Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1070
“It was a little after dusk back then… Just like how it is now! The sun had already set by then and it was getting increasingly dark… At the time, we came across a river and my father told me that we were going to set up camp there. Once everything was set up, we headed to the river to gather some water for the next day… Approaching the river together, it was then when we saw her!”

As everyone stared wide-eyed at the Master of the Desert, he continued, “Capra Nanny was drinking water by the riverside, and though I wasn’t able to properly see her face under the moonlight, I remember clearly that she had an extremely long tongue and her hair was long and messy.”

“Stopping in our tracks, the old woman raised her head and made eye contact with us. It was only a brief moment, but both her eyes were green! Thankfully, my father snapped me out of it in time as he shouted, ‘Don’t look at her, Billy! Turn around, right this instant!’”

“Upon saying that, my father immediately turned around and knelt on the sand. I did the same, remembering that he had once told me that should one ever come across Capra Nanny, they have to turn their backs against her and never look behind!”

“…What happened after that?” asked one of the tourists.

“Well, she slowly walked over to both me and my father. However, her footsteps were so light that they were barely audible, save for the soft rustling of sand. At that point, childlike voices from behind us began whispering, “Don’t look at her, Billy~! Turn around~! Right this instant~! Of course, I didn’t listen to those sinister-sounding voices. Afterward, my father told me that it was Capra Nanny’s attempt to speak in our language through mimicry!”
