Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1902 Hearing that, Yann then chimed in, “Indeed! We’ve already walked for two hours anyway. Let’s take a short rest!”
Understanding that the duo didn’t have his stamina and endurance, Gerald could only agree with them. After all, exhaustion during a journey was best avoided…
Nodding, Gerald replied, “Sure, why not. Let’s take a short break!”
With that, the trio sat by the stream to enjoy a well-deserved rest…
While Gerald didn’t do anything in particular, Rey and Yann began washing their faces with the stream’s water and even began drinking it.
However, shortly after the duo quenched their thirst, Rey happened to see something stuck at the bottom of the crystal-clear stream… Squinting at the object, his eyes immediately widened when he realized what it was.
Startled to hear Rey screaming out of the blue, Gerald was immediately prompted to ask, “What is it?!” “M-Mr. Crawford…! Look there…! It… It’s a human bone…!” replied the quivering Rey as he immediately backed away from the stream.
Upon hearing that, Yann quickly ran over to have a look… and once he saw that Rey wasn’t fibbing, Yann and Rey immediately began vomiting. After all, they had drunk the same water where the bone had been in!
Gerald himself calmly walked toward the stream before pulling the bone out…
Inspecting it, Gerald couldn’t help but say, “How odd… Arandom human bone in the water…? Could someone have died here…?”
After looking at it for a while longer, Gerald realized something unsettling.
“Hey, come look at this! The way the bone snapped couldn’t have been done by another person… After all, it looks like it was damaged by something feral on the hunt…” muttered Gerald, prompting Rey to quickly begin looking around.
“.A-are you suggesting that there’s a fierce beast lurking around, Mr. Crawford…2” stuttered Rey.
“Most likely!” replied Gerald with a nod as he got up from his squatting position before tossing the bone away. Naturally, this quickly made Rey and Yann nervous.
“T-then let’s hurry and leave this place, Mr. Crawford…!” said Rey, not wanting the fierce beast to suddenly ambush them. Nodding in response, Gerald was just about to begin leaving the area with his party… when all of a sudden, the trio froze.
After all, all three of them had noticed that a fanged monster was glaring straight at them not too far away…!
While neither of them made a sound in the first few seconds, eventually, Rey wasn’t able to hold back from whispering, “M-Mr. Crawford… What now-“
“Hush!” whispered Gerald in return as he placed his palm over Rey’s mouth.
Following that, Gerald gestured for the duo to slowly inch their way to the side, not wanting to alarm the beast. While making their move, all three of them kept an eye on the monster, not wanting it to get a
free chance to ambush them…
However, they had only taken a few steps when the monster suddenly let out an ear-piercing roar!
“God d*mnit! It sounds angry too! Run!”
