Game of Thrones: Holy Sword of Light

Chapter 16 Rob, the lord is not fighting and killing
When Jon took Arya and Robb to Dawn Castle.

On the merchant ship that came with them, a tall and thin man with a thin figure and a slightly different rough style from the surroundings also disembarked, wearing a black suit and carrying a package on his back. His cheeks were thin, his hair was gray and his eyes were wrinkled. , but a pair of eyes are quite sharp.

Seeing the grand occasion of Fort Dawn, the man was startled, and immediately prepared to come down to have a look.

"My lord, aren't you going to Hard Tun!?"

asked the captain of the merchant ship suspiciously.

"Where is this place!?" The man did not answer the captain's words, but observed the preliminary handicraft processing workshops that were sprouting in the entire Dawn Fort. A handicraft workshop is tantamount to believing in ghosts...

Oh no, there are ghosts in this world.

His name is Cobain.

He believes in the existence of magic, and he himself has studied many forbidden techniques in the academy.

It's all about his teacher...

His teacher, Maester Wallis, was also a maester who believed in magic. Several years ago, he took a Pentos merchant ship to Harden beyond the Wall. Mr. Liss lived among the free folk as a physician and advisor, under the protection of Chief Gorm the Man-Wolf.

Unfortunately, when Werewolf Gorm was killed in a drunken fight, Mr. Wallis found him in danger and fled back to Oldtown. Three Years With Witches".

This book caused an uproar in the Academy City, and Wallis was also criticized by the Grand Masters in the Academy City, saying that he was promoting heresy, but the content of the book had a great influence on Cobain.

Because a lot of the content was dictated by Mr. Wallis and written by Coben...

It's a pity that some people in the Academy City imprisoned Mr. Wallis to correct his "heretic" ideas. The bachelors in Old Town don't admit magic at all, and witches and other things are all denounced as heresy.

So this time, taking advantage of the lax supervision, Cobain climbed aboard the merchant ship and prepared to go to Difficult Town.

Looking for his lost teacher, Wallis, because when he was last seen, he was looking for a merchant ship to Hardwood...

Yes, although the free folk and savages in the north are not allowed to go south, and the night watchmen also strictly control the smuggled goods merchants, in fact, the merchant ships of the free city-state of Pentos on the other side of the narrow sea have already started trading outside the Great Wall. All kinds of furs and special products, brought back to Pentos to earn huge profits, and sold sugar, salt, and the special product of Pentos, wine.

The second is slaves. Free city-state slavery is rampant, and Beyond the Great Wall is a natural source of slaves...

"Bachelor Qyburn, this is Fort Dawn, the territory of Jon Wright knights, he is a generous man, the mountain people here call him 'good-hearted' Jon, he is rich, and he has formed a caravan, why, You want to stay here instead of going to Hard Tun?"

asked the merchant captain from Pentos.

"I... want to take a look here..." Cobain thought he was wrong, and blinked his eyes. The protector of his teacher Wallis, the chief of Hardwood, Wolf Gorm, is dead. Go to Hardwood, and It doesn't necessarily make him feel better, if he can't find a teacher, he might die at the hands of those savages outside the Great Wall, but here...

Cobain firmly believed in the travelogue with witches and magic written by his teacher, and he also had some experience in the study of witchcraft and magic. Cobain felt that he seemed to have more confidence in the hands of this Jon Wright knight If you have the opportunity to use your strengths, you will be able to verify some of your conjectures... some dangerous experiments.

"If you disembark here, the boat fee will not be refunded to you!"

Said the captain slyly.

"up to you."

Cobain left a sentence and set foot on the shore with his package. In Seal Bay, a desolate place in the north, there is such a gathering point, which is almost like magic. Now he just wants to know, this Jon Wright What kind of character is a knight! ?
……

Inside Fort Dawn.

