Game of Thrones: Dawn of Justice

Chapter 13 Seven Gods, Is This the Holy Sword?
"Okay, but I advise you not to do it."

Facing Robert's impatient gaze, Garen nodded, untied the "Maid of Justice" from behind, placed it on the long table, and then pulled the "Maid of Justice" out of the scabbard.

"Yin——"

The crisp sound of swords rang out, and a stunning rainbow appeared in the eyes of Robert and Eddard.

The moment the two saw the sword of the Maid of Justice, they were stunned.

It's so beautiful!

The sword, emitting a faint green glow, looked like flowing water or burning flame, without a single flaw!
There seemed to be a faint orange line at the edge of the sword, like the morning light, as if it could cut through the air.

The metal guard and ivory hilt perfectly enhance the beauty of the sword, making it low-key yet noble.

Robert's mouth dropped open, and Eddard held his breath.

Both of their eyes were fixed on the "Maid of Justice", as if they had seen the most beautiful scenery in the world and were reluctant to look away.

Robert swallowed hard. Even though he had heard that the holy sword Garlon had found was real, he still felt indescribably shocked at this moment.

In an era when magic has become extinct, seeing this sword is no less than witnessing magic with your own eyes.

He now even had doubts as to whether the Seven Gods, whom he usually did not revere, really existed.

"Garlon, can I try?" Robert asked panting.

For men, "Maid of Justice" is definitely the top toy.

After hearing Robert's words, Ed, who usually had a stern face and was very reserved, even had a hint of excitement in his eyes. To be honest, he also wanted to play.

Garen shook his head and smiled faintly: "I advise you not to be so stubborn."

Garlon placed the "Maid of Justice" on the long table and did not stop her, but only gave her verbal admonitions.

Robert and Eddard both leaned in to take a closer look at the Maid of Justice, and the more they looked, the more envious they became.

Md, so fucking beautiful!

I really want one!
Robert suddenly felt that the fine steel sword specially customized for him by his adoptive father Arryn last year was no longer useful.

Ed also felt that the giant sword Hanbing, which his father usually treasured so much, seemed much inferior to the holy sword in front of him.

Robert was stubborn after all. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, wanting to grab the "Maid of Justice" from the hilt and swing it a few times.

But as soon as his fingers touched the hilt of the sword, he immediately pulled it back, grimacing and gasping.

He looked at his right hand fingers and saw burnt red marks as if they had been touched by a branding iron.

Fortunately, he withdrew it quickly and it was not serious. He will be fine in a few days.

Looking at his expression, Garen couldn't help but shake his head. It was indeed useless to say anything.

Robert scratched his head in embarrassment. He had indeed heard the rumor that no one else could touch Garlon's holy sword.

Eddard looked at the Maiden of Justice and felt a little itchy, but after looking at Robert, Garlon and Earl Selwyn, he finally held back.

"Garlon, how did you find it? Could this really be the holy sword 'Morning Light Garlon' bestowed upon it by the pure maiden in the legend?"

Robert put his hot finger in his mouth and sucked it twice, then looked at Garen with an incredulous look on his face and asked.

"I just discovered it by chance." Garen smiled. "I don't know if it's a weapon bestowed by the Seven Gods, but it's very sharp. Who cares if it is or not?"

Robert smacked his lips, his expression twisted.

Damn, I’m so envious!

"Galon, this doesn't look like it's made of Valyrian steel."

Ed also spoke at this time, his eyes still filled with amazement.

Garen nodded.

Swords made of Valyrian steel have very distinctive characteristics - the blade has a dark gray or almost black metallic luster, and the surface has ripples or water-wave textures.

The blade of the "Maid of Justice" sword is green with blue in color and emits a faint glow, just like the top-grade luminous weapons in the game. You can tell at a glance that it is several grades higher than Valyrian steel.

Garen remembered that in the legendary weapon column, the evaluation of "Maiden of Justice" was "Gold", so he thought there might be other evaluations such as "Blue" and "Purple".

"Ser Goodwin says my sword is much sharper than Arthur Dayne's Dawn."

"..."

After hearing Garlon's "statement", Robert and Edgan were immediately silenced.

The two looked at each other speechlessly.

Because let alone "Dawn", neither of them even had a Valyrian steel sword.

The Baratheon family rose to prominence relatively late and was not ancient enough, so they did not inherit the Valyrian sword.

The Stark family does have it, and it is the famous "Ice", but that belongs to Eddard's father, Duke Rickard, and will be passed on to his brother Brandon in the future. He has no chance at all.

One of them was fourteen and the other fifteen years old, which was the transitional stage when boys grew into men. They were extremely eager for a legendary weapon.

And now, Garlon's "maid of justice" directly stabbed the two of them in the heart.

It's so fucking Versailles.

