"Then what are you here to do?"
Finally getting to the real matter at hand, the Knight stopped in his tracks, turned to look at her, and said softly, "I am here to ask you a question, or rather, to give you an opportunity."
Teresa sensed the seriousness in him, unconsciously setting aside the distractions in her mind, tensing up as she watched him nervously.
"...Opportunity? What do you mean?"
She had a feeling she was about to hear a question beyond her imagination.
Sure enough, what Teresa heard next from him left her whole being shaken to the core.
"If you were given a chance to re-choose your life, what would you do?"
Teresa: !!?
What was he talking about?
"If you were given another chance, how would you choose?"
"Would you choose to live as an ordinary human? Continue to be that carefree and naive village girl?"
As the Knight's words fell, Teresa felt a change in her body.
"My... my body!"
