The Secretly Rich Man

The Secretly Rich Man Chapter 1981-1990

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1981

Momentarily stunned to hear that, Fayth quickly snapped out of it before saying, “…Elaborate.”

“As she was heading to Heavenstar Town to get medicinal herbs, she was assaulted by a few men from the Whitehaar Abbey! Had I not stepped in to save her, your sect would’ve surely received a major loss in the form of your chief disciple!” explained Gerald.

Eyes widened, Fayth then turned to look at Zianne before asking, “Does he speak the truth?”

“He does! The assailants were Johnny and four of his Whitehaar Abbey friends! If you need proof, just have a look at the wounds they inflicted on me! Regardless, it was I who invited Warrior Crawford over to show my appreciation for saving me! Even so, I know I’ve done wrong, so do punish me if you feel the need to!” replied Zianne.

Hearing that, Fayth immediately calmed down before walking over to Zianne and helping her up…

Turning their backs to Gerald, Fayth then slid Zianne’s clothes off—up till her shoulders— before realizing that there really was a bruise there. Zianne had been telling the truth!

Now that she realized this, Fayth instantly growled, “I recognize this bruise pattern… It was caused by a Dark Cloud Palm attack, an attack that’s exclusively used by those Whitehaar b*stards!”

Breathing a sigh of relief now that she knew that her master believed her, Zianne took the chance to hand Fayth the medicinal herbs—that she had stored safely in the inner layer of her clothes—before saying, “Speaking of which… here are the herbs you told me to buy, master!”

Nodding in response, Fayth then replied, “Thank you… Regardless, since you’ve already suffered enough, there won’t be any additional punishments! Come with me… and you as well, kind warrior! We’ll have a talk inside!”

Fayth, for one, wasn’t an unreasonable person, and she made sure to cast apologetic gazes at both Zianne and Gerald.

After hearing what their master had to say, the other disciples immediately began leaving the scene, though a few stayed to help Yoona up.

Yoona herself had a bitter expression on her face. To think that Zianne would escape punishment…!

Whatever the case was, Zianne and Gerald were promptly led into their abbey’s great hall…

Once inside, Fayth retrieved a bottle of ointment and handed it to Zianne before saying in a caring tone, “Here, this will help treat your wounds. Apply it for a few days and your wounds will be gone in no time!”

“Thank you, master!” replied Zianne almost instantaneously.

With that done, Fayth then gestured for both of them to sit as she asked, “Alright then… Now that that’s settled… May I know your name, young warrior?”

“I go by Gerald Crawford!” replied Gerald.

“A fine name… Regardless, I apologize for misunderstanding you earlier, Warrior Crawford! I hope you’ll forgive me for that. Also, thank you for saving my eldest disciple today!” said Fayth in an apologetic tone. “Don’t worry about it, Madam. I was only doing what was right. There was just no way I could ignore the fact that five men were attacking a single woman!” replied Gerald rather modestly.

“Speaking of which, could you perhaps be a foreigner…? After all, from your speech patterns and the way you look, you don’t seem to be a local… In fact, it feels like you don’t even come from our world! I wonder if I’m right about that…” asked Fayth.

“Well… let’s just say that I come from a far-off land!” replied Gerald with a chuckle.

“I see… Whatever the case is, I have to admit that your skills are astounding… Could I know who your master is…?” said Fayth who seemed to be trying to investigate further into his background.

After all, how had such a young man attained such a high level of cultivation?

“About that… My master told me never to reveal his identity to anyone… Due to that, I apologize in advance, Madam!” replied Gerald as he came up with an excuse on the spot.

After all, there was no way he could tell her that he had come from another world, right? Then again, even if he did tell her, she probably wouldn’t have believed him…

“I understand… Regardless, Zianne! Lead Warrior Crawford to one of our rooms so that he can take a rest…” instructed Fayth, no longer trying to pry any further. Hearing that, Zianne quickly nodded before leading Gerald out of the great hall…

Shortly after, the duo arrived at a small house… This was where Gerald was going to stay the night.

This was the first time a man had ever been allowed to stay the night in the abbey, so the Purplefog disciples were understandably surprised by their master’s decision. Still, they knew better than to question her, so they simply went on with their day…

After a good night’s rest, Gerald got up early to bid farewell to Zianne and Fayth. After all, he still had an important task to do, and he didn’t want to waste any more time here.

Besides, he was the sole male in an abbey full of women, and knowing that made him feel increasingly awkward the longer he stayed there.

Whatever the case was, after leaving the abbey, Gerald soon came across a town known as Heavencloud Town…

It was around then that he realized that he had one major issue. He didn’t have any local currency! All he had on him was money that could only be used on earth and a dead phone that was as functional as a brick now… How annoying!

Still, he did recall Zianne paying—for his clothes—yesterday with some blue stones…

Those holy stones were probably this realm’s form of currency. But where could he get them? Without any, he couldn’t even buy himself breakfast! Just as Gerald was wondering how to get around this issue, the corner of his eye noticed a thin man—who seemed to be muttering every profanity in the book—getting dragged into an alley by three other men.

This was his ticket to breakfast!

Quickly heading to the alley, Gerald saw that the thin man was already getting beaten up by the trio!

Immediately stepping into the alley, Gerald then shouted, “Halt!”

Hearing that, the men then turned around… But when they saw Gerald, they didn’t look afraid at all. In fact, they had scowls on their faces as they yelled, “Huh? Who the hell even are you? Get lost and mind your own business!”

“I’m saying it one final time. Stop all this!” retorted Gerald as he pointed at them.

“You asking for trouble, kid? Fine then! Let’s beat him up!” yelled one of the men, prompting all three of them to charge toward Gerald!

Despite being outnumbered, it didn’t change the fact that these men were nothing before Gerald.

It barely took him a second to pummel all three of them to the ground!

To think that Gerald was this strong… If they had known earlier, they wouldn’t have provoked him in the first place! Whatever the case was, once they were done groaning in pain, the leader of the group looked up to Gerald before begging, “P-please spare us, big brother…! We know we’ve done wrong so please let us go…!”

Scoffing in response, Gerald simply warned, “If I ever catch you three bullying others again, I’ll make sure to have your heads.”

“L-loud and clear!” whimpered all three of them as they quickly bolted away…

None of them dared to stay there for a second longer for fear that Gerald would suddenly change his mind…

With the trio now gone, Gerald then walked up to the thin man and helped him up.

“T-thank you for saving me, brother…! I, Yale Zachrey, am indebted to you!” said the man.

“Don’t worry about it. I just happened to see you getting bullied while passing by, and there was no way I was going to leave without helping! Regardless, if you feel indebted, why don’t you just treat me to breakfast and we’ll call it even?” replied Gerald with a smile as he patted Yale on the back.
