Chapter 649 Good luck comes one after another
"The crown was stolen?"

Eden said in surprise.

"It happened suddenly. Just when the king was about to show the crown to everyone, the queen who went to the royal family's treasury discovered that it had been stolen."

Althea described it this way,
"This was probably an insider's work."

Eden nodded slightly, what the princess said made sense.

"It's just that the crown was stolen. It probably has nothing to do with the Fahora sect."

Eden said.

The crown was stolen at this point in time, making it difficult to tell whether it was closely connected to other events or whether it was just an isolated incident.

"maybe."

Althea nodded and chuckled:
"I hope that prince never gets his crown back, unless I leave here."

"Anything else?"

After hearing Eden's question, Althea thought for a while and then said:
"There are clues about the materials you mentioned. Among them, the narwhal's teeth and Olay honey may be in the hands of Mrs. Shaddock, while the latter was given to the monks of the Fahola sect. "

The monks of the Fahora sect…

Eden thought that since he was here, it was time to go deep into the Fahora sect as an envoy.

"It seems that Olei honey is not difficult to get, but narwhal teeth..."

Before she finished speaking, Althea took it over and said with a calm smile:

"Oh, good knight, your patron has his own ideas."

Eden raised an eyebrow.

"You can follow me to see Mrs. Shaddock tomorrow. At the banquet, I learned about what kind of person she is from the queen's mouth. Believe me, I am the best at dealing with these widows who stay alone in their boudoir."

Althea showed a proud look.

Hearing Althea's confident words, Eden couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

He believed Althea's words not only because of Althea's confidence, but also because of the unlucky coin.

The bad luck brought by the unlucky coins seems to be disappearing in these two days, and what follows will be a succession of good luck.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Eden thanked him.

"You rarely thank me."

Althea paused and dodged:
"But I haven't done anything for you to thank."

................................................

The next morning came quickly, and the theft of the crown caused a storm in the city. There were many more guards patrolling the streets and alleys, and there were interrogations in the market from time to time. Many people who were involved in the manufacture, supervision, or contact with the crown were People are under house arrest or imprisoned.

The entire royal city seemed to be in an atmosphere of martial law. People had different opinions about the whereabouts of the crown. Some said that the dwarf craftsmen were stealing it, some said that a certain thief was haunted, some said that the king wanted to punish someone with this, and some said, In fact, it is not man-made, but a curse from the gods. People have different ideas, but the only thing they have in common is that they all know that this crown is priceless and of great significance to the royal family and even the entire kingdom.

However, the theft of the crown did not affect Althea and her party.

In the case of the theft of the crown, the people who are least worthy of suspicion and the first to be eliminated are the Deschaners. They are from other places and are not familiar with the royal city. Moreover, they came to complete the wedding, so how could they do anything to hinder the wedding? thing, so almost no one would suspect Deschanel, especially the noble princess.

Although there were many guards patrolling and interrogating along the way, after Althea showed her identity, the journey was smooth.

"If it's in Deschanel, when nobles visit each other, they have to send someone to hand over the invitation. Even if it doesn't work, they have to send someone to say it first. But it's different here. You can go if you want to. This is really barbaric. convenient."

On the carriage, Althea talked with relish.

"You seem to be... much more energetic after coming here."

Eden nodded casually and said casually.

"Oh, really? Maybe it's because this place looks more like Deschanel!
It may also be that I have more freedom here. God, you don't know. I have to stay in the carriage or in the tent along the way. It is so idle. "

Althea complained about the boredom of the journey.

Soon the carriage arrived in front of Mrs. Shaddock's mansion. After informing the lady, a young and strong gatekeeper opened the door for the princess and her entourage. Althea and Eden stepped out of the carriage and entered, I saw all kinds of beautiful flowers. In this flower garden, there were several cages hanging on the trees. What were inside were not birds, but strangely colored lizards.

"Is this the custom of barbarians?"

Althea muttered.

"Maybe... it's one of the gifts from the wizard."

Eden said speculatively.

At this time, a steward walked out of the mansion. He introduced Eden and Althea into the living room and prepared chairs and step stools for them. Soon after, Mrs. Shadock came out.

"Greetings to you, noble man of Deschanel, may you be blessed."

Mrs. Shaddock saluted and said hello, her tone sounding very happy and respectful.

Althea also greeted the lady politely, and after that, the host and the guest began to communicate enthusiastically.

Eden observed that most of the time, Mrs. Shadock was speaking and Althea was listening. Often Mrs. Shadock would say ten sentences before Althea would respond with three or four sentences. She seemed to be She is an excellent listener, and with the blessing of her noble status, anyone will be enthusiastic about her and put down their guard.

Mrs. Shadock was no exception. She was extremely excited. Who would have thought that a princess from the empire would come to visit her? What an honor it was for a widow who lost her husband.

However, until now, Mrs. Shadock, who was enjoying the conversation, still didn't know why Althea came to visit her.

Soon, Althea took the initiative to mention the purpose of her trip.

The princess used what she said to the queen yesterday as an excuse to beg Mrs. Shadock to show her the treasure that the shark wizard gave to her. After hesitation, the latter agreed.

So Mrs. Shadock led Althea to the storage room upstairs, while Eden was asked to wait downstairs.

The priest had no objection to this. After all, in the eyes of others, he was Althea's follower.

After waiting patiently for a while, Althea's figure appeared beside the stairs. Eden looked over and found that the latter frowned slightly.

"what happened?"

When Althea walked up to her and Mrs. Shadock had not yet come down, Eden asked.

"Not smooth."

Althea whispered:
"She said everything about the narwhal was lost."

"what?"

Eden's eyes widened.

