Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1612 Though the silhouette was extremely quick, Gerald was still able to see it through the corner of hiseye… Realizing that they weren’t alone, Gerald had a gut feeling that the person or thing dashing aboutwas up to no good.

Not wanting Jessica or his parents to know about the figure’s presence—and potentially get worried orscared—, Gerald then quickly said, “You know, it’s getting a bit late, wouldn’t you say? You should goahead and get some rest first, sis!”

“I guess… Don’t stay up for too much longer yourself, Gerald!” replied Jessica as she smiled warmlybefore returning into the manor.

Once he was sure that she had entered, Gerald instantly leaped out of the manor and headed to thespot where he had last been able to sense the shadowy figure’s presence. Upon arriving at the spot,Gerald stopped in his tracts before activating his holy sense to scan the area…

After standing there in silence for a while, Gerald eventually looked up at the trees surrounding himbefore shouting, “Come out already! I know you’re close by!”

Almost immediately after, the rapid rustling of leaves could be heard as the silhouette from beforedashed out from one of the trees!

Noticing that it was charging toward him with a blade that glinted coldly in the moonlight, Geraldinstantly stepped aside to dodge the attack before attacking his assailant with his right palm!

By the end of it all, both of them managed to successfully launch their attacks, though neither of themgot hurt…

“Who are you?” asked Gerald in a frigid tone.

“To think that someone at your age would be able to enter the Sage realm… What a promising futureyou show! Regardless, at the rate of how fast your strength is growing, I have little doubt that you’ll beable to destroy the Quantocks with ease!” replied the slightly surprised person in a rather devilish tone.

Squinting his eyes, Gerald then glared at the man in black as he said, “Again, who are you? If you’reworthy enough then you should identify yourself as well as your intentions outright!”

“Hah! The truth is, you’re the one who isn’t worthy enough to know my identity yet! Regardless, I’ll atleast let you know that I was sent here under the orders of God Lord!” replied the man with a snicker.

Before Gerald could even ask him about any more details, the man in black bolted off! And just likethat, his presence was completely undetectable, gone in the dark of night…novelbin

Shortly after, Gerald heard Jade Infused Blade say from within his body, “Master, that man wasstrong…! He had to at least have entered the Second-soul-rank of the Sage Realm!”

“…I see. Tell me, Jade Infused Blade, do you have any idea who that ‘God Lord’ that mysterious manmentioned is…?” asked Gerald rather curiously.

“I haven’t heard of him before, though from what I can guess, he must be from Jaellatra!”

So, it was just as Gerald had predicted… Quite a stir must have taken place following the death of theQuartermains… The fact that this man had come all the way from Jaellatra to meet him was already aclear sign that more trouble was imminent.

“Still, I could sense that that man wasn’t trying to fight you, master… From what I could see, it seemedlike he was just trying to test your abilities!” added Jade Infused Blade.

Gerald had assumed that as well. After all, the man hadn’t tried to do anything particularly fatal to him.

Understanding that there was a possibility that he was simply being tested, Gerald had made sure notto show too much of his capabilities earlier. Due to that, hopefully the man didn’t manage to gather toomuch data.

“Well, if I want to know more about this, I guess I’ll just have to look for this ‘God Lord’ and ask himmyself!” muttered Gerald to himself as he casually looked in the direction where the man in black hadrun off to…
