The Most Powerful Characters In The World Are Obsessed With Me

That’s why he’s in town…….

Meldon quickly looked through the documents.

Growing up in the back alley, he probably didn’t receive a proper education, but whether he learned it from Cedric or it was a male lead buff, or a transcendent buff, he was very skillful in extracting only the necessary information from the documents.

“As you can see from the flow of this document, most of these treaties were renewed quickly and simply. There have been times when diplomats were not dispatched, and only documents were updated. It’s a very neat treaty. However, I think we should see how this treaty progresses and its outcome.”

“Even so, Duke Artus wouldn’t have sold such important information to other countries without thinking…….”

“Or maybe the Holy Empire is waiting for him to get into more trouble on his own. Enough to give information to them on his own.”

Cedric said.

Meldon lightly jotted down only the necessary information, then put the papers back in place.

“How do you feel after hearing this, Your Highness the Prince?”

“It was okay.”

“Really?”

Perhaps it was an unexpected response, Meldon replied in a flustered tone. Cedric was only smiling.

Dalia was just listening because it was a complicated matter to judge based on what she heard.

‘I see. Aceras is still…….’

There seems to be no chance that he will suddenly repent and get along with the Frederic Empire.

While other male leads were walking away from their route, he was still following a steady bad ending route.

That fact somehow weighed on Dalia’s mind.

‘No. Why do I have to feel responsible for the life of someone who wants to kidnap me?’

Dalia shook her head.

As expected, she can’t leave Aceras as it is.

She ignited her resolution. Then, she remembered something she hadn’t thought of.

“Then should we discuss this treaty issue with Duke Lewayne Blueport?”

“That’s right, Dalia.”

Cedric replied with a very friendly smile to Dalia. And he looked at Meldon.

“That’s what you have to do from now on. It’s a message from His Majesty the Emperor.”

“Ah, I thought the response was good, but you’re making me do something again”

Meldon chuckled.

“But I knew this would happen and dealt with it in advance. At the next treaty renewal, Lewayne Blueport will come to the capital.”

“Yes? What did you say?”

Dalia jumped up with a start. Cedric asked with a puzzled expression.

“Why? Do you know him?”

Dalia shook her head. But it’s Lewayne! He is the last male lead of this world!

‘Then all the important people will gather next spring.’

Somehow, it felt like the end of the original was approaching.

Dalia had a strangely complicated mind. But she tried to hide it. After all, there was still a lot of time before he really came.

* * *

Thanks to Dalia’s brief absence, Cedric and Meldon were the only two left in the library annex.

Cedric said, skimming through the treaty documents brought by Meldon.

“I didn’t expect that your wits would be worse than your conscience.”

There was only laughter in his voice, which was a blatant criticism.

Meldon didn’t bat an eyelid. He had known him for too long to deal with each one of these things.

“Are you being jealous? Miss Dalia invited me. If you’re going to blame someone, you should blame her, not me.”

“Dalia is innocent no matter what she does.”

Cedric said promptly. Meldon paused for a moment, then asked.

“Sir Cedric, do you want me to tell you why you’re not making any progress with Miss Dalia?”

“No.”

Cedric immediately refused.

But Meldon still looked at Cedric with a pitiful expression on his face and said.

“As long as Miss Dalia is doing it, everything is fine, it’s good, that’s why. All girls your age like bad boys.”

“I want to beat you to death right now, so am I a bad guy now?”

Cedric said calmly, still flipping through the papers.

Meldon pretended to cough and avoided eye contact.

‘Is this not working either?’

He decided to try something a little drastic. ‘Inducing jealousy’, an old method that has been used since ancient times.

“Then what if Miss Dalia falls in love with me?”

“Well, if Dalia does, then there’s nothing we can do about it.”

Meldon sighed.

Why does he act like he had sold his conscience elsewhere……?

“But why do you keep talking about her? Do you really like Dalia?”

For the first time, there was a reaction.

Cedric raised his gaze, which he had only fixed on the document, and looked at Meldon. And he spoke in a friendly tone.

“But that doesn’t mean we’re going to fight here until we die because of it, right?”

Unlike the soft tone, the energy around him seemed like it’s going to cause an accident if really needed.

‘You’re just like yourself even when you get angry.’

“……when will I ever see her and like her?”

“I’m glad that you know.”

Instead of provoking him further, Meldon changed the subject.

“Do you have any idea on what conditions the Holy Empire will persuade my father?”

“Well, isn’t the condition is for taking care of you? I hope for that too.”

“You’re too mean.”

Cedric put his chin on his hand and spoke softly.

