Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1691
As the tower’s doors were lowered, Gerald couldn’t help but look around, attempting to gather his bearings.
However, the pitch darkness made it impossible to see a thing…
Just as Gerald was wondering what to do next, a beam of light suddenly appeared from the tower! With how
increasingly bright it was getting, the light’s radiance was reminiscent of a raging bonfire…
Regardless, it wasn’t long after before a man donning white clothes walked out from the light…
Seeing that, Gerald was prompted to ask, “…And you are?”
“I am the god of Astral Traveler in the Leicom Continent, and the form that you’re currently seeing is the final
primordial spirit that I’ve left behind in the Heaven Tower. I was summoned by your arrival!” explained the
primordial spirit as it stared at Gerald.

the sudden turn of events. For one, he definitely hadn’t expected the person before him to be the legendary
ancient god of Astral Traveler…
Chuckling when he heard that, the god of Astral Traveler simply extended his hand… before snapping his fingers.
And just like that, Gerald was greeted by the sight of countless stars! While it was most probably just a manifested
illusion, it truly felt like he was currently standing in the middle of space…
Apparently not done yet, the god of Astral Traveler then waved his hand… Revealing another scene to Gerald. A
greatly unsettling one…
The continent was in ruins, complete shambles! With countless bones scattered across the lands and the sky
layered with a blanket of dark clouds, Gerald felt a shiver run down his spine just from looking at all that…
‘What the hell happened here…?’ Gerald thought to himself.
Now curious out of his mind, Gerald was prompted to ask, “What… on earth happened here, god of Astral
Traveler…?’
The second his question ended, an ethereal ‘whir’ could be heard, prompting Gerald to look at the source of the
sound… and projected there, was the number, ‘three hundred’.
Raising a slight brow, Gerald began wondering, ‘Three hundred? What does that signify? Is it a secret code of some
sort…?’
After a slight pause, the god of Astral Traveler then replied, “…This… is the fate of the world in exactly three
hundred days…”
Upon hearing that, Gerald was rightfully shocked. Eyes widened and filled with incredulity, Gerald then asked, “…
What? The world’s falling into complete ruin by then?”
“Indeed. On the three hundredth day, Masrus, the demonic god will be revived… Following that, he’ll surely take

Jaellatra and the other continents will share that fate as well!” explained the god of Astral Traveler in a solemn tone.
Though Gerald felt that the claim was somewhat reminiscent of some legendary fairy tale, he knew that the god of
Astral Traveler—of all people—wouldn’t lie to him. With that in mind, that meant that the world’s fate was truly
looking grim…
“…I see. God of Astral Traveler, I’m assuming you’re showing me all this for a reason. Could it be that I’m capable
of preventing all this suffering?” asked Gerald.
After all, the God of Astral Tower surely wouldn’t have shown him all this without a proper reason. Could he be some
prophesied savior for the new generation…?
“Your assumption is correct. Only you have the power to go against Masrus, and should you succeed, you’ll surely
become the savior of the world!” replied the god of Astra Traveler as he gave Gerald a determined look.
Utterly shocked by this sudden revelation, Gerald could only think, ‘…But… Why was I chosen to be the savior out of
the blue…?’
