This is becoming a bit too much, honestly. I don't find the MC's reasons for remaining low-key at this point to be sufficiently explained or well reasoned out. Even putting that aside, I just don't believe in Cedric's character anymore. No matter how low key a person is, their fundamental character should still be there. He doesn't have to be the high and mighty Reyes heir to have a strong personality. He should have enough capability to stand up for himself, just as the ordinary Cedric. The fact that he refuses to this extent doesn't make him low key or cautious, it just makes him seem weak. It's difficult to respect a guy who refuses to stand up for himself. Even beggar should have some self-respect, no? Even if he was completely powerless, with nothing but a napkin to his name, there's no need to let things carry on like this. His personality seems weak and easily moved by others.
