Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1106
Wagner followed that sentence with a nod.
Hearing that, Gerald slowly opened the scroll. True to Wagner’s words, the opened scroll revealed an
extremely vivid and realistic portrait of some sort of general.
The general himself was holding a longsword in hand, and he looked extremely formidable. Even
Gerald couldn’t help but feel slightly intimidated by the painting.
However, even that wasn’t what captured Gerald’s attention the most. No, what absolutely caught his
interest was the fact that the general in the picture looked exactly like the deity in the eternal coffin
which, in turn, meant that both of them looked exactly like him!
Even the sword in the general’s hand seemed to be the Lightbane! The longsword that Gerald always
carried around with him!
“It’s him!” shouted Gerald, his eyelids twitching slightly.
“Do you know him, mister? Regardless, I told you that there was a reason behind all my actions! My
family’s been waiting all this time for a person who resembled the one in the portrait, and here you
finally are!”
Gerald didn’t even know how to reply to that.
To think that he would still be able toe across the general after leaving the desert… This was
definitely no coincidence. Who exactly was this person…? And how did he have such remarkable
capabilities? How could he even predict that Gerald woulde here?
“…Who was it who asked you to wait for me? Where is that person?” asked Gerald after giving it some
thought.
The other things could wait for now. After all, as long as he was able to find this mysterious person, all
the other mysteries could be resolved much easier.
To his surprise, Wagner simply shook his head before replying, “I’m afraid that I’m not quite sure who
the person who told us to wait for you was, mister… After all, my ancestors had been told to wait from
eight hundred years ago… Thanks to Master Ghost’s near-perfect calctions, however, he was able
to estimate that I’d be able to meet that person soon. If you truly are the one we’ve been waiting for,
then our eight hundred year mission is now finallyplete!”
While Wagner seemed to be filled with excitement, Gerald himself was left bewildered as he muttered,
“E-eight hundred years ago…?”
So what Wagner was telling him now was that someone from eight hundred years ago had wanted
members of the Yarne family to wait for Gerald and meet up with him?!
Wanting to get to the bottom of this, Gerald told Wagner to detail all that he knew about the person.
Hearing that, Wagner then began borating on how the Yarne family had first met the mysterious
person. As Wagner had earlier said, the Yarnes were only simple fishermen about eight hundred years
ago.
However, all that changed when one of his ancestors bumped into an old beggar on his way home after
fishing one evening. The old beggar had requested Wagner’s ancestor for some food. His ancestor
was so kind that he brought the old man home and served him a grand seafood feast!
Once the old beggar had eaten to his heart’s content, however, he refused to leave! Instead, he told
Wagner’s ancestor that he was going to stay here until he managed to get the Yarnes to be a rich
and powerful family.
Upon hearing that, his ancestor’s family instantly grew amused, thinking that he was drunk. To their
shock, he then stood up with a serious look on his face before saying, “As long as you’re willing to fulfill
a single promise for me, I’ll allow all of you to lead a wealthy life without worries from now on.”
Following that, he took out a huge amount of gold from his pocket. Stupefied, Wagner’s ancestors
immediately asked what the beggar wanted them to do.
Knowing that he had gotten their attention, the old beggar then began drawing a portrait on the spot.
Once he was done, he told the Yarnes to wait for the person—who looked simr to the portrait he had
drawn—to appear and once he did, they were to hand a wooden box—which the old man handed over
to them—to him.
True to his word, he soon helped the Yarnes be a rich and powerful family. Once that was done,
the old beggar simply left.
The Yarne family had never expected such an opportunity toe to them. In just less than a year,
their family had managed to make a fortune in Halimark City, building several family properties there
which still remained today.
“To be quite frank, my father had told me about all this not long before he passed away. I hadn’t really
cared too much about it back then, thinking it was all just nonsense. After all, it is a tale from eight
hundred years ago. Imagine my shock when I bumped into you today!” exined Wagner.
Gerald was equally as shocked after hearing Wagner’s entire tale.
“An old beggar? Why is it that old beggar again?! Can such coincidences even exist? He already
appeared once in the North Desert! To think that he’s making an appearance here as well! There’s got
to be at least a few thousand years in between his two appearances! Could it perhaps have been some
descendant of his who had equally remarkable abilities? Or… Could they actually be the same
person…?” muttered Gerald to himself, feeling quite nervous and frightened at the same time.

He was right to be terrified. After all, such a mysterious and extraordinarily strong person knew him this
well and was probably keeping a constant eye on him! Anyone would be worried if they found out that
such a person existed!
“Speaking of which, mister, the old beggar also told us to ry two sentences to you!” said Wagner as
he looked at Gerald.
“What are they?”
“One is reborn in heaven beside the red spider lily. A defiant dragon will appear near the crossing of
blood!”
