Chapter 1058

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1058 Daryl then added, “With great masters already existing so few and far between, you may wonder whysuch a powerful force would and could summon so many of them from all across the globe. Well, yousee, nobody would know about the truth behind the event if they didn’t partake in the pledge of the holywater in the first place! Regardless, I told you to stay since there’s a very important clue to all this that Iwanted to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“Well, I know that you’ve constantly been investigating the Sun League. There was a picture that wasetched on the stone tablet that was dug up, and I find it to be quite similar to the place that wasdescribed on the token of the holy water. I want to study it together with you. Call it a gut feeling, but Ifeel that it’s closely linked with the pledge of the holy water.”

“From what you’ve said, it truly does seem relevant. If one manages to participate in the pledge of theholy water, there’s a chance that the secrets of the Sun League—which have remained an enigma fornearly a thousand years—may finally be solved!”novelbin

Despite knowing full well that those who participated in the pledge either went missing right off the bator went insane before dying, Gerald was still very excited to have a lead.

What sort of life did those from within the Sun League live? Who even were their members?

After suffering for over a year, would he finally be able to solve those questions?

Regardless, Gerald finally understood why Finnley had claimed that it would be better to just kill himselfwhen Gerald told him that he was going to investigate the Sun League a year ago. Finnley must’vebeen aware that only great masters would be able to uncover their secrets, and even if they managedto do so, no answers would ever return with them—to the ordinary world—once the event was over.After all, the participants either disappeared or went insane!

“For a while now, I’ve noticed that something seemed to be weighing on your mind. You evensummoned all the family members to observe the picture of the sun! So this was what it was…”

“Indeed… As you can already tell, I may not be able to return once I head out on this journey… If Idon’t leave the picture of the sun with you, then I’ll truly be a great sinner to the Crawford family!”replied Daryl as he shook his head.

“…How do you feel about me representing you to participate in the pledge of the holy water, grandpa?After all, since the picture of the sun predicts that I’ll die soon anyway, I may as well participate in thepledge of the holy water in a final attempt to solve the secrets of the Sun League. Who knows, I mayeven succeed and find out where Mila and uncle are. If I’m able to do that, then I’ll at least be able todie content,” proposed Gerald with a slightly bitter smile.

“Rejected. First of all, my name was the one that was engraved on this token of the holy water, sothey’d surely be expecting me. Secondly, once they find out that you’re only a semi-great master, that’llgive them even more reasons not to allow you to participate. I know how much you love me, Gerald…After all, you’re always so obedient… However…”

At this point, Daryl, one of the strongest to ever live, suddenly burst into tears!

“…I …I just can’t find a way to save you…! I’m uncertain how things will end for me as well once I goon this journey… Gerald, know that you’re the future of the Crawford family… If you die, then our familywill sink together with you!” cried out Daryl.

While he had claimed that he would look for a way to solve things, after being notified of the picture ofthe sun’s prophecy, what else could be done?

Hearing that, Gerald started weeping as well. While he wasn’t afraid of death, since he was now awareof what was to come, he knew that he needed to start staying away from everyone. That alone wasenough to fill him with grief.

“…Please don’t be saddened, grandpa… When that day comes along, I’ll be sure to fight them till myvery last breath!” declared Gerald as he clenched his fists tightly.

Looking at his grandson, Daryl then nodded firmly before replying, “…Either way, that woman in whiteclothes that Lyra keeps mentioning seems to have a lot to do with you! How cryptic… Regardless, Ihave to say that Lyra truly surprised me this time… I’ve heard from your dad that she was the only onewho was able to see a broken stone statue on the map that was traced from the stone tablet! She wasthe sole person to be able to see through and decipher the sun picture’s prophecy as well today! Whatexactly are her origins? You know, I even secretly investigated her when your parents picked her up bythe beach, yet I found nothing at the time. Regardless, it never occurred to me that she would havesuch capabilities…”

Hearing that, Gerald fell silent, feeling both flustered and confused.

While some revelations seemed to have made things rather complicated, Gerald could sense that hewas also getting closer to the truth now.
