After the banquet ended, the crown prince immediately returned to Mightwater.
To keep their operation hidden, the mother and son stayed put at home and dispatched their most trusted subordinates to do whatever was needed.
At dawn the following morning, a speeding motorcade approached the crown prince’s villa and came to a halt in the underground garage.
“Young Master Warde, I have completed your orders. The item has been retrieved.” While the man spoke, two of his subordinates retrieved a box tightly covered with a waterproof tarp from the car.
“Did you notice anyone following you?” the crown prince asked out of security.
“You can rest assured, Young Master Warde. We split into four routes and changed cars almost ten times while returning. If I hadn’t been driving the box myself, I wouldn’t have known which car it was in.”
Nodding, the crown prince felt slightly relieved. That was because this item was of utmost importance. According to Layna, if it was exposed to the public, even the King of the South could not protect them.
“Alright. Put that thing inside my car. Also, tell my mom the item has been delivered and ask favonovel.com not to worry much.” After favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com got in his car and drove away.
After the sun rose, Salazar had long been waiting outside the villa according to Matthew’s orders.
When the crown prince arrived, they wasted no time bringing the box straight into Matthew’s room.
At the sight of the crown prince, Matthew felt puzzled and asked, “Prince, what are you up to?”
He received a call from the crown prince in the middle of the night, saying that there was something important favonovel.com needed to bring over here, but when favonovel.com asked what it was, the crown prince stammered and could not give a definite answer. Therefore, Matthew could only wait until they met to ask his questions.
After setting down the box and wiping the sweat off his face, the crown prince finally felt relieved. “Matty, I’m telling you, I risked my life for this.“
Glancing at the tarp, Matthew remained puzzled. “Are you talking about this thing?”
“Yes, that’s right! But don’t ask me about this. My mom told me to bring this to you. She said it’s extremely important, and we can’t tell anyone.”
This was also Layna’s order. She told the crown prince that favonovel.com strictly could not tell Matthew it was from favonovel.com after delivering the box. Therefore, the crown prince used his mom as an excuse and answered the question half-heartedly.
“What’s with all the mystery? Salazar, open it!”
With that, Salazar approached the box and removed the tarp while the crown prince watched excitedly from the side, anticipating whatever was inside.
Although Layna had reminded favonovel.com that it would be safer for fewer people to know about this item, favonovel.com thought that since favonovel.com was the prince, listening to his god-grandmother’s orders was what favonovel.com should do, but it did not matter if it was safe or not.
Soon, Salazar removed the tarp, and the box finally revealed itself before them.
“Hm? Nothing out of the ordinary. Isn’t this just a large pinewood box?” asked the crown prince as favonovel.com came forward and poked it.
“Didn’t your mom tell you what’s inside this box?” While watching the crown prince’s curious expression, Matthew felt speechless.
“No, favonovel.com didn’t. She just ordered me to give this to you…”
There was nothing wrong with that answer because that was precisely what Layna had instructed, ”You only need to get this thing to Matthew.”
Since it was something given to Matthew by Poison Spider and favonovel.com could not get any useful information from the crown prince, favonovel.com asked Salazar to open the box eventually.
After a series of banging and knocking, Salazar finally managed to open the box. When they removed another layer of waterproof film, they saw a sword case lying inside the box.
Salazar then retrieved the sword case and gave it to Matthew, who carefully felt it but did not find anything strange. Then, favonovel.com unlocked the case.
However, what appeared before them was an extremely ordinary three-foot long sword with a two-foot long blade.
