Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1076
Upon walking over to have a look for himself, he had to agree with her on how strange they looked.
From what he could see, the murals depicted how the people living here back then went about with
their lives. However, some of the people that were painted looked extremely odd.
To put it simply, the murals seemed to be telling a story. Upon closer inspection, they seemed to tell the
tale of the items that had been hidden in this stone room.
Noticing the Giya was also looking intently at the murals, Gerald then asked, “Do you understand what
the murals are trying to say, Giya?”
“…W-what? What… did you just call me?” asked Giya as she immediately came to her senses and
stared at Gerald, a nk expression on her face.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
“…Why, Giya of course! I didn’t get your name wrong, did I? After all, I’ve heard quite a few people
calling you that by this point!”
“…Y-you got it right… My name’s Giya, yes…” replied Giya as she felt her heart quivering slightly.
Shaking the feeling off, she then replied, “…I’m able to understand some of them… But the tale they
tell is rather odd… The first mural here seems to say that something… incredibly odd happened, to say
the least… From what I can gather, apparently strange corpses fell from the sky!”
“All the corpses were wearing odd-looking clothes as well, and they each bore strange appearances.
The corpses seemed to have suffered a miserable death before falling from the sky… Regardless, it
caused quite a stir back then since the locals were all superstitious. They believed that the corpses
were heavenly soldiers, so they nned to build them a tomb in order for the locals to make offerings
to them!” exined Giya.
“Unbelievable, right…? As if corpses could just fall from the sky… I’m guessing that all this was just
some fairy-tale they came up with!”
“Anyway… The second mural talks about the heavenly soldiers as well. Among the corpses, one of
them seemed to be particrly more mysterious than the others. This heavenly soldier seemed to have
received very special and different treatment from the locals. Based on the murals, it appears that they
worshiped this particr corpse like a king, even going so far as to kowtow before him while they were
transporting his corpse! Actually, after taking a closer look, they seemed to worship the dead body like
a god more than a king!
“This corpse was apparently more special than the rest since they found his body on a big tree that had
fallen from the sky with all the other corpses!” added Giya, feeling that the story was getting a bit too
unrealistic, even by fairy-tale standards.
“Aren’t there two coffins being transported though?” asked Meredith.
“Well, the third mural seems to exin that… ording to the mural, a woman dressed in white should
be buried in the other coffin… She was supposedly extremely beautiful, and everyone who saw her
would end up feeling shocked. Apparently, she looked extremely beautiful even though she was as
dead as the other corpses! What more, she was found lying on top of the heavenly soldier who was
found on the same big tree I mentioned earlier. From what the locals could tell, the two of them were
lovers who wanted to be buried with each other! Because of that, the people of that country held a very
grand burial ceremony for the two spiritual beings on the day they found them!”
“As for the fourth mural… I only understand the former part… Apparently, the mysterious heavenly
soldier had a weapon with him, though it was ced somece else… Also, both he and the woman
dressed in white ended up not getting buried together… This was supposedly because some old
beggar had stood in their way, preventing them from proceeding with the n. Due to that old man’s
interference, the mysterious heavenly soldier ended up being ced inside a very special coffin before
being stored in a secret room… As seen on this part of the mural, the ones present at that particr
scene were the king, the ones burying the mysterious heavenly soldier, and also… that old beggar.
From the looks of it, the old man wasughing the entire time!”
“…I see. And thetter part of it…?” asked Gerald, feeling extremely confused as he was bewildered.
“I… don’t quite get thetter part… It mentions something about the old beggar knowing ck
magic…? Apparently, the moment the burial ceremony was over, heughed a few times before
disappearing into thin air! Right after that, a massive object appeared that shrouded the entire royal
city! It’s… improbable to say the least, but it looks like a battleship! I… can’t make sense of this part
either…” replied Giya as she shook her head.
How the hell could such a huge battleship even exist thousands of years ago?!
Meredith shook her head as well before saying, “I guess this is all just the result of people of old’s
exaggerated imagination… From what I can see, the heavenly soldier couple must have been the
prince and his most beloved concubine. It would make sense for the people of that time to paint the
mural this way to symbolize their deep love for one another. What more, the prince theory also exins
why everyone in the murals is bowing to him! He’s a noble after all! As for the corpses that fell from the
sky… I’m assuming that they’re the prince’s personal soldiers. Since the countries in the western
regions were constantly at war in the past, the prince could’ve died while leading his soldiers into
battle…”
Hearing Meredith’s theory, Giya couldn’t help butugh before saying, “Though the love story you came
up with sounds a little unrealistic, it still makes sense, in a way. At the very least, it’s by far the most
logical conclusion we’ve arrived at! I’m guessing most of what you said was right!”
“Still… The ancients must have had really amazing imagination for them to even draw such a huge
battleship thousands of years ago!” chimed in Gerald without putting too much thought into it.
After saying that, he turned to look at the stone tform before adding, “So… the item hidden within
that stone box should be the weapon the heavenly soldier carried, right?” said Gerald as he gently
touched the stone box.
Luckily, he was easily able to open the stone box!
