[Blurb]

Lufilia has exhausted herself working for the good of her country.

She improved women's status and developed the economy and trade. As a princess, she even took on the job of repairing the sewers! She donned armor and reclaimed the throne from the treacherous minister who had usurped it, then restored order in a nation gripped by fear and put everything back on track.

Then, on the day of the victory banquet, she died after drinking a cup of poisoned wine.

Her final thought was: I worked for nothing my whole life. At least let me rest for one day before I die!

Perhaps a god heard her wish. After her death, Lufilia became an ordinary young woman in another world and truly enjoyed a leisurely retirement.

But one day, she and her classmates were pulled into another time and place by a summoning circle at their school.

"Saint from another world, please save our country!"

Faced with the all-too-familiar throne room, its inexplicably vacant throne, and a roomful of pale-faced ministers, she could think of only one thing:

Am I going to be working for nothing again?

She has been summoned sixty years into the future, to the country she once fought so hard to protect, now on the brink of destruction.

Minister 1: This is the holy sword blessed by the God of Light!

Lufei: ...

She forged it.

Minister 2: This is one of only three precious potions in the entire country.

Lufei: ...

She brewed it.

Minister 3: This is our national treasury.

Lufei: I earned that money. Where did all my money go?!

Looking at the country's deficit and its helpless subjects, Lufei explodes.

It's only been sixty years! How did the country this princess worked so hard to protect end up in such a state?

Minister 4: Th-This is the Demon King who will destroy the world.

Looking at that inexplicably familiar face, Lufei starts to question her life.

The villainous boss is also...

Someone she raised?

A hard-working princess x a long-lived wizard who enjoys life

The heroine loves this world, and the hero loves the heroine.

"Because I met you, I thought... perhaps it wouldn't hurt to love this world, just once."

(A coming-of-age story)

Lufilia is a pampered little princess.

She enjoys jewels, fine dresses, delicious food, balls, gardens, and castles, yet scoffs at the extravagance of the nobility and dreams of the pastoral idylls described in books.

Then one day, she wakes up and discovers that she has become a girl in an ordinary village.

Before she can even scream at the flies and rats, a burly woman kicks open the shabby wooden door.

"Uncle Fagus's cow is having a difficult birth! Hurry and help!"

Shoved into the cowshed, Lufilia is on the verge of tears. What pastoral idyll? It was all a lie!

Aidi Deluca is a powerful wizard from a secluded family. But after a mistake during a spell experiment, he accidentally loses his body.

To be precise,

he becomes a newborn calf on the verge of death.

Even though mystics believe that everything happens for a reason, Aidi nearly breaks down when faced with this reality.

And when a young woman, wearing an expression like she is marching to her death, pours cold milk into his mouth, he almost loses the will to live.

And so, a village girl who claims to be a princess and a cow who claims to be a wizard begin their great rural adventure.

Theme: Love does not fade with time. Seeds planted with kindness will one day bloom into flowers just as gentle.
