Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1299

“That’s enough! Lock her up in her room, and be sure to guard her closely! From today onward, she’s prohibited

from leaving her room!” shouted Yreth. Hearing that, a few guards ran over and instantly led Yume to her room, as

per Lady Gunter’s orders.

Now that her granddaughter had been taken care of, Yreth was confident that she would be able to gain what she

wanted from Gerald.

Gerald himself was now swiftly running away from the cave in the dark of night. After learning more about the

three groups’ plans to capture him, he didn’t dare linger around for any more than he needed to.

His current plan was to first find Chester then leave this place together with him.

However, just as he was about to leave the suburbs—and re-enter the city area—Gerald suddenly heard rustling

sounds coming from the surrounding forests.

From how loud and swift the rustling was, one would normally assume that it was some kind of extremely fast

animal. However, Gerald had a gut feeling that that was no animal. Stopping in his tracks, Gerald then went into

high alert to figure out what—or who—he was dealing with.

If he was going to be completely honest, Gerald now felt like the temperature had just plummeted. Whatever was

out there, it was sending intense chills down his spine.

‘What—or who—on earth is targeting me this time…?’ Gerald thought to himself as endless beads of sweat rolled

down his forehead. The fear he was currently feeling was almost primal in nature, and it was unlike anything he had

previously felt.

Eventually, Gerald slowly raised his head… And there, he was.

Standing under the faint moonlight—atop a close-by tree—was a towering and sturdy-looking man who had his

arms crossed as he stared down at Gerald. While the man’s face was a purplish-black and his lips a dark shade of

purple, his eyes gleamed in scarlet hues. Adding that to the fact that darkness just seemed to exude from that

man, Gerald could only describe him as corpse-like!

As he continued staring at Gerald without moving a muscle, Gerald himself now knew the source of all his fear. It

was as though his entire being was being suppressed just from the sight of that imposing man alone.

In his terrified state, Gerald found himself taking a few steps back before saying, “…Hogan?”

The second he said that, Gerald watched wide-eyed as Hogan’s massive body leaped into the air… and landed

gently atop a fragile-looking branch! While that alone was impressive enough, Gerald barely even had the time to

react as Hogan used the slight rebound of the branch to launch himself at Gerald at lightning speed!

Being more accustomed to danger than others, Gerald quickly snapped out of his daze and instantly began

attempting to retreat!

Before Gerald could even get far, however, he felt a massive tremor as Hogan landed heavily on the ground!

Turning back to look, Gerald watched as Hogan spread out his arms and revealed both of his hands…

The tips of Hogan’s fingernails looked as sharp as a hungry wolf’s fangs, and in a way, it almost felt like Hogan had

iron claws instead of actual hands. What more, a strange darkness seemed to be enveloping both of Hogan’s

hands.

At that moment, Gerald realized that Yume hadn’t been exaggerating at all. Hogan truly was more of a weapon

than an actual human at this point. A weapon brought to life by reanimating a corpse.

“Running away? From me? I’ll say it now that it won’t be easy, boy! Now come with me! My master and Lady Gunter

are waiting for you!” said Hogan before screeching in a way that resembled a crow’s cry.

Watching as Hogan then immediately—and swiftly—began walking toward him, Gerald quickly activated his inner

strength. Fully ready to lose his artifact, as he commanded in his mind, ‘Dawnbreaker!’

With that, the black short blade came to life.

Since Hogan’s entire body almost seemed to be completely plated with iron, Gerald felt that his only means of

fighting against that hulking man was by using the Dawnbreaker.

Regardless, the blade then shot out of Gerald’s sleeve at almost breakneck speed, aimed right for Hogan’s neck!

To Gerald’s utter horror, the usually trusty Dawnbreaker wasn’t even close to posing a threat to Hogan. After all, the

massive man had simply pinched the blade between two of his claw-like fingers like it was nothing!

Tossing the blade to the ground, Hogan then grunted before coldly saying, “I told you to come with me!”

‘This… This person is far too strong…!’ Gerald thought to himself, his sheer disbelief evident on his face.

However, Hogan was done waiting. Gerald could only see Hogan’s blurry figure as the giant of a man began rushing

toward Gerald at immense speed!

The next thing Gerald knew, a huge and powerful-looking hand was inches away from his stomach…
