The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2010
âIt looks like Gerald has gotten acquainted with Yalinda and Levi, young master!â muttered one of the men to the youth donning luxurious clothes standing beside him.
The youth himself was none other than Clyde! He had felt extremely humiliated ever since Gerald took him down in a single strike, and his resentment toward Gerald knew no bounds! After all, he hadnât been humiliated before in his life, so he was going to teach Gerald a lesson if it was the last thing he did!
âAs if I care! Gather the four great envoys! I want Gerald dead by the end of this! That way, heâll no longer be able to continue participating in the following competitions!â scoffed Clyde, grinning sinisterly as he looked at the man standing beside him.
âUnderstood, young master!â replied the man with a nod before swiftly leaving the sceneâ¦
Naturally, Gerald and Yalinda had no idea what dangers they would soon come to faceâ¦
Regardless, the three of them soon arrived at a restaurant and sat at a table. After chatting while eating for a while, all three of them almost seemed like old friends who hadnât met each other in agesâ¦
Funnily enough, despite Levi and Yalinda coming from famous and prestigious families in Shontell, they had never personally contacted each other before this. To think that the competition between cultivators would be the push they needed to finally get to know each otherâ¦
Whatever the case was, after eating for a while, Levi turned to look at Gerald before curiously asking, âSpeaking of which⦠I wonder which sect youâre from, Mr. Crawford?â
Levi was asking since he had never seen anything similar to the aura and move that Gerald had used in his battle with Clyde yesterday. With that in mind, he was pretty sure Gerald wasnât a local.
Chuckling in response, Gerald then replied in a rather embarrassed tone, âYouâll have to forgive me, Mr. Homewood⦠My masterâs forbidden me from revealing his title and sect!â
While Levi was stunned to hear that, he didnât continue inquiring⦠Seeing that Levi wasnât pressing on, Gerald himself took the chance to ask, âActually, I do have some questions of my own, if you donât mind me asking, Mr. Homewoodâ¦â
âOh? Go on!â replied Levi.
âWell, I heard that your aristocratic family manufactures swords, right?â
âIndeed we do! Honestly, almost everyone in Shontellâwhoâs proficient in swordsmanshipâuses blades made by my family! Why the question, though? Could it be that youâre interested in manufacturing swords as well?â asked Levi rather curiously.
Nodding with a slight chuckle, Gerald then sheepishly replied, âYou caught me red-handed, Mr.
Homewood! Iâm just interested since Iâve never seen how swords were made before. Besides, I also wish to possess a suitable weapon for myself!â
Gerald wasnât kidding either. After all, if things went swimmingly, there was a chance that he would be able to get the Homewoods to manufacture a perfectly suitable weapon for him. That way, he wouldnât have to fight others unarmed anymore.
âI see⦠Well, since youâre Miss Juansâs master, Iâll just have to pay you some respect! Very well, then!
You can follow me to my familyâs smithery after lunch! You can pick a suitable sword for yourself then!â
replied the sensible Levi, without the slightest hesitationâ¦