“If possible……put the Duke of Artus into a corner.”

“…….”

“So he couldn’t stand it and cooperated with the Holy Empire on his own, whether it was information or anything.”

Meldon broke into a smile.

Common sense should be the opposite of what Cedric is saying now.

The moment Duke Artus hands over the information, the treaty will become a piece of paper, and one of the transcendent from the five families will be forced to go to Mount Gatran.

Cedric, however, did not say the opposite of what he intended. He meant exactly what he said.

After Dalia was almost kidnapped by the Holy Empire, the Imperial family continued to prepare plans. To never lose her.

They loved Dalia as much as the Holy Empire wanted her.

‘I’m glad Aceras happened to show up in this Empire.’

He thought to himself.

“Your Highness, I think you’ll be much better at it than I am.”

“I don’t want to get involved with those filthy rats.”

“The same goes for me. So I’m going to teach you something.”

“No, don’t teach me.”

“Even though it’s related to Miss Dalia?”

Cedric looked at Meldon with a look of contempt.

“Okay, say it.”

“If you look deep inside Miss’s bag, you will find something. Well, it might not be there if she put it away beforehand.”

Cedric’s mood became even more unpleasant because he seemed to know Dalia well.

“You want me to rummage through her bag like a rat?”

“The choice is up to you, Your Highness.”

Meldon grinned provokingly.

It was a smile that knew that Cedric would never get over those words.

‘Should I just not let him get away with this?’

Cedric thought seriously.

* * *

By the time Dalia returned, Meldon had already gone.

Cedric was lost in thought and smiled when he saw her.

“I don’t think the meeting is over yet. Shall we have dinner at the palace?”

She was apologetic for bringing in Meldon, and spent dinner with Cedric at the palace.

After dinner and dessert, Cedric offered to take her to the mansion in a royal carriage while Dalia touched her belly.

Cedric kept looking out of the window while they were riding in a carriage together.

His contemplative profile was of course surprisingly handsome, but Dalia was a little worried because it was not common for him to do so.

“……Are you still in a bad mood, Sir Cedric?”

“……No, it’s not like that.”

A firm answer came back. Dalia was disappointed for no reason, so she tried to look out the window, but she gave up and pouted her lips.

After a while, Cedric turned and looked at Dalia.

“As expected, I can’t.”

“What?”

“How can I not like you?”

“What, what?”

Dalia’s face turned bright red in an instant.

Cedric didn’t mind at all, and grabbed Dalia’s hand with both hands and placed it on his lap.

“I was thinking about saying this, Dalia.”

“Wh, what do you mean?”

Cedric’s expression was very serious.

Dalia saw his eyes shining on her unwaveringly.

Unlike his rigid jaw or prominent eyebrow bones that are approaching adulthood, his eyes still have boyish beauty, which always bewildered Dalia.

It’s not a confession, is it?

Her heart is not ready yet.…..!

When Dalia is running all kinds of imaginary scenarios by herself.

“Can I look at your bag?”

“……Ah, yes.”

The sentiment was shattered.

Dalia was somehow upset and pushed her bag into his arms. And now she began to look out the window.

“Are you angry, Dalia?”

“No, not at all.”

But even when she heard it, it was a blunt tone.

She’s being so hard on others because she was embarrassed that she wrote a novel on her own.

But she still didn’t dare to look at his face. Instead, she softened her voice and said.

“Please feel free to take a look at it.”

“……Yeah, thank you.”

Cedric lightly kissed Dalia on the back of her hand as she turned her head out of the window, causing her cheeks to blushed again, then he slowly opened the bag.

‘But why does he suddenly want to look at the bag?’

Dalia mustered up the courage to turn her head slightly, rolled her eyes as best she could to look back.

It didn’t contain anything very important. There’s only a letter, she didn’t think that Cedric would read it secretly.

“Ah.”

At that moment, a raspy groan escaped Cedric’s lips as he found something in her bag.

If it wasn’t for only him and Dalia in here, it was so unfamiliar that she wouldn’t even think it was from him.

A sound that seems to reverberate from the depths of the underground water.

“……Wha, what’s the matter?”

Dalia was surprised then took the bag back and looked inside.

But there was nothing in the bag or in Cedric’s hand, which she looked at just in case that could be a problem.

“Huh? Why?”

Cedric looked at Dalia very nonchalantly.

‘Ah, did I hear wrong?’

Dalia shook her head as if nothing had happened.

Translator Note: Did Cedric got tricked by Meldon?? or did he really found something??

++just tl the other chap..he did found something
