The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1710

When Gerald awoke the next day, he was greeted by the sight of his master—who had his eyes closed—sitting by his bed.

Attempting to get up, Gerald immediately realized that his entire body was aching… He couldn’t even sit up!

At that moment, Sumeru suddenly opened his eyes. Realizing that Gerald had regained consciousness, he instantly smiled as he said, “Gerald! You’re awake!”

“Master, I…”

“Don’t worry, you’ll be fine. You’re just suffering from some internal injuries at the moment. You’ll be as fit as a fiddle soon enough as long as you recuperate properly for the next few days!” replied Sumeru before Gerald was even able to finish his question.

Hearing that, Gerald fell silent…

Shortly after, knocking could be heard from his room’s door.

Walking over to open it, Sumeru saw that it was Meilani who was here to bring Gerald his breakfast.

After entering the room, Meilani placed Gerald’s breakfast on his table before asking in a concerned tone, “How do you feel, Gerald? Any discomfort anywhere…?”

Smiling subtly in response, Gerald then shook his head before weakly replying, “I’m fine… I just need to recuperate for a while…”

Seeing that Meilani was going to care for Gerald, Sumeru then left the room.

Upon seeing that, Meilani then took the chance to whisper, “Say, I have some good news, Gerald! The master of the Wroe family was killed in his own house yesterday!”

Appearing momentarily stunned, it was made evident that Gerald hadn’t expected such an event to happen out of the blue.

A short pause later, Meilani then added, “…Also, you may not know this, but your master went off someplace last night to, ‘attend to something’, as he said…”

“Don’t worry, I’m feeling much better now!” replied Gerald with a smile.

“That’s great to hear, Mr. Crawford! Do rest up in the next few days so that we can resume our journey once you’re fully cured!” said Ray.

In his current state, there was no way that they were going to be able to continue their journey at their initial rate. With that in mind, the best course of action now was to wait for Gerald to get better.

Nodding in response, Gerald went silent for a while before eventually turning to look at his party and asking, “Speaking of which, where did master go?”

“Ah, the dean’s already left! He told us to take good care of you, and he also instructed us to tell you that he’s resolved everything for you. With the Wroe family currently in disarray, it won’t be long before they ruin themselves!” explained Ray.

Upon hearing that, Gerald could rest assured. Despite the good news, however, there was a nagging feeling within him…

The fact that he was still beaten up that terribly the day before meant that he still wasn’t powerful enough…
