The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

The Paladin, whose faith had collapsed, began to work in the fields himself.

After working every day, I would go to the tavern with the farmers, eat fried beans and drink sour fruit wine. Life was so enjoyable.

Many people heard about the collapse of the Paladin's faith and came to watch the fun, and then were thrown out of the tavern one by one by Saoirse.

"I heard that you threw Pastor Martin and the others out. You are too aggressive. They are your sister's benefactors!"

Li pulled over a stool and sat down, ordered a glass of Fiery Rose, and drank with Saoirse.

"That's what they deserve. They actually dared to ask me what it feels like to have my faith shattered. Why don't they try it themselves?"

"Oh, that's what you deserve."

After two glasses of wine, Saoirse started talking.

She had been holding back questions for a long time, but only dared to ask Li today.

"That day, I asked your little maid to stab you. Will you blame me?"

"You mean Xiaoli? That's her own decision. What does it have to do with you?"

"How can it have nothing to do with me? If I hadn't used the secret agent, Xiaoli wouldn't have to leave you... Wait, you already knew that Xiaoli was a killer, and all of this was done on purpose!"

Saoirse always felt guilty about using a killer, so she didn't think about it too deeply.

Now that I think about it, I noticed that Li's reaction was not right.

Xiaoli rebelled and killed her master, then fled after completing her mission. However, Li was not in a hurry at all and had no intention of condemning Xiaoli.

This means that from the beginning to the end, the situation was under Li's control!

"Heh~ Xiaoli grew up with me. Even though she suffered in that training camp for a few years, she was already reformed after coming to my house. Training young children to be killers may seem powerful, but the longer you ask them to lie dormant, the weaker the killer's will will be."

Li felt that no matter whether it was the Kingdom or the Temple that was in charge of the assassination, the person in charge was definitely not very smart.

Because according to Li's speculation, more than half of the killers scattered among the families had probably already rebelled.

"You mean, that Xiao Li deliberately tried to kill you, and then... then she went back to the capital, and you planned to attack those people in the capital!"

Li nodded, acknowledging Saoirse's guess.

On the other hand, Saoirse looked incredulous.

"That's the capital. The kingdom's most elite forces are all there, as well as the Holy Temple. How dare you? Xiaoli, running over there is like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth!"

"That's not something you should worry about anymore."

Saoirse didn't know where Lee got the confidence to confront the kingdom's strongest force head-on.

But Saoirse knew that the situation would become more turbulent, which would not be a good thing for anyone.

When conflicts arise in the kingdom, the people who suffer the most are the common people in the kingdom.

Saoirse took out a pen and paper and wrote down her thoughts on today's work while eating snacks.

These days, Saoirse has written a thick book on everything from how to compost to how to organize your work.

Lee knew that Saoirse was summarizing the system for the development of Windmill Bay, but he did not stop her.

Because Li needs more people to spread good things, no matter what Saoirse thinks, Li will be the one who benefits in the end.

Now, Li just hopes that Xiaoli can have a smooth journey.

...

The town closest to the royal capital, it has become a gathering place for caravans due to its convenient transportation.

Merchants would bring in goods from surrounding areas, and then sell the goods refined by the capital to various places.

Many people who are planning to travel long distances within the kingdom will also make basic preparations here.

The great magician, wearing the Four Symbols robe of the Magic Academy, walked among the busy merchants and caravans.

The great magician used his cane to push up the wide-brimmed magic hat that covered his eyes, revealing a delicate feminine face.

The woman did not wear any thick makeup, and her face was completely bare. There was a faint magical glow flowing in her eyes, making people dare not look at her.

The passers-by around took a look at the beautiful female magician, and then quickly looked away.

It is not polite to look into the eyes of a noble magician.

The key point is that the magicians wearing the Four Symbols robes are all high-level talents in the kingdom.

The kingdom once enacted laws.

Regardless of the reason, high-level magicians are not guilty of killing civilians.

All passers-by walked around the magician, and even the carriage drove into the mud puddle on the side of the road to avoid her.

The magician herself didn't think there was anything wrong, she was used to it.

Until a young girl in a special maid uniform bumped into the magician.

"Watch the road, impudent squire!"

The magician who was bumped looked at the maid in front of him with dissatisfaction.

She searched the maid's body for the family crest, trying to find her master.

However, the maid had no markings on her body that indicated her identity, and the clothes she wore were also quite different from the popular clothing styles in the royal capital.

"Where are you from as a maid? Who is your master?"

"I'm sorry, Master Magician, I came from the North and accepted the order from my young master to come to the capital to do some things."

The maid took off the woolen knitted hat on her head and saluted respectfully to the magician.

The magician was surprised by the Northland mentioned by the maid, but he was more curious about her coat.

In the collision just now, the magician felt the lightness and softness of the other party's clothes.

The maid's long coat seemed to be filled with air, giving off a strange touch.

"Master? What's your master's name?"

"Weize, my master is a pioneer noble from the North."

Weezer!

The magician never expected to hear his friend's last name from a maid today.

In the pocket of the wizard's robe, there is a letter with the surname Weiser.

The magician suppressed his dissatisfaction with the maid and asked his questions with curiosity.

"Is the coat you are wearing a specialty of the North?"

"This down jacket? It is indeed a specialty of the North. My young master added bird feathers to the fabric to create warm clothing that everyone can afford!"

When the maid talked about her young master, the confidence in her words was overwhelming.

The magician could feel how important the young master was in the maid's heart.

"Bird feathers?"

"Yes, sir. I have a pair of unused wool scarves here. Consider it my apology for accidentally bumping into you. This is also a specialty of the North~"

While the magician was still in a daze, the maid took out a folded scarf from the backpack she was carrying.

The touch was indeed some kind of woolen textile, but wool should be very rough, but the scarf in the magician's hand was delicate and warm.

The magician wanted to ask more about the North, but the maid just waved and ran away.

Judging from the direction the maid left, she did not go to the royal city, but headed towards the military area outside the city.

How can a maid enter a military area?

The magician had more questions in her mind. She wrapped the new scarf around her neck, feeling the warmth, and took out the letter from her friend from her arms.

"Weiser Rose... invite me to go to the North to witness the Kingdom of Neverwinter?"
