Game of Thrones: The Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

"His name is not 'Ego,' but Aegon Targaryen."

Jon Snow rattled off a whole host of earth-shattering secrets in one breath, and then Viserys remained calm, showing only a slight hint of surprise.

The man with the greyish-red hair was suddenly puzzled. Why wasn't Viserys showing any shock?

“Your Majesty, you seem completely unsurprised.”

"Did you already know in advance?"

Then, looking at the composed Viserys, Jon couldn't help but ask.

Viserys only snapped out of his daze when he heard Jon speak.

He had just been wondering why Jon had chosen to keep this secret from him before, but now he had suddenly told him on his own initiative.

What exactly caused this change, and who was influencing Jon's decision, which is why he was slightly distracted?

"Oh, no."

"I do not know."

After Jon's reminder, Viserys quickly shook his head.

"I was just too shocked; I never expected it to turn out like this."

"So much so that... they were stunned."

"Correct."

Viserys tried to use gestures and words to prove that he was just stunned, not just spacing out.

His words were absolutely certain.

His gaze then fell upon 'Ego,' who was holding his hand—no, it should now be 'Aegon Targaryen.'

Then Viserys put away the feigned surprise on his face, raised his head again, and asked.

"But as far as I know, my nephew Aegon was brutally murdered by the Mountain when the Red Keep fell."

Not only Viserys knew that when the Red Keep fell, the Kingslayer killed the Mad King from behind with his sword, Princess Dorne was raped and murdered by the Mountain, and her infant son Aegon was also brutally killed.

These are common knowledge; the nobles throughout the Seven Kingdoms, and almost every resident of King's Landing, know them.

"Do not."

Jon Snow, unaware that Viserys already knew, continued to give a serious explanation.

The baby killed by the Mountain during the fall of King's Landing was a farmer's child whom Varys, the Lord of Intelligence, had left there. Varys then hid Aegon.

After the usurper mistakenly believed that Aegon was dead, Varys secretly sent men to take Aegon across the Narrow Sea.

Chapter 235 Sand Snake Sisters

The discovery of Aegon Targaryen did not cause a great stir in Pentos, as the name Targaryen was still relatively unfamiliar to the city-state.

However, this was a major event for the dwindling Targaryen family.

Young Aegon washed away the paint from his hair, revealing his original color: silver-gold hair, though it appeared much duller than Viserys's shimmering hair.

His eyes appeared to be deep blue, almost black under the light, and only took on a purple hue in the twilight.

Jon explained that Aegon's mother, Elijah, had dark eyes, while young Aegon inherited his father's silver hair but his mother's dark eyes.

Like his sister Rhaenys, he had long brown hair and dark eyes, and apart from his beautiful appearance, he had no other Targaryen features.

Viserys remained noncommittal about this, for he had his own assessment of whether Viserys was a true dragon, a clown, or black fire.

There really wasn't a better way to do paternity testing in this era. When the Targaryens had dragons, there were plenty of princes and princesses who had no connection with the dragons whatsoever.

He had seen Aegon as an infant long ago when he was still a Targaryen prince at the Red Keep, but at that time little Aegon was just a baby, and his sister-in-law Elia was holding the child.

Even though Viserys still remembers what young Aegon looked like back then, he can't compare him to the boy who is now eight or nine years old.

Viserys then took Aegon back to the palace where he was staying.

It was only then that he learned that guests had arrived.

In the palace gardens not far away.

Several beautifully dressed girls were admiring the surrounding scenery. Although most of the flowers in the palace garden had withered due to the arrival of winter, a few plants that could survive the winter still sprouted green buds.

Viserys, holding young Aegon, rode his magnificent white warhorse, a black and red cloak embroidered with a three-headed dragon crest hanging over its back.

His long, silver-gold hair was tied up with a headband and hung down on his cloak, with two strands of hair fluttering in the wind in front of his forehead. Viserys held little Aegon in one arm and held the reins in the other.

"His Majesty."

A guard said a few words to Viserys.

