Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1404
Hearing the giant snake say that, Gerald intensified his force, delivering more essential qi as he shouted, “I’m not
letting you die like this…!”
“…Heh… To think that I’d actually be able to make a friend after so long… And such a caring one at that… Thank
you…” muttered the now tiny orb of green as it slowly began floating higher…
Almost like fireflies taking flight in the night, the thought of the anaconda’s soul rose higher, and higher, until
eventually, it scattered in a sea of glittering sparkles…
As the final sparkles faded, Gerald found himself clenching his fists tightly. While he had only met the giant
anaconda once before this, it had previously helped him. What more, the snake had even sacrificed the thought of
its soul just to warn him about that masked old man… By that point, Gerald had already considered the snake to be

In the end, however, he was completely useless in that situation. The soul had completely disappeared, and there
was nothing he could have done to prevent it from happening.
The fact that Gerald had even lost Liemis’s corpse only served to make him want to beat himself up badly. Quite
honestly, he didn’t even feel like showing his face to anyone at the moment due to his immense guilt and shame.
“Worry not, I don’t blame you for any of this, Gerald… Maybe it’s just my fate, and with that in mind, please don’t
feel guilty over this incident… Whatever the case is, we need to leave for the Crawford Manor, quickly. After all,
since the tomb ended up just like how the Mackusion had predicted, I’m truly worried that your family will end up
getting attacked as well!” said Zyla.
Hearing that, both Gerald and Peter’s gazes instantly turned anxious.
“Remember, the Mackusion had displayed a black light enshrouding the eerily silent ancient tomb back then… And
the same atmosphere was present in the Crawford Manor that it showed us! With that in mind, we need to rush to
your home right this instant, Gerald…!” added Zyla.
As Peter’s eyelids twitched, the worried Gerald knew that all she had just said was right. From what the snake had
told him, the murderer knew him very well. With that in mind, it was safe to assume that the masked man also
knew about his family…
Now anxious out of his wits, he knew he couldn’t allow something similar to happen to his family too…!
Following that, Zyla quickly arranged for Leo to stay back and bury the giant anaconda’s carcass. After that, he was
to safely escort Jasmine and the other women all the way back to Northbay.
As for Gerald, Zyla, and Peter, the trio immediately headed for the Crawford Manor first.
Given their capabilities, it would only take about a few hours for Gerald and the two others to reach the Crawford
Manor in Northbay.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
Throughout his journey there, he couldn’t help but wonder how Lyra, Queta, and Giya—who had been recuperating
in the Crawford Manor the last time he met them—were currently doing.
He also found himself considering the security of the Crawford Manor. While it was true that those from the Soul
Palace were currently guarding the place, that masked man had been able to kill that giant anaconda with barely
any trouble. With that in mind, Gerald was worried that if the masked old man had any bad intentions toward his
family, nobody at the manor would be able to stop him!
Regardless, after flying for a while, Gerald shouted, “The manor’s on the island up ahead!”
Since Gerald had slightly higher training than the other two, he was the first to land on the island. However, he was
already worried the second he set foot there. After all, despite the island being so massive, there wasn’t a single
soul around. The entire place was simply devoid of its usual hustle and bustle…
The dead silence was also quite eerie…
Could the Mackusion truly have predicted his family’s misfortune as accurately as it had foreseen the events at the
ancient tomb…?
Feeling his qi rising as his agitation and anxiousness peaked, his legs now felt like they were made of lead as he
slowly stepped past the large entrance doors of the Crawford Manor…
