The Secretly Rich Man novel Chapter 1122


Chapter1122
Turning to look at the second mural, Gerald saw that it was about the lady in white’s burial. On the day of her burial itself, a thunderstorm seemed to be present.

Inclusive of the old man, Gerald counted—relatively easily—thirty-seven people in the next image, with nine people standing in each of the four rows that were drawn. With the thunderstorm still raging on, the people in this team seemed to be the only ones who had been chosen to set off to the palace of the goddess.

Halfway through their journey there, they appeared to halt at an island to take a short rest.

However, something happened soon after as was seen on the third mural. The ones on the island were greeted by the sight of a giant ship!

This wasn’t the first time Gerald had seen this ship either. It was exactly similar to the one he had seen in the tomb before this.

Seeing the oddly-shaped massive ship hovering atop the island, the thirty-six people the beggar had brought along immediately fell to their knees in terror and began worshiping it. From what Gerald could assume, they were all under the impression that some god was descending.

Following that, Gerald’s eyes widened as he saw a man dressed in a black robe—who was also wearing an odd mask—descend the giant ship before pointing at the goddess’s coffin.

The sight of the man alone was enough to make Gerald feel extremely anxious. After all, he was dressed exactly like the men Lyra had seen in the picture of the sun!

Was this hinting that he would be killed by those from the Sun League in the near future…? Frowning to himself, Gerald then continued reading.

Now nearing the end of the third mural, Gerald saw the old beggar jumping into the giant ship before walking into it. As for the others, they appeared to be trying to carry the coffin away…

Moving on to the fourth mural, it began by showing the old beggar continuing his journey with his group of men. Apparently, what happened in the giant ship was completely skipped.

Odder still was the fact that instead of thirty-six people like there were before, only twenty-seven remained… Where had the nine people disappeared to?

However, Gerald didn’t have the time to dwell on that due to how unreal the next set of images was.
