The Secretly Rich Man

Chapter 1990

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1990 Simply chuckling in response, Gerald then said, “No need to be so modest, captain Juans! Either way,you should really tend to your wounds first.”

Upon hearing that, Tanner realized that he was still pretty badly injured. With that, he then sat downand began treating his wounds…

Shortly after, a troop of horseback soldiers arrived at the inn. From the looks of it, these were theArmored guards of Shontell that Tanner had previously mentioned about…

Seeing them, Tanner immediately got to his feet and greeted one of the armored men, “GeneralLucarl!”

General Kay Lucarl was the commander of the Shontell’s Armored guards, and upon seeing howwounded Tanner was, he couldn’t help but say in astonishment, “Captain Juans! That’s a pretty nasty-looking wound there!”

“It’s only a scratch!” replied Tanner with a chuckle. Instead of laughing along, Kay simply got off hishorse and began looking at all the dead bodies on the ground… While he was definitely sure that afierce battle had been fought here, he couldn’t help but notice that all the enemies were dead.

With that, Kay was prompted to ask, “Did… any of the bandits get away, Captain Junas? And are theholy stones safe?”

“Negative. All the bandits are dead! Also, none of the holy stones got stolen!” replied Tanner.

“What? You managed to kill all of them?” exclaimed the astounded Kay.

“Well, it wouldn’t be fair to claim all the credit. Truth be told, this young man here is the one who tookmost of them out! If it wasn’t for him, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have lived to tell the tale!” explained

Tanner as he gestured toward Gerald.

Raising a slight brow as he looked at Gerald, Kay then replied, “You’re… saying that this lad here killedmost of these men?”

“Indeed! I witnessed all of it with my very own eyes!” exclaimed Tanner as he nodded.

Naturally, this surprised Kay. After all, how powerful did one need to be in order to single handedly takeout so many men? Kay, for one, knew that not many in Shontell were this capable…

After a brief pause, Kay shook his head before ordering, “…Men! Go through their bodies and see if wecan identify them!” Doing as they were instructed, it was only a short while later when one of thesoldiers returned to Kay’s side before reporting, “General! Those men in black seem to be from MountTygress!”

“Mount Tygress? So, it’s them again…!” growled Kay.

Mount Tygress was the name of a group of bandits that had been terrorizing Shontell for ages. Theyspecialized in robbing escort cars and due to the fact that all of their members were extremely capable,not only had they successfully robbed several escort cars before, but Shontell’s army was unable topermanently shut them down. It definitely didn’t help that the path to the bandits’ lair was so windedand windy…

Thinking about it for a while, Kay then walked up to Gerald—who was currently enjoying his tea—before saying, “…. heard from Captain Juans that you took all these people out… If I may, who exactlyare you, and where did you come from?”

Hearing that, Gerald then calmly replied, “I’m merely a vagabond who just so happened to be herewhen all this was happening. As for why I helped, isn’t it common courtesy to help those in need?”

Gerald’s response simply made Kay more and more curious. In all honesty, he still hadn’t gotten overthe fact that Gerald had taken out all those strong men—from Mount Tygress—on his own…novelbin
