I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Chapter 106: The Showman

It has been more than a week since Lily's departure from the walls of the capital of the Kingdom of Baratajaya. He traced the entire territory of the fortress and settlement without resting. Every time he stopped somewhere, at that time he would begin to carry out his duties, precisely to overcome the plague that was in that place.

Of course, things didn't go well at first. For the first time, Lily stopped at a nearby settlement in the royal capital.

On arrival at that place he was treated so badly by the residents of that place. Most of them choose to lock themselves in the house. They drive Lily away, every time she knocks on their door.

"Go! We don't accept guests." People usually say things like that. It was just that it was not all of them, some even just opened their window curtains and closed them back without bothering to say a word to her. Lily at that moment could only sigh heavily and walk back.

Down the road made him realize the atmosphere in the place was really dead because it was so lonely. Being along the street of the settlement was seen carts and tents that were usually used for selling, became so dusty and unkempt. It was also seen that some people passed by glancing at each other with suspicious gazes. By walking in a panic-looking manner, they keep their distance from each other like hostile people.

No one knows for sure if they know each other or not. That was because even though they had a close relationship though, they would not say hello if they passed each other on the road.

Lily's focus was then distracted when she found a mother who had just walked out of the house, holding her son's hand she walked so hurriedly to a place. In short, Lily followed the two and arrived at a closed camp. Which turned out that the camp was set up specifically for the residents who had contracted the disease outbreak. Just contact Lily's face turned bright, as soon as she found what was her main purpose coming to this place.

Without a second thought he went in and met a young woman who was handing out a bowl of soup to the sick. The woman graciously welcomed the citizens who were lining up for the soup. He smiled as if he was happy to serve the people. Really, there was no trace of fear and disgust in the woman. In fact, Lily knew by once seeing that the woman was still healthy and did not contract the disease.

This draws Lily's attention to come closer and greet her.

"Miss, do you also want this bowl of soup? If yes, please wait in advance. Take it easy, my father and sister have prepared a lot to share. No need to worry about running out." The woman immediately greeted Lily as soon as she walked over to him and snatched at the queue of an old geezer.

"I came to speak to the noble who runs this place. Can you tell me where to go to see him?" lily said in a soft tone and seemed friendly.

"Oh, then Miss has come to the right place." The woman immediately paused her activities and focused on talking to Lily. "I'm Elena, hello."

This woman named Elena stuck out her hand to shake hands with Lily. Without a second thought Lily smilingly accepted her hand and replied by introducing herself to the woman.

"I'm Lily."

Afterwards, Elena immediately went back inside and brought a little boy who was slightly younger than her. The boy looked mediocre, not handsome and attractive compared to the other children. It's just that Lily realized the boy was cheaply smiling and made himself appear to shine among children his age.

"She's my sister" rich Elena introduced her sister to Lily.

Being inside, Lily took a moment to look around and found a lot of books on large shelves. Without the need for her to ask Elena, Lily easily realized that this father seemed to be a noble who liked to read. That was evident because not only on the ground floor were there a lot of books, but when Lily went up the stairs with Elena she went back to see some bookshelves.

"Miss must have been surprised to see this house so many books. It actually belonged to my father who loved reading and collecting books" Elena said.

"Yes, quite sure he has a great interest in books of knowledge as well as art. To the extent that she has a book by Isac, which has not even been seen in the past few decades," Lily said with a faint smile.

"You...." Elena was wide-eyed and stopped her steps abruptly. Making Lily who was still walking came to a stop.

"I mean, Miss ... how can you know that?" Elena asked nervously, her face becoming so ugly when she saw Lily's back in front.

"Oh?"

Lily turned around and looked at Elena directly. He saw how the woman before him was throwing a wary look at him. Lily became more and more convinced, Elena and her father had something to hide, especially after seeing Elena's exaggerated reaction to her response.

"Of course I know, after all he always showed off his work in front of us. And yes, he always prides himself in front of Mikaela. He's really the show-off boy."

Lily chuckled lightly while covering her mouth elegantly, after explaining that to Elena. Although in the end the woman became increasingly confused and could not digest what the words of her guests were. He nodded and walked in awkward steps with Lily, until the two of them arrived in front of a large door.

Elena took a deep breath before opening the door. Afterwards he walked first in front while Lily followed him from behind. Elena basically wanted to greet her father first and introduce Lily as a guest who wanted to meet him. However, as soon as he finished talking to that father, another man who was chatting with his father on the sofa stood up in shock. The man looked at Lily with a look of disbelief and chuckled afterwards. While Lily herself suddenly smiled thinly after the two looked face to face.

"It... Sir... Do you two know each other?" said another man who looks like he's Elena's father.

"Could it...."

Elena who was quick to respond compared to her father began to feel that something had gone wrong here. She recalled Lily's words earlier, and it made a rough guess about the relationship between the two of them. He closed his mouth with both hands and glanced at his father. He was about to continue his words, only that it was cut off because Lily herself made it clear.

"Really, troublesome. Sure enough we can't find you in the east. You're apparently here?"
