Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1156
Looking at how weakly Chester was apologizing, Gerald then gently patted him on the shoulder before
saying, “It’s fine… After all, we’ve… We seem to have finally arrived at the king of the ocean’s
pce…”
After saying that, Gerald went silent for a while, utterly stunned by what he was now looking at.
Not hearing anything from Gerald for a while, Chester then looked up as well. His eyes widened the
moment he did, and he found his mouth gaping as he stared at the extremely magnificent-looking
pce thaty before them.
The pce looked befitting of a dragon, and in the middle of the structure, was an enormous high
tform. What stupefied Gerald most, however, was the fact that hovering about twenty feet above the
tform, was a crystal coffin!
‘It’s another eternal coffin!’ Gerald thought to himself in his bewilderment.
So it really was true… The woman in white truly had been buried within an eternal coffin here after
being separated from the deity!
Still, Gerald couldn’t help but wonder why the old beggar had deliberately ced them so far away
from each other… What could the old man’s intention have been by disallowing the two to ever meet
for all of eternity?
As Gerald was deep in thought, the corner of his eye saw Chester pointing at the surrounding murals
as he said, “…There are murals all over the ce, sir… They seem to describe everything that had
happened that eventually led to all this…”
After ncing one more time at the woman in white’s eternal coffin, Gerald turned to look at the murals
together with Chester.
Simr to the underground pce in the desert, this ce was also filled to the brim with murals.
Skimming through the images, Gerald confirmed that the murals were mostly detailing the tale of the
woman in white’s burial. More specifically, they talked about the burial process and the origins of the
woman in white’s corpse. In other words, mostly things that Gerald was already aware of.
Among the murals, however, asional abstract words could be found. Gerald, for one, had no idea
what they meant. After all, they were vastly different from the words he had seen in previous murals.
All of a sudden, he heard Chester mutter, “…Hmm? Cavernnguage?”
Turning to look at Chester, Gerald saw that he was also staring at a few abstract words that had been
etched onto another wall.
“Cavernnguage?” asked Gerald as he went to Chester’s side.
“Indeed, sir. You see, thenguage was used exclusively by an ancient tribe who were cave dwellers.
My family had a collection of animal skin rolls belonging to said cave dwellers, and my grandma had
forced me to learn the meaning of some of their words and characters when I was much younger…”
exined Chester.
Raising an eyebrow, Gerald then replied, “Does that mean that you’re able to read and understand the
language?”
Briefly skimming through the words, Chester then scratched the back of his head as he said, “…At
most, I feel that I’ll only be able to understand a little over half of it… The rest will mostly be
guesswork.”
“That’s already way better than me since I can’t make heads or tails of it. Either way, do tell me what
you think the words are trying to say,” replied Gerald as he patted Chester’s shoulder.
Hearing that, Chester immediately began trying to decipher the words very seriously.
It was around ten minutester when he said, “…The text seems to be talking about some mysterious
prophecy… It also keeps repeating a few words…”
Upon saying that, Chester then began pointing at a few words, guiding his finger along each word as
he exined what they individually meant.
“The sentence that keeps getting repeated says, ‘Two petals bloom and each petal represents a world.
The answer you seek is in one of them!’”
“Two petals bloom and each petal represents a world… That’s what it truly says?” asked Gerald for
confirmation.
“That’s right, sir!” replied Chester as he immediately nodded.
The mysterious old woman had said the exact same thing to him back then… Speaking of the old
woman, Gerald had earlier used his mind to search his surroundings, yet he couldn’t sense the old
woman’s presence at all.
‘Could she have left the moment we fainted…? But that doesn’t make any sense! With the currents so
strong out there, even I can’t go against them, let alone her!’
However, Gerald quickly shook the thoughts off. That wasn’t the main thing he should be focusing on at
the moment…
Moving back to what Chester had told him… Each petal represents a world… While Gerald was
definitely sure that it was referring to the Dead Annies, he had no idea where to even begin
comprehending the text.
Slowly frowning, Gerald then asked, “Is there anything else? Also, which part of that made you feel that
it sounds like a prophecy?”
“Well, the rest of the words state that someone will appear after ten thousand years and bring the fairy
away to be reunited with her lover after being separated throughout that period of time… Once they’ve
been reunited, the person who brings them back together will also be able to find his answer… Even
so, the answer may seem far but also very near at the same time…”
Just as Chester had said, while he was able to discern most of the words, he still needed a great deal
of effort to properly trante them.
After a brief pause, he then continued, “…Because he owns the… key to carry away the eternal
coffin… He’s the only one who’s able to truly open the eternal coffin!”
“A key?”
“Yeah. Or at least something very simr to a key!” replied Chester.
After thinking about it for a while, Gerald then said, “…Could it perhaps be referring to this…?”Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
