The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Outside the prison, hurried footsteps were approaching rapidly.

The soldier in charge of guarding the prison shouted harshly upon seeing this.

"Who broke into the prison..."

The voice just rose and then fell. The prison guards were unable to stop the person coming this time.

"Good job, you guys. I was wondering why you were interrogating prisoners so secretly, but it turns out you were eating secretly here!"

"I could smell it from the tower, but they didn't even call us when they found something good!"

Li looked back and saw Xiaoli, Lian and Lucy coming over, along with Theresa and Maria.

Li was a little confused. The others had been in the castle before, so it was understandable that they came over, but weren't Theresa and Maria at the hospital?

"Why are you here? Aren't there a new batch of corpses arriving at the hospital?"

Lian had a fight with Duke Feng's troops, and fresh casualties had just been transported over.

Logically speaking, Maria and Theresa should be very busy.

"Ordinary doctors can take care of the wounded, and it doesn't matter if the bodies are left there. By the way, Li, you are eating alone here, have you forgotten our original agreement?"

Agreement? What agreement?

Li couldn't remember what agreement he had made with Theresa.

Wait a minute, did I promise something to that Theresa in the dream world?

Li racked his brains to recall that he must not miss such an agreement.

Movies and TV shows on Earth have long demonstrated that when men forget their promises to women, terrible torture awaits them.

Li Ke doesn't want to end up in a world where he chases his wife to a crematorium.

"You must have forgotten that when we dealt with the Kobolds, you said you wanted to reopen the restaurant. I told you to call me every time you made new products!"

If Theresa hadn't mentioned it, Li would have really forgotten this scene.

There are so many trivial things in life, but only a few can be imprinted in our minds and can be recalled from time to time.

The fact that Theresa could remember what happened gave Lee a warm feeling in his heart.

Once upon a time, Li had only one thought in his mind, and that was to live a good life.

As a result, one thing after another has happened recently, and he hasn't been able to calm down and enjoy life for a long time.

Li handed Theresa a plate of freshly made barbecue and gave her a gentle smile.

However, Theresa was only interested in the food on the plate and didn't even look at Li's expression.

"Maria, let me tell you, Li may not be good at anything else, but he is an expert at cooking!"

Theresa happily shared it with Maria, leaving Li standing there in a daze.

At the same time, the gazes of other girls were like sharp swords, constantly piercing Li's nerves.

"Yes, all of them! You have to give me some time!"

There is only one cook but there are a lot of diners. Li is facing an unprecedented test!

After working for half a day, Master Li finally filled the girls' stomachs. Master Li sat on the bricks, breathing heavily.

Just as Li was leaning against the cell to rest, a hand reached out from behind and gently patted Li on the shoulder.

Li turned his head and saw a group of people in the prison, all looking at him pitifully.

"Mr. Li, we are willing to confess, but you also have to give us the barbecue you promised."

Li originally wanted to satisfy the prisoners in the prison in order to complete the intelligence transaction.

Then the girls came in and took everything.

Li looked at the dining cart which still had a few ingredients, and shook his sore arms again.

"I will definitely do what I promised you!"

"it is good!"

Seeing Li Qiang struggling to stand up and returning to the dining car to cook, the prisoners in the prison immediately gave him warm applause.

After smelling the fragrance and confirming that the group of women would not jump over to grab it, the magician, who had originally kept his mouth shut, slowly spoke.

"Under the leadership of Lord Thanatos Yodel, we crossed the turbulent strait and came to the human kingdom in the northern continent. Our purpose was to check the current state of the kingdom and prepare to receive the demons."

"Wait a minute, you said you came across the sea from the southern continent?"

The magicians in the prison nodded one after another.

"We really just came from the Southern Continent. Otherwise, we wouldn't be so confused about the situation and become prisoners like this."

Li was a little confused. He couldn't understand why the Eye of Truth would go far away instead of near.

"Don't we have people from the Eye of Truth on the Northern Continent? Why are you sending people from the Southern Continent? Are you planning to launch a full-scale attack and occupy the Northern Continent?"

The magician quickly shook his head.

"That's not the case. It's only been a few hundred years since the Southern Continent was conquered, and the higher-ups of the Eye of Truth are not ready to attack the Northern Continent. However, due to the blockade of the Strait, the news has been cut off for a long time."

Li really didn't expect that the information between the northern and southern continents could not be communicated.

And judging from their appearance, the members of the Eye of Truth in the Northern Continent had long since escaped from the control of the Southern Continent.

The situation here is a bit complicated...

"Preparation to guide the devil, what's going on?!"

Li handed a plate of barbecue to the front of the prison. The magician inside didn't care about the heat and just grabbed it and put it into his mouth.

The long-lost spices and the fat of pure meat made the magicians look happy.

"It's selling potions that can turn people into demons."

Lee already knew about Jacob and Ethan's situation, so he wasn't surprised about the demon potion.

"Demon potion? I've met people selling vampire potions before. They were with you guys?"

"Yes, vampires are also a kind of demon, there's nothing strange about that."

Li turned his head to look at Lilith who was burping, and when he saw that Lilith was not interested, he turned his head back.

"Well, since you are sincere, I will let you out of the cage, provided that you write down the information of other members of the Eye of Truth!"

"That's no problem~"

The Eye of Truth itself is not a strict organization. Previously, Yodel was able to control these subordinates only by relying on the curse buried in their bodies.

Now that the curse has been lifted, these magicians are eager to live an easy life.

"Mr. Li! If I become your servant, can I continue to eat such delicious food?"

"Servants? You can make such a big sacrifice for barbecue? Isn't there any delicious food in the southern continent?"

"Indeed, no. The cooks in our place only roast the meat over the fire, or cut it into pieces and cook it in the pot."

After the Eye of Truth conquered the Southern Continent, it has been busy grabbing territory and operating and building. The social structure is still stuck in the Old Kingdom era, and many things related to people's livelihood have not developed at all.

"That is to say, apart from the demons everywhere, the development of the Southern Continent is not as good as that of the Northern Continent. This is really interesting."
