After that, everything in the Kingdom of Liberl seemed to have returned to normal. Except for the fact that the royal palace needed to be repaired again, nothing seemed to have changed.

For the students of Genesis Royal College, gossiping about what happened in Gransel at that time was meaningless. What they had to do now was to face the upcoming exam week.

"Wow... I didn't expect it would be this late."

Walking on the dark path, Alyssa couldn't help yawning, and Ellie next to her hurriedly apologized.

"I'm sorry, Alyssa, it's all my fault that I asked you to stay with me..."

"It's okay, it's okay. I just need to review my finance courses. After all, it's exam week soon. If I don't do well on the exam, it won't be acceptable... Ellie, how are you reviewing?"

"Fortunately, the sociology courses are simpler than I thought, and Mr. Fang Zheng's lectures are also very simple and easy to understand."

"Besides programming, I really don't understand what he's talking about. Every time I'm in programming class, I instinctively want to sleep. Look, now I'm sleepy again... Whew."

As she spoke, Alyssa yawned again. Seeing her reaction, Ellie couldn't help but smile bitterly, but at this moment, she suddenly caught something from the corner of her eyes and stopped in a hurry.

"What's wrong? Ellie?"

Seeing Ellie suddenly stop, Alyssa turned her head curiously to look at her, while Ellie was pale, staring blankly at the night sky in front of her.

“You…you…you…”

"quiet?"

Alyssa also turned her head and looked in the direction of Ellie. Then, she stood there as if frozen. In the night sky not far above their heads, a white shadow emitting light was floating back and forth... floating back and forth...

“You…you…you…”

“Ghost aa ...

The next moment, the two girls screamed, then turned around without looking back and ran to the other side of the school building.

"…So, you two woke me up from the ** just to tell me that you saw a ghost?"

Sitting in the **, Fang Zheng looked at the pale-faced Alyssa and Ellie with displeasure.

“Let’s not talk about Ellie for now, Alyssa, this isn’t the first time you’ve seen this.”

Fang Zheng was referring to the time long ago when he took Alyssa and others to explore the Saint's Castle in the town of Regrum in the Erebonian Empire. At that time, the girls encountered many ghosts and monsters. Fang Zheng originally thought that Alyssa had gotten used to it...

"It's not like I'm not afraid just because I've seen it before!"

Hearing this, Alyssa jumped up immediately.

"Or maybe it's because I've seen it before that I'm more scared! This is all your fault!"

"So, where is this ghost you're talking about?"

Fang Zheng opened the curtains and looked out the window - there was nothing in the dark night sky.

"It's right there. It's not there now, but it was definitely there at that time!!"

As she spoke, Alyssa desperately pointed out the window, and looking at the frightened expressions of the two, Fang Zheng shook his head helplessly.

"It seems that you really lack exercise."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng got off the bed, walked to the door, and then... he locked the door with a "click".

"...Mr. Fang Zheng?"

Seeing Fang Zheng’s unexpected behavior, Ellie was stunned, and Alyssa stared at him uneasily.

"Wait, what are you doing, Mr. Founder?"

However, Fang Zheng did not answer their questions. He then reached out and turned off the light. For a moment, the whole room was dark, and the two girls subconsciously hugged each other tightly. Then, Fang Zheng lit a dim oil lamp and placed it in front of him.

"What? Haha, it's very simple. You are afraid of ghosts because you haven't developed enough resistance to them. So..."

"So?"

"So, today I'm going to be here, telling you ghost stories all night long."

"……Why?"

"Wait, wait a minute, Mr. Fang Zheng, please, I'm begging you, I can do anything, just this, just this please let me go!!!"

Ellie hadn't reacted yet, but Alyssa had already jumped up and screamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

“Help! Help! Help!!”

"Hehe, today is my night shift. There are only me and you three in this building. Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng sat down on the chair and looked at the two girls in front of him with a cold and gloomy smile.

"So, the first story is... Hanako in the toilet..."

“Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!”

The girls' screams came from the door, then echoed in the dim corridor, and were gradually swallowed up by the deep night...

A night passed.

The first rays of sunlight shone in through the window. Chloë opened her eyes, put on her clothes, and then looked at the empty beds on both sides.

