Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, Wayne only took a short time to rush to the front of the fat nobleman, blocked his way, and looked at him with cold eyes.

He had a face full of flesh, was dressed in fancy clothes, and had a mean look. He didn't look like a good person. Moreover, he was indeed one of the ministers who followed the king when he met the king in the morning.

It is also consistent with the identity in the original work, so it seems that he is the murderer.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the fat nobleman's face turned extremely panicked. He looked at the demon hunter who had just killed everyone standing in front of him, stopped, and while secretly thinking about how to escape, he shouted in a stern voice:

"Demon hunter, you are a pariah, you are a monster. I am the Baron of Ostrett, the court minister. Why are you stopping me? If you dare to offend the nobles, I will let the soldiers hang you."

Hearing the fat noble reveal his name, Wayne became more certain of the other party's identity. He was too lazy to waste words with such a doomed fellow. Regardless of what he wanted to say, he rushed forward and punched him on the bridge of his nose several times, shutting up all the dirty words in his mouth. His nose was broken, blood was spitting out of his mouth, stars were in his eyes, and he fainted with his head tilted back.

Wayne shook the blood off his hands. This was because he had used most of his strength. Otherwise, this guy would have been beaten to death by these punches.

Dragging Ostrett's body like a dead dog, Wayne walked towards the location of the new city of Vizima. However, he soon realized that if he dragged this guy through the city like this, as a minister, he would most likely be questioned by the guards. Although nothing serious would happen at that time, it would be quite troublesome if there were unexpected complications.

After thinking about it, he took out the invisibility cloak from his magic pattern bag with some disgust, covered the bloody Ostrett with it, and then dragged the fat pig that had become transparent and walked quickly towards the location of the Vizima Palace.

After walking for about ten minutes, he dragged the fat pig through several streets before he finally arrived at the gate of the palace.

Because he had just come out of the palace in the morning, the guard on duty at the door knew him, so Wayne did not encounter any obstruction and met Triss who was called out by the guard.

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

"My dear, why are you back in the palace again? What's the matter?"

Wayne didn't explain much, but just leaned close to Triss's ear and whispered:

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

Triss was stunned when she heard this, because when she left in the morning, she had not yet heard Wayne talk about the agreement between him and Foltest, and she didn't even know that there were other murderers behind this curse.

However, out of trust in her lover, Triss did not say much. After speaking briefly to the soldier guarding the palace gate, she took Wayne into the palace.

As a royal adviser, she still has this right.

Walking on the road to the palace, Wayne whispered a few simple explanations to Triss. When the two arrived at the door of the reception room, the sorceress sighed and glanced at the person who was being dragged behind Wayne in a weird posture. Although she didn't know why the person was invisible, she couldn't help but ask:

"So who is the murderer? He killed both 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 about it, and he could not quite remember Ostrit's name, but he still said, "It was the fat minister beside the king whom we met this morning. His name seemed to be Ostrit."

Triss opened her mouth in surprise, but in the end she didn't say anything. She pushed open the door to the living room and said to Wayne, "Go in and wait. I'll go 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.

After seeing Wayne sitting on the chair, he stopped the demon hunter from saluting, looked around the living room, and then asked in a tone that sounded like thunder was about to explode: "Demon hunter, where is the murderer?"

Wayne stood up and saluted slightly, then pulled open the invisibility cloak at his feet, revealing the fat body of Ostrit inside.

Foltest did not care about his surprise at the invisibility cloak. He took a few steps forward and stared fiercely at the unconscious Ostrett. He did not make any radical moves, but said in a tone of doubt and anger:

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

Wayne's expression was calm, as if he was telling the truth, and he said in a calm tone: "Your Majesty, before coming to the palace, he brought a dozen mercenaries to attack me outside the city. The evidence is conclusive."

"And I have interrogated him. It is precisely because he has followed you since he was very young that he fell in love with Queen Adda and hated you for marrying the queen. That is why he turned love into hatred and cast this vicious curse."

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

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

"He hopes that the matter of the vampire bird will become more and more serious, causing dissatisfaction among the common people and nobles. He then hopes to fan the flames and increase the conflicts between the royal family and others, trying to overthrow your rule, seize your throne, and take revenge on you."

Of course, Ostrit never said these things, and these facts were the truths that Wayne knew from the original book, but so what? In this magical world, as long as it is the truth, you can find it out even if you die, and you can't deny it by quibbling.

Moreover, Ostrett was not a smart man. Before he became suspicious, he might not be able to find any clues. But once he became suspicious of him, all the things that this guy had done in the past appeared before King Foltest's eyes.

The king was silent for more than ten seconds, breathing heavily and moving more and more violently, until finally, his eyes seemed to spit out angry fire, looking at Ostrett on the ground, and roared loudly: "Yes, this guy, he has done many suspicious things in the past, but I regarded him as a friend, as a partner who grew up together, and I never doubted him."

"But this bastard actually dared to betray me and hurt my family like this. I will peel off his skin and hang him on the city gate so that everyone can see his end."

Wayne did not comment on this behavior, but said, "Your Majesty, now that the murderer has been caught, I suggest that you let Advisor Triss interrogate him again, so that you don't think I'm lying. Perhaps you can find a list of nobles who will unite to resist you."

"I will officially start exorcising the curse probably tomorrow night, and no one should come to obstruct this operation."

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

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

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

"Go ahead, Demon Hunter. I believe in your judgment. The traitor should be this guy."

"Also, take good care of the curse tomorrow. As long as you can save my daughter, I will never forget my promise."
