Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2276
After stepping on several mounds of bones, Gerald soon arrived at the innermost part of the cave.
Walking out the stone chamber, the old man momentarily looked at the drenched boy before shaking
his head as he said, “A rare heavy rain…”
“Indeed… Regardless, I’m here because-“
“Stop. Come over here and warm up first. I’ll go get some dry clothes for you,” interrupted the man as
he ced a finger over his lips before heading further down the stone chamber.
While Gerald honestly wasn’t even bothered about his current condition, since the old man insisted, he
simply shook his head before following him. As he walked down the chamber, he couldn’t help but note
that the chamber had barely changed from thest time he was here.
Regardless, he soon saw the old man rummaging through a stone cab. Poking his head out, the old
man then tossed a bag at Gerald while saying, “Try these on.”
By the time Gerald caught the bag, the old man was already tossing some firewood into a basin next to
his bed. With just a snap of his finger, mes red out the dry wood, instantaneously warming the
entire stone chamber.
Naturally, this surprised Gerald, and he was momentarily speechless. While he remembered Jobson
performing something simr back at the Yamashita manor, it was clear as day that this old man was
even more powerful than Jobson.
Noticing how stunned Gerald was, the old man couldn’t help butugh before saying, “Summoning a
me like that is nothing!”
“The fact that you can say that means I have a long way to go…” replied Gerald with a sigh. After all, if
an old man tasked with guarding some ruins was already this strong, then Gerald’s current cultivation
was just the tip of the iceberg.
“So what if I’m strong? There’s no ce for me to use my powers! Though I guess being able to
summon fire whenever I want is convenient… Either way, enough talk, go change already before you
fall sick,” said the old man as he sat cross legged by the fire while extending his palms out.

“But… this…” muttered Gerald in a slightly embarrassed tone as he looked at the bag the old man had
thrown at him. Gerald figured that all the old man’s clothes were hemp robes since he had only ever
seen the old man wearing them, and while it definitely suited Gerald’s temperament as a cultivator, they
were now in the secr world! If he wore this out, then he would surely draw unnecessary attention,
thus inconveniencing him to do things.
“What? You don’t like my clothes?” asked the old man a s be red at the boy.
“Of course, not…” muttered the flustered Gerald as he unwillingly undressed before opening the bag
only to find himself surprised since it contained a set of rather modern and casual clothes! In fact, there
was even modern underwear and socks! Gerald, for one, wasn’t going toin, and he quickly got
himself changed.
Upon hearing the buckling of a belt, the old man was prompted to ask, “Well? Does it fit?”
“It fits perfectly, honestly. Still, to think that you’d foresee my drenched arrival and even get me this
fitting outfit…” muttered Gerald, feeling slightly touched.
“Oh please, I didn’t get them for you. I simply bought them to look at whenever I felt bored! As for the
perfect fit, I guess you just happen to share the same measurements as my son!” replied the old man
with a cackle. ‘
“H-huh?” said Gerald as he awkwardly took a sniff at his clothes.
