    Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1915


    “WW-what should we do now, Mr. Crawford…?” whispered Rey, gulping as he stared at all the giant


    scorpions around them. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t see an opening for them to escape at


    all!


    “Stay calm! I’m thinking!” replied Gerald as he continued looking around, hoping that it would help him


    devise an escape n.


    Thankfully, it wasn’t long after before Gerald spotted arge door leading out of this area. With their


    escape route in his sight, Gerald quickly whispered, “Rey, do you see thatrge door at your twelve


    o’clock?”


    Turning to look in that direction, Rey then nodded before replying, “I do!”


    “Good, now listen up. The n is simple. You rush over to open that door while I distract the scorpions!


    Got it?” exined Gerald.


    “L-loud and clear!” replied Rey, knowing that that was their best bet of surviving this encounter.


    Hearing that, Gerald then drew his Astrabyss Sword before pushing Rey with his other hand while


    yelling, “Good! Now gol”


    As Rey nodded before bolting toward therge door, Gerald himself began channeling his energy into


    the Astrabyss Sword, allowing it to emit its spiritde.


    Watching as the scorpions backed off a bit—after they saw the spiritde—, Gerald took that chance


    to get a bit closer to Rey. He made sure to stick close enough to Rey to ensure that Rey wouldn’t get


    sneak attacked by any hiding scorpions…


    Thanks to the duo’s teamwork, they were able to get Rey to therge door…


    To Rey’s dismay, however, no matter how hard he pushed, the door wouldn’t budge! Then again, it


    wasn’t really all that surprising. After all, the door was made of stone and it stood over thirty feet tall.


    There was no way Rey was ever going to be able to open it! Understanding that, Rey yelled, “Um…!


    The door’s too heavy for me to open…!”


    “Again, stay calm. I’m sure there’s a mechanism to open it!” replied Gerald who currently had his eyes


    on the giant scorpions that were now charging toward him!


    Seeing that, Rey knew that it was all up to him now. If he failed to find the mechanism, then this would


    be their end… Because of that, failure wasn’t an option!


    With that in mind, Rey quickly calmed himself before starting to search for the mechanism… and not


    long after, he found it!


    The mechanism itself resembled a circr door handle, and after Rey pulled it, therge door instantly


    began shaking!

    Taking a few steps back, Rey could only stare wide-eyed as the door finally swung open a few seconds


    later.


    Delighted, Rey then yelled, “M-Mr. Crawford,e quick! The door’s open!”


    Hearing that, Gerald instantly turned to charge for the exit… and momentster, both of them found


    themselves staring at therge scorpions—that had now stopped in their tracks—from the other side of


    the giant door…


    Shortly after, the scorpions began retreating, prompting the confused Rey to ask, “…Huh? They’re…


    not chasing after us…?” Staring as they scuttled off, Gerald simply replied, “Indeed… I’m assuming that


    they’re afraid of something in here!”
