Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1108

Still, with so many medicinal herb gatherers dying out at sea or high in the mountains every year, several of the

herbs sold there were bound to have vague origins.

“As they say, rare things are always more valuable. Since so many wealthy merchants and prestigious people head

to the Enchanted Feast just for a chance to get their hands on ancient herbs, maybe you’ll be able to find the herb

you want there,” added Wagner.

Gerald simply nodded in response.

“…Speaking of which, I heard you mentioning someone called Master Ghost earlier… You said that he had predicted

that I would show myself sooner or later, correct? Since he was actually able to calculate that possibility, I wonder

what kind of person he is…?” asked Gerald, suddenly recalling what Wagner had earlier said.

It wasn’t the first time Gerald had heard that name either. After all, Master Ghost had also helped Alice escape from

her predicament back then. As he thought about it, Gerald wondered if Master Ghost could actually be more

accurate than the picture of the sun.

“Ah, well, Master Ghost is a mysterious master in Halimark City, known for his extremely accurate calculations. I

had personally paid him a visit on the eleventh of last month to ask him when I would finally be able to meet the

person in the portrait. After all, my family had already been waiting for well over eight hundred years. In response,

he told me to just continue waiting since my family had been told to do so. However, he also said that I would be

able to meet said person after a short while. In which case, he was right. Just as he had predicted, you appeared

not long after!”

Hearing that, Gerald frowned slightly. If that person truly was that powerful, then Gerald definitely needed to pay

him a personal visit as well.

“Where does Master Ghost live?” asked Gerald.

“Is there something you need to ask him about, mister? I’ll arrange for your meeting but he won’t be meeting

anyone today!”

“Why is that?”

“Well, let’s just say that Master Ghost has an odd habit. He only tells people their fortunes on odd-numbered days.

He simply refuses to meet anyone on days with even numbers! As a result, you’ll have to wait for tomorrow—which

will be the twenty-first—if you wish to see him!” explained Wagner.

“I see… Then it can’t be helped. I’ll head to the Enchanted Feast’s medicine auction first to see if I can find the herb

I want” replied Gerald with a nod.

With the pledge of the holy water just around the corner, he knew that the pellet could potentially be extremely

useful. As a result, he was adamant about collecting wiqerice herbs to refine it. Besides, Gerald knew that the

mysterious person had definitely left it in the box for a reason.

As Gerald helplessly thought about how little he still knew about the mysterious person, Wagner began coughing

rather badly as he said, “I-if that’s the case… allow me to… accompany you…”

“…I’ll tend to your injuries first before anything else… Give me a moment to write a prescription for you… Tell your

people to grind the herbs once I’m done…”

Once everything was done, Gerald and Wagner hailed a taxi to head to the Enchanted Feast. Though it had already

gotten quite dark, the venue hosting the Enchanted Feast was brightly lit. It was also extremely crowded.

“Apologies, but this is a private event. If you don’t have an invitation card, then kindly leave,” said a security guard

rather rudely after walking up to the duo.

“An invitation card? Humph! I’m Wagner Yarne! Are you saying that even I require an invitation card?” replied

Wagner rather placidly.

Hearing that, the security guard’s eyes widened as he coldly said, “And who the hell is Mr. Yarne? I’ve never heard

of such a name! Look, if you don’t have an invitation card, then get lost! Also, you there! What are you looking at?

Do you think that just about any random person can attend the Enchanted Feast?”

“…Hmm? Say, Yasmeen! Look there! Isn’t that your university junior? He’s here too!” said a feminine voice from

behind Gerald.

Turning around, Gerald saw that it truly was Yasmeen and her friends. To think that they would bump into each

other again for the second time tonight.

“Hah! It seems that he wants to attend the Enchanted Feast to have some fun! Sadly, it looks like he was rejected

from entering!”

“What a foolish person! Did he go mad from being poor for so long? How could a random person like him even

think about participating in the Enchanted Feast all willy-nilly?”

As Yasmeen’s female friends continued laughing and talking among themselves, Yasmeen herself had her mouth

gaping so widely that an entire egg could probably fit in it.

When she finally recovered from her shock, Yasmeen asked in a surprised tone, “…Gerald? Why did you come

here…?”

“What other reason could there be? You know what they say, the poorer one is, the more they want to show off! He

must have come over to have a look around and take some pictures! I wouldn’t be surprised if he posted the

photos as ‘proof’ that he had attended the event!” whispered the women among themselves.

Though it was quite evident that Yasmeen’s friends were disgusted with Gerald, Gerald himself said nothing.

It wasn’t long before Yasmeen and her friends decided not to linger around Gerald any longer. After all, several

people were now looking at them.

Taking the initiative to get them away from Gerald, a man standing beside Yasmeen said, “That’s quite enough.

Let’s just head in already. After all, the event is about to begin.”

Hearing that, Wagner was filled with deep shame.

Giving the guard an indignant look, he then said, “Are you sure you don’t want to let us in? While the medicine

auction is organized under the name of the Enchanted Feast, last I checked, it doesn’t belong to the Minshall family!

Don’t you think you’re crossing the line a little?”

“As I’ve said, you’re prohibited from entering unless you have an invitation card!” replied the guard coldly.

“What’s wrong?” said a loud and clear female voice out of the blue.

The voice was so striking that several people immediately turned to look at the voice’s owner. Wagner—who

seemed to recognize the voice—on the other hand, instantly grew gloomy.

Turning around, both he and Gerald were greeted by the sight of a group of people walking toward them. With the

person leading the people being a tall, slim, and seemingly multiracial woman whose face was sharply contoured—

almost like a marble—it wasn’t hard to guess that she was the one who had shouted out earlier.

Her chin was raised high and hints of disdain could be seen in her eyes as she continued walking on while looking at

Wagner.

All the present security guards, on the other hand, shouted in unison, “A pleasure to have you, young lady!”
