The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

After coming out of the maintenance room, Lee and Leon soon encountered the searching royal guards.

The Royal Guards are easily recognisable by their fur-decorated shoulder pads and brightly coloured feathers on their heads.

This attire is a tribute to the forest hunters who initially helped the kingdom conquer the world. Over the long course of history, it has gradually become a symbol of faith and honor.

When he saw these people, Leon's heart finally settled down.

"His Royal Highness Prince!"

"Well, you did a good job."

The captain of the guard who came to the rescue looked up with a puzzled look on his face.

According to Leon's usual attitude, he should blame them for the late rescue.

It was a well-known fact that Prince Leon was a waste. As members of the Royal Guard, they knew more about Leon than the outside world.

Leon is unwilling to endure the hardship of training martial arts, and is not focused enough in learning magic. He is a half-baked person who is not good at anything and likes to make things difficult for others.

But today, Leon was able to suppress his emotions and praise these reinforcements.

What happened to the prince? Did he wake up after the assassination?

The soldiers couldn't understand what had happened to the prince, but they were relieved by his transformation.

At least, next time when I protect the prince, I don't have to worry about being scolded for some small mistakes.

"Your Highness, we will escort you back to the palace."

"Hmm...wait a minute, what's going on over there!?"

Leon had wanted to leave here for a long time. When he saw the soldiers driving a well-defended armored vehicle over, he raised his leg and squeezed into the vehicle.

However, when Leon glanced sideways, he saw soldiers nearby escorting a man, kicking and beating him.

Who else but Li could be targeted by the soldiers?

"Why did you arrest him?"

"Your Highness, this man is sneaky. It is very likely that he exposed your whereabouts. We need to take him back for interrogation. Your Highness does not need to worry about these matters."

After Li followed Leon out, he wanted to sneak away.

As a result, there were too many soldiers around, and no matter what Li did, he would be too conspicuous.

The chef's uniform was shining white, and Li Gang was caught by the soldiers as soon as he moved.

"I'm just a passerby. I was hiding with His Highness just now. You caught the wrong person!"

Li was still quibbling when he saw Leon, who was supposed to leave by car, get out and walk towards him.

Leon stood in front of Li and stared at him fiercely.

Now that he was surrounded by soldiers guarding him, Leon had regained his balance. Thinking back on Lee's performance after the ambush, Leon realized that Lee was more than just a cook who could cook delicious meals.

Li might be a member of the Grand Duke's family, and even this assassination might have been the work of the Grand Duke.

Leon is just a little bit dumb, he is not stupid.

The prince's speculation, to some extent, coincided with Li's.

Looking at Leon's eyes, Li understood that this prince who was not valued by others had grown a lot.

Li did not avoid it. Seeing Leon looking at him, Li also looked back fiercely.

Leon felt uncomfortable when Li looked at him, thinking that this stinky cook had no respect for him at all.

Leon's eyes immediately widened, trying to overpower Lee's gaze.

Li also adopted the same method and stared at Leon.

In the end, the two men rubbed their aching eyes together and parted unhappily amid the soldiers' suppressed laughter.

"He is just a cook. The assassination has nothing to do with him. Let him go."

"Your Highness, this is the only one..."

The soldier looked around, pointed at Li, and then at the bodies of the servants and the griffin on the ground.

Li is the only one still alive, and this assassination must be investigated, or a scapegoat must be found to achieve results.

The soldiers couldn't interrogate His Royal Highness the Prince, so they could only pick on Li, the cook who was easy to bully.

"Your Highness has said to let him go. Does that mean my words are useless?"

What Prince Leon said really didn't work, but today Leon had changed a little, and his tone had a bit of a superior tone.

The soldier didn't want to cause any trouble, so he followed Leon's wishes and let Li go.

Li thought Leon would arrest him and interrogate him, but he didn't expect that the prince was so magnanimous.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for letting me go. I will leave now~"

Lee bowed to Leon like a flatterer.

Leon felt uncomfortable with Li's false respect and always felt that Li's behavior was weird.

Unable to understand Li's behavior, Leon simply stopped thinking about it.

There have been enough troubles today, and Leon's brain has become a little swollen after not being used for a long time.

Leon decided to have a good rest after returning and take some time to slowly think about these incredible questions.

As a result, just as Leon pedaled again, the soldiers started clamoring again.

"Cheat, scam corpse!"

The taciturn royal guards rarely showed any signs of panic.

But after someone shouted that someone had resurrected a zombie, the soldiers over there scattered in all directions, not even caring about their formation.

Leon looked over with curiosity. There were so many soldiers protecting them. Could it be that the assassins were taking action again?

The result is not clear even if you look at it, and you will be shocked when you look at it.

"Oh my god! He really pretended to be dead!"

When Leon looked over, he saw a body bag bouncing there. It took him a lot of effort to find the zipper of the body in the bag.

The body bag was torn off by the corpse, and a person with blood spurting out of his chest appeared in front of everyone.

This person was the servant who was killed by a sniper before!

"Your Highness! Wuwuwu, it hurts so much, I'm still bleeding, they are so cruel, they don't even plan to save me!"

The servant who was put into the body bag was terrified and thought the soldiers were going to murder him.

The servant pounced on Leon, smearing the blood on Leon's pants and smearing his snot and tears on Leon's clothes.

Leon was shocked and angry. He was shocked that the servant could not be deader, and he was angry that the servant actually wiped his snot on him!

"You're scary, aren't you? You lost so much blood and were left there for so long, how could you still be alive?!"

There was such a big hole in his chest. Nearly two hours had passed from the ambush to Leon's rescue. Even if the servant was made of iron, he would have died long ago.

What's more, when they were collecting the body just now, the soldiers had already confirmed that the servant had lost vital signs, otherwise they would not have used a body bag.

"Wow, wow, Your Highness, why do you think I'm dead? I'm just in too much pain and was frightened and fainted. I'm not dead!"

The servant didn't quite understand why he was still alive. When he woke up from the body bag, he realized that he was not dead.

Although the servant was puzzled, he did not delve into it. After all, no matter which god or Buddha saved his life, all he should do was be grateful and not blame him.

"Again, he's pretending to be dead again!"

While Leon was still arguing with his servant, he heard the soldiers on the other side start to get angry again.

Leon turned his head and saw a griffin with a big hole on its head rushing towards him with a miserable look on its face.

"Damn it, don't come near me!"