"Where did Ellie and Miss Alyssa go? Why didn't they come back all night? Could something have happened?"

After putting on her uniform, Chloë Segal left the girls' dormitory building. At this moment, she saw two figures stumbling towards her.

"Alyssa? Ellie? What happened to you?"

Chloë was shocked to see the appearance of her best friend and roommate. Both girls looked haggard and pale, and their uniforms were wrinkled and looked like they had been torn. Not only that, their eyes were red, as if they had been crying.

Seeing this, Chloë ran to the two of them and supported their shaky bodies.

"What on earth happened! What happened to you?"

"It's Fang Zheng, Mr. Fang Zheng...he..."

Mr. Founder?

"What happened to Mr. Fang Zheng?"

"He, he played tricks on us for the whole night..."

"……Why?"

Hearing this, Chloë was stunned. They became like this because of Mr. Fang Zheng? How is it possible? The Fang Zheng in Chloë's memory was not someone who would do such a dirty thing!

"How is that possible?"

"It's true! He locked us in his room and kept telling us ghost stories!"

"……ha?"

"Yeah, I don't dare to go anywhere now, Chloë. Woo woo woo... I don't dare to go to the bathroom, I don't dare to go back to the dormitory, and I don't dare to go to the classroom. If it wasn't dawn, I wouldn't even dare to walk here..."

Alyssa was about to collapse. She had listened to Fang Zheng's ghost stories all night, and now she felt that there were ghosts everywhere. Fang Zheng also said that this was called "shock therapy". Alyssa didn't know whether it could cure her fear of ghosts, but she knew that she was not far from shock... There were several times when Alyssa even thought that it would be great if she could faint, so that she would not have to suffer those ghost stories anymore.

But for some reason, the more she listened to ghost stories, the more awake she became. As a result, she did not fall asleep all night. Instead, she hugged Ellie together, trembling with fear and screaming from time to time. Now Alyssa felt that her voice was hoarse, and her uniform was torn too hard by fear and became a mess.

Of course, a young lady wouldn't go out to meet people with this image on weekdays, but now she couldn't care less about this!!

"Well……"

Looking at the two crying people, Chlos was confused.

What exactly happened last night?

"Oh, these two guys rushed into my room late at night, saying they saw a ghost. I thought they were lacking in exercise, so I let them experience what real horror is."

Facing Chloë's question, Fang Zheng gave a quick answer.

After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Chloë was speechless.

"Ahem, Mr. Fang Zheng, you can't really blame them for this. In fact, there have been similar rumors on campus during this period. Several students have witnessed white shadows floating in the sky at night. I've heard about that, too."

"Oh? Have you seen it?"

“…”

Chloë shook her head.

"I heard that it only appears late at night, so only those students who stay in the club or have something to do can see it. I haven't tried it."

"Is there really such a thing?"

Hearing Chloë's answer, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows curiously.

The Genis Royal Academy is haunted? How come he doesn't know?

Chloë couldn't explain this matter clearly, but fortunately, there was someone beside Fang Zheng who could explain it clearly.

"Yes, Mr. Fang Zheng, there are indeed similar rumors in school recently."

Curled up in Fang Zheng's arms, Tova blushed and whispered.

"Our student union has received several similar reports, and some of us have seen the white shadow in the dark...ah..."

Fang Zheng lowered his head, felt the temperature of the girl's delicate skin, and then gently bit her earlobe.

"But why didn't the principal say that?"

"Because it's exam week soon, the principal feels that spreading the news would be detrimental to the students, and he has already entrusted...ah...um...the Guerrilla Association to be responsible for...um...the investigation..."

At the end of her speech, Tova's face turned red, she closed her eyes, and her whole body suddenly tensed up, hugging Fang Zheng tightly.

"Since the Guerrilla Association is in charge of the investigation, then everything should be fine."

After hearing Tova's answer, Fang Zheng was relieved. After all, he was just a substitute teacher, not the principal, and it was impossible for him to worry about everything in the school. Since the principal had already made arrangements, it was not his turn to do anything.

In comparison, it is more important to enjoy the beauty in front of you.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng once again focused his attention on the petite girl in his arms.

After all, a night of love is worth a thousand gold, so let other people deal with ghosts and monsters.
