Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1990
Simply chuckling in response, Gerald then said, “No need to be so modest, captain Juans! Either way,
you should really tend to your wounds first.”
Upon hearing that, Tanner realized that he was still pretty badly injured. With that, he then sat down
and began treating his wounds…
Shortly after, a troop of horseback soldiers arrived at the inn. From the looks of it, these were the
Armored guards of Shontell that Tanner had previously mentioned about…
Seeing them, Tanner immediately got to his feet and greeted one of the armored men, “General
Lucarl!”
General Kay Lucarl was themander of the Shontell’s Armored guards, and upon seeing how
wounded Tanner was, he couldn’t help but say in astonishment, “Captain Juans! That’s a pretty nasty-
looking wound there!”
“It’s only a scratch!” replied Tanner with a chuckle. Instead ofughing along, Kay simply got off his
horse and began looking at all the dead bodies on the ground… While he was definitely sure that a
fierce battle had been fought here, he couldn’t help but notice that all the enemies were dead.
With that, Kay was prompted to ask, “Did… any of the bandits get away, Captain Junas? And are the
holy stones safe?”
“Negative. All the bandits are dead! Also, none of the holy stones got stolen!” replied Tanner.
“What? You managed to kill all of them?” eximed the astounded Kay.
“Well, it wouldn’t be fair to im all the credit. Truth be told, this young man here is the one who took
most of them out! If it wasn’t for him, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have lived to tell the tale!” exinedN?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
Tanner as he gestured toward Gerald.
Raising a slight brow as he looked at Gerald, Kay then replied, “You’re… saying that thisd here killed
most of these men?”
“Indeed! I witnessed all of it with my very own eyes!” eximed Tanner as he nodded.
Naturally, this surprised Kay. After all, how powerful did one need to be in order to single handedly take
out so many men? Kay, for one, knew that not many in Shontell were this capable…
After a brief pause, Kay shook his head before ordering, “…Men! Go through their bodies and see if we
can identify them!” Doing as they were instructed, it was only a short whileter when one of the
soldiers returned to Kay’s side before reporting, “General! Those men in ck seem to be from Mount
Tygress!”
“Mount Tygress? So, it’s them again…!” growled Kay.
Mount Tygress was the name of a group of bandits that had been terrorizing Shontell for ages. They
specialized in robbing escort cars and due to the fact that all of their members were extremely capable,
not only had they sessfully robbed several escort cars before, but Shontell’s army was unable to
permanently shut them down. It definitely didn’t help that the path to the bandits’ir was so winded
and windy…
Thinking about it for a while, Kay then walked up to Gerald—who was currently enjoying his tea—
before saying, “…. heard from Captain Juans that you took all these people out… If I may, who exactly
are you, and where did youe from?”
Hearing that, Gerald then calmly replied, “I’m merely a vagabond who just so happened to be here
when all this was happening. As for why I helped, isn’t itmon courtesy to help those in need?”
Gerald’s response simply made Kay more and more curious. In all honesty, he still hadn’t gotten over
the fact that Gerald had taken out all those strong men—from Mount Tygress—on his own…
