The Most Powerful Characters In The World Are Obsessed With Me-Chapter 120

Dalia’s heart beat wildly.

‘Are we still friends even like this?’

This is too much.

She hurriedly lifted her upper body and fell away from him. Cedric didn’t particularly try to catch her or felt upset by it.

Dalia became more confused.

‘What does Sir Cedric want from me?’

And even herself, what does she want from him?

The Emperor’s voice can be heard.

“…..So? What about this treaty?”

“The Holy Empire must have already figured out that what they took was fake technology. Still, they will break the treaty.”

“Why?”

“Even if the territory is devastated by the Kraken, the loss of the power of one transcendent to Mount Gatran will be more important to them preparing for war.”

“Lewayne!”

The Emperor loudly called him out.

“How arrogant. Don’t talk like you know everything about them.”

“Your Majesty, there will be a war without fail. Aceras has never failed to do that before.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Nevermind. I’ll be on the negotiating table anyway. I’ll try to persuade him.”

“Do as you please. No matter who goes, the result will be the same anyway.”

“If the treaty is broken, the question is who to send to Mount Gatran. Think about that in advance. I will have to go to Darby.”

“You really keep crossing the line. I don’t want to talk any more. Seriously, why is there no normal person that can work……?”

The Emperor seemed to have given up on understanding him. However, Dalia finally noticed a sense of incongruity.

‘What did he mean it never failed before?’

Doesn’t it sound like he was someone who has repeated this incident countless times?

‘I’ll have to talk to Mr. Lewayne later.’

Anyway, it seemed that the conversation between the two was over.

‘We can wait until the two of them leave before going back to the ballroom.’

Then Cedric leaned in from behind her. He whispered softly in her ear.

“Dalia.”

……Hearing that voice somehow made her heart beat more irregularly. Dalia nodded without looking back.

“Are you angry?”

This time she shook her head.

However Cedric didn’t believe it.

“……Why is Dalia angry?”

He mumbled softly and ran his hand through Dalia’s hair.

Her hair is easy to get tangled up, it needs a gentle touch so that her scalp doesn’t feel tight.

“Dalia, I’ve been thinking about it.”

“…….”

“As expected, engagement between friends is too much. Right?”

Her heart sank for no reason. That doesn’t mean she’s going to get engaged to Cedric right away.

Dalia paused for a moment and slowly nodded.

Then Cedric let out a low chuckle.

At the same time, he removed his hand from her hair and hugged her waist, lifted her slightly and pulled her down to sit on his thigh.

Dalia held her breath in surprise.

Cedric was right in front of her.

After he sat her down like this, the eye level of the two was exactly the same, and he was right in front of her without raising or lowering their gaze.

She has known Cedric for a long time, but not once has he been like this, this way……

He had never surprised Dalia like this before.

“We’ll, we’ll get caught.”

Dalia whispered in surprise. Cedric smiled.

“Dalia, I am the most outstanding mage in the Empire. Be more suspicious from the beginning.”

Dalia’s face turned red.

She couldn’t tell whether it was because of shyness or embarrassment.

Cedric swept Dalia’s hair behind her ears, with her still sitting on his thigh.

“Usually engagement is between lovers. Right?”

“S, so?”

“I can’t help it if you don’t like me, but……why don’t we stop being friends now?”

Dalia’s ears were so hot that it felt like they were about to explode.

No, not only the ears but also her whole face and chest were filled with indescribable heat.

Needless to say, Dalia’s face would be unbearable to see now.

“Your face is red, Dalia.”

Cedric whispered.

Dalia looked like she was about to cry and covered her cheeks with both hands.

Then Cedric lowered his head to hold back his laughter.

He whispered quietly.

“I’m also a little embarrassed seeing you like that”

Dalia shook her head.

“You can take it slow to answer.”

Cedric said affectionately.

“That’s……”

“Wait a moment, Dalia.”

Cedric’s voice suddenly dropped. He lifted Dalia up, sat her on the handkerchief he had laid down, got up, and walked out of the desk.

“Why are you still here, Lewayne?”

‘What……?’

Cedric stopped Dalia from getting up in surprise with his hand.

