【I'm finally back TT】

whoosh-

whoosh-

whoosh-

On the top of the inn, the rose flag was flying vigorously, and arrows like deadly cold rays flew out from the narrow windows of the inn.

The ironborn men, wearing pointed helmets and chain mail, raised their wooden shields, roared war cries, and charged towards the inn door one after another.

With every step forward, more and more attackers were hit by arrows, their bodies swaying and falling to the ground, but the Iron Races showed no fear and continued to shout and rush forward.

The shouts of killing shook the sky.

The iron men launched a frenzied attack without any regard for their lives. Although the wooden door of the inn was thick and solid, it could not withstand such a fierce impact.

With a series of dull thuds, wood chips flew everywhere and the gate collapsed.

The shieldmen were in a bit of disarray, but the guards of the Duke of Highgarden were all elite soldiers from the River Bay. They quickly reorganized their formation and blocked the ironborn's fierce offensive.

"prick!"

As a loud shout suddenly rang out, spears stretched out from behind the shield bearers and stabbed fiercely into the bodies of the iron races who were violently colliding with their shields, causing blood to splatter everywhere.

At the same time, the iron men behind threw their short axes with all their might, flying towards the back of the River Bend shieldmen.

Blood and flesh flew everywhere. Some of the fallen Ironborn fought with their last breath, screaming and swinging their weapons at the shield bearer's feet or calves.

The shieldman screamed in pain and fell to the ground. The shieldman behind him did not hesitate, and immediately stepped on the body of his injured companion and stepped forward to quickly fill the gap in defense.

Thick smoke billowed from the port and the city area, and the corpses at the door of the hotel piled higher and higher, like a small mountain of flesh and blood.

In the fierce battle, wailing and fighting sounds were intertwined, and fresh lives were disappearing every moment.

…………

…………

It was unusually quiet in front of the cave entrance at the foot of the stone mountain.

Priest Moqorro squinted his eyes and stared at the parchment map in his hand, his fingers gently stroking its edge.

After a long while, he slowly raised his head, turned around and said respectfully: "King Euron, this is it."

Euron Greyjoy's single eye was filled with scrutiny. He tilted his head slightly and stared at Moqorro with his single eye: "Are you sure, my magical priest?"

Maqiro rolled up the map steadily, his expression more respectful: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is the guidance of the true God, I am very sure of it."

The corners of Crow's Eye's mouth curled up in a slightly playful arc: "Your... God is really thoughtful."

"But I prefer to take the shortcut." Before he finished speaking, he moved in another direction.

Seeing this, Moqorro just raised his eyes slightly, and his gaze stayed briefly in the direction where Euron left. He put the map into his pocket, his expression did not change at all, and silently followed the Crow's Eye.

The same is true of the quiet crew of the Serenity.

Not long after they left, another wave of iron men appeared here. After observing for a while, they walked straight in.

…………

On the tower of Dragonstone, the sea breeze blew the sea monster flag and the three-headed dragon flag, making them flutter.

On the tower of Dragonstone, Asha Greyjoy folded her arms across her chest, staring towards the dock, where... flames were dancing wildly in the darkness, illuminating half of the sky red.

The sound of footsteps approaching from afar broke the solemn silence.

Theon Greyjoy's steps were a little hurried. He walked to Asha's side and looked at the frightening fire in the distance together.

After a while, he raised his chin and said in a haughty tone: "Asha, I guess it was Euron who made the noise. He is just unlucky."

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible sense of pride, as if declaring that he had already seen through everything.

Asha didn't respond immediately. After a slight pause, she turned her head and raised her eyebrows: "What's your guess?"

He hated her cleverness the most!
Theon coughed softly, his tone unconsciously carrying some anger: "The Duke of Highgarden sent someone to report to Her Royal Highness the Princess that they were attacked and asked us to close the city gates for defense."

Asha's smile turned evil, and she continued to ask, "Is the Crow's Eye unlucky?"

Mentioning the Crow's Eye, Theon raised his chin again, his face full of contempt: "Of course it's bad luck, because I'm here, Prince Theon."

He raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist: "I will chop off his head with my own hands."

Asha looked at him for a while, and seeing that her brother was no longer joking, she slowly spoke: "Stay here quietly, he is my prey, don't underestimate Crow's Eye."

