"No, Anna, this is not a rumor."
"I have heard that my father is discussing with his courtiers. They will expel me from Beauclair and Toussaint in three days and never let me come back here."
"I clearly did nothing wrong and I am clearly the victim, so why do you want me to bear such a crime and leave my hometown?"
As she said this, Sianna's heart was filled with sadness, unlike her sister Anna Henrietta who had been loved by everyone since childhood.
She was born with the curse of the black sun and was considered an unlucky person by many people in the palace. She has been subjected to all kinds of strange looks since childhood.
Later, even his parents, who once loved him, were affected by these rumors, their attitudes gradually changed, and they also regarded her as a disaster.
But is this her fault? Can she decide on what day she was born? Can she decide whether she is cursed? Wayne sat not far from the two girls, watching the two sisters hug each other and cry to each other. Both of them are still minors. Even if they are born noble, they cannot control their own destiny and can only accept their parents' arrangements silently.
However, knowing that Sienna will be expelled in three days is good information. Since Toussaint does not need such a beautiful noble girl who has received higher education in the palace since childhood, Wayne can reluctantly accept this tool.
Judging from her future performance, she can grow from an expelled girl to someone who can recruit many thieves as her subordinates, stir up chaos in a country, and even trick a high-level vampire. Compared to ordinary people, she is still quite capable.
Maybe there are ambitions and desires in her heart, but a girl like her can definitely be disciplined when faced with absolute power suppression.
Thinking of this, Wayne rummaged through his space bracelet and found a low-level spell scroll.
This is a three-ring spell scroll from the world of Faerun. Its function is to mark the target and then find the other party through the mark. The time is one month and the distance is about one hundred kilometers. It is one of the gifts left by the legendary wizard Tesla in the space bracelet. Now it can come in handy.
He hid under the invisibility cloak, picked up the scroll, and marked Sienna, planning to wait three days until the Duke's daughter was sent out of the palace before going to find her.
From my memory, it seems that this girl will be abused by several escort knights during transportation. If I rescue her at that time, I should be able to gain a lot of goodwill and take the opportunity to control her.
Thinking of this, Wayne turned his head and looked at the two duke's daughters who were hugging each other and telling each other about their grievances. He sighed in his heart, left the back garden, and went to other places to continue looking for the residence of the court mage Artorios.
However, Beauclair's palace was too big. After searching for a long time without success, he happened to see a servant who seemed drunk, sitting in a corner in a daze. He simply walked over and cast the Axis Seal on him through the invisibility cloak.
Things went smoothly. In a drunken state, coupled with the hypnosis of the Axis Sign, Wayne quickly got a lot of information from the servant, including the residence of the court wizard Artorios and where the sorceress Fringillaweige, who came to visit her uncle, was currently living.
After using hypnosis to eliminate the future troubles, he followed the route he had inquired about and walked towards Latonius's residence.
Here, we have to mention the abilities of this master of illusion who also belongs to the Wei Ge family.
As a male warlock, his combat ability is not very strong. He is best at research, magical knowledge and making magic props.
He was the magic mentor of the sorceress Fringilla. The most famous thing about him in the original work was that he created a fairy tale world for the young Duke's daughters, Anna Henrietta and Sienna.
Relying solely on the capacity of a book, a magical world as big as a city was created, in which various magical creatures live, forming a complete ecosystem, which is simply a miracle.
However, such a magical world requires a lot of materials and time to maintain. At this time, this fairy tale world magic book seems to have begun to mutate due to lack of maintenance.
But it has to be said that from this point of view alone, the magic of the wizarding world still has its merits.
After getting the correct address, Wayne didn't spend too much time finding Artorios's residence.
However, he would not rashly enter the residence of a strange wizard. No one knew what traps these spellcasters who were proficient in spells would set in their own residences in order to protect their secrets.
Even though he has the blood of ancients and can deal with most difficulties, once the trap is triggered, it will definitely alert the enemy and cause unnecessary trouble.
Unfortunately, the legendary wizard Tesla’s space bracelet has a rich collection, but this wizard specializes in offensive spells and does not have spell scrolls like surveillance or reconnaissance.
There was no other way, Wayne could only take the most primitive countermeasure, which was to sit back and wait.
And Wayne didn't know whether the assassination of the court mage Artorios was successful in the original history. There was no record of it in the original book, and no one had mentioned such news.
In this way, Wayne waited outside Artorios's house for a night and scouted several suitable locations, but did not find anything unusual.
While waiting, he met the court wizard, an old man who looked to be in his forties or fifties, with brown hair and beard, and looked very energetic.
I believe that if he could survive this assassination, he would be able to live for a long time.
After a sleepless night, Wayne returned to the Red Moon Hotel after daybreak, still disguised as a tobacco merchant. He went to some high-end salons and parties, played a few games of Gwent with some wealthy people, gained Gwent experience, and promoted his own tobacco.
During the day, Reso and his companions did not return from completing the commission. After all, the real world is different from the game. There is no fast travel, and the battles are not so smooth. It requires a lot of preparation.
Often, such a commission requires multiple rounds of intelligence gathering and cannot be completed in one day.
Wayne also planned that after dealing with the Cat School assassin and Sienna's matter two days later, he would go to the Valley of the Nine to look for the submerged underwater ruins. There, there were clues and methods for the demon hunter's second mutation waiting for him to obtain.
This matter is very helpful in improving the strength of all existing demon hunters and is a very important matter.
Although in the original game, the protagonist Geralt successfully completed a second mutation, he was still the protagonist after all, and it happened twenty years later.
Before seeing accurate information and intelligence, Wayne couldn't be sure whether all demon hunters could meet the requirements for a secondary mutation.
Perhaps one must be as talented and strong as Geralt, and have completed three experiments on transplanting mutation-inducing agents, in order to meet the requirements.
However, although Wayne had some doubts about this, he was not particularly worried. Even if there were some obstacles to the second mutation, there were so many female sorcerers who were close to him. As long as he wanted, he could still find their help and overcome those difficulties.
After a busy day, Wayne came to the wizard's residence again at night, wanting to wait for the figure of the cat school witcher, but unfortunately, he still found nothing.
At this time, Wayne wished he had drawn the True Eye Guardian in the League of Legends world so that he could use that item to do this boring job instead of himself.
On the third night, the night before Sienna was evicted, Wayne's wait finally paid off.
However, the result of waiting made him somewhat disappointed.
He was wearing an invisibility cloak, hiding in a secluded high place, and watched a thin figure in a black nightgown climb over the wall outside the palace with a very nimble and light posture. After easily bypassing a group of guards, he ambushed the court mage Artorios on the road he had to take every day to go home.
With the help of the shadows, this cat-faction witcher hid his figure very well, and there was almost no flaw to be seen.
Unfortunately, this colleague underestimated an experienced warlock, and he was not equipped with the magic retarder that could weaken the warlock.
Although he moved very quickly, the sword almost pierced Artorios' body before he could react.
But in an instant, Atonios disappeared, leaving behind only a red amulet covered with magic runes.
Wayne had seen this kind of ability that was almost like a stand-in doll in the game. Sianna, wearing a red ribbon, could even dodge the attacks of high-level vampires. Apparently, as the inventor, Artorios was also equipped with such magic props.
The court wizard who escaped the disaster immediately called for his guards, and under the protection of the guards, he brought various magic props and weapons and came to capture the assassin who wanted to assassinate him.
However, in less than two or three minutes, when they arrived at the scene of the assassination again, everything had returned to calm.
The assassin dressed in black had disappeared without a trace.
