Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1176

After successfully escaping from Montholm Island, Gerald immediately took the sea route to Mount Langvern in Halimark City.

However, it was not long before he realized that someone had locked his aura! No matter how much he tried to get rid of the person who was tracking him, he failed to do so!

'Is it really God's will that I will never be able to find Mila and Second Uncle...?' Gerald thought inwardly somewhat anxiously.

What kind of incredible supernatural power does Queena have…? To be honest, he was probably the only other true top master Gerald had ever encountered other than Finnley. Really scary!

Despite knowing how likely he was to face, Gerald persevered, willingly spending the remaining bit of strength as long as there was still a glimmer of hope.

It was about three in the morning when Gerald finally arrived at the foot of Mount Langvern.

At that moment, the person who locked his aura also felt closer than before. Knowing that he could catch up to her soon if she continued to wander around even longer, Gerald immediately started running up the mountain.

However, once he arrived at Langvern Church, he was completely dumbfounded. The whole church is empty!

Because the area was so dusty, Gerald felt it safe to assume that everyone who used to follow the activities here had long been displaced from the building. Not wanting to give up without trying, Gerald tried to find traces of the aura within the church. To his dismay, he could not detect a single soul inside other than his soul.

“...How can this..!” gerald said to himself, looking a little lost and silent as he stood in the room behind where Ghost had once taken him.

His current situation was similar to an arrangement where he had just managed to light a fire after much difficulty. However, before he could even begin to warm himself, someone had splashed a basin of cold water all over his body.

In other words, after going through so much, this is a visualization of how disappointed Gerald feels now.

However, what shocked Gerald the most was knowing that Ghost and the others were leaving so suddenly. Why did they leave at the beginning…?

Becoming very alert immediately, Gerald realized that the voice calling his name was coming from the living room. However, even after searching the place with his mind, he could not detect any life form anywhere…

“Gerald... Gerald..” repeats the soft child-like voice again as a creak that sounds like a wheel is heard.

To Gerald's astonishment, he saw the loose board suddenly begin to shift.. A few seconds later, a kind of small robot—which seemed to be made with a bamboo— slowly walked towards him.

Although it appears to be made entirely of bamboo, the robot itself has a unique appearance that resembles a very lively young girl— around the age of five—which has two 'braids'.

His eyes glowed green, he looked at Gerald before calling out, "Gerald ..."

"…Yes?"

“So you're finally here! I've been waiting for you for so long until I almost ran out of battery!” answer the little robot.

"What's? You're waiting for me? Can you really have consciousness?” ask Gerald in wonder.

“Of course! Master Ghost is the one who left me here to wait for you, you know? I am his most special and mysterious work! In fact, I am even smarter than most computers! You can call me Zenny!”

“...It's nice to meet you, Zenny. From what you said, I assumed that Master Ghost had predicted that I would come here ... Does he have a message for me? ask Gerald.

"Indeed! You know, during your last visit, Master Ghost had asked to predict your fate. However, since you rejected his offer, Master Ghost could not force a reading on you. As a result, once you leave, the Ghost Master secretly reads your fate by using the Nine Dragons Divination Technique through the use of the fingerprints you left behind. After knowing everything that was going to happen, he realized that what was going to happen next would most likely affect the lives of at least a hundred people within the church. As a result, Master Ghost and the others had already left long ago. However, he left me so that I could pass on some messages to you! He really hopes that his words will help you through your current crisis!” zenny explained.

“How attentive was he.. I admit now that I was probably too selfish and arrogant back then.. After all, what did Master Ghost want to say to me, Zenny?”
