Unruly Behavior Of A Curse Lawless Woman

Old Aunt, please stop trying to lure innocent young people…

Hearing the voice of Squishy on her mind, Claret just inwardly roll her eyes at him before finally having enough of being called an old and aunt which she has directly given Squishy an image of her hand as she raises up her middle finger toward him, which is a well known bad sign on her previous world.

After a silent moment between them as Squishy tried to remember and search about what his bound partner is trying to say in her memories that he has a right to know and after finally learning about it.

@^&(#&(@!

Secretly happy at the unintelligent words of her System Squishy reply, Claret showed a charming expression to the gorgeous young man who is really pleasing to her eyes.

Ding~ Task reminder, Host, please start your mission~

Huffing inside from the sudden interrupted prompt of Squishy was still annoyed by her actions in their spiritual link, Claret with a gentle smile still in her beautiful face has turned around and taking a step toward the middle of the river while her emerald eyes glowing a bit, as her spirit energy eyes ability is finally working.

"Claret?"

"Hmm? Ah, wait a bit Theo, I need to do something or else, I will lose my eyesight again."

Seemingly making the moment light and funny, Claret let out a chuckle in a pleasant way so that the young man will not worry much, but in her eyesight, there is dark energy coming in the center of the river, it was the same type of energies that she has seen before she has been cursed after entering the current world.

'This is?' Claret asked Squishy.

'Light and Dark' has always been opposed to each other however it is also the one that will easily and strongly resonate against each other. During the time that you have been playing, something seemed to has been called by your song while the light magic that you have let out resonates with the dark energies.'

'Just like I mention about you before, some negative energies sometimes appear in some part of the Edhel Continent and surprisingly some of it appeared in this place, though I don't know when it happened, however, if it was left alone, this place and the surrounding area will become dangerous later on.'

As she heard Squishy's explanation, a frown couldn't help appear on her beautiful face.

Although Claret like the villagers after interacting with them when she goes to visit the place but she won't go out on her way to become their savior, after all, she wasn't a Saint.

As for being a hero, this world already has one, there is no need for her to become the savior of the world.

Yes, just like her being called a traveler by Squishy, there are also the races, mostly human though, that summons a hero to help them during the time of their needs which usually happen when the negatives energies are spreading more faster than ever in the Edhel Continent and this time a hero already has appeared, which she has learned from Squishy and surprisingly her mother Celine, which tells her that Celine wasn't just a simple person, but no matter what, since she sees her as her love one and another Family, Claret will never disregard her love one.

Finally arriving a bit closer and seeing as she needed to go deeper in the water, Claret just felt lucky that she knew how to swim or else this will be a hard thing for her to do.

Remembering the figure of the young man standing a distance away from her, Claret turned around at the worried but silent gorgeous young man.

"Theo, I'm just going to do something so don't worry and wait for me alright?"

And with a flash of a gentle smile filled with warmth toward Theo, she turned around and swim ahead and going deeper in the river, leaving a nevertheless worried Theo despite how she tried to comfort him with her smile.

As Claret went deeper and seeing as around her is current dark, she instantly has used her light magic to lit around her while also conveniently protecting herself from being attack by the negatives energies.

And at the bottom of the river, Clare sees that there was an item surrounded by negatives energies within it.

"Cover your hand with light magic and get the items in your hands."

Hearing the words of Squishy, Claret frown a bit before deciding to trust her System, after all, she remembers the oath and vow of their contract, thus she reaches over with her hands to take the item.

And as soon as she touches it, her vision blurred before broken images flash on her mind, along with the sound of a young girl and other unidentified people echoed out.

"... you… what are you…"

"... it hurt… sobs… stop it… please…"

"... let go… you'll pay for this!"

"... hate… hate… hate this world… I want… everyone to die…!"

Screaming, pleading sound, scornful laughter and the crying sound filled with intense hate and despair echoed out loudly in her ears and soon Claret suddenly felt an overwhelming pain all over her body like she was being tortured cruelly.

And when Claret consciousness has gotten back from the whirlwind broken images and being affected physically and mentally to what she has been shown, she only wanted to take a deep breath only to choke up when it was water that enters her mouth and nose, making her want to cough up.

Finally remembering that she was still deep in the water, she swiftly and quickly swum up, and as soon as she reaches above the water, and she instantly coughs out the water out before another rapid cough soon followed and before long, finally managing to take a deep breath that she always wanted to do in the first place.

"Claret! What happened? Are you alright???"

Claret who was breathing hard, suddenly heard the sound of a huge splash of water after the worried voice of Theo reaches her ears, and as soon as she can react, Theo has quickly reached her side, before her shoulder was grip by a rather large hand belonging to a man.

As she tried to blink the water over her eyes, a warm palm gently gets rid of it for her making Claret to finally see the close worried face of the young man, causing her to be in a daze for a bit, because damn, this person is really gorgeous that make people, well mostly women, jealous by his appearance.

"Ah… that was a bit surprising… sorry to make you worry Theo, I was just surprised by something that is all, haha."

Chuckling again, Claret tried to explain herself in a more gentle way not wanting to worried the young man any further, however, Theo just shoot her a look 'Like Hell, I'll believe you this time' before holding her whole body in one arm, before swimming back to the shallow part of the river.

The entire time, Claret just kept quiet while secretly gazing at the serious and concern young man before her.

Huh… this feeling really nice to have... This notion of being taken care of by this person… was something that she isn't against with...
