Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1048

Upon hearing the name, both Kort and Parker fell silent for a moment.

“... From what you said, I assume that you know my third uncle, Christopher, who is also the elder of the Moldell family, right? Still, I find it strange that he never mentioned 'Daryl' before, ” replied Kort, feeling his heart beating fast.

Even among other secret societies, few people know much about the mysterious Christopher who, in a sense, is a totem of the Moldell family.

As far as Kort knew, the Crawford family was just an ordinary wealthy family. How could Daryl possibly get to know the old man?

“If I remember correctly, 'secret societies' like yours each have strict rules to abide by. The universal rule for all of you is the fact that you cannot engage with the ordinary world inevitably, right? But that's what you bastards do! What's more, you even built your own family from the ground up, only to be able to intervene more with the ordinary world! You are even brave enough to declare wanting to destroy the Crawford family! Don't you bastard think that you underestimated the rules of the Moldell family too much? ” said Daryl, ignoring Kort's question as he headed to the seat of honor and sat there laughing heartily.

“...Old Master Crawford, exactly which class are you from? You're just a powerful and wealthy businessman, aren't you? How do you know what goes on inside a secret society like the back of your hand?” ask Kort.

“Huh. I belong to the Soul Palace. Then again, I wonder if Christopher ever mentioned that society to you. ”

“...S-Soul Palace..?” kort replied, feeling his eyelids twitch very quickly.

"That's the people from the Soul Palace!" the remaining Kort's men stuttered as they looked at each other anxiously before each took a step back.

For anyone in the secret society, it was somewhat impossible not to hear the reputation of the Soul Palace. For context, there were once several large secret societies in Weston. However, one of the more advanced and prosperous secret societies — at that time — was completely annihilated by the Soul Palace in one night.

The people from the Soul Palace usually left behind a trace of their involvement so that others could come looking for them if they wanted revenge. However, no one was brave or stupid enough to do so.

Because of that famous incident — among the secret society — it was natural for Kort and his men to be a little intimidated.

“So, you are the ruler of the Palace of Souls just as you are from the Crawford family, Daryl, but I think I finally see the bigger picture now.”.

“What exactly does the awareness of who I am reveal to you?”

Hearing that, an enraged Daryl roared, "You b*stard!"

Although Daryl did not move an inch, Kort could feel his cheeks being slapped hard, twice! He didn't even have a chance to fight!

“Remember, I've lived a long time! The third son and your family members are nothing more than trivial bastards in my eyes! Although trivial, why would I want to waste brain cells to think of how to handle it properly? How frustrating!”

Kort himself only cupped his injured cheek, not daring to say a word for now.

Seeing his reaction, Dylan and the other Crawford became extremely excited.

“...I never thought that you would have this much power, father... By the way, weren't our people the ones who massacred the Moldells in Logan Province back then?” dylan asked who had gained almost unlimited confidence now that he saw how powerful his father really was.

As Daryl watched his son sit beside him, he sighed before replying, “How do I say this.. Well, I, for example, did not do it. However, it was actually Crawford who did the deed. To be honest, I would have done it myself if I didn't really care about seniority. After all, those b*stards were none other than robbers who had had had thoughts of acquiring the Crawford family for over twenty years now. With all the nasty tricks they have used over the years, I am really surprised that they are still so dissatisfied, even after slaughtering the Morningstar family, ” explained Daryl, his anger was evident in his tone of voice.

Kort felt the corners of his lips twitch upon hearing that.

"…Oh? So it was actually done by someone from our family? But other than you, who else has that much power?” ask Dilan confused.

“I also wondered, grandfather. By the way, why didn't you show up earlier? Our family would not face so much danger today if you had just done so! In any case, kill them all today and make sure none of them escape! ” exciting Jessica.

"Ha ha ha! I never thought that my granddaughter would take away my personality! I like you better than my cowardly grandson!” daryl replied while laughing out loud.

“Yeah, let's just say I didn't come early because of some personal issues that I don't want to share at the moment. After all, I don't even have to deal with this mere bastard, my good grandson ... Now come here .. "add Daryl while turning to look at the black-robed man.

"Go check if the young master has returned," the old man ordered.
