Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1847
“Pain, happiness, money, and family… all those are just small parts of life. In the end, what reallymatters are the choices one makes as they slowly proceed through the cycle of life… While I’m notsure what experiences you’ve undergone before, I do know that life isn’t constantly filled with grief andpain. Enjoyable parts of life definitely exist, and once individuals realize that, they’ll surely live betterlives instead of constantly complaining about life’s injustices…” explained Gerald.
While Gerald hadn’t really grasped what the test was about in the beginning, after thinking about allthis, he was now sure that he was being tested on how well he understood life.
What more, Gerald had noticed that the scenes playing on screen were simply Torme’s experienceswhen he was still alive. With that in mind, Gerald was sure that the test was also done to help Tormeresolve his inner issues.
Whatever the case was, Gerald was now sure that in order to have a good life, one had to experience itto the fullest. In doing so, individuals would be able to go through the most of their grief, joy, partings,and reunions before they eventually passed on…
Regardless, after Gerald stated his answer, Torme reappeared before Gerald again, causing the roomto revert to the way it was.
Smiling subtly, Torme then said, “For hundreds of years, I’ve been waiting for a person to help meresolve all my resentment… Thanks to you, I’m no longer burdened by all this! As you’ve said, goingthrough cycles is the only way that humans are able to progress! Congratulations, you’ve passed thesecond test!”
Hearing that, Gerald couldn’t help but feel happy.
“…However, your life is much more different compared to others. After all, at this rate, you’re goingthrough way more gains and losses than any average joe could ever experience. With that in mind, Ihope you’re mentally prepared for the fact that in the end, some of those people will leave you forgood…” added Torme.
Upon hearing that, Gerald’s heart skipped a beat. From the looks of it, Torme could see Gerald’sfuture…
While he now knew that, Gerald chose not to ask for any details. After all, there was no use knowingabout the future. In the end, he was the one in control of his own fate, and he refused to deliberatelychange it just to alter the future that Torme saw.
Besides, it wasn’t as though he was going to be able to alter his future the second Torme told himabout it. Every action he made could vastly change his fate, after all.novelbin
Whatever the case was, Gerald simply nodded at Torme in response before saying, “Understood, sir!”
“Very good. Now then, let the final test begin!” replied Torme as he waved his hand, causing the sceneto shift again…
While Gerald was surprised that Torme didn’t even ask him if he was ready this time, he was evenmore astonished when he suddenly saw a figure slowly approaching him…
Squinting his eyes to get a clearer look at the figure, it wasn’t long before the stunned Gerald realizedwho she was…
It was none other than Juno!
When Juno got close enough, she smiled faintly before calling out, “Gerald!”
Hearing her gentle, familiar voice, Gerald couldn’t help but ask, “…Juno… You… Why are you here…?”
“Say… Why don’t we stay here forever, Gerald…? Just you and me in the most feminine place…together,” replied Juno, completely ignoring Gerald’s question.
“…Huh? Stay… here? Of all places? Why would you even suggest such a thing…?” asked the deeplyconfused Gerald.
“…Hmm? Could it be that you’re hesitant about staying here with me…?” replied Juno as her cheeryexpression instantly turned gloomy.
Before Gerald replied, he suddenly remembered that up till this point, everything that Torme had shownhim had merely been illusions. With that in mind, he now knew that this ‘Juno’ was nothing more thanjust another illusion!
“…I refuse! After all, everything here is just an illusion!”
