Game of Thrones: Royal Game

Chapter 64 Quiz Game ([-])

"You're right," said Aris, who was silent for a while, and then seemed to feel that there was no need to hide any more, "We shouldn't have let 'Mountain Weasel' leave alive at that time, we thought he didn't find anything, but we didn't expect Black The falcon threatened us shortly after."

"But you haven't been to Taman Village, have you?" Yaris changed the subject, otherwise you won't be able to get out alive, he added in his heart.

"Fortunately, I quickly found other clues, so I didn't have to do this risky thing."

"What clue?"

"The poor speed at which you moved the 'Blackfyre Treasure'."

"Ok?"

"You only have one 'caravan'. This kind of people can't even transfer the 'treasure'? How did you transfer the plundered goods?"

"It can only be temporarily piled up in the ghost's village." Aris replied in a low voice, knowing that this was the only possibility.

"At this point, I have a guess, that is, the so-called black fire treasure does not exist, and the things you transferred to the abandoned fishing village are the valuable goods you plundered. It is this guess that makes me suddenly enlightened."

"I don't know."

"I've said enough, think about how many questions you asked in the conversation just now?" Ian stopped at this moment, "If you want to know the follow-up, I'm afraid you have to answer my question first That's it."

"You bastard"

"You transferred your things to this abandoned fishing village. Will there be a boat to pick you up? Where are you going?"

Hearing these words, Aris changed his relaxed attitude and immediately became vigilant.

"You are very repulsed by this question, you don't want to answer. This is not okay my friend, we are playing the game according to the rules you set, this is my respect for you, but if you don't respect me, then you can only follow My rules come and go."

Aris took a deep breath and calmed down, "Of course it's going to Seagull Town, otherwise where else? We plan to sell things there and make a fortune."

"Lie." Ian interrupted Aris in a low voice, then met Aris' eyes and looked at him for three seconds, and finally Aris bowed his head first.

"We're going to Braavos," Aris said after thinking for a while, "We want to use the funds to form a mercenary group over there, and then create our own world together, you know me and I My younger brother is an illegitimate son, and Daeron, Daeron, is only the second son of Earl Grafson, and we have no right to inherit."

"A great reason, but I know you're still lying."

"It's not the rules of the game," Aris said with a forced smile, "I'm only responsible for answering. As for whether you believe it or not, that's up to you." After Aris finished speaking, he felt uncomfortable again. He was worried that the young man who had captured him would turn his back on him. , so he added, "In short, what I said is the truth."

"Okay, the game continues." Ian clapped his hands.

Aris looked at Ian in disbelief, he didn't expect that he would pass the level so easily.

"Then continue with the answer to the question just now. What did you think of after you found out that what we were transporting was only looted loot instead of the so-called Blackfyre treasure?" Aris said immediately.

"It's an old question that I've wondered for a long time. Where did the idea of ​​the Blackflame Treasure come from?" Ian himself showed a ridiculous smile, "From the time when my mercenaries mentioned this question, to my After asking about Black Falcon's adopted son, and talking with Sir Wilde, it seems that everyone is convinced that such a treasure exists.

But after sorting out all the inferences and clues about this treasure, I was surprised to find that all these things came from the same person—your brother Sir Simon.

Coincidentally, when the black falcon mercenaries first asked all the local nobles for help about the bandit group that appeared near Whitewall City, you all ignored them.

But after Sir Wilder saw the black dragon emblem on the opponent's body during the battle, Darry City, who had ignored the world for many years, actually sent reinforcements to Wilder and the others.

Afterwards, Sir Simon, who came to support on behalf of Darry City, quickly threw out the statement of the treasure of the Black Flame Restoration. While firmly grasping everyone's attention, it also proved that Sir Wilde was not mistaken that night.
He wants everyone to be convinced that what Veld sees on your breastplate is a black dragon, not a red one! "

"Seven Hells! Did Wilder remember?" Aris was shocked.

"No, that's just my inference." After Ian finished speaking, he asked again, "Can you tell me the reason why you painted the red dragon on the breastplate, Sir Aris?"

"Is this your new problem?"

"Forget it."

"Oh," Aris gave a wry smile, "I didn't draw that, it was my uncle Jonoso Darry's plate armor. He is the Kingsguard of the 'Mad King' Elis II. In wartime, he fought to the last breath for Prince Rhaegar."

