The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer
Chapter 72 The Magician with Backlight
The battle and killing that took place that night seemed to have disappeared into another world.
Lian used the rolling pin with a confused look on her face, trying to make the big, round dough that Li requested.
Once the work in the cafeteria got busy, half a day would pass in a flash, and Lian didn't even have time to think about what happened that night.
Lian wrote a letter and sent it home, waiting for her father to make a decision. She didn't know what attitude she should adopt to get along with Li and Lilith.
"He was a priest registered with the church. They were buried like this. Aren't they worried..."
Lian turned the pancake in her hand over.
"If the Holy Church comes to find us, the killing of the priest will definitely not be covered up. It is too stupid to be an enemy of the Holy Church. But if the Holy Church is actively doing evil, is it still the Holy Church?"
Lian placed the rolled dough on the empty workbench, picked up a new ball of dough and continued working.
"If we really fight with the Holy Temple, how can I protect my family? To what extent can this guy Li fight against the Holy Temple?"
Lian was completely distracted while brainstorming, and all her movements were completed by muscle memory.
"What are you doing? Fight, fight, fight!"
Lian was in a trance and suddenly heard Li shouting. She was so scared that she almost threw the rolling pin away.
Lian quickly put aside her complicated thoughts and focused on the dough.
Lian glanced to the side and realized that Li was not yelling at her.
Just now, Lilith was just like Lian, so absent-minded that she even remembered the diners' orders wrong.
Seeing Lilith hanging her head and being scolded by Li, Lian felt a sense of superiority.
You are not focused on your work, so you are scolded.
"Lilith, can you still work in this state?"
Li called Lilith to a corner and communicated with her directly.
Lilith nodded and shook her head, looking extremely aggrieved.
"Why are you feeling wronged? Didn't I tell you that the tracking magic is being prepared? Once the arrangements are completed, I will take you to find your relatives as soon as possible."
"Brother Li!"
Lilith threw herself into Li's arms, venting all her emotions through tears.
Ever since she got the intact tube of magic blood, Lilith became absent-minded again.
Lilith couldn't help but imagine what had happened to her parents. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became.
Li knew how fragile Lilith was, and he also wanted to help Lilith solve this problem as soon as possible.
But it is impossible for Li to track back easily by relying on a bottle of magic blood.
"Okay Lilith, you don't have to worry, I'm here."
One moment the boss was scolding a distracted employee, and the next moment it was brother and sister showing off their love.
Lian, who was watching everything, was almost disgusted by the two of them and vomited.
Throwing the rolled dough into the steamer, Lian shook her sore wrist.
"Are you so confident that these things won't be discovered?"
"It was that priest who wanted to plot against us, but we killed him in the end. Who do you think would know about this?"
The priest himself is doing evil, and he will definitely clean up his escape route thoroughly.
No one even knew where the priest went after leaving the Knight Academy.
In official records, the priest was marked as missing.
Li has already confirmed this with Amber.
"But, just like you can use a magic blood to find the source, I think the person behind the priest should be able to find you as well."
Lian's worry is necessary. Who can be sure about the mysterious things?
"I actually hope that the person behind the scenes can come out on his own initiative."
When saying this, Li's eyes were as deep as the starry sky. Lian just looked at Li for a moment and was almost affected by him.
Lian quickly continued to do her own thing while soothing the fear in her heart.
Li was so scary that Lian couldn't even see through Li's depth.
After a day's business was over, Lian and Carton stayed directly at the Knight Academy.
Li took Lilith and rode his bicycle as usual.
"Brother Li, I'm so scared. I'm afraid that the truth will be revealed. I'm afraid that trouble will come to me. I'm afraid that you, Brother Li, will make troublesome enemies because of me."
When the two were alone together, Lilith no longer concealed her weak side.
Lee patted Lilith's hands as she hugged him, trying to calm her down.
"I told you, as long as I'm here, no one can really threaten you."
Li has tried his best to express his kindness to Lilith, but she has been wronged for too long and her mentality has not changed.
Just when Li was about to say something more, his pupils condensed and he slammed the brakes.
On a road with no village or shop nearby, a young woman in nun's clothes sat on the steps by the roadside with her head down.
When Li was riding over, he didn't even notice her!
Li seldom gets emotionally aroused by external things, but what happened tonight sounded a wake-up call for Li.
Noticing that the bicycle had stopped, the nun sitting on the side of the road stood up suddenly.
The nun's pupils were out of focus. She was staring at Li's face, but also seemed to be looking at somewhere unknown.
Lee said nothing, and neither did the nun.
Only Lilith, who noticed something was wrong, jumped out of the back seat.
Lilith got into a stance ready to fight, but was stopped by Lee.
"I don't think I know you, Miss Sister?"
"You don't know me, but I know you, the magician with backlight!"
The nun's voice was hoarse, like an old tape recorder.
Considering the lifeless state of the nun's eyes, Li was certain that the person in front of him was possessed by magic.
"A magician with a backlight? What is that?"
"A title."
Li laughed out loud.
He didn't expect that someone as low-key as him would actually give him a nickname, and it was such a childish nickname at that.
"You are not humble at all, Mr. Great Magician~"
When the nun said this, there was a hint of tact in her voice. It seemed that the person controlling the nun was in a good mood.
Lilith pinched Li secretly from behind. Li knew that Lilith was reminding him to stay away from danger.
"Stop talking nonsense and just say what you want to say."
The nun didn't waste any time and said something that made Li shudder.
"First it was the one-eyed dragon, then it was the elder of the academy, and now three more powerful people have died in your hands. I'm afraid you haven't realized that in the dark side, your name has long been well-known."
After hearing what the nun said, Li didn't show any special reaction, but Lilith couldn't sit still anymore.
"Brother Li, the things we did can't be hidden from the truly powerful!"
"So, Lilith, we have to become stronger. As long as we are stronger than those rats living in the dark, their little tricks will not threaten us~"
Li's words left Lilith speechless, and even the nun, who behaved mechanically, almost staggered.
In order to explain her purpose as quickly as possible, the nun took the initiative to speak this time.
"Relax, you two, we are not enemies."
In order to win the trust of Li and Lilith, the nun turned around and left her back to them.
Under Li's surprised gaze, the nun took off her coat, revealing her slender white arms and smooth back.
Li's eyes gradually widened, and then he was poked by Lilith without any surprise.
"my eyes!"
