Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1352
“With that in mind, I hope you now understand what I’ve constantly been worrying about! His rapid progression in
strength is a clear warning that action must be taken!” added Yreth, a solemn expression on her face.
Hearing that, Yume—whose mouth had been gaping wide for a while in her dumbfounded state—could only nod her
head in agreement.
After being granted all this knowledge, Yume truly felt like the door to a whole new world had just been opened to
her. After a brief silence, she then asked, “Then… What are the origins of our family, grandma…? Aside from that,
I’m also curious about the great masters that managed to escape the great civilization of antiquity… Where did
they end up running off to…?”
“Oh, they escaped all over the place! While some of those great masters remained here on earth, most of them
chose to escape to someplace known as Jaellatra instead. After all, there are enough holy spirits there to relatively
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsufficiently sustain them!”
“…Jaellatra? Where is it? Could it be someplace not on earth…?” asked Yume curiously.
Shaking her head, Yreth then replied, “While it’s a place on earth, it’s located within a narrow gap on this planet!
Very few people are able to make it into that gap, and once inside, it’s even more difficult to leave!”
“As for the start of our family’s great history, it began when one of our ancestors accidentally discovered some
miracles that were left behind some tens of thousands of years ago. It was also around then when they inherited
something great, and after passing it down throughout the generations, the Gunters eventually ended up becoming
one of the most influential families in the world!”
“…I see! I seem to understand everything a little better now!” replied Yume with a nod, feeling that she had now
gained a comprehensive understanding of the situation.
“I’m glad to hear that. Now then, since you already see the bigger picture, I believe you won’t continue hindering
me from doing anything in the future, right? After all, since things have already gotten to this point, there really
isn’t any turning back anymore. Even if we hypothetically choose not to deal with Gerald in the future, he still isn’t
going to be letting our family off. In case you haven’t noticed, the Gunters have already been living through a crisis
ever since we boarded ship. With that said, now that you know that the lives of hundreds of innocent Gunter family
members are on the line, I hope you’re sensible enough not to continue being enchanted by such fruitless and futile
love…” said Yreth, slight frustration in her voice.
“…To be completely honest, grandma, from what I’ve seen, Gerald isn’t a cruel or ruthless person at all. Since we
haven’t fallen out with one another yet, perhaps there is still a way to make peace with him once we share
everything that we know!”
“Hah! You’re dead wrong there! You barely understand him at all, especially since he’s changed so much from the
last time you’ve met! Regardless, there isn’t anything else to say about this anymore. After leaving this room, I
hope you’ll obediently remain inside our manor. Please don’t make me have to worry about you any more than I
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmneed to!” replied Yreth as she waved her hand, signaling for her granddaughter to leave the room.
Though Yume clearly looked like she still had more to say, seeing how reluctant her grandmother seemed to
continue talking, she chose to leave for the meantime instead.
The second the door to the secret chamber closed, an almost ethereal voice suddenly said, “It was wrong of you to
tell her about our affairs… This could easily be the eventual cause of your precious granddaughter’s death! You
know how foolish women can be after falling in love! There’s a high possibility that she’ll end up messing up our
plans due to how much she loves him!”
“I know my granddaughter well, and I’m only trying to help her. She’s never fallen in love before this, which is why I
told her everything so that she can finally understand how powerful Gerald truly is! If I had chosen not to tell her,
then that ignorant and foolish girl would surely do something stupid for him, ultimately ruining all our plans! Telling
her all that was my way of showing how large a gap there was between Gerald and herself. Hopefully that’ll lead to
her finally giving up on him!”
“As for you. You’re the one who got us entangled in this situation in the first place. If you don’t fulfill your promise to
our family at the end of the day, then I’ll never let you off, not even after I die and turn into a ghost!”
