The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Back at Lee's house, Theresa felt a little lost.

Because of an order, Theresa's relationship with Li had a huge breakthrough. However, to Theresa herself, all this was still as elusive as a dream.

Theresa didn't know what attitude to use towards Li, as well as Li's relatives and friends.

Theresa has tried her best to reduce her presence, but unfortunately, the malice directed at her has never stopped.

"Goddess, please destroy the heretic before you..."

"Theresa, don't you like this dish? Come and try this. It's made according to the recipe Li gave me. It should be in line with the dining habits of the church~"

Lilith's mother picked up a large piece of stir-fried celery and put it into Theresa's bowl. Theresa whispered thank you and lowered her head even lower.

Before she met Lee, Theresa would never have dined at the same table with a vampire.

According to the teachings of the Holy Church, Theresa would shout "Death to heretics!" while wielding holy light at the vampires.

But now, Theresa was sitting with two vampires, one big and one small.

Theresa felt the malice grow even deeper.

"Aunt, you better stop bullying her."

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very strange. Li tried his best to change the subject to make Theresa feel more comfortable.

But Li also felt indebted to Lilith. They had agreed to slowly develop feelings for each other, but suddenly a sister appeared.

The meal was extremely uncomfortable. Even with her mother's support, Lilith acted throughout the meal with the pitiful look of being abandoned by her loved one.

Li was scolded by his aunt several times, and after dinner, he was forced to go to the sink to wash the dishes.

Theresa sat alone in the chair, watching Li communicating with his aunt with an embarrassed look on his face.

Theresa felt that she shouldn't be here.

There is no place for her in this family.

"Theresa, don't worry about what happened just now."

After leaving Lilith's house, Li took the depressed Teresa back to his home.

No one had cleaned the place for several days, and a layer of dust had accumulated on the furniture and the floor.

Li, exhausted both physically and mentally, was too lazy to move his hands late at night. He simply cleaned up the bedroom and lay down side by side with Theresa.

"Aunt and Lilith have no ill will towards you. They are mainly targeting me."

Li smiled bitterly and explained the complicated relationships in his family to Theresa.

Theresa suddenly turned her head and looked seriously into Li's eyes.

"Why do you care so much about my feelings? I was the one who offered myself to you, or rather, I forced you to do it. Why do you always act like you owe me something?"

As Teresa understood it, her relationship with Lee was more like a transaction.

The orders from the Temple, to keep in touch with and monitor the magician with the backlight, nothing more.

"Theresa, I don't know why you took the initiative to take this step, but to me, you are an important person. I hope that the relationship between us can make you feel calm, stable, and happy, instead of nervous, confused, and self-enclosed!"

Li conveyed his feelings to Theresa. Unlike the natives of this world, Li has the moral bottom line on Earth.

In the absence of any fundamental conflict, you should love your wife with all your heart!

Theresa felt a love in Lee's words that she had never felt before.

Born and raised in the church, although Theresa was cared for and nurtured by many people, she had never felt the same excitement as when facing Li Shi.

Emotions that had never occurred before appeared in Theresa's heart for the first time.

It made her a little scared, yet full of anticipation.

Seeing that Theresa's mood had improved a lot, Li didn't say anything more.

They will have a long time to spend together in the future, and Li believes that Theresa will slowly come to like spending time with him.

Night fell, and the sky was filled with starlight that was completely different from that on Earth.

Li has slowly fallen asleep. The hard work of the past few days has seriously consumed Li's energy.

Theresa is not much better than Li. The changes in relationships and the progress of the mission all affect Theresa's condition.

Listening to Li's breathing beside her, Theresa slowly closed her eyes. She was trying to get used to having someone sleeping next to her, and also to that hand that was not restful even when she was asleep.

But this hand gave Theresa an indescribable sense of security.

Before she knew it, Theresa also fell into a deep sleep. Her brain entered a relaxed state, with only a small active area busy constructing a dream.

In the dream, a glowing figure ordered Theresa to return to the Holy Mountain to report on her work.

Theresa woke up suddenly. She thought that after staying with Li, she would no longer have to endure such strange communications.

As a result, what was supposed to come came.

"How could I..."

Theresa woke up from her sleep and was surprised at her condition while trying to calm down her tension.

Theresa was sweating all over, as if she had just woken up from a sinister nightmare.

Teresa had never reacted too violently despite connecting with her leader countless times in the past, and even letting him take control of her body.

Because from the various trainings in the temple, carrying out the orders of the leader was something that was engraved in Teresa's bones.

But today, Theresa actually felt a deep disgust for this method of communication that forced access without notifying her.

Theresa turned her head to look at Li who was still sleeping soundly. Seeing Li immersed in his sleep, Theresa felt strongly reluctant to leave.

After a moment of stunned silence, Theresa realized why she hated links.

"Am I really intoxicated by this man's embrace and afraid of losing him..."

The strange communication technique of the temple is said to come from the ancient magic of divine descent, which allows higher-level souls to descend upon oneself to assist in combat and punish heretics.

Now, the Temple has transformed it into a communication spell. The transformation has tried to avoid risks as much as possible and there will be no situation where the spell is directly possessed by another soul.

But this is not safe.

Repeated communications and advents will gradually affect the soul in the original body, and Theresa may very likely lose herself in the end.

With reluctance to leave Li, Theresa quietly put on her clothes and quietly opened the window.

Just as she was about to leap out and run all the way back to the Holy Mountain, Li's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Theresa, are you going back?"

Theresa was startled. She had just checked and found that Li was indeed sleeping. How did he notice her actions?

Theresa turned her head and saw that Li was still lying steadily on the bed without making any movement.

So, where does the sound come from!

"Don't look, I'm here."

Theresa looked in the direction where the sound came from with a confused look on her face. There was only a vague shadow there, like a ghost.

ghost!

"Heretics! How dare you imitate my husband? Take my Holy Light!"

"Oh my god!"
