Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1375
“…The boss is here?” asked Chester, unsure how to even react to that statement.
“Hahaha! It won’t be long before we’re saved! Just you f*cking wait, you Gunters! Once we’re free, I’m definitely
setting this place on fire!” growled Aiden in rage.
A little while later, Felton and Yume arrived at Yreth’s room.
Upon entering, he found that the layout of the room wasn’t particularly complicated. Quite minimalistic, in fact. The
only notable things in there were a desk at one side of the room and a shelf behind it.
“…Is this where the secret room is…?” asked Felton.
“It should be… After all, Grandma has two secret rooms, as far as I’m aware of. I’m not sure whether you know
about this or not, but grandma had a secret room that was accessible through her special study. It was where she

much younger… With that in mind, there should be some contraption here that opens a path behind the shelf. If it’s
anything similar to the way grandma revealed the secret room in her study, then…”
As Yume’s voice trailed off, Gerald watched as she walked to the side of the study before holding onto a pen’s cap—
that was on the table—and twisting it slightly…
A brief ‘click’ was heard, and all of a sudden, the shelf began trembling as it slowly slid to the side, revealing a
darkened hole leading underground!
Noticing how surprised she looked, Gerald then asked, “…Didn’t you say you saw her exit that place before…?”
“Well, I did… But it’s vastly different from the secret room entrance that I remember as a child… Besides, can’t you
feel that…? The strange coldness coming from the hole…” muttered Yume in her bewilderment.
“…Whatever the case is, let’s enter first… Follow me!”
Quite honestly, Gerald himself had felt a chill run down his spine as well. There was just some sort of extraordinary
aura that the hole emitted… and whatever it was, it scared Gerald greatly.
Within the hole was a long corridor, and secret compartments—filled with all sorts of things—were lined all across
it.
Lighting an oil lamp that she found, Yume then began looking around…
Eventually, she shouted, “I… I think I’ve found it!”
Watching as she joyfully held onto a blue jade charm, Gerald himself began sensing an enigmatic aura that was
slowly growing stronger. With that in mind, he then said in a slightly fearful voice, “…Its aura is very similar to the
aura of the magic artifacts on both Aiden and Chester’s bodies. This should be it. Now let’s not waste any more
time and leave this place already!”
“Alright!”

However, just as they were about to leave, both of them suddenly heard a loud scraping noise…
By the time they realized what was happening, the opening to the corridor had been sealed off, leaving the duo
surrounded only by dead silence!
Just as Yume was about to investigate, she suddenly felt an immense force pulling onto her, prompting her to
scream!
Gerald himself had sensed the strong suction force, and though he immediately used his Thunder Eruption skill in
his attempt to resist it, the force eventually got so strong that it almost felt like he was being sucked into a black
hole!
Unable to continue resisting the force by that point, both Gerald and Yume fell to the ground in unison… Only to fall
into yet another chamber that was made of stone!
The second they hit the floor of the new area, all the lights within it instantly lit up.
Looking up, both of them then saw a ghostly black light hovering around in mid-air.
As if that wasn’t already shocking enough, the orb of darkness suddenly deafeningly shouted, “Haha! I’ve been
waiting for someone other than Yreth to stumble in here! Tell me, are both of you descendants of the Gunter
family?”
