The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1174
Getting his fatherâs approval, the young man then began walking toward Gerald and with a contemptuous tone, he scorned, âI hope that you know that there is only submission when it comes to our sacred Holy Witchcraft, young man! Thereâs never been room for any negotiation in the past, nor will there ever be any in the future! With that in mind, since youâre clearly here to seek a compromise, youâre already in the wrong! Due to that, Iâll personally teach you a lesson you wonât ever forget! Weâll see if youâll finally tell my father what he wants to know once Iâm done with you!â
After a booming laugh, he then launched himself toward Gerald!
Gerald, however, was now much faster than him. In one swift move, he grabbed hold of the young manâs head before tearing it right off his body!
The others could only widen their eyes in disbelief as the decapitated bodyâthat was now spurting a fountain of blood from the neckâflopped to the ground.
ââ¦W-what?!â roared Hendrik as Gerald tossed his sonâs headâwhich still retained a frozen expression of shockâto the side.
At that moment, nobody at the table dared to even make a move in their immense shock. Hendrik himself was simultaneously flabbergasted, distressed, and extremely heartbroken by the sudden turn of events.
Not too long after, he managed to snap out of it and the second he did, he immediately stood up trembling. The immensely distressed man felt great pain from his aching heart as he cried out, âM-my sonâ¦!â
He truly hadnât expected that Gerald would possess such great strength! However, it was far too late for regrets now.
Gerald had already killed his only son!
It was at that moment when screams filled the room as the dancing girls finally snapped out of their horrified states and immediately began scattering to get out of there! Even the servantâwho had earlier been trying to stop Gerald from enteringâinstantly turned around to run after witnessing Geraldâs terrifying strength.
To his utter dismay, he was only a few steps away when he felt Geraldâs hand on him! Fear was the last emotion he felt as Gerald took in a deep breathâ¦
And just like that, the servant felt like millions of tiny explosions were simultaneously taking place all over his body! Though he was now still standing in place, the others watched in horror as a strange red mist began seeping out of every orifice on his body! By the time Geraldâs attack was done, the young servantâs body appeared to have been sucked dry and was now nothing but a shriveled up black corpse!
How absolutely horrifying and cruel! Frightened to death by all this, everyoneâs fight or flight instinct was instantly triggered.
Run. They needed to get the hell out of this place!
At that moment, that was the only thought in the minds of those who were earlier playing cards with Hendrik.
They were all well aware that Gerald was here to have his revenge on Hendrik, and though he was a good friend of theirs whom they could play cards with, there was no way in hell they were staying to die with him here today, especially after seeing how tragically the servant and Hendrikâs son had died.
Though the men began running in all directions, hoping to escape, it was a futile effort, to say the least.
After all, Gerald had already planned to kill everyone here tonight.
Regardless, they could wait. After all, Chesterâs murderer was now standing right in front of him.
Turning to look at Chesterâs murdererâwho was now standing right before himâGerald recalled how Chesterâs death had filled Gerald with immense sadness and guilt. After all, he had only died to save Gerald.
While it was true that the others in the room didnât have anything to do with that, Gerald simply wanted all of them to die here together with Hendrik today, simple as that. Not one of them was leaving alive tonight!
With that, Gerald released the Dawnbreaker.
Though everyone was undoubtedly fast, the Dawnbreaker was faster.
Even before any of them were able to make their way to the door, one by one, decapitated heads fell to the ground, followed shortly after by their bodies.
While he had earlier been filled with both anger and resentment after witnessing his sonâs murder, after watching Gerald kill off all his friends so effortlessly, all the previous feelings were instantly replaced with sheer panic as he began trembling uncontrollably.
The person standing before him now⦠He was no ordinary man! He⦠He was a death god! A death god who didnât even need to blink or think twice before killing! And his aura⦠What a terrifying aura he exuded⦠The pressure from Geraldâs aura alone made people feel like an impending disaster was coming! Due to that, any sane person would only be able to think about surviving within his terrifying presence!
Now brimming with fear, Hendrik immediately knelt and hit his forehead against the floor quite loudly before begging with a quivering voice, âP-please, Mr. Crawfordâ¦! Please spare my lifeâ¦!â
âHmm⦠No can do. Regardless, youâve always been obsessed with ancient witchcraft techniques, right? With that in mind, Iâm sure youâd love to personally witness and experience one of the more vicious and terrible ancient techniques! Hereâs how itâll go. Iâll plant the witchcraft within you, and from there on out, itâll begin to slowly corrode your internal organs bit by bit, until your insides all turn into rotten meat! Now you can take whatever remaining time you have left to learn it!â replied Gerald as he flicked his finger, sending a black, glowing orb floating right into the area between Hendrikâs eyebrows.
Listening to Hendrikâs terrifying screams of agony as he lay on the corpse-covered floor, Gerald retained an indifferent expression as he said, âYou died because of me, Chester⦠Iâll avenge you if itâs the last thing I do!â
