Gerald Crawford, The Invisible Rich Man

Chapter 2008-2009

Chapter 2008.

Despite Levi's counterattack, Yalinda is quite skilled with her whip. With that in mind, he immediately changed his attacking style, constantly attacking Levi with long-range whip attacks that prevented him from getting close.

Upon seeing that, Gerald-who had been watching the fight since the start-up-willedly widened his eyes in shock. After all, she had never seen Yalinda use a whip before.

However, with how skilled he was with the weapon, Gerald felt that Yalinda had spent a long time training for the competition.

While she must admit that Yalinda is an expert with whips, Gerald knows that she is no match for Levi. After all, she knew that Levi was still being lenient to her.

If Levi really decided to get serious, then Yalinda would definitely not have a chance to win. It was not that he was trying to belittle his student, but this was the reality of the situation.

Regardless, it wasn't long before Levi started to show his true abilities. Enveloping his sword in a shadowy aura, Levi then began sending shadowblade after shadowblade flying towards Yalinda!

Seeing that, Yalinda immediately whipped out her whip, twisting it swiftly before her to form a protective aura against her attack!

Unfortunately, Yalinda was a bit late. Even before he could fully lift his protective shield, one of the shadow swords hit the bottom of his whip, causing the whip to fly out of Yalinda's hand!

After realizing what had just happened, Yalinda instantly knew that she had lost. With that in mind, he immediately shouted,

"I admit defeat!"

Yalinda, for example, is not an idiot. Levi started using his original strength before, he already knew that he was not his opponent.

To be honest, he was grateful that he did not use too much of his strength. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to end the match unscathed.

After all, after hearing that, Levi sheathed his sword before smiling at Yalinda as she said, Levi she said,

"Must say, I'm quite impressed with the way you used your whip! I hope we will have another chance to fight again in the future! Maybe we can learn a thing or two from each other then!"

Smiling in response, Yalinda then nodded as she replied,

"Of course, Mr Homewood! Also, thank you for being so easy on me!"

After which, the two bowed politely to each other before leaving the arena. With that, Zenon took the opportunity to announce,

"And it's decided! The Homewood master of the aristocratic sword family was the winner!"

Shortly thereafter, Yalinda returned to her seat beside Gerald. Lowering his head somewhat weakly, he then muttered,

"...I'm sorry for losing, sir.! I must be embarrassing for you."

Smiling in response, Gerald simply replied,

"No need to apologize. Anyway, you did your best. After all, I knew from the beginning that Levi was much stronger than you. It was just your luck to face such a powerful opponent head on! Still, winning and losing is part of a competition like this, right?"

Gerald himself really meant what he said. After all, his disciple was clearly brave enough to fight someone far more formidable than him.

Whatever the case may be, now that he has said it, Gerald is compelled to ask, Gerald,

"Puppa-by the way.. How famous the Homewood family is in Shontel."

Based on the question alone, it was clear that his interest in the family had been piqued.

Chapter 2009.

"so. Can you introduce Levi to me? I want to meet him!" Answer Gerald.

"...Oh? Why so suddenly, sir?"

Yalinda asked somewhat curiously.

"Well, it never hurts to know more people. Besides, I feel like Levi is a good person!"

Clearly Gerald with a subtle smile.

"yeah. All right then! I'll take you to see him when I'm done!" Answer Yalinda.

After all, he had no reason to reject his master's suggestion. After all, the morning session of the competition ended at noon, and that was when Yalinda led Gerald to Levi.

They were also just in time because Levi was about to leave Gardale City when they found him. Seeing that, Yalinda immediately shouted,

"Mrs Homewood! Wait!"

After hearing Yalinda's familiar voice, Levi then turned around and waited for them. As soon as they were in front of him, he then smiled before asking,

"Why do I owe this pleasure, Miss Juans?"

Just laughing in response, Yalinda then said,

"Well, I'm not looking for you. My master is looking for you!"

"Oh? Your master, you say?"

Levi replied, feeling a little confused as he turned to look at Gerald.

Levi, for example, had witnessed Clyde's defeat at the hands of Gerald yesterday. While it was true that he had great admiration for Gerald afterwards, he still could not believe that master Yalinda looked the same age as him!

Either way, since Levi did not say anything, Gerald took the opportunity to smile before saying,

"Good day, Mr Homewood! As Yalinda said, I am her master. You can call me Gerald Crawford!"

Hearing that, Levi then flinched before replying,

"...Ah, yea! Forgive the silence, I'm just surprised that you wanted to meet me from the start! Anyway, I remember seeing you beat Clyde with just one move yesterday. Pretty impressive, I gotta say!"

"You flatter me, Sir. Anyway, Yalinda told me about you a while back, and it was an honor to meet you in person, Mr Homewood!"

Gerald answered, knowing full well that rich young masters like Levi liked it when others licked it.

As expected, Levi immediately smiled widely after hearing that. Laughing loudly, he then declared,

"Now you're just exaggerating, Mr Crawford! Anyway, I'm going to have a big lunch now. Do you two want to join me?"

"Well, since you've invited us so politely, how can we say no?" Answer Gerald.

Yalinda herself just smiled as she nodded. Wherever Gerald went, he would go, too. With that, the three of them left Gardale City together.

Unbeknownst to them, however, two men had been watching the party from a high platform inside Gardale City.
