Chapter 948: guardian

Popular recommendation:

The blood of the Dane family has withered, and there seem to be very few peers in Edric's generation, but Edric's joining the Kingsguard does not mean that the Dane family is cut off.

Because these long-standing families are all prosperous, in fact, in addition to Edric, the Dane family still has other heirs, and Edric has a younger brother who is a few years younger than him.

And not to mention that the Dane family also has a branch from High Hidden City. Ser Gerol Dane, known as the 'Dark Star', is an excellent knight.

Geral Dane gave full play to the blood of the Dane family, and his strength is said to be second only to his cousin, the previous generation of dawn sword Arthur Dane.

However, he did not participate in this competition, because in his own words, 'he is not good at fighting, and is better at killing people. ’

Therefore, he rarely participates in this kind of competition, so it is a pity, otherwise it should not be a problem to rush into the top ten with his strength.

The list of all the selected Kings Guards is announced. Naturally, some people are happy and some are worried, and those who are happy are getting what they want. In fact, those who have not been selected have already guessed some of them, but they still have some expectations. After the results come out, Is disappointed.

And after the contest ended, there should have been a ceremony of being sealed and sworn in.

However, because of the affairs of Velas, the ceremony of putting on the white clothes was changed to be held in the Red Fort, and a grand dinner was held, and only some imperial nobles were invited to participate.

At the ceremony, all the newly promoted Kingsguards wore silver-white Mingguang armor, and there was an exquisite crown pattern on their chests.

Then there is no other family's coat of arms on the stomach of the Kingsguard, because it symbolizes that they have abandoned their original family and loyal to the royal family wholeheartedly.

…

At night, Yin Geng Gaoqiu, at the dinner party of the Red Fort.

It is lively and lively here, and gathers all the noble nobles in the empire.

Including the important ministers of the Royal Council, the mother and younger brother of the governor of the north, the governor of the valley Petyr Baelish, the prince of Dorne Tristan Martell and so on.

Now that Prince Doran is fifty-nine and almost sixty years old, his body has been suffering from gout. Er has long since returned to Dorne, accompanied by his father.

The other prince, Tristan, is naturally romantic, like many Dornish people, but he is very kind. Prince Dorne likes the prosperity of King's Landing, and he can't stand the heat and boredom when he returns to Dorne, so he stays in here.

Now the banquet is full of well-dressed and well-dressed VIPs, their expressions are serious, and few of them are whispering, but quietly waiting for the oath ceremony.

"His Majesty."

Then Arya Stark, Brienne Tarth, Gendry, Attis, Prince of Giants, and Edric Dayne all came out.

The five new knights who joined the Kingsguard have all bathed and changed their clothes and dressed neatly. Under the leadership of the palace steward, they learned the etiquette that should be done for a while, as well as the oath and oath.

And they also changed into new clothes and armor, and then knelt down on one knee in front of the Iron Throne, solemnly declaring their oath.

Artis is the last giant in the world besides his parents, so not marrying and not having children is actually a false proposition for him.

Still, Arianne touched Artis' head with her hand, telling him that the Targaryens were still trying to find his people.

If another giantess of the right age can be found in the future, she will personally issue a decree to relieve Artis from the duties of the Kingsguard, allowing him to marry and have children, and reproduce his own offspring.

And the giant prince was naturally moved to tears.

There used to be a huge gap between human and giant civilization, but Artis is different. He has been raised in the Red Fort since weaning. He has completely learned the living habits of human beings, and naturally he has also integrated into the consciousness of human beings. and culture.

And although Arianne said this, she actually did the same, because this is the task that Viserys once explained. The empire has been searching for the traces of other surviving giants for many years, but there is no news so far. There was no good news, so Arianne held little hope for it.

The five new knights who joined the Kingsguard knelt on one knee and declared their oath, and their leader, Mia, the senior female knight who joined the Kingsguard earlier than them, put on white clothes for her oath brothers in person .

Mia was the first female in history, and was of foreign blood, without a noble surname, just a Kingsguard from a mercenary.

And she also has the Valyrian Steel Sword Slaying Dragon, which Viserys personally bestowed. , there are fewer and fewer Valyrian steel swords in this world.

Originally, many people expected the female knight Mia to be a special case in the history of the Kingsguard. It should be unprecedented, and there will be no one since. There will be no women serving as the Kingsguard for a long time in the future.

However, no one thought that Mia was personally canonized as a knight by Viserys and put on a white coat, and became a role model for all women in the empire who hoped to be self-reliant.

Including Arya and Brienne, in fact, Mia was the target of catching up, because she created a precedent for women to serve as the Kingsguard~www.NovelMTL.com~ In fact, there are also Little Rose Margaery, Sansa and other noble ladies who are not good at fighting and killing actually regard Mia as an idol.

However, Mia is not unprecedented, the first and only female Kingsguard in history, she served as a role model, inspired many women to work hard, and her successor will soon follow.

Arya Stark and Brienne Tarth donned white and became the Kingsguard.

It is true that they were selected by Queen Arianne first and took the advantage of being women, but their personal strength is the biggest reason.

The two female knights overcame the physical gap with the male knights and went all the way to the finals. In any case, this shows the ability of the two.

So when Mia put on a white cape for them, Arya was okay, and Brienne's eyes were a little red, but she held back her tears, not wanting to let herself be in the highest light. Always embarrassing.

The other three Kingsguard Dawn Sword Edric Dayne, Gendry, and Artis also put on white clothes, and then stood up from the ground with one hand on the hilt.

"His Majesty."

wow——

All the new white knights put on brand-new white cloaks, and all the imperial nobles in the audience stood up and applauded.

However, at this moment, Arianne, who was sitting on the throne in the middle, turned her head sideways and said suddenly.

"Diana, Helos and Yin Meng."

"come over."

Arianne spoke to the three princes and princesses standing beside them.

"Come and choose a guardian from each of the white knights."
