Chapter 509: The Dragon King's sense of oppression

Spice Town, port.

A royal ship with a three-headed red dragon flag was anchored, and Captain Ilic of the Iron Guard directed the guards to move the cargo.

Rhaenys came over with the sea snake, and the couple stared at one person together.

"Hiss!"

Syrax flapped his wings, and the topaz-colored scales on his body shone brightly, flamboyant and beautiful.

Rhaenyra stopped beside the dragon, holding the baby girl in her swaddling clothes and coaxing her softly.

Half an hour ago, Rhaegar took Helena and Aemond to ride the dragon.

Rhaenyra didn't want to stay on Tidehead Island, and decided to set off to return to King's Landing.

"Rhaenyra, be careful on the road."

Rhaenys knew she had no face to keep her, and she kept telling her guilty.

Who asked the nephews and grandchildren to be assassinated in their own territory, and they couldn't get rid of the blame.

Rhaenyra smiled comfortingly and said politely: "I will bring Rhaenyra back after the incident is over."

She really didn't trust the safety of Tidehead Island, so she packed up her children and took them away together.

The sea snake came over with a cane, his face pale: "There are wolves around the Iron Throne. Your Majesty has a plan, and the queen needs to persuade you more."

Rhaenyra didn't hesitate: "The assassin who hurt my son took the ship of Braavos."

The sea snake's words were just short of saying that Rhaegar acted impulsively.

However, Braavos was also one of the culprits.

If the three dragons could deter to the end, she would support Rhaegar's doing so.

The sea snake was speechless for a moment, sighed and retreated.

Rhaenys was helpless, and now was not the time to comfort her husband.

She understood her husband's worries.

Volantis joined forces with Slaver's Bay and was eyeing the territory of the disputed land.

Provoking Braavos at this time would easily cause a backlash.

"Your Majesty, we can set off now."

After the cargo was moved, Erik came to report.

Rhaenyra said "thank you for your hard work" and grasped the ladder extending from the saddle with her bare hands.

Daeron suddenly walked out of the crowd, apologetically: "I still have work to serve wine. After the alert on Tidehead Island is over, I will return to King's Landing to comfort my nephews."

Rhaenyra looked around and said something else: "Haven't you found Aegon yet?"

"The patrol soldiers are still searching."

Daeron's face flushed, and he was embarrassed to say it out loud.

After Baelon was safe, Aegon slipped away alone.

He was still on Tidehead Island, but he lost contact because of whoring.

It's not that he was in danger, after all, all the assassins have been brought to justice.

Aegon has done temporary disappearances more than once or twice.

Rhaenyra was speechless and said silently: "Return to King's Landing as soon as possible. Rhaenyra is scared."

Immediately, she climbed onto the dragon's back.

Under the attention of the sea snakes and others, the dragon and the big ship sailed out of the port together.

…

On the vast sea, the royal ship was like a red crystal, drifting alone back home.

"Hiss!"

"…"

Syrax led the way, soaring over the Blackwater Bay, escorting the ship to sail safely.

On the deck, many guards looked up.

There was a small dragon on each wing of the bright yellow dragon.

One was emerald green, and the other was light green.

They looked like two green leaves, setting off the noble grace of the bright yellow dragon.

…

Inside the cabin, the corridor.

Bang! Bang!

One by one, the crossbow arrows hit the straw target set in advance, and nailed to the chest of the simulated straw man like a catharsis.

Benila bit her lower lip, holding a Myr three-link crossbow in her hand, and hatefully regarded the straw man as an imaginary enemy.

"Great, hit the bull's eye."

"Don't flatter me, the distance is too close."

"…"

Belron was far away, tiptoed in front of the window, looking at the three dragons in the sky.

Her ear moved slightly, sensing that Benila was wiping her sweat.

Baelon's eyes were slightly yearning, and he joked: "You really should ride a dragon with Aemon. Now he is the only one who is so powerful. I don't know how proud you will be when you go back."

Benila put down the crossbow and said sullenly: "Forget it. No matter how good you are at riding a dragon, you can only flee in a panic after getting off the dragon's back."

When she thought of being chased all over the street in the morning, she wanted to crawl into the cracks in the ground.

Baelon retracted his gaze and said strangely: "That's different. If you have a dragon, you should ride it."

Father said that there is no rush to hone martial arts.

