Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 23 Little Beggar

The bustling city of King's Landing is not friendly to those who have nothing.

The first day was fine.

As soon as the time comes to night, the problem of sleeping is immediately put in front of you.

Anywhere that looks good requires clean clothes and a heavy purse.A run-down hotel needs copper plates.

And you don't.

Sleep on the street, open space or corridor?
What do you think.

Once discovered by the golden robes patrolling day and night, those guys will not be polite, and they may be directly beaten to death.

Your only option is to curl up in the corner of a flea nest, preferably with a gang of beggars.

But even so, you have to always be on guard against other people's stealing attacks.People who have nothing can do everything.

By the way, never get sick or get hurt.

Mosquitoes, heat, and your companions can smell debilitating scents, and will reveal their darkest, darkest side to you.

If you are lucky enough to get through this, congratulations, you can consider finding a stable source of food.

A good place for begging is not something you, a rookie, can go to.

The porridge and bread given by the church on behalf of God are not enough for so many people in the flea nest.

If you rely on this method alone to survive, you will either be too hungry to walk under the sun after a few days, or you will be completely buried out of the sun by your "companions".

Of course, you can also try to earn money and work, so as to completely get rid of the status of a beggar.

Although the easy and pleasant work is not your turn, you can also earn 1 copper star every day by working hard at the warehouse dock, that is, 16 copper plates.

A piece of black bread mixed with stones is only sold for 1 copper plate.

Two sticks a day can barely survive, and four or five sticks are enough for hard work.

16 copper plates, 16 loaves of bread, what a meager but heavy figure.

But even that is only theoretical.

The illegitimate son of a prostitute has experienced more than half a month of suffering, and finally realized that reality is only crueler than people imagined.

That Throne Hall trial threw him into a veritable hell.

He lost his only support.

When he went out from the gate of the Red Castle, he lowered his head firmly, for fear that he would accidentally see his mother among the rows of heads with gunpoints that he used to admire.

Fortunately or unfortunately, the gold robe guarding the gate of the Red Keep returned his knife, and only took a golden dragon as a reward.

He is penniless.

He tried to go back to the brothel he loathed and couldn't live without, but he was ruthlessly kicked out the door within a few breaths.

He survived for two days with only two friends, but was then abandoned.

Then he went looking for work all over the city, until he ended up as a docksider.The pier is the pier, what else can I pick.

But he didn't expect that working as a coolie would be so complicated and dark.

16 copper coins a day is simply out of reach.

First, when paying money, even if there is no mistake in a day's work, the manager will deduct 2 copper coins, saying that it is a loss fee, and it will be even more serious if there is a mistake.

Then there's the gang at the docks.

They who claimed to protect the safety of the dock workers opened their mouths halfway.With the sword and fist in front, who would dare not give it?

At this time, there are still 7 copper plates left, which is an auspicious number.

He named each of them the Seven - Father, Mother, Warrior, Maiden, Blacksmith, Crone, Stranger.

There are a lot of catches at the pier, but they are much more expensive than black bread, and he can only look at them with greedy eyes.

Entering the city from the pier, the golden robes worn by the city gate guards are very dazzling. They also need a little "respect", which is half.

How much is half of seven?

He knelt down and kowtowed in public and begged bitterly.

"Have mercy, my lord, have mercy..."

The guards sometimes laughed and enjoyed it, and generously let him enter the city.

Sometimes they were not very happy, stabbing the scabbard with such force that it would kill him, and then snatched all the copper plates from him.

Sometimes, they jokingly asked for a copper coin.

He will present the Stranger.

Stranger, take them away earlier, they do not belong to the world, they should live in the fiery lava, the seven hells.

He can only comfort himself, at least it is better than the beggar in the flea nest.

until a week ago...

A silver deer jingle bell rolled down at his feet, and the little beggar immediately threw the memories of just now to the sky.

Silver deer!Seven Bronze Stars!So many copper plates! !

"May the old and new gods bless you! Thank you for your reward, you are a kind and good man!!"

The little beggar kowtowed in excitement.

He was already thinking about how to hide this huge wealth, but he couldn't take the silver deer back to the flea nest, that would be courting death.

The master who rewarded the silver deer said, "A lord wants to see you."

The little beggar slowly raised his head.

A man in his thirties with an ordinary face and calm eyes was standing in front of him.

……

In the remote and uninhabited alleyway, Joffrey was listening to Tyrion introducing the experience of the chosen boy for more than half a month.

"...Afterwards, the gangsters at the pier took a fancy to the knife he was carrying. Unexpectedly, he refused to give in, and instead drew the knife and stabbed two of them."

Tyrion admired the boy's courage a little bit, but also felt that he was too impulsive.

"He fled back to the city, and no one hired him to work anymore, so he had to be a beggar for more than a week until now."

Joffrey was satisfied.It's good not to give in, otherwise it will be abolished.

A small voice came.

An unremarkable man walked into the alley with a thin boy.

Joffrey watched the boy silently.

Tyrion plays the role of "the lord".

"Little guy, don't be nervous, there is just one thing you can help with, what do you think?"

"Just as the master orders."

The boy bowed awkwardly, lowered his head slightly to glance at the "adult" who was shorter than himself, and then fixed his eyes on Joffrey.

Unnamed luxurious fabrics, bright and complicated red and gold patterns set off the embarrassing face, one looks like a nobleman of noble birth.But most importantly, he had seen this young adult in the throne room.

He recalled a lot in an instant, and his lips became tighter and tighter.

law!Bullshit law!
Tyrion felt the boy's ups and downs.

"Want to take revenge? After losing your mother and falling into such a situation, who do you hate the most?"

The teenager thought of that disgusting guy, but he had already killed him with his own hands.The guy's wife?Pier Gang?Gold robe?Beggars?brothel?A face-changing friend?
He has many candidates, but the last figure in his mind is the cold-blooded old man standing upright in the throne room.

He knew the fellow's name, Stannis!

Joffrey saw the fire in his eyes.

After a brief unequal transaction, Joffrey attached a strong rune image to the boy's knife, and gave the boy the mirror images of the strong rune and the fire rune.

The secret personnel who had been silent all this time took the boy away quietly.

The alleyway was silent again.

Looking at the alley for an unknown amount of time, Tyrion suddenly asked.

"You have so much confidence in him?"

Joffrey shrugged.

"All I know is that he has no other choice but to pour out all his rage on the target."

Tyrion said nothing more, and he understood why.

That's right, the young man who was approached was bound to die.What can this little guy do?

A beggar, even if he successfully informs, no one will believe him, and he will not be able to escape if he runs away.The greatest resistance he can do is to do nothing and struggle to wait for death to come.

But will he do it?
Let go of the biggest enemy you can think of?

Tyrion sighed.

Stannis, you are an unlovable fellow.
