The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 42 The Past is Gone

At the side door of the Magic Academy, two magicians drove away in a long and widened car.

With the support of the Elders Council behind the scenes, if you want to send someone out of the academy, just go through the main gate.

The magician driving the car had already taken off his secret order attire, and now the two of them looked like normal office workers.

"Tell me, is it really okay for us to keep doing things for the elders like this?"

"Why, do you regret it? Weren't you very happy when you became my disciple?"

The two magicians are the apprentices of the old wizard. They followed the old wizard when he was still a hero.

"Oh~ When I first became his disciple, the master was radiating holy light, not like now..."

After exchanging a few words, the two mages fell silent.

They began to miss the old times.

Although they were magic apprentices at the time, they still had to follow their teacher on foot, carrying heavy packages.

But at that time, their smiles were innocent and the teachers' teachings to them were full of sincerity.

However, since some time ago, the teacher began to participate in high-class cocktail parties and began to meet with dignitaries.

The two apprentices also gave up their apprentice titles and became official mages.

They started to handle things for other people, some of which were legitimate, and some of which were just…

In addition to their fellow disciples, the teacher also taught many students.

But in the end, only the two of them remained with the teacher.

They looked at each other as if in a mirror.

The light that once shone in my eyes has disappeared without a trace.

Now all that's left is confusion.

"It's almost time."

The car stopped under the shade of a tree. The two men got out and went to the back compartment to check.

The teacher used magic to freeze the poisonous snake so that it could be easily transported.

But magic is not omnipotent. After traveling such a long distance, a stain of water had melted under the coffin.

The two did not open the lid to check, but cast ice magic directly on the coffin.

Only when the entire coffin was covered with a thick layer of frost did the two of them return to the car with peace of mind.

"They asked us to travel long distances in the hottest weather, but they didn't even offer us more subsidies."

"This is pretty good, the things in the back are icy cold, and nothing happened along the way~"

The task of transferring the venomous snakes was an easy one for the two mages, and they really had nothing to complain about.

After a short break, the car continued to start.

Following the road ahead, the car gradually merged into the traffic flow.

Their destination was the kingdom's capital.

However, the two people who were leaving did not know that a small black snake poked its head out of the grass where they stopped.

The core of the black snake is also black, and its rotating eyes are permeated with human wisdom.

The black snake stayed where it was and thought for a while. Finally, the black snake also wandered towards the direction of the royal capital.

However, the leaving black snake did not know that not far from the bushes where he was hiding, a mechanical beetle was lying on a dry branch.

After the beetle confirmed that there was no movement around it, the shell on its back opened, revealing a pair of sturdy steel wings.

The beetle fluttered into flight, faster than a bird, and quickly flew away from its original place.

In the magic academy, Amber and Li, who have been using beetles for reconnaissance, have obtained a lot of unexpected information.

"Those people actually dared to transport the necromancer to the capital. Aren't they afraid of being discovered by the king?"

Amber couldn't understand why the king allowed such a thing to happen.

Even if the king is an incompetent ruler, he should understand that his territory should not be violated.

Whenever the affairs of the necromancer are exposed, the people of the capital will be in a panic, which will definitely be detrimental to the king's rule.

"Aunt Amber, things may not be as complicated as you think."

"What do you think? Tell me now, don't keep me in suspense!"

Amber was so anxious that bubbles appeared on the corners of her mouth, but Li remained calm and unhurried.

"Aunt Amber, how old is the king now?"

"Age? The king ascended the throne thirty years ago, when he was still a young man..."

A young man will naturally become a middle-aged or elderly person after spending thirty years.

Managing a kingdom is not an easy job. The energy and effort required is definitely beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

So, would the king, who is already middle-aged and elderly, have overdrawn his body prematurely and is on the verge of death?

Amber felt creepy when she thought about this.

If even the king begins to seek to prolong his life through evil means, is there any need to save this kingdom!

Amber didn't know, Amber was very confused.

Amber was under so much pressure that the blood blisters at the corners of her mouth burst, but she didn't react at all.

Li took out two tissues from the table and put them directly into Amber's face.

She is a pretty aunt, but it is not good for her to look sad all the time.

"Aunt Amber, what do you want to do now?"

Amber was speechless and could only stare at Li.

She couldn't understand why Li could be so calm. Could it be that bad guys really have no conscience?

"Tsk, there are only two choices before you now, stick to your original idea, or give up your persistence, choose one~"

Li knew that Amber was a person with faith in her heart, otherwise she would not have been hit so hard by this damn world.

But precisely because she has faith, she should analyze her own heart and determine the direction of the future at this moment.

If you hesitate, you will lose everything.

You always have to make a choice: to fight or to go with the flow.

Amber hesitated for a long time but couldn't make a decision. Her indecisive stubbornness prevailed again.

“…Lee, if it were you, what would you do?”

"Are you sure you want me to give you an answer?"

"Please help Auntie, I am really confused..."

"Okay then, just watch from the side."

After saying that, Li walked out of the room, leaving Amber with a handsome back.

"Wait a minute, you're just leaving like that? What are you going to do?!"

Regardless of what others think, Li had already thought about the direction of his life from the very beginning.

He has lived two lives already, he will not fall into emotional confusion.

Li, who controls the power of the undead, is neither black nor white, he just wants to go his own way.

Li walked silently along the stone path in the college.

Passing through the student dormitory, the faculty dormitory, and two ancient buildings, Li finally stopped in front of the Presbyterian Church.

The ancient building, built purely of stone, has a style that is incompatible with the magic academy.

For ordinary students, this place can be called a forbidden area.

Apart from the stone pavement that people can still walk on, the surrounding area is all wasteland with waist-high weeds.

Those grandparents from the Presbyterian Church actually stay in a place like this. They are not good people no matter how you look at them.

"plum…"

Amber was chasing after Li at all costs. After arriving here, Amber didn't dare to speak loudly.

Amber looked at Li with anxiety in her eyes. She didn't know what Li was doing here or what his purpose was.

If you have nothing to do, leave now!

Li felt Amber's complicated gaze, but he was not in a hurry.

The sun had just risen and Li had a whole day to waste.

Thinking of this, Li stomped his feet on the spot, and a throne made of bones unfolded in front of the ruins.

Li sat here like an undead king, swaggering as if he was meeting his undead subjects.
