The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

At the top of the holy mountain, in a sacred area where only the most devout clergy are allowed to move, Teresa stood on a high place overlooking the city below the mountain.

Looking down at the earth from above, the buildings in the city are like building blocks built by children, and the people living in the royal capital are like ants.

Those people, whether noble or humble, spend every minute of their lives according to their own will, but they never understand what the world is really like.

Theresa didn't understand either, she only knew that the world was about to be destroyed.

"Theresa, come in quickly. It's windy outside. Don't let it get you hurt!"

The leader's call from behind, like a mother's admonition, made Theresa feel irritated and helpless.

She heard from the other person about the destruction of the world. Teresa would rather not have heard these terrible things than be separated from him forever just after falling in love with him.

"Saint, is everything you told me true?"

"Theresa, you are the best apostle of this class. You can even take over the Kingdom of God on earth in my place in the future, so there is no need for me to lie to you."

Theresa returned to the ancient temple. This hall, which was always filled with rich holy light, was the goddess's kingdom on earth.

Theresa's leader was the apostle who once believed in the Goddess the most.

"Saint, please tell me that this world is constantly circulating within a narrow range. Only a certain group of people can perceive this truth. Does this include Li?"

"Oh my dear Theresa, Li is a special being. This reincarnation is mainly for him. He can indeed realize the truth of the world, but he will not reincarnate with us."

Because Li is an alien soul, just a passer-by wandering in this world.

In order to keep Theresa on the holy mountain, the saint in the light curtain told Theresa many secrets, including the secret of letting Theresa take the initiative to seduce Li.

"Theresa, the little life in your belly should inherit the wisdom and strength of the outsider. You must cultivate it carefully. Maybe you can break this closed world and give us a chance to escape from here! And Li, he won't be with you for long. Maybe tomorrow, maybe in a few days, he will leave this world."

Theresa listened to the saint explain to her things like dreams, bubbles, and barriers.

Theresa didn't understand a lot of the content, but there was one thing she understood: Li would soon be parting with her.

Theresa would return to the church and stop contacting Lee in order to avoid the sadness of separation.

However, the Saint specially sent an invitation letter to Li, asking him to come to the Holy Mountain for a chat regardless of his own wishes.

Theresa was distressed and she didn't know what to do.

Her hand subconsciously rested on her lower abdomen. The Saint said there was a vibrant life inside, but Theresa could not feel it at all.

Theresa has learned some medical knowledge and it would take at least two months to determine whether she is pregnant.

Maybe, she was not pregnant at all. If that was true, she didn't know if the Saint would go crazy.

Theresa thought the Saint had gone mad, just like the king of the other mountain.

They have been trapped in this world for so long that their thinking has become abnormal.

"Saint, why did you choose me to contact Li? Why not someone else?"

"Theresa, I've already said that you are the best apostle of this session."

"If it's just about getting Li's information, anyone else could do it, why me?"

Theresa never thought about herself before. She was willing to obey the command of the Saint and give everything for the church.

But after meeting Lee, Theresa learned that people should think for themselves, and that love is actually a heavy pressure.

Theresa felt that she was not worthy of Li's cherishment, but Li was willing to communicate with her and tell her some interesting stories, which brought them closer to each other.

Theresa only approached Lee because of the mission, but Lee really took care of Theresa as if she were a family member. Theresa enjoyed every moment with Lee, but also felt suffocated by it.

"If it wasn't me from the beginning, I wouldn't have to feel guilty, confused, or upset!"

For the first time, Theresa roared at the Saint. She had accumulated too much pressure, and this pressure made her ignore the relationship between superiors and subordinates.

The phantom living in the holy light flickered suddenly.

The saint didn't expect that Teresa had so much negative emotions accumulated in her heart.

"It turns out that pregnant women really have a lot of crazy thoughts and are nervous. Theresa, you have to learn to relax."

"Relax you watermelon!"

Theresa threw the half-eaten cucumber hard into the saint's face.

The holy light flickered, and the cucumber evaporated directly, as if it had never existed in the first place.

"I'm sorry Saint, I'm confused right now."

The saint did not blame Teresa. After all, many things had been unexpected since the events began.

"It's okay Theresa. I looked through the recently published maternal and child health handbook, and it said that appropriate entertainment can help relieve your mood."

"Entertainment..."

Once upon a time, the word "entertainment" was equivalent to a taboo in the church. In order to prevent the monks from being disturbed by worldly things, Teresa and her companions would be scolded by the disciplinary nuns if they looked up to count the stars.

As a result, now, Lord Saint took the initiative to talk to Theresa about entertainment.

The Saint used holy light to condense a chessboard, and then casually pinched out a bunch of lifelike chess pieces.

"Theresa, I let you win last time, but I let you win on purpose. Let's fight it out this time!"

The Saint used a power that Theresa could not understand, picked up the dice made of holy light, and threw it casually onto the chessboard.

"One step forward, how can it be just one step!"

Theresa was speechless. How could the Saint be so excited about playing a flying chess? If she had known this, she would not have taken out the flying chess.

The casual game that Li taught Teresa became addicted to immediately after the Saint came into contact with it.

Theresa now understood a little bit that the reason why the temple banned entertainment activities was largely due to the Saint in front of her.

It must be that the ancestors of the temple formulated harsh dogmas in order to prevent the Saint from indulging in entertainment and neglecting important matters, thus harming generations of monks.

"Don't just stand there, Theresa. It's your turn now. If you can beat me this time, I will use my power to prepare a big surprise for you!"

“…Saint, please put away your surprises and don’t prepare anything!”

The threatened Theresa picked up the chess piece helplessly. Originally, she was the one who needed to be taken care of, but Theresa felt like she was coaxing the Saint.

The saint who has lived for who knows how many years doesn't look like an elder at all, but more like a trouble-making younger sister.

"Hey, Saint, how about we play checkers? It has some technical skills."

"Checkers, that sounds amazing, teach me now!"
