Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1512
Ignoring Gerald’s question, Ghose simply closed his eyes for a moment… And when he reopened them, a momentary flash of fire could be seen reflected in his eyes as he roared, “Flaming Blades!”
Following that, the hilt of his katana seemed to light ablaze, shooting upward toward the tip which Gerald was still holding onto!
Much to Ghose’s dismay, the second the flames were about to burn Gerald, they suddenly extinguished with a sizzling sound!
“…W-what…? How is this even remotely possible?!” stuttered the wide-eyed Ghose in disbelief as he stared at the youth.
Sensing that Ghose probably wasn’t going to reveal any relevant information if he continued holding onto his blade, Gerald simply released his grip on it, immediately causing Ghose to take a few steps back.
At that moment, seven distinct ringing sounds could be heard coming from where the Laidlers were seated…
Almost immediately after, seven figures leaped out from the shadows, taking only a split second to surround Gerald as they shouted, “Master!”
From what Gerald could see, all seven of the masked men were dressed in ninja-like garb, and each of them had murderous auras as they held onto their steel knives.
Regaining his composure, Ghose then turned to look at Gerald before saying, “Now then… If you didn’t already know, Tierson Mountain is extremely important to the Goldenslinger, your excellency… With that in mind, I’ll say it right now that if you still wish to gain control over the area, you’ll surely offend the rest of the Goldenslinger… You wouldn’t want that, would you…?”
“Oh? I see, I see…” replied Gerald as he nodded.
“Hmm? So, you’re finally starting to get scared? Wise of you, really. Now then, why don’t we have a seat and get a bit more acquainted with each other?” said Ghose as he took a step toward Gerald.
“Scared? I’m afraid you’re mistaken. Regardless, you really shouldn’t have said that to me,” replied Gerald as he shook his head.
“…I beg your pardon? What do you mean by that, your excellency?” asked Ghose, stunned.
“Well, quite honestly, I had only planned to fend you off at first. Following that, I’d have asked you regarding how you went about with your training routes as well as a little on your sect. Before I even got to that, however, to think that you’d actually dare to threaten and blackmail me!” replied Gerald.
“…What? With that said, are you not interested in allying with us? I’m afraid you don’t know how powerful the Goldenslinger truly is!” said Ghose as unease swept through his entire being.
“Whether they’re powerful or not is beside the point. I hadn’t intended on killing you just now, you know? However, for daring to threaten me, you’ll be paying with your life!”
Ghose was now feeling like the weakest man alive as he stood before Gerald.
Not wanting things to just end like this, Ghose quickly snapped out of it before saying, “The Goldenslinger are a secretive and mysterious sect with a thousand-year history in Japan! We have many experts without our ranks, so there’s no need to offend us, Deity!”
“Well, since I still wish to gain control, the Goldenslinger are going to be offended either way, no?” replied Gerald.
“That’s right! However, if you hand the controlling rights over to us, I’ll definitely beg the Goldenslinger to spare your life!” cried out Ghose in his panicked state.
“So, it appears that you still don’t get what I’m trying to say, nor do you understand my style of doing things. Regardless, I’ve already offended you anyway, so I may as well just finish off what I’ve started. I’ll still be killing you off now, and if the Goldenslinger find fault with me later on, I’ll just end them when they come for me!” replied Gerald as he squinted his eyes before extending his right hand…
As his hand began glowing, it began radiating an aura that manifested into a giant pair of hands that swiftly grabbed onto Ghose!
Before Ghose could even react, Gerald clenched his fist… and the next thing anyone knew, Ghose had already been reduced to nothing more than a lump of bloodied meat!
Having witnessed such a cruel scene, everyone in the area instantly began screaming in sheer horror!
