    Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1269


    “…Chester, didn’t you… you know… Either way… How did you get resurrected…?” asked Gerald as he


    slowly approached him.


    Chester himself seemed like he had a lot to tell Gerald, and while the exnation process was a little


    slow and awkward, Gerald could still understand what his brother was saying.


    As it turned out, after Gerald had personally buried Chester’s body, Tiara dug it out again and used a


    secret technique—that Queena had taught her—to resurrect and turn him into a killing machine!


    Chester also took the time to exin the long-standing heritage of the Holy Witchcraft. Apparently,


    Queena’s soul was the one who had professionally founded the Holy Witchcraft, and before she died,


    she had made special preparations for her own resurrection hundreds of yearster!


    Upon hearing this, Gerald finally understood everything. So that’s why Tiara had been so frightened


    when she received the letter from Queena’s subordinate in front of the manor that day! Queena was


    actually her ancestor!

    As for Chester’s resurrection, it wasn’t a real resurrection at all! From what Gerald now understood,


    Queena had used some ancient form of witchcraft to fill Chester’s body with vitality, thus in a sense,


    ‘resurrecting’ him. Though this form of witchcraft was innately evil, using it on someone would greatly


    increase the person’s strength, Tiara being a living example of that.


    Regardless, it wouldn’t be a stretch to consider the current Chester to be half-human and half-demon.


    Chester also added that several people were in the same state that he was now in, and that they too


    had undergone great transformations due to Queena’s actions.


    “Throughout this time, I’ve been living as a bystander… As in, I haven’t been able to control my body at


    all! It was like I was watching some messed up movie where I’d do whatever Tiara ordered me to… I…


    I’ve done way too many atrocities that I didn’t want to…!”


    “…However, the golden light that was emitted from that pendant… It seemed to contain some sort of


    magical energy. The second I was hit by it, all the guilt and evil from my body just seemed to melt


    away, allowing me to gradually regain my consciousness and free myself from merely being a


    bystander!” exined Chester.


    Recalling what Master Ghost had told him, Gerald’s yang energy was extremely masculine since it


    hadn’t undergone holy baptism yet. Aside from that, Master Ghost had also said that the owner of the


    jade pendant had an inextricable link to him. With that in mind, the jade pendant was definitely no


    ordinary object.


    Gerald remembered how brightly the jade pendant had shone while Chester was still strangling him. He


    also recalled how a ck glow seemed to have escaped from his body. The jade pendant must have


    purified the evil nature in Chester’s body at that moment!


    “…Speaking of which, Chester, who were those eight men? All of you had immense inner strength, and


    not even mine could ever hope to rival yours now! I don’t think I can even hurt any of you with my


    current strength!” said Gerald.


    “Ah, those people… Theye from an organization called the Judgement Portal. While Tiara was


    reporting to Queena, I heard them mentioning that both the Judgement Portal and Queena’s Squad of


    Divine Grimness are still rtively new forces. From what I found out, the Judgement Portal group has


    constantly been going against the Squad of Divine Grimness. Their group has also been actively trying


    to locate you! From one of our confrontations with them, one of the Judgement Portal’s members said


    that they wanted to capture you before heading to the Ancient City to look for the corpse of the


    Celestial Lady!” exined Chester with a cough.


    As he had said before, though Chester was controlled physically, his mind had been active the entire


    time. It was the reason why he could still recall all this, albeit a bit roughly.


    ‘…Ancient City? A Celestial Lady… The woman in white? And what even is the Judgement Portal?


    Their members are extremely strong!’ Gerald thought to himself, puzzled.


    From what he had learned, Gerald could deduce at least half of what was happening with the whole


    Ancient City thing.


    Yume was part of the Gunter family and back then, she and that olddy had disappeared in the king of


    the ocean’s pce. Since there weren’t even any traces of her left, Gerald could simply assume that


    she was dead. Now, however, he was thinking otherwise.


    Could she have survived? And could she have gone elsewhere to bring the woman in white out? That


    possibility wasn’tpletely out of the question!


    After all, Gerald had previously sent some of his men to investigate the remains of the king of the


    ocean’s pce. As was expected, the tomb waspletely decimated.


    Looking at Chester, Gerald then asked, “Do you happen to know where the Ancient City is, Chester?”


    Shaking his head in response, Chester then replied, “Unfortunately, all I know is that Queena and the


    others headed there immediately the moment they found out that the woman in white was there. Before


    leaving, she sent me and Tiara to go after you. Aside from that, I really have no idea where the Ancient


    City is!”


    “Ancient City? Master Nacol was talking about that just a few days ago! If I remember correctly, the


    Gunters are living there…” said Dr. Mabb—who had been silent this entire time—out of the blue.


    “…Oh? If the Gunters are there and if the woman in white has made an appearance there, then I’m


    sold that that’s the same Ancient City that Chester’s talking about!”
