"Sea of Ruins.." Clara muttered softly.
"You must be wondering what is Sea of Ruins right? Its a devastated and dangerous place on the sea. No one know what happened in there before. But someone found a ruin near that place,and there is a painting on the wall that mentioned there is a war between Underworld and Sea Race. And that war created the Sea of Ruins like now."
"The reason that place dangerous was not only because its the past battleground between Underworld and Sea Race. But its because the remains of dead bodies of Underworld army were corrupt the sea. There is also many remains of destructive spell that was casted by Underworld and Sea Race."
"There is many adventurers gone toward there,but only few of them can return safely. They told many things. Such like there is a mutated sea monster there. There is also some traps that got triggered and ended up killing the adventurers. Anyway going there can be called suicide."
Clara still in the understanding of Kevin words. It contains a lot of knowledge and Clara didn't want to miss any possible detail. After arranging all the knowledge inside her mind Clara began to return in the real world.
Seeing her already back in real world,Kevin begin speaking again.
"Now you've already know the truth about this world,let me welcome you properly."
"Welcome to the Avalon. The world where many strange things happen. The world where all kinds plants,animal,human live. The world where you live. The world where there is "YOU" in that."
Seeing his warm welcome word Clara couldn't help but feel moved. All this time she was locked inside a cage. And now she suddenly became a freed bird she feels weird. Its the combination of happy,sad,nervous,and excited. Happy because she can adventure freely with Kevin. Sad because she will exit her comfort zone,leaving her own mother,father,and sister. Although Clara never allowed to go outside, her family pamper her most. She decided to definitely return to her family soon and clear all the trouble her family faced now.
Clara also feels nervous because she doesnt know what will happen in the future. She also excited because she wondered what excited things will she learn in the next moment. There is too many excited things that she want to learn right now.
'As long there is Kevin beside me, there's nothing to be afraid of' Clara unsubconsciously thought
Clara suddenly blushed with that thought.
'What the heck. What does Kevin have to do with that." She slapped both her cheeks to hide her blushed cheeks.
Seeing her suddenly slap her cheeks, Kevin startled.
'Whats running on her mind now? Such a weirdo' Kevin thought and shaking his head inwardly.
Clara then cleared her throat and decide to divert to another topic or else she would embarrass herself.
"Cough..So lets go to the next page shall we?" Clara offered with a smile lingering on her face. Her slightly blush face make her cuter.
Unsubconsciously Kevin blurted out his thought.
"Your expression just now look so cute." Kevin shut his mouth swiftly inwardly.
Seeing his compliment Clara blushed harder. She can only meekly lowered her head and thanking with a voice that soft as mosquito. Both of them become quiet after that. The atmosphere become awkward all of sudden,then suddenly someone tap her shoulder.
Clara swiftly turned her head toward the person who touched her. Seeing it was the receptionist she then asking her
"Whats wrong?" Clara asked confusedly. Is there something wrong,why would she come here all of sudden. OH! Dont tell me she saw me speaking with Kevin like a mad woman.I was too occupied with Kevin compliment that i didn't notice my surrounding.
'Shit' Clara thought.
Seeing Clara expression changed from confused to shocked make receptionist think that Clara only just now aware of the time
"You only just now aware of the time dont you? Now you can see young miss, that our library is about to be closed. So i advise that you should go home swiftly before outside become darker, that will be quite dangerous for you then."
Clara sighed of relief after hearing her explanation.
'Lucky me, she didnt notice i was speaking to the book all of the time.' Clara thought gladly.
Clara then nodded her head then swiftly packing all the things she had and decided not to borrow the book because she will come again tomorrow.
She then thanking the receptionist and bad her goodbye.
"Thank you. See you tomorrow." Clara then bowed her head and begin walking to inn direction.
After her retreating figures dissapear the receptionist muttered softly.
"Such a beautiful and nice young lady, but unfortunately she got a mental problem." Shaking her head in pity the receptionist closed the door of library.
