Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1983
With the trio now gone, Gerald then walked up to the thin man and helped him up.
“T-thank you for saving me, brother…! I, Yale Zachrey, am indebted to you!” said the man.
“Don’t worry about it. I just happened to see you getting bullied while passing by, and there was no way I was going
to leave without helping! Regardless, if you feel indebted, why don’t you just treat me to breakfast and we’ll call it
even?” replied Gerald with a smile as he patted Yale on the back.
Though he was momentarily surprised by that simple request, Yale quickly snapped out of it before nodding as he
said, “Sure thing! Speaking of which, what should I call you, brother?”
“You can just call me Gerald!” “Got it! I’ll be calling you brother Gerald then! Also… You don’t seem to be a local…

After all, aside from his immense strength, Gerald looked rather different from the others in town as well.
Chuckling in response, Gerald simply replied, “Indeed! Let’s just say I’m a traveler from afar!”
“I see!” said Yale, not doubting Gerald’s statement in the least…
Following that, Yale led Gerald to a food stall—by the street—and ordered him some buns as well as a bowl of
noodles…
After quickly finishing his breakfast, Gerald looked at Yale as he asked, “Say… Do you know any ways of earning
holy stones quickly?”
“Hmm? You’re in need of them?” replied Yale in slight surprise, not expecting that question.
“Yeah… I ended up spending all of mine, which is why I asked you to treat me to breakfast! While I now have
breakfast covered, I’ll still need more holy stones for my following meals!” muttered Gerald, feeling slightly
embarrassed.
Though that was mostly a lie, he couldn’t just tell Yale that he was from earth! The secret needed to be
maintained…
“I see… Well, there is one place, though I’m not sure if you’ll be willing to go!” mumbled Yale after hesitating for a
bit. “Oh? And what place is that?”
‘Well… It’s a casino in town! You can definitely get holy stones quickly there, though it’ll be through gambling… Still,
I’ll say it right now that you’ll need quite a bit of skill or you’ll simply end up losing even more holy stones!”
explained Yale.
Hearing that, Gerald realized just how similar this place’s casinos were when compared to regular casinos back on
earth. Well, aside from the different forms of currency. Still, the way the casinos were run were pretty much the

Regardless, he knew that gambling there was his best shot of obtaining lots of holy stones quickly.
With his mind made up, Gerald then said, “…Alright, do lead me there! Speaking of which, could you lend me some
holy stones? I’ll pay them back to you once I make it big.”
After all, he couldn’t gamble without having any holy stones on hand, and he didn’t really know anyone else who
would be willing to help him either.
Either way, upon hearing Gerald’s request, Yale hesitated for a moment before slipping his hand into his pocket and
taking out a single holy stone…
“I… don’t have too many so I can only lend one to you!” muttered Yale.
“One is plenty!” replied Gerald with a firm nod as he took the holy stone. Gerald was no stranger to gambling. To be
quite honest, he was a rather competent gambler! With that in mind, he had no doubts that he would win big by the
end of the day!
