Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1106

Wagner followed that sentence with a nod.

Hearing that, Gerald slowly opened the scroll. True to Wagner’s words, the opened scroll revealed an extremely

vivid and realistic portrait of some sort of general.

The general himself was holding a longsword in hand, and he looked extremely formidable. Even Gerald couldn’t

help but feel slightly intimidated by the painting.

However, even that wasn’t what captured Gerald’s attention the most. No, what absolutely caught his interest was

the fact that the general in the picture looked exactly like the deity in the eternal coffin which, in turn, meant that

both of them looked exactly like him!

Even the sword in the general’s hand seemed to be the Lightbane! The longsword that Gerald always carried

around with him!

“It’s him!” shouted Gerald, his eyelids twitching slightly.

“Do you know him, mister? Regardless, I told you that there was a reason behind all my actions! My family’s been

waiting all this time for a person who resembled the one in the portrait, and here you finally are!”

Gerald didn’t even know how to reply to that.

To think that he would still be able to come across the general after leaving the desert… This was definitely no

coincidence. Who exactly was this person…? And how did he have such remarkable capabilities? How could he

even predict that Gerald would come here?

“…Who was it who asked you to wait for me? Where is that person?” asked Gerald after giving it some thought.

The other things could wait for now. After all, as long as he was able to find this mysterious person, all the other

mysteries could be resolved much easier.

To his surprise, Wagner simply shook his head before replying, “I’m afraid that I’m not quite sure who the person

who told us to wait for you was, mister… After all, my ancestors had been told to wait from eight hundred years

ago… Thanks to Master Ghost’s near-perfect calculations, however, he was able to estimate that I’d be able to

meet that person soon. If you truly are the one we’ve been waiting for, then our eight hundred year mission is now

finally complete!”

While Wagner seemed to be filled with excitement, Gerald himself was left bewildered as he muttered, “E-eight

hundred years ago…?”

So what Wagner was telling him now was that someone from eight hundred years ago had wanted members of the

Yarne family to wait for Gerald and meet up with him?!

Wanting to get to the bottom of this, Gerald told Wagner to detail all that he knew about the person.

Hearing that, Wagner then began elaborating on how the Yarne family had first met the mysterious person. As

Wagner had earlier said, the Yarnes were only simple fishermen about eight hundred years ago.

However, all that changed when one of his ancestors bumped into an old beggar on his way home after fishing one

evening. The old beggar had requested Wagner’s ancestor for some food. His ancestor was so kind that he brought

the old man home and served him a grand seafood feast!

Once the old beggar had eaten to his heart’s content, however, he refused to leave! Instead, he told Wagner’s

ancestor that he was going to stay here until he managed to get the Yarnes to become a rich and powerful family.

Upon hearing that, his ancestor’s family instantly grew amused, thinking that he was drunk. To their shock, he then

stood up with a serious look on his face before saying, “As long as you’re willing to fulfill a single promise for me, I’ll

allow all of you to lead a wealthy life without worries from now on.”

Following that, he took out a huge amount of gold from his pocket. Stupefied, Wagner’s ancestors immediately

asked what the beggar wanted them to do.

Knowing that he had gotten their attention, the old beggar then began drawing a portrait on the spot. Once he was

done, he told the Yarnes to wait for the person—who looked similar to the portrait he had drawn—to appear and

once he did, they were to hand a wooden box—which the old man handed over to them—to him.

True to his word, he soon helped the Yarnes become a rich and powerful family. Once that was done, the old beggar

simply left.

The Yarne family had never expected such an opportunity to come to them. In just less than a year, their family had

managed to make a fortune in Halimark City, building several family properties there which still remained today.

“To be quite frank, my father had told me about all this not long before he passed away. I hadn’t really cared too

much about it back then, thinking it was all just nonsense. After all, it is a tale from eight hundred years ago.

Imagine my shock when I bumped into you today!” explained Wagner.

Gerald was equally as shocked after hearing Wagner’s entire tale.

“An old beggar? Why is it that old beggar again?! Can such coincidences even exist? He already appeared once in

the North Desert! To think that he’s making an appearance here as well! There’s got to be at least a few thousand

years in between his two appearances! Could it perhaps have been some descendant of his who had equally

remarkable abilities? Or… Could they actually be the same person…?” muttered Gerald to himself, feeling quite

nervous and frightened at the same time.

He was right to be terrified. After all, such a mysterious and extraordinarily strong person knew him this well and

was probably keeping a constant eye on him! Anyone would be worried if they found out that such a person

existed!

“Speaking of which, mister, the old beggar also told us to relay two sentences to you!” said Wagner as he looked at

Gerald.

“What are they?”

“One is reborn in heaven beside the red spider lily. A defiant dragon will appear near the crossing of blood!”
