Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1780
There was no way in hell that those two facts could be coincidences. With that in mind, that could only mean that
the Ember Lord was hiding there.
However, since the Ember Lord had left that hint for them, it was possible that instead of finding him there, they
would instead find the location of his next victim.
After thinking about it for a while, Old Flint then started the car and immediately stepped on the gas! They needed
to head to Yamilet Fae’s home right now!
“Are you really sure that the Ember Lord will be hiding there, Gerald…?” asked Rey on their way there.
Shaking his head, Gerald then replied with a serious expression, “To be quite honest, I’m not too sure. After all, the

next victim, but in finding that victim, we’ll surely get one step closer to where the Ember Lord is hiding!”
Hearing that, Rey then nodded in understanding…
After about forty minutes of driving, the trio finally arrived at the Ember Lord’s grandmother’s house.
Yamilet lived in a small, remote village, and the trio soon found themselves walking along the road in the village.
Since they didn’t meet anyone along the way, it was quickly made evident that the village had very few residents.
What more, despite the fact that there were quite a number of houses in the area, many of them were locked and
showed signs of being unoccupied for a rather long time…
Then again, it wasn’t all that surprising. After all, the city was much better developed than this place. With that in
mind, who would be willing to continue suffering in such a place when they could live in much better homes?
Regardless, after walking for quite a while, they finally came across a plainly dressed person. With how old his
clothes looked, all three of them assumed that he was just a farmer living here.
“Hello there!” called out Old Flint.
Hearing that, the old man instantly turned to face the trio, looking rather surprised that outsiders would even come
to this village.
“…Yes? Who… are you?” asked the old man, sounding slightly frightened.
“Don’t worry, I’m just from the Grand Council! Cutting straight to the chase, I’d like to know if you know where
Yamilet lives?” replied Old Flint.
Hearing that Old Flint was from the Grand Council, the farmer lowered his guard before asking, “…I’m sorry,
who…?”
“Yamilet Faes! She’s an old lady!” repeated Old Flint.

“Oh, you’re looking for her? She passed away some time ago! Do you have business with her…?” asked the farmer.
Of course, Old Flint and the other two already knew that she was dead.
“We know about that, but we still need to go to her home. There’s something we need there!” explained Old Flint.
“Oh! Well, if that’s the case, I’ll bring you there!” replied the old farmer as he cheerfully agreed to help.
Delighted, Old Flint then replied, “I’m glad to hear that! Thank you, good sir!”
Now that someone was leading the way, they didn’t have to go looking around for her place anymore.
With the farmer’s guidance, all three of them soon arrived at Yamilet Faes’s home.
While it was a simple wooden cottage that had fallen into disrepair over the years, the door still appeared to be
locked.
Looking at the state of the house, Ray couldn’t help but mutter, “…I… don’t think the Ember Lord would hide in
such a shabby and creepy place, Gerald…!”
