"I have to admit, this is one of the best decisions I've ever made."
Jillian did not explain why he said this here, but it made Viserys, the reader, slightly shuddered.
He is now completely immersed in this story, and even feels a little bit like it.
He had a hunch that those who returned the same way might have encountered something even more terrifying.
Wow...
In the silent room, the paper made a soft sound, and Viserys turned to the next page.
And at this time.
Bang bang bang…
There was a knock on the door of the 'maester's room, and the sound was so sudden that Viserys was startled.
The silver-haired boy was interrupted for a moment, raised his head and glanced in the direction of the door, but he was not dissatisfied. He just nodded slightly, and then the person next to him hurried over and opened the door.
"His Majesty."
The person who came in from the door was also a soldier.
"The maester is dead."
He came to tell Viserys of the death of Gillian Lannister, who bled to death after drinking the poisoned drink.
"Um."
Viserys just nodded after hearing this outcome that he had already expected.
However, the soldier did not leave. He hesitated slightly and then spoke again.
"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness the Princess..."
The soldier who came to report then told Viserys that Rhaenys and Daenerys wanted to see him.
Because they already knew about it, but they still didn't know about the maester's death. They didn't believe that the maester really betrayed Targaryen.
Now Rhaenys hurried over and said that she wanted to see him and plead for her teacher.
Because Jillian had taught two girls academically, Viserys had thought of this in advance, and in order to take care of Rhaenys and Daenerys' emotions, he deliberately sent them away when giving them the poisoned wine.
However, Viserys hesitated slightly after hearing the soldier's words, and shook his head to reject Rhaenys's request.
"never mind."
"Let them calm down."
Encountering betrayal is not a very special thing. The more people you have close relationships with, the more likely it will happen. After all, betrayal is one of the most difficult emotions for people to control.
Viserys was used to this in his previous life.
After all, at that time, the Targaryen Tower will collapse, the trees will fall, and the hozens will scatter. No one wants to be buried with Targaryen. This is a normal idea.
Who could have imagined that Viserys would be able to do so many things later, and finally successfully break the situation and turn the crisis into safety.
What's more, the 'maester' has been an enemy from the beginning. He came to avenge his second brother Kevan Lannister.
From the surprise battle on the road six years ago, when Viserys stabbed Kevan in the chest with his sword, to the subsequent tragedy at the Red Keep, the Targaryen family and the Lannister family have long forged a bond.
In a bloody feud, there is no room for maneuver between the two sides.
therefore.
Viserys was not too angry at the maester's 'betrayal', but instead gave him a reminder, reminding him that he still had a lot of blood debts on the other side of the narrow sea that he had yet to recoup.
When Viserys was put on a carriage and fled hastily from King's Landing, he was waiting for the day when he would fight back in the future.
Rhaenys was so young at that time that she has even forgotten the appearance of her father Rhaegar Targaryen and mother Elia Martell.
Not to mention his brother Aegon Targaryen, who is generally believed to have fallen to his death on a wall.
Rhaenys just remembered the names of the three of them repeatedly, remembering who she should hate.
However, this hatred burst out from nowhere.
And Daenerys is even more alienated from the so-called hatred.
Her father, mother, eldest brother, etc. are all just code names to her. From birth to the present, Daenerys has only had her second brother Viserys and Rhaenys, the one who forced her to call her sister.
Therefore, Viserys is the only one who carries the Targaryen family's motivation for revenge.
They don't know anything, that's why they are so naive.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Hearing Viserys' slightly tired voice, the guard looked slightly shuddered, then hurriedly answered, turned around and walked away.
Not far away, a girl with long brown hair stood quietly in front of the tower, looking at the looming lights. Then the guard who walked out of the room came to Rhaenys and shook his head slightly.
"Your Highness the Princess..."
Disappointment was clearly written on Rhaenys's face.
She didn't see the evidence, so she couldn't believe that her teacher had really betrayed Targaryen.
She hoped that Viserys was mistaken.
Although Jillian deliberately wanted to get rid of Viserys, perhaps to hide his identity, he has always been dedicated to the two girls and can be called a good teacher.
Even when investigating the mole inside the castle not long ago, Viserys suspected many people, but it was not until the end that he noticed the maester, because Jillian's acting skills were really almost impeccable.
…
And in the Bachelor's Tower.
After rejecting Rhaenys's plea, Viserys continued to set his sights on Jillian's memoirs.
I just got to the most important part and then I was interrupted.
Next, Jillian and a group of crew members and slaves who wanted money or lives entered the castle shrouded in hazy gray fog.
"As soon as we entered the castle, we saw a garden that had lost all vitality. The flowers had long since withered into loess. There were dead trees lying on the ground and broken pillars. We started searching upward along the corridor. First, there were servants living there.
s room."
"Sure enough, there was a robbery just after entering the castle. A humble slave drew his sword and killed a crew member named Kevin, and then took away the candlestick he got first."
"Kevin... I still recognize him. He was one of the few people who stood up and believed in me at the most critical moment."
"Then a riot broke out, and people began to fight and fight with each other in an orderly manner, without remembering that their biggest enemies were not the same kind around them."
"And this is just a room where servants live."
Jillian's handwriting was a little sloppy at this time, and it seemed that his mood was a little unstable when writing a memory.
And he emphasized the word 'similar', and Viserys didn't know if he cared what he meant.
"Afterwards, we paid a huge price for people to calm down completely, and the candlestick that initially caused the murder fell into my hands by accident."
"I propose that everyone put all the valuable things they find in a bronze chest, sell them together when they return to Volantis, and then distribute them equally."
"After we paid some necessary prices, we finally united and continued to move forward, and then came to the main hall of the castle..."
"However, we haven't found the treasure here yet, but we have found the monster that attacked us..."
"Its figure was shrouded in darkness, somewhat hazy and looming. It looked like a strong man with a stooped back. He seemed to be tasting something."
"Later I found out that he was not afraid of us, but that a human being could just eat enough."
"At this time, I looked through the gap outside the hall and saw what seemed to be three things next to the high throne."
"A sword and armor are hung on the wall behind the throne, and a huge horn is placed on the table..."
