The Resetting Lady

"I told you I wasn't there."

Hahaha, ho ho ho ho ho ho.

Zion and Isela smiled and saw Raymond.

Raymond was dumbfounded by the empty back of the carriage.

"…oh, hell…. Zion… You punk. The show we did earlier....”

"Lord Raymond ran away because he was scared."

Zion smiled brazenly and pulled Isella.

"If we go this way, we'll get it right."

"The Evans wagons are very light and fast.”

"It's more likely that you'll notice it faster than that. Lord Raymond's suspicions are very persistent.”

Isela's plan to take Karen directly to the nearest port and take her out on a small boat to a large vessel was slightly modified by Zion, who knew Raymond well.

"Let's use two smokescreen operations. I'll go first and draw attention to Lord Raymond. And if you drive a carriage, Lord Raymond will surely follow you. Ms. Karen is hiding and when Lord Raymond leaves, you can take another carriage to the old road. And when we get to the nearest town, we'll switch here to another carriage and arrange for a ride....”

"Is it necessary to do that?”

"This is a very poor plan against Lord Raymond."

But honestly, I wasn't confident.

But Raymond was a little dazed by Karen, and he fell into Zion's trap. There was an Isella in the carriage, so Raymond was perfect in the distance to confirm the image of the woman reflected in the carriage window.

Zion and Isela smiled broadly at Raymond, who was deceived.

"How would you like to handle it?"

"Xion…. Ugh….”

Raymond gritted his teeth while he was angry.

Because he had the perception that he had done something rude. And if I wanted to catch up with Karen again right now, I had to cover up the situation.

Raymond closed his eyes tightly, sighed, and bowed his head.

"I'm sorry, Isela. I made a mistake."

It was Raymond's defeat.

***

"Oh, my God. Crazy...That's all water.”

"Yes, miss."

"That's all water! All water under the sky! Oh, my God!"

Karen gave up her composure and shook Nancy in surprise. Nancy, who had lived on the beach during her wandering life, was not a great sight, but it was really a great view for Karen, who saw the sea for the first time in her life.

We finally arrived, leaving Raymond out.

Karen herself felt a little guilty about cheating on her lover, although she chose and pushed without hesitation. And I was afraid that the sea would be boring, so I was afraid that I would be disappointed.

However, as the morning came and Karen faced the sea, negative emotions such as fear and disappointment disappeared in a blink of an eye.

the white clumps of clouds over the blue sky The smell of the pouring salt was not so unpleasant even though it was not for the first time. The world of deep blue water is different from the lake before us.

The sight was really worth the adventure.

"For those of you who are going to board the Royal Lewis, please come to dock 3!"

"That's the ship. Let's go."

Karen walked with Nancy.

"Get on this boat?"

"Yes."

Apparently, the ship advertised in the newspaper was much larger and had a higher floor, which was a two-story wooden boat on the dock.

'No way, hype?'

In my head, I could imagine Isela laughing loudly. Maybe Isela in this life was vindictive inside.

"Isn't your belly too small?"

"They're going to ride this ship further to the sea."

"What? Why would you do that? It's better to be right next to him, isn't it?

When Karen asked with a puzzled face, the man who was shouting to get on board laughed.

"It's not a ship of that size. It's impossible for the ship to enter the dock because the depth of the ship must be quite deep. If it's about the size of the Royal Lewis, it's going to ruin everything around here if you try to stay here."

"Why are you saying that your surroundings are ruined?”

"You'll find out when you see it. Come on in."

Karen and Nancy boarded the guided ship.

There were quite a lot of people on the small boat, but Karen was worried that there would be a lot of people even after she moved to the big ship. I have to spend quite a long time on the ship, but I have to be with so many people.

"Wow."

Nancy, who had not responded well all the time, murmured.

"Look at that, lady."

"It's been a long time since she got married, and she's still a girl."

"That's not the point. That's....”

Karen turned her head.

And he realized how ridiculous his worries were. The appreciation of the big picture that I felt vaguely through the painting was different from what I actually saw. Karen seemed to turn her hair white for a moment.

If they cheered in admiration after seeing the sea, the appreciation of the ship was close to fear.

"What is that... that's a ship?"

That?

Can I call that a ship?

Can that be in the sea?

That was a small floating village. a huge white castle that goes on endlessly As the ship got closer and closer, it was a size that didn't even show at a glance.

"What is that?"

Karen, who was born and only rode a ferry that roared on a lake, was shocked to see a large vessel on the sea. I thought I had a lot of experience and knowledge, but when something ridiculous came to my eyes, I laughed even though it wasn't funny.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.”

