    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1157


    “What is that…?” asked Chester rather curiously as he watched Gerald carefully take a square,


    wooden box out from his pocket.


    Wagner had given the box to Gerald after an old beggar gave it to his ancestors about eight hundred


    years ago. From what Wagner had told Gerald, not only had the old beggar anticipated that Gerald


    would head to the king of the ocean’s pce centuriester, but he had also urately predicted


    Gerald’s meeting with Wagner, hence why he had told Wagner’s descendants to hold on to the box till


    Gerald finally showed up!


    Could it be that the old beggar truly had foreseen what would happen in ten thousand years? Had the


    old man actually managed to predict that Gerald would find the eternal coffin and transport the woman


    in white away for her to finally be reunited with the deity?


    Could… could that old beggar from ten thousand years ago actually be the same person from eight


    centuries ago…?


    Gerald shuddered at the thought and didn’t dare to dwell too much on it. Just thinking about it was


    enough to make him filled with fear and anxiety.


    Regardless, Gerald was able to discern one thing from all of this. In the message the old beggar had


    left for Gerald, he had said that Gerald would gain the answer he sought for as long as reunited the


    woman in white with his other-self. Did that mean that once he did that, the incident regarding the Sun


    League would also be revealed soon as well?


    “…What else did he say? Please do your best and try to understand as much as you can, Chester!”


    said Gerald after his brief silence of deep thought.


    “…Well, it says here that something bad will happen to the world before long, and many will die


    because of that event… Nobody will be able to prevent the cmity from happening, and the


    prophecies wille true one by one! It’s simply our destiny! Beyond that part though, I… I can’t really


    understand anything else…” replied Chester with a sigh.


    Prophecies? And a bad incident where many would die? What event could that even be referring to…?


    And no matter how he looked at the words, why did he have a feeling that the words on the stone tablet


    were referring to him?


    With so many questions in his mind, Gerald forced himself to record down all the words on the stone


    tablet. After all, even though he wasn’t able to read the words now, that didn’t mean that that would


    remain the same in the future.


    Following that, he then brought Chester toward the other murals.


    After looking through them for a while, they found that thest mural seemed to state that as long as


    someone was able to get the key to open the life gate, they would be able to find their way out.


    Even the ‘key’ was shown on the mural. True to what was inside the box, the ‘key’ on the mural was


    drawn in the shape of a goldfish’s tail.


    Gerald made sure to record down all this as well before finally walking over to the eternal coffin—with


    Chester following right behind him—that stilly in the center of the structure.

    While Gerald had heard Lyra describing the woman in white—from her dreams—as a person with the


    temperament of a fairy, Gerald had never seen her for himself.


    Now that he was finally here, he wished to take a proper look at her. After all, he kept hearing that she


    was a beauty that hade from heaven. Was she really that beautiful?


    With a little effort, both of them managed to push the coffin’s lid open halfway. Immediately after that, a


    chill seemed to seep out of the coffin.


    Secondster, the iciness dissipated and the woman in the coffin could now be seen.


    “…Angelica…?” muttered Chester with an excited expression on his face. His tone, however, hinted at


    simultaneous feelings of shock and delight.


    So it seemed that Gerald’s guess really was true. The person who had saved Chester from before


    really was the woman in white! However, a new question was now posed. How had shee alive


    back then?


    Taking a better look into the coffin, Gerald saw that the person inside appeared to be a cold-looking


    beauty who was wearing spotless white clothes.


    With near-unmatched beauty, Gerald had to admit that she was probably the prettiest beautiful woman


    on the.


    What more, despite the fact that she was simply lying there so peacefully, she somehow still exuded a


    fairy-like aura. From what Gerald could tell, the aura seemed to help her heal any ws on her the


    moment they appeared.


    ‘How absolutely beautiful!’ Gerald thought to himself, stunned.


    “Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful you are, you still belong to my doppelganger. I’m only here


    because I wish to find M and uncle so that my family can finally be reunited again… Regardless, I’ll


    be reuniting you with him first, and once I’m done with my task, I hope you’ll help me as well. Even if it’s


    just the tiniest of hints, I’ll dly ept it as long as it truly leads me to them…” said Gerald as he


    looked at the woman inside the coffin before averting his gaze.


    With that said, he then re-sealed the lid of the coffin before jumping off the high tform together with


    Chester.


    After looking around for a bit, Gerald finally saw an indentation in the middle of the high tform. The


    indentation itself matched the shape of the fish tail ‘key’ in his hand.


    ‘We should be able to exit this ce the moment I slide the key inside…’ Gerald thought to himself.


    Just as he was about to slide it in, however, he suddenly heard Chester shout, “S-sir! Look there!


    There’s another coffin there!”


    Turning to look at the dim area that Chester was pointing at, Gerald soon saw it as well.


    Lying in the middle of that darkened area, was a giant ck coffin that had been tied shut with a


    number of sturdy-looking chains. The way the chains were tied, it was almost as though they were


    actively preventing something from escaping.


    With that in mind, it really was no wonder why Chester was feeling unnerved by it.


    “How odd… Why didn’t the murals show the origins of this coffin?” muttered Gerald to himself in


    astonishment.


    That wasn’t the only thing he had found odd upon arriving here. After all, where was the small coffin


    that had turned over from the ship? And though there was also supposed to be a gigantic dragon


    buried here, it was nowhere in sight either!


    “…Let’s not bother about that first. Regardless, stand back, Chester. I have a feeling that the second


    the exit is opened, a lot of seawater wille gushing in. I’ll be focusing on taking care of the eternal


    coffin, so remember to stay close to me,” said Gerald.


    Gerald only had a single aim now, and that was the woman in white. While he still couldn’tpletely


    comprehend some things, he was far too drained to investigate any further into the matter, at least for


    the moment.


    Upon seeing Chester’s firm nod, Gerald slid the fishtail in ce…


    A secondter, a golden light was emitted… And thunderous crashing followed immediately after!
