The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

A large word "Fortune" is posted on the entrance of the cafeteria. The carefully prepared pictures are very attractive and the key is that the word "Fortune" is also very festive.

If you look at the name of Wealth Transfer Company alone, it will feel quite ugly.

But the simplified wealth is very attractive.

The students of the Knight Academy had heard the rumor a long time ago, and when a new stall was opened in the cafeteria, they all rushed over at once.

Li used his cooking skills to conquer everyone's appetite and gained a foothold in the cafeteria.

But Li is facing a problem right now, which is the shortage of staff in the company.

Li's initial idea was to transfer a few people from the mutual aid association to support the situation.

But he had just seen the attitude of the Knight Academy, and ordinary cooking skills would definitely ruin their reputation.

Li decided to go back and train his younger brothers well before opening the stall here.

"Hey... Boss, we are all waiting to eat, what are you doing?"

Seeing Li closing the stall and preparing to leave the cafeteria, all the surrounding students gathered around him.

Li was blocked by a group of people and it was impossible for him to leave easily.

"We are not ready to open today. I will come back here after I go back to prepare."

Normally, after Li gives his reasons, he should be let go.

But what is the Knight Academy?

"You can't leave! We are not satisfied yet, you must provide us with meals!"

The student who tried to stop Li acted like an aristocrat, and his first words were orders that could not be refused.

Li quickly looked at the cafeteria manager, but the manager pretended not to see anything and turned his head away.

Li did not think that the manager was ungrateful. It must be these students in front of him who had identities that the manager could not object to.

Serving the nobles is the most troublesome thing.

Li didn't expect that he would be forced to stay in the cafeteria by the students.

If the other party is really hostile, Li can use magic to kill them, but facing a bunch of greedy rich kids, Li really has no good way.

"You can't do this. I'm only one person. No matter how powerful I am, I can't satisfy so many people."

"The stew you just made is great, we want that!"

Malatang became a stew among students, and Li had no way to refute it.

"But making that stew is also very laborious."

In order to let the students understand that stewing also requires cooking skills, Li deliberately demonstrated his knife skills.

Take out a lotus root covered with dirt and process it with only a heavy kitchen knife.

The kitchen knife in Li's hand flew up and down, and the lotus root skin and the dirt in the middle of the lotus root hole were all cleaned up by Li.

It's incredible that this can be achieved without magic, only with knife skills!

That’s not all. Li cut the lotus root slices into even thicknesses. He picked up two slices at random for comparison. The thickness was exactly the same and could not be distinguished with the naked eye.

"As you can see, it takes a lot of effort to process the ingredients this way, but it's the only way to ensure that the ingredients are heated evenly and taste good!"

When demonstrating his sword skills and explaining the lesson, Li dropped his honest disguise.

There was a shrewd and capable look in his eyes.

Li knew that if he wanted to conquer these students, not only must the food he made be delicious, but he also had to show off his presence.

Lian and Katon, who were watching from the side, keenly noticed the change in Li.

Different from the silly impression at first sight, Li at this moment is like a dormant lion, his confidence making him full of charm.

"I knew he was no ordinary man!"

Seeing the aura displayed by Li, Lian became excited.

The man I like is indeed extraordinary. He must be hiding other secrets!

Lian pulled her brother closer and began to observe Li's situation more closely.

"My fellow students, you are all future great knights. Now, you force me to make dishes. Isn't that a bad idea?"

“…We can help you prepare the ingredients, and you just need to cook!”

Li's knife skills demonstration did not make the students give up, but instead stimulated their competitive spirit.

Those who can come to the Knight Academy for further studies have some confidence in martial arts.

If a cook can cut the ingredients well, they can definitely do it too!

Seeing these students fall for it, Li's mouth curled up.

"Okay, since you're all interested, I'll hire an assistant right here and now!"

It was said to be a spur-of-the-moment idea, but Li bent down and took out a sign from the kitchen.

The words on the sign have been written: Caiyun Catering is recruiting temporary workers.

Cut the pile for three hundred silver coins.

Chef 500 silver coins...

"Anyone who is confident in their knife skills can sign up. Those who are selected only need to help for an hour every day at noon to earn some extra money~"

Lee didn't offer much to his assistants, and the Cavaliers were not interested in the meager salary.

But the knife skills test did attract a lot of people.

"We practice sword swinging every day, so cutting vegetables is definitely a piece of cake!"

After the stall recruitment of assistants became a hot topic, many students came to sign up.

The smile on Li's face became more and more sincere.

"With so many people signing up, we have to give two test questions. Everyone, please take a look!"

Li took out a cucumber from the kitchen, picked up a kitchen knife and started to cut it.

He pulled the cucumber, which was not yet cut, into long pieces, and his delicate knife skills attracted everyone's attention.

"This is another test question!"

After placing the shredded cucumber on the plate, Li took out a neatly arranged radish.

First cut notches on the sides of the radish, then slice it lengthwise.

Each slice of radish is the same size and looks delicate and beautiful like a flower.

"Anyone who can copy these two techniques can come here to be my assistant~"

Most people are not willing to work as an assistant to a canteen owner.

But the test questions given by Li were very novel and interesting.

Some curious people immediately borrowed knives and ingredients and started practicing under the watchful eyes of everyone.

I have to say, the sword players in the Knight Academy have really steady hands.

The first person who tried it successfully cut out patterns on the cucumber and radish.

The only difference is that the aesthetics is far worse and the slices are uneven.

The student's performance received round of applause, and Li gave him a thumbs up.

"Hey, it seems that it is not that simple!"

Once there was a success, there would be another. One student after another took turns to try. After the entire lunch break, no one could completely copy Li's technique.

Their hands were steady enough, but not precise enough, which made many students feel frustrated.

Seeing that no one could meet his requirements, the class bell rang again, and Li began to pack up and prepare to return to the magic academy.

"Wait, I haven't tried that yet."

Just when Li thought that no more students would obstruct him, a cold and royal sister's voice attracted Li's attention.

It’s Lian!

Lian walked out of the crowd, her eyes fixed on Li's face.

Li immediately glared back, hoping Lian would not disturb him from getting off work.

When a man and a woman look at each other, the latter usually avoids looking.

But Lian was not afraid of any looks, and her eyes when she looked at Li were full of desire to challenge.

There's also some teasing mixed in.
