Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1039
ââ¦Huh?â
Startled by what they had heard, everyone immediately turned to look out the courtyard. In the darkness, the faint silhouettes of two figures could be seen approaching their home. One of them appeared to be a man while the otherâthat followed closely behind the manâs silhouetteâseemed to belong to a puppy with somewhat glowing green eyes.
The moment moonlight shone upon the duo, everyone ended up taking a deep breath when they realized who it was.
âG-Gerald Crawford?!â
âHow the hell did he get out there? Wasnât he in a coma of sorts?!â said one of the Moldells.
âWho cares? Rather, isnât it perfect that we already know where he is? We donât have to waste any time locating him now!â added another member of the Moldell family in a cold tone.
As everyone continued discussing the situation, the main entranceâs door creaked open. Walking over casually, Gerald then asked with a smile on his face, âWell then, I assume everyone from the Moldell family is here today, no?â
Though he was smiling, everyone who saw him felt chills run down their spines. The Moldells knew the face of evil when they saw it.
âArenât you being a bit too arrogant, young lad? Tell you what, I donât believe any of the rumors regarding your immense powers and abilities. Now stop acting so cocky as I show you the true power of the Moldell familyâs bloodline!â shouted a young Moldell as he bolted toward Gerald to attack!
Before his fist could even reach Geraldâs face, however, Gerald clasped his hands over the young manâs hand. Frozen in place, the young man found that he couldnât move a muscle! It was a second later when a loud thud could be heard.
Gerald had used his palm to smack the man directly in his face! The immense force caused all the manâs bones to simultaneously shatter as his body immediately flew backward.
Anything that lay in the falling bodyâs path ended up getting knocked over until finally, the dead man stopped moving when his body slumped against the wall on the far end of the room.
ââ¦W-what?!â
Their eyelids twitching frantically, everyone found themselves taking a few steps back.
So it seemed that the rumors had been true. Gerald truly had been the one who had killed all eight of the Moldells back in Lovewell Manor!
Taking in a deep breath, Yash then said, ââ¦Impressive, Mr. Crawford⦠It seems that youâve certainly experienced quite a bit in the past year⦠However, I have to advise you to calm yourself and tone it down a bit⦠Take it as advice from an elder⦠After all, Iâm sure that you know the Moldell familyâs background extremely well by now. Since youâre the only one the Crawfords can depend on, do you honestly think that youâll be able to take on the many other Moldells alone? Youâve already killed several of my men today. Arenât you afraid that thatâll bring misfortune to the Crawford family?â
âHahaha⦠Bring them misfortune, you say? The existence of the Moldells is, in itself, a disaster for my family! Iâll say it right now that Iâve been waiting for the longest time to settle the score with the Modells!
Itâs high time I did just that!â replied Gerald with a subtle smile as he turned to look at everyone in the room.
âAgain, I must say that youâre being way too arrogant, Mr. Crawford! While I do admit that youâre certainly extremely skillful and powerful, I hope you donât forget that there are hundreds of masters from the Moldell family standing before you today. Itâs impossible for you to defeat all of us on your own!â persuaded Yash.
Though he said that, Yash was well aware that they were completely helpless against Gerald. All he could do was try to delay and hopefully stop Gerald from causing more bloodshed among his other family members.
There were hundreds of Moldell masters gathered here today, and Yash wasnât going to allow all those years of being trained by the head of the family to go to waste. He had to deter Gerald some way or another!
âI donât care how many of you there are⦠Iâm dealing with all of you once and for all! No Moldell is going to make it out alive tonight!â declared Gerald as his eyes turned scarlet and a violent aura began surging out of his body!
âDo you think youâre that incredible?! Iâll kill you right here and right now! Bring it on and show me what youâre capable of!â roared Yuvan who was now beyond furious.
Yuvan had been a perfect inheritor of all his fatherâs teachings and from the moment he had gained power in the Moldell family, he had been nearly invincible.
Despite that, to think that Gerald would actually claim that he would exterminate the entire Moldell family alone! The clearly insane Crawford had simultaneously humiliated his entire family as well!
Clenching both his fists, Yuvan channeled his anger into them as a gush of inner strength coursed through his body.
With a giant leap, he prepared to land a roundhouse kick aimed at Gerald! However, though he was extremely fast, Gerald was faster.
Raising his own leg, Geraldâs kick clashed against Yuvanâs!
As the sickening crunch of bones filled the room, everyone stared wide-eyed as Yuvan was kicked back to where he had leaped from. Crashing into a stone pillar, Yuvanâs body had been flung back so hard that he ended up destroying it!
Amidst the debris, Yuvan was already breaking out in cold sweat as he said, ââ¦W-what?!â
From the moment he sensed that he could no longer move one of his legs, he deduced that it was broken. That also told him that among everyone present today, none of them were even close to being capable enough of evading or even blocking any of Geraldâs fearsome attacks.
