Chapter 1679

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1679 Upon hearing that, Gerald turned to look at the four masters sitting before him… Seeing that, the masters straightened their backs, anticipating Gerald’s choice.

However, even after a while had passed, Gerald didn’t appear to have his choice made.

With all five of them getting increasingly confused, Sumeru eventually asked, “…Are you unable to make a choice, Gerald?”

Forcing on a slightly awkward smile, Gerald then replied, “…Dean Sumeru, am I only allowed to choose among these four masters…?”

“You…! Are you looking down on us, kid?!” shouted Master Jizo as he glared at Gerald, clearly irritated by Gerald’s question.

Keeping his cool, Gerald then explained, “I’m afraid you misunderstand me, Master Jizo. I wouldn’t dare look down upon any of you four masters! I’m just asking to see if there’s a better choice for me!”

“Hmm? What better choice could you possibly be looking for?” asked Sumeru in a rather playful tone.

This young man was rather special…

Hearing that, Gerald then asked, “…Well, I wonder if you’d be interested in taking a student, Dean Sumeru…”

“…Kid, if you haven’t already noticed, Dean Sumeru is the head of the Leicom Academy! How imprudent do you have to be to request for that?!” snarled Master Jizo.

Watching as all this played out, Master Ykink—who was still standing by Gerald’s side—found himself getting increasingly terrified. To think that Gerald would be daring enough to say such things!

Sumeru was the dean of Leicom Academy! The highest-ranked individual of this prestigious place!

There was no way he was going to accept a student just like that!

Surprisingly enough, Sumeru hardly appeared angered by Gerald’s request. On the contrary, he was actually displaying a satisfied smile!

“While you’re certainly a brazen one, you’re the first to make such a direct request before me! Not bad!”

replied Sumeru with a chuckle.

Realizing that Sumeru was actually subtly praising Gerald, the four masters found themselves momentarily stunned. After all, this was their first time seeing Sumeru so interested in a student.

“I’ve never taken a student before, you know? I guess that changes today! With that, I declare that you, Gerald, will be my one and only student!” declared Sumeru while looking straight into Gerald’s eyes.

And just like that, all four masters found their eyes widening even more! To think that he would actually make an exception for Gerald! How unexpected!

“Thank you, Dean Sumeru! No, thank you, dear teacher!” replied Gerald with great respect.

Since he had decided to enroll in the Leicom Academy, Gerald was determined to be the top student.

With that in mind, just having one of the four masters be his teacher wasn’t enough. He had planned to have the dean be his master from the very beginning!

Now that it had been agreed upon, Gerald’s status within the academy would surely skyrocket…
