Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1505
With that, Gerald then followed Xaverie as she led him someplace…
He found himself slightly surprised when he realized that she had simply wanted him to help her carry a parrot.
Though the parrot distinctly knew how to mimic human speech, it hadn’t said a word upon arriving there for some
odd reason.
Recalling that Yagrorok was afraid of Gerald too back then, Xaverie deduced that the bird must have simply been
too terrified to speak within Gerald’s presence! It was exactly because of that that she was asking his help to carry
it.
Not wanting to be further pestered by Xaverie, Gerald simply shook his head at the comment before agreeing to
help with a nod.
“Still, to think that you were actually able to get acquainted with the Quantocks! Regardless, you really have to
thank me this time, Gerald! For context, carrying this parrot isn’t the only reason I called you over…” said Xaverie in
a slow tone after both of them descended into the underground area.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Oh? What do you mean by that?” asked Gerald with a curious smile.
“You may not be aware of this, but the Quantocks and the Waddys have held grudges against each other for quite a
while now… What I’m trying to say is that the Waddys will definitely notice that you’re with the Quantocks… In other
words, you’re pretty much sentencing yourself to death!” replied Xaverie in a slightly bitter tone.
“…Oh? So, this is what you wanted to tell me? Hahaha! I guess I really do owe you my thanks for warning me!” said
Gerald with a smile.
“Why are you being so concerned for this loser, Xaverie? Could you have fallen for him?” teased one of her friends
as the rest of the girls in the group snickered while covering their mouths.
“What utter nonsense! There’s no way in hell that I’d fall for him!” replied Xaverie in a defeated tone.
Though she said that, Xaverie honestly had a pretty good impression on Gerald. After all, he was a nice and
extremely kind man.
Regardless, Xaverie and her group of friends were permitted entry into the entire Heartstone Manor since they
benefited from being acquainted with the Waddys. With that said, once they were in the underground seating area,
they quickly found the perfect place to take their seats. Even Gerald was able to sit relatively close to the main
stage since he was now associated with Xaverie.
Quite frankly, he had initially planned to leave after helping her. However, after realizing that Xaverie had called
him over for his own good, he had a change of heart.
In addition, he now had access to better seats, meaning that he was going to be able to get a closer look at the
formal showdowns between exceptional people—who were training to attain spiritual enlightenment—for the first
time!
Either way, now that he was seated, Gerald began looking around the gigantic annular venue.
Right in the middle, was a high platform where the battles would take place. From what he had been told, there
were over thirty families participating in the battles, and they could all be seen sitting below the high platform now.
While the families appeared to treat the Waddys with utmost respect, undercurrents naturally existed among them.
After all, all the present families definitely understood how important this festival was, which meant that they were
all most probably secretly competing against each other.
Regardless, from what Gerald could observe, he deduced that the only families who held true strength among the
others were the Waddys and the Laidlers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs for the remaining families, he had a pretty good hunch that they were simply being controlled by those training
to attain spiritual enlightenment. While that was the case, none of the puppet masters appeared to be anywhere as
strong as Stetson, and Gerald’s assumption turned out to be correct.
One by one, they were mercilessly defeated by Stetson almost immediately upon entering the ring.
As the fights went on, Yaakov felt that something was off. He knew Stetson’s capabilities well, and by right, he was
only a First-rank Master… Even so, wasn’t he defeating too many of the other similarly ranked masters a bit too
easily? How had he managed to increase his strength so rapidly within that short amount of time?
Could he have managed to surpass that rank…?
Yaakov could only continue staring in astonishment as yet another old man fell off the high platform, swiftly
defeated by Stetson.
The old man himself quickly got to his feet and bowed respectfully before Stetson while saying, “I’m now utterly
convinced that you young people have surpassed our generation!”
Watching as the old man quickly left after saying that, Yaakov could hardly calm himself anymore. He was simply
too strong!
“Was the power to rule finally going to the Laidlers this year…?”
