After making up her mind, Rhaenys sent the red-robed witch down and asked the servants to prepare a room for her to live in the castle temporarily.
Everything will be decided after Viserys returns.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Melisandre's request to see the master of Andalus was granted and she bowed slightly to express her gratitude.
Then the woman raised her head and glanced at the three people in the hall, but her eyes focused on Mili for a moment, and then she exited the hall.
"The followers of the Lord of Light are good at practicing fire magic."
After the figure of the red-robed witch disappeared from the main hall, Mili, as a magic consultant, opened her mouth to explain.
"And this red-robed witch who claims to be from Asshai may have magic superior to mine."
The ugly-looking witch didn't hold back at all and directly admitted that the opponent's strength was even more unfathomable.
Later.
Everyone else in the hall had left, leaving Rhaenys sitting alone on the throne.
She drove the others away just to be alone for a while.
The girl raised her bare hands and took off the crown on her head, holding it gently between her hands. Her beautiful black eyes looked at the sunlight coming in from outside the hall, and she seemed a little dazed.
During this time when Viserys was on an expedition to expand his territory, Rhaenys had been under a lot of pressure.
In fact, perhaps no one noticed that Rhaenys's personality was gradually undergoing some changes.
...
However, it didn't last long.
Sunset and moonrise.
On the first night after Melisandre moved into the castle, something unexpected happened.
"what happened?"
"Oh my god, how could this happen?"
The servants whispered and then exclaimed.
Then there were the sounds of chaotic and noisy footsteps, and the castle guards hurried over and sealed off the entire scene.
"quick!"
"Check this side again."
And Rhaenys, who had just fallen asleep and not been for too long, also arrived at the scene surrounded by soldiers.
This is the room for the three baby dragons.
Because they were so noisy, it was impossible to sleep at night with them, so Rhaenys found a new room for the three young dragons to live in.
However, something unexpected happened that night.
When the patrolling guards walked outside this room, they found a burnt corpse lying here. Black smoke was still coming out of her body, and her whole body had been burnt to a crisp.
After subsequent inspection, the identity of the body was finally confirmed to be that of the castle's magical advisor Mirri Maz Duur.
And she was suspected to have been burned to death by a breath of dragon flame from the black dragon Balerion.
But this is just people's speculation. After all, Balerion can't speak, so he can't explain anything.
However, even if it was just a guess, the guards in the castle were looking at the black dragon, which had grown a bit bigger, with vigilance and fear in their eyes.
They were afraid that this guy would suddenly get violent again and hurt the people around him. Although it was a dragon, it was not human, and there was no way to measure its thoughts using human common sense.
"Balerion burned Mirri?"
Rhaenys came to the scene surrounded by soldiers. When she learned what happened specifically, she looked at Balerion who was surrounded by soldiers in the center with a look of disbelief.
"this..."
The girl was wearing a velvet cloak at the moment, and she hurried over without even having time to comb her hair.
"This...is impossible."
Then he whispered in a somewhat unbelievable voice.
"Nothing is impossible in this world, Your Highness."
Bachelor Gunther also hurried over from the bachelor's tower, and he also heard the news.
The young dragon actually burned a man to death, and the maester didn't believe it at first.
How could such a small dragon have mastered jetting dragon flames when it can't even fly well?
However, when he hurriedly came closer, he realized that all this was true, and the person who was burned to death was still an old acquaintance of his.
Mirri has been in Andalos as a magic consultant for five or six years. Like the bachelor, she is a veteran of Andalos. Naturally, the two of them looked down without looking up from each other.
"Dragons are not human after all."
"Maybe it just treats Miri as a piece of food."
Bachelor Gunther came to the scene and looked at Mili's charred corpse, his voice a little sad.
There was a child crying beside him. Mili's son also came to the scene and cried loudly when he saw his mother's burnt body.
The scene suddenly became noisy and chaotic.
"how so?"
Rhaenys also felt a little headache and didn't know how to deal with it.
She didn't want to believe that it was Balerion who actually burned Mirri to death, because she had seen them hatch with her own eyes. They were like three inexperienced children, and they had plenty of food.
How could Mili be burned to death for no reason?
However, whether she wanted to believe it or not, the facts were right in front of her. Balerion might have really burned him to death.
"but..."
And at this time.
The bachelor standing beside him suddenly said.
"Your Highness, where did the red-robed witch who came to the castle during the day go?"
"Um?"
And Rhaenys, who was upset and didn't know what to do, suddenly heard her teacher's words and was slightly startled.
"Master Gunther, what do you want with her?"
To Rhaenys, these are two completely unrelated things.
However, the maester heard Rhaenys's words and shook his head, and reminded him.
"Your Highness, do you still remember what Mili said in the morning? Followers of the Lord of Light are proficient in fire magic."
"And that...Ms. Melisandre, her witchcraft is even more powerful than Miri's."
"She just moved into the castle today, and then Mili was burned to death by fire. As a witch, who can easily burn her to death?"
After the words of Maester Gunther, who was wearing a gray robe, Rhaenys's eyes suddenly widened slightly.
"What?"
"Do you mean..."
Listening to the bachelor's words, the girl seemed to be suspicious of the Red God messenger who had just arrived at the castle today, and suspected that she had used fire magic to murder the castle's magic consultant, Ms. Mili.
However, the bachelor still shook his head slightly and spoke calmly.
"It's just a reasonable suspicion, Your Highness."
"We have no hard evidence to prove that the red-robed witch used magic to murder Ms. Mili."
Hearing her teacher say this, Rhaenys breathed a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that it was because she had allowed the red-robed witch to enter the castle and caused Mili's death, that she would feel guilty in her heart.
However, just when Rhaenys breathed a sigh of relief, the problem came back to her.
Did the black dragon kill anyone?
"But...your highness."
Then the bachelor standing beside him suddenly spoke in a faint voice.
"If we imprison this red-robed witch in the name of murdering Ms. Mili..."
"Then people will believe..."
"Balerion did not kill."
The maester's voice was faint, and Rhaenys's body suddenly shook.
Then he turned around and looked at his teacher in disbelief.
Under the bright lights around him, the bachelor's hands were placed in front of him, his face was uncertain and there was no trace of smile.
