The Resetting Lady

Raymond explained enthusiastically with a grenade in his hand. To sum up, all he had to do was pull out the pin and throw it. Then she held a similar weight of ornament in her hand.

"Let's test it first by throwing it. It's dangerous in the house."

Karen glanced down at it and said,

"Who's going to turn it off later when a fire breaks out by throwing a grenade?"

"I..."

Raymond soon found it impossible and shut up.

In the end, what Karen could use was a pistol similar to what he was using. Raymond gave Karen a pistol and said with an unhappy face.

"I'm nervous as always. I don't think there's anything I can do if bandits or beasts attack me."

"So I told you not to be without employees."

"…how do employees believe it?"

There are things in life that cannot be avoided no matter how hard you try. It is the same with Raymond. The causes before they are repeated are stacked to create the current events. Even if Raymond retires, things promised before and future will force him to do what is now. Raymond has no choice but to leave Karen at this moment. Just like Prince Gwiz had to go to work when he approached Karen.

I heard for a long time how to effectively swing the hand axe, and I heard for a long time how to load the rifle and how to advance, but Karen seemed to be too much too much.

"You're leaving in a few days. How effective would this be? Why haven't you said anything so far?"

"I thought I'd be back in a day."

"But has your schedule changed?"

"Yes, the target was somewhere else than before."

"Is that so?"

Raymond and Karen struggled for a long time in the garden and in the hall before finally getting tired and decided to have a cup of tea in the drawing room.

"I've thought about just taking you, but it seems more dangerous.”

"Me?"

Raymond shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "It's just a family." Karen thought about what to refute to Raymond, who was talking nonsense, but the tea was hot, so she just drank it quietly. I was so tired that I couldn't smell the tea.

"If you had at least the strength and physique of Xenon, I would go with you."

"…Sir Raymond. Janon is the most physically fit man.”

"I know it's a meaningless family. Plus, you don't get that big even if you gain weight.”

Raymond sighed with a look on his face that he would rather do so.

"Oh, that's... You remembered....”

Just forget about it.

Karen blushed at the thought of one day when she had plumped up. I worked hard to gain weight, but I didn't like it that much.

"So why haven't you grown your muscles? Wouldn't it be better to have a thick body line than a weak one? Well, it's too much since it's only been a year, but why don't you start working out later? I'll help you."

By Raymond's words, Karen imagined her forearm as big as her waist now.

"I don't like it."

Karen answered sternly.

"Think about it, Karen, if you have a strong body, you won't be ignored anywhere. It's definitely comfortable."

"It's because you're a man. What do you think I'm going to do when I'm strong? And now I can't be as tall as you are."

"Wouldn't there be less chance of dying?"

"Lord Raymond, stop making boring jokes."

"I'm always serious."

"Stop it."

When Karen pinched Raymond's side hard, he screamed and stopped. And he smiled and sighed without knowing that he himself was too much.

"I'm definitely nervous. You've never been in danger during this period.”

"But most of the time, I've done work. At the time... I was a bit aggressive, so I think it's the reaction."

Karen died a year later, but she didn't die before. Even if he was in danger of dying, he didn't die. After 117 years, something was broken and he could die before, but Karen seemed to live as well until a year ago if she didn't overdo it.

"It's not going to be all right.”

In fact, it wasn't that scary now even if I died and started again. Because Raymond remembers. Even if you start over, there is someone who remembers her, so you don't have to be afraid to start over.

"Well, if I die, I'll start over."

"Don't talk like that."

"Still. Don't be too afraid. Why are you so nervous when you can start again, not just this time? I would live again if I died."

Raymond and Karen had many opportunities. Just as Raymond remembers it all, no matter how many times Karen dies.

"Surely, Lord Raymond, you're not afraid to die anymore."

"What?"

"You used to be scared.”

"…did you?"

"Yes."

Raymond looked a little puzzled. Karen smiled weakly.

"I remember waking up sometimes and being scared?”

"…I see."

Raymond wrinkled his eyes as if he were groping for the past.

Again, the conversation was cut off and there was silence. Karen regretted that she put death too lightly in conversation. The recent series of short deaths was a farce for the dead, but for him, one death would have been a repeat of life for decades.

If you don't want to see a dark face, you should try not to die again. Fear of Karen's death seemed to be more Raymond than Karen. It is more painful to see death than to die.