Can you call that a ship? Is it okay to float on the water like that? Karen laughed. It wasn't a smile to control. I knew that people laughed even though they were so embarrassed.

"Madame, wake up."

"Ho ho ho ho ho... Crazy..." What is that…."

"Hahahahaha! I've never seen a ship like that!"

"What is that…"

Karen got on board the ship in a state of derangement.

I felt like the world had turned upside down. My heart throbbed.

A small boat approached the large ship and stood in front of the stairs leading up. A handsome flight attendant, who must have been deliberately picked, reached out to Karen and grabbed her hand. Winkling her eyes was Isella's taste. Karen climbed up to the deck in admiration of Isela's meticulousness felt by one of the employees.

"Welcome. May I have your name, please?

The neatly dressed woman asked Karen. Nancy answered with her head slightly down on Karen's behalf.

Karen Haier... Baron Karen Seyertes."

The female employee greeted me with courtesy.

"Welcome. I got a word from Mr. Evans. I'm very happy that the Baroness has visited. Please come this way. And do you have any more luggage?"

"This is the only one.”

"If you need anything, please call someone anytime. I'll bring it to you. Also, there is a store street inside, so please let me know first if you need a porter for shopping. Or we can bring it to your room later."

There's a "street" in the boat.

I wasn't surprised at all. It wouldn't be strange to have anything on this scale.

"Do you want to rest in your room first? Or should I show you first?"

"First of all... I want to rest in my room."

"Yes, we have a special room. Follow me."

Karen moved and several crew members followed her. Karen went up to her room and saw the view of the huge ship.

"That's the pool."

People were dressed in light clothes around the pool on deck. People were playing in the pool or hanging out on sunbeds.

"At night, the ball is held every day, and there are a variety of things to see, including magic shows and animal shows. The theater holds plays and operas every day, and the restaurant receives song requests, so if you tell us the music you want, we play it in order."

Even if Isella has a lot of money, she can't really get a sense of it if she stays right next to her. If clothes were luxurious or valuable, Karen could get as much as she wanted.

But I felt a little strange when I saw in front of my eyes that a small village floating on the sea belonged to one person. It was different from owning a land or a castle.

"This room."

I thought I should say, 'This is the house.'

Even if it was a room, it was a double-decker with an open space and a high ceiling, so it was not an individual room.

In front of us, a blue sea opened up through a huge open window of sunlight. The endless sea and the luxurious interior created by human hands contrasted, giving an impression that was hard to express.

In the room, a thick blue carpet was laid on the floor and there were long wooden tables and chairs for many people. On the table, the real flowers curled and harmonized skillfully.

"Take a good rest and ring the bell if you want to see it. The waiting crew will be right there."

"Yes, thank you.”

"Please have a good time, Baron Sayertes."

The crew bowed down and retired.

The door closed and Karen lay on the bed. As expected, it was soft and good. You must be familiar with this luxury, but you stayed at the Hayer House. Karen laughed when she thought of it. I can't believe there are three ships like this city.

Karen mumbled in bed.

"I think it's good to have a lot of money."

"Now you know?”

"Yes."

Karen lay down and laughed.

Money, love, friendship, everything was meaningless.

Isela will continue her business and there will be more new things she can see. The world was wide and there was money and youth, so there was really a lot of work to do.

I'm glad I ran away from home.

***

The time on the ship passed in a flash.

Since I had no financial worries, I could buy whatever I wanted and enjoy the entertainment I wanted to do.

The Royal Lewis, which had just left the port, was satisfactory to Karen's eyes, as it was taken from the royal family from its name. Above all, cruise travel did not just mean that the ship was crossing the sea all the time.

We traveled for several days to visit cities along the coast, and Karen was excited every time because it was our first visit.

"Madam! Slow down...!”

"Hurry up and come!"

"You're pregnant. What's so fast?”

"It's not even close. You're too slow. Don't show your age and come quickly."

Nancy followed Karen with a short breath. Karen leaned against the fountain while drinking a red sanguine with ice. Nancy, who had been chasing her, sat down on the fountain, catching her breath.

Karen looked up at the buildings on the street.

It was also different from buildings in several areas that I have seen throughout my life. This southern marine city was a gentle place throughout the year, surrounding the sea. White houses with blue roofs filled the whole city were dazzling.

"Do you have anything to buy here?"

"I'm thinking about it now. I don't know the time....”

"Madam?"

"Oh, no. Let's go back in a little bit."

He seemed to have seen something.

Karen pulled Nancy, feeling a little chilling.

"You're mistaken....yes…."

"What?"

"No, wait a minute. Don't move....”

Karen closed her mouth.

Oh, my God, that crazy guy.

