The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

The man who came to test Li Chengse left in a hurry. The man ran far away from the hotel, and one could still hear the noise he made after bumping into someone.

Just as the sound faded away completely, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the hotel room.

"Hahaha~ Look at him, he's almost scared to death!"

The few people who took off their identities laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.

"Brother Li is really amazing. How did you know they would come to our house?"

Li Yang leaned back in his chair, holding a feather fan in his hand, which made him look a little less confident.

"It's simple. This place is optimizing its population structure. A noble who suddenly appears in the territory can easily bring about changes. They will definitely investigate my background. If I am of low status, they will try to drive me away. If I am of noble status, they will pull me into their camp."

After hearing Li's inference, everyone nodded, and the brave man even acted as if he had suddenly realized something.

"It turns out that the battles between nobles are so complicated. No wonder the nobles discriminate against the common people."

In the eyes of those intelligent nobles, the lower class people wandering around the streets were not much different from monkeys.

The brave man who opened the door to a new world began to slowly accept the identity of a follower. He could learn real things by following Li!

...

"Impossible! The Weiser family is just a small family that was driven to the edge. They are not as powerful as you say!"

The visitor, who was almost frightened to death, went back and told the lord everything he had seen.

The lord angrily accused the useless butler, saying that he couldn't even do a small task, so what was the point of keeping him!

The housekeeper lowered his head and accepted the scolding, but he kept complaining in his heart.

It was clearly the lord's fault in judgment, but he wanted to belittle me just to save his own face. This is unfair!

Moreover, that Young Master Li Weize just rewarded him with a gold coin, but his own lord didn't even give him a copper coin.

It turned out that the person who pretended to be a noble to test Li was the steward of the local lord. When Li finally questioned him, the steward claimed that he was just a hired passerby and received a bribe of ten silver coins.

Damn it, where did the kickback come from? That was the last dignity of the leader’s family!

The lord was still cursing his steward, unaware of the inner thoughts of the person kneeling before him.

"You, go and verify for me. If he has no connection with the Freyr family, drive that pretentious bumpkin out of my city!"

The lord picked up the silver candlestick next to him and threw it heavily to the ground. The base of the candlestick was flattened and needed to be sent to a silversmith for repair.

The lord of Windmill River Bay was once a young and promising nobleman. He put in a lot of effort to run Windmill River Bay successfully.

Unfortunately, as the situation in the kingdom changed, the lord was forced to make a choice. He destroyed the peace and tranquility he had created with his own hands, just to move his family up a level.

However, the cost of change was huge, and while the lords enjoyed increasingly concentrated wealth and power, they also became increasingly tormented.

These contradictions caused the lords to become increasingly irritated.

The butler felt a little sad when he saw the originally kind lord become like this.

Unfortunately, he is just a small butler and has no other abilities except following the instructions of the lord.

The butler left the room with the broken candlestick. The lord of the room kicked the table angrily, but hurt his toe.

The lord sat down to ease the pain in his feet. After his anger subsided, he sighed dejectedly.

"This is not what we agreed on. Those bastards cheated me..."

Things have come to a point where there is no chance of recovery, and the lord doesn't know what to do next.

Just when the lord was calming down alone, the butler holding the candlestick returned to the room.

"Old, sir."

"…You useless bastard, what's the matter?"

"There is a visitor, a maid, who claims to be from the Frere family, and she comes to visit the master."

The maid of the Frere family?

The lord thought silently for a long time, but still couldn't figure out the reason why the other party appeared. Could it be that he really came here for Vizor Li?

But even so, what role can a maid play? Could it be that Master Weize wants to rely on a maid to confirm his noble status?

This is ridiculous.

The lord had never seen a family that would allow a maid to exercise family rights.

It's a pity that the lord of Windmill River Bay is noble enough, but because he has lived in the north for a long time, he is not clear about the situation in the center of the kingdom.

If he had attended any of the parties given by the Frere family, he would have known that there were two kinds of maids.

One is the maid of other families, and the other is the head maid of the Freyr family.

The head maid, Himanda, walked straight into the room. She was like a lion entering the territory of hounds, without avoiding the lord's sight at all.

Without waiting for the lord to speak, Ximanda directly threw out a large bag of gold coins.

"All expenses of Weiser Lee in Windmill Bay will be paid by the Freyr family."

The lord, who wanted to call the guards to drive the maid out, was stunned when he saw the gold coins.

The maid’s identity might be fake, but the gold coins cannot be faked. Someone actually gave money to that young master Weize. Why?

"Are you really from the Freyr family?"

"I am the head maid of the Freyr family. My name is Nightshadow Ximanda. I am the honorable Lord of River Bay, Count Dalai. I would like to send my regards to you on behalf of my young master, Freyr Carton."

Night Shadow. Himanda!

Count Dalai almost lost his image. He had never seen the head maid, but he had heard of the name of the fighting maid of the Freyr family.

"Aren't you in the capital? Why did you come to the North?"

"I am here to protect my young master."

It's really surprising that what Master Weize said was actually true. He really got close to the Freyr family!

Count Dalai, who originally wanted to drive Lee out of Windmill Bay, now has to change his mind.

However, before apologizing to Lee, Count Dalai first needs to figure out to what extent the Frere family will support Lee.

"That Master Wei Ze, is he the representative of the Freyr family?"

It is very common for a big family like the Freyr family to take in some talented minor nobles to serve as their white gloves in business.

Whether Li really obtained the support of the Frere family, or was just borrowing the Frere name to bully others, the difference would affect the degree of importance that Count Dalé would attach to Li in the future.

This should have been a very easy question to answer, but Himanda took several deep breaths, as if he was struggling.

When Ximanda calmed down, she said something that made Count Dalai drop his jaw.

"That Vizar Li is the sworn brother of my Master Carton."

"Yi, brother?"
