I limp for set value and hit bottom set. I reraise the opponent and he rereraises super small. It seems strange to me, cause I think he would have raised a better Ace and I don't think he would make this move with Ax or Kx. Maybe he could have slow played AK I think.
Can I fold it in one of five times? Or do I have to go broke on that board?

you go broke on that board no matter what kind of action comes ;)
no way that CO has KK or AA here as beeing the 3rd limper preflop.
agai´nst any other hand you are a huge huge favourite.

but i would not raise this hand on the flop. without a flush draw out there i would slowplay this hand on the flop.

so normally you should just call and try to get more money in on later streets. if you raise him now, he might get away from a hand like AJ.
so the normal play should be to slowplay the set here.

as played you should only CALL his reraise. again for the same reason. your hand is so strong that you dont mind if he sees another card or not.
your all in might chase him away of AQ, AJ or somehting like that.

but no you can never ever fold a set on such a board.
never
ever :)
