The Obsessive Male Lead Made Me The Female Lead

[Lexion’s POV]

TL/N: This part switches between 1st and 3rd person again.

“What the hell is this?”

Lexion stared at the book with confused eyes.

A visibly agitated look.

As soon as Lexion read the book, he realized why he had been feeling like he was living a life that was not like his own.

The book contained a story about him. 

His thoughts were beautifully adapted and contained in the book. 

Content that seems to be him, but it’s not.

“…”

It was an epiphany close to instinct.

Lexion closed the book in fear of approaching.

After that, not only can I see the book, but I can also hear its voice. 

Previously, I thought Tiarozety was just talking to herself, but she was actually talking to the book.

Lexion was constantly concerned about her. 

Maybe that’s why.

I made such a stupid mistake.

“Ugh.”

The wounds from being attacked by the evil dragon were quite deep.

I thought it would be hard to hold out for a long time.

At the moment when I wondered if I was going to die in vain, my eyes met with Tiarozety.

Her eyes fell as if they were collapsing. 

She seemed shocked by my wounds.

“…Don’t cry.”

Lexion only tried to reassure her by parting his lips.

But she cried even more sadly.

It was so pitiful that Lexion stretched out his hand. 

Fortunately, my body moved as I wanted.

Tiarozety’s hot tears fell on his face. 

Seeing her crying sadly, Lexion’s heart seemed to be ripped apart. 

‘But I’m glad that the last face I see is you, not Princess Seirin.’

The moment Lexion was about to think like that. 

Tiarozety made a determined expression and tried to reach out to him. 

He instinctively knew what she was going to do. 

So he grabbed her hand and shook his head. 

“Don’t do it.”

‘Please…’

Even if she was an Esol, to recover from this fatal injury, she had to give up her life.

Besides, she was weak. 

I’m sure she’ll die.

Lexion didn’t want her to die.

It was then.

The book began to urge her.

– The countdown begins. Please recite specified lines.

Fixed lines. Fixed actions.

All that stuff was shackled to Tiarozety.

“You have to be happy.”

Her voice trembled as she spoke. 

“Tiaro…!”

I called her with all my might, but there was no turning back. 

At that moment, I couldn’t move as if my body was bound.

There was no way to stop her.

“[Ejis.]”

I felt the pain subside. 

Tiarozety did not avoid his gaze while trying to stop the bleeding. 

As if she didn’t want to miss a moment.

Lexion’s heart sank.

I didn’t want to live to kill her.

Even if he was connected with Seirin, he wished she was still alive. 

I thought it would be fine to just watch. 

I did, but…

“I’m going to miss you.”

Her bright smile was as warm as the sunlight.

“It’s really goodbye.”

TL/N: T^T

She greeted him as if she was saying goodbye. 

Somehow, she seemed to feel free.

At that moment, Esol’s power flashed and wrapped around Lexion’s body. 

“No…!”

Bang-!

Tiarozety flopped helplessly.

The warmth was still there, but she didn’t open her eyes. 

She stopped breathing.

“Titi, please open your eyes. Please, please…”

Lexion hugged Tiarozety and cried.

Then the book uttered in a heartless voice.

[Mission accomplished. Proceed to the rewards page.]

With those words, the book was about to disappear. 

Lexion instinctively thought he had to hold on to it.

So he grabbed the book that was about to disappear. 

At that moment, time stopped.

The evil dragon that was raging was also quiet, and the clouds in the sky stopped.

Everything but Lexion had come to a standstill.

Then the book spoke to Lexion.

– It’s been a long time since “Awakening”. My name is Guide, the administrator of this world.

“Where are you taking Tiarozety?”

– She’s just trying to finish her trip.

“Trip?”

– Those who come from outside the world are called ‘Travelers’. If they complete a given ending, they will be rewarded.

Lexion frowned at the unfamiliar words he heard for the first time.

In the end, it means that the ”real her“ was not from this world.

Maybe that’s why she behaved so differently.

“So she’s still alive?”

– That’s right. She will soon return to her original world. 

Lexion was relieved to hear that she was alive and at the same time, his face hardened at the mention of her returning. 

“I don’t think so.”

Who’s sending her back as they please?

There was a fierce look in Lexion’s eyes.

At his refusal, the guide came to Lexion’s nose and asked.

– You don’t want to let her go back?

“Yes.”

-Even if she wants to go back?

Lexion paused at the guide’s question.

He can’t force it if she wants to.

But he didn’t want to let her go.

