Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1671
âWell, for one, this particular fruit is a holy fruit known as Heavenâs apple!â explained the crowned woman.
As she went on, Gerald came to learn that the Heavenâs apple only matured once every hundred years.
Since the fruit was capable of replenishing energy and mending wounds, it was a fundamental pharmaceutical ingredient in the Leicom Continent.
ââ¦Alright, but⦠That doesnât explain why the dragonâs so interested in the Heavenâs apples. Just so you know, I even fed it meat earlier, but it barely showed any interest!â replied the confused Gerald.
Chuckling in response, the crowned woman then said, âSince thatâs the case, Iâm now surer than ever that the green dragon is one of the Divine Beasts of the Leicom Continent. Iâm assuming you found it while taking on the Challenge of the Fairyland? Regardless, just know that the dragon will only feed on Heavenâs apples!â
Seeing that Gerald registered her words, the crowned woman then cleared her throat before adding in a more serious tone, âEither way, since the young green dragon chose you to be its master, Iâm sure youâre no ordinary person. With that said, I hope youâll nurture it well! If you do, Iâm sure itâll help you obtain unimaginable gains!â
Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded. Even without the idea of getting anything back in return, he was still going to take good care of the baby dragon.
Pleased by Geraldâs determination, the woman then waved her hand⦠prompting hundreds of Heavenâs apples to be plucked before they quickly gathered in front of Gerald!
Momentarily dumbfounded, Gerald eventually snapped out of it before asking, ââ¦Whatâs all this then?â
âWell, letâs just say that I believe we were fated to meet! Since the young dragon needs the Heavenâs apples anyway, consider these to be my gift to you!â replied the crowned woman with a smile.
Before Gerald could even reply, the crowned woman had already leaped into the sky, and soon after, she couldnât even be seen anymoreâ¦
Unsure how to even respond to the turn of events, Gerald simply placed all the Heavenâs apples into his storage ringâ¦
Following that, Gerald then began walking out of the manor with the baby dragon. Since it was already full, the happy dragon soon began snoring within the storage ringâ¦
Sighing helplessly, Gerald then muttered, âHey now⦠To think that youâre sleeping right after I cleaned up the mess you made⦠It makes me wonder if Iâm really your master here!â
Still, the dragon was now his pet, so Gerald was well aware that it was his duty to take good care of it.
Eventually, Gerald reunited with Nori and Zelig who had been waiting at the manorâs gate this entire time.
Seeing that he was in one piece, both of them instantly sighed in relief. That made it quite evident that they had been worried about his safety this entire time.
Even so, that didnât stop Nori from looking around Geraldâalmost as though she was trying to see if he had suffered any injuriesâas she asked, âAre you alright Gerald? Are you hurt anywhere?â
Shaking his head, Gerald then replied, âIâm perfectly fine. I was able to clear the misunderstanding!â
Hearing that, the duo was relieved once again. After all, they would surely be greatly saddened if something bad happened to him.
Regardless, now that the food problem had been solved, Gerald then looked at the duo before asking, âSpeaking of which⦠Do you two have a reason for coming here?â
Quite frankly, he had no idea why he was here in the first place.
ââ¦Huh? Youâre telling us you donât know why weâre hereâ¦?â replied Zelig in surprise.
âNot a clue. Iâm assuming you know the reasonâ¦?â asked Gerald with a slight frown as Zelig and Nori exchanged glances with each other before nodding.
