I Have been Reincarnated As a Lazy, Arrogant Noble, but When I Destroyed The Scenario Through Effort, I Became The Most Powerful With Extraordinary Magical Power - Chapter 254: In My Heart

Chapter 254: In My Heart

“Do you really think… the demons will attack again?”

At Lilith’s words, I looked up at the sky.

I took a deep breath and thought back on everything that had happened.

And then—

“Cynthia, Lilith. What I’m about to tell you is all true. But there are things I can say and things I can’t. Will you still listen?”

I had made up my mind to tell them.

I didn’t know if they would believe me when I said I was someone else.
They might even think I’d lost my mind.

“Of course.”

“Lord Weiss, I’ll listen!”

But the two of them answered with smiles.

Ah, I was grateful.

So, I told them a little about the world I came from and that I had played a game called Noblesse Oblige.

I told them that they were characters in that game.

But I barely spoke about the future.
I was certain that knowing it would change what was to come.

That’s why there was little they could trust.
It was an absurd story.

Yet, both of them listened seriously until the end.

Then, they said something I hadn’t expected.

“Lord Weiss, you really are amazing!”

“…What do you mean?”

“You knew the future, and yet you didn’t run away! If it were me, I would’ve run!”

“Lilith is right. I admire the way you keep moving forward, Weiss. And don’t worry—we will always be by your side. Nothing will change. We’ll stay right here with you.”

At that moment, my heart trembled.
It felt like something warm had touched it.

I see.
I hadn’t realized it myself, but I must have been struggling inside.

Maybe it was because, deep down, I felt like I was deceiving them.

But they accepted me.
And that made me happy.

“…Thank you. I’m sorry I still can’t tell you much.”

“It’s okay! From now on, I’ll always be here to support you!”

“Me too. From now on… let’s face the future together.”

I didn’t tell them about my impending ruin.
But they must have sensed it anyway.

From my words and actions so far.

Even so, Cynthia still said we’d face it together.
Her kindness reached deep into my heart.

“Sorry, both of you. —I’ll be counting on you from now on.”

“Yes! Let’s start fresh from here!”

“Same here. And when the time comes, tell us everything. We are on your side, Weiss.”

This unexpected break had left me feeling more determined than ever.

I would continue honing my skills as always.

“But this is surprising. In that game or whatever, you and I were in love, weren’t we?”

“Wow! And was I secretly working behind the scenes for you, Lord Weiss?”

Cynthia was close to Alan.
Lilith was scheming to kill me.

There was no way I could say that.

“Hmm, I wonder. It feels like that might have been the case.”

“Hehe, just as I expected.”

“Ehehe, that makes me happy!”

But really, these two were far too good for me.

I swear.

I will absolutely prevent my ruin.