The sister's tone was rarely serious, which made Xien's face flush instantly: "Damn it, how dare you look down on me?"

His voice trembled slightly with anger, and his body leaned forward with excitement, as if he was ready to argue with Asha at any time.

Asha reached out and grabbed her brother's shoulder. "Theon, at least you are no match for the Crow's Eye right now. Leave it to me. We will share honor and disgrace together."

Theon slapped her hand away and shouted angrily: "This honor belongs only to me. As long as I kill the Crow's Eye with my own hands, no one can stop me from inheriting the Iron Islands!"

Asha stared at her angry brother for a while, and said with a hint of anger: "A kinslayer cannot sit firmly on the Seastone throne. Your hands must not be stained with the blood of your relatives."

Hearing this, Theon's anger suddenly dissipated. He looked Asha up and down and asked suspiciously, "In order for me to secure the throne of Seastone, are you willing to stain my hands with Euron's blood on my behalf?"

Asha looked at him with a strange expression, as if she had heard a huge joke: "Why would I become a kinslayer?"

Theon was stunned at first, then his anger suddenly rose to the top of his head, and he shouted loudly: "You are really planning to take over the Iron Islands. They are mine. I am Balon Greyjoy's only son and the true heir to the Iron Islands!"

Theon's smears flew everywhere, but Asha seemed unaffected. She looked down and said, "My dear brother, what do you mean..."

Her smile was dangerous. "If I cut off this soft worm, will you voluntarily give up the right to inherit the Iron Islands?"

Theon couldn't help but step back, paused, and shrieked, "You, you, you, damn it, I knew you were coveting my Iron Islands!"

After saying this, driven by anger, he was about to step forward and scold him.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a dagger in Asha's hand, with a cold light flashing. He... had to retract his foot.

His heart tightened, and Theon subconsciously tightened the hilt of his sword. Asha sighed softly, played with the dagger for a few times, and put it away: "My brother, every captain of the Iron Islands is a king. They will not submit to the weak. This is our tradition that has never changed."

Xien looked as if he had seen through your conspiracy. He curled his lips and snorted coldly, saying, "You don't need to care about this kind of thing."

He looked her straight in the eye. "Asha, if you swear now that you will not fight me for the Iron Islands, I can promise to find you a husband with a great castle."

"Oh!"

Asha leaned against the battlement, sighing and grateful: "Didn't you say you would find me a husband of an old man?" Theon was slightly satisfied with his sister's reaction. He straightened his chest and said: "This is the kindness of the master of the Iron Islands. After all, your marriage is related to the honor of the Greyjoy family."

After a pause, he immediately warned: "Remember one thing, don't give birth to a bastard! Damn it, even if it's the Regent's child, I will never forgive you, remember!"

As her brother's big face got closer, Asha's lips curved up: "When you really sit on the Seastone Seat, I will consider listening to your voice, provided that I am in a good mood."

"you………"

Just as her brother's anger was ignited, she pushed his face away with her palm and tilted her head to look at the little leader who was walking quickly towards her in the distance.

Theon also noticed the movement, suppressed his anger, simply straightened his clothes, and looked at the person who came with a proud face.

"Miss Asha, the secret passage below the castle has slipped into Crow's Eye's men, and the Kleber soldiers are heading to stop them."

Asha's expression suddenly became serious: "Did you see the Crow's Eye?"

The little leader shook his head, and Theon beside him said quickly: "Asha, this must be Euron's battle plan. He is very cunning!"

He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the dock: "He deliberately sent people to attack that side to attract our attention. His real target must be the Targaryen Princess!"

He licked his lips: "Lend me some help, I'm going to meet my good uncle!"

Their eyes met, and Asha frowned: "Don't you suspect that this is another bait of the Crow's Eye?"

Hearing this, Xien's eyes widened slightly. This is really possible...

But he would not admit in front of his subjects in the Iron Islands that he was occasionally not thoughtful enough!

He raised his chin, snorted, and said, "I've thought of it a long time ago. Since there is chaos in Dragonstone, it means that Euron will soon appear."

Asha ignored her brother's performance. She pinched her chin and said while thinking: "The Crow's Eye's target may also be Theon..."

