Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1991
Still, just from the way Gerald looked and talked, Kay knew better than to doubt him.
Whatever the case was, seeing that Kay was about to escort them back to Shontell—to ensure that the holy stones
wouldn’t get stolen by other bandits—Tanner took the chance to walk up to Gerald and say, “Speaking of which, are
you headed for Shontell, Mr. Crawford?” “Indeed, we are!” replied Gerald with a nod.
“I see! Then… Why don’t you come with us? After all, I still need to properly thank you for saving us!” suggested
Tanner in a sincere tone.
Chuckling in response, Gerald then said, “You’re being way too cordial, Captain Juans! Regardless, I’d rather not get
in the way of your work! Don’t worry about us, we’ll head there later on our own.”

replied Tanner in a slightly disheartened tone. Still, he wasn’t going to force Gerald to go along with his plan.
With that, Kay, Tanner, and the rest of their men left the scene…
Gerald and Yale themselves only decided to set off once they were done with their meal.
While making their way to Shontell, Yale couldn’t help but ask, “…Um… Why didn’t you accept Captain Juans’s
invitation earlier?”
Yale, for one, felt that Gerald should’ve definitely accepted it. After all, he deserved the reward, and anyone else
would’ve surely been overjoyed—to receive the invitation—and gone along with Tanner’s plan.
Simply laughing in response, Gerald then said, “Didn’t you see the look on General Lucarl’s face just now? He
clearly has trouble believing that I was the one who took all of those scoundrels out! With that in mind, it’s best if
we just go our separate ways to avoid any misunderstandings.” Though Yale now understood Gerald’s point of view,
he still couldn’t help but feel that it was a pity that he had declined. After all, Gerald had let go of what could have
potentially been a major favor from an influential person!
Now, if Tanner had asked him instead, Yale would’ve surely allowed Tanner to properly thank him! Dreaming about
the scenario, Yale felt that Tanner’s appreciation could’ve very well been at least a thousand holy stones!
While Yale was only thinking about riches and fame, the thoughts had barely even crossed Gerald’s mind. He simply
wasn’t that kind of person…
Either way, after walking for a few miles, the two of them finally made it past the city gates of Shontell…
As it turned out, Shontell was just as large as Yale had previously described. The people here definitely lived
prosperously as well, judging from how well-dressed everyone on the street was…

Regardless, as they walked on, Yale suddenly began tugging Gerald’s arm toward a notice board of sorts while
saying, “Brother Gerald! Look there!”
Raising a slight brow, Gerald then looked at the board to see what all the fuss was about… and soon enough, he
saw what Yale was so excited about.
Of the many announcements on the notice board, one of them wrote, ‘Come join the Shontell Martial Arts
Competition! The grand prize is a hundred thousand holy stones!’ Naturally, Gerald knew for a fact that Yale was
just after the holy stones. With that in mind, he turned to look at the skinny man before asking, “A martial arts
competition, huh? What, are you interested in joining, Yale?”
“As if! Jokes aside, you should definitely join, brother Gerald! After all, there’s a hundred thousand holy stones up for
grabs!” replied Yale excitedly.
Still, as if someone like him would ever participate in such a competition! Being so proficient in martial arts, did
Gerald even need to ask? Whatever the case was, if Gerald participated, he would definitely get the grand prize!
To Yale’s dismay, however, Gerald simply said, “Sorry, not interested
“But… But why? With a hundred thousand holy stones on hand, we won’t have to worry about not having enough
ever again!”
