Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1826
“…Huh? That… That’s impossible! I’m sure they were in this room not too long ago!” exclaimed the puzzled innkeeper.
“…Are you trying to make a fool out of me?” growled the clearly pissed off Mr. Panther as he grabbed the innkeeper by his collar!
“I-I wouldn’t even dream of pranking you, Mr. Panther! I swear on my life that they really were here earlier!” explained the terrified innkeeper.
Before Mr. Panther could even retort, he was suddenly flung out of the room by what appeared to be a sudden strong gust of wind! In truth, the ‘wind’ was, in fact, Gerald, who had just rushed toward Mr. Panther and grabbed the man by his neck!
However, since the others couldn’t see Gerald in his current form, the duo could only stare in confusion, completely unaware of what was really happening.
Whatever the case was, with one strong squeeze, a sickening snap could be heard… Gerald had just broken Mr. Panther’s neck!
Knowing full well now that Mr. Panther had had dirty thoughts on Juno and Yrsa, there was no way he was ever going to show mercy on the b*stard…
Upon realizing that Mr. Panther was now dead, the terrified innkeeper and the other man instantly began panicking as they attempted to run for their lives! Sadly for them, Gerald wasn’t about to spare anyone tonight.
Flying straight after them, Gerald then easily kicked both men across the inn’s corridors!
While the other man instantaneously died from the kick, the terror-stricken innkeeper was still alive.
Now lying on the ground, the innkeeper was so frightened that he barely registered that his bladder had just given in…
Unsure what to even do, the innkeeper then began begging for mercy as he knelt on the ground. To be quite frank, Gerald found the man’s pitiful crying and begging to be rather amusing.
With that in mind, Gerald then stood before the innkeeper before suddenly making himself visible.
Glaring straight into the confused and terrified innkeeper’s eyes, Gerald then said, “I knew something was wrong with you… I’m glad I trusted my gut! Regardless, do share with me what you were planning to do to us tonight…”
Since Gerald was currently in his ghost form, he looked downright terrifying, so much so, in fact, that the innkeeper quickly found himself passing out!
Seeing that, Gerald couldn’t help but snicker. Still, he wasn’t about to let the innkeeper off that easily.
With that, Gerald then lifted the unconscious man up before tying him to a chair with some strong rope.
Following that, he made sure to lock the inn’s entrance as tightly as possible to ensure that nobody would find out about what had happened inside the building. With that done, Gerald then quickly disposed of Mr. Panther’s body.
After cleaning up the scene, he then bolted back to his physical body… causing Rey to almost die of shock when the previously ‘unconscious’ Gerald suddenly sat up!
“B-brother Gerald…! You’re awake! What happened just now? Why did you end up passing out all of a sudden?” asked the bewildered Rey once he snapped out of his shock.
Realizing that Rey didn’t know about his out-of-body capabilities, Gerald simply said, “You’ll find out about it one day!”
Naturally, that only made Rey feel even more confused about all this. Even so, since Gerald wasn’t willing to tell him about it now, he believed that there was a reason for that. Due to that, Rey didn’t press Gerald for answers.
“Either way, it’s safe for us to go out and have a look around now!” said Gerald as he opened the room’s door and began walking downstairs…
