Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1720

Gerald inquired, “What on earth is this…?”

“…First and foremost, this location is known as Fishgut Cave, and within this stone pillar is an ancient longsword

known as the Fishgut Sword,” Old Hughes explained to Gerald.

“…The… Fishgut Sword?” says the narrator. Gerald was perplexed to hear such an unusual name for a longsword.

Old Hughes then retrieved a rolled-up parchment from beneath his coat. When Gerald unfolded it in front of him,

the first image he saw was of a handsome, strong man and an elderly-looking man standing together in a location

that looked strikingly similar to where they were now… It was, without a doubt, depicting both of them in Fishgut

Cave!

“Is that… us?” Gerald, who was now completely perplexed, inquired.

Hughes replied, slowly revealing a wry grin, “Bingo.” It shows both of us standing in the same place…

I knew I was destined to lead someone here when I first discovered this parchment and saw its contents… And now,

at long last, you’re here!”

Gerald, understandably, was taken aback by the situation. Gerald could tell that this wasn’t a bluff because of how

serious Old Hughes was looking at him.

What a strange coincidence that the parchment depicted their current situation so accurately!

“…What exactly is going on here, Old Hughes?” Gerald, perplexed, didn’t want to be left in the dark any longer.

What was the inspiration for the drawing? What exactly was this location? And what was the significance of the

longsword in front of him?

“To put it bluntly, Gerald, you’re doomed! I’m sure you’re the one who’s destined to draw the sword from the stone

pillar because the drawing depicts me bringing you here!” exclaimed Old Hughes.

“…Me?” Are you certain…? Isn’t it possible that it’s someone else…?” Gerald responded, slightly taken aback by Old

Hughes’ claim.

“Since I got this drawing, my boy, I’ve been waiting for you here.

If you’re not the one, please explain why we’re here today. It was only a matter of time before we met!” In

response, Old Hughes stated.

“Ah, I see. So… “What makes the Fishgut Sword so unique?” Gerald finally gave in and looked at the sword within

the stone pillar, which piqued his interest…

When Old Hughes heard the question, he looked the youth in the eyes and said, “The Fishgut Sword is an ancient

longsword said to grant its wielder waterbending abilities.”

I’m sure you’re the only one qualified to use it in the first place, since you’re the person depicted on the map!”

Gerald could tell the old man wasn’t lying by his serious expression. Old Hughes, on the other hand, didn’t have

much of a reason to lie about such things in the first place.

“…All right, then… So, since I’m going to have to draw the sword, how should I go about it?” Gerald enquired.

Hearing this, the old man grabbed Gerald’s arm and pulled him toward a stone…

Gerald noticed that a palm print had been carved into it…

Old Hughes commanded, “Place your hand on it!”

Gerald, slightly taken aback by the sudden shout, simply did as he was told before returning his gaze to the old man

and asking, “…Like this?”

“Hush!” exclaimed Old Hughes, prompting Gerald to cover his mouth with his hands.

They could hear the gurgling of water flowing into the cave now that they were both silent…

Both of them stood there watching as streams of water began to flow up the stone Gerald was holding, all of them

reaching for the palm-shaped indent…
