Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1846

After thinking about it for a while longer, Gerald declared, “…I choose to let fate decide!”

“…Oh? An unexpected answer! Care to explain why?” asked Torme.

“Well, essentially, not one person can truly decide the life or death of themselves or others. In the end,fate is the final decider. If it truly is a person’s time to meet their end, then there’s simply no stopping it.With that in mind, I have no right to choose the eventual destinies of these people! While it’s true thatI’d love to have all the despicable villains die, I believe that they’ll eventually reap what they’ve sown!After all, fate will surely grant them suiting ends when the time is right!” explained Gerald.

After saying all that, applause could instantly be heard as Torme said, “Not bad! You’re different fromthe others! Congratulations, you’ve passed the first test!”novelbin

Following that, the darkness disappeared, and everything appeared the way it had previously been.Torme himself hadn’t budged from the spot, though he was now smiling as he praised, “As you’ve said,nobody can truly decide the life and death of themselves or others. I’m glad to hear that you’re not thekind of person to mercilessly kill others!”

While Gerald was surprised to know that he had passed the first test so easily, he quickly snapped outof it before politely replying, “I appreciate the compliment, sir!”

“Well said! Regardless, are you ready for your second test?” asked Torme.

“I am!”

Upon saying that, Gerald watched as Torme vanished once more and his surroundings began changingagain…

In the end, Gerald was enveloped in darkness again… This time, however, there was a screen withquickly alternating scenes playing on it…

From what Gerald could see, the screen was projecting the experiences of a person from the momenthe was born till the day he died…

“What you’re watching is a person’s entire life… Fleeting, isn’t it? Now tell me, what do you think aboutlife?” asked Torme’s disembodied voice.

Hearing that, Gerald turned to look at the screen, wondering if he was now being tested on hisunderstanding of life…

‘What do I think about life…? What even is life…?’ Gerald thought to himself.

After a brief pause, Gerald was prompted to ask, “…Have you experienced life as a human before,sir?”

“I have, though I refuse to experience such a life again!” replied Torme in a slightly remorseful tone thatGerald was immediately able to up.

From what Gerald could assume, Torme must have lived an excruciating life for him not to haveanother shot at it.

With that, Gerald then closed his eyes tightly as multiple scenes began playing in his mind… Thescenes themselves were his own experiences from when he was young up till this very day…

While it was true that as a child, he had it pretty rough, he was now living quite a good life. Wasn’t lifejust a series of joys and sorrows as well as partings and reunions?

It wasn’t long after that thought when Gerald reopened his eyes before saying, “…While everyone’slives are different, to me, life is essentially just a cycle that one goes through from the day they are borntill they die… The cycle itself is essential so that one gains enough experience to better themselvesbefore they enter the afterlife…”
