Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1008

After saying that, the man who seemed to be around ninety years old actually bowed in front of Gerald! Although after she witnessed all that, it was actually no mystery why she did it.

Gerald himself can estimate that Caleb's current strength is similar to his own strength half a year ago. He also knew that Caleb had reached his inner strength.

Although he was clearly still weaker than Gerald, with Caleb's current abilities, the old man could be considered one of the champions.

With that, the bloodlust in Gerald's eyes gradually returned to normal. His imposing manner slowly decreased as well, making Kaleb finally sigh in relief.

“I can say that you have spent many years training to achieve your Inner Strength. It must not be easy, so I will not kill you. Just go warn the others to never try me again! ” Gerald said as his temperament returned to normal.

“Thank you for saving my life, and yes, I will definitely obey your orders, sir! However, there is one thing that I still do not understand,” replied Kaleb with a radiance of excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

"Continue."

“You know, after devoting my entire life to martial arts, I was finally able to become one of the champions about seven years ago. Even so, I still hope to someday be able to make my name written on the Weston Honor Roll to make a name for my family's Ancient Martial Arts. However, as expected, it was extremely difficult to get onto the honor list. I'd like to know what your ranking is on the honor list! ”

“Weston Honorary Scroll? I have never heard of such a thing.” Gerald replied rather calmly.

“Well, as long as one becomes a champion, he will naturally have a name added to the Weston Honor Roll. It's sort of a ranking list controlled by the four big secret societies in Weston. Still, although it is clear that you have practiced a lot, I find it strange that you are not aware of the honor list! Could it be that you are not one of the four great societies?” ask Caleb, wonder.

"There are four big secret societies?"

“Include! The families that organized the secret societies were Yallaton, Naplock, Moldell, and Ferguson! And here I think you are an expert of one of the four major secret societies!”

"I only heard about the Moldells!" gerald replied while raising his eyebrows slightly.

From what Gerald knows, the secret society is really very mysterious, as the title suggests. They rarely contact ordinary people because of the general agreement that their bloodline is different from ordinary people. As a result, they actually looked down on the commoners.

Gerald's introduction to the Moldell family has allowed him to understand just how much power and power a secret society can have.

“So.. After all, everyone on the honor list is very strong, and those from the four big secret societies occupy about eighty percent of the members on that list. I personally come from the Merrett family, and although I want to continue making a name for my family's Ancient Martial Arts, I'm embarrassed enough to admit that it's not as easy as I thought. Unfortunately, there are no other champions in the Merrett— family to compete for the position in the list of honor—baik since my ancestors until my generation have died,” replied Kaleb with a wry smile.

"I understand. Regarding the four great societies, how powerful are the most powerful people?” ask Gerald.

“I'm not too sure about that. However, according to rumors, there are great masters in the four great societies in charge of their respective families. As I said, what I heard was only rumors because even those from the four great secret societies were unable to discern the authenticity of that claim at all!”

"Now that you know more about the Weston Honor Roll, I wonder if your name is already there... Judging from your strength, you should easily be in the top fifty people on the honor list!" kaleb said respectfully as he carefully picked up the old scroll hidden behind his sleeve.

Opening it up for Gerald to see, it seemed like only the top two hundred people whose names were recorded there.

"I've never even heard of the Weston Honor Roll before you told me about it ... There's no way my name's in there ..."

As Gerald turned to read the scroll, he pointed where the first place was before asking, “...Wait, why is the first place empty? Looks like someone accidentally deleted his name.”

“Ah, well, let's just say the first person is very mysterious. Based on what my father told me, the one who was given first place was almost invincible, even from a young age. Once he was older, he even dealt with some experts from the four great secret societies alone! However, in the end, none of them could come close to defeating him! ”

“While many are trying to investigate his background, their attempts always fail because no one can find where the person is! As my father said back then, as long as that person was alive, no one could be considered stronger than him. It turns out that everyone thinks so too, so it has become a tradition where the first place is always empty,” obviously Caleb who is very interested in things related to honor roll.

"I appreciate the explanation" Gerald replied with a nod.

"By the way, since you saved my life and it's almost noon, I wonder if I can have the freedom to buy you into a big party," suggested Caleb who seems to be trying to befriend Gerald.

Since Caleb knew quite a lot, Gerald felt that he would be able to gather more information about certain things if he allowed the old man to treat him to lunch. As a result, he simply nodded before saying, “Sure. I'll call my friend first to tell him about the situation. Give me a minute.”
