The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Sitting in a wheelchair in a daze, Cotton looked extremely lonely. Even with the loyal maid, Himanda, taking care of him, Li still felt the loneliness in Cotton.

Being placed in such a remote place by his family and suffering from unknown harm, in the end, not many people cared about Carton's life or death.

In the dream world, Carton's sister has been running around for Carton's illness, but the reality is that Lian is not with Carton at all.

Instead, it was the head maid who betrayed her family in the dream world who protected her young master wholeheartedly.

If the twenty years in the dream world were really a magnification of Li's expectations, then his good impression of Lian might just be the beauty of his childhood.

In real aristocratic families, sisters and brothers compete with each other for property, so it would be strange if they had a good relationship.

"Lilith, come and help take a look."

Lilith nodded and came to Carton to check the situation.

"Brother Li, are you familiar with this little Lord Carton?"

Cotton was just a sixteen-year-old boy, and he didn't even have a beard on his chin. When Lilith saw Cotton's miserable appearance, she felt pity for him.

"I only saw him wrapped in swaddling clothes when he was very young."

"That's it."

The two did not communicate anymore. Ximanda stood aside and watched Li and Lilith's actions carefully.

If the two of them made any bad moves, Ximanda's dagger would definitely pierce their throats.

A moment later, Lilith finished the preliminary inspection, but reported bad news to Himanda.

"Your Master Carton has three foreign objects in his head, and there are a lot of bruises around them. It's not easy to deal with."

"Three, three pieces?"

"Well, one is a piece of wood, and the other two are something unknown, but they feel like metal."

Himanda, who had been able to remain calm, could no longer suppress his anger after hearing this.

It's okay to have wood fragments, but where did the metal come from?

Even if the ogre was using a hammer, it would be impossible for him to hammer two pieces of iron into his young master's head. It was obvious that someone had tampered with it.

"The wood chip is in the back of the head, which is a bit dangerous and difficult to deal with. The two iron chips are not difficult to deal with because they are both on the top of the head."

Lilith held Carton's head with one hand and pointed out the problem with the other.

This world has not developed sophisticated surgery, but it is well aware of the consequences of head injuries.

The young master may have to live like this for the rest of his life. The cold Himanda also revealed her vulnerable side. A tear dripped from the corner of her eye and she quickly turned around to wipe it away.

"Lilith, can you take the foreign object out?"

Lilith had a serious look on her face, and judging from her appearance, it was likely that she wouldn't be able to handle it.

"Well... I'm 90% sure, but this operation is very delicate, and I have to control his blood flow all the time, which is quite exhausting for me."

"Ninety percent? Why are you wasting time talking? Treat her immediately! I will prepare a hundred gold coins for Miss Lilith as a reward!"

Lilith nodded in satisfaction and stuck out her tongue at Li.

This girl deliberately created a tense atmosphere so that she could extort a large sum of money.

Li gave a thumbs up and praised Lilith for a good job. For a family like the Freyr family that owns a lot of dogs, no amount of money is too much.

"Ahem~ Next is the treatment plan I made. First, shave his hair clean, then use magic to treat the three lesions respectively. After ensuring that the contaminated blood will not cause secondary damage, quickly remove the foreign matter in the brain."

A simple and crude treatment plan, but also very effective.

As long as Lilith can control Cotton's blood vessels, the safety of the operation can be guaranteed.

"Thank you for your support, Princess Lilith. The Freyr family will always remember this kindness!"

The treatment has not yet begun, but Shimanda has already accepted Lilith's favor. Seeing this, Li was so happy in his heart that the favor of the Freyr family will become an important driving force for the rise of Gravel Hills.

This trip was not in vain~

Ximanda was looking forward to the young master's recovery. Without Lilith's instructions, Ximanda drew out his dagger and shaved Kadon's head bald.

A circle of redness and swelling can be seen at the back of Carton's head, where the wood fragments had penetrated.

But there was no trace of the two iron plates on his head. The person who secretly attacked Cardon handled it very skillfully.

Lilith stood behind Carton and fiddled with Carton's bald head with her hands. Feeling it was a bit greasy, she wiped it again with a handkerchief.

Li looked at Lilith with her bald head and thought the scene was full of humor. He had to think of many sad things to ensure that he would not laugh out loud.

Then, Li saw Lilith open her mouth and take a bite.

Cotton's head is not small, and Lilith can only open her mouth as wide as possible. The animal world inexplicably pops up in Li's mind, and the funny scene of a python swallowing ostrich eggs.

Lilith is not going to swallow Carton...

Li's worries did not come true. Lilith simply stabbed her teeth into Cotton's scalp and sucked out the dirty blood in his head.

Li noticed that Shimanda raised the dagger in his hand several times. Lilith's treatment method was indeed evil, and it was not surprising that Shimanda was filled with murderous intent.

"Maid-sama, your knife is very steady. Cut here."

Lilith's teeth were still stuck in Carton's skull, and she was mumbling something inaudible.

Ximanda understood Lilith's intention and cut open the back of Cotton's head with one knife.

The head of a wooden thorn could be seen at the cut wound. Lilith suppressed the blood around it to make room for the wooden thorn to move.

It didn't take much effort. Ximanda just used the tip of his sword to lightly poke the wooden thorn that had pierced the back of Caton's head fall out.

This wooden thorn should be a fragment of the kobold's weapon, half the size of a toothpick, and it pressed on Cotton's brain nerves.

After the wooden thorn was taken out, Carton shook violently and raised one arm.

The treatment was effective and Himanda was overjoyed.

"Master Carton, don't move yet, the treatment is still going on!"

After hearing Ximanda's instructions, Katon immediately stopped his actions and remained motionless.

The patient's cooperation made it very convenient for Lilith. Lilith pointed to two positions on the top of Cotton's head and asked Himanda to repeat the previous process.

Li Jian saw that the two of them were working together well, and Kadon's condition was also improving, so he felt much better.

However, the first thorn was removed too smoothly, and Li believed that there would be problems in the subsequent operations.

Li became alert and kept an eye on the situation at all times. As long as the situation changed, it would be time for Li to take action.

Li didn't want to expose his power as a necromancer in front of Ximanda, but Katon's life was important and it was worth Li taking some risks.

"continue."

Shimanda nodded, and Lilith purred twice on top of Carton's head.

Cotton's head was covered with Lilith's saliva, which was now flowing down Cotton's face. Cotton looked extremely miserable.
