Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1447

“…And where exactly is this other Crawford family…? Also, you mentioned something about other forces earlier…

What forces are they?” asked Peter. As was expected, this incident was far from simple…

“Nobody knows where the other Crawfords are. I simply know that my family would’ve been exterminated ages ago

had the King of Judgment Portal not stepped in. I do know, however, that the other Crawfords are exceedingly

strong… Even beyond your wildest imagination…! And as for the forces… Tell me, who do you think stands at the

peak of the world?” replied Yreth as she turned to look at Peter.

“I have no idea. However, I am certain that such a position isn’t reserved for a cryptic family like yours! I was

fortunate enough to meet several powerful people in the world, and I’m sure there are many others out there who

are equally as powerful! Regardless, the ones I’ve come across are undoubtedly stronger than those from cryptic

families like yours. Hell, they’re even more powerful than those from warrior families who have special blood types!

I do find it funny, though. After all, while all of you are nothing compared to them, all of you still consider yourselves

to be the most powerful families!”

“Hmm… Though what you just said is easily enough reason for me to kill you a hundred times over, only half of

what you said was true. For your information, my family truly is at the top in selected areas. However, just as

you’ve said, if we’re looking at things on a global scale, the true order is controlled by extremely powerful forces.

Even so, we’re protected by the thought of the King of Judgment Portal’s soul. With that in mind, nobody is daring

enough to shake that till the primary part of his soul is released by Gerald. Following that, his strength will greatly

increase, and with the additional help from the ancestor of my family, we’ll certainly be able to form another force

and compete against those people!”

“While that was the initial plan, the thought of my ancestor’s soul was ruined by Gerald before he was even able to

recover the primary part of his soul! Due to that, Gerald has to pay!” declared Yreth before taking in a deep breath.

Watching as she glared sternly at him, Peter then asked, “Is the Crawford family one of those forces?”

“But of course. Those people control everything! In fact, most of the innocents you mentioned were mutilated by

them, so they’re the person you should be hating! Regardless, once the Gunter family acquires Gerald and gains

control over the world, who knows, maybe the situation will end up becoming better!” replied Yreth, a hint of

delight in her tone.

“Apologies for being straightforward, but you’re far from capable of fighting against Gerald at your current

strength… Are you not afraid?” asked Peter as he looked at her sympathetically.

“Hahaha! Trying to scare me? Well, it certainly is true that Gerald owns mysterious powers… After all, the strength

of his soul alone was sufficient in ruining the thought of my ancestor’s soul…! However, you should know that he’s

way weaker than me. Even if he has gotten slightly stronger, what do you think this is?” asked Yreth as she revealed

a bead and showed it to Peter.

“This here, is a formation specially made to deal with Gerald… Once it’s activated, it’ll be impossible for him to

escape! I made sure to have this made since I’ve already heard rumors that it’s no longer effective against

Gerald…” sneered Yreth.

“…Rumors? ‘It’…?” asked Peter with a frown.

“I’m talking about the Dead Annie, of course. The strange plant that exists between heaven and earth… Back then,

I had used it as a sure-fire way to suppress Gerald, and though I planned to continue dealing with him using the

same method, to think that in the end, he actually managed to snatch the Dead Annie Mother away! With that in

mind, I feel that Dead Annies will no longer be useful against him!”

“…I see. Regardless, suit yourselves. I hope your family doesn’t come to regret your final choice!” replied Peter with

a nod.

“With all due respect, Lady Gunter, this person’s been putting our family down far too many times by this point. Do

allow me to teach him a lesson!” growled one of the Gunter disciples in dissatisfaction.

“As long as he’s still breathing by the time you’re done, you’re free to do whatever you want!” replied Yreth with a

slight nod.

What the disciple had said was true. Even under such circumstances, Peter didn’t seem to be the least afraid of the

Gunters, and it made Yreth seethe with anger. It was the reason why she wasn’t completely against teaching him a

lesson or two.

Upon getting Yreth’s approval, the disciple then took a step forward, ready to launch an attack! However, the

second he made his move, a beam of light suddenly shot toward him!

An explosive sound later, it took everyone a second to realize that the person’s arm had exploded! Not only that,

but the disciple had been flung to the side with such force, that he was now nothing but a lump of dead flesh.

Utterly shocked and horrified, all the Gunters slowly turned around to see who the culprit was. Even Yreth—whose

eyelids were now twitching extremely rapidly—did the same as she roared, “Who the hell did that…?!”

The immediate response she got, however, was a tight slap to her face! She wasn’t even able to come close to

dodging it!

Looking around in panic, Yreth felt another hard slap on her other cheek, sending several of her broken teeth

scattering across the ground!

Though she was now extremely dizzy, her anger had also amplified as she growled, “Who the hell are you…?!”

Seeing how helpless Yreth was against the assailant, all the other Gunters found themselves looking around in fear

as well. As immense terror peaked among those currently in the square, everyone heard a soft ‘thud’ behind them,

prompting them to look at where Peter was…

To their utter shock, Peter had broken free from his restraints! The thud had come from the fallen ropes that had

been cut clean in half… And the one who had cut them, was none other than Gerald! The youth who was currently

slowly descending onto the rockery in the middle of the square…!
