. It was honestly making Amare feel slightly touched…

Amare’s train of thought was cut short when Gerald calmly replied, “That’s all I needed to know.”

“I see… Well, as promised, you can scrap my cultivation now and I’ll head home immediately…” said Amare in an equally calm tone despite knowing full well what would happen once his cultivation was taken away from him.

Essentially, he’d turn into an ordinary person, and Amare was pretty sure that those he had previously offended would take the chance to treat him harshly… Even so, having to experience that was worth it as long as he could remain alive. After all, all wasn’t lost. He simply had to start from scratch again. If he died now, however, everything would truly end.

Hearing that, Gerald simply poked twice on the chakras—on Amare’s chest—before replying in an indifferent tone, “Just leave.”

“…Huh?” asked Amare as he slowly regained control over his body. Hopping to his feet, Amare couldn’t help but feel exceedingly confused at the moment. After all, Gerald scraping his cultivation—in exchange for his life—was already extremely merciful of the youth. So why was he letting him leave just like that? Had Gerald forgotten that he had attempted to assassinate him earlier?

“Unless you’re secretly a masochist, I suggest you leave while you can,” said Gerald with a chuckle.
