The Resetting Lady

The banquet is over.

Karen flopped down on the bed. The trinkets on his body were half the weight of Karen, so it was hard just to stand. I tried to take it off, but it was complicated and difficult to take it off.

There should have been an assistant maid, but there was no one around Karen. It wasn't normal. A house of noblemen, or a house of his own, always has at least one maid for the guest. That's because you can change your clothes.

A royal palace requires more and more people to wait by her side. But there was only silence in the room. It's common for maids to follow suit even if the owner doesn't order it. Karen sighed.

"Your Grace is not very popular.”

It was uncomfortable, but I didn't want to ask Gwiz to call a maid, so Karen tried to take it off by herself and gave up and lay down on her bed. I thought I should remove my makeup, but it was hard to go out and find someone. I can't believe the prince's government has to ask the maidens to bring me wash water from the palace.

'Well, I'm sure I'll see myself coming here.’

The room where he stayed was the room of the dead prince. No matter how much the government may make a pet, it was certainly not a wise choice for the government to use such a room. I would have given you a room like this on purposely. To show the king and Lewis that it is not just a pet. To make you feel uncomfortable.

And the other nobles and the people would accuse Karen, who has the audacity to use the princess's room, of being a girl. However, if you are to be criticized, you should be extravagant. Karen closed her eyes grumbling.

If you want to imitate a real tyrant's pet, you'll be defeated, but you can see that he's doing something because it's fake. This is fake. That's fake. It's a luxury and it's a lot of jewelry, but if there's no one on the market, you can't wear it, so it's not a luxury.

"I don't want to be alone....”

When I am alone, I only think of bad things. It's one's old habit. I am immersed in my own world again. I spent a hundred years like that.

How long should I spend in the future? 1,000 years? 10,000 years? 100 million years? Karen huddled her body and hugged her belly. How much longer do we have to spend to reach death?

Be merciful to me. Let me cut this tough life off.

But prayer is out of reach. This fate will not change. God has imposed fate on women, but it is not God who has set fire to them that cannot be separated..

Close your eyes. Tears won't dry out. Only a long sigh comes out.

You have to think differently....

Then, I fell asleep far away.

knock, knock

"…come in. It's too late.”

Karen opened her eyes slightly and spoke in a Bolmen voice. My voice is a little hoarse.

The maids seem to have just arrived. I've been waiting for you for so long, but now you're here. I wanted to wash the powder off my face and take off my clothes that were pressuring my body like Gapju.

knock, knock

Is the door locked or not heard?

He managed to lift himself up and headed for the door. But when he reached out, Karen realized that she couldn't feel her presence outside the door. There is no one at the door.

Knock, knock, knock.

The knock was heard not from the door but from the window next to it.

"What, what, Lord Raymond?"

Karen almost screamed in amazement for a moment, but she grasped her heart knowing that In-young knows well.

"Why are you there? No, I know why, but all of a sudden...!”

His voice grows louder because he is embarrassed by his frightened heart. Raymond stopped tapping his hand with a suspicious face. Then he whispered near the window.

"Carran, the door...No, I'll just open it myself."

"Don't break it!"

"Hush, hush."

Suddenly, Karen opened the door with the transparent window on the balcony. I was about to go out, but stopped.

"Wait a minute."

It was quiet around. Karen looked around for a moment and went out to the balcony. It was drizzling.

Raymond's hair was slightly wet.

"Your hair is wet."

"Yes, thanks to you, no one's watching. There's less fire....Where is Prince Gwiz?"

"In his room. Fire?"

"That's what happened. Is Prince Gwiz visiting at night?"

Raymond paused and shrugged his shoulders away as if nothing had happened.

"Not yet. I'll be free until morning. But you have to be careful just in case."

"Okay. Where are you hurt?"

"No."

After hearing the answer, Raymond hugged Karen tightly.

Karen also put her arm around Raymond's waist. I felt like crying for some reason when I hugged my big hard body. I knew you'd come. I knew we'd meet. I knew he'd come to pick me up. Even in this life. My article. My own.

"Carran, wait....”

Raymond's hair was wet and stuck to his forehead. I took off my blindfold that was covering one eye, apparently because it was wet and uncomfortable. The scar across the eye was revealed. Poke the blindfold you had in your hand into your pocket.

Karen said, sweeping Raymond's eyes. The chest was protruding, but it was also on the face of a handsome man, so it had its own wild charm. He must be handsome even when he's old.

"The wound lasts longer than I thought."

"But it's much better."

"What about your eyesight?"

