Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1127

Emitting a bright light, Gerald could feel the power within the stone, even from afar.

“What a truly amazing object!” muttered Gerald to himself, overjoyed.

However, the moment he was about to take the water repellent stone, Gerald’s ears suddenly heard the sound of a

rope being dropped from one of the upper tunnels.

…A person?

Seconds later, Gerald heard as the unknown person began sliding down the rope. With that, Gerald quickly hid in a

corner to see who it was.

It wasn’t long after before a woman jumped down. The moment she saw the water repellent stone, she

immediately smiled before clapping her hands.

“So it really is here! I can finally set off once I get my hands on the stone!” said the woman to herself in a soft tone.

“…It’s her?” whispered Gerald to no one in particular as he continued watching her from the corner he had been

hiding it.

The girl in question was of course, Yume!

After descending Langvern Mountain, Gerald had returned to Yarne Manor to discuss a few more matters with

Wagner. It was around then when a maid notified him that Yume had already left.

While Gerald already knew that the girl was quite extraordinary since she knew quite a bit of martial arts, he truly

hadn’t expected for her to also be looking for the water repellent stone! Actually, it was amazing enough that she

knew where to find it in the first place!

Thinking about it, Gerald couldn’t help but smile slightly bitterly. Never could he have imagined that he would

actually end up accidentally saving his rival’s life!

Just as he was wondering how he should confront her, he suddenly heard a terrifying screech.

Yume herself had had her hand inches away from the water repellent stone when she heard the deafening screech.

Looking up, she immediately saw a massive and terrifying black shadow swooping down at her from above!

As the shadow continued making unnerving sounds, Yume quickly fell back and rolled to the side to avoid the

shadow. In doing so, however, she was unable to get her hands on the stone.

By then, she had already identified that the shadowy figure had belonged to a bat. However, this wasn’t any regular

bat. It was a giant bat that was even larger than an average human!

With its head about the same size as a human’s, its most striking characteristics were its long, overflowing red hair

and its exposed fangs. Together, these features made it look similar to a human with an incredibly hideous face.

Saliva dripping out its grinning mouth, the bat looked at Yume with its vicious eyes before letting out another ear-

splitting shriek!

Following that, it leaped at her with immense speed and power!

While she was able to avoid the bat’s front paw attack, Yume failed to dodge its tail wing attack in time! As a result,

she was hit right in the chest which sent her flying!

Crashing hard onto the ground, Yume could feel her wounds start to hurt again as she felt some blood seeping out

of her abdomen.

The bat itself wasn’t going to give Yume any time to recover. Stomping menacingly toward the injured girl, it

appeared to be enjoying the thought of soon having a delicious meal.

‘…Am… am I truly going to die here…? That stupid Master Ghost! I shouldn’t have believed in his words earlier! If I

make it out alive, I’m burning his church down if it’s the last thing I do! Otherwise, he’ll only continue deceiving

others! To think that he’d actually say that my marriage would be…’

As Yume thought to herself, she remembered how she had immediately descended the mountain before directly

heading to the Minshall family’s ancestral mine to obtain the water repellent stone.

Everything was going so well too… To think that she was actually going to die here being eaten alive by this beast…

It made her feel sick even thinking about it.

Taking in a deep breath, Yume quickly unsheathed her dagger before pointing it at herself. Eyes closed and ready to

end her own life, she first muttered, “I’m sorry, grandma… I was unable to complete the task you left for me! I’m

truly sorry for being unable to head to the king of the ocean’s palace!”

Before she could plunge the blade into herself, she heard the giant bat screeching again!

…Only to be followed by the sound of something heavy hitting the ground?

Opening her eyes, Yume found herself staring in disbelief at the dead beast that now lay before her. It… was dead?

But how?

It was then when Gerald finally revealed his presence while saying, “It seems that I’ve saved your life again,

beauty!”
