At this moment, Rhaenys appeared in the side door of the throne room at some unknown time, quietly observing the battle. The nobles of the Seven Kingdoms who were concentrating on the duel were slightly startled and then hurriedly saluted.
"Um."
But the brown-haired girl just nodded implicitly and then climbed up the steps.
"Your Highness."
Oberyn, who was sitting on the Iron Throne with his legs crossed, saw Rhaenys approaching and quickly put down his legs. He stood up from the Iron Throne, straightened his clothes and bowed slightly.
"uncle."
Rhaenys turned her head and looked at the two men who were fighting fiercely below.
"Is he the one who killed my father?"
Robert was imprisoned in the Red Keep for such a long time, but Rhaenys never visited this man because she was afraid that she would be tempted to order his death.
"It's him."
Oberyn stood in front of the Iron Throne and nodded slightly.
"Will he die?"
And Rhaenys took off the deerskin gloves on her hands, and then asked without hesitation.
Although she is currently learning combat skills from the female knight, she is not as sharp-minded as Oberyn, a master in the gladiatorial arena.
Oberyn turned his head and took a look at the situation on the scene. King Robert's physical strength was gradually declining. He looked a little behind on the scene, but he was unyielding and even seemed to be getting more courageous as he fought.
Then he shook his head and came to a point of view that was completely opposite to the many battle-experienced nobles of the Seven Kingdoms present.
"Unfortunately, I'm afraid not."
It is not that these nobles of the Seven Kingdoms have no combat experience, but their combat experience is often on the battlefield, and the arena is a one-on-one battle on limited terrain, and various methods can be used.
In fact, King Robert, a fierce general on the battlefield, has some natural disadvantages in a one-on-one duel, but with his rich combat experience, he can still cope with it.
The heir to Stonehelm City has a good foundation, a solid foundation, and has the qualifications to become a member of the Kingsguard. However, he still lacks combat experience when facing King Robert.
"Go to hell!"
Before Oberyn could finish his words, Balon Swann below seized the perfect opportunity, roared angrily, and wanted to stab King Robert to death with a spear, but he did not realize that this was a trap set by the other party.
Balon's father, Count Gulian Swann of Stonehelm, and his friends even raised their hands and were ready to applaud, but unexpectedly, the bloody scene that followed directly shattered their eyeballs.
"Boy, it's too early for you to be happy!"
Robert Baratheon showed a fierce look on his face, and his words were as cold as the cold wind. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time. His thick arms grabbed Balon Swann's spear, the heir to Stonehelm City.
Panicked, I tried to pull away but failed.
Then, before Balon Swann could throw away his spear and escape, in his horrified eyes, Robert swung the heavy warhammer with one hand that others could barely lift with both hands, and hit him hard.
on the cheek.
puff
There were no flashy skills, just thick brute force and a simple hammer. The Storm Hammer hit Balon Swann's face like it hit a watermelon.
Relaxed and freehand.
The hard skull of the heir to Stonehelm City shattered in an instant, and the eyeballs flew out of the sockets. Blood red and brain matter were mixed together, and instantly splashed on the face of the nearest noble, and sprinkled on the ground and the stone pillars of the throne room.
, the half-shattered headless corpse fell down.
The air was slightly silent for a second.
"ah"
The next moment, screams rang out in the throne room, and there was chaos. The nobles whose faces were sprayed with blood and brains screamed like roosters.
Gulian Siwen, Count of Stonehelm City, looked extremely ugly. He did not expect that the turn of events would come so suddenly, and that his only remaining son would die here.
Then he turned around with a livid face and pushed away the crowd, leaving the throne room without waiting for the final verdict.
On the steps of the throne room, Oberyn's words had just finished. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but shrugged his shoulders slightly.
"It seems Robert Baratheon can live a little longer."
The brown-haired girl next to him held the dark sister at her waist with one hand, stroking the hilt of the sword, and watched the bloody scene with helpless eyes, the expression on her face unchanged.
"Very good."
After the baptism of several wars, the young girl no longer feels intolerable to her enemies, and Oberyn was slightly startled when he heard Rhaenys's words.
"Um?"
"This way I can have the opportunity to execute him with my own hands."
"Use this sword."
Rhaenys pulled out a Valyrian steel sword, and the bright sword light illuminated the dark Iron Throne. This sword was given to Rhaenys after Viserys returned to King's Landing.
"Viserys gave me this sword so that I could avenge myself."
Tread
Rhaenys then turned around and left the messy throne room. Oberyn stood there looking at the girl's back for a long time without saying anything.
Two soldiers of the Unsullied came forward and dragged away the body of Balon Swann, cleaning up the blood on the ground. Robert Baratheon was also shackled again, without resisting, and was escorted back to the prison.
in dungeon
There have been so many major events in Westeros recently that people have no time to focus on other parts of the world, except for the merchants coming and going.
The world is turbulent every day. The Targaryen army retakes the Iron Throne and unites the Seven Kingdoms. On the other side, the Dothraki Sea is unified by Mengo Khal, who never speaks.
The bloody battle on the grassland lasted for several months, and finally ended with Mengo Khal's Khalasar defeating all the tribes.
The Dothraki have had several cases of unification in history, but each time a tyrannical Kaa suppressed all parties, eventually becoming a nightmare for surrounding civilizations.
When the Dothraki Sea was unified, there was still a fierce civil war in Westeros, and all the kingdom's attention was focused here.
The First Legion stationed in the continent of Essos deployed troops to guard and prevent the Steppe Knights from appearing in the hinterland of the Free Trade City and launching a surprise attack.
Even letters for help from Kohol and Novos came like snowflakes, but they were all ignored by Bessie Joyce.
Everyone thought that after the Dothraki Sea was unified, their scimitar would be pointed at the rich trading city-states. However, they did not expect that the intelligence came out and the endless Dothraki began to advance towards the east on their war horses.
What's in the East?
Nobody knows.
The east of the Skeleton Mountains is full of mystery. Although merchants from Yuhai occasionally come, they still cannot solve the mystery in people's hearts.