"How sharp is it?"

Robert couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm...it can easily cut through plate armor."

Garen said.

"what?"

Suddenly, Robert and Eddard's eyes widened.

"Galon, are you kidding me?"

Robert's expression was somewhat serious, full of disbelief.

Garen smiled, of course he wasn't joking.

Two years ago, his strength of 3.12 was enough to almost cut through plate armor. Now his strength is as high as 8.76. He only needs to hold the sword with one hand and swing it with all his strength to cut through the plate armor.

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you after lunch."

Garen said. Actually, he doesn't usually do this.

But the ones before him were Robert and Ned, the two main characters in the future War of the Usurper.

Garlon needs to demonstrate his abilities and value in front of them so that he can gain their support in the War of the Usurper and gain more credit and a bigger share of the pie.

"it is good!"

Robert became impatient.

He felt that this trip to Tas Island was a good decision, it was truly an eye-opener!

Ed was also shocked.

What was the concept of cutting through plate armor? Even their Ice couldn't do it. At most, it could only leave some scars on the plate armor.

While the three of them were chatting, the servants had almost prepared the food and wine for lunch.

The meal was very sumptuous, with roast wild boar with honey and cloves, crispy roast venison leg with blackberry sauce, creamy stewed mushrooms and onions, salted herring with sour cream, roast pigeon stuffed with apples and raisins, a cheese platter with honeycomb honey, and so on.

There were also many kinds of wine, including strong red wine from Dorne, golden wine from the Arbor, Tyrosh pear brandy from Essos, green mead from Myr, and dark beer from Volantis.

Although Robert was only 15 years old, he had already started drinking and he praised the drinks on Tas Island.

"Lord Selwyn, I've come to Tarth not only to visit you, Garen, and Brienne, but also to invite you to Storm's End tomorrow to celebrate my brother Renly's nameday, as instructed by my father. If you don't go, my father will blame me!"

When the wine was at its peak, Robert stood up, holding the glass, and said with a smile while toasting Earl Selwyn.

Garen nodded secretly beside him.

So Robert is a man of both substance and refinement.

He is very good at speaking polite words and has emotional intelligence when doing things. His personality wins the favor of many people.

In the original movie, he was more in a bad state. He actually knew everything, but was just pretending to be stupid.

But Ed is different. He knows nothing and is simply fooled by everyone.

"Okay, don't worry. I'll take Garen, Brienne, and you to Storm's End tomorrow."

Lord Selwyn smiled, raised his glass, and drank it all in one gulp with Robert.

The luncheon was very enjoyable.

Garen also drank some wine with Robert and Eddard.

It's all nonsense that minors are not allowed to drink.

Drinking once in a while wasn't a big deal. And whether it was due to his strong constitution or his legendary bloodline, Garlon felt he could hold his liquor quite well. If he let loose, he could probably get three Roberts drunk.

After eating and drinking, it was already noon.

Lord Selwyn ordered his servants to take Robert and Eddard back to their rooms to rest.

Around evening, Robert had almost rested enough, so he called Eddard and went to find Garlon. He wanted Garlon to take them for a walk and let them see the sharpness of the "Maid of Justice".

Garlon had no objection, so he took the two of them and some followers out of the castle and came to the Shenmu Forest.

"rub!"

Arriving at the Godswood, Garlon casually waved the "Maid of Justice".

Along with a flash of green sword light, a dead tree broke and fell down with a creaking sound.

Robert and Eddard were both shocked by this scene.

isn't it?
A dead tree as thick as a waist was cut in half with one sword?

Robert and Eddard looked at each other as if they had seen a ghost.

They were in Eagle's Nest, chopping weeds with branches, that was about the same, right?

Seeing their shocked expressions, Garlon smiled and came to the huge wooden stake where he had first tested the sharpness of the Maid of Justice.

At this time, Robert and Eddard also saw several smooth slanted fractures on the huge wooden stake.

The two of them suddenly felt their scalps tingling.

Could this be something Garlon cut with the "Maid of Justice"?

Is this right?
Even the sharpest axe cannot achieve this effect.

However, while they were both in a daze, Garlon held the sword in one hand and slashed it diagonally!
"呲-"

There was a sound of wood breaking vertically.

Then, a wooden stake slid down the cut and hit the green grass, splashing black mud.

The fallen broken wooden stake was as big as a millstone.

Robert and Eddard swallowed their saliva. They suddenly felt that Garen was not joking when he said that the "Maiden of Justice" could cut through plate armor.

Robert's breathing became rapid.

How would such a holy sword perform in a duel or on the battlefield?
can not imagine!

When he thought that Garlon would be his vassal in the future, he instantly felt as refreshed as if he had drunk a bucket of ice-cold wine!
"How is it? Do you want me to try it on you with plate armor?"

