Chapter 795
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 795
“…P-professor Shevall? Professor Shevall…?” called out M in a soft tone.
“Hmm? What’s wrong, M?” asked the professor as he looked at her with a gentle gaze and smile.
“A… symbol of some sort seems to have appeared on your neck…”
Under different circumstances, M would’ve just assumed that the symbol was just rash from all the
professor’s scratching. However, the symbol looked far too familiar for it to simply be rash.
“…A symbol? What could you possibly be talking about, M?” asked Professor Shevall as a bitter
smile formed on his face.
It was at that moment when M became certain that it wasn’t just mere rashes on the professor’s
neck. Rather, the symbol on his neck was one that she recognized.
It looked exactly like the sun symbol on her pendant!
“It… It looks exactly like the symbol on the pendants we received!” said M, now getting increasingly
frightened.
Hearing that, the others present began looking at each other before each fishing out their own
pendants from their pockets. All of the pendants looked exactly alike.
“So it turns out that everyone received it!” said Molly.
Upon realizing that everyone was familiar with the symbol, Professor Shevall’s expression immediately
changed. Snatching the pendant from M’s hand, he gave it a good look before scanning through the
other pendants held by the rest of the investigation team members.
Not long after, his face went white as a sheet.
“…M, is the symbol on my neck truly simr to the one on the pendants?” asked the professor who
looked like he had just experienced the worst day of his life.

Not knowing what was happening, M could only nod slightly.
“D*mn it! And here I thought that the symbol was only reserved for the most important of members! I
didn’t expect everyone here to have it!”
“What exactly does the symbol represent, professor? I received it yesterday through mail!”
Seeing how unpleasant Professor Shevall’s expression had be, the others were now equally as
scared as M. After all, though there were many of them in the room, they were still out at sea in the
dead of night. The spooky atmosphere was simply inevitable.
“It’s finally appeared again… It seems that we’re its targets this time!” eximed the professor as his
hands trembled.
“…What do you mean by that, Professor Shevall? What’s appeared?” asked M.
“It… It’s all my fault… I’ve put all of you in danger! I’m so sorry!” replied the professor as he removed
his sses, unable to control his emotions any longer.
“That’s… the symbol of the Sun League… The symbol itself is called the Death Pact… It’s appeared
only twice before, the first time being forty years ago while the second, twenty years ago. Well, I should
say thrice now since it’s finally reappeared today! s, everyone ever recorded to have received the
symbol has mysteriously gone missing within three days! It’s been decades since I’ve researched the
incident yet I’ve never gotten even close to uncovering the mystery!” exined Professor Shevall, his
expression extremely terrible.
Hearing what he had to say, everyone soon found themselves quivering in fear. After all, the professor
was extremely knowledgeable and he didn’t seem like the kind of person who would make jokes like
that in the first ce.
It didn’t help that his expression remained dead serious throughout his strange exnation.
“Cease the investigation! We’re turning back immediately!” ordered the professor as he immediately
stood up.
Not long after someone ran off to ry his order, the same person burst into the room again before
shouting, “P-professor Shevall! Something… Something’s gone terribly wrong…!”
“borate!”
“Just… Pleasee outside and have a look for yourself! It’s right in front of the liner…” replied the
person, nowpletely out of breath.
Professor Shevall then quickly led the investigation team members out of the conference room,
bringing all of them to the ship’s deck.
Naturally, M and Molly followed the group, huddled closely together to keep each other calm.
Upon arriving at the deck, everyone was immediately stunned. Molly even found herself screaming
once she realized what was brewing outside.
A massive maelstrom had formed in the sea, and the ship was heading straight for it! Close up, it
looked exactly like arge mouth, devouring everything that crossed its path.
Though the captain was clearly trying to steer the ship away from the menacing whirlpool, the liner
simply couldn’t win against the strong forces of the maelstrom.
“Return to the cabins immediately!” shouted the professor just as a loud crash could be heard.
