Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1606
“Oh? Why is that?” asked Gerald rather curiously
“Well, you see, Henrick hasn’t completed his training on the Five Blazing Dragons attack! He’s still one level short!
With that in mind, the only reason you ended up getting this seriously hurt is because he’s already entered the Sage
Realm! Though I can see that you’re already nearing the end of the Rune Realm, I don’t think I have to remind you
that a Ninth-rank Chakra King and a Sage’s power is still vastly different!” explained the tree spirit.
“…So… that attack wasn’t what hurt me? I only got all these injuries due to our strength difference?” asked Gerald
rather quickly.
“That’s right! If you need further proof, being hurt by a fully mastered Five Blazing Dragons attack would’ve
definitely reduced you to nothing but dust! The fact that you’re still in one piece says a lot about that!” replied the
tree spirit.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“…I see. Still, you appear to know quite a bit about the attack and even Henrick… Who exactly are you, if you don’t
mind me asking…?” asked Gerald, sensing that something was amiss.
After all, it was a wonder why a tree spirit would know so much about outside affairs…
“Hmm? Well of course I’d know him well! Henrick’s my junior!” replied the tree spirit with a chuckle.
Upon hearing that, Gerald was instantly stunned.
“What? He’s your junior? But aren’t you…?”
“Ah, just to clarify, I wasn’t always a tree spirit! Back then, I had fought a great battle with Henrick in the
Underworld Valley as well! However, due to my carelessness, Henrick found a chance to launch a completely
avoidable sneak attack on me! As a result, I lost the battle… After being tossed into the valley’s abyss, my soul
somehow got integrated with a tree spirit within this deep valley. With that said, I’ll be staying here for a while!
However, know that my resentment toward Henrick hasn’t diminished in the slightest!” detailed the tree spirit who
clearly despised Henrick with a passion.
Quickly putting two and two together, Gerald then asked, “From what you’ve told me, both you and Henrick share a
master, correct? Why did you end up fighting each other? What exactly did Henrick have his eyes on…? Could it be
that…”
“I have to say that you’re really smart, mister! As you may already have guessed, Henrick was after my Five Blazing
Dragons attack! I say ‘my’ since at the time, I was the only one capable of using it after master imparted it to me.
The fact that he wasn’t chosen naturally fuelled his jealousy, and since then, he would constantly attempt to obtain
the secret scroll of the Five Blazing Dragons—that I kept within me—in order to train for it.”
“While he did succeed in the end, I had one last trick up my sleeve! I made sure to hide the last part of the scroll in
the deepest parts of my body, which was why Henrick only managed to get his hands on an incomplete scroll!”
sneered the tree spirit as he thought about it.
After hearing all that, it explained why the tree spirit knew so much about Henrick and the Five Blazing Dragons. As
it turned out, Henrick was the original heir to the attack!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Again, since he hasn’t been able to complete his training for the Five Blazing Dragons attack, I assure you that you
were only hurt due to his strength!” added the tree spirit.
“…Understood! Speaking of which, could I have your name…?” asked Gerald, curious about the tree spirit’s real
name after hearing all that.
“Of course! It’s Roman Freeman!”
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Freeman! I’m Gerald!” introduced Gerald.
“Hahaha! I have a feeling that fate had a role in our meeting, mister! With that said, I’m willing to impart the
complete Five Blazing Dragons attack to you on one condition! What do you say?” replied Roman with a subtle
smile.
“Go on, Mr. Freeman! I’ll definitely try my best to fulfill it!” replied Gerald, overjoyed that Roman was willing to teach
the technique to him in the first place.
Aside from the fact that he was going to master an attack that would surely be able to take Henrick out with ease,
Gerald’s enthusiastic reply also stemmed from the fact that he wanted to repay Roman’s kindness for saving him.
With that in mind, he was fully ready to agree to any of Roman’s conditions.