Theon's mouth twitched slightly. Her disregard made him furious. He suppressed his emotions and sneered: "Doesn't that just save me the trouble of going to him?"

Asha then looked at her brother, paused for a moment, and said angrily: "I warned you not to underestimate the Crow's Eye, Theon. Don't let arrogance blind your eyes, you fool!"

"you!"

To be honest, this was the first time Theon felt Asha's anger so intensely. He felt both angry and a little frightened.

But on the surface, Theon stiffened his neck and glared at Asha. But thinking about it again... he was even a little angry and embarrassed at this moment.

At this time, Asha's voice came over: "Pass on my order, select a few more good hands to protect my brother."

Theon left breathlessly, and Asha trotted to the main castle to meet the Targaryen princess.

When she came back, she looked around the room at everyone, but didn't see Theon.

Asha's oarsman took the initiative to speak: "Theon... the prince said... the people assigned to him must obey his orders. He took his people away, Miss Asha."

.........

The short axe thrown with all his strength spun rapidly in the air, drawing a sharp arc, and the sharp axe blade finally cut into the flesh. The crew member of the Tranquility beside Crow's Eye slowly fell down.

The Crow's Eye moved its single eye and looked at the young man on the steps, who was wearing black leather armor and had his hands on his waist. He had brown-black hair and did not look strong enough. Upon closer inspection... they looked somewhat similar.

"Theon?" The Crow's Eye looked at him with interest.

Theon looked down with contempt and said slowly: "You should call me King Theon, Euron Greyjoy."

Hearing this, Crow Eyes was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Theon, who refused to admit defeat, also forced a laugh, and the entire corridor connecting the underground and the ground was filled with their laughter.

.........

"Kill me! Traitor Euron!"

Theon knelt on the stone slab, his neck throbbing with veins, the dragonbone-handled Valyrian steel scimitar (Chapter 515) held at the back of his neck by the Crow's Eye.

The Crow's Eye seemed to be playing, and Theon roared again: "Damn it, kill me!"

The crow's eye glanced at Theon's trembling body, then scanned the surroundings, and finally looked down at this nephew who pretended to ignore life and death.

After a pause, he raised the corners of his lips and asked, "Why are you here?"

After saying that, he glanced at the remaining men around him, a dozen or so crew members of the Serenity and... the Maqiro priests.

Theon snorted disdainfully, but felt a chill on the back of his neck. The Crow's Eye pressed slightly, and the sharp Valyrian steel scimitar made him bleed.

Blood flowed down his neck and dripped onto the stone slabs.

Theon could not hide his horror, and the crow's eyes showed him a cruel smile: "Don't be afraid, it's just a little skin broken. I may not be able to control it next time, my blood relative, Theon Greyjoy."

"You, you, you... just kill me..."

Feeling the Crow's Eye's knife about to move, his body softened and he fell to the other side.

"You really..."

Looking at the weak Greyjoy descendant, the Crow's Eye couldn't help but shook his head: "I am really happy for my brother."

He raised his foot and kicked his nephew below: "Tell me, I don't like dishonest boys."

Theon clenched his fists in shame and anger. He wished he could die with the Crow's Eye, but his body completely disobeyed his commands and just trembled.

When the Crow's Eye's gaze became sharp, Theon screamed, "I say, I say, don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"What a good boy."

Hearing the Crow's Eye's praise, Theon burst into tears out of shame and indignation: "Asha has your spy under her command. I found that he is a little strange, but I have no evidence. I just suspect (Chapter 500). I followed him..."

The Crow's Eye glanced at a body lying in a pool of blood not far away, and turned the scimitar in his hand half a circle: "Where is Asha?"

He turned his head to glance at the priest of Moqorro standing at the back, then looked at Theon again: "Why didn't she come?"

Theon paused, overcome by fear. His eyes rolled slightly, and he stammered, "That cowardly woman ran away a long time ago!"

The Crow's Eye laughed. "She is not a coward at all. At least she is more like an ironborn than you."

Xien secretly clenched his fists and turned his face away: "You can't find her, even if you do..."

He turned his head and looked up at Crow's Eye: "Don't hurt her either. She is Green Crab's favorite woman, and her man is the regent of the Seven Kingdoms... You, you, I am doing this for your own good."

As he said this, he forced an ugly smile: "My Uncle Euron."
