The Most Powerful Characters In The World Are Obsessed With Me-Chapter 45
The Baron immediately left the room half an hour later without being asked.
At least it was the most meaningful thing he had ever done in his life.
Cedric left the room and extended the reservation time.
When he returned, Dalia was still sleeping with her eyes closed, supported by the cushion he had made.
Cedric sat next to her and slightly adjusted the cushion to fit her chin height.
A strange sense of satisfaction that even himself could not understand filled his heart. He smiled unconsciously.
“Sir Cedric hates every human being. But why do you like me?”
To say such a thing casually, she has no idea that he can’t help but like her.
Willing to sacrifice herself even though she didn’t understand.
And the fluttering gray hair and the little body.
The scene from that day is like a world that he’s never seen before, and he fell in love with it.
‘You don’t understand.’
Even now, he wanted to be alone with her, but she called someone else.
He quietly rested his chin on the desk, thinking mischievously.
The sun was setting. He decided to wait until Dalia woke up.
* * *
Dalia only opened her eyes when the sun was setting.
‘Gasp. How many hours did I sleep?’
She slept for at least two hours. How can she sleep this much while sitting down?
But strangely, she felt like she slept like a baby. For some reason, she still felt something soft supporting her chin.
Thinking that it was odd, Dalia lifted her head and pressed her hand against the spot where her head was.
There really was something in the air! Strangely soft like a bag of water…….
‘Ah.’
The pockets burst and disappeared in the air.
Dalia looked around in surprise.
Then she found Cedric reading a book next to her, where the sunlight came in.
Cedric’s hair was dyed red as the setting sunlight shone through the window, and his face was darkened by the shadows.
He said calmly as he turned the pages of the book.
“It will explode if you stimulate it too much.”
“Ah, ahh….”
Cedric made it.
Dalia somehow felt ashamed. She can’t believe that she was sleeping on a magic pillow made by someone else.
The class must have ended long ago, but he must have been unable to leave because of her.
“You were drooling in your sleep.”
“Oh.”
Dalia wiped her mouth in surprise. Cedric smiled as he closed the book.
“It was a lie.”
She was deceived.
She pouted her cheeks with her mouth covered. He smiled and arranged the book and stood up.
Dalia’s mind went wild when she thought of him who had been waiting for her until late.
“The Baron……?”
“Already left.”
“Ah……”
“Did you call him because you were uncomfortable with me?”
Cedric asked with a nonchalant face.
She didn’t expect him to ask this right away. Dalia looked at his face nervously, not knowing what to do.
“That’s……”
“It’s okay.”
It was such a soft voice, as if comforting Dalia.
Cedric briefly stopped in front of Dalia, holding the book in his hand, and looked at her.
Dalia thought again, that he was really, really handsome from this angle.
The red color from the sunset just now and his splendid face were in perfect harmony.
‘Don’t be fooled.’
Is it because of the atmosphere or because she was half awake? It really felt like she was going to cross the river of no return.
Cedric’s eyes gently closed as he smiled. (*t/n: damn that eye smile…i’m melting)
“Instead, teach me yourself next time.”
Dalia nodded unconsciously.
Cedric smiled and nodded together.
“Okay. See you next time, Dalia.”
Shut. After leaving only a brief greeting, the door closed.
Dalia sat absentmindedly for a long time in the place where he left.
Her head was bursting with heat because of all kinds of thoughts running through her mind.
Her soul that went out had no sign of returning.
When she came to her senses, she was leaving the library, and when she came to her senses again, she was in the carriage, and when she came to her senses again, she was at the door of the mansion.
Hikan was waiting for Dalia with a worried look.
Looking at his outfit, he must have just come back from the Knight Order. His uniform was clean, and there’s no signs of sweating, as if he just washed up.
Hikan grabbed her arm as soon as she got off the carriage.
“Did anything happen? I’m sorry. That’s the only way I can think of…….”
Dalia nodded blankly.
Hikan quickly noticed something strange about her.
“………Something did happen.”
Dalia awkwardly avoided his eyes.
“N, no. Nothing…….”
“That son of a b…….”
Harsh words are about to come out of Hikan’s mouth,
Dalia’s bewildered look made him stop his words.
“……sorry.”
Dalia shook her head to indicate that it was fine. Hikan hugged her shoulder and entered the mansion.
* * *
Hikan didn’t ask more about what had happened, but there still seemed to be an ominous feeling.
Even though he asked her to wash up, he didn’t know how to let Dalia go and kept hesitating as if he wanted to say something.
Dalia wanted to tell him what was going on, but somehow she was too ashamed to say anything.
‘No, what am I ashamed of? Nothing happened, right?’
She thought so in her head, but somehow her heart didn’t.
‘He tried to seduce me.’
And Dalia was halfway over there and then back again. Including her past life, there are a lot of Dalia! (*t/n: i don’t know this part huhu)
This is embarrassing.
He was so handsome and knew how to twist people around. Even though he is still that young, she cannot imagine what he would evolve into when he grew up a few years later.
At that time, even if they were together for five more minutes, she would be thinking, ‘Oh, maybe it’s okay to get engaged to someone like this?’
In particular, he was the number one person she needed to be cautious about.
‘Besides.’
Dalia had a gloomy thought and lowered her eyes.
There’s one more reason to watch out for him. The reason why she should never fall for him.
Cedric ends up dead in every route of the original.
As if the original author strongly insists that he will never be included in the male lead route.
Cedric’s ending is always the same in every route, no matter which male lead route she takes.
The reasons are different for each route, but there is something in common with every death.
Each time he dies alone quietly, without shedding any tears or begging for sympathy.
Neither despairing nor depressed about dying, just as usual.
Maybe even his own life, like everything else, meant nothing to him.
‘Of course, Sir Cedric is telling me that he loves me right now.’
Anyway, such a noble appearance played a part in increasing his fan base.
Because Dalia liked him too.
Many of the original stories have changed.
Maybe there will be no war and nobody will go crazy.
Cedric may also live in peace until the end.
But it was true that it was bothering her somehow.
‘Yes, not Sir Cedric.’
No matter how good he treats Dalia and tries to charm her with his handsome face!
She will surely meet her long-lived husband and live happily ever after.
She was determined. She didn’t even realise that Hikan was watching her from the side.
