Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1053
“Regardless, the sun’s not even fully up yet, you b*stard! Crying out so loudly here… Were you planning to cry out
here till I eventually died?” grumbled the old man.
Though Christopher looked like a senile old man, both his eyes seemed extremely sharp. Aside from the many
cobwebs that stuck to his bony body, he didn’t seem to look all that out of the ordinary. If anything, all that simply
emphasized how old Christopher was.
Even so, Kort respected him deeply. Thinking back, it had been over twenty years since he had last met his third
uncle.
Gulping, Kort then pleaded, “…I apologize, but moving on, please save me, Third uncle! Both Daryl and his
grandson are hunting me down with murder in mind! What more, both of them also killed two of your grandsons!
Both of them met truly terrible ends!”
“I see… I’ve come across Daryl during my earlier years… To think that he’d actually return to the ordinary world!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHumph! Interesting… Well, not that interesting but note-worthy… Speaking of which, I know what he’s like so I’m
sure that he wouldn’t argue against a junior like you. It’s even more improbable that he’d kill both of your sons!
He’s not one to go that far! Based on what you told me, could it be that your sons went looking for trouble first and,
as a result, got killed because of that?” replied Christopher rather placidly.
“While I agree that my two sons are mischievous, they didn’t have to die so terribly just because of that! Just so you
know, my third son, Jett, was left to die within the infamous Poisonous Mosquito Valley! Not even bones remained
after the mosquitoes were done with him! As if that wasn’t enough, my other son, Yuvan, was forced to commit
suicide! You can’t just sit back and continue watching all this happen so indifferently! Daryl’s probably the most
powerful person in the world right now! I, for one, certainly can’t even dream of winning against him! With nobody
powerful enough to defeat him, I hope that you’ll step forward to beg him not to kill me! If you refuse, then it’s
better that I just die before you now in order to protect the Moldell family’s reputation!”
After saying all that, Kort eyed a large tree before rushing toward it with the intent of bludgeoning his forehead
against it till he died!
Before he knew it, however, Christopher’s body had vanished from where he had initially stood, reappearing right
beside Kort!
The old man then grabbed Kort’s head with a single hand before shouting, “You b*stard! While it’s true that the
Moldells under me are all scared to death of Daryl, what do you mean he’s the most powerful person there is? I’m
still here, aren’t I? Bold of you to say he’s undefeatable… Bolder still that you even dared to suggest for me to beg
Daryl to forgive you! Ridiculous!” growled Christopher as he narrowed his eyes that reflected his sheer fury.
“…Humph. With me here, that grandson and grandfather won’t be able to lay a finger on you, so don’t worry, Kort!
In fact, rather than go on the defensive, I’ll do you justice and deal with Daryl!” added Christopher in a frigid voice.
“T-thank you, third uncle!” shouted Kort as he burst into tears and leaped at Christopher to embrace him.
However, the moment both of them got into contact, Kort immediately realized that something was off. Left
stupefied, Kort ended up taking a few steps backward and falling to the ground as he said, “T-third uncle! Where’s
your arm?”
“…Hmm? Haha! Ah yes, I forgot that you didn’t know about me losing my right arm…” replied Christopher with a
firm nod.
As the old man had said, his right arm was no longer there. Kort was caught by surprise by this since the long robes
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChristopher was wearing perfectly concealed the nub of his right arm.
“But… You still had it the last time we met some twenty years ago! When did this happen?”
“Haha! I broke my arm about ten years ago, so it’s no surprise that you wouldn’t know!”
“…I see… Then…”
Hearing Kort’s dispirited voice slowly trail off, Christopher immediately replied, “Hahaha! What, are you worried that
I can’t defeat Daryl anymore since I’ve lost an arm?”
“I’d never doubt your strength, uncle! After all, I’m sure the way you present yourself is vastly different from what
you’re truly capable of!”
Upon hearing that, Christopher simply shook his head before raising his remaining hand and gently touching the
trunk of a large tree beside him.
From what Kort could estimate, the trunk was so thick that it would require at least three people hugging it in order
to fully surround it.
A brief silence later, Christopher unleashed an immense force that sent a loud shockwave across the area!
Immediately after, Kort’s eyes widened as he watched the large tree wither from its roots to the tips of its
branches.
After a few seconds, the entire tree split cleanly in the middle! While the tree’s surface area was mostly still intact,
its innards had completely festered.
“M-my god, third uncle!”