Rye bread, oatmeal bread with sea salt, strawberry and blueberry jam, cream of mushroom soup, venison stew with onions and potatoes, served with fresh raspberries, sweet mead, grilled seal meat, honey roasted auk, salmon burger, yes Today's dinner.

Although the room is small, it is enough for several people to eat.

Jon smiled and introduced to Arya how to eat salmon burgers, while Rob took out a hundred gold dragons funded by Ed Stark.

"Jon..."

"This is what your father gave you."

Rob hesitated to speak.

"You wrote to your father earlier about what you could do with seal fat, soap. My father didn't know much about it, but he gave me carte blanche to represent the Starks."

Rob held his head proudly.

"Thank you, Rob."

Jon smiled lightly.

"Believe me, the Stark family will benefit for a long time. The hundred golden dragons, I count your Stark family has [-]% of the shares. There are a lot of fat seals here, and there are also a very considerable number of whales. Soap The business will be very big, and we have recently discovered some methods of raising seals, which are completely sustainable and recyclable, but I am a little short of manpower..."

"Father has ordered that you can recruit free people from the mountains in the Stark family's self-domination!"

Rob said again.

"Brother Jon, will there be endless ice cream if you join your caravan!?" Arya was studying how to eat hamburgers, and raised her head when she heard this and asked.

"Even if you don't join, I can let you eat enough, but you can't eat too much of that thing, if you eat too much... girls will have a stomachache."

"Stomach pain? Why?"

"Uh, children don't ask about adults' matters!"

Both Jon and Rob who Arya asked this question froze. Jon has a ghost in his heart. That thing is made of thousand-year-old ice, and the hygiene condition is worrying. Jiajia can't eat too much, or the chrysanthemum will hurt...

And Rob thought Jon was talking about a girl's menstruation...

"Okay, let's talk about your territory next, are you going to capture Sgarles Island!?"

"Correct!"

Jon nodded.

The two quickly changed the subject, lest Arya, a curious baby, continue to ask questions...

"I brought not only [-] citizens, but also [-] fighters this time. They are the most elite northern warriors and can help you!"

Rob raised his chin slightly again. It could be seen that he was very proud of the fighting power of the northern warriors. One northern warrior could fight against three or four southerners.

"That would be great."

"Why don't you find some mercenaries!? I mean, you seem to have some goods..." Rob asked with a slight frown.

Jon shook his head slightly, and he looked at Rob meaningfully.

"Conquering the enemy's body is just a bad idea. Conquering the enemy's heart is the strongest. I will not only crush the enemy's body, but also crush the enemy's heart!"

"The people of the northern border are like running wolves. They are all rebellious. If I hadn't defeated them with my own strength, they would not have surrendered. Even if I could suppress them for a while, they would not be able to suppress them forever. Mercenaries are only external forces after all. These mountain freemen occupy the majority of my territory, if I can't completely defeat their bodies and hearts, how can they surrender!?"

Jon's words made Rob nodded thoughtfully.

"Although there are thousands of people on Sgeers Island, they are all untrained free citizens. If there are a hundred elite fighters, they can be defeated in one charge."

said Rob.

"That's the truth. However, to conquer these free people, you need to conquer them with lofty moral character, perfect will, and my charisma!"

"Rob, being a lord is not about fighting and killing. Being a lord is..."

Jon said seriously.

Rob was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Charisma? Do the free folk know what charisma is..."

At this moment, Elder Black Nose rushed in happily.

"Lord Jon, it's bad, it's bad!"

He trotted all the way, and walked in panting, with a serious face, sighed and said to Jon: "My lord, the Magnars on Skeels Island are really, too, eh..."

"They say the Magnars will never surrender!"

"Oh!?"

Jon frowned, as he expected, the Wilderness Beyond the Wall was stubborn and stubborn, and it was not easy to subdue them.

"They, they also put forward a condition..."

"What conditions!?"

Jon asked.

"The Magnars will never surrender unless they have food and shelter..."