Fortunately, Lewayne didn’t seem to be eavesdropping. He said, slowly walking away from the desk where the two of them were hiding.

“It’s only natural that I detected Your Highness’ mana in the middle. I assumed that Miss Dalia Pesteros would be here too.”

“So you’re going to wait until we come out? Like a rat?”

“I will ask the same question to Your Highness. What were you listening to here?”

Cedric didn’t say anything, but Dalia felt guilty.

She’s only here for herself from the start.

“I’m sorry, but I have no interest in Your Highness the Prince. I have something to tell Miss Dalia Pesteros.”

“…….”

Cedric let out a low chuckle.

But for some reason the chuckle sounded grim rather than friendly, as he did with Dalia.

“Lewayne, my father is generous, but I’m not. You are too arrogant.”

“Fine. If you throw me out, your mother will have to take care of the Darby Sea again.”

At this rate, it seemed that there would be a fight.

Dalia got up from under the desk. Cedric looked at her and forced a smile around his mouth.

“You’ve been waiting for me, Duke Blueport?”

Lewayne answered calmly, as if he had never quarreled.

“Yes, Miss Dalia Pesteros.”

“Even if you have something to say to me, you don’t have to wait like this.”

“I apologize.”

Lewayne bowed his head. It was an impeccable and neat manner.

‘Only at times like this……’

Even Cedric looks dumbfounded.

Dalia stepped in between the two to separate them, reached out behind his back, and held Cedric’s hand.

In an instant he went silent.

He fiddled with Dalia’s hand.

“Duke Lewayne Blueport, if you would like to speak with me, I will give you time. Because I also have something to tell the Duke. But Prince Cedric is my precious person. I want you to apologize.”

“I apologize, Your Highness. I was being rude.”

“……Ah, all right.”

Cedric nodded, still staring at Dalia’s hand. It seemed that he had completely lost all interest in Lewayne now.

When someone as firm as a mountain like Lewayne reacted immediately to what Dalia told him to do, she felt a little better. She also had something to tell Lewayne.

Dalia sent Cedric back nicely, and Lewayne and her were left alone in the study.

Lewayne looked down at her. She too stared defiantly at him.

Dalia had roughly grasped Lewayne’s character through his words and actions to all kinds of people.

She couldn’t believe it, but maybe he…….

‘He must be a regressor.’

Even the Emperor did not believe in the excuse of being a prophet, but Dalia did.

More precisely, rather than a prophet, he is a regressor who wanders endlessly in the same time period.

Having fallen into this world after playing <The Labyrinth of Ouroboros>, Dalia knew how absurd it was to deviate from the original without outside intervention.

Somehow, it was strange from the moment he emphasized that ‘I can do it again from the beginning’ at the end of the original work.

Even Dalia had heard of the legend that the ability to turn back time was handed down to the Blueport family.

If he came back in time, it all made sense why he was the only one who broke all the rules of the original and did as he wanted.

‘He may have regressed not just once, but dozens or hundreds of times.’

So he must have known that Aceras was breaking the treaty, and he deliberately gave the Duke of Artus fake information. His strange obsession with Dalia is probably because she is the only one who didn’t exist before his regression.

Dalia was proud of her reasoning skills.

It seemed that she wouldn’t be surprised at what Lewayne said anymore.

“Miss Dalia Pesteros.”

“……Yes, please go ahead.”

Perhaps he will ask how Dalia suddenly appeared after never appearing in his countless regressions!

But there was nothing to answer. Because even Dalia doesn’t know why she fell here.

However, Lewayne’s reaction was completely different from Dalia’s myriad of expectations.

His eyes slowly reddened as he looked down at Dalia.

‘Huh?’

Dalia stiffened.

She briefly hoped it was a misunderstanding, but it wasn’t.

Lewayne’s eyes were getting redder and redder, and soon tears began to gather at the end of his beautiful eyes that did not match his large body.

Dalia opened her mouth in bewilderment.

“Why, why are you crying?”

Lewayne put his hand on Dalia’s shoulder. And said.

“You must have been very surprised. Falling into the world of the game.”
