Big Capitalist

"Nothing, it's just you... You are scarier than any demon I have ever seen." The Moon Whisperer finally mustered up the courage and whispered. Its voice was trembling, but it was full of unyielding stubbornness. Although it had no way out, at least in words, it was unwilling to completely surrender.

Merlin touched his chin and looked at the twisted and sticky black liquid creature in front of him. The Moon Speaker no longer condensed into the appearance of Stacy. He didn't expect that in the eyes of the Moon Speaker, he was actually a creature more terrifying than the devil.

You are so handsome, okay? Merlin was in a bad mood and yelled angrily, "Now, immediately, get back to Stacy's body. If I know you dare to make trouble... hehe."

The Moon Whisperer felt a chill in his heart. Although he had not signed any contract with Merlin, he felt that his body did not belong to him. He realized that he was trapped under Merlin's shadow. That sinister smile and those greedy eyes seemed to be constantly devouring his freedom and dignity.

A feeling of powerlessness surged in its heart, and then it turned into a pool of black liquid and slowly flowed away. At the moment the Moon Whisperer disappeared, the Night Speaker's ruling area surrounding the teacher's apartment also completely dissipated.

Those corrupt goblins formed by the negative emotions of the students dissipated in the air like flying ashes, turning into invisible dust and drifting away with the wind.

Carl and Alex, who were covered in wounds, breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the natural guardians disappear before their eyes. Although their bodies still felt pain, the oppression in their hearts was much relieved as the goblins disappeared.

The two supported each other, their eyes revealing a tired yet relieved look.

"It's finally over." Carl coughed and said softly, his voice was a little weak, but also revealed a hint of relief.

"Yeah, it's all over..." Alex shook his head, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, Delia and Shirley came running over with anxious looks on their faces. They quickly took out potions and light magic and began to treat the two's injuries.

"Are you all right?" Delia's voice was filled with concern. The potion in her hand emitted a faint glow and gently sprinkled it on Karl and Alex's wounds. As the potion poured in, their injuries began to heal gradually, and the pain was slowly reduced.

"Thanks to you guys." Carl smiled slightly, feeling his body recovering, and a surge of gratitude welled up in his heart. "Without your help, I'm afraid we really wouldn't be able to hold on."

Shirley silently performed light magic, her hands drew a beautiful arc in the air, and the warm light surrounded the two of them, as if dispelling all the haze. Although there was a trace of fatigue on her face, her eyes revealed determination and courage.

"It should be thanks to Senior Yuna and Senior Merlin." Shirley smiled slightly, her voice gentle but firm. She looked in the direction of Yuna and Merlin and continued, "They defeated the dark fairy."

As their wounds gradually healed, Carl and Alex's spirits gradually recovered. The two looked at each other and understood tacitly that although they had just experienced a life-and-death test, their friendship became stronger.

"Where are Senior Yuna and Merlin?" Carl stood up and sheathed his sword, his tone showing a hint of worry. His eyes roamed around, trying to find the figures of the two key figures.

Delia pointed to the distance and said, "No, they are taking care of the elves over there. They have been corrupted by the dark magic and have suffered a lot."

Carl followed Delia's instructions and saw Yuna squatting on a patch of grass, concentrating on healing several injured elves. In her hand, she held a necklace that could release light-attribute healing magic, and the power of holy light was slowly dispelling the darkness.

"Let's go, don't just stand here and watch, let's go and help." Alex said as he walked towards where Yuna was.

Kairos struggled to stand up. He had been resisting the erosion of dark magic, and he saw everything that had just happened.

"Merlin, thank you." Kairos grabbed his clothes tightly and started to falter like a woman.

In the "backstage" where the story of Moon Whisperer ended, Merlin was rummaging through the ruins in front of the teacher's apartment. He heard Kairos' voice and nodded without any emotion, "Be nice to your sister in the future."

Merlin's words were like a thorn that pierced a corner deep in his heart. His thoughts were instantly pulled back to the past, recalling the teachings of his mother - the gentle but firm woman who was also the sister of Stacy's mother, who once told him the same thing.

Kairos, who was in a state of self-blame, had his eyes gradually dim. He thought about the "Stacy" he faced today. Although it was a mimicry of the Moon Whisperer, it also dug out the darkest side of Stacy. But even so, the "Stacy" mimicked by the Moon Whisperer just wanted to make them taste the pain of being bullied. If it were someone else, they might have been killed long ago.

Kairos felt deep regret for bullying Staci. Even though she had been bullied by these "noble" elves, they never really realized her pain, and even they were just hypocritically "protecting" her to satisfy their own despicable desires.

Behind the fountain outside the teacher's apartment, Merlin observed that the shadow of the Moon Whisperer flowed towards this location. He pushed away the stone blocking his way and found Stacy in the corner behind the ruins of the fountain statue.

She curled up tightly, hugged her knees with her hands, and buried her face between her legs, as if trying to hide herself.

Merlin relaxed at her appearance and asked, "Stacy?"

Stacie slowly raised her head, her eyes full of guilt and pain. She looked like a child who had made a mistake, with a face full of grievance, as if she was deeply regretful for the chaos she had accidentally caused.

Her voice was weak and trembling: "Merlin... I'm sorry, I... seem to have messed up everything..."

Merlin squatted down, his eyes softened. He knew that Stacy didn't mean to make things so bad. Stacy always took on everything alone where no one could see, and wanted to respond to other people's expectations with her own efforts.

Merlin had seen Stacy busying herself until the evening more than once, writing tomorrow's work plan and arrangements for him, as well as studying the courses at the Beast Taming Academy. She was really working hard.

However, because of the failure of the contract with the Moon Whisperer, her efforts and expectations seemed to have vanished at this moment, leaving only despair and pain.
