All Chapters of The Secretly Rich Man: Chapter 1911 - Chapter 1920

Understanding that staying here for any longer would only spell more trouble, after resting for a bit, Gerald got to his feet before saying, “Alright, let’s leave this place while we can!” With that, the duo made their way back to the sealed main entrance… Once they were there, they quickly realized that there wasn’t a mechanism to open the doors at all, at least not one they could easily see… The pitch darkness of the place certainly didn’t help… Understanding the fact that they didn’t even know where to start looking for the mechanism, Rey couldn’t help but stare at the massive stone wall—blocking the cave’s entrance—before looking at Gerald and asking, “…How… should we leave, Mr. Crawford…?” “…Well, since there was a mechanism outside that allowed us to enter, I’m sure there’s another one in here that will allow us to leave! Since the Yin and Yang sides—based on the layout of The Eight Diagrams—was the key to opening the door from the outside, I’m assuming that the mechanism

“It’s fine if you don’t get it. Whatever the case is, I’m going to be having an out-of-body experience now to check if my theory is correct! With that said, be sure to guard my body well in the meantime!” said Gerald. “Got it, Mr. Crawford! Do be careful!” replied Rey as Gerald nodded before lying down… Shortly after, his ghost form shot out from his body before diving downward! Continuing to dive deeper and deeper, Gerald eventually came across the source of the duo’s plight… True to Gerald’s guess, there really was a giant mechanism underneath them this entire time! With that mystery solved, Gerald knew that in order for them to escape this hellish loop, they would need to take a literal leap of faith after finding a specific number on the stairs… If they didn’t, they could very well end up living the rest of their lives on these stairs… Regardless, now that he had learned all this, Gerald bolted back to his physical body… and upon re-entering it, he instantly yelled, “Bing

“W-what should we do now, Mr. Crawford…?” whispered Rey, gulping as he stared at all the giant scorpions around them. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t see an opening for them to escape at all! “Stay calm! I’m thinking!” replied Gerald as he continued looking around, hoping that it would help him devise an escape plan. Thankfully, it wasn’t long after before Gerald spotted a large door leading out of this area. With their escape route in his sight, Gerald quickly whispered, “Rey, do you see that large door at your twelve o’clock?” Turning to look in that direction, Rey then nodded before replying, “I do!” “Good, now listen up. The plan is simple. You rush over to open that door while I distract the scorpions! Got it?” explained Gerald. “L-loud and clear!” replied Rey, knowing that that was their best bet of surviving this encounter. Hearing that, Gerald then drew his Astrabyss Sword before pushing Rey with his other hand while yelling, “Good! Now go!” As Rey nodd

Looking at Gerald’s raised eyebrow, Rey couldn’t help but ask, “Is… something wrong, Mr. Crawford…? Did you find something…?” “…See that symbol there? I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before…” muttered Gerald as he continued flipping through his memories… Sometime later, he suddenly yelled, “I remember now!” Following that, Gerald fished the map out before quickly scanning through it. Raising a slight brow, Rey then inched closer to look at the map as well… and when he finally realized that the exact symbol—on the casket—could be found on the map, Rey immediately exclaimed, “…Holy, is that… Then… Instead of going after the treasure, Tye was trying to locate this tomb this entire time…?!” “I’m guessing so!” replied Gerald with a nod, finally a hundred percent sure that Tye was up to no good. But what was he scheming…? As Gerald was wondering about that, Tye and his men finally made it to Moonbeam Village… Despite Gerald taking pity on them and allowing them to live, Tye

Moving back to Gerald and Rey, they had no way of knowing about the massacre that had taken place at Moonbeam Village. Even so, it was pretty much guaranteed that Gerald wouldn’t let Tye and his men off the second he found out about what they had done… Regardless, since they were both standing before the casket now, Rey was prompted to ask, “Should… we open the casket and have a look inside, Mr. Crawford…?” “Negative. I truly believe that something terrible will happen if we do,” replied Gerald, instantly causing Rey to give up on his idea. Even so, he couldn’t help but remain curious about the contents of the golden casket. After all, Tye had been trying so hard to search for it. What kind of treasures lay within…? “…Say, Mr. Crawford? What kinds of treasures do you think are in this tomb for Tye to travel so far just to obtain them…?” asked Rey. Shaking his head in response, Gerald then said, “I have no idea, though I believe the things he’s after lies within that casket!”
