The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Freyr Lian moved like a gust of wind, leaving the military camp in a hurry and returning here in a hurry.

When the hero saw Lian coming back by herself without Mueller following her, he immediately asked her curiously.

"Where is Grand Duke Freyr?"

Lian looked at the hero, and seeing that he was very interested in her father, she decided to play a joke on him.

"Brave man, I bring back some bad news."

"what?"

"My father did not go back to garrison the port city, nor did he return to the capital. Guess where he went~"

The hero hated Lian's bad joke so much that he simply shut up and stopped talking.

Lian slapped the document the hero was working on, interrupting the official business he was doing.

"My father decided to go to Uncle Feng to help organize the noble coalition, so we are in trouble!"

"What did you say!"

Grand Duke Feng alone is enough to torment people, and now Grand Duke Freyr has gone to strengthen the coalition of nobles. The revolutionary army is about to face an enemy of a crazy level.

"Isn't Grand Duke Freyr your father? You two are enemies, but is this okay?"

"Of course~ In wars between nobles, it is common for older and younger brothers to serve in different camps. The same is true between father and daughter~"

Lian remembered that there were once nobles who desperately gave birth to children, and then assigned each child to a different camp, so that no matter which side won in the end, the family's bloodline and glory could be passed on.

"I don't understand!"

The brave man who was born as an adventurer could not understand what was going on in the nobles' minds. In his opinion, both Lian and Grand Duke Freyr were not normal!

"Let me fight against two dukes. Am I crazy or is this world crazy?"

After receiving the bad news, the brave man was so anxious that he kept turning around in circles. He walked back and forth in the tent and almost knocked over the heating boiler.

"Brave man, the strength of the noble coalition has been enhanced. We don't have time to train your soldiers slowly."

Lian looked through the gap in the tent at the new recruits who were still training outside.

These recruits wore newly issued padded jackets and carried mass-produced ray guns on their shoulders.

The brave man's original plan was to train a group of array infantry that could stand their ground on the battlefield, but unfortunately the brave man had no time.

The brave man understood that the noble coalition with the participation of Grand Duke Freyr would have more flexible mobility and the ability to divide troops and fight.

The old knight system of the noble coalition will be fully utilized under the leadership of the two grand dukes.

"It seems that we can only make the next plan in advance and move the battlefield to an area that the nobles are not used to!"

The hero stood up and suddenly pulled off the dust cloth behind him. A clear map of the central part of the kingdom appeared in front of the hero and Lian.

This map has never been shown to anyone else, and not even Lian knows that the screen the hero has been leaning against is actually a tactical map.

“…Isn’t this picture any different from what we usually see during tactical meetings?”

After carefully examining the map, Lian raised her own questions.

"The maps are all the same, the difference is the points marked on this map."

This map was the arrangement left by Li. It was given to the hero for safekeeping long before he organized the revolutionary army.

After receiving the hero's hint, Lian carefully observed the punctuation and legends on the map, and soon discovered the difference between the map and ordinary topographic maps.

"This map highlights the main forest and mineral producing areas on the Doma Plain!"

There are large forests growing on the Doma Plain, and at the end of the plain, there are also some peaks standing in an interlaced manner.

Basically, minerals can be mined from the mountains at the borders of these plains. Before the war began, they were all the property of local nobles.

"Pass on my order! The revolutionary army is ready to march!"

The revolutionary army, which had rested for several months, suddenly broke camp and left its original position. This information was not learned by the coalition of nobles until three hours later.

When Duke Feng got the news, he scolded the adjutant who reported the news.

"Such important information, why are you telling me now? Do you know what terrible consequences will occur if the revolutionary army directly attacks us in three hours?"

It’s no wonder that Grand Duke Feng was angry. Ever since the snow began to fall, the coalition of nobles had stopped even the most basic drills.

Duke Feng's personal guards were already qualified soldiers in the coalition forces, but they still showed obvious slackness in their attitude towards the revolutionary army.

The nobles all believed that it was impossible to fight in winter, and some noble lords requested to return to their manors in the royal capital to spend the winter. Duke Feng did not agree, so they abandoned their soldiers and left.

Grand Duke Feng and the revolutionary army were in a standoff. On the surface, they seemed evenly matched, but in fact, only Grand Duke Feng himself knew that the coalition of nobles had no ability to fight at all.

It has been a year since Grand Duke Feng took over the Nobles' Coalition. He thought that with his iron-fisted leadership, the Nobles' Coalition would be able to organize a group of capable soldiers.

It turned out that Duke Feng overestimated himself.

"I am sorry to the kingdom and to His Majesty!"

"Hey~ my old friend, have you hooked up with the palace lady behind His Majesty's back?"

In the kingdom, basically no one dared to tease Grand Duke Feng like this. Grand Duke Feng, who was still feeling sorry for himself a moment ago, jumped up when he saw the person coming.

Archduke von stepped forward and slapped Muller on the shoulder, and immediately hurt his own hand.

"Mueller! What are you wearing? My hand!"

Muller ignored Archduke von's screams and walked straight into the tent. He grabbed the teapot on the stove and poured himself a cup of hot water.

"Huh~ This small stove is great. The Port City also needs one. Where can I buy one?"

"They are available in all civilian markets in the North. The Kingdom has also made a batch and left them in the warehouse. You can make a report and ask the logistics department to send them to the port city. Mueller, why did you come to the North?"

Relative to the port city, the central part of the kingdom is the north. Muller has never left that place since he took over as the general of the port city twenty years ago.

Upon suddenly seeing his old friend, Grand Duke Feng threw aside all the urgent documents, sat directly opposite Muller and drank tea with him.

Muller and Archduke von are actually brothers from the same ancestor, but in this world, if the relationship goes beyond the grandfather's generation, they are defined as two families, so they have always been friends.

Muller picked up the document that Grand Duke Feng had discarded and glanced at it. He found that it contained matters such as the transfer of the revolutionary army. Muller thought that this thing was useless and threw it directly into the stove to warm it.

"I'm here to see my daughter, and I'll come to help you after I'm done."

"Help me? You don't care about the coast? What if the demons come to attack us?"

"…Edward is guarding the beach, and that bastard Li is also there."

Duke Feng slapped his head and immediately felt relieved.

"I was wondering why I hadn't seen that kid Li for a while. Turns out he went to honor his father-in-law!"

"Blake! If you dare to mention the word father-in-law, I will never let you go!"
