The Most Powerful Characters In The World Are Obsessed With Me-Chapter 93
The method Dalia was trying to try was based on the original content.
Dalia remembered the ending of Empress Siord and Beolde at the end of the Aceras route.
In the end, Aceras works with the final villain, Hikan and destroys the Frederic Empire. Of course, he got rid of Hikan after that.
Siord, who thought that her country had been destroyed because of her sister’s betrayal, suffers from a mental shock and dies.
At that time, Beolde protected Siord until her last breath.
「……Sister, you hate me.」
「I never hated you.」
「Would you have been in our Empire if I had done better?」
「…….」
‘It’s not your fault’, Beolde would have wanted to say that then. But she had no right to say it.
So instead she says.
「Do you remember the time we used to write our exchange diaries when we were young?」
「Sister hides the diary in a weird place every day, so I went around looking for it. I finally gave up on that. What’s the point of searching for it a week before the wedding?」
The last one I wrote was actually hidden in the third annex of the Imperial Palace Library. In yo「ur favorite book.」
「It’s too bad I can’t find it now because it’s burnt out.」
And then Empress Siord closed her eyes.
It was a will.
Many people vented their anger thanks to the last conversation between the two sisters.
– So what the hell is there?
– You have to tell me what you wrote!
– I’m so frustrated. Just because they understand each other, then it’s all right? There is no consideration for players.
– What’s her favorite book?
As it was their last conversation, it couldn’t have been a really meaningless letter. Of course, it may be a letter without any content, given Beolde’s personality. But it was worth looking for.
‘Although Lady Beolde may have forgotten about the existence of that letter by now.’
……Wouldn’t it work better to find the letter and threaten to reveal her ‘dark history’ to Beolde?
It was an attractive idea, but Dalia decided to quit even if it was her loss.
When she deals with an enraged Beolde, it feels like her lifespan is cut by 10 years. So it was time for Dalia to reveal the secret that all the original gamers were curious about.
‘What is Her Majesty’s favorite book?’
She pondered over someone who might know. She thought about going to His Majesty the Emperor, but her mind was turned to one side for no reason.
‘Since Sir Cedric said he’d make it up to me.’
The day after the banquet, Dalia was contacted by Cedric.
He wants to apologize for what happened last time, so if she tells him a good time, he will come to her. He probably was sorry to send it only in a note.
In addition, she had received a lot of gifts. From magic beads to various useful magic tools…….
“……No matter how you look at it, it looks like something that the former Princess personally bestowed upon His Highness the Second prince.”
“Can I take this?”
“Well, you can give it to someone you like later on…….”
Even the set of accessories that had quite a suspicious identity had made Adrisha to become speechless.
‘I’ll have to go and ask him about it.’
Speaking of which, she thought that it was a good time. Dalia wrote a short reply to Cedric.
Soon after, Dalia met Cedric at the Imperial Palace. He tilted his head to an unexpected question.
“……What is my mother’s favorite book? Why is that?”
“What do you mean, that?”
Cedric’s reaction was natural.
The existence of the letter was a secret that only Beolde, Siord and Dalia, who played the original, knew.
Dalia explained with a moderate spin.
“I heard that Lady Beolde hid a letter she wrote to the Empress in the past in her favorite book. I’m going to start looking for it in case that might be a hint.”
Dalia took a deep breath.
She was grateful to Meldon, and besides, she was guaranteed the ‘Lady’s seat’ for the rest of her life!
Even after that day, she couldn’t erase the feeling that she’s in a great loss for some reason.
“Do you really want Meldon to be the Duke of Artus?”
He seems jealous, but Cedric, whom Dalia saw, looked genuinely worried.
For no reason, Dalia’s heart warmed.
“That’s……”
“Well, Duke Artus is a little anxious right now.”
Dalia nodded quickly.
Cedric smiled.
“I heard that the Crown Princess liked history books about the imperial family because she said that being a princess has been her dream since she was young. I can ask her for more details, but it seems to be a bit difficult these days.”
“Why?”
“She’s been staying in her room lately because she’s not feeling well.”
Cedric frowned slightly as he said it. The condition of the Empress did not seem to be as good as she thought.
“She’s been a little colder than usual…… I think it’s because she’s been sulking at me lately. Anyway, I was a little worried.”
Come to think of it, she remembered the two of them leaving the banquet together. Of course, she thought that they naturally reconciled back then, but did they not?
Dalia thought for a moment and said.
“Did Her Majesty the Empress go back safely back then?”
Cedric nodded.
“How did you do it?”
“I brought her to her room.”
“……Is that it?”
“What more should I do?”
Cedric blinked with a look that showed that he had no idea. Dalia grabbed the back of her neck at that unexpected reaction.
“Of course not!”
“Why?”
That nonchalant question.
Dalia somehow recalled the first time she met him. From her experience, she knew how to talk to Cedric at times like this.
She clasped her hands calmly and smiled at him.
“Please don’t ask.”
“…….”
“Just do what I tell you to do.”
Cedric nodded as he stared blankly at Dalia.
“If Sir Cedric is like that, then you and the Empress will never! You can never reconcile.”
Cedric asked back with a rather perplexed expression.
“…… So what should I do?”
“What do you think of the Empress?”
“My mother? She’s a good person.”
“Make sure to tell that to her. Also, hold her hand, ask her how she’s doing, and if there are any sad events, and take care of the little things every day.”
Cedric smiled as he listened, as if he had a rough idea of what he needed to do.
“So you mean, to be nice to my mother so she won’t be upset, right? Like how I’m doing it to you?”
“Yes.”
“You really want me and my mother to be close again.”
“…….”
“Is it because of Lady Beolde?”
Dalia opened her eyes wide. What a thoughtful way she came up with!
It’s not for personal reasons that she had hoped for him and the Empress to do well again.
In fact, Dalia visited Cedric today, prepared to do so.
When she saw Cedric at the banquet, Dalia recalled. In every route, his ending is always death.
She remembers the last words of the Empress.
“Admit it. It’s all my fault that Cedric became such a cold child.”
Dalia thought that it wouldn’t be.
She also thought he was a little crooked considering her first meeting with Cedric.
However, thanks to his confident attitude, he had never thought that his dislike of the world was ‘acquired’.
However, just like the complicated relationship between Meldon and Adrisha, she thought that the relationship between the Empress and Cedric could be some kind of ‘trigger’ that drives him to his death.
She has been thinking hard after the last banquet. What makes Cedric keep on dying in the original.
What should she do to prevent this.
To be honest, there were very few clues.
He didn’t appear much in the original, and there was no particular consistency in his death.
But there was one thing she had to look for. Cedric always reaches the boundary between life and death at the end of the route.
At that moment, there may have been a way to avoid death somehow, but instead of trying to find it, he just sighs and gives up his life.
Yes, he has always had no desperation for life in every route.
What does it mean to love life?
Dalia was so happy to live that she never had such a question.
Cedric and Dalia were so different. From loving humanity to attachment to life.
Dalia still doesn’t know how he grew up and what happened in his life, and why he thinks people are useless.
She thought that they had become quite close, but they were also far apart.
In order to know why he died, so to prevent his death, she had to know more about who he was first.
At that time, one of the most important issues appeared.
‘The reason Sir Cedric hated the world was because of his matter with the Empress.’
Wouldn’t solving the problem between the two will solve Cedric’s death flag as naturally as it did as Meldon’s case?
