The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer
Chapter 352 Cunning Enemy
Leon encountered a credibility crisis, and the guards didn't even believe him!
Leon returned to the palace and met his father again. This time the old king was no longer friendly. He looked at Leon with scrutiny and distrust.
The old king previously believed that his son was willing to learn well, but in order to show off, he deliberately spread rumors that demons were lurking.
The old king was somewhat disappointed with Leon, and thought that with Leon's abilities and character, he would be better off being an idle nobleman.
The old king's mind was spinning with other thoughts.
About how to become Pope, and whether there are any capable young people within the royal family.
The old king had the idea of training a new successor.
"Father! I didn't expect that even you wouldn't believe me!"
Leon left in anger and returned to his residence, just like when he was scared by Li before, he chose to stay in his own house.
"Your Highness, didn't you say you wanted to prove yourself? How can you prove yourself if you stay in the house all day?"
George's advice made Leon angry. He clenched his fists and jumped up to hit George.
Despite being extremely angry, Leon still resisted the urge to attack. He jumped back onto the bed and started tearing at the quilt.
Seeing the prince venting his dissatisfaction with the mattress, George was moved to tears.
Who said the prince didn't learn well!
In George's opinion, Leon is the best prince.
"…Your Highness, you take a rest first. I'll go buy you some skewers."
George left Leon in the palace and ran outside.
George, as before, jogged along the street, wiping the sweat with a handkerchief.
Everyone passing by looked at George with disgust, but George didn't care and just ran to the restaurant.
"Phew~ Fortune Catering, it would be nice if it was closer to the palace."
Before going out today, George changed into the waiter uniform that Leon bought for him a few days ago.
The stains on his shoulders had been washed clean by George, and with his proper attitude, he really looked like a butler.
"Hey~ Isn't this George? Why are you here alone? Where is your prince?"
Li Zheng was holding a basin of vegetable washing water and was about to pour it out the door, but he happened to run into George who was jogging over.
George immediately increased the speed of wiping his sweat by two gears.
"Mr. Li, my prince..."
Seeing that George was hesitant to speak, Li invited George into the restaurant.
There are two tables of guests in the restaurant today. They are dressed in aristocratic costumes and are quietly and elegantly enjoying the northern specialty roast chicken.
George swallowed and turned to apologize to Lee.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Li. I came here today to see Lord Edward. May I ask if he is now..."
"Edward took the kids out to play. He said he wanted to teach them to ride ponies."
The young assassins rescued by Li underwent a lot of assassination training.
But they had never learned how to ride a horse. Edward learned a lot from Lee and wanted to teach the children horse riding in return.
"So, when will Lord Edward come back?"
Li shrugged and said that George might not be able to wait for anyone before the sun sets today.
George was disappointed to hear that Edward was not there.
Right now, there are not many people who can help Prince Leon. George wants to ask Edward for help to investigate and discover the devil, but now...
"Mr. Li, can you please tell me which stable did Lord Edward take the children to?"
"If it was Edward, I think he might just borrow the stables at the Cathedral~"
Lee made some witty remarks, but it made George sweat profusely.
Ordinary people are not allowed to approach the horse farm of the temple, so George's trip today was in vain.
"Okay, you look so nervous, sit down and take a break, and then tell me what trouble Leon encountered."
"Mr. Li! Are you willing to help His Highness with his affairs?"
Li had said before that he would not help Leon, so George gave up the idea of seeking help from Li.
Now seeing Li's attitude, George felt that there was a lot of hope.
"George, you are a sensible person. I told you that I didn't help Leon because Leon couldn't give me anything that moved me."
George immediately understood Li's attitude.
Li was willing to listen to the troubles Leon encountered, which showed that Li was also concerned about the situation on the royal side.
"…I may disappoint Mr. Li. The problem your highness encountered this time has nothing to do with the royal family. You will not get any useful information."
"Oh~ I have to judge this. You just tell me the story first."
Seeing Li's firm attitude, George did not hide it and told him that Leon saw the devil and that the devil disappeared when he ran to deal with it.
"Everyone suspects that His Highness Leon is deliberately attracting attention. If he is really a dangerous demon, he should not disappear so peacefully, and nothing should be left at the scene."
Hearing the word "devil", Li immediately straightened his attitude.
If Leon got into ordinary trouble, Lee might actually refuse to intervene.
But demons are different.
"Demons are the common enemy of mankind. I don't want the capital to become a den of demons before the North is developed!"
Li called Xiaoli, who was wearing a maid uniform, and told her to manage the store well.
"Come on, George, let me see how powerful that vanishing demon is!"
George seldom interacted with Lee, but when Lee stood next to George, George felt a strong sense of security.
George unconsciously compared Lee to Leon.
It's better not to compare, but when compared...
Your Highness Leon is really useless.
"Tsk~ I thought the devil would appear in such a secret place, this place is only a few streets away from my restaurant!"
After being brought to the scene of the incident by George, Li kept exclaiming in amazement.
Li didn't expect that the real danger was so close to him.
"You said that only Leon saw the devil's appearance."
"Yes, the wall was still standing at the time, and I was carrying His Highness underneath. He fell down in panic, saying that he had seen a vicious demon..."
Seeing a demon eating a human with his own eyes, in the capital, it was no wonder that Leon panicked.
The enemy parachuted into their headquarters, it seemed like the game was over no matter how they looked at it.
Li took George past the knocked-down wall. There had been no one managing it for the past two days, and some ignorant passers-by had already run in.
Lee and George dodged the fresh mines and stood in the middle of the clearing, looking around.
“…This place doesn’t look like a place where demons have been.”
The space inside the open space is not small, but it is not large either.
Although Li had never seen what a dangerous demon looked like, he could feel that such a large creature could not stay here quietly.
"Even if you tie a dog here, it will bark occasionally when eating, drinking, defecating or urinating."
A demon is eating people here, have the people around never noticed that something is wrong?
“George, your Highness really didn’t mean it?”
"Mr. Li!"
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to doubt Leon. I just wanted to say that this matter was not fabricated by Leon, which can only prove one thing.”
"what's up?"
"The enemy is a million times more cunning than we thought!"
