iron throne of ice and fire

Chapter 73

hum!
When the last slogan on the ring was hung up, it seemed that the air froze for a while.

Sitting on a high place, Green, with an indifferent expression, looked at the more noisy crowd, but lamented that there are many literate people here.

If it were replaced by the Crab Claw Peninsula, most people would not be able to understand it.

All kinds of tricks such as the explainer arranged by Green quietly were of no use, and they all became the atmosphere group.

Green secretly thought it was a pity, if it wasn't for the lack of time, he could still open an off-market market.

………………

The first challenger of the second day stepped onto the ring amidst the din.

Green saw the family crest of a flock of golden cranes on a solid blue background.

Green raised his eyebrows slightly, the Klein family?
The Cranes are one of the Reach Houses whose allegiance is directly to House Tyrell.

Green remembered that Renly Baratheon had established himself as the Queen's Rainbow Guard, and a member of the Crane family served as the Purple Guard.

………………

The long sword in Green's hand was stationed by his side with one hand: "Let's begin, Your Excellency the swordsman from the Clanen family."

The Klein family swordsman remained silent, and swung his sword obliquely towards Green.

clang!
Green drew out his sword to block, and the swords in their hands made a screeching sound of steel rubbing against each other during the wrestling.

It seems that Green, who is serious on the surface because he is competing with sword skills, is picking thorns in his heart.

Another passionate young man with few sword skills.

………………

Yesterday, in order to appreciate the effect, Green usually ended the battle after a dozen rounds.

Today, since Green has started the first stage of taunting the Reach, the number of rounds can be appropriately reduced.

After about eight or nine rounds, Green's sword swing suddenly increased in strength.

The Klein family swordsman, who had just gotten used to the strength of Green's sword swing, was so shocked by the sudden force that his arm went numb, and he almost didn't hold the sword handle.

Before the Klein family swordsman could recover, Green's long sword swiftly struck down again.

The Klein family swordsman had no choice but to bite the bullet and raise his sword to block.

With a clang, the sword in his hand fell, and Green's long sword had already reached the neck of the Klianen family swordsman.

Green withdrew his sword, only glanced indifferently at the Klian family swordsman who had fallen on the ring, and turned to leave.

No warm comfort from Green today.

The swordsman of the Klein family who came back to his senses picked up the long sword, and left the ring sadly with a dejected face.

"Next!"

The second challenger is seven or eight rounds to end the fight.

The third challenger is six or seven rounds to end the fight.

………………

For the subsequent challengers, Green controlled the number of rounds to six to seven rounds.

At dusk, the red sun slowly penetrated into the thin clouds.

Standing in the middle of the ring, Green seemed to be dyed a layer of red gold, a color that belongs to the strong.

The crowd around the ring opened their mouths wide, all with stunned expressions.

The arena fell into an eerie silence.

With a bang, Green, the swordsman they had placed high hopes on, only used a swift sword to make him roll off the ring in embarrassment.

This swordsman's sword skills are well-known in the Reach.

They were thinking that although the previous challengers were all defeated, they could still fight back and forth... Is this person so famous so weak?
A cheated resentment brewed in the crowd.

Taking advantage of this weird silence, Green said coldly: "Continue tomorrow."

After the words fell, Green sighed slightly, shook his head, and left the ring surrounded by Kleber's blue robes.

…………

…………

King's Landing, the Shataya Ladies House at the foot of Rhaenys Hill.

A two-story Sataya shop with a circular tower.

Many of the windows in Sataya's were lead-paneled, and above the door hung an ornate gilt lantern of deep red glass.

Smart Dick came to Sataya's while it was still dark, and called his sister out.

Sister Dick, who had been expressionless all the time, spotted Dick from a distance.

Sister Dick first had a very stiff smile on her face, but as the distance between her and Dick got closer, her smile gradually became more natural.

Sister Dick's voice was full of joy: "Dick, are you here to see me?"

Although Dick had put on new clothes, the stench on his body remained the same.

Dick's younger sister just frowned imperceptibly, she didn't seem to mind at all on the surface, and even took one of Dick's arms very affectionately.

"The golden robe captain you introduced, let me report to the defense team tomorrow."

"Don't worry, I've already said hello."

Dick's eyes dodged: "Tell me, do I want to add my surname tomorrow?"

Dick's sister distanced herself, paused, and took Dick's arm again, her hands trembling uncontrollably: "Brother, what do you want to do?"

"I want to write Dick Kleber tomorrow, so the gold robes won't look down on me as a newcomer. I tried it with the gold robe captain, and no one should care about this. After all, this surname is very strange, as long as I be careful..."

As Dick spoke, his voice gradually became smaller.

Dick noticed that his sister was trembling a little.

Crabb... Dick's sister thought she had completely forgotten the name.

No, she has heard this surname from a guest recently!
………………

"Sister? What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

Sister Dick, who was lost in thought, came back to her senses: "Dick, have you been swallowed by a different ghost? How dare you...you will be hanged!"

"I... If I'm careful... don't cry, I know, I know, I just want to get ahead quickly and take you out of here early!"

"Woo, I'm having a great time!"

Dick shrank his neck, carefully glanced around, and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that no one was paying attention.

"Sister, don't worry, I promise not to mess around! Please, trust me once!"

Dick's younger sister wiped away her tears and said, "Brother, I just don't want you to die...and..."

Sister Dick quietly looked around, lowered her voice and said, "Maybe you will have a better place..."

Dick was not good at hiding the expression on his face, his eyes were full of doubts: "You don't want to tell me, what kind of big shot have you climbed so quickly?"

Dick felt that her sister's beauty could only be regarded as better than ordinary, and that "business" could not suddenly improve.

Sister Dick looked at her brother's pointed face and felt her fists stiffen a bit.

Taking a deep breath, he continued: "The sister who is close to me, she recently climbed up..."

Sister Dick whispered in her brother's ear, "A lord of Lannister is a little devil of Lannister."

"Lan... Lannister?"

For Dick, the golden robe captain introduced by his sister is already a big shot!
Lannister, the Lannister that is all gold?
"A friend of Lord Lannister, with the surname Kleber, he should still be in King's Landing."

What she heard in the chat... The words she never took to heart, because of Dickon's stimulation, she remembered them all.

…………

…………

The next day, the sky was slightly brighter.

Another slogan was added to the arena.

"Swordsmen of the Reach Are Not Men"

　I'm sorry, it's an update today, take a break early, and continue tomorrow!
