At this moment, the atmosphere was unbearably heavy in the room where the humans resided. Matthew and Maya sat on one side, their expressions unreadable. Taylor clenched his fists tightly, remaining silent.
On the other hand, the dark espers stood off to the side, looking relaxed and exhilarated.
Suddenly, Julia stretched, her face bored. "So, when exactly are Clow and that useless guy returning?"
Alexis giggled. "Clow? No idea. But that useless guy? He's probably still writhing under Leonard, hahaha."
Jack scoffed indifferently. "Wouldn't matter if both of them died. They're equally worthless anyway. For ages, I've wanted to cut out that Leon guy's tongue!"
Alexis reminded him, "Don't forget, he's the heir to the Curtis family. If we take him outside, we'll never have to worry about money for the rest of our lives!"
The group chatted excitedly, completely ignoring the gloom that surrounded Matthew and Maya.
