Game of Thrones: The Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

"I do know your true nature."

"But I didn't expect you to lose control so quickly?"

Euron's single eye seemed to hold a smile, but to Cersei it was a black eye flashing with malice.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Cersei's face was slightly pale, and she involuntarily took a step back in front of her husband.

Euron was much more difficult to deal with than her ex-husband Robert.

Robert is a hero, at least that's what Cersei acknowledges, and that's the only thing she likes about Robert.

However, Euron was a complete villain. He was utterly wicked and took pleasure in tormenting those around him. Cersei had absolutely no affection for Euron.

But the result was that Cersei was more afraid of Euron than Robert; she was trembling with fear at Euron's gaze.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of Cersei, Euron turned his gaze back to the room.

Based on his judgment, the other party should not have left yet, and is still hiding in some corner of the room, and Cersei seemed to have just been talking to him about something.

Euron was also curious: what kind of person would dare to cuckold him?

He could smell the fishy stench of seawater in the smell, so it must be an iron product, and no outsider could enter Pike City.

Did someone around him betray him?

Euron licked his chapped lips, and for some reason, a long-lost feeling of excitement rose within him.

Because this was something completely foreign to him, he was thinking about how to punish the man and Cersei after he captured him.

Should we strip them both naked and lock them in a cage? Or throw this guy into the sea to feed the sharks? No, no, that's too boring. Or maybe we should tie them to the mast and sail to King's Landing?

The long night has ended. His Majesty the Emperor has been missing for three months, and the entire empire is in a delicate state of waiting and watching. Euron has also received this news.

Euron was an ungrateful dog. He was actually similar to Ramsay Bolton. When Viserys was strong, they knelt down and wagged their tails, but once their master declined, these former loyal dogs began to bare their teeth.

Did Viserys save the world?

maybe.

Euron also acknowledged that Viserys was a hero, but heroes often die young. Viserys had been missing for three months, and Euron guessed that Viserys might already be dead.

The news that came through indicated a split within the Empire's upper echelons, with the two queens locked in a fierce confrontation. Queen Arianne wanted to continue exercising her power as regent, but Queen Daenerys was not satisfied. Caught in the middle, Queen Renesas decided to ride a dragon away from King's Landing to clear her head.

Euron had long harbored rebellious intentions, like An Lushan in Game of Thrones, but he lacked the corresponding strength. He guessed that Viserys was probably dead, but Euron was very cautious and dared not suddenly raise the banner of rebellion at this time.

Because the Targaryen family also possesses seven dragons, if Euron were to rebel today, perhaps within a few days several dragons would fly over Pyke Isle and destroy the Greyjoy family's home city.

Therefore, Euron wanted to lead the Iron Fleet to King's Landing to report on his duties, using this opportunity to instigate infighting among the Empire's high command.

As a resource-poor archipelago, Euron could only hope for internal strife on the continent of Westeros if he wanted to achieve his goal of domination; otherwise, he would have no chance at all.

"Tsk tsk..."

Euron then didn't even glance at Cersei, but instead began to look around the room.

He was looking for suitable places for Tibetans. As the master of Pike, Eulen's room was spacious and had many cabinets and furniture.

bang——

Euron walked to a cabinet and suddenly pulled open the door. However, it was full of clothes and miscellaneous items, but there was no one inside. He then opened the doors of several other wardrobes and checked under the bed, but still found no one.

However, Euron was not discouraged. He just gave a cold laugh. He felt great about the cat-and-mouse game and enjoyed it very much.

"Stop hiding, I see you."

He then turned his attention to the last cabinet he hadn't checked.

...

Meanwhile, Viserys' conversation with the drowning god came to an end.

Viserys learned part of the truth from the drowning god, gaining a deeper understanding of the current state of Asgard. At the same time, he also became more wary of Rahlo.

But the core of all this ultimately lies in the Seven Gods.

The Seven Gods are second only to Rahlo in divine power, making them the second most powerful deities in the divine realm.

"How are the Seven Gods doing now?"

"Is he pretending, or is he really living in a daze?"

After leaving the Water Palace, Viserys pondered for a moment and decided to visit the Seven Gods later.

Viserys then flipped his hand and took out a flawless white pearl the size of a walnut. He examined it carefully for a couple of moments before putting it away again.

This was a gift from the drowning god to Viserys, imbued with the god's divine power. Carrying it allowed those who couldn't swim to dive into the deep sea and command schools of fish.

But this thing wasn't very useful to Viserys; he treated it more as a collectible.

Chapter 912 Nightmare

Viserys then found Bellerion wandering nearby.