"Tsk, do you think everyone is like you, with the Iron Guard brothers protecting you closely?"

Benila was indignant and glanced at Ser Alec standing at the end of the corridor.

Baelon said embarrassedly: "This is not my request."

Compared with the three brothers, the Benila sisters did not specially arrange for the Kingsguard to protect them.

Adoptive mother Rhaenyra did something to increase the number of female companions and guards who usually accompanied them.

Hearing this, Benila said awkwardly: "I don't feel unfair, I just feel a little..."

The words were on the tip of her tongue but she couldn't say them. There was no one to confide in her grievances.

The little girl leaned back in front of a cabin door.

Through the wooden door, she could hear her faint crying clearly.

That was her room with her sister, Renia.

Baeron walked to her side silently, took her hand and comforted her silently.

He could feel that the other party was trying to suppress his emotions.

Benila looked out the window and said suddenly: "I hate my father."

"Why?"

Baeron looked up and asked.

Benila turned her head to the side, not wanting people to see her tears, and gritted her teeth and said: "He betrayed my mother and let Renia and I go on our own."

Renia's succession qualifications were questioned, and her biological parents were not present.

Even when the sisters were assassinated and needed their parents' love the most, they could only get a little love that did not belong to them from their adoptive mother Renia.

Obviously, she and Renia had their own parents.

Thinking of the root of everything, she deeply resented her father who was in Tyrosh.

"This..."

Belron felt sympathy, but could not agree with the problem between the elders.

The brother and sister held hands and leaned against the hard door.

The low sobbing behind the door became an alternative background music.

...

Late at night.

"Hiss--"

"..."

A roar of an angry dragon resounded throughout Braavos, and the green firelight swayed.

The Titans burned green fire, and the bronze armor and rope grass skirts burned out, standing bare and black.

Fires raged in various ports, engulfing the stored goods and moored merchant ships.

The defenders rushed out and were engulfed by the dragon flames in an instant.

For a time, the entire bay city-state became a purgatory on earth with wailing and flames.

...

Sea King's Palace.

Under the night sky, three dragons broke through the dark clouds, destroyed the strict defenders, and landed safely in the fountain square.

The glutton was like a mountain of coal, with green eyes that were dead silent.

As the dragon's mouth opened and closed, strands of green fire spilled out, evaporating the spring unintentionally.

Dreamfire and the sheep thief, one on the left and one on the right, crouched on both sides of the dark dragon, scanning the surrounding environment with their pupils.

Whenever there was any wind blowing on the grass, the sulfur-filled dragon flames would arrive in an instant.

Hundreds of miles away.

Sea King Spandam hid in the Sea King's Hall, shouting to the maid to hastily put on his armor, with a pair of heterochromatic eyes staring at the outside world at all times.

"Damn it, what's wrong with the Iron Throne? How dare it send three dragons to attack for no reason!?"

Several ministers trembled and cursed the enemies who suddenly appeared.

"Shut up!"

Spandam was hysterical, bearing the huge pressure brought by the dragon.

Outside the window, the three dragons were motionless, like three stone statues carved by the god of death.

But it was those three pairs of huge, eerie vertical pupils like bronze bells that seemed to be able to extinguish the free life of all things in the world.

Through the dark green dragon flames of the surrounding buildings, Spandam could vaguely see some detailed scenes.

The dark dragon shook its back and slowly crawled on the ground.

A silver-haired figure sat firmly on the dragon's back, and even if the dragon shook, it did not move at all.

Suddenly, the figure stood up high and slid down the dragon's back by pulling the reins.

At the same time.

On the backs of the other two dragons, two dragon riders followed closely.

Spandam lay tightly on the glass window, staring with wide eyes without blinking, afraid of missing the slightest detail.

Under the dim night sky.

The silver-haired figure walked towards the Sea Palace step by step, looking up at the Sea Palace.

In an instant, Spandam saw the pair of cold purple eyes, and cold sweat instantly oozed out of his back.

He clearly felt that the other party had discovered him.

"Gulp~"

Swallowing hard, Spandam asked: "Has the rescue letter been sent? When will the Iron Bank send someone?"

A minister stepped out and said tremblingly: "The messenger has been sent, but I don't know if he can safely pass through the streets burning with dragon flames, and..."

He stopped talking halfway.

The Iron Bank is rich, but it can't send a large army immediately.

