Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2011

Hearing that, Gerald was immediately prompted to say, “Thank you, Young Master Homewood!”

Honestly, Gerald had thought that Levi would be a little more reluctant. After all, this was their first meeting. As it turned out, Levi was quite the generous person!

“You’re being way too polite, brother Crawford! In exchange, however, I do have one small request that I hope you can fulfill!” replied Levi.

“Go on, Young Master Homewood!”

“Essentially, I hope that you won’t go easy on me should we end up having to duel in the competition!”

“Deal!” replied Gerald, who was already planning to do that anyway. After all, he wanted to have a taste of how strong the Homewood Sword Technique actually was.

Now that Levi had specifically asked for it, Gerald knew he didn’t have to hold back any longer… It truly was a win-win situation.

Regardless, the trio then continued having jovial conversations till they finished their meals. As promised, Levi took the duo to his family’s smithery right after lunch.

The smithery itself was a landmark in Shontell, with the building looking like a gigantic sword that had been stabbed into the ground. As if that wasn’t already impressive enough, the massive workshop inside was optimized to provide constant stocks to all the sword-selling shops in Shontell…

Moving back to the trio, with the smithery in sight, Yalinda’s eyes instantly widened as she exclaimed, “Oh boy! This is the first time looking at the smithery up-close!”

Naturally, not many were granted access into the smithery. Aside from workers and family members of the Homewood family, anyone else would need to have proof of their identity before being allowed to enter, which explained why Yalinda had never even come close to the building after living in Shontell for so long.

Since they had Levi leading their way, however, Gerald and Yalinda had no problems entering…

Once inside, the two were immediately amazed by how hot and steamy everything was! With endless ‘clanking’ of metal getting hammered all around, it was evident that the workers were serious with their craft. It truly was a remarkable scene…

Gerald, for one, figured that people of old—back on earth—must have manufactured swords like this as well…

Looking at Gerald, Levi then asked, “Come have a look here, brother Gerald! What do you think?”

“Amazing is the only word I can think of at the moment… Your smithery truly is spectacular!” praised Gerald from the bottom of his heart.

Chuckling in response, Levi then said, “As a trivia, know that my smithery can produce over a thousand high-quality weapons every single day! They’re so sharp that you can easily slice stones with them!”

Following that, Levi then led Gerald and Yalinda to the area where the finished products were stored… and inside, there were at least a hundred swords, with each sword looking different from the other.

Smiling, Levi then declared, “Pick one for yourself, brother Gerald! Consider it my gift to you!”

With Levi smiling so generously as he pointed toward the swords, Gerald saw no reason not to oblige.

To his slight disappointment, however, Gerald couldn’t help but feel that the swords weren’t as good as Levi described them to be. Sure, they were all pretty good, but they were probably only perfect in the eyes of commoners. In other words, none of them were good enough for Gerald’s standards. Still, Gerald knew better than to reject the offer after going through all this. With that, he began carefully observing the swords…

A few minutes later, he finally found one that was a little better than the rest in the pile. At the very least, he would be able to use this as a temporary weapon…

With that, he lifted the sword, showing it to Levi and Yalinda before saying, “I shall choose this one, then!”

“A fine choice, brother Gerald! I hope you’ll use that very sword on the day of our duel!” replied Levi with a laugh.

“But of course!” said Gerald enthusiastically.

Fast forward to that night, Gerald and Yalinda made it back to the delivery house…

There wasn’t exactly a rule that they had to stay in Gardale city, so they saw no reason not to return here. Honestly, the only plus to staying in the city was the fact that if anything happened to them there, the authorities would have to take full responsibility…

Contrarily, if something happened to them outside the city, the consequences would be their own to bear. It was why Clyde had sent his men to kill Gerald once he was outside of the city. Once the deed was done, even if the king and queen of Shontell and Zenon found out about what he did, they wouldn’t be able to hold him accountable…

Whatever the case was, the second the duo entered the delivery house, Yale—who just so happened to be there—instantly leaped into Gerald’s arms before yelling, “Brother Gerald! You’re finally back! It’s been two whole days since we last met! I’ve missed you so much…!”

Raising a slight brow at the childish man, Gerald could only helplessly say, “For heaven’s sake, it’s only been two days! Get a hold of yourself!”

Yalinda herself simply rolled her eyes in annoyance as she added, “You know, instead of simply waiting here, you really should try picking up some simple martial arts! Master can’t protect you all the time, you know?”

True enough, Yale couldn’t just rely on Gerald all the time for protection, and he knew that. Still, Yale couldn’t help but pout, “That… Well, with neither of you here, who could I have even learned from?”

“Simple! Just ask my father for help! Just so you know, he was the one who showed me the ropes!” replied Yalinda.

The moment she said that, Tanner approached them while saying, “Oh? Yalinda! Gerald! You’re back!”

“Father!” yelled Yalinda as she quickly ran over to hug him.

Patting her lovingly, Tanner then asked, “So… How did the competition go, Yalinda?”

Simply sighing in response, Yalinda then said, “I… lost to Levi on my very first battle! I don’t really want to talk about it… However, you should’ve seen how strong master was, father! He took down Clyde with only a single move, you know?”

Chuckling in response, Tanner then replied, “Oh? Impressive! Regardless, losing is just part of the learning process! It’s no big deal! Besides, you only participated to have some fun, right?”

Nodding in response, Yalinda then said, “Speaking of which, father, I need your help with something!”

“Hmm? What is it?” asked Tanner curiously.

“Well, starting tomorrow, I’d like you to start teaching Yale martial arts!”

“Huh? Why so sudden? And why me?” asked the surprised Tanner, clearly not expecting that request from his daughter.

“Yale’s been meaning to learn for a while, but master and I currently have no time to teach him! So… yeah,” replied Yalinda as she shrugged.

After thinking for a while, Tanner then looked at Yale before asking, “Well… Are you willing to learn from me, Yale? While I’m not as powerful as Gerald, I can still teach you the basics!”
