Chapter 1801
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1801 ââ¦Both of you, stay here. Iâm heading there to have a look!â instructed Gerald as he got up and took his empty glass before walking in the direction where the four men were sitting.
Since the customers had to refill their own drinks in this restaurant, it was perfectly normal for Gerald to get more water for himself. On his return trip, however, he made sure to âaccidentallyâ drop his glass right next to the four menâs table!
Seeing that some of the water had accidentally splashed onto a few of the menâs pants, Gerald quickly reached for the glass while âapologeticallyâ saying, âI-Iâm sorry!â
In response, one of the men simply got Geraldâs glass for him before handing it back to the youth while saying, âItâs fine. Be more careful!â
âI-I will!â replied Gerald as he noticed the tattoo on the manâs wrist while taking his glass back.
Following that, he then hurried back to his dining table. The second he sat down, however, his expression instantly turned slightly unpleasantâ¦
Noticing the change in his mood, Juno was prompted to ask, ââ¦Whatâs wrong, Gerald? Did you manage to gather anythingâ¦?â
ââ¦Well, for one, those arenât ordinary people⦠They belong to the Soul Hunter organization!â
whispered Gerald.
âThe Soul Hunters? Thatâs them? To think theyâd be here as well!â replied the shocked Juno in a hushed voice.
Raising a slight brow, Rey then asked, ââ¦Um⦠Who exactly are the Soul Huntersâ¦?â
As the name suggested, the Soul Hunters were an organization that specialized in hunting and killing ghosts and spirits. Naturally, they also possessed special equipment that would help them detect the presence of what they hunted.
Regardless, Gerald ignored Reyâs question before saying, ââ¦Since theyâre looking for the Demonic Blood Clanâs territory, theyâre definitely after the token of Demonic Blood as wellâ¦â
If that group managed to get their hands on the token, then the consequences would be near unimaginable⦠After all, they would be able to rule over every ghost and spirit on the planet! Things would surely go out of hand by then! With that in mind, there was no way Gerald was going to let them have their way.
âFigured as much⦠Still, what are we going to do now? Are we getting rid of them?â asked Juno.
Shaking his head, Gerald then replied, âNegative. While itâs true that there are only four of them, if I attack them now, I fear that the entire Soul Hunter organization will come after us to have their revenge.
That wouldnât be beneficial at all. With that in mind, I propose that we spy on them first.â
Hearing that, Juno could only agree.
With that, the trio then returned to their rooms to rest after their meal.
Well, Juno and Rey did. Gerald himself simply couldnât allow himself to remain idle. With that, he began meditating⦠and soon enough, he was able to have an out-of-body experience. With his mind now free to explore, Geraldâwho was now invisible to the naked eyeâimmediately began searching for the four Soul Hunters again.
It didnât take long for him to find them, but by that point, all four of them were already sneakily leaving the hotel despite how late it was.
Watching as they entered the darkness, Gerald knew that he had to tail them.
A few minutes later, the group of Soul Hunters found themselves approaching a forest⦠And standing before that forest, was a mysterious-looking cloaked figure who had his back against them⦠It was evident that he was waiting there for themâ¦
Seeing him, the four Soul Hunters then hurriedly stood at attentionâbehind the manâbefore respectfully declaring, âLeader!â
