Chapter 1873
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1873 ââ¦What⦠exactly are you doing, brother Geraldâ¦?â asked the confused Rey.
âIâm transferring some power into you so that youâll be able to see ghosts like me from now on.
However, be warned that these evil spirits can be much scarier and more vicious than you could ever imagine. With that in mind, I advise you to steel your will!â explained Gerald.
Since this was going to be Reyâs first time seeing a real evil spirit, Gerald knew that the experience could be quite unnerving. With that, he made sure to tell Rey to prepare himself in hopes that his disciple wouldnât end up just wetting his pants and fainting on the spotâ¦
âGot it, brother Gerald! Iâll be sure to keep myself in check!â replied Rey, determination in his eyes.
Nodding in response, Gerald then led the way into the Elysian Labyrinthâ¦
Once inside, Gerald quickly summoned the Astrabyss Sword before saying, âSpirit Summoning Spell!â
Following that, he began changing an incantation of sorts to summon any nearby ghosts. Once the spell was successfully completed, any spirits lingering around would instantly be compelled to head to the Elysian Labyrinthâ¦
This was also the reason why Gerald had emphasized so much on Rey steeling his spirit earlier. After all, neither of them knew what kinds of ghosts would show up.
Regardless, with the completion of the spell, Gerald and Rey then waited there in silenceâ¦
However, it wasnât long before a chilling breeze blew on the back of Reyâs neck, causing shivers to run down his entire body!
âB-brother Geraldâ¦â whimpered Rey.
Upon hearing that, Gerald instantly swung the Astrabyss Sword at the evil spirit that had manifested right behind Rey!
Rey himself quickly turned back to look at what Gerald was attacking⦠only to find his eyes widening in shock when he saw an evil spirit with a tiny face glaring at him! While the tiny face glowed a dark blue, the spiritâs eyes were a bloody red, making the evil spirit all the more terrifying to look at!
Realizing that Rey was so scared that he couldnât even breathe right, Gerald quickly yanked his disciple to his back before yelling, âStay behind me! Iâll deal with it!â
Now that Rey was in a safe position, Gerald leaped forward to strike at the spirit again!
Even so, the evil spirit wasnât about to allow itself to get hit that easily. Quickly morphing into a black miasma, it immediately began trying to escape!
Of course, Gerald wasnât about to give it that chance. Extending his arm, Gerald then yelled, âSoul Chain!â
And just like that, his Soul Chain was summoned and it quickly wrapped around the evil spirit!
âPull!â instructed Gerald, resulting in the chain forcefully dragging the now angered and roaring spirit right before Geraldâ¦
âDid you honestly think you were going to be able to escape a cultivatorâs grasp, evil spirit?â mocked Gerald in a disdainful tone.
Upon realizing that the spirit had been captured, Reyâwho had just calmed downâquickly walked over to Geraldâs side⦠only to feel his heart skip a beat once more when he saw how truly horrifying the evil spirit looked up-close!
âDonât worry, it canât attack you now that Iâve bound it! Speaking of which, if youâre still feeling intimidated, donât worry too much about it. After all, this is just the first of many, and the more spirits you see, the less threatening theyâll eventually seem!â comforted Gerald, knowing that Rey was finding it hard to accept all this.
Gerald knew for a fact that many people wouldâve already wet themselves upon seeing this evil spirit for the first time. While Rey was initially scared, he eventually became tough enough to handle this much, and that made Gerald feel rather satisfied. After all, he of all people knew that adapting to such horrifying spirits took time, so Gerald wasnât about to force Rey to adapt to them that quickly.
Regardless, after nodding in response, Rey then muttered, âUm⦠Brother Gerald⦠about that evil spiritâ¦â
