    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 998


    “Well, back then, the lord himself was feeling troubled by his inner demons. As a result, he searched


    high and low for a way to better control his temperament. After all, he was fully aware that until he


    could easily and skillfully manage the blessings of the dragon, he wasn’t going to be able to truly


    achieve the status of a legend.


    “He began by visiting several monks and other religious people. The lord secretly went to Weston as


    well to search for a few renowned masters in hopes that he would be able to gain more insight into his


    issue. However, it wasn’t all that long after his search began when one day, the lord ended up killing


    someone on the spot just because the person said something wrong!”


    “Due to that, he stopped trying to seek out help out of fear that he would end up killing another innocent


    person. Oddly enough, he found the answer to his question himself one day. In his moment of


    enlightenment, he sealed his strength away and reverted to living life as a regr human. Once that


    happened, he looked just like a lonely, old man. The lord kept a low profile for quite a while but once he


    perfected his skills, he broke the seal again, and from then on out, he knew he had truly be one of


    the legends.”


    “Since this way of doing things will require an extremely high resolution, it isn’t exactly for everyone.


    However, since you’ve led a poor life before and you’re an actual kind-hearted person, I think you


    should give it a try,” exined Welson.


    Hearing that, Gerald nodded slightly before replying, “Well, Grandpa did teach me a method to seal my


    strength… I’ll do it. After all, I’ll be trying my best to stay away from disputes and fights anyway since I


    don’t have the holy blood yet. Besides, by sealing all that power, I should be able to manage my


    strength with greater ease sooner. With any luck, I’ll be able to enter the mysterious realms of legends


    earlier as well.”


    “Thank you for the suggestion, Welson!” added Gerald as he smiled.


    As soon as his sentence ended, however, a knock came from the door. After getting permission from


    Gerald to enter, Yukie immediately rushed in before saying, “Sir!”


    “What’s wrong, Yukie?”


    “I… I heard that you’re leaving again… Is that really true?” asked Yukie.


    “Indeed it is,” replied Gerald with a subtle smile.


    “I… see… Could I at least know where you’re headed to?” asked Yukie again as her eyes grew slightly


    teary.


    From the moment she had met Gerald and was given permission to leave alongside the other maids,


    Yukie had given all her heart to Gerald.


    She had missed him dearly throughout his half-year absence, and now that he was finally back, she


    found it difficult to just ept that he would be leaving again so soon.


    “I’ll be heading over to the Logan Province!” replied Gerald.


    “The… Logan Province…?”


    The moment Yukie heard that, she averted her gaze for a second as both her hands became slightly


    restless.


    As the two men wondered why those two words unsettled her so much, Yukie took in a deep breath


    before saying, “…Could I please be allowed toe along, sir? I really don’t want to leave you


    anymore!”


    “You can’t Yukie. He will have to travel separately from us to get there anyway. What more, if a beauty


    like you stays by his side, you may attract the attention of viinous characters! As a result, he may


    have to unseal his strength to save you, causing the entire effort to be wasted! Which is why you’re not


    allowed toe along,” replied Welson as he shook his head.


    “Well… You’ll eventually still need to meet up with each other again, right? When that happens,


    someone needs to be by sir’s side to take good care of him! No offense, but could you be more


    sensible and considerate than a woman, Mr. Freed?” said Yukie in reply.


    Welson was speechless after hearing that. After a while, he simply shook his head beforeughing


    bitterly.


    “I suppose what you said did make sense… However, if you’reing along, you’ll have to follow us.


    You’re not allowed to disturb the young master’s endeavor to quietly discipline himself. If you refuse to


    agree to that, then you can’te along,” said the old man.


    “I… I agree!” replied Yukie as she smiled broadly.


    And just like that, the affair was decided there and then.


    That afternoon, Gerald returned to Weston before getting on a green train to the Logan Province.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    The journey itself took two whole days, and Gerald finally stepped out of the train on the morning of the


    third day.


    Feeling hungry, Gerald then headed to a small restaurant that had been built along the train station.


    As soon as he opened the door to the restaurant, however, he immediately heard a man’s voice saying,


    “Just order whatever you want, sisters! Everything will be on me!”


    Following the source of the voice, Gerald saw a man and two women seated at a table. With all three of


    them looking equally charming, it was no wonder why they had attracted the attention of several of the


    restaurant’s customers as well.


    As the man smiled on, one of the women simply replied, “Are you the only rich one here? Regardless,


    we’ve had enough fun out there so it’s high time we return home. Otherwise, we may end up getting


    scolded or even punished!”


    “That’s quite enough… We’re already back here anyway after all that fun, right?” said the other woman


    as she too, smiled.


    “…Hmm? Say sister, look over there… That’s the young man who sat beside us on the train earlier,


    right…?” said the same woman as she pointed at the man standing at the door.
