The atmosphere at the Winterfell dinner was quite lively. Even though a few people were sad, the overall atmosphere was still dominated by joy and excitement as Robb was elected King of the North.
Robb had always disliked the theme dinners in the north where rough men competed for wine. However, as a king, he had to force a smile and cheer loudly for the winner of the competition.
However, being able to eat Chinese delicacies that he has improved is more or less a comfort.
Robb, who has been staying in the north, sometimes looks forward to seeing the luxurious dinners of the great nobles in the south, filled with beautiful women.
The dinner lasted until late at night, and it was impossible for Robb, who was greatly out of shape, to get drunk with these ales.
The drunken lords, the servants standing by will help them return to their rooms. Robb walks out of the banquet hall and returns to the inner castle with Xue Feng, who is lying at the gate, having already eaten and drank.
As soon as Bloodwind returned to the inner castle of Winterfell after a long absence, he went straight to his room in the corner of the first floor.
Woohoo!
Robb, who was walking behind him, suddenly heard Bloodwind standing at his door and letting out a threatening low roar.
Robb hurried forward and saw at a glance that Nymeria and the Lady were comfortably occupying the magpie's nest and lying in Bloodwind's wolf den.
It turned out that after Bloodwind accompanied Robb south, they were temporarily kept in Bloodwind's room without the care of Arya and Sansa.
Robb couldn't help laughing, and turned to look at Bloodwind, telling him that he would rearrange their rooms tomorrow.
While he was staring at the bloody wind, Robb suddenly noticed some changes in the words "blood" in his field of vision.
In the blood character display, after the two names of the wolves, a plus sign appeared like attributes.
This discovery made Robb, who had 67 blood points and was about to lose control, overjoyed. He immediately tried to choose the plus sign after Nymeria's name.
A small stream of red mist rose up from Robb's body and directly submerged into Bloodwind's body. Then, after being transferred by it, it was released again and poured into Nymeria's body.
Robb could clearly see that the red mist after the transfer was much thinner than at the beginning.
Although he couldn't see the data of Nymeria and Lady, since there was this new change in the blood contract, it could solve Robb's urgent need.
Directly investing 30 blood bond points into each of them, leaving 7 blood bond points on his body, Robb suddenly felt refreshed.
As for Blood Wind, if you can continue to add attribute points in the future, what should you do if you don’t have blood contract points?
Robb, who will lead his army southward soon, is not worried at all about how to obtain blood bond points.
Just when Robb was feeling happy after solving a hidden danger in his heart, Clay, who had been arranged by him in advance, brought over the manservant who had fed Bloodwind since childhood.
"Have you been taking care of Nymeria and the lady for more than a month?"
After the blood bond point infusion just now, Robb tried to touch Nymeria and Lady, and found that they no longer resisted, but began to get close to Robb. He stroked Lady's soft wolf back and asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Because I have experience in taking care of the Bloodwinds. So, Mrs. Caitlin asked me to take care of them."
Upon hearing the question, the manservant nodded and bowed his head and answered.
"I remember that it was you who took care of Xue Feng from childhood to adulthood, thank you for your hard work.
Do you know Toren?"
Robb nodded, first said thanks, and then changed the subject without warning.
"Lord Torun? He often comes to the inner castle. I have met him occasionally, but how can we servants be lucky enough to know him?"
The manservant was stunned for a moment, and then answered very naturally.
"There is no flaw at all, you are truly a talent!
However, your performance is too calm!"
Seeing the manservant's flawless answer, Robb sent a message directly to Xue Feng beside him.
Ouch!
Bloodwind roared, and Nymeria and the ladies beside Robb immediately jumped up and quickly rushed to the manservant. They bared their teeth and roared menacingly at him.
"If you don't want to feed them one last time, just tell me what I want to know!"
Looking at the manservant, Robb spoke in a calm tone and said very threatening words.
"Your Majesty, if I answer truthfully, can you let me live?"
The manservant looked at this scene where it was clear that he knew his identity. He smiled bitterly and still answered calmly.
"It depends on your answer. If I am satisfied, you will not only survive, but also get a job from me.
By the way, what’s your name?”
"My name is Hal, Your Majesty!"
Hal, who had served the Stark family for several years and knew the Stark honor well, told Robb his name and then said,
"Before, I was responsible for collecting information about the Stark family, placing it in a designated location, and then conveying it to the stable master who was captured by you.
Later, I received instructions to take charge of the liaison with Toren Karstak.
He has been providing me with information since you woke up, and I relayed the information through the spies in the bachelor's tower."
"In other words, the spies in the bachelor's tower must know where the information is sent?"
"Yes."
"Have you obtained the information from our military meeting today?"
"No, I have no chance to get close, Your Majesty."
"Okay, I'll tell you now, and you can forward the information."
…
The next day, White Harbor, Newcastle.
The elderly Bachelor Theomo hurriedly walked toward the Earl's study with his old body hunched over.
In his hand, he held a raven letter.
When he pushed open the Earl's study, in addition to Earl Wyman, there were several fully armed guards standing inside, as well as the commander of the White Harbor garrison, Ser Marlon Manderly.
"Lord Wyman, if there is a raven letter from Winterfell, I will send it to you immediately."
Bachelor Theomo didn't think too much. He held up the letter in his hand and stepped forward to hand it to Count Wyman.
"No need to give it to me, you should have read it, just read it!"
Count Wyman, who looked serious, shook his head and signaled that he did not need to step forward to hand over the letter.
"This letter is very strange, just one word... yes!"
Siomer had a strange look on his face and said.
Upon hearing this, Earl Wyman nodded, and suddenly asked him: "Scholar Siomer, how many years have you been in White Harbor?"
"About thirty years, Your Majesty."
Siomer thought for a moment and answered.
After hearing his answer, Count Wyman's eyes showed a look of reminiscence, and he spoke with some emotion.
"Has it been such a long time? Time flies by so fast!
Yes, I already have two lovely granddaughters!
Well, since you have served our family for so many years, I will grant you a merciful death!"
"Uncle... Lord Earl, what do you mean by this?"
Hearing this, Xiomo trembled all over and asked with a trembling voice.
"We are all decent people, now, you should stop pretending to be yourself.
Two days ago, His Majesty Robb quietly told me that there was a Lannister spy line in the north and asked me if I had any clues.
I immediately told him that you are a very questionable target.
Now, the raven letter in your hand is the confirmation of your identity."
"Haha, Lord Weiman, you have never truly trusted me in all these years!"
Hearing this, Siomer slowly straightened his body, which had been hunched over, and opened his mouth to answer. At this time, his voice no longer trembled as before.
"There is no way, who made you come from Lannister Port! I have never had a good impression of Lannister."
"Ma Long, the rest is up to you."
"As you command, Lord Weiman!"
Siomer looked at the White Harbor soldiers approaching him with a calm expression. Fortunately, he had already sent the last information in advance using a raven.