Raymond was looking at Karen with his mouth shut.

"…Oh, my lady… Run, run?"

"Late… eh."

Should I scream?

But this was a foreign country. There's no one to help me. Or is it possible for anyone more than that to help themselves? Against that Raymond?

with a gulp

Karen swallowed her saliva. No, maybe it's just someone who looks like him. Maybe he's just another handsome guy who looks like Raymond. Even though you're staring at yourself and approaching, it's possible.

"Well, I'll be on the boat first! If you're late, I'll tell him to leave first!"

Traitor!

When Karen saw Nancy running away first, she reached out her hand, but it was useless.

Chin

I finally got you.

Raymond put his hand on Karen's shoulder. I avoided looking, but I couldn't avoid hearing a faint voice.

"Is it good to travel without me?”

"How the hell...?”

"The ship has already left, so I have to go somewhere and wait. Thanks to that, I crossed the mountain range alone and tried every means. I've been lost in three cities that are just a short distance ahead of me, and I've been lost...Anyway, it's not too late this time."

It was fortunate that Raymond didn't grind his teeth.

"Isn't that enough now? Thanks to you, I couldn't sleep. I'm telling you again and again...I'm not at this age anymore."

Raymond's voice was harsh.

Karen felt her hand on the shoulder gradually getting tired.

"Let's go back."

"Well, I still have a trip left...It'll be over in a month or two."

"Don't be immature."

Karen took Raymond's hand off.

"Is it really that mad that I want to see something new because I said.

"Safety..."

"If that ship is dangerous, it's dangerous everywhere in the world."

"You're in a dangerous situation, so you don't know what's going to happen."

"That's how everyone in the world lives!"

Karen eventually turned up the volume.

If taken like this, it will be five years. No, Karen hasn't believed in five years. His logic is that the world is dangerous, so don't go anywhere. Five years later, not a year later, he will say the same thing.

'It's over when you die. You have to be in a safe place.' That's enough. They all live once in a lifetime. I would only live a hundred years and die if she was born. What's wrong with living by doing what you want to do?"

"You can't live doing what you want to do."

"You have to do what you want to do within the environment allows you to live."

"I agree with the tone, but I disagree with this trip."

Karen fell from Raymond with an angry face.

Then he moved to the ship. As he walked, Karen retorted to Raymond.

"There's a difference here."

"What?"

"You're saying this is an unacceptable line for Lord Raymond, right? But I don't need your permission. I'm going. If he dies, tell Duran to continue his research. Don't follow me right away. I'll think about it for another 50 years."

"Carran!"

"If you follow me right away, I'll die right away.”

Raymond took hold of the wrist. Karen felt pain because she held it so strongly.

"Are you trying to use your strength now?”

"Take this with you."

Raymond gave Karen a package.

"I left my medicine."

"This is…."

"It's from Father Duran. Three times a day, 30 minutes after meals."

“…….”

Raymond frowned as he touched his forehead. It was hard to tell whether he wanted to be angry or crying. Anyway, he looked complicated.

"I actually thought about it after you left. You are right. I don't want to detain you, but that's how I behave. So I was just going to deliver the medicine, but...I was really going to.”

“…….”

"When I saw you in person, all I could think about was taking you home.”

Karen picked up a package of medicine.

The instructions were written. And it was about 7 months before giving birth, so check with the doctor again and contact me if there is a problem. It was an extremely dry object with only a doctor's position written on it.

Before I knew it, the ship was coming in noticeably. It needed to be ready.

"Have fun. I'll try not to follow you, so don't run."

"…sigh."

Karen sighed deeply.

"You're right. You should be careful when you're pregnant."

"Well…."

"That doesn't mean I'm going now."

"…yes."

Raymond opened his eyes and lowered them again.

Karen said, handing Raymond a package of medicine again.

"But I think you'd better check with me in advance to see if the food is normal or if the weird people are trying to harm me. Oh, I know. Come with me."

"What?"

"Are you not coming?"

Karen said grumblingly.

Traveling alone was also good. It was a tremendous shock in itself to feel the sense of freedom in a place where few people knew about themselves, or to encounter the streets, environment, and food they saw for the first time in their lives. It was a joy that could not be compared to the people I saw every year doing something different than before. It was a fresh stimulus that couldn't even be followed by murder.

However, as they repeat themselves day after day, they also want to have a partner. I had some fun being alone, but I didn't want to be alone all year.

"You don't need to get a new room. The room is so big... Yay!

Raymond hugged Karen and lifted her.

"We can hear the ship leaving, so let's hurry up and go. Nancy really just wanted to leave."

"…Run."

"Yes, hold on tight."

Raymond ran for the ship.