It was Raymond who started the conversation again.

"First of all, I'll set up all the traps at the woods and entrances."

"That's fine. But can't I go out in the meantime?"

"I'll tell you everything, so keep that in mind."

"…I see."

When Karen sighed, Raymond stood up and pulled Karen's back neck. Raymond's lips gently touched and fell.

"Drink your tea first."

"Wait a minute."

Raymond's breath got a little rough. My lips tasted like tea. But it tastes sweeter than the tea in the teacup. It's definitely the same car. Karen pulled more Raymond. The tongue was mixed and the breath was mixed.

The touch was so natural now. You must be bored while you're gone. Karen looked up at Raymond with that thought. His eyes were bent. I liked the sparkling dark green eyes. He looked like he had seen it at the end of the end or sometimes.

Raymond took his face off and said,

"I'll stop by the capital and come back, so I'm going to get my clothes tailored. What do you think?"

"But it's still ready-to-wear."

I didn't expect much of the clothes there. said Raymond, soothingly stroking his head at Karen's ball-men.

"I'm old."

"Yes."

"I'll be the first to bring clothes that will be in fashion in a few decades."

It seemed quite interesting. Karen put her arm around Raymond's neck.

In two days, I'll be alone without Raymond. Karen wet her feet by the stream and wondered what to do.

Why don't we go through the mansion and find out what Raymond did? Or should we try the raw laziness that Raymond couldn't do when he was around? He is lying on the bed with a pile of snacks. That sounds pretty good, too.

No matter how long he lived, Karen had to wash, groom, and move every day. It may be okay to be extremely lazy when Raymond isn't here. It's really just me.

"…Oh, I can't."

At least they had to feed the livestock. There was something to do even if it wasn't cleaned. Would it have been better to have a user at the risk of his life? Karen sighed.

And then the wind blew strongly.

"…Oh, dear."

Karen sighed as she saw her hat on her head fall over the water. It was a waste to just throw it away because it was a new one. Karen looked at the mansion.

“…….”

Raymond was busy getting ready to go out two days later. Karen looked at the stream. It wasn't that deep. Under his waist.

And what he wore was rough clothes worn by the users. Clothes were much cheaper than hats. Karen got up and went into the water.

“…….”

Then I grabbed the hat.

Karen picked it up and tapped the water out. The water was not very deep either. And the moment I went out of the stream.

"…huh!"

Karen slipped on a rock at the bottom of the stream and fell into the water. The water filled the view. Leaves and petals that fell on the surface of the water were floating.

Karen tried to re-establish herself. It wasn't something to be very embarrassed about. But I kept slipping on the stone, and as I struggled, my skirt felt heavier.

Oh, no.

Karen realized that the underwear she wore was a new order. I forgot because I wore it inside, but it was quite heavy because there were layers of lace.

You're not gonna die like this this time?

Karen herself was a bit of a cheer. What a ridiculous death! Well, one day, I got stuck in a plate of water and died. It could be like this. Isn't accidental death easy? It is possible to drown by accidentally.

Karen felt less and less energetic.

The sky that I saw in the water was beautiful. And it was breathtaking but not strangely painful.

It was a quiet and peaceful place. Karen smiled faintly at the sky. But it was okay this time.

I got along well this time. Raymond remembers her and will come back even if she dies. So Karen waited for death to come from underwater.

But I was worried that Raymond would be sad.

Look, Lord Raymond.

It's better to have users. That's what I'm going to say next time.

Karen's wish, however, was not immediately realized. Someone lifted Karen, who was drowning, strongly.

Argh!

Karen clung to the arm and welcomed the world that welcomed her again rapidly. Outside the surface of the water she was hit again gave her pain. Pulled up, Karen coughed on the water's edge.

"Cough, cough! "Boom!

The water came up from the inside. A liquid that was not known whether it was tears or water flowed from the eyes.

"Oh, my God. Are you crazy? Huh? What are you doing?”

Karen saw the man who pulled her up. Then I rubbed my eyes. It wasn't Raymond.

"Stay alert."

I thought it was someone I've never seen him before. But the voice was familiar. And he was never supposed to be here. He was the last person to do such a thing. Karen seemed to be strangled. I thought I threw up all the water, but something kept getting stuck in my throat.

"Thank you…."

It was Berdick Evans.
