The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1541
ââ¦What? Are you saying that Geraldâs already arrived at the Rune Realm?â asked the bewildered Yeshua as he began trembling all over.
âThatâs right! His strength knows no boundaries! You know, it barely took Gerald a single hit to smash Burnard into pieces! What a terrible way to die⦠Regardless, Geraldâs currently so strong that heâs probably no longer afraid of any of the challenges he has to face!â replied the third team leader while quivering in fear.
ââ¦To think that such a powerful person was in Weston⦠Since itâs come to this, Iâm feeling rather motivated now! After all, itâd be an honor if he ends up agreeing to be our chief coach!â declared Yeshua in a now composed tone.
Yeshua was no longer taking Burnardâs death to heart. After all, nothing in the world was more important than the fact that someone had actually managed to enter the Rune Realm!
Just as he was thinking that, the corner of Yeshuaâs eyes caught a glimpse of Geraldâwho had both hands in his pocketsâslowly exiting the crowd.
With that, Yesha quickly walked over to him, bowing slightly before he said, âIâve treated you way too discourteously earlier, Mr. Crawford! Please, forgive me!â
âNo worries, Mr. Lock! I donât take it personally at all!â replied Gerald with a subtle smile.
Quite honestly, Gerald felt little remorse for killing Burnard and his nephew. After all, both of them had acted pretty insensibly.
âThank you, Mr. Crawford! Speaking of which, I heard Hubert say that you wished to borrow our Soul Arch Compass! Truth be told, we donât normally even reveal it to others unless we first receive orders to do so from higher authorities. After all, the compass is the Dragon Squadâs most invaluable treasure.
However, since youâre an extraordinary person, weâll certainly allow you to use it!â said Yeshua extremely courteously.
If Mr. Crawford truly was a person who managed to enter the Rune Realm, then he was undoubtedly a rare specimen on this planet. Should Mr. Lock manage to get acquainted with him, itâd surely end up greatly boosting both the Dragon Squadâs strength as well as its international name! With that in mind, the experienced and astute Yeshua definitely didnât have a problem with any of this.
âIâm well aware. However, the Soul Arch Compass is equally as important to us, which is why I resorted to coming over in the first place!â replied Gerald.
Following that, Gerald allowed Master Ghost to follow Yeshuaâs men into their base to use the Soul Arch Compass.
It didnât take long before Master Ghost was able to learn about some mysteries as well as the location of Yearning Island.
Around that time, Yeshua suddenly began coughing rather badly, eventually even vomiting some blood!
Even so, Yeshua looked like he was used to this, and simply shook his head with a bitter smile before explaining, âApologies, Mr. Crawford! Itâs rather embarrassing that you had to see that⦠Itâs just the result of an old illness of mine!â
âFrom what I can see, youâve been training your martial arts skills in a way that doesnât conform to how regular martial arts are honed. Aside from that, I can also sense that youâve been training your inner skills for over fifty years. With that in mind, itâs no wonder why youâre suffering from internal injuries,â
replied Gerald with a faint smile.
Upon hearing Geraldâs deduction, the shocked Yeshua couldnât help but widen his eyes as he said, âI have to say, you truly are an extraordinary person, sir! As youâve said, Iâve trained this set of inner skills ever since I was twelve, making it well over fifty years since Iâve started my training! Alas, even after training for so long, I find myself unable to even attain entry to the Silver Realm! Regardless, my ancestors were the ones who had created this set of martial arts skills, and itâs been passed down to all subsequent generations of the Lock family. Even so, I do wonder why you said that these martial arts skills donât conform to how regular martial arts are honedâ¦â
Yesha was honestly surprised by Geraldâs claim since he had been quite confident of his familyâs martial arts skills from the very beginning.
âWell, it really doesnât. With that said, Iâd like to momentarily stay within the Dragon Squad in order to teach you a formation, though know that itâll take some time. In return, if it isnât too inconvenient, Iâd like you to show me more of your familyâs inner skills and mental training techniques for observation purposes. If you do so, Iâll also help cure your injuries!â proposed Gerald.
ââ¦Oh? Iâd appreciate that, Mr. Crawford!â
Following Yeshuaâs agreement, Gerald easily cured all his past wounds, and this surprised Yeshua yet again.
After all, not only did Mr. Crawford exhibit exceptional medical skills, but his great mastery over internal skills was also incomparable to what ordinary people could ever hope to achieve.
What more, Gerald even pointed out fifteen faults to his familyâs training techniques. Naturally, after performing them the way Gerald suggested, the results were nothing short of miraculous.
Due to that, Yeshua now revered Gerald greatlyâ¦
