Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1160

After all, when he had last enquired Welson about the flower back when he was still on the island, Welson had told

Gerald that after his grandpa founded the Soul Palace, he had gone to the Western Regions. While he was traveling

northwest, he had apparently found the seeds to that flower by accident. Though he had an entire garden of it, he

had only planted them for their beauty. In other words, Gerald had been told that his grandpa didn’t know about the

flower’s mysterious properties at all.

 

What more, from what Lord Fenderson had just told Gerald, it seemed that his grandfather had found the flower

much, much earlier than what Welson had told him! His grandpa had apparently even told Lord Fenderson that the

flower was owned solely by the Crawfords!

What contrasting statements!

“Indeed. It’s a nameless flower, after all. ‘There are only two petals that bloom, and each petal represents a

world…’ That was the stunning statement that that old man had told me back then, you know?” said Bryson as he

shook his head with a bitter smile on his face.

‘It’s that sentence again!’ Gerald thought to himself, now finding the entire situation more suspicious than ever.

Why on earth would his grandfather say the exact same words as that strange old woman had…?

With so many questions in mind, Gerald began listening even more intently as Lord Fenderson continued speaking.

“Regardless, I then asked him what his odd statement meant. In response, he told me that by looking at the

nameless flower’s unique shape, the flower could be split into two identical spaces. Regardless of whichever space

one chose, the things they would see, hear, and feel would be exactly the same. Even so, the two spaces would still

be completely different from one another. In other words, ‘two petals bloom, and each petal represents a world.’”

“But grandpa, why would there be two similar but completely different spaces?” asked Jasmine who had been

standing at the side this entire time.

“I asked him the same thing as well back then. Following that, he gave me an example that I’ll now relay. According

to Gerald’s grandfather, the nameless flower has a special ability in which it’s able to modify a person’s mentality

as well as their sensory organs. To be more specific, the flower can use its strange mind control ability to make you

feel that an object is similar to another object, even if it’s completely different from the actual object before you.

Take this room for example. Have a good look around. When you’re exposed to the nameless flower’s ability, it

makes you feel like you’re in this exact room, even if you’re in a completely different room! You should be able to

understand it a bit better after hearing that example. I, for one, surely didn’t back then, and I had even joked

around with him at the time by treating him like an extremely weird person…” explained Bryson as he shook his

head again, the bitter smile still on his face.

Now that he was at the age where he was already a foot in the grave, Bryson seemed slightly melancholic as he

reminisced the events of that year.

While that was Bryson’s reaction, when he and Jasmine turned to look at Gerald, they found that he had gone

extremely pale. In fact, his current expression looked far more unpleasant than when he was still unconscious.

“Is something the matter, Gerald?” asked both Bryson and Jasmine in unison.

Gerald—who was already furrowing his brow—was already deep in thought by then, so he didn’t reply.

‘So that’s the true meaning of ‘each petal represents a world…’ Thinking back, while the old woman had clearly

entered the cave, she didn’t have the goldfish tail ‘key’ with her… In other words, it wouldn’t make sense to assume

that she would be able to leave the king of the ocean’s palace from the other side… I still remember stopping her

at the entrance of the cave…’

After waking up from his brief moment of unconsciousness back then—due to the old woman using the Dead

Annies on them again—he had entered the king of the ocean’s palace together with Chester. However, there

weren’t any traces of the old woman there at all.

The only additional thing in there was that large, black coffin…

‘Speaking of which, I remember finding it strange that the giant dragon’s bones weren’t present back inside the

palace… As for the black coffin, there wasn’t even any mention of it at all in the previous murals…’

Everything just kept getting stranger and stranger the more he thought about it.

Back before all this happened, Gerald had simply wanted to bring the woman in white and the eternal coffin back to

the surface… According to the procedures on the murals, the door of the tomb should’ve been opened the moment

he inserted the goldfish tail key.

Instead, the heavens fell and the ground split open! It was completely different from what the murals had shown.

‘Also, why wasn’t I calm at that moment…? Thinking back, it almost seems like there was a force that had captured

me at my weakest moment in order to add more momentum to the incident…’

While all this was already quite worrying, there was one particular thought that truly made him extremely anxious.

‘…Was… Was the place I had gone to truly the king of the ocean’s palace…? Did I meet the real woman in white? If

I’m to believe that each petal truly represents a different world…’

‘…Then could I have entered another space? If that’s the case, then…’

‘Who did I save?’
