Chapter 45: CH 23.2

Teleport could only be used if we had a legal identity; therefore, my idea made sense.

“Will you be okay?”

Zoe looked hesitant, but we had no better option.

“Yes, my body is a little stiff, so I’ll treat myself for a while. There is a good hot spring in the city near the Fire Prison. If we use teleport, you can get to the Fire Prison in two days. And then, what’s next?”

I didn’t have to ask if Zoe believed in me as much as I believed in her.

“Three days. I’ll contact you in three days. After that, if I am about to leave the prison, I will get in touch with you.”

We put our heads together to minimize the risk.

“But Diana.”

“Yes, go ahead.”

“Do you really have to do it even though it’s dangerous, huh?”

She was the head of Journee until just now, but Zoe turned into my aunt again.

“Yes. I will do it even if it’s dangerous, but it will be less dangerous because my aunt is with me.”

Zoe made an ambiguous expression. Looking at her face, which was happy and sad at the same time, my heart fluttered, and I turned my gaze away.

“Please listen to my plan if Rumdrax comes out of prison.”

I would send a lot of food and alcohol to the Fire Prison guards in the name of the Irenberg family.

It was nothing new because he often sent encouraging support to the people who worked for state institutions when Father was still alive.

‘Let’s say I sent it for them because I was visiting a nearby place.’

The Fire Prison guards were suffering from a heavy workload, and they were always on edge as they were guarding high-level offenders. Perhaps that was why they often made mistakes at work; because they were heavy drinkers.

I remembered Dyson complaining about it during an internal inspection.

“I’m going to send them a drink. I’m sure they will drink it.”

“I can move after the guards are drunk.”

“Are you confident you won’t get caught during that three days?”

“You should just get ready to send them something to drink.”

She was back with her full of confidence. I took out the money bag from my drawer.

“What if he runs away after he gets out?”

Zoe asked as she put the money inside her pocket. She kept asking me many questions, probably because it was related to me.

‘I guess this is what happened if you keep tapping a stone.’

Still, it was important to prepare for the worse.

I calmly told Zoe what I thought.

“If he reads my letter, he will want to meet me.”

I wrote down many things he might be tempted by in a letter I sent to Rumdrax.

‘I said I would show him the kingdom’s holy relic.’

The kingdom’s relics, which existed only in legends, were kept in the deepest part of the royal palace.

Only the King and Queen could see it, and that was only during a royal wedding. This fact was top secret. All the royal courts knew about the existence of the holy relic, but only the royal family granted when and who could see it.

‘Is there even a great power hidden in that relic?’

I soon smirked.

I don’t know what it was like in the fairy’s era, but the sacred relic that passed down from generation to generation and was worshiped was no more than a symbol.

‘It’s just a lump of stone. A scrap metal.’

However, for some reason, Rumdrax showed excessive interest in it.

Therefore I visited the kingdom several times.

In the past, whenever he came to the palace, he dressed up as a different person.

When I belatedly found out that Rumdrax had been there, I looked into it, but there were no royal treasures that disappeared from the royal palace.

He took risks by coming in and out of the palace, but he didn’t steal anything.

‘He didn’t steal it.’

I concluded that the object that Rumdrax wanted was a sacred relic located in a place where he could never sneak in.

To the royal family, the basis for the inference was that his actions gradually approached the place where the holy relic was located.

‘He will get killed for that.’

So if he read my letter, Rumdrax would come to see me at least once.

‘Because he really wants to see the Kingdom’s holy relics.’

I opened the inside of my drawer, looking forward to meeting Roomdrax.

When I put my hand into the drawer, I felt the tip of the contract I would deal with Rumdrax.

‘Please wait for me, Your Highness Cassion. If Rumdrax came to me, I would give you the twilight mansion right away.’

* * * *

Rumdrax Valcino was lying on a hard bed. He was killing his time by bopping his feet that he crossed across his knee.

It had been a year since he was put in Fire Prison.

‘Should I go out? I’m tired of this place.’

He endured a lot for a year.

And public rage must have calmed down by now.

Rumdrax was making a plan in his head and was drawing a map of the prison. He had been locked up for a year, but he still hadn’t completed the map.

There were many empty parts on the map in his head.

‘I need help. Who could help me with that?’

He was trying to think hard, but no one came to his mind. He felt like his life was in vain every time he thought about that.

Tuck.

Slide.

Roomdrax flinched as he heard the footstep stop. The owner of the footsteps was clearly pacing around on purpose.

Rumdrax only moved his eyes to check where the sound came from. There was a pebble on the floor.

Roomdrax stood up, pretending to stretch his muscle, and approached the window on the floor, where the food came in and out, which was slightly open.

There was a pebble in front of it; Rumdrax approached the door and grabbed the pebble. Rumdrax observed it.

‘Did someone drop it?’

He didn’t think a pebble could roll in accidentally in the first place.

There was no way a pebble would randomly roll in Fire Prison.

And except when food was given, there was no way for the window to open by itself.

‘More than anything, this pebble doesn’t come from this area.’

Someone came to roll it in on purpose.

Rumdrax was sure.
