The Revenge Kidnapping Drama's Transmigrated Female Lead - Chapter 65
“You’re spouting s**t with such dedication, you crazy bastard.”
Unlike Serdin who spat out curse words as soon as Zephyros finished speaking, Rezus maintained a leisurely smile.
“Oh really? Then tell me, how should I show this sincerity?”
“Psyche is my only remaining family. Similarly, Ruon must be such an existence to you. If you want to get back such a precious being first, you should present something of equal value. Wouldn’t that make the accounts balance?”
“Equal value.”
“I mean, give us something precious enough to you that would make us consider returning Ruon first. If you want to get your hostage back first, I’d like to see this much sincerity.”
Pfft, a deflating sound escaped between Rezus’s lips.
“Unlike you, we’re just vulgar beggars. We don’t have anything precious enough to satisfy noble bastards like you.”
“That can’t be true. Just off the top of my head, there’s the Blue Diamond mine.”
The Blue Diamond mine belonged to House Fontos. About 300 years ago, Odrnan III looked at House Fontos, who hereditably bore silver hair and blue eyes, and said, ‘The person who suits Blue Diamonds best in this world is Theo Fontos—the head of Fontos at the time—’ and bestowed the Blue Diamond mine to House Fontos.
If not for Fontos, that mine would have belonged to Rosebel, who was characterized by deep blue hair and blue-purple eyes. Zephyros was born with deep blue hair and eyes, and often wore Blue Diamonds, one of House Fontos’s symbols, as accessories. Especially his earrings, which he wore almost daily, making his love for Blue Diamonds well-known among the nobles.
In other words, he meant to hand over the Blue Diamond mine.
“Wow, he’s literally talking s**t. Rezus, you’re not actually thinking of accepting that, are you? F**k, if I see that happen, I think my blood pressure will kill me.”
Serdin looked like he was about to die trying to suppress the urge to attack right away. While pushing back Serdin, who was clenching his jaw and roughly brushing back his bangs, Rezus asked Zephyros with a calm face.
“Is the Blue Diamond mine what you want?”
“Among the things you have, that’s at least…”
Zephyros, who had been stroking his chin as if lost in thought, smiled lightly with a grin.
“That seems better.”
“Ah. If we hand over that mine, you’ll believe our word to release Psyche and return Ruon first?”
“Yes.”
“Now we’re finally speaking the same language. I was worried what we’d do if you were too ignorant to understand even this.”
As Aiden Marta, one of the heads of Mathes, spoke as if for everyone to hear, Zephyros smiled with creased eyes. This time, Serdin only twisted his lips askew without stepping forward, and Rezus gestured to Terche to come closer. Soon, a barrier formed around Rezus and Terche, blocking them from outside.
They turned around to talk, preventing others from reading their lips. After about 5 minutes, Rezus and Terche disappeared simultaneously. When they returned, Rezus held an envelope of documents. It contained contents about transferring ownership of the Blue Diamond mine from Terche Fontos to Zephyros Rosebel.
Rezus held the documents beside his face and shook them lightly a couple of times.
“Swear on Fredier’s name again. If I hand over these documents, you’ll release Ruon just like this.”
“I swear on Fredier’s name that I will return Ruon the moment you hand over the Blue Diamond mine.”
It was an answer without any hesitation. When Rezus nodded slightly, the envelope floated in the air and flew toward Zephyros Rosebel.
“Now, Ruon—”
“So impatient. Learn some patience. Shouldn’t I verify if these documents are original?”
Gently cutting off Serdin’s words, Zephyros carefully examined the documents he had snatched. The documents appeared original. Terche’s seal was already stamped everywhere, so Zephyros only needed to sign. He stamped his seal right there, transferring ownership of the Blue Diamond mine from Terche Fontos to Zephyros Rosebel.
“Would you hold onto this for me?”
Zephyros handed the documents to Tenon Riveus beside him, and raised the corners of his mouth as if satisfied.
“Thank you.”
“Look at that bastard’s smile, looks like a dog’s d**k.”
Serdin sneered mockingly. Though he must have heard the curse, Zephyros only smiled. Rezus stared expressionlessly at Zephyros before turning his gaze to look at Ruon. Finally freed from his gag, Ruon was catching his breath while panting.
“Ruon, come here.”
As someone witnessing the moment his hostage brother finally gained freedom, his expression was strangely calm, but his voice was quite affectionate. The heads of Mathes parted like the Red Sea. Standing in the middle, Ruon took slow steps after catching his breath. The distance between Rezus and Ruon gradually decreased. Ruon’s steps grew faster.
“Brother!!”
Rezus spread his arms. The moment Ruon tried to jump into his embrace. Snap! A crisp sound of snapping fingers rang out. And,
“……!”
Before their eyes, Ruon’s head and body separated cleanly. It was a sight unbelievable even seeing it, and one they didn’t want to believe. In this reality that hadn’t yet sunk in, Rezus embraced Ruon’s round head separated from his body.
“Haa… Ahhhhh!”
