Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1454

Almost everyone in the hall was now screaming in utter terror.

While the old men from before could almost feel their eyeballs popping out in their shock, the flabbergasted Perla

herself was barely able to keep her mouth closed.

The scene happening before them now was truly difficult to swallow…!

“…A-amazing…!” stuttered Master Crawford as he fell feebly to the floor, now entirely drenched in sweat.

With a slight flick of Gerald’s wrist, the golden light disappeared and everything became peaceful again.

Turning to look at the compass, Gerald deduced that it was simply a simple magic artifact that, upon activating, was

capable of displaying terrifying images.

While that was the case, since Master Crawford hadn’t trained his mind for it to be steady enough, he wasn’t able

to use the compass to its full extent. Knowing that only increased Master Crawford’s humiliation.

Smiling subtly, Gerald then tossed the compass aside before looking at the master whose gaze had turned bleak by

this point.

“Now then… Who exactly gave you the courage to deceive all these people?” declared Gerald.

As everyone in the hall quivered from Gerald’s authoritative voice, Master Crawford—who was clearly the recipient

of Gerald’s question—dropped to his knees before replying, “P-please don’t be angry, master…! I was told to wait

for a young man here… As for why I used my magic, it was because that same person who told me to wait ordered

me to protect the Feng Shui of this place and continue burning incense here…!”

The second his sentence ended, several hissing sounds could be heard as multiple people in the hall drew in cold

breaths.

“A young man? Do you have a name?” asked Gerald who already had a good guess of what was happening.

“G-Gerald Crawford! I was told to wait for that young man!” replied Master Crawford quickly.

“And who was it who told you to wait for him? Also, what’s your real name?”

“I-it was my great aunt! And I go by the name of Gus Linstone…!”

After hearing all that Gus had to say, everyone found themselves immensely shocked. However, their shock quickly

turned into rage as they took turns glaring at Gus.

Following that, they then turned to respectfully look at Gerald who now looked more like a deity than anything.

Gerald, however, wasn’t going to waste any more time.

“Order everyone to descend the hill, right this instant!” instructed Gerald.

“R-right away…!” replied Gus as he quickly began driving everyone out.

Soon enough, only Terrance and a few others remained.

Before Gerald could ask Gus for more details, he watched as Terrance knelt before respectfully saying, “Master, I

have a request…!”

As the middle-aged man from before knelt as well, Gerald observed the duo for a while. To think that the old man

was willing to do this despite already having one foot in the grave…

Truth be told, Gerald hadn’t found that old man annoying from the very beginning, so he simply asked, “What is this

about?”

“While my granddaughter has always been rather naughty, she’s always had the heart to train. Unfortunately, she

hasn’t been able to find a suitable teacher at all… Now that we’ve witnessed your remarkable skills, however, I feel

that you’d be the perfect teacher for her…! With that said, I hope you’re willing to take her under your wing!”

replied Terrance, his eyes now teary and reddened.

“…Her?” said Gerald with a frown.

Looking at Gerald’s frown, Perla instantly found herself blushing. After all, she now deeply respected and admired

him after witnessing his true capabilities.

“I’ll have to refuse!” added Gerald as he shook his head.

“B-but why, master…!” asked Terrance rather desperately as Perla felt herself come close to crying.

“She has a terrible temper typical of a rich, young lady! That simply won’t do!” replied Gerald as he casually waved

his hand.

“I-I can change…! I’ll drop this bad attitude immediately…!” exclaimed Perla.

“Change? Haha! If you say so… Look, since you like making things so difficult for people and you think you can just

drop that temper of yours all willy-nilly, why don’t you head to the square and bark like a dog three times? If you do

it properly, I’ll consider taking you under my wing! If you don’t, then just get off the hill like the others already!”

retorted Gerald.

Preoccupied with so many things, Gerald really wasn’t in the mood to take in any disciples.

In fact, had it not been because the old man had knelt before him, Gerald wouldn’t even have bothered listening to

his request.

Regardless, he felt that what he had told Perla to do was the easiest way for him to get her off his back.

To his surprise, however, Perla only hesitated for a brief moment before dashing toward the square…
