Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1695
“…I’m willing to join your team, Gerald! I’ll follow you wherever you go!” dered Nori after a brief
moment’s thought.
“Count me in as well, Mr. Crawford!”
“We’re all willing to be part of this!”
Seeing that Nori had taken her stand, Zelig, Cyril, and Ray felt the urge to do the same.
Upon hearing their enthusiastic replies, Gerald couldn’t help but feel touched.
In all honesty, he had already factored in the chance that none of them would go with him. After all, the
four people weren’t even long-time acquaintances of his. With that in mind, Gerald knew that it was
already asking a lot for them to risk their lives just to help him.
Now that all of them were agreeing without so much as a second thought, however, it showed Gerald
that they truly saw him as a friend. In fact, it also disyed how much they trusted in him.
“…Thank you… All of you. While I’d like to have a sentimental moment, there simply isn’t any time to
waste. With that said, do hurry and start packing up! We leave in two hours!” dered Gerald.
Since time was of the essence, the faster they packed up their essentials and headed out, the sooner
they could hopefully locate the Scintiting Gem.
While three hundred days may have sounded a lot, Gerald was well aware that the days they would
spend searching for the gem woulde and go extremely quickly. It certainly didn’t help that he didn’t
even have any clues as to where the gem could be. With that in mind, the faster they acted, the higher
the chances of them actually seeding in finding the gem in time…
Regardless, after hearing Gerald’s order, all four of them hurried off to do as they were told.
Thankfully, exactly two hourster, all four of them regrouped with Gerald, fully prepared.
Following that, the five people made sure to bid goodbye to Sumeru and the four major great masters
before finally leaving the Le Academy.
Immediately after leaving the academy, Gerald and the others made sure to stock up on food and
drinks. Not knowing how long their journey was going to take, the more preparations they made, the
better.
Once they got everything relevant that they could think of, their hunt for the gem officially began.
“…Speaking of which, where are we headed to first…?” asked Nori.
Since Gerald hadn’t even told them where to begin looking, the four of them were feeling rightfully
curious.
Upon hearing that, Gerald opened up the map and began inspecting it. It took him a while, but he
eventually pointed at an area on the map before dering, “We’re going to start looking here! The
South Wastnds!”
The South Wastnds was a deste area located south of the Le Continent. Literally nobody
inhabited that ce, and few dared to venture there…
However, since Gerald had made his choice, Nori and the others simply agreed. With the location
settled, all five of them immediately set off for the South Wastnds…
It took them half a day, but they eventually arrived at the border of the South Wastnds by evening.N?velDrama.Org holds this content.
Upon leaving the Le Continent, the five found that the ce was as deste as the rumors had
imed. No buildings and not even a single soul… The fact that evening was quickly turning to night
definitely amplified the creepiness of the area.
Even so, the five simply continued walking on. After all, Gerald wasn’t afraid of such things.
After walking for a while within the South Wastnds, the group came across a loess wall and decided
that it was high time for them to take a temporary rest.
By that point, it waspletely dark… A little too dark…
Raising a brow, Nori turned to look at the moon in the sky… Only to have a jaw drop.
“….H-hey! Look at the moon! Its shine stops right at the border of the Le Continent! The moon’s
rays can’t reach us here at all!” shouted Nori as she pointed at the bright moon in the distance.
Realizing that what she had said was true, the other group members instantly found that fact to be
rather mysterious and strange…
