Chapter 1845

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1845 Gerald himself soon came across a white-haired person donning a long, grey robe…

“Hmm… I can see that you’re half human and half ghost!” said the robed person as he stared at Gerald from head to toe.

Naturally, this momentarily startled Gerald. To think that this person would be able to tell that easily!

“…And you are…?” asked Gerald.

“I go by Torme, and I’m the phantom emissary in the most feminine place. In simpler terms, I’m responsible for interacting with outsiders. It’s the reason why I was so easily able to discern your origins,” explained Torme.

“…I see. It’s a pleasure to meet you, sir. I go by Gerald Crawford, and just as you’ve said, I’m half human and ghost. However, do note that I’m also a cultivator!” replied Gerald, not feeling the need to hide that fact.

“That would explain why there’s such a massive cocktail of spiritblade and holy spirit within your body…

Still, the spiritblade you own is simply astonishing. If this continues on, something will definitely happen to you!” said Torme with only good intentions.

Of course, Gerald knew for a fact that Torme was talking about the Astrabys Sword that he had on him.

Choosing to ignore the topic, Gerald then declared, “…Whatever the case is, I’m here to obtain a passing permit, sir!”

“So it would seem. I’m assuming you’re trying to head to the territory of the Phangrottom Clan, correct?” asked Torme as he stared at the youth.

“Indeed!” replied Gerald with a nod.

“I assume you know that you’ll have to pass a test before you’re able to get the permit?” said Torme as he continued staring at the youth.

“I do. It’s the reason I came here in the first place!” replied Gerald in a determined voice.

“Very well, then. Are you prepared?” asked Torme.

“Ready as ever!” declared Gerald without the slightest hesitation.

The second Gerald’s sentence ended, however, Torme seemingly vanished as Gerald’s surroundings instantly darkened!

While a regular person would’ve certainly felt that the darkness was overbearing, Gerald was no ordinary person.

Standing calmly on the spot, it wasn’t long after before a stone door appeared before Gerald.

“This will lead to the first stage of your test,” said Torme from within the darkness.

Hearing that, Gerald then turned the doorknob… and upon opening the door, he was greeted by an astonishing sight.

Before him, was near-endless people killing each other! The fact that the individuals looked like they came from different time periods only served to confuse Gerald even more.

“From the past, till the present, war has never changed… Murder and death are simply interconnected.

Regardless, here are three choices. Based on what you’re currently seeing, would you choose to let all the villains die? Or perhaps you’d prefer to allow all the good people here to have a chance to get reincarnated. There’s also the option of simply allowing fate to decide… Which will it be?” asked Torme’s disembodied voice.

Upon hearing that, Gerald began pondering about it.

While the test may have seemed easy, Gerald knew that it was simply a front. After all, how could a test on human nature ever be that simple?

Either way, Gerald knew that all three choices weren’t all that bad. The problem was, which was the correct answer? He really didn’t want to fail the very first test…
