The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1062
Upon ending his sentence, a gust of wind blew past the old manâs body, sending his plain clothes fluttering in the breeze.
âVery well. Just so you know, Iâve long known that youâd leave your seclusion sooner or later. Iâve been looking forward to this match for a long time myself!â replied Daryl with a loud laugh.
The others then watched as the two of them slowly began approaching each other⦠Before leaping into the air!
Standing by the side, Gerald watched as both of them displayed equal amounts of strength and skill as they exchanged blows. So this was a fight between great mastersâ¦
Powerful. Truly powerfulâ¦!
However, what surprised Gerald even more was the fact that though Christopher only had one arm, he didnât seem to be fighting at a disadvantage. In fact, even after exchanging over a hundred blows in the blink of an eye, neither of the two old men had gained any sort of advantage over each other.
âIt would appear that youâve been suffering in silence throughout these thirty years, Christopher. To think that you still have so much power even after losing an arm!â said Daryl, a hint of fear in his voice.
âNow youâre just flattering me!â replied Christopher with a bitter smile.
âRegardless, it wonât be easy for you to capture Gerald and take him away!â added Daryl.
âOh, Iâm well aware, Daryl. Thatâs why Iâm going to be showing you a little stunt Iâve prepared. I do wonder if youâre capable enough to withstand it!â said Christopher as he smiled.
âA stunt?â asked Daryl as he frowned.
As soon as Darylâs sentence ended, he watched wide-eyed as Christopherâs body turned somewhat translucent. Realizing that it was an after image, Daryl immediately got into a defensive position as Christopher rushed toward him with extreme speed.
Since Daryl had been expecting an immediate attack, he failed to notice in time that Christopher had a mirror in his hand. The moment the mirror was revealed, a white light shot out from it, hitting Daryl right in the chest!
The moment that happened, Darylâs mind immediately fell into disarray, giving Christopher a chance to slam his palm into Darylâs chest!
Too dizzy to break his fall, Daryl ended up being flung backward before crashing onto the ground!
âGrandpa!â shouted Gerald as he immediately began rushing over to help his fallen grandfather up.
Christopher, however, wasnât having any of that. With a wave of his hand, a surge of energy was launched toward Gerald!
Despite using all his strength, Gerald found himself unable to withstand the immense force. It was at that moment when he finally realized that though he was already a semi-great master, there was still a vast difference between his current power and the power of a full great master.
Defeated in just a single blow, Gerald could feel his blood surging wildly within his body. With the force in his body rushing all over the place, Gerald ended up vomiting blood!
âGerald, retreat!â shouted Daryl as he fumbled up.
âStill, I wasnât expecting you to be cruel enough to break your right arm just to be able to control the power of the mysterious mirror!â added Daryl as the fear in his voice continued to grow.
âHow insightful! No wonder youâre the lord of the Soul Palace! As you probably already know, only a few among the Moldell familyâs ancestors have been able to control the power of the mysterious mirror!
Naturally, Iâm included in that group! Mind you, the Christopher you defeated thirty years ago was still a young and inexperienced person. After that defeat, I was deeply ashamed. As a result, I did my best to improve my strength every day. At one point, I attempted to comprehend the mysterious mirror, hoping to master its power. Unfortunately, I soon came to the conclusion that I wasnât able to fully control the mirrorâs power. Upon finding out that sacrificing my right arm would help me gain full control over it, I did just that as my final resort. As youâve seen, that final resort worked!â replied Christopher.
Just as the picture of the sun was the Crawford familyâs magic artifact, the mysterious mirror was the Moldell familyâs own version of that.
âI must say, however, that I currently donât have much interest in defeating you, Daryl. Rather, Iâm more fascinated by your grandson. After studying his secrets, who knows, I may be able to utilize them for myself so that Iâll be able to take another step further during my remaining days,â added Christopher as he shook his head.
Just as he was about to take Gerald away, an infuriated Daryl shouted, âOver my dead body! I hope you know that the Crawford familyâs blessings of the dragon isnât anything ordinary either!â
Immediately after saying that, Darylâs body began glowing. As a layer of colorful lights enveloped Daryl, his strength seemed to peak as he rushed toward Christopher!
