Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2004
âHoly cr*pâ¦! That attack was so terrifyingly awesomeâ¦!â exclaimed Yalinda, unable to help but wonder if sheâd even stand a chance against Yudell if she ended up having to duel against herâ¦
âIt truly is⦠Still, it has its flaws. Itâs a pity that Watts wasnât able to find a way to properly deal with it!â
replied Gerald rather casually.
Unlike other people, Geraldâs trained eye was immediately able to identify how to counter that attack.
âHuh? Have you already found a way to counter the attack, master?â replied Yalinda in disbelief.
âOf course I have!â said Gerald in a confident tone.
With how confident his reply was, Yalinda knew better than to doubt her master.
Whatever the case was, now that Watts had been beaten, General Lucarl stepped forward before announcing, âAnd the winner for this round is⦠Yudell! The Thundering Cloud Sectâs representative!â
Hearing that, Yudell then sheathed her sword⦠Since this was simply a competition, there was no need for her to overdo things. Besides, if she had really wanted to kill Watts, she wouldnât have held back her full strength earlierâ¦
Watt himself was naturally dissatisfied with the results. However, he knew better than to be a sore loser before all those spectators. Doing so would only bring shame to his Sect of Steelâ¦
Regardless, Kay then cleared his throat before declaring, âA stunning first fight! Letâs proceed with our next contestants, Gerald Crawford, the representative of Juanâs Delivery House, and Clyde Gower, the Gower familyâs representative! Please prepare yourselves!â
âOh? I didnât think youâd go up against Clyde, master! If heâs your opponent, youâre definitely going to win.â said Yalinda rather excitedly.
âYou seem familiar with him⦠How powerful is he?â asked Gerald.
âHeâs about as strong as I am. In other words, heâs nowhere near your level!â explained Yalinda.
Nodding in response, Gerald then walked into the arenaâ¦
Clyde himself was already there, and the second he saw Gerald, he immediately frowned before scoffing, âWhy are you representing the Juans Delivery House instead of Yalinda?â
While the others didnât know it, Clyde had specifically trained himself to deal with Yalinda for the longest time. With that in mind, he was understandably grumpy now that this random nobody showed up instead of her.
âWho even is this guyâ¦?â grumbled Clyde in his mind. Simply chuckling in response, Gerald then smiled subtly before replying, âYou wonât be able to take her on with me here!â
Upon hearing that, Clyde grew even more gloomy. Still, Gerald didnât look particularly strong to him, so he wasnât planning on taking him seriouslyâ¦
While all this was happening, Yudell herself kept a close eye on Gerald, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
After all, since there was a chance that sheâd face him later, she wanted to see how strong he truly was.
âAhh⦠Who cares if the Juans Delivery House has two representatives! IâIl just take you down first so that I can beat Yalinda later!â scoffed Clyde confidently, knowing full well that the weak-looking man before would never be able to pose a threat to him!