No, I couldn’t send her.

Even if she wanted it, he couldn’t listen to it.

“…yes.”

Lexion replied slowly in a dry voice.

– “The Awakened” can be a traveler. Becoming a traveler can be rewarded.

“A reward?”

– That’s right. When you complete the ending, you can get the desired reward.

The guide opened the reward page with the words.

Lexion checked the contents of the reward and opened his mouth immediately.

“Okay, I’ll try.”

– Once selected, there is no turning back. Are you sure you want to be a traveler?

“Don’t ask me twice.”

In response to Lexion’s reply, a loud alarm sounded from the book. 

After a while, the book clung to him as if changing owners. 

After that, as the book instructed, he destroyed the already set ending. 

Lexion, who became “The Awakened” and a traveler, could easily ignore the demands of the world.

A penalty was given, but he didn’t care.

It was better than taking her away from him.

He threw himself at the evil dragon and died, and went back to the beginning again and again.

When the hero who was supposed to save the world abandoned it, the world fell into chaos. 

The fossilized guide showed the path to destruction, and he followed suit. 

When this world is complete, she will return.

Through repeated regression, the book faded to white. 

Lexion’s heart seemed to be empty.

Did the book deceive me?

She was always nowhere to be found.

“What’s going on here?”

-The second guide of her life is protecting her.

“Protecting?”

Lexion laughed sarcastically.

Protection?

It was detention, not protection.

The book always forced her to act. 

Lexion just wanted to confess his true feelings and wanted to be with her more.

I didn’t want it to end like in the past.

– The more you go back, the more difficult it is for travelers.

“I don’t care, as long as I can find Titi.”

Lexion continued to return despite the guide’s warning. 

And eventually, he found Tiarozety.

From Esol’s corpse pile 

“Found you.”

Lexion thought.

‘I won’t let her go again.’

TL/N: “Found you” hits differently now when I reread the first few chapters ahhhh!

***

[Tiarozety’s POV]

After hearing all of Lexion’s story, I was at a loss for words.

I can’t believe he’s been returning for a long time to find me.

I wanted to let it all go on my second trip because it was too heavy for me, but he’s suffered through everything dozens of times.

The fact saddened me.

I didn’t know he was looking for me.

I also couldn’t believe he had already loved me from the previous life.

“Why did you say it now…”

If he had told me earlier, I wouldn’t have rushed in circles like this.

Lexion responded with a bitter smile at my complaint. 

“I couldn’t tell you because I wasn’t sure what you wanted to do.”

“…….”

“Actually, I may have been scared. I’m afraid you’ll choose your world, not mine.”

“Lexion, I….”

I don’t know.

To be honest, I had endured this world thinking only of going back. 

In the first place, I never had a family to live with over here for the rest of my life.

‘But Lexion must have felt it even more than me.’

I didn’t know what to say.

So what should I do now? 

The destination of this trip was my original world.

If we reject it, what will happen to me and Lexion?

As I was thinking about such an anxious thought, Lexion intertwined our hands.

As if he would never let it go again, he gently brought it to his lips. 

His eyes were fixed on me.

“Do you still want to go back?”

“…I don’t know.”

“Don’t go. I can’t do it without you. I need you, Titi.”

I was moved by Lexion’s plea.

Because I didn’t want to let go of the hand I was holding.

“Do you really need me?”

I’ve always been a burden to you.

He smiled softly when I asked with anxious eyes. 

“Yes, you’re the only one I need.” 

“…….” 

I may have wanted to hear this answer.

I hope he needs me. 

I hope he loves me. 

I nodded silently.

I thought one action would be better than a few words.

All I ever wanted in this world was Lexion.

I wanted him, but I couldn’t have him, and I gave up because I couldn’t have him.

Now I can touch or kiss him as much as I want. 

When I checked my heart, there was nothing else to go through or confirm.

As soon as he heard my answer, Lexion embraced me and kissed me.

A firm hand gripped my thigh as I wrapped my legs around his waist.

He strode somewhere.

I knew where he was headed.

In the room next to the study, there was a bed to rest in for a while.

A secret room where no one but Lexion can come in.

He was leading me there.

His tangled tongue was sweet like honey.

The hands that held me were so hot it felt like they would melt.

Lexion put me down on the bed slowly. 

I was surprised when I met his eyes.

His eyes were filled with passion.

TL/N: Wow wow we already knew Lexion regressed from the previous chapter but I was shocked to find out that he regressed multiple times on purpose just to find Tiarozety!