Not to mention a death squad that can fight three dragons.

"Asshole!!"

Spandam was shocked and angry. He pounded on the balcony and turned around to make a decision: "Follow me and meet the king of the Iron Throne."

If you can't beat him, you have to give in.

Thinking of the recent secret reports from Volantis and Pentos, as well as the frequent trade in Slaver Bay.

This sea king already knows the intention of the Iron Throne.

...

The door of the Sea King's Palace is open.

Spandam's face was ashen, and he led a group of ministers with cramps in their calves out.

At the steps of the palace.

Three silver-haired figures have arrived here, with their hands behind their backs, looking up at the local master.

"Roar..."

Menghuo stretched his neck, propped up his wings and crawled forward for a distance, his light blue dragon head level with the Sea King's Palace.

After several years of growth, this elderly female dragon has grown by leaps and bounds.

The head and tail are more than 100 meters long, making it the third adult dragon after Glutton and Vhagar.

In terms of combat power alone, it has reached the top level.

Swish——

Rhaegar drew out the true fire from his waist, the ruby ​​​​brightened, and pointed it straight at the new Sea King who had met several times.

The sound of the sword was like a signal.

Helena drew out the sword Changxia, and the slender sword body was cold and sharp.

Menghuo's vertical pupils condensed, the dragon head slowly moved down, and the dragon's mouth gathered a ball of light blue dragon flame.

At this time, Rhaegar tilted his head and whispered: "Sea King, let's talk?"

Spandam was startled when he heard the voice, his legs froze in place, hesitating whether to agree.

The perspectives of both sides changed.

Rhaegar and his group were obviously below the high platform, but they were higher than the Sea King.

…

King's Landing, Red Castle.

Rhaenyra finished washing up, changed into a soft silk nightgown, and took a sip of strong liquor to prepare for sleep.

Taking care of children is very tiring, especially when the children are assassinated.

She felt that she was derelict in her duty.

Knock knock!

There was a knock on the door.

Rhaenyra asked in confusion: "Elenda, come in."

Squeak——

The door opened and a thin maid walked in.

To be more precise, she should be called a female companion.

Elenda closed the door carefully, holding a letter in her hand: "Your Majesty, the Black Swan of Lys."

"Give it to me."

Rhaenyra opened the envelope, and a black and white rose badge came into view.

Johanna Swain, a famous socialite in Rees, is known as the "Black Swan".

After the Narrow Sea War, he joined Rhaegar and became the well-deserved Lord Steward of Lys.

Rhaenyra took over Lys's power, and Johanna pledged allegiance to the new queen.

Open the letter and read it in detail.

Rhaenyra frowned more and more, and soon turned angry: "Daemon, this bastard, has failed Laena."

Bang——

The letter slammed on the table, and Elenda secretly saw the content on it.

[White Maggot is pregnant, Prince Tyrosh is planning a wedding]

Elenda was shocked and bowed her head dutifully.

You know, Laena is one of the councilors in Lys.

Part of the reason is due to duty, and part of the reason is because Lady Messalia, known as "White Maggot", almost broke up with her husband Daemon.

Now Lady Messalia is pregnant, and marrying into the royal family is unstoppable.

"Damn bastard!"

Rhaenyra became more and more angry as she thought about it, and she rarely swore.

In recent years, she and Lanar have been in the same boat and their relationship has become closer.

Seeing her friend's rights being damaged, she couldn't help but feel unfair.

Elenda trembled and put the letter on the candle flame to burn it.

When Rhaenyra saw it, she held her forehead helplessly: "Forget it, I'll clean it up later."

Elenda whispered: "I'll do it, Sara is taking care of the little princess."

Hearing this, Rhaenyra patted her female companion's shoulder and felt a little relieved.

The maids around the princess are also divided into different levels.

The highest status is naturally the female companion.

The female companions are all girls from aristocratic families and have received a good education.

Elenda is from the Marseille family in the king's territory and is one of the female companions who grew up with her.

Privately, the master and servant have a good relationship.

Rhaenyra sat at the table and suddenly thought: "How are Rhaenyia and Maekar?"

The two children were scared.

Elenda tilted her head and replied, "Miss Renia is still crying in the room, and the little prince went to bed early."

"Hehe, Maika can eat and sleep well."

Reinila smiled helplessly.
