Chapter 1848
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1848 After saying that, Gerald stared hard at the fake Juno⦠and in the end, his immense willpower was able to break the illusions around him!
Watching as everything returned to normal, the surprised Torme could only stare at Gerald. To think this youth would have such powerful willpowerâ¦
ââ¦Iâve yet to meet someone who has willpower as great as yours⦠You truly are a powerful individualâ¦â praised Torme.
âI appreciate the compliment, sir. Regardless, I assume you were testing me on my willpower?â asked Gerald slightly curiously.
âIndeed, and with how easily you broke the illusion, Iâm pleased to say that you passed with flying colors! Your performance up till this point has been well over my expectations!â declared the amazed Torme.
Compared to all the previous others who had taken the test, Gerald was by far the fastest to shatter the illusion⦠It was incredulous, honestly.
Whatever the case was, Gerald then nodded before asking, âSo⦠thatâs test three, correct? How many tests are there in total, sirâ¦?â
Realizing that he hadnât told Gerald about that, Torme quickly replied, âThere are a total of five tests, so only two remain now. Even so, I hope you donât let your guard down since the final two tests will be the deciding factor on whether or not you get your passing permit! Iâll also say it in advance that those two tests are extremely difficult to pass, so you best prepare yourself mentally!â
âWorry not, sir! Iâm ready and Iâll definitely pass the tests!â replied Gerald confidently.
âVery well, then! Let the fourth test begin!â declared Torme with a nod as he changed the scene once moreâ¦
Once everything settled down, all that remained was a table that stood before Gerald⦠On it was a piece of paper, a pen, and three boxesâ¦
Raising a slight brow, Gerald then walked over to the table to have a closer lookâ¦
The second he was close enough, Gerald quickly realized that the names âReyâ, âJunoâ, and âYrsaâ had been written on the three respective boxesâ¦
Before Gerald could wonder what this test was about, Tormeâs disembodied voice could suddenly be heard saying, âOut of the three names before you, youâll need to choose one of them to die. Mind you, youâll only obtain the key to open the large entrance of the Phangrottom Clanâs territory once you make your choice.â
Stunned, Gerald could only mutter, ââ¦Thatâ¦â
Gerald was naturally unwilling to choose any of his dear friends to die. Unsure how to even proceed with this, he was prompted to ask, ââ¦Is this truly the only way Iâll be able to obtain the key to open the large entrance of the Phangrottom Clanâs territoryâ¦?â
âIndeed!â replied Torme without the slightest hesitation.
Upon hearing that, Gerald now realized that Torme wasnât kidding when he said that the final two tests were exceedingly difficultâ¦
âJust so you know, if you fail to choose anyone by the end of all this, you wonât be able to obtain that keyâ¦â added Torme, clearly taunting Gerald.
Feeling at a loss, Gerald then began pondering on his next step⦠Until suddenly, he realized that he had a fourth option.
ââ¦Sir, Iâd like to choose myself!â declared Gerald as he wrote his own name on the paper without any hesitationâ¦
