The Most Powerful Characters In The World Are Obsessed With Me-Chapter 121
For a moment, Dalia almost fainted from surprise.
‘N, no. D, don’t panic here..….’
Dalia regained her senses as much as she could, and spoke with care so that her voice did not tremble as much as possible.
“W, w, what are you talking about? Ga……me?”
“…….”
“Ha, haha. You must be talking about chess or something.”
Dalia hurriedly tried to make an excuse to cover up the situation somehow.
But Lewayne didn’t give her a chance. He said, wiping away tears with his fists like a grown adult child.
“<The Labyrinth of Ouroboros>.”
In this world, she didn’t expect to hear that name, especially from the original male protagonist.
Dalia blankly stared at him in disbelief.
Lewayne was still looking at Dalia with tears in his eyes.
“Have you ever thought about why you fell into this world?”
“……How do you know that?”
Dalia looked at him blankly and asked. At this point, there was nothing she could do but admit it.
Lewayne knows the secrets of this world.
“Because I called Miss Dalia here.”
“……Why?”
“Because I think you can save this world.”
“…….”
“I apologize. But I don’t think you had a bad second life either.”
Lewayne said in a trembling voice.
Even in the midst of this, Dalia looked into Lewayne’s blue eyes, which were as calm as a lake. It was amazing that she thought it was beautiful even in this situation.
“The words in the diary…… Do you remember? I wrote it.”
It was as if the words that Dalia had seen from long ago were playing before her eyes again.
[There will be salvation wherever you reach. I hope you can save many people with that power.]
She felt dizzy.
Lewayne grabbed Dalia by the shoulders as she staggered.
His eyes were still red, but his tears had subsided a little.
“I really needed you. And now that I think about it again. It was a good thing I called you.”
“…….”
“If you want to hear more details, please visit me separately at the Blueport Ducal’s Mansion. If I stay any longer, His Highness the Prince will suspect me.”
Dalia bit her lips. She was confused, but she had to ask this one thing.
“That…….let me ask you one question.”
“Yes, please.”
“Sir Cedric……do you know why he keeps getting the same fate?”
Lewayne looked down at Dalia for a moment. And shook his head.
“I don’t know, but this time it will be different. Everything.”
“…….”
“Because Miss Dalia is here.”

Cedric was waiting for Dalia to come out of the study. He frowned at the sight of Lewayne leaving.
“……Did that guy cry?”
“Yes……”
“Why?”
“I don’t know……”
Dalia answered blankly.
Cedric quickly noticed that she was being strange. He put the back of his hand on Dalia’s cheek.
“Your cheeks are hot. Did something happen?”
Cedric looked at Dalia with a worried expression.
Dalia’s eyes quickly heated up when she saw his same appearance as usual.
“……Heuk.”
Lewayne did not deny Dalia’s words.
That means Cedric really dies at the end of every route.
She knew it but kept on trying to ignore it, but it felt like she was shot dead by his reaction just now.
Cedric bent his knees in surprise as Dalia’s chest began to heave up and down.
He held her head in his hands and looked at her.
And he looked absolutely flustered when he saw tears forming around Dalia’s eyes.
Dalia covered her face and leaned against Cedric’s chest.
“What do I do……”
Cedric hugged her in surprise and patted her on the back. This was the first time she had cried in front of him. But she couldn’t stand it.
There’s only one route left.
Dalia could not solve the Aceras route until the end.
If she can’t figure out the reason behind Cedric’s death, this time again he…….
She doesn’t want Cedric to die. Because he’s already too important to Dalia.
Someone who is important, so important, so precious that she doesn’t even know how to express this feeling.
“It’s all right, Dalia. It’s all right.”
While Cedric was comforting Dalia, Hikan and Adrisha appear to find the two who had disappeared from the ballroom for too long.
Everyone didn’t know what to do when they saw Dalia who didn’t stop crying.
The two, who initially criticized Cedric, immediately changed the direction of their arrows as soon as they heard the explanation of the situation.
“What has Lewayne Blueport done to you?”
“What did he say to make Dalia like this?”
Dalia shook her head in denial as she continued to cry in Cedric’s arms.
Yeah, it’s not Lewayne’s fault.
From the time Dalia suddenly fell into this world, it was a fate she had to face at least once.
Dalia continued to cry when Cedric lifted her up and carried her to the sofa, continued to wipe her face with a handkerchief, and after she cried so much that he healed her aching head with magic that she finally fell asleep in Cedric’s arms.

The next morning, Dalia went out for breakfast with a swollen face.
Hikan looked at Dalia’s face and touched his forehead. He was really lost for words.
Dalia was afraid to look in the mirror.
“……So, how should I deal with Lewayne Blueport?”
“You don’t have to do anything.”
Dalia spoke clearly with a hoarse voice.
“I’ll take care of everything.”
“…….”
“Really.”
“Dalia.”
Hikan called her in a stern voice.
Dalia hesitated before answering.
“Yes.”
“You’ve always been strong. But……you’ve always kept things from me. What is worrying you so much, and why are you trying to deal with it alone.”
Dalia felt that her eyes would turn red again, so she forcibly clenched her fists and endured it.
Hikan continued.
“It’s your choice, so I won’t stop you. But you know, I’m always on your side. If there’s someone who’s giving you a hard time, I’ll solve it no matter what.”
“…….”
“Okay?”
Dalia nodded. Only then did Hikan seem satisfied.
“His Highness is outside. If you two have something to talk about, go ahead.”
Yes, even Cedric is still here in this mansion.
He eventually gave up on going back to the Imperial Palace yesterday and stayed in a guest room.
Cedric was getting ready to return to the Imperial Palace when she went out of the front door.
It is said that the Emperor was urgently looking for him yesterday. He smiled at Dalia.
“Our pretty Dalia.”
Even as a joke, her face was not in a state that could be called pretty right now.
However, Cedric smiled and came closer to Dalia.
“Are all the sad things over?”
“…….”
“I’ve never seen you cry like that before.”
Dalia had nothing to say, so she just smiled awkwardly.
Cedric caressed her cheek a few times. And spoke in a friendly tone as usual.
“If you want to, I could kill him. Shall we do that?”
Dalia looked up in surprise. And she could see the blue chill in Cedric’s peaceful-looking smile.
She shook her head.
Cedric’s gaze changed mysteriously. But when he closed his eyes once and opened them, only affection remained.
He looked at Dalia tenderly.
“Okay, then let me know when you feel like talking next time.”
He kissed the back of Dalia’s hand and left in a carriage.
After seeing off his carriage, Dalia made up her mind.
‘I need to see Mr. Lewayne.’
She had to get a proper explanation.
How this world came to be, what it meant to call Dalia here, and how Lewayne knew everything.
Dalia called a carriage. The next destination has been decided.
