Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 176 Pentos Rhapsody ([-])

"Birthright responsibility." Daenerys repeated, and she remembered what her brother always said, he always emphasized that it was his birthright, but when Ian used the word power When it was replaced by responsibility, she suddenly felt a kind of strength.

A needed strength, as if as long as this responsibility is on the shoulders, all difficulties and obstacles are not to be feared.

Power derived from blood?Daenerys couldn't help thinking.

"I am the last true dragon," she whispered.

"Daenerys I Targaryen, Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men, Ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and Guardian of the Realm." Ian didn't give her more time to think, let alone ask What was her decision, but directly forcibly added her 'born' title to her.

"I, Ian Darry, Earl of Darry City, swear allegiance to you, I will be your loyal subject, I am willing to serve you all my life, give you honest advice and absolute obedience, and protect your rights And your country, no matter how difficult the future is, I will always fight side by side with you, take care of your people, and punish your enemies, I swear in the name of the Seven Gods."

As far as a formal oath is concerned, Ian's behavior at this moment can be said to be extremely perfunctory, because he is riding in a carriage with Daenerys at the moment, not only did he not even kneel, but he hugged the weak little queen In my arms.

But at this moment, Daenerys obviously didn't realize this. She didn't blame Ian for being rude, but just asked very blankly: "What should I say? I mean, sorry Earl, I haven't learned it." She pursed her lips, "I don't know how I should answer according to etiquette."

"Say what you want, Your Majesty, a king will not be bound by worldly etiquette." Ian gave her a kind smile.

"Me?" Daenerys squirmed, obviously not quite used to her new identity, recalling the stories she had heard, while combining her own experience, she tentatively said, "I accept you Your allegiance, Count, and I swear that one day I will lead you home."

Going home is Daenerys' own wish, but in her opinion, the exiled Earl Darry and his knights must be the same as herself.

After finishing speaking, seeing Ian's affirmative eyes, Daenerys suddenly became a little more confident.

"Lord Darry," she said, "I make you Hand of the Queen, will you?"

"Follow the king's order." Ian saw the carriage stop, he picked up Daenerys hanging on his body, and put her on the seat next to him, "I will do my best to help you and teach you How to be a qualified monarch."

"We are here, Your Majesty." Ian opened the car curtain and got out of the carriage while speaking, and then extended his hand to Daenerys.

"Where is this? Where are we going?" Dany took Ian's hand, stepped out of the carriage, and was hugged by Ian directly.

"This is the port of Pentos. I've sent someone to find a boat." Of course, Ian would not admit that he had let Celia manage to buy a boat yesterday.

When Ian himself needs to act in front of Illyrio and Hazan at the same time, he and the people around him are not suitable for such an unreasonable thing as 'buying a boat'.

In contrast, Celia became a relatively suitable candidate.

"We will leave Pentos as soon as we find a suitable ship."

"But Governor Illyrio, don't we have to say goodbye to him?" Daenerys didn't know what was happening in Pentos at the moment.

"Of course not. The wedding between you and Khal Drogo was originally arranged by him. Now you can't marry that horse king. Naturally, we must avoid Governor Illyrio, otherwise he will force you to marry Drogo." .”

"Khal Drogo won't blame Magister Illyrio if we go away like this?"

Of course he will, if Drogo doesn't take Illyrio's anger, it will be a real trouble, in order to ensure that Drogo will do it, I also wrote a letter to Drogo using the sealant in Illyrio's study , Ian secretly thought.

"Will he attack Pentos?" Daenerys asked immediately, her face full of anxiety, "Although Illyrio has always had ulterior motives, he really helped us a lot, we can't do this Treat friends!"

This kid is as naive and kind as expected in the original book!Ian couldn't help but slander.

"Your Majesty," Celia immediately helped to explain, "Pantos' city walls are protected by the Lord of Light. Even if ten Drogo's Kalsa came to attack, they would not be able to break down the Pentos' city walls."

"So even if Drogo is angry, he won't really attack Pentos. He only needs Illyrio to pay him some property, and he will leave naturally," Celia glanced at Ian and got his affirmation After looking at her, she continued to say to Dani,

"But your vassals are different. They came across the ocean just to follow the blood of the last true dragon. If you marry Khal Drogo like this, then the greatest dynasty in history will be declared annihilated. And the people of Westeros will live forever under the tyranny of the usurper and his heir."

"Sorry, I didn't think that much." Daenerys shook her head quickly, expressing that she didn't expect the matter to be so serious.

"So, listen to Earl Darry's advice." Celia continued.

"Ian?" Daenerys looked at Ian, "So where do you suggest we go?"

It can be seen that she no longer struggles with the question of whether to leave.

"East, let's take a boat to the east to find the army." Ian was talking, when he suddenly saw Luo Er, who was waiting for someone to rush to the port, he thought about it and thought of a way to completely dispel Daenerys' doubts .

Luo Er brought four or five people and came to Ian in a two-carriage cart.

He nodded at Ian, indicating that he had completed the task Ian gave him...to loot Illyrio's treasury.

This plan was originally made to take away Illyrio's dragon egg, but Ian had already used the function of the system backpack to take away the dragon egg in advance.

Of course, this does not prevent Ian from asking Roll to charge a little more interest.

Seeing Luo Er's harvest full of carriages, Ian was very satisfied, but he didn't show it on his face, and just continued to perform: "What does Lord Illyrio say?"

Ian asked Rolle, and then he turned to Daenerys, "I have ordered Sir Rolle to explain the reason for our departure to Governor Illyrio and say goodbye to him."

Luo Er blinked his eyes. Since he had followed Ian for too long, he had also learned to be cunning. He could tell Ian was acting at a glance, so he didn't answer Ian's question immediately, but Waiting for further prompts from the other party in order to cooperate better.

"What's this?" Ian pointed to the carriage behind Roll, and then stepped forward to lift off the cloth covering it, revealing several boxes inside.

"Is this a gift from Illyrio?" Ian guessed with a puzzled face.

"Oh, that's right," Rolle nodded hastily in a daze, "Governor Illyrio fully understood our behavior of leaving early, and he immediately funded some of our belongings and helped us travel smoothly."

"He's such a nice guy," Ian admired Dani. "A real friend."

"We will repay him well in the future," Daenerys nodded, with less worry on her face, "Since he is sure to deal with this situation, I can rest assured."

"Just right, it looks like the boat has been found, let's get ready to go." Ian looked at a captain running over from the pier and said to the people around him.

Afterwards, Ian and his party boarded the 'Kiss of the Breeze' and set sail quickly.

At this time, Pantos had just set sail, and almost all seagoing ships were scrambling to leave the port, and Ian's ship was mixed in, unobtrusive.
