"You don't need to take action yourself! I am willing to fight on your behalf!"
Standing next to the king and queen, the red-haired female knight Mia of the Kingsguard held the dragon-slaying sword in her hand and spoke.
Arianne, who was sitting next to Viserys, also changed her expression. She knew that although her husband had only fought a handful of times, he was extremely proficient in fighting. At the age of sixteen, he easily defeated the so-called Seven Kingdoms one-on-one.
The most evil person, Gregor Clegane, the Mountain, later captured the Giant King.
"my sweetheart"
However, Arianne grew up in the Flowing Water Palace after all. She had never been to the battlefield in person and had never seen Viserys take action. There was still worry in her words.
But Viserys just shook his head and waved his hand casually.
"It doesn't matter."
To him, Robert was not a threat. There was a huge "qualitative" gap between the two people. This gap was like an adult facing a child, or a dragon facing a stag.
"His Majesty."
Then Viserys walked down the trial stand, and his attendant, the auburn-haired boy, took his sword.
Snapped
And Viserys reached out to take the scabbard, pulled it out slightly and took a look at Dusk. The scarlet long sword exuded a cold chill, but when he held the long sword in his hand, there was no such feeling. Instead, it felt warm.
package, and then sheathed the sword.
"I'll put on your armor."
Then Robb Stark continued to speak, and the soldiers of the Unsullied had already brought over the armor that Viserys usually wore.
This is a set of Valyrian steel armor brought back from the Valyrian ruins. It is silver-white and very thin, but its defensive power is extremely amazing. Ordinary swords can cut it without even a scratch.
Not to mention breaking the defense.
However, Viserys has not been involved in a war for a long time, so this set of armor has naturally been put away on the shelf, gathering a lot of dust, and he rarely wears it himself anymore.
"No need."
Viserys shook his head slightly, and then handed the Dusk in his hand back to Robb.
On the other side, Robert Baratheon was putting on his armor with the help of Unsullied soldiers.
Robert is wearing a set of armor of House Baratheon, with the crest of a crowned stag on the chest, and his helmet is an antlered helmet.
Robert once wore this set of armor to fight in the north and south, and killed Rhaegar on the battlefield. However, he later gained weight and couldn't wear it, so he stayed in the Red Keep and was captured.
But now Robert has gone through more than two years of torture, starting with the wildling invasion, then the White Walker War, the Civil War, and being imprisoned. He has also lost a lot of weight, regained some of his youthful appearance, and can once again wear the
This piece of armor.
"His Majesty!"
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
dong dong dong
The surrounding war drums were rumbling, adding to the warm atmosphere. The people and nobles of the seven countries all looked up and watched, cheering and cheering.
How many people in history have seen a duel between kings?
Robert provoked Viserys and challenged him, but as the victor, Viserys could have refused to accept Robert's challenge and directly executed him.
However, Viserys still accepted Robert's challenge and gave him an honorable death, which directly raised the atmosphere of the scene to the extreme.
King Robert put on his armor with the help of the Unsullied soldiers, and the black bug stared coldly into his eyes at close range. There was no fear on the face of Robert Baratheon, who was like a madman.
And Robert also stared at the black bug with a fierce look.
"you will die"
Then Black Bug stared at Robert with cold eyes and said this in broken Common Tongue. He raised his chin slightly and took a step back, nodding to the subordinates behind him.
"Um."
The Unsullied soldiers then stepped forward, handed Robert the warhammer he was accustomed to using, and then turned and left.
Boom
At this moment, the bell at the trial site suddenly rang, and the much-anticipated trial by combat was finally about to begin.
The hustle and bustle of the people of King's Landing and the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms disappeared in an instant. All irrelevant people retreated to the outside. Everyone also closed their mouths and stared at the two people at the scene.
"We are gathered here under the witness of the gods and your lords."
The fat Archbishop on the trial stand stood up tremblingly, and was about to say some prayers before the trial by combat, but was interrupted by Viserys waving his hand.
The horn sounded, and the fat archbishop choked for a moment, but he did not dare to lose his temper at all, so he could only bow and sit down again.
The place suddenly became completely quiet, with only Viserys and Robert Baratheon alone.
Robert was wearing thick black armor, with an antlered helmet on his head, a crowned stag on his chest, and holding a heavy storm hammer.
On the other side, Viserys was not wearing armor, only wearing a light battle robe, a splendid white velvet robe with gold threads, tight leather pants, and a jade belt.
Before the battle began, the attendant handed the sword back to him. He still had black gloves on his hands, and held the sword dusk in one hand.
His long silver-gold hair was freely draped over his shoulders, and his pair of violet eyes were staring at Robert Baratheon quietly, looking very relaxed, while correspondingly he looked like he was facing a formidable enemy.
"Is Viserys going to be okay?"
On the stage, the young Queen of Dorne held her dress tightly with her fingers, her face full of worry.
"Robert looks much stronger than he is."
Viserys' figure doesn't look very strong, and certainly not thin, like Oberyn's, but when he takes off his clothes, you can see his angular muscles.
Robert, on the other hand, is much bigger than him, like a tank.
"Fighting is not about whose muscles are stronger, otherwise the meaning of fighting will be lost."
"Wouldn't it be over if everyone takes off their clothes and competes?"
On the other side, Arianne's uncle Oberyn crossed his legs and spoke calmly.
He is one of the calmest people on the stage, and the same goes for the female knight Mia. Both of them were experienced mercenaries in the past and have extremely rich combat experience. Sometimes it is easy for masters to fight against each other.
You can see the clues just by standing there.
"Look at the two of them standing together, the winner has already been decided."
Viserys's attitude was more calm, while Robert felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. The contrast in attitude between the two was reflected in the contrast of strength on the court, because only the opponent facing each other felt stronger.
The two slowly walked around the field, keeping a certain distance.
"You should have wanted to kill me a long time ago, Robert."
The silver-haired young man looked at Robert with his sword in its scabbard, and then asked abruptly.