"Oh?"

The boy sitting on the horse looked visibly surprised. He looked up at the group of girls not far away, then nodded and jumped off the horse.

A palace guard took the reins from Viserys and led the horse away, while the young king waved to a passing maid.

"come over."

"His Majesty."

The maids hurried over and bowed in greeting.

Viserys took the boy's hand and gave a few instructions to the maids, then bent down and patted little Aegon on the shoulder.

Then they handed the boy over to them to take away, and arranged for him to stay in the palace.

And not far away.

The elegantly dressed Dornish girls also spotted Viserys and recognized him at a glance.

They huddled together and whispered something to each other, then burst into giggles.

The other girls poked the olive-skinned Dorn girl in the middle, who was wearing a sand-yellow dress, with their fingers.

Then they walked together toward Viserys.

"With your molten silver hair and violet eyes, you must be the master of this palace..."

"Your Majesty Viserys Targaryen."

The Dornish girl lifted her skirt slightly and bowed gently.

“My name is Arianne, and my father is Doran Nemelos Martell, Prince of Dorne.”

Arianne's bow was perfectly executed, befitting the etiquette of a noblewoman, and she exuded an air of elegance.

However, she subtly accentuated her figure through some subtle movements.

Simultaneously.

Arianne's beautiful eyes also lingered on Viserys' handsome face, like a magnet.

Arianne was extremely satisfied with the young man before her, with his long silver-gold hair and cool eyes.

Although Viserys didn't possess the adventurous and forbidden quality that Arianne preferred, his looks were so outstanding that they far surpassed all the men she had ever seen.

In particular, Arianne's eyes captivated her, and she was so engrossed in them that she didn't want to look away.

And at this time.

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty."

The other three Dornish girls surrounding Arianne Martell also stepped forward and bowed slightly in greeting.

The oldest girl was also very strong, tall, with long, powerful legs, and a steel whip strapped to her back. She looked to be around twenty years old.

"His Majesty."

“My name is Obaya Shad.”

The oldest girl had an ordinary appearance and a rather dull and hoarse voice, unlike the pleasant voice of an average girl.

Obaya then turned around and introduced Viserys to her other sisters.

“This is my sister, Namelia Shad.”

The second girl was slender, with long black hair braided and tied with a red and gold ribbon. She had milky white skin and was much prettier than her sister, Obaya.

The third and youngest girl was named Trinity Shad, with blonde hair and blue eyes.

Trinity's smile was incredibly sweet; she even secretly winked at Viserys and kneaded her chest with her fingers.

“We sisters are the illegitimate daughters of Prince Oberon Martell.”

After introducing all her sisters in a rough voice, Obaya, the eldest of the 'Sand Snakes,' turned to look at Viserys.

"His Majesty."

However, Viserys took all of this in, but remained calm, lingering only on Treni's cheek for a moment before glancing at Obaya and nodding slightly.

"Sand Snake Sisters".

“I have heard your father mention you.”

Oberyn even joked with Viserys at that time.

If his daughters weren't illegitimate and unable to be a match for Viserys, he would have even wanted to marry them off to him, even if it was just as mistresses.

Oberyn was naturally promiscuous and had no concern for romantic relationships. It should be noted that during the Targaryen dynasty, not every noble girl had the opportunity to become a Targaryen's mistress, let alone conceive his child.

Viserys glanced at the Sand Snakes, then turned his gaze to Arianne Martell, nodded, and spoke.

"Welcome, Your Highness, to Pentos."

Chapter 236 Dating

After exchanging greetings, the Sand Snake Girls tactfully left on their own initiative.

They were all Arianne's best friends. Although the relationship between Prince Doran and Arianne was not very harmonious, he was still a little worried about sending his daughter over from thousands of miles away.

So they sent Oberyn's three older daughters, who had been left in Dorne, to keep Ariane company and prevent her from being too lonely.

It just so happens that these girls, who have become unruly in Dorne, are sent to their irresponsible father, Oberyn, so that he can discipline them properly.
