The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Li pushed the dining cart into the gorgeously decorated box. Compared to the round tables on Earth, people here are more accustomed to using square tables.

The host and guests sit at the two ends of the square table, and the long distance in the middle is reserved for food.

The canteen manager stood respectfully aside, intending to act as a waiter for the banquet.

After a while, Li will gradually serve the dishes, and then the canteen manager will put them on plates and pass them to the guests.

Before starting to demonstrate his cooking skills, Li looked around and measured everyone's faces.

The principal had a perfunctory smile on his face, and the priest was still staring at Lian Meng with lustful eyes.

Lian and Carton were on pins and needles, and secretly looked at Li for help.

Li ignored the brother and sister. Like a real chef, he lifted the dust cover on the dining car.

A pile of fresh seafood, still alive and kicking, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

The fresh shrimp suddenly exerted force and flew out of the shallow basin of water, but was ruthlessly pressed back into the water by Li.

"My Lords, today is a good time. In this hot season, a plate of cold seafood sashimi will surely make you feel the coolness~"

Seafood sashimi is very popular on the south coast.

People who are used to eating delicious food can easily accept this way of eating.

But killing in front of the clergy is against the teachings of the goddess.

"Mr. Chef, I have devoted my life to serving the Holy Light. Is it not good for you to handle fish and shrimp in front of me?"

The priest looked down on Li from the beginning because he was thin and had thick hair.

The key point is that Lian kept glancing at Li, which caused the priest's dissatisfaction.

"Father, the goddess taught us not to kill indiscriminately and not to take other people's lives for our own selfish desires. I am also a shallow believer of the goddess. In order not to violate the teachings, I learned exquisite skills from my master, just to prevent the lives that passed through my hands from suffering too much pain."

“Is there a technique to prevent ingredients from feeling pain? I really want to experience it!”

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Li was arguing with the priest, Lilith opened the red wine and walked over to pour the wine for everyone.

Just as he passed by the priest, the priest, who had originally only paid attention to Lian and Li, suddenly turned around and looked at Lilith.

The priest's eyes were very strange, and he looked at Lilith as if she were a priceless treasure.

This look scared Lilith and she almost spilled the red wine on the priest.

"I'm sorry, sir. I was careless..."

"It doesn't matter. The goddess will pity the believers' unintentional mistakes~"

The priest wiped the red wine spilled on the table with a napkin, and considerately forgave Lilith's mistake.

His gentle attitude was in stark contrast to before, causing everyone present to feel uncomfortable.

Everyone could see that this priest who loved beautiful women had set his eyes on the beautiful Lilith.

Only Li keenly noticed that the priest's look at Lilith was not simply lustful.

If I want to describe it more accurately, it should be the look of a demon seeing his prey, or the look of a little demon seeing Tang Monk.

"Lilith, help me open the box."

Li, who had already washed his hands, took the opportunity to call Lilith back to his side.

Lilith was afraid that the priest would continue to stare at her, so she ran back and opened the box.

An ordinary metal box, but it emits cold mist when opened.

When the mist dissipated a little, everyone could see clearly that there was a set of knives made of ice in the box.

Ice knife, do you really need to use ice to cut food?

This idea popped up in everyone's mind.

Even Lian and Katon were attracted by Li's actions.

"Ice blades can reduce the loss of freshness of food, but ice is not as sharp as iron. If you want to cut food into the desired shape, you need superb skills to support it!"

Li did the explanation himself. After a brief introduction, his eyes widened and he quickly grabbed an ice skate.

The knife is slender and very suitable for picking out bones. Li uses his other hand to grab the most lively prawns and quickly processes them on the chopping board.

The ice blades flashed continuously, and Li's hands danced out a trail of afterimages.

When Li stopped, the shrimps on the chopping board shed their skin automatically, revealing the tender shrimp meat.

The manager passed the first portion of shrimp to the priest. Looking closely at the shrimp on the plate, he found that even though its head and shell were gone, the shrimp was still bouncy.

After pouring the prepared sauce on the shrimp, the stimulated shrimp bounced violently and almost flew into the priest's face.

The priest was frightened, but he was not angry. Instead, he looked at Li with admiration.

The shrimps are peeled but still alive, thanks to the exquisite knife skills and superb processing techniques.

The priest pierced the bouncy shrimp meat with a fork, as if the words he had said before about avoiding killing did not come from his mouth.

Under the gaze of everyone, the priest opened his mouth wide and swallowed the shrimp.

The priest's eyes suddenly widened, his expression was very excited, and then his throat moved and he swallowed the food in his mouth.

The priest slowly wiped the sauce from the corner of his mouth, took a sip of wine, and slowly savored the feeling just now.

“…I never expected that I could experience the richness of life through this dish!”

The priest knew his own situation. He had done many bad things in secret and had long lost his respect for life.

The priest would not even blink an eye when it came to killing animals or even humans.

But the fresh shrimp he had just eaten made the priest feel guilty.

A life is destroyed because of one's own appetite. Such a sin will be rejected by the Holy Light and the Goddess will be angry.

The priest silently felt the struggle of his conscience, and it took him a long time to recover from the complex emotions.

Originally, the priest didn’t care much about Li, but now, he is going to take this chef seriously!

“The next dish is…”

“Live fish sashimi.”

Everyone present was shocked. They felt that Li was like the god of death, controlling the fate of everyone in the restaurant.

The huge pipefish weighs more than 20 kilograms. A fresh pipefish is enough for everyone to share.

Li changed to a heavy ice knife and cut the sea dragon fish smoothly with beautiful movements.

The fish meat, cut into evenly thin slices, is still shrinking when placed on the plate. When the chopsticks touch it, the fish meat will instinctively curl up and try to wrap the chopsticks.

Lian, who was afraid of swallowing a life directly, decisively gave up the dish. However, Kadon, who had been pretending to be stupid, swallowed it whole.

Lian originally wanted to remind her brother to be careful with every move he made and never let anyone see through his disguise.

As a result, my brother's eyes were dull and his saliva was flowing uncontrollably.

Lian helped Katon wipe his saliva while suppressing the shock in her heart.

Originally Lian thought that it would be difficult to cope with the priest's treatment this time, but she didn't expect that during this meal, Li had secretly planted a curse on Carton without anyone noticing.

Lian, who originally thought that Li was extraordinary, was completely confused this time.

How many incredible methods does Li possess?

Why can he use complex magic so effortlessly?
