The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer
Chapter 44: The Hero's Faith
The weather was hot, and Li also did some strenuous exercise.
Li picked up the cold drink beside him and poured it down his throat, and his forehead hurt from the cold.
"Hi~"
Amber, who was standing by in shock the whole time, looked at Li with her big eyes from time to time, and then looked at the old wizard who was lying on the ground.
Amber used to think that Li was a good boy, but she didn't expect that he had such a violent side.
Exhausted, Li sat back on the bone throne and stared at the slowly moving old wizard with lazy and vicious eyes.
"You wanted to read the Book of the Dead. Do you understand now?"
God knows how Li said such cold words. It was like pouring a basin of cold water on Amber, scaring her so much that she jumped away from Li.
At this moment, Li no longer had time to deal with Amber. He just wanted to kill the old wizard in front of him as quickly as possible.
"Young man, you don't have martial ethics!"
The old wizard's face was as swollen as a pig's head, and his originally wrinkled skin was stretched and shiny.
An unclear voice came out of the old wizard's mouth, making people want to be angry and laugh at the same time.
"I'm not a martial artist, so why should I talk about martial ethics?"
Lee's shameless retort froze the summer wind.
The old wizard got up from the ground and took out another tube of healing potion and drank it himself.
The swollen face collapsed visibly, and the old wizard returned to his original appearance.
"Young man, you are so arrogant, be careful not to fall."
"Heh~ If you're in the mood to worry about others, you should worry more about yourself."
Long before coming here, Li felt the strong aura of death.
Now that he was in close contact with the old wizard, the aura of death was like a thick fog.
In Li's view, the old wizard is no longer a human being. He is just a corpse ghost who relies on undead witchcraft!
"A dead hero is still alive in this world relying on his obsession. This is an insult to your former heroic name!"
Li snapped his fingers, and several bone spears shot out from the throne under his feet, piercing the old wizard's body.
The old wizard looked at his body in surprise. He didn't expect Li to attack him as soon as they disagreed.
The bone spear retracted, leaving seven or eight holes on the old wizard's body.
A stream of black mucus with a strong stench was constantly gushing out from the wound.
Amber was so scared that she flew into the air, and all kinds of elemental magic were cast on herself.
It’s not that Amber is timid, but Amber had experienced something like this herself not long ago.
At this moment, the evil aura surging from the old wizard was even more terrifying than the flesh and blood sacrifice in which Amber personally participated.
The elder of the magic academy actually possesses the power of darkness. If this were to get out, it would definitely cause turmoil in the kingdom!
"Hey, young man, why do you insist on exposing me?"
The old wizard was surprisingly calm at this moment. He had long expected that his condition would be exposed one day.
But he didn't expect that things would go wrong in the hands of Amber and a young man.
"You stink all over. The dead should just lie down in the cemetery!"
Li didn't hate the smell of blood or corruption, but people like the old wizard who caused trouble everywhere were disgusting.
Li's outspoken disdain made the old wizard angry. What he hated most was the self-righteousness of young people!
"Young man from the Weize family, don't think that you can become the king of the undead just because you have the Book of the Dead. You are too young and too immature!"
After saying this, the old wizard's body instantly regained its youth.
The hero who once fought against the dragon alone is back; the great magician who guarded the border and made the enemy dare not advance a single step is back!
His handsome appearance and strong physique made Li feel ashamed.
When the old wizard was young, he was not only the patron saint of the kingdom, but also the dream lover of thousands of women!
Before Li could recover from his surprise, the wand touched Li's cheek.
The next moment, a violent explosion occurred at the tip of the wand, and Li was blown away like a rag doll.
Watching Li spinning and falling into the grass, Amber swallowed subconsciously.
The scene before her reminded her of the legend.
Exploding Knight on Horseback!
A melee mage who is crazier than a warrior, a magic master who casts magic right in the face of the enemy, and a corpse crusher who leaves no one intact after dying at his hands!
To be an opponent of such a person...
Amber felt that she must have eaten psychedelic mushrooms, which was why she listened to Li's nonsense and stayed at the door to block people!
Amber wanted to run, but before she could open the portal, she was stared at by a sharp gaze.
Amber realized that if she made any other moves, she would also be incomplete.
"Amber, why do you insist on such unrealistic ideas? Now, you have found the truth. I did everything. I colluded with the necromancer to commit murder, but I had no choice!"
How ironic it is that a former hero now shouts out words he has no other choice.
"I also want to be a good person and use my power to maintain the peace of the kingdom, but time will not give me the opportunity. The kingdom has not been able to train a suitable successor. The young people are not enterprising, and the enemies around the kingdom are ready to make a move. I am indeed dead a long time ago, but I cannot fall down!"
The old wizard who firmly believes in the faith in his heart has a faint glow shining on his body.
That was the persistence in his heart that turned into faith, wanting to maintain his body.
However, in the face of the surging filth, the faint fireflies seem so ridiculous.
The old wizard's body was soon twisted by evil forces, his limbs mutated, and his body became alienated.
Amber watched as the old wizard transformed from human form into a twisted monster.
The monster's mouth is on his shoulder. He is unaware of the changes in himself and still speaks of his persistence and ideals.
"I just want to maintain peace in the kingdom until the next successor appears. For this, I am willing to make sacrifices and use the lives of my family and students to maintain the short-lived glory!"
Amber covered her mouth tremblingly. What did she hear?
The old wizard actually sacrificed his closest people just to prolong his life!
At this moment, there are still faint spots of light flowing on the monster, which shows that he really believes that what he is doing is correct.
Only then did Amber realize that the evil that could be seen at a glance was not the real evil.
Those who think they are doing the right thing are more likely to make irreparable mistakes!
"How many people have you killed in order to prolong your life?"
Amber wants to know how many mistakes the former heroes have made for their ideals.
"Me, killing people? I said, those were necessary sacrifices. I once protected them, and now, I need them to sacrifice everything to help me!"
An even stronger light shines on the monster's body, which is simply a great irony!
