Returnee VS Possessor

God hates me.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had everything taken away to this extent.

When I finally found an abandoned mine that was said to have magical energy flowing through it:

“Oh my, how unfortunate. A high-ranking person made the exact same proposal yesterday.”

The day before I could place a deposit, someone beat me to it.

When I created a hunter’s guild by feeding and housing the homeless:

“We want to try advancing in life, too. We’ll repay your kindness in the next life.”

A noble family took them away by offering them a large sum of money and promising knighthood.

Still, I didn’t give up.

I was going to spend all my remaining wealth to buy a painting.

“You have a good eye. Will the empire’s citizens think so too?”

“I’ll make sure they do.”

But right before finalizing the contract, the artist unilaterally broke our agreement.

A life of misfortune where everything failed.

At the moment I reached the end, that woman appeared.

“When I was confused about the details, I just watched your moves. And in the final moment, I was just a little faster.”

The one person who stole all my plans, Grace Servais.

“The person I used as a benchmark was you all along, Iris.”

She was a possessor.

*************************

After fighting and getting entangled with her, I returned to when I was eighteen.

With all my memories intact.

“I see. So that’s how it was.”

I muttered to myself while standing in front of the mirror.

“I really did have everything, didn’t I?”

Grace, now I understand, just a little bit, why you were so confident.

Knowing the world’s secrets truly was a powerful weapon.