Looking at the two stunned people, Garen smiled.

"Uh, I've seen it..."

Robert smiled bitterly, because he had discovered that the rusty plate armor on the wooden man not far away had several huge gaps on the chest!

Yes, it was exactly two years ago that Sir Goodwin took off the plate armor and tied it to the wooden man.

Since it was completely scrapped and had almost no repair value, Sir Goodwin did not reclaim it. He kept it here for Garlon to swing and test the feel.

At this time, the sword armor was already rusty and covered with scars.

However, from the patterns and styles on the plate armor, it can be clearly seen that this sword plate armor was once finely crafted.

Ed walked quickly forward and looked at the damaged plate armor carefully, still finding it hard to believe.

Is this really something a weapon can do?
If he were the one wearing this plate armor...

When Ed thought of this, he shuddered.

I'm afraid his stomach has been ripped open and he has died on the spot.

"It's okay. I haven't taken the test in a long time. Please move aside."

Looking at the rusty plate armor, Garlon felt itchy to try it himself.

Robert and Eddard immediately stepped back.

Judging from the sharpness of the Maid of Justice displayed by Garlon, anyone who was touched by this sword would be either dead or injured.

Garlon held the sword in one hand, with the tip of the sword pointing diagonally at the ground, and walked towards the wooden man wearing plate armor with casual steps.

When he was two or three meters away from the wooden man, Garlon shook his wrist, gripped the hilt of the sword in reverse, swung his arm, and slashed the Maid of Justice diagonally from bottom to top.

"clang--"

A crisp sound of metal clashing was heard, accompanied by sparks.

The plate armor broke with a sound!

The broken chest and back were cut in half by the Maid of Justice.

The wooden man also broke into two pieces.

"hiss--!"

Watching this scene, Robert and Eddard both opened their mouths and gasped.

This!
That’s too fierce!

Seven Gods, is this the Holy Sword?
Ed's faith is now even a little shaken.

Could this sword really be a weapon bestowed upon the mortal world by the seven gods? Otherwise, who could have created such a powerful weapon?
Eddard and Robert were stunned.

Garlon was also quite satisfied with the effect of his sword.

His current strength is 8.76, and swinging the sword with one hand at full strength can create such an effect.

What will happen when his strength reaches 10, or even 15 or 20?
He can completely turn on the unparalleled mowing mode on the battlefield.

With one swing of the sword, both the man and the horse were shattered, all the metal and iron were broken, and all the limbs were severed!
"Garon, you will definitely be the next 'Sword God of Dawn' in the future."

Robert finally came to his senses at this time, walked up to Garen, patted his shoulder, and spoke seriously.

Maybe when Garlon grows up, his swordsmanship will not be as exquisite as Arthur Dane's, but the visual effect created by Garlon in battle is definitely not inferior to Arthur Dane, or even better.

Garen smiled and said modestly, "My swordsmanship still needs practice. I'm still far behind the Sword God of Dawn..."

"Hey, Ned, how about we give Garlon some pointers on swordplay?"

"Just give me some pointers and use the wooden sword."

Robert looked at the "modest" Garen, suddenly grinned, and said to Eddard.

"Forehead……"

Eddard was Robert's childhood friend, so he naturally knew what Robert was planning.

He wanted Garlon to stop using the "Maid of Justice" and then take advantage of the situation by beating Garlon with a wooden sword.

Ed curled his lips. Although Garlon was not short, he was only ten years old after all.

One of them is fourteen and the other is fifteen. Is this right?
However, before Ed could speak, Garlon's voice came.

"Sure, I'm just worried about having no one to practice with."

Garen smiled, put the Maid of Justice into its sheath, untied it and put it aside, and said.

He also wanted to see the strength of Eddard and Robert at this stage.

He usually practiced with Sir Goodwin, and occasionally practiced with the soldiers in the castle and the retainer knights. He had no clear idea of ​​his own strength.

"Haha, Ned, did you hear that? Garlon really needs us to practice with him."

Robert grinned and eagerly pulled out a wooden training sword from the shelf next to him.

The wooden swords were covered with marks and stains. These wooden swords were used by Garlon for chopping dates and training.

Garen also drew out a wooden sword from the side and faced Robert from a distance.

"Okay, I'll be the referee."

Ed looked at his good friend Robert's grin, which seemed to show that he was about to bully the weak, and shook his head helplessly.

"Let's begin, Garen."

Robert held the wooden sword in his hand, stretched it forward, and spoke to Garen opposite him.

Garen nodded, his expression focused.

His current strength is 8.96, agility is 8.90, and mental strength is 15.3.

In terms of strength, he is definitely no match for Robert, but in terms of agility, he is not necessarily worse than Robert.

As for mental strength, he is probably stronger than Robert.

Not without the strength to fight!