"And how did you get his armor?"

"King Robert appreciated Uncle Jonoso's bravery and ordered the return of his body. And Uncle Jonoso's plate armor was not damaged much because of its high quality, so it was kept by his father."

"That looks like something Robert would do" etc.?What did I overlook earlier?Ian slapped his forehead suddenly.

He realized that he should have noticed the abnormality of the Darry family a long time ago...

Before, I had asked Case and two local mercenaries to buy armaments at the Crossroads Inn.

At that time, they went to Darry City first, and then rushed to Harrenhal after finding that there was nothing in Darry City.

My first reaction at the time was that the Darry family was full of loyalty to Targaryen, so they were suppressed to the greatest extent, so that they couldn't even recover some equipment from their dead soldiers.

This idea itself is not a problem, after all, as far as the former loyalists like the Darry family are concerned, whoever becomes the new ruler will guard against them.
But I forgot that the new ruler of Westeros is Robert Baratheon!

Not young Robert!

Young is Robert is not the potbellied old man who appeared at the beginning of the original book, but a leader with great charisma that his enemies can't help but fall in love with.

Robert Baratheon didn't even bother disarming enemies who had surrendered, because all who surrendered to him would voluntarily charge forward for him.

And the two people who were traveling with Case at that time were local mercenaries.

Do you know if there are any local mercenaries selling armaments in Darry City?The only possibility for them to choose to go to Darry City first is that the last time they went to Darry City, there were still ordnance for sale there.

And this time when I went there, it was gone, so where did all the abandoned armaments in Darry City go?Of course, it can only be used to arm these 'ghosts that come out of nowhere'!
Such an important clue was actually ignored by me?Ian pinched his eyebrows.

If he had noticed this earlier, he would have avoided many detours.

Ian sighed softly, and then said to Aris, "Okay, I have no problem."

"No more? Are you sure?" Aris felt that happiness came so suddenly.

"Do you think you managed to keep your family?" Ian looked at him with some pity.

"Otherwise? I'm just an illegitimate child. If I just become a robber, I won't be implicated in the family anyway, right?"

"You're not just a robber."

"Oh, Sir, you have already said that you will not ask any more questions. The game is over. As promised, you will let my family go."

"I really don't need to ask any more, because you have already answered the most important question at the very beginning." Ian shrugged,

"I asked you if you wanted to separate yourself from the family to avoid implicating the family. You didn't deny it, which means that what you did was indeed something that would implicate the family."

"This..." A bad feeling rose in Aris' heart.

"Think about it, what crime did the illegitimate child commit to implicate the family?" Ian continued to remind.

This time, Aris felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

After a long time, he murmured: "Only treason."

"If my guess is correct, after you complete the transfer and loading of supplies, you plan to go directly to Pentos to join Viserys Targaryen, right? After all, he is going to marry his sister to an invincible horse king .

The restoration of the Targaryen dynasty is the last hope for the Darry family and the Grafson family to regain their glory. "

"How do you know about the King of Horses? Daeron clearly said it." Halfway through his speech, Aris suddenly realized that he had inadvertently made all moves, and his face lost all blood in an instant.

On the other side of him, Ian was equally astonished. The statement that he went to defect to Viserys was the boldest guess he made based on the conclusion of 'only treason'.

After all, it takes almost three or four months to travel from the vicinity of Vaes Dothraki, where the horse king Drogo is, to Pentos, where Daenerys is. The proposals are all normal, so it is indeed possible that this news will reach the ears of Sir Daeron in advance.

However, because these two people did not appear in the original book, Ian is actually not optimistic about this guess.

What he didn't expect was that he actually guessed it right, so why did they not come by the side of the Viserys brothers and sisters?

Just as Ian was thinking, Aris' voice came again: "Can I ask one last question, sir."

Ian made a please gesture.

"Where are you holy?"

"If things go well, I will be Ian Rivers, the younger brother of you and Sir Simon." Ian said while grabbing Aris' hair.

Ps: The comment section is right, if the plot is detailed, it will be very procrastinated if the amount is small, so today 7000+ finished the puzzle chapter of the "Red Dragon and Black Dragon" part.