Coincidence?

It shouldn't be, why are you so unlucky...

Are bad luck coins still bringing bad luck?
Althea glanced at the stairs and continued:

"I guess she didn't really disappear. She just guessed what I was thinking and found an excuse to reject me. I can hear that tone."

After hearing this, Eden sighed,
"Then...it seems there is nothing we can do."

Althea was a little unwilling, but after a moment, she still shook her head,

"In this case, it seems that we can only go back first."

Soon after, Mrs. Shaddock came downstairs with a feigned apology on her face.

While Althea said it's okay, it's okay, she was rude, she cursed Mrs. Shaddock secretly in her heart. Since she didn't want to give it, she just said it.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Althea said goodbye to Mrs. Shaddock with a smile. As soon as she returned to the carriage, the tall princess revealed her true face.

"Hypocrisy... It's really hypocritical. Why are people here wearing masks?
Isn't it a good trait of these barbarians to speak directly?Why did he forget all of them? Not only did Deschanel fail to learn his good things, but his hypocritical mask slipped away first. "

After complaining to herself, Althea turned around and apologized:
"Sorry, I couldn't help you, Eden." "Nothing."

As he spoke, Eden looked in the direction of Mrs. Shaddock's mansion.

"Then... let's set off."

"No, wait a minute."

Eden stopped.

Althea looked at him confused.

"I feel like... I just need to wait."

Eden whispered.

...................................................

After seeing Althea off, Mrs. Shadock breathed a sigh of relief.

She lifted her feet, slowly climbed up the stairs, and walked back to the door of the storage room.

"Well...fortunately, I was quick to act quickly, otherwise, the princess would have taken my baby away."

Mrs. Shaddock said to herself:
"Even though she doesn't look like that, but then again, God, I've never seen such a decent and polite woman."

Mrs. Shadock sighed while rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the storage room, and finally dug out a wooden gift box.When she was turning over the wooden gift box, something seemed to fall out of the gap in the gift box.

"Bro, little Bro, now I can only see things and miss people."

The widow was obviously lost in nostalgia, and there was a little nostalgia in her eyes.

It is not difficult to guess that the Bro in her mouth is the mermaid wizard, and even more...her lover.

The gift box contains a series of precious things about narwhals, including a narwhal horn, some narwhal bones and fragments.

After staring intently for a moment, Mrs. Shaddock put the gift box back and was about to turn around and leave when her foot suddenly slipped.

boom.

Mrs. Shaddock stepped on something and fell hard.

"What is this? Bad luck!"

The lady picked up a small gray object from the ground, and it was this object that caused her to fall.

The angry lady cursed several times, and then angrily threw the small gray thing out of the window.

In mid-air, a subtle arc slid across.

Eden said "huh?" and saw a small gray object falling right in front of him.

The priest scratched his head, picked up the thing, and looked at it carefully, with a surprised look on his face.

Althea, who was beside her, leaned over in confusion and said in astonishment:

"Is this a... tooth?"

With its sharp edges, cylindrical shape, and gray-white texture, this is obviously a tooth, and it looks like the tooth of some large marine creature.

Eden looked at the teeth in his hand in surprise, and his intuition told him that these were the teeth of a narwhal.

Moreover, it was thrown out of Mrs. Shaddock's mansion.

"Is this okay?!"

Eden said with some disbelief.

Originally, Mrs. Shadock didn't even want to show the narwhal's things to Althea, but now, by chance, the narwhal's teeth actually came into her hands.

"This is...an unbelievable amount of luck."

......................................................

......................................................

After accidentally obtaining the narwhal's tooth, Eden gained a new understanding of the efficacy of the unlucky coin.

After experiencing a series of bad luck, a sudden burst of good luck brought Eden a great surprise.

"We must take advantage of the good luck in these two days to do something quickly."

Eden thought in his mind.

"We'll go to church immediately."

Eden turned to Althea.

"Ah good!"

After a brief moment of surprise, Althea immediately asked the coachman to change his route to the church.

When the time came to noon, the church door was crowded with Osenko True believers who came to pray noon. After learning that the princess had arrived, people involuntarily made way for Althea and Eden to arrive at the church. Inside, I saw the parish priest.

The priest was a little flattered by the princess's sudden visit. He didn't know how to receive such a distinguished person. After hesitating for a moment, he took the initiative:
"Your Highness, would you like to enjoy the mead here?"

Eden was stunned.

Mead, you mean?

Althea took the lead and said:
"Why not? God bless you."

After hearing what the princess said, the priest hurriedly ordered the monk to take out the best mead from the cellar.

"The best mead, but that's...hermit bee..."

"No need to butt, this is Deschanel's His Highness."

the priest demanded forcefully.

After a while, the monk took out a whole bottle of mead from the wine cellar and handed it to Althea, who tasted a small glass in front of her.

“Even at Deschanel, I never got a taste of that.”

Saying that, Althea stuffed the mead into Eden's arms,
"Let my followers take it back, I have to keep it to taste."

Seeing that the princess was full of praise, the priest who received the praise also laughed, while the monk next to him had a face full of pain.

Eden walked out of the Fahora sect's church, holding mead in his arms. He touched the narwhal tooth in his pocket and felt that something was not real.

“Whatever you want, come to you…

Even dreams that seem hopeless can come true in unexpected ways.

This is really...

Incredible luck. "

On the carriage, Eden was still mumbling to himself.

"Where are you going next?"

Althea turned her head, unable to hide the surprise in her eyes.

She seemed to realize that Eden's luck was extraordinary today.

"Since you are so lucky, why not check out the shaman that the druid said?"

　I might have to take a day off tomorrow to have some rest.