"I can see it."

"…you said it wouldn't be a problem."

"Well, a little... But it's not a big problem."

Obviously, it wasn't long before we were apart, but strangely, it seemed like it had been a long time. Raymond looked down at Karen with hazy eyes and laughed.

"Didn't anyone hurt or kill you?"

"…joking isn't fun.

I was just about to be moved. Karen tried to pinch but stepped on it because she thought it wouldn't hurt. But I just ignore whether it's ticklish or not. Raymond mumbled as he hugged Karen again.

"I didn't want to go see it again because I was upset if I was executed again."

"No, at least an enforcer should be friendly. What do you mean? Anyway, it's not too late this time."

"That's a relief."

I should be thrilled and complimented, but maybe it's because we expected it too much, but I'm still tired. Karen asked with Raymond in her arms. Strangely enough, I keep feeling weak.

Again. Do they know the reason? I think I should do my best with my head, but my resignation kept pressing my body.

"Are you here to pick me up?”

"Yes, Your Highness has made some of the users do something else. I know the way to get away. If you just run away like this, your life will end safely. Let's go home. There's nothing good about getting tangled up with your ears."

Maybe that's why there was no one around him. Prince Louis seemed to care for Raymond. Raymond took himself off Karen and held onto the railing. looked back at Karen and said,

"Carran, grab the title. We have to escape before the shift comes."

"Now?"

"Yes."

Raymond answered repeatedly. But Karen shook her head.

"Your Highness has declared that he will bring me into government. My face is already known to the aristocrats, and it is impossible to escape without anyone noticing even if there are no servants next to me.”

"I can go."

"And the father and the House of Verdick will be over.”

"Why did Verdick Evans... Is it working?"

"It's my friend's family. Don't you feel a little different in this life?”

“…….”

Raymond didn't answer the question.

Karen laughed bitterly at the silence. It was obvious that Raymond was thinking. Killing them all and taking him away with him is his way of thinking. But in this life, you can't. I don't want to. You've come all the way here. How can you choose such an easy way when it's a world outside of a book you've found in a hundred years.

"Your Royal Highness ordered me to kill King Louis.”

Raymond's body stiffened. Karen saw his condition in her arms and thought, 'As expected.'

"Of course I have no reason to kill...But the important thing is... As you said, if we just run away without doing anything, Prince Louis will die again this time. Are you satisfied with that? You don't mind that?”

"Carran, I... "

Karen closed Raymond's mouth.

'It has nothing to do with me.’

I don't want to hear such an answer. I don't want to hear such a lie. It can't be. Living with only one person in mind is actually a life of giving up everything.

It is the same as when he was only immersed in pleasure or fun.

"Sir Raymond, maybe it has nothing to do with us. Like you said. Like I told you not to care about Isella. We have an advantage in time, and this is just a time that can be repeated again."

It's meaningless except the two of us.

"You told me that there was no future in which King Louis would become king. So there's nothing we can do...How about now? I mean it."

"Even now... he... I don't think I'm going to live."

"But I don't want you to die.”

"Carran, I really... It's all right with you."

"So you're going to kill Prince Louis?”

"Carran, I....”

Raymond clenched his teeth.

Karen said the last.

"In this life, let's make a more constructive life, let's try harder, you agreed."

"I didn't agree."

"But I told you I'd follow you."

Not only for the two, but for the world, for society, for the wider world with family and friends, but for the flow.

"I'm pregnant."

wanted so much

Your end. Your new end with Raymond. Your new life.

But Raymond's face didn't look very happy.

Oh, I see. He knows. He knows the truth....

Karen felt a little bit like crying. looked up at his face from Raymond's arms and bowed his head again and asked.

"Did you hear from Isela? Did Zion tell you?”

"I heard it directly from both of them."

"Lord Raymond, I'm glad that Isella came all the way here for me. And I want to see Prince Louis alive and put the crown on his head. I wish there was a boy who liked you. I want to see the boy who was killed by his father next to me become king."

The rain grew louder. Karen felt rather fortunate that her face was wet from the rain.

"So far… I've never done it before."

Like Isela came to her for the first time being. I can't wait to see such a miracle. I want to hope for a better world. I want to look forward to a world in which good is repaid with good and evil with evil.

"Lord Raymond... Actually... I wanted to say that. Why don't we make a better world for our children? Until yesterday... I thought about it.”

“…….”

"You know that."

Biting his lip. Raymond knows. You don't have to say it out loud. They both know.

The fact that she's pregnant.

And the fact that a child can't be born.
