Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1541
“…What? Are you saying that Gerald’s already arrived at the Rune Realm?” asked the bewildered Yeshua as he
began trembling all over.
“That’s right! His strength knows no boundaries! You know, it barely took Gerald a single hit to smash Burnard into
pieces! What a terrible way to die… Regardless, Gerald’s currently so strong that he’s probably no longer afraid of
any of the challenges he has to face!” replied the third team leader while quivering in fear.
“…To think that such a powerful person was in Weston… Since it’s come to this, I’m feeling rather motivated now!
After all, it’d be an honor if he ends up agreeing to be our chief coach!” declared Yeshua in a now composed tone.
Yeshua was no longer taking Burnard’s death to heart. After all, nothing in the world was more important than the
fact that someone had actually managed to enter the Rune Realm!
Just as he was thinking that, the corner of Yeshua’s eyes caught a glimpse of Gerald—who had both hands in his
pockets—slowly exiting the crowd.
With that, Yesha quickly walked over to him, bowing slightly before he said, “I’ve treated you way too discourteously
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtearlier, Mr. Crawford! Please, forgive me!”
“No worries, Mr. Lock! I don’t take it personally at all!” replied Gerald with a subtle smile.
Quite honestly, Gerald felt little remorse for killing Burnard and his nephew. After all, both of them had acted pretty
insensibly.
“Thank you, Mr. Crawford! Speaking of which, I heard Hubert say that you wished to borrow our Soul Arch
Compass! Truth be told, we don’t normally even reveal it to others unless we first receive orders to do so from
higher authorities. After all, the compass is the Dragon Squad’s most invaluable treasure. However, since you’re an
extraordinary person, we’ll certainly allow you to use it!” said Yeshua extremely courteously.
If Mr. Crawford truly was a person who managed to enter the Rune Realm, then he was undoubtedly a rare
specimen on this planet. Should Mr. Lock manage to get acquainted with him, it’d surely end up greatly boosting
both the Dragon Squad’s strength as well as its international name! With that in mind, the experienced and astute
Yeshua definitely didn’t have a problem with any of this.
“I’m well aware. However, the Soul Arch Compass is equally as important to us, which is why I resorted to coming
over in the first place!” replied Gerald.
Following that, Gerald allowed Master Ghost to follow Yeshua’s men into their base to use the Soul Arch Compass.
It didn’t take long before Master Ghost was able to learn about some mysteries as well as the location of Yearning
Island.
Around that time, Yeshua suddenly began coughing rather badly, eventually even vomiting some blood!
Even so, Yeshua looked like he was used to this, and simply shook his head with a bitter smile before explaining,
“Apologies, Mr. Crawford! It’s rather embarrassing that you had to see that… It’s just the result of an old illness of
mine!”
“From what I can see, you’ve been training your martial arts skills in a way that doesn’t conform to how regular
martial arts are honed. Aside from that, I can also sense that you’ve been training your inner skills for over fifty
years. With that in mind, it’s no wonder why you’re suffering from internal injuries,” replied Gerald with a faint
smile.
Upon hearing Gerald’s deduction, the shocked Yeshua couldn’t help but widen his eyes as he said, “I have to say,
you truly are an extraordinary person, sir! As you’ve said, I’ve trained this set of inner skills ever since I was twelve,
making it well over fifty years since I’ve started my training! Alas, even after training for so long, I find myself
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmunable to even attain entry to the Silver Realm! Regardless, my ancestors were the ones who had created this set
of martial arts skills, and it’s been passed down to all subsequent generations of the Lock family. Even so, I do
wonder why you said that these martial arts skills don’t conform to how regular martial arts are honed…”
Yesha was honestly surprised by Gerald’s claim since he had been quite confident of his family’s martial arts skills
from the very beginning.
“Well, it really doesn’t. With that said, I’d like to momentarily stay within the Dragon Squad in order to teach you a
formation, though know that it’ll take some time. In return, if it isn’t too inconvenient, I’d like you to show me more
of your family’s inner skills and mental training techniques for observation purposes. If you do so, I’ll also help cure
your injuries!” proposed Gerald.
“…Oh? I’d appreciate that, Mr. Crawford!”
Following Yeshua’s agreement, Gerald easily cured all his past wounds, and this surprised Yeshua yet again.
After all, not only did Mr. Crawford exhibit exceptional medical skills, but his great mastery over internal skills was
also incomparable to what ordinary people could ever hope to achieve.
What more, Gerald even pointed out fifteen faults to his family’s training techniques. Naturally, after performing
them the way Gerald suggested, the results were nothing short of miraculous.
Due to that, Yeshua now revered Gerald greatly…
