The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 225 I Will Prove Myself

Li left home again, taking only some girls with him. His actions seemed unreliable no matter how you looked at them.

Jack felt very uncomfortable watching his son and his beautiful daughter go away.

"Am I useless?"

Jack turned to his wife who was standing side by side with him and asked, hoping to get a negative answer from her.

But Rose nodded, confirming that Jack was a waste.

"You have to admit that your son is more promising than you."

Jack was choked by his wife and couldn't figure out how to refute after thinking for a long time, so he simply pulled Rose over and acted tough like a domineering president.

"It's because of my good bloodline that my son is so outstanding. You should praise me~"

Rose rolled her eyes at her husband's shameless look. She brushed off Jack's heavy arm, turned back to the house, and prepared to take another serious look at the plan left by Li.

Li led the team to personally deal with Windmill River Bay. Gravel Hills also needed to be developed, and all the heavy tasks fell on Rose.

"Developing a territory is really not an easy task."

Rose remembered that when she was very young, she was also proud of her family. At that time, a group of children would form small groups based on their families to challenge children from another family.

Rose followed a group of cousins ​​to go out and get into trouble. Every time she came home dirty, her parents would always ask Rose whether she won or lost the fight.

As long as she wins, Rose will be praised and get precious candy.

Rose scooped a spoonful of Li's malt syrup and put it in her mouth to taste it slowly.

The light sweetness brought back Rose's childhood memories.

"I want to go to the Royal Academy, too! I want to learn knowledge and develop my territory after I've mastered it!"

When Rose was eight years old, she was eager to go to school with her cousins.

Rose believes that the small group formed by her family is invincible, and she still wants to cooperate with her brothers to dominate the Royal Academy.

But Rose's enthusiasm was extinguished by a bucket of ice water.

"No, you can only go to the magic school."

The Royal Academy is an institution of higher learning that educates the children of the kingdom's nobility, and it teaches many important subjects.

The biggest difference from other academies is how to rule the territory.

To put it bluntly, what is taught in the academy is the kingly way, and the graduates become the heirs of various families.

The Weiser family had already decided on the next heir, a cousin of Rose's who was very knowledgeable and capable.

Rose, who was younger, was naturally excluded, and after resisting many times, she was thrown into the magic academy by her family.

The magic academy is also good. If you can master magic skills, you can also become the backbone of the family.

"I just don't believe it. It's just management science. I can learn better than my cousin!"

Rose was too naive at the time, but with her unyielding attitude, she went to the library to learn about management.

But there were few books on management in the library of the magic academy, so Rose found a way to steal her cousin's books and copied them down at night.

With her unyielding spirit, Rose managed to complete the management course at the Royal Academy, and her learning progress surpassed that of her highly regarded cousin.

Rose excitedly told the elders the good news, but ended up receiving a severe blow.

"The successor cannot be changed. Since you are so ambitious, go and expand the territory!"

Those people kicked Rose out of the family without even giving her a chance to compare.

Rose's parents were also cowards. They accepted the punishment without saying a word.

Rose didn't understand the twists and turns at the time, but she does now.

The family has invested too much in that cousin. If the heir is changed because of Rose's excellence, it will only plunge the family into chaos.

Moreover, even Rose's parents had spent a lot on her cousin, and they could not allow their daughter to step on the original heir.

In fact, the real reason is not that complicated. It’s just that those people have been in a high position for too long and are unwilling to admit their failure.

"I will prove myself that I am better than everyone else!"

Rose still remembered the heroic words she said when she left her family. She jumped into the carriage like a hero and left the warm family.

But many years passed, Rose was no longer young, she got married and had children.

If it weren't for Li's desire to occupy a territory and become the king, Rose would have almost forgotten her original intention.

She came to the gravel hills to make it her new home.

Rose came back to her senses, turned a page in the manual that Li left for her, and rolled out a mouthful of maltose from the jar.

The maltose stuck to Rose's teeth, and also stuck away the messy thoughts in Rose's mind.

Rather than reminiscing about the past, the actions we take now are the most important.

Rose's eyes scanned the words, committing to memory what Lee had written.

Rose's mind was imprinted with the aristocratic code she had learned before, how to restrain the people under her rule and how to live a luxurious aristocratic life.

Rose once thought that the books in the Royal Academy recorded the most advanced systems in the world.

Now that she had read what Li had written about the development of another world, Rose realized how shallow her vision was.

"Rose, I heard you were looking for me?"

"Dear Lilyhem~ I haven't seen you here for a few days. How is the decoration of your home?"

When Rose wanted to develop a small town, the first person she thought of to help was her best friend.

As a vampire, Lilyhelme has little in common with other people, and Rose is not afraid that she will reveal secrets.

"It's just some furniture, what's the big deal? But your son is really amazing, he kidnapped my daughter in a flash."

Lily Hem had no objection to her daughter playing with Li, but Li was surrounded by several other girls, and as a mother she was afraid that her daughter would suffer.

Rose, however, was not worried about Lilith's situation at all. Lilith's treachery and cunning were far superior to those of Lilyhem in front of her.

"Try this~"

Rose pushed the candy jar to her best friend, asking her to have a taste of the sweetness. Lilyhem felt better immediately after tasting the sweetness.

"You're just a mouthful. Tell me, what's the hard job you want me to do?"

Rose felt a little embarrassed that her best friend saw through her thoughts.

Seeing Li bossing people around him around, Rose thought it was a simple matter to assign work to others, but when it came to herself, she even found it difficult to open her mouth.

"Well, we want to do beef business with the Highlanders in the north, and I want you to help make the contact."

The Highlanders live a nomadic and hunting life on the frozen tundra. The area is vast and sparsely populated, and there are no settlements, so it is very difficult to find people.

Vampires are very talented in finding people. Even without using magic, vampires can smell the scent of humans from several miles away.

If it smells blood, it will be easier to identify.

"You want me to go to the ice field to find those barbarians? Don't you know that I am a bat from the temperate zone and can't stand such a cold climate?"

Rose didn't want to force her best friend to do something, so since her best friend didn't want to, she would find someone else to do it.

"Hey~ I didn't say I wouldn't go."

"Ah? Why are you being so mean to me?"

"What are you talking about? If you want me to do something for you, you should at least give me some benefits!"

Rose followed her best friend's gaze and saw the candy jar in her hand. Only then did Rose realize that the stinky bat was trying to bribe her with the candy.

"Here you go, all for you!"
