The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Li's brief exchange with the head of the Weize family created a small commotion in the kitchen.

Li wanted to get an answer, but he didn't expect the head of the family to flee.

What exactly does the Book of the Dead mean that it scares those who know it so much?

Since the Book of the Dead is such a dangerous thing, why would the Weiser family regard it as a family heirloom, and why would they give it to Rose and take it to the North?

There are too many questions that cannot be answered, and Li's attention to the Book of the Dead has been raised to a higher level.

While thinking about the problem that could not be connected, Li Yi accidentally missed the time.

"It's broken! My roast chicken!"

When Li opened the oven, he saw that the surface of the roasted chicken was carbonized. It was in such a state that it was not suitable to be served to guests.

This will ruin your own reputation!

Li had no intention of making another one, and the people in the Weize family would not eat anything Li made.

Now Li just wants to find out the family's hidden secrets through other means.

"The kitchen is left to you."

Li said something to the other chefs and left through the back door of the kitchen.

Li wanted to find a quiet place to stay for a while and sort out the information in his mind.

Li, sitting on the roof enjoying the breeze, silently gazed at the lighted streets.

The capital is worthy of being the richest place in the kingdom. The streets here are decorated with expensive magic lights, and the magic tower in the distance casts a beam of light like a searchlight.

In the garden below, guests attending the banquet were socializing with each other with wine glasses in hand.

These nobles do not have the worries of common people. For them, how to consolidate the status of their family is their only problem.

The atmosphere at the banquet was harmonious and peaceful with people coming and going, but soon, this peace was no longer there.

"what!"

A scream broke the silence of the banquet. Li looked in the direction of the sound and saw a table surrounded by guests attending the banquet.

Several of the ladies screamed and retreated, pulling their male companions and desperately explaining something.

In the center of the crowd, a man was lying there.

Li looked carefully and found that the person lying on the ground was an acquaintance.

The Weize member who greeted Li at the door and wanted to drive Li away seemed to have a sudden illness.

"Someone's dead! Notify the guards!"

The riots did not subside, but became more and more out of control as time went by.

The guests screamed and moved away from the dead man, just as another Weiser fell to the ground.

The sudden change scared everyone. The two people who fell down were both from the Weize family, but no one could guarantee who would be the next victim.

"Who is it! Who dares to poison the food?"

Someone among the guests shouted that the poison was in the food.

This remark caused even greater confusion.

The people of the Weize family wanted to calm the situation and even arranged servants at the door to appease everyone.

But the nobles who were afraid of death swarmed out, shouting curses at the top of their voices.

"The Weize family is not a human being. They actually want to drag us down with them!"

"If I die here today, I swear someone will wipe out the entire Weiser family!"

Seeing that the riot was out of control, some magicians and knights directly attacked the gate.

The Weize family had no choice but to let the guests go.

However, the disaster that happened to the Weiser family did not end after the guests left.

Another person from the Weize family fell to the ground. After just two bounces, blood began to flow from all his orifices. His death was miserable.

Li was on the roof the whole time, silently watching the developments below.

Soon, someone came over, and the people from the Weize family glared at Li angrily, as if Li was the culprit of the massacre.

"Weize Li! How have we ever let you down? How dare you poison us!"

Facing the accusations from the Weize members, Li did not react at all.

If it was really Li who did it, Li would naturally admit it, but what happened today was not done by him, so he is really wronged.

Li glanced at the three dead Weizer members and immediately sensed a familiar aura from them.

At this moment, the head of the Weize family came over in a wheelchair. He raised his hand to suppress the angry tribesmen and called Li aside.

"Did you do what happened today?"

"Does the head of the family also think that I would kill my own people? My last name is also Weize."

Li had no good feelings towards the people of the Weize family, and he would not forgive their malice just because they had the same surname, Weize.

But in order to gain trust, Li still said something he didn't even believe.

But the head of the Weize family felt that Li's words were very sincere.

"Alas, the Weize family has finally declined. Someone is openly poisoning us. You'd better leave early to avoid getting into trouble."

"Poison? Master, others may not be able to see it, but you should understand that what killed the people in the clan was not poison, but a curse."

As soon as the word "curse" was uttered, the head of the Weize family opened his eyes wide, his fear emanated from inside out, his trembling body and the wheelchair also made a creaking sound.

"You said a curse! Do you have any evidence? If you don't have any evidence, don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing the head of the family like this, Li had a lot of question marks in his mind.

The Weiser family is the most powerful dark magic family in the kingdom, and the methods of using necromancy are also passed down among the family.

Would they not recognize the curse?

"I have seen a similar curse in the North. Someone cast it on the young master of the Freyr family."

"Frel...Curse...The North..."

The head of the family was probably old. He grasped a few key words and chewed on them for a long time, but still couldn't make sense of it.

Li only knew that the head of the family suddenly opened his eyes wide with anger, and then blood gushed out of his mouth and nose.

The curse on the head of the family erupted, and he collapsed in a wheelchair before he could even say a word.

"Li! How dare you kill the head of the family, you beast!"

When the other Weize members saw Li killing the head of the family, they all rushed forward in anger.

Li spread his hands and was about to explain that he had a way to save the head of the family when he sensed a dangerous aura approaching quickly.

This dangerous murderous intent was mixed with an extremely familiar aura to Li.

Li subconsciously stepped back and saw a sword light falling on the place where he had just stood.

Li wiped a non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, then looked at the person who suddenly jumped out and attacked him.

The man was wearing the robes of the secret order and a pure white mask on his face.

After such a disguise, Li should not be able to recognize the other person's identity.

But the woman had a tall figure and wore the earrings that she had given him as a gift. The most important thing was that the black sword in the woman's hand was clearly the Black Rose.

"Frel Lian!"

Li called out Lian's name directly, and Lian was shocked when she heard it.

"You can actually see through my identity! Weize Li, you really have some tricks up your sleeve!"

Lian carried out a mission for the secret society for the first time, but unexpectedly she was seen through by Li.

Lian was a little annoyed and attacked Li with a big sword.

Amidst the flashing of swords and sabers, Li was hit by Lian's sword. Li flew backwards and smashed directly into the wall behind him.

The wall collapsed and Lee fell into the Weiser kitchen, carrying broken bricks with him.

Lian held a big sword in his hand and stood at the gap in the wall, showing an attitude of one man blocking the way for ten thousand.

"Weize Li, you are being arrested for poisoning. Just surrender!"
