Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1988
After thinking for a while, Gerald eventually said, “…Don’t worry, we’ll leave first thing in the morning!”
Hearing that, Yale instantly agreed. To him, the sooner they left the town, the better…

Fast forward to nighttime, Gerald and Yale didn’t dare to sleep. After all, there was always the chance
of getting attacked in their sleep. Still, Gerald couldn’t help but feel that this truly was an ancient ce.
After all, once night fell, not a soul could be seen on the streets. The people of the Autremonde Realm
didn’t really have a nightlife, and he had to admit that the quietness felt rather unusual…
Regardless, the duo instantly set off once dawn broke. The earlier they left, the less likely they were to
identally bump into the scarred man…
Thankfully, all it took was about an hour for Gerald and Yale to sessfully leave the town…
Now that they had made it out safely, Yale was prompted to ask, “So… Where to now, brother
Gerald…?”
Yale was naturally curious to know since he was going to be following Gerald around.
Upon hearing that, Gerald couldn’t give an immediate response. After all, was new to the Autremonde
Realm, and he didn’t really know this ce well.
With that in mind, Gerald simply replied with his own question, “…Tell me, where can we get to from
here? Also, among the options we have, which would you pick?” “Um… Well, we can get to Shontell if
we head east… If we head west, however, we’ll arrive in Yahath. As for which I’d personally choose, I’ll
have to say Shontell!” replied Yale.
Hearing that, Gerald then nodded before dering, “Hmm… Well, it’s decided then! We’re heading to
Shontell! Lead the way, Yale!”
With that, the duo began their journey to Shontell..
As they journeyed on, Yale made sure to detail everything he knew—about Shontell—to Gerald. After
all, it was always good to know what to expect in new ces. Regardless, Shontell was apparently a
large country in the Autremonde Realm, and it was also the home of Gardale City, arge and
prosperous area…
Fast forward to a few hourster, the duo—who had taken a few short rests in between—finally arrived
at a small jungle located near Gardale City…
By this point, it was already a little after noon, and since the duo hadn’t had their breakfast, they were
practically famished by this point. Thankfully, they came across an inn while traversing the jungle. From
the looks of it, the inn had been built there specifically for weary travelers who were in dire need of
rest…
Whatever the case was, the duo immediately entered and ordered some food.
While they were eagerly waiting for their meals to arrive, both of them couldn’t help but notice a horse
cart—that was heavily guarded by a group of men—that had just stopped before the inn…
Even from inside, the two could see that the cart was loaded with chests of all sizes, each of them
labeled with seals… Guessing that the chests contained valuable items, Gerald then turned back to
look at Yale before asking, “Any idea what they’re up to, Yale?”
“Oh! They’re just a delivery team, brother Gerald! Since the seals on the chests arebeled, ‘Shontell
Treasury,’ it’s only fair to assume that they’re from the Shontell Delivery House, and that the chests
contain holy stones!” exined Yale as Gerald nodded in response.
As it turned out, the people of the Autremonde Realm were still using delivery services, just like how
people—back on earth—used to do in the olden days…
Either way, Gerald and Yale were just about to resume talking about something else when all of a
sudden, a dozen men—dressed fully in ck—leaped out from the bushes!
Seeing that, Yale’s eyes instantly widened as he hid under the table before yelling, “R-robbers!”
