The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Li left the Weize family's clubhouse under the cover of night and returned to his rented apartment. Xiaoli had not yet rested.

Xiaoli has a magic lamp at hand and is knitting a sweater for Li with the help of the light from the magic lamp.

Xiaoli flew her hands, weaved a line of patterns, and then yawned heavily.

"Xiao Li, go to sleep if you are sleepy."

"Master! You're back~"

Ever since Li rescued Xiaoli from her nightmare, Xiaoli has become more and more clingy.

Li didn't know whether this was good or bad, but at least, there was a cute girl willing to stick to him, and Li was very happy inside.

"Master! How did you do this? You are so embarrassed! Did the master bully you?"

I saw that Li's clothes were in a mess, with traces of swords and knives, and they were burned by fire.

Xiaoli, who was originally happy to welcome the young master back, suddenly became unhappy.

Xiaoli picked up the knitting needles and pretended to rush out to seek justice for the young master.

"Okay, Xiaoli, this wasn't caused by the people from the main family. It was a nasty guy who showed up and caused me a lot of trouble."

"Annoying guy? There are still people you can't handle, young master. Let me boil some water for you to take a bath first."

Xiaoli helped Li take off his tattered coat and turned to go to the bathroom.

Li returned home and was just about to relax when he saw that the window in the corner was open and cold wind was blowing in from outside.

The curtains by the window fluttered back and forth, as if someone was sneaking in from outside.

In fact, someone did break into Li's apartment uninvited.

"Weize Li, I thought you would flee from the crime, but I didn't expect you to just return to your doghouse."

When Li turned around, he saw a figure sitting on the sofa.

The other person was wearing a pair of very distinctive earrings, which emitted a faint red light in the darkness.

"Frel Lian, are you crazy? You chased me directly to my house. I will sue you for trespassing!"

"Ha~ You have the nerve to sue me? I saw with my own eyes that you killed everyone in the Weiser family. I'm going to take you back for trial, you devil in human skin!"

Lian seemed to be furious. She immediately blamed Li for his mistake and showed the black rose.

Li quickly raised his hand to stop him, saying he didn't want to cause any more trouble.

"Hey! Xiaoli has paid a lot for this family. If you dare to chop her with the sword, Xiaoli will eat you alive!"

"Ha~ You are a noble, but you are afraid of your own maid. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if you tell others about it?"

"…I will convey your words to Lord Himandar verbatim."

Li suddenly mentioned Himanda, causing Lian to shudder all over.

Thinking back to her own head maid who had the final say, Lian said she didn't want to waste time on the topic of maids.

Li Jianlian was still afraid of Ximanda, so he knew that he would be fine, and his mood relaxed.

"Lian, you sat on Xiaoli's sweater. She will definitely find fault with you when she comes back."

Lian saw that she was really sitting on the sweater and quickly moved to the side.

Lian, who had lost some momentum, didn't want to continue to embarrass herself, so she directly asked about the cause of the death in the Weize family.

"Li, tell me directly, did you kill so many people just for revenge?"

"Revenge? What kind of revenge do I want? The master's family has never done anything wrong to us except kicking my mother out."

Even if Li Zhen wanted to cause trouble for the master's family because of this matter, it would not be worth it to kill so many people.

"But they did die, and you said it wasn't you who did it?"

"Of course it wasn't me. I went to the master's house tonight to ask about the magical heritage of the Weizer family. Who knew that someone would curse so many people at the banquet and kill them all."

Li spread his hands, indicating that what happened before had nothing to do with him.

"But, I saw with my own eyes that the head of the Weize family vomited blood and died in front of you..."

"The head of the family was also cursed. I was just trying to relieve him, but a huge sword came slashing at me."

Li said that if Lian Wan had taken action a little longer, the head of the family might not have to die.

It's all Lian's fault, she can't turn the blame around.

"You said you wanted to lift the curse? You were the one who planted the curse..."

"Frel Lian, I think your brother should have told you that I was the one who cured his curse!"

The moment Li mentioned this, Lian was obviously stunned.

Then Lian suddenly realized that Li seemed to really be able to lift the curse.

"Wait a minute, you said the curse wasn't planted by you, then who else would kill the entire Weiser family..."

"Who cares? The Weize family has enough enemies, not to mention that the Weize family itself is hiding secrets. Now I suspect you. Maybe it was you who cast the curse, and now I am blaming you!"

Faced with Li's accusations, Lian quickly stood up and defended herself.

"How could it be me? I don't even know what a curse is..."

"Since you didn't know about the curse, why did you appear at the Weizer family at that time? Did the Weizer family invite you to the banquet? And you were wearing the clothes of the secret order!"

Li grabbed Lian's robe and pulled it hard twice.

Only then did Lian realize that she had been deceived from the very beginning.

“…Yes, it was Lei who asked me to go to Weize’s house to keep an eye on you and make sure you don’t do anything bad!”

"Lei? Who is Lei?"

The name Lei seemed a little familiar, but Li couldn't quite remember who this person was.

"Weize Lei, he is also a member of the Weize family, and he is also a member of the secret society. She was the one who arranged for me to say that you are dangerous!"

"A member of the Weize family? You believe everything he tells you? I really want to give you a handful of sticky rice and see if you have any brains!"

Li remembered a saying: warriors have no brains, their heads are full of muscles, especially female warriors!

Combining the information revealed by Lian, Li knew without hesitation that she was being plotted against.

Someone is using Lian's identity to deliberately cause trouble for Li.

Just when Li and Lian were angry with each other, Xiaoli prepared the bath water and ran back to find Li to take a bath.

As a result, Xiaoli saw Lian next to the sofa at a glance.

"Master, are there guests?"

"Well, an idiot came into the house and asked for a midnight snack. You should make her a bowl of noodles."

"Oh."

Xiaoli said "oh" and turned around to go back to the kitchen.

Lian, who had figured out the whole story, felt too embarrassed to face anyone.

"I won't eat the noodles. I'm going to go back and ask Lei what's going on!"

"You'd better sit down and tell me about Lei. I always feel that things are not that simple."

Li returned to Lord Weize's house to learn about the Book of the Dead.

Now the truth has not been revealed and all those who knew about it have been killed.

Li felt that someone was targeting him behind his back.

The secret society, the temple, and the kingdom, the mixed forces together are really a headache.

Lian finally sits down after seeing that Lee is not as evil as Lei described.

While smelling the fragrance coming from the kitchen, Lian told the story of being summoned by the king.

Lian's experience after returning to the royal capital was not complicated, but the forces she came into contact with were all those that she could not touch under normal circumstances.

Maybe, as that Lei said, there is a whole dark side to the kingdom.

Now, this dangerous dark side is slowly opening up in front of Li.
