Chapter 34: Dwarf King’s Crown
“Teacher, if you follow us here, are you really alright?”
“I can handle such a small matter alone. I’m mainly worried about your safety.”
Fang Ping leaned against the side of the carriage and looked at the three balls of light in front of him. His consciousness gradually faded.
“...I’m a little sleepy. I’ll sleep for a while.”
“Yeah, sure.”
Moon Bell looked worriedly at Fang Ping, who was gradually falling asleep.
Originally, according to her plan, Teacher should have stayed in the Dark Elven Kingdom.
However, when the teacher heard that she was leaving for another place, she volunteered to go with her to ensure her safety.
“Teacher.”
Moon Bell sighed silently.
Although she understood how Teacher was worried about his students, the Kingdom of Dwarfs was very busy, and she did not have that much time to take care of Teacher’s daily life.
For the past few days, Teacher had been taking care of himself.
Every time she thought of this, Moon Bell felt a little guilty.
However, Teacher always told her to focus on her work and not to care about him.
If she had known that Teacher would work so hard, he would have left quietly.
Anyway, her sister had a crystal ball in her hand, and her voice could be heard in front of Teacher.
She could also hide it.
However, they would soon reach the capital of the Kingdom of Dwarfs.
Moon Bell frowned. When the time came, she would find a place to stay and let him rest well.
Moon Bell lifted the curtain and looked outside.
At this moment, it was not an exaggeration to call the Kingdom of Dwarfs hell on earth.
An unbearable rancid smell filled the surroundings.
Both the ground and the walls were covered in dried blood and chopped up Dwarf corpses.
Large thumb-sized flies were recklessly partying in the city.
How terrible.
Moon Bell put down the curtain of the carriage. She could not help but feel sad.
“They’ve gone too far!”
Lillian and Lina, who were in charge of controlling the carriage, looked at the scene outside the window. Their expressions changed.
“I thought that the things described in the book were already the limit...”
Moon Bell looked outside silently. They were now in Grape Town, the most prosperous capital of the Dwarfs.
Moon Bell’s target this time was the grape-scented Dwarf Palace.
The carriage creaked to a halt.
Lilian and Lina lifted the curtain and said respectfully to Moon Bell.
“Moon Bell, we’re here.”
“Take good care of Teacher. I’ll be back soon.”
Moon Bell stood up and jumped off the carriage.
Just as she was about to land on the ground, her clothes gradually turned into dark blue feathers under the catalysis of magic power.
Moon Bell, who had transformed into a crow, flapped her wings and flew quickly towards the palace.
The last time she turned into a crow to scout, this was still a paradise for the Dwarfs.
Now, this place has become a hell for the Dwarfs.
The city was filled with brutal soldiers and broken limbs of Dwarfs.
Moon Bell could not bear to watch any longer. She flapped her wings and flew towards the top floor of the palace.
If he wanted to obtain the command of the Dwarfs,she had to obtain the Dwarf King’s golden crown!
It was said that when the crown was made, a Forbidden Spellcaster was hired to inject a special incantation into the crown.
The person with this crown could command most Dwarfs!
The crown was still in the Dwarf King’s palace.
Moon Bell flapped her wings and accelerated toward the palace.
A few slender figures flashed through the palace windows.
Their target was also between the thrones on the highest level of the palace!
That was where the crown was.
Moon Bell narrowed her eyes and sped up.
She had to take down that special crown before those Humans!
...
Between the thrones.
“These Dwarfs look poor on the surface, but they’re actually extremely rich.”
Shura looked around. Almost every part of the ceiling was embedded with diamonds.
Many of the items were made of pure gold. There were cabinets, candlesticks, chairs, and even the huge throne behind the Dwarf King’s corpse.
“Tsk tsk, these are all pure gold...”
Shura’s attendants curiously touched here and there.
These attendants had never seen so much gold in their lives.
They had never seen anyone use gold so extravagantly.
“Alright, stop dawdling.”
Shura coldly glanced at his subordinates.
“Hurry up and get the things. Pack up all the things made of gold.”
“Yes Sir!”
Damn it, they were one step ahead.
Moon Bell flew to the windowsill and looked down at everyone.
The Human soldiers were holding sacks and stuffing everything made of gold into them.
Fortunately, the Dwarf Crown she needed was still firmly on the Dwarf King’s head.
“Your Highness, should we take this too?”
The Human soldiers respectfully presented the crown of the Dwarf King to Shura.
“This is the Dwarf King’s crown.”
Shura carefully sized up the golden crown.
The entire crown looked extremely heavy. It would probably cost at least two catties of gold to forge this crown.
Unfortunately, many of the gems embedded in the crown had been taken away by someone.
Otherwise, this crown would definitely be even more valuable.
“I’ll take this crown.”
Shura reached out and easily held the crown in his hand.
The moment he touched the crown, his expression changed.
Something was wrong.
There was something wrong with this crown!
Everything made of gold was very heavy.
However, this crown was as light as paper in his hand.
Shura was curious and gently tossed the crown up.
The crown was thrown into the sky above the palace and slowly landed in Shura’s hand.
His face instantly darkened.
How could a crown made of real gold be so light?
Someone must have swapped the real crown!
“Everyone, come out immediately!”
Shura threw the crown in his hand to the ground with a dark expression.
The golden crown bounced twice on the ground and gently slid into the distance.
“How are you going to explain this? Huh?!”
This frightened the surrounding servants so much that they knelt on the ground.
“Your Highness Shura! Please calm down! Someone must have swapped this crown when we weren’t around!”
“Speak, who is it!”
The attendants broke out in cold sweat and lowered their heads even more.
“We, we don’t know!”
“You don’t?”
Shura snorted.
“When I first occupied this city, I had already sent people to seal this palace.”
“You’re the first batch of people to come in. How can you not know?”
Moon Bell stood on the windowsill and looked down at everything. She tried her best to hold back her laughter.
It seemed that there had been a small misunderstanding between them.
The Dwarf King’s crown was genuine.
Except items that had been cast with Forbidden Spells had such special characteristics.
It seemed that His Highness Shura didn’t know much about Forbidden Spells.
