Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

Chapter 174 The murderer is actually him

The fat noble was very slow. Although he was already trying to escape, and the fat all over his body was trembling due to the violent exercise, but facing Wayne, whose speed was at the peak level even among demon hunters, everything was In vain.

Even though he was hundreds of meters away, it only took a short time for Wayne to rush in front of the fat noble, block his way, and look at him with cold eyes.

With a sinister face, gorgeous clothes, and mean eyebrows, he didn't look like a good guy. Moreover, he was indeed a minister who was with the king when he met with him in the morning.

It also matches the identity in the original work. It seems that he is the murderer.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the fat noble's face became very panicked. He looked at the demon hunter who had just killed everyone in front of him, stood still, and while secretly thinking about how to escape, he shouted loudly and sternly:

"Demon hunter, you are a pariah, you are a monster. I am the Lord Chamberlain, Baron Ostritt. Why are you trying to stop me? If you dare to offend the nobles, I will let the soldiers hang you."

Listening to the fat noble revealing his name, Wayne became even more convinced of the other party's identity. He was too lazy to waste words with such a mortal man, and didn't care what else he wanted to say. He just bullied him and punched him several times. On the bridge of his nose, he stuffed all the obscene words in his mouth, and hit him so hard that the bridge of his nose was broken. He vomited blood, his eyes were filled with stars, and he threw his head back in dizziness and fainted.

Wayne shook off the blood on his hands. This was because he had used up most of his strength. Otherwise, with these few punches, this guy would definitely be beaten to death.

Dragging Ostritt's body like a dead dog, Wayne walked towards the location of Vizima New City, but soon he thought that if he dragged this guy through the city like this, in his capacity as minister , it is very likely that it will lead to questioning by the guards. Although it will not be a big deal at that time, it will be quite troublesome to have extraneous matters.

After thinking about it, he took out the invisibility cloak from the magic pattern bag with some disgust, covered Austerite with his face covered in blood, and then dragged the fat pig that had become transparent, and walked quickly towards Vizima. Walk to the location of the palace.

After walking for about ten minutes, he dragged the fat pig through several streets before dragging him to the entrance of the palace.

Because he had just come out of the palace in the morning, and the guard on duty at the door knew him, Wayne met Triss who was called out by the guard without any hindrance.

Although the sorceress was a little surprised that Wayne had left and returned, she still walked quickly to Wayne's side and asked softly:

"My dear, why did you come back to the palace again? What's the matter?"

Wayne didn't explain much. He just leaned into Triss's ear and explained softly:

"I have caught the murderer of the curse. Take me to the living room where we talked this morning, and then inform His Majesty the King to report this matter."

Triss was stunned when she heard this, because when she left in the morning, she had not heard Wayne talk about the agreement with Foltest, and she did not even know that there were other murderers of this curse.

However, out of trust in her lover, Triss didn't say much. After a few words with the soldiers guarding the palace gate, she took Wayne into the palace.

As a royal advisor, she still has this right.

Walking on the road to the palace, Wayne softly explained a few words to Triss. When the two came to the door of the living room, the sorceress sighed and glanced at the woman who was dragged behind her by Wayne in a weird posture. Although she didn't know why that person was invisible, she couldn't help but ask:

"So who is the murderer? He actually killed the queen and the princess at the same time. His Majesty the King will definitely not let him go. His end will definitely be very miserable."

Wayne thought for a while, he couldn't remember Austere's name, but he still said:

"It's the fat minister we saw this morning, the fat minister next to the king. He seems to be named O..., Ostrite."

Triss opened her mouth in surprise, but in the end she didn't say anything. She opened the door to the living room and said to Wayne:

"You go in and wait. I will inform His Majesty the King. He should come to see you soon."

Wayne nodded, walked into the living room, found a chair and sat down, waiting quietly.

Probably less than five minutes later, amid a burst of hurried footsteps, King Foltest, wearing a gorgeous king's robe, opened the wooden door and walked in.

After seeing Wayne sitting on the chair, he stopped the demon hunter from saluting, searched the living room with his eyes, and then asked in a tone that sounded like thunder was about to break out:

"Witcher, where is the murderer?"

Wayne stood up and gave a slight salute, then pulled open the invisibility cloak at his feet, revealing Austere's fat body inside.

Foltest didn't care about being surprised by the invisibility cloak. He took a few steps forward and stared fiercely at the unconscious Ostritt. He didn't make any drastic move, but used a confused and angry tone. said:

"Is it him? Austere, this guy has been my attendant since he was very young, and then became my chamberlain minister for more than ten years."

Wayne's expression was calm, as if he was telling the truth, and he said calmly:

"Your Majesty, before coming to the palace, he led a dozen mercenaries to attack me outside the city. The evidence is conclusive."

"And I have already interrogated him. It is precisely because he has followed you since he was very young that he has fallen in love with Queen Yada since he was very young and has a grudge against you for marrying the queen. That's why he Love breeds hatred and imposes this vicious curse."

"Let the queen and the princess die together on the same day."

"And his conspiracy is not only that, the resurrection of the vampire bird is also due to his curse."

"He just hopes that the vampire bird thing will get bigger and bigger, causing dissatisfaction among the common people and nobles, and then fan the flames, increase the conflict between the royal family and other people, try to overthrow your rule, take away your throne, and take revenge on you .”

Of course, Austere has never said these things. These facts are all the truth that Wayne knows from the original work, but so what, in this world with magic, as long as it is the truth, you can find it even if you die. Coming out is not something you can deny through sophistry.

Moreover, Austerit is not a smart person. Before you suspect him, you may not be able to find any clues. But once the object of suspicion is placed on him, all of this guy's previous actions will emerge. In front of King Foltest.

The king was silent for more than ten seconds, breathing heavily in his chest, and his movements became louder and louder, until finally, his eyes seemed to spurt out angry fire, and he looked at Austerit on the ground and roared loudly:

"Yes, it's this guy. He has had many questionable behaviors in the past, but I regard him as a friend and a partner I grew up with, and I have never doubted him."

"But this bastard dares to betray me like this and hurt my family. I'm going to skin him and hang him on the city gate so that everyone can see his fate."

Wayne did not make any comment on this behavior, but said:

"Your Majesty, now that the murderer has been caught, I suggest that you ask Triss to interrogate him again, lest you think I am lying. Perhaps, you can also find some nobles who have united to resist you. The list also said indefinite."

"About tomorrow night, I will officially start to expel the curse, and no one will come to hinder this operation."

"If you insist on watching, please arrange your time."

"Then, please allow me to take my leave first. Your Majesty, I still have some things that need to be prepared in advance."

King Foltest was silent for more than ten seconds, then sat on the wooden chair by the fireplace, looked at Wayne and said:

"Go, Demon Hunter, I trust your judgment, the traitor should be this guy."

"Besides, deal with tomorrow's curse well. As long as you can save my daughter, I will never forget my promise."
