Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1797

“…Oh? Do you really think you’re capable of getting rid of me?” retorted Gerald as he looked at Yorrekwith a disdainful expression.

Forget getting rid of him, Yorrek was probably incapable of even harming him!

“While it’s true that I can’t personally kill you, I can still get rid of others!” sneered Yorrek beforeimmediately dashing toward Gerald!

Seeing that, Gerald quickly drew the Astrabyss Sword, ready to slash Yorrek when he came withinrange!novelbin

However, in the very next second, Yorrek seemed to just disappear into thin air! Despite Gerald havinghis sword at the ready, Yorrek appeared to have successfully escaped…

While it was certainly disappointing, Gerald was sure that the game between him and Yorrek wasn’tover yet. In fact, this meeting probably symbolized the true start of the games…

Fast forward to sometime later, Rey—who appeared quite flustered—couldn’t help but look at Gerald,his tone brimming with admiration as he said, “You’re… really amazing, you know that, Mr. Crawford?”

“Am I?” replied Gerald in a humble tone.

To explain what led to this exchange of words, let’s go back to when Gerald first regrouped with Rey atthe car park. By that point, Rey had already saved the woman and he was simply waiting for Gerald toreturn.

When he finally saw Gerald, he was about to call out when all of a sudden, Gerald disappeared! Thenext thing Rey knew, a gust of wind had rushed past him, and a second later, all of Tyson’s men—who

had been lying in ambush—could be seen lying on the ground, defeated. Gerald was the only one whoremained standing in the middle…

Naturally, that had stunned Rey greatly, and he became surer than ever that Gerald was actually somekind of mythical being… Thinking back, it truly was a wise decision to remain by Gerald’s side.

Gerald himself found those men to be trivial affairs. After all, it barely took seconds for him to defeat allof them.

While his past self would’ve surely been afraid in that situation—due to his lack of ability back then—,his present self was different. He was no longer afraid of going against people like Tyson or anyonepossessing that level of strength.

“Of course, you are! You were able to beat those ten men like they were nothing! What more, you wereso fast that I wasn’t even able to witness you defeating all of them!”

“Barely praiseworthy. They were just too weak! Speaking of which, call it a gut feeling, but it seemedlike those men were just trying to steal something from you. Am I correct? And if so, what were theytrying to obtain?” replied Gerald rather curiously.

“…That…” muttered Rey, sounding slightly hesitant to reply.

Seeing Rey’s hesitation, Gerald then said, “…If it’s inconvenient to share, just forget about it. I won’tforce you!”

The fact that Rey was being so wary about sharing the information must have meant that the item wasextremely extraordinary and special to him…

“…Rather than it being inconvenient to me, I’m just worried that it’ll bring trouble to you! For context,this item I have… It’s unique, to say the least…” replied Rey.

Rey wasn’t lying when he said that either. After all, if he ended up bring unnecessary trouble toGerald’s doorstep, he would surely end up being filled with self-reproach…

Even so, Rey’s warning only made Gerald even more curious than before.

“…Now I’m really curious. Just tell me what it is already. Don’t worry, I’m stronger than you could everimagine. Who knows, I could even help you solve what’s been troubling you! Besides, I’d rather nothave you bear such a great risk alone!” said Gerald.
