Ok. This just my guess from reading different manhwas, but I think that our fl and the fairy are the same person. As in she is not possessing the fairy's body, she is the fairy. I think she both reincarnated and regressed. Also I don't think that our fairy/fl cursed Cedric, but they blamed her because she's a fairy(as in a scapegoat).
In the book that our fl read it doesn't say that og protagonist regressed. The book follows the timeline in which protagonist has her op powers, our fl didn't mention anything about protagonist dying at 16 without any powers and then regressing with powers. That leads me to believe that not everything that's written in book that our fl read in her past life is to be trusted.
That's why I think that our fairy/fl didn't curse Cedric and that's why she also regressed, but with the memories of her past life. Same as the protagonist, they both have been blamed for something they didn't do and got killed because of it. Just the timeline of their regression differs.
This is it, so far.
The og protagonist regressed. That's something that our fl did not mention, which means it's not written in the book that she's read. The protagonist mentioned that after she regressed and obtained her new powers Cedric got cursed by a fairy. And that she feels sorry for that. That means that in the timeline where she didn't have powers Cedric was not cursed
But didn’t fairy fl talk about Cedric’s curse from the beginning on. I mean she talked about the novel and the whole storyline was about him being cursed and dying. That storyline equals the original fls timeline before her regression. So it wouldn’t even make any sense that Cedric wasn’t cursed before og fl got her powers in her second life
Yeah right she did say that but I assumed it was meant in a way that she feels sorry for not regressing even earlier in order to get rid of Cedric’s curse as well.
What?? Why isn't she able to get rid off it now then? I don't see what would have changed if she regressed a bit earlier. Or even if she was to regress before he got cursed, if she meant it in that way, what could have she done to prevent it? It makes no sense.
Unless she meant that even though she got her powers now she still can't do anything to help him. But I think she would have said it in a different way.
I don't know if the writing or translations are the problem. But I'm not sure what could have been written there in the first place that they have made a mistake.
So it appears to me that regression of the protagonist was not a new thing, but it follows the actual story. The last thing she said is that Cedric got the fairy curse, because she regressed, which means in the original timeline, before she got her powers, Cedric was not cursed. Which leads me to believe that the appearance of our fl didn't cause the regression of the protagonist (I'm terrible with names), or they're not actually directly connected.
The translations, if incorrect, might have caused a confusion, but this is what I've gotten from them, if they're correct.
