Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1305

With that, the Gunters and the people from the Portal of Judgment agree to work together to hunt down Gerald. It is clear that searching for Gerald is essential to Yreth and the Portal of the King of Judgment.

At the same time, the two powers are also well aware that even Queena—which has the Divine Dark Forces—seek Gerald. Unlike them, however, Queena's goal to find Gerald is to get her to marry him.

Despite the obvious differences in their interest in finding Gerald, both Lady Gunter and the Portal of the King of Judgment remain sure to keep a close eye on Queena's actions.

In any case, the task of finding Gerald was given mainly to Felton and Hogan.

While Gunters did hold complete control over the Ancient City, their true influence spanned the entirety of Querton City.

With that in mind, the Gunters immediately ordered Simes—from the town of Querton— to help them search for Gerald by utilizing a large group of people as well as providing the necessary resources.

Even with so many people dedicated to hunting down Gerald, however, Yreth was unable to find him at all despite having investigated every place he could think of in Qerton City! Naturally, this made him very angry.

Finally, every nook and cranny in the city had been searched, although there was still no sign of Gerald…

At the time, both Felton and Hogan were already feeling extremely anxious over their failure to find Gerald, even after a week. With that, the two then headed to the slum city with a team— provided by Simes— consisting of about two hundred people.

'If we still fail to find him here, then Dordwell Heights is the only place left for us to search ...' Felton thought in his heart very firmly.

He knows for sure that Gerald hasn't left town since his grandmother previously used Dead Annies to check on Gerald's whereabouts. But where is he ...?

…

Meanwhile, the, an adorable little girl — whose hair was tied in pigtails and looked to be about six years old — was seen standing in the small courtyard of a house inside the shanty town as she happily said, “I'll be leaving for school now. , Brother Crawford and Sister Monica! I'll come play with you again tomorrow! Oho! And these are some of the eggs my mother told me to give you!”

Turning to look at the figures of the older brother and sister, he then smiled before adding, "Since you are sick, be sure to eat more eggs to get healthier faster, Brother Crawford!"

Hearing that, the woman—who was standing beside—l went on to laugh out loud.

Of course, the 'Brother Crawford' in question was none other than Gerald. Although he was now much better after the man had healed him, his body was still very weak at the moment. As for 'Sister Monica', she is the woman who has been guarding Gerald — along with the middle-aged man — all this time, and her full name is Monica Leonard.

“Good girl! But yes, I will make sure your brother Crawford eats a lot of eggs until he is healthy again! Don't worry, I'll watch him!” monica replied with a smile.

Still, he actually suffered severe injuries this time, and it was no exaggeration to say that he could easily die back then after being tortured so much by Hogan. By the time he was saved, not only had most of his veins and bones been broken, but he had also suffered from terrible internal injuries as well as extremely powerful poison.

Even so, from the point of view of the middle-aged man, Gerald had been good enough ever since he managed to escape with his life intact. Still, while the man predicted that Gerald would only regain consciousness after at least a month had passed, he really did not expect the young man to wake up just three days later!

The fact that her broken bones and internal injuries healed so quickly made Monica both terrified and jealous of Gerald's unique physical—and quite frankly abnormal.

While it was true that she had regained consciousness on the third day she was there, she could only get out of bed on the sixth day, which was the day before.

Because of how weak Gerald was currently—because his body was still in the process of recovery—the middle-aged man left for Dordwell Heights in the morning to collect herbs for him again.

Speaking of the man, ever since Gerald regained his senses, he had found the middle-aged man very familiar and friendly, although he was unsure if it was just a biased point of view because of the man, the man, after all, it had saved her life.

Both Monica and the man are quite mysterious to Gerald.

After all, when asked where she came from, Monica refused to give a clear answer. All he knew about her was that she had been living by the man's side for two years now.

The man himself was even more confusing. After all, even though Gerald had repeatedly asked him why he had suddenly appeared to save her, the man simply avoided giving a straight answer. Not wanting to continue being rude to his savior, Gerald immediately decided not to pry any further.

Instead, he chose to obey the man's order to stay in the slum of— for the time being—to recuperate with peace of mind.

As for the little girl from before, she used the name Sierra. Throughout his waking years, Gerald had known the cute and kind girl quite well. From what he was told, she was the youngest daughter of the family of Elias Leakin, who was one of the families here in the slum.

He also discovered that when he was young, he fell seriously ill. However, ever since he was saved by the man, he treated him like his godfather, which explains why he keeps coming to his house whenever he can.

In fact, she was so often there that she was assigned to wipe Gerald's face for him every day. Moreover, he even brought a lot of food for her! The fact that most meals consist of candy and snacks— Sierra— most preferred foods certainly warms Gerald's heart.

Apart from that, Gerald waved at the girl — who was now running while waving towards her — before shouting, “Bye, Sierra!”

From what she said, the girl was studying in middle grade kindergarten …
