The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Lian originally wanted to launch a sneak attack on Kadon and teach his good brother a lesson, but he almost got caught in the trap.

Carton actually noticed Lian's arrival in advance, put on his armor, and ambushed in the corridor.

The decorative armor suddenly moved, startling Lian and almost allowing Cotton to succeed.

"Carton, you have become more capable!"

After not seeing each other for two years, Carton actually dared to attack his sister. Lian felt that it was necessary to let Carton understand the correct way for a brother to show respect to his sister!

Lian jumped back and dodged Katon's half-strength sneak attack.

After a flash of light, the black rose had taken shape in Lian's hand.

"Brother, why didn't you seize such a good opportunity just now?"

"Hey~ Sister finally came back, I can't spoil her mood all of a sudden~"

Li once guessed that the Lian and Katon in this world had a bad relationship.

But that was just Li's unilateral guess, the actual situation was almost the same as what was presented in the dream.

Lian and Carton, a brother and sister, have had a close relationship since childhood. Lian only put Carton in a safe place because she wanted to protect him.

Unfortunately, even if Carton was placed in a remote border area, he still couldn't escape the conspiracy of the Holy Temple.

"Then let me, your sister, see how capable you are!"

The black sword swept across mercilessly, smashing the vases on both sides of the corridor.

"Sis! These vases are expensive!"

Katon was forced to retreat, complaining while looking for loopholes in Lian's attack.

After three clashes, Carton raised his shield, and a flash of holy light blocked Lian's heavy sword.

Lian looked surprised, she had no idea when her brother would be able to use the Holy Light.

Using an incomprehensible parry to block Lian's attack, Cotton pointed his dagger at his sister's neck, declaring his victory.

After the competition, Ximanda led his servants to clean up the corridor destroyed by the siblings.

"Shimanda, I asked you to take care of your brother, is this how you do it?"

Lian looked very unhappy after being defeated by Kadon.

Lian didn't care about losing to her brother. She didn't take it seriously. She only cared about the fact that her brother could use the Holy Light.

"Miss, you don't have to worry. Master Carton does not believe in the Holy Light."

Ximanda took the shield that Katon had just used and demonstrated it in front of Lian.

"This shield is a magic item. It is an enchanted equipment that uses magic stone as a driving force and utilizes sacred runes to simulate holy light."

Ximanda pressed the button on the handle, and the shield suddenly lit up with holy light, making the shield look like a holy object.

"Can this still happen?"

Lian took the shield and started playing with it, like a child getting a new toy.

After confirming that the holy light was really just an enchantment on the shield, Lian turned his attention back to Carton.

"You little brat, explain to your sister why you turned to darkness and made the mistake of disobeying the kingdom!"

Katon blinked his eyes and didn't give any explanation, but just winked at Himanda.

Ximanda accepted Katon's signal and immediately retreated.

"Okay, now you can tell me why you are doing this..."

Lian thought that Katon wanted to talk to her alone, so he drove Ximanda out.

But Ximanda came back quickly with a group of servants.

Each of the servants carried a large box, and when they placed it on the floor, there was a heavy thump.

When Ximanda opened the box, he saw boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, emitting a dazzling light that made Lian unable to open her eyes.

The Freyr family is rich, but in order to support a large number of knights, the Freyr family is also poor.

Especially after being excluded by the nobles, it was very difficult for the Freyr family to explore new ways to make money.

As a result, today, Carton took out boxes of wealth and slapped Lian in the face.

"You didn't dig up some ancient heritage, did you?"

"Tsk~ Sister, your idea is really naive. It's freezing cold in the north, there's no inheritance to be found."

Carton looked at his sister with disdain, then picked up the teapot on the table and poured her a cup of green tea.

The fresh and elegant tea fragrance calmed Lian's mind, and also made Lian more curious about the origin of these riches.

"This is the business revenue for the past two quarters. After cooperating with Windmill Bay to start trade, we are making money faster and faster, so fast that my brother is a little panicked~"

Carton didn't look nervous at all, he was just showing off to his sister.

"All of these you mentioned are the profits brought by cooperating with them!"

Lian doubted her ears a little, but that was the fact.

Li, who has experience on Earth, looks at the human kingdom of this world as if he were looking at a piece of fertile land that has not yet been developed.

You can make a lot of money by just setting up some systematic business.

Naturally, Katon, who was sworn brothers with Li, was the one who earned the most.

"I get angry just talking about this! You little bastard, why don't you do something else but recognize that guy as your brother!"

Can brothers and sisters be recognized casually? Even brothers will fight over family property. How can Li, an outsider, trust it!

"Who is that? Brother Li and sister have no relationship. Could it be that you two really got married secretly at that party when you were little?"

Carton acted extremely surprised, which made Lian feel very sick.

"How can you talk to your sister like that? I'm worried about you and don't want you to get involved in their rebellious affairs!"

Disobeying the kingdom would result in death by gallows, and Lian didn't want to see her brother hanged like a dried salted fish.

Carton curled his lips and didn't take his sister's worries seriously at all.

"Sister, what's so good about the kingdom now? My family fought for the kingdom, but all we got in return was suspicion. Look at Brother Li, he has given me so much wealth. If the king can also reward us with so much money, I will send Brother Li to the capital without hesitation!"

After being betrayed by the Holy Temple, Carton's loyalty to the kingdom faded a lot.

Now, whoever brings more benefits to Carton is Carton’s relative!

Lian couldn't bear to watch her brother obsessed with money. Looking at the treasures piled on the ground in front of her, Lian found that her loyalty was somewhat shaken.

"Shimanda, take these treasures down... pack them up, I want to take them back for my father to use."

"Sister, you can't do this. This is what I earned. You have no right to dispose of it!"

Just as Katon was about to explode, Lian grabbed his ears fiercely.

The eldest sister's majesty was fully demonstrated at this moment.

After giving her brother a lesson, Lian felt refreshed.

"Okay, now tell me what has happened recently, especially your shield and the resonance magic!"

Hearing his sister's question, Carton once again showed a dismissive attitude.

My sister is good in every way except that she tends to be self-righteous.

"Why, you're not going to tell me?"

"No, sister, what you asked is too simple. I'm too lazy to explain."

Carton took out a few books and threw them to Lian, asking her to read them by herself.

The contents of the book describe in detail the manufacture of enchanted equipment and the theoretical conjectures of resonance magic.

After Lian took the book, her hands were shaking. She didn't expect that the thing she had been trying to get would be so worthless in her brother's hands.

"That's nothing. Brother Li said that all the technologies that can be used are publicly available. He has better ones in his hands, and he is also working hard to develop more powerful ones. What is this called? Use one generation, reserve one generation, and develop one generation~"