The black dragon was currently hunting fish in the nearby waters, and several fishing boats from the Iron Islands fled in panic, clearly frightened by the presence of Bellerion.

However, Viserys did not concern himself with these mundane affairs; he mounted the black dragon and prepared to go to the Temple of the Stars.

For thousands of years before Aegon's landing, the Church of the Stars was the headquarters of the Church of the Seven and the residence of the High Priest, until it was gradually moved to King's Landing after the unification of the six kingdoms except Dorne.

This place is where the seven gods dwell. They hide in the kingdom of the gods to recuperate and recover from the damage suffered in the battle hundreds of years ago.

What made Viserys somewhat embarrassed was that the Temple of Stars had once suffered a devastating blow.

That was during the Second Conquest, when the Targaryen and Dornish armies joined forces to defeat the main Reach army at Starstalker, forcing Highgarden to surrender.

Then Old Town Elder Lord Leyton Hightower wrote a letter begging for surrender, but Viserys tore up the letter and refused to accept the surrender, because he had no intention of preserving the City of the Seven and also wanted to destroy the Church of the Seven's deep-rooted position in the Seven Kingdoms.

Therefore, the Targaryen and Dornish armies breached Oldtown, and the dragons burned down Star Sanctuary, which is now a reconstruction after its destruction.

Viserys rode his black dragon toward Oldtown, wanting to see the Seven no matter what.

Then the black dragon, along with Viserys, disappeared into the horizon.

...

Meanwhile, Euron suddenly pulled open the door of the last cabinet, and there really was a person hidden inside, but this person left the great pirate who had roamed the summer seas somewhat at a loss.

"Theon?"

Euron looked at the pale, cold corpse lying in the closet and took two steps back, his breathing becoming slightly rapid.

If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear.

Although Euron was born evil and insane, he still felt a chill run down his spine when faced with this kind of thing. After all, Theon's death was indeed something he had secretly planned. Later, the drowned priest who had cooperated with him came to Euron to ask for the bounty, but Euron also disposed of him, and the body was buried in the rubble below Pyke.

Euron was startled when he saw Theon's corpse, but then realized that it seemed to be just a corpse and had not come back to life or become a White Walker, so he was slightly relieved.

But this was also quite horrifying. Euron then tentatively reached out and felt under his nephew's nose. There was no breath at all, and the body was ice-cold, indicating that he was already dead. The fishy smell of seawater that Euron smelled was coming from Theon.

"what happened?"

After Euron confirmed that Theon was indeed dead, he turned to look at Cersei.

"I...I don't know either."

Cersei was already terrified by Euron's questioning gaze; her mind went blank, especially when Euron opened the cabinet and there was indeed Theon's corpse inside.

You don't know either?

Cersei's panic saved her at that moment. Euron could tell that the expression on Cersei's face was genuine, so he frowned slightly and asked.

What just happened?

How did Theon's body end up here?

Cersei finally realized that the person hiding in the closet was not Jaime but Theon, only that Jaime's soul was inside Theon's body.

But now Jaime's soul seems to have escaped, and Theon's body, without anyone controlling it, has turned back into a corpse.

Cersei calmed herself down a little, but she was still somewhat shaken. However, when faced with her husband's question, she quickly came up with an explanation.

"I don't know either, Euron."

“I just got back to the house and smelled something strange. Then I opened the cabinet and found Theon’s body. I was terrified.”

Cersei, as expected of the former queen, has spent years in the court and is a master of lying. She and Euron are indeed a perfect match. In just a few moments, Cersei has portrayed herself as another victim and actively helped Euron analyze the problem, diverting his attention.

"This is not a prank, this is blatant intimidation!"

"Someone definitely has ill intentions!"

Cersei spoke up to remind her.

Indeed, if someone really did secretly hide Theon's body in Euron's bedroom, it would be a blatant act of intimidation and provocation, proving that the other party had free access to Pyke City, especially Euron's bedroom, and even brought in something as large as a corpse.

Euron also looked skeptical when he heard Cersei's words, because Cersei's words made a lot of sense.

Although Theon wasn't particularly tall or strong, his body still weighed around 130 or 140 pounds. Cersei, as an ordinary woman, couldn't possibly lift Theon's body, and even dragging it would be difficult. It must have taken many people working together to accomplish this.

Furthermore, Cersei had no reason or motive for doing this. Who was Cersei trying to intimidate by bringing Theon's corpse into the bedroom? But if an outsider had done this, there would have been a good reason.

"Who will it be?"

Euron's face immediately darkened, and his single eye was now devoid of any smile, completely filled with gloom and flashing with insane malice.

He was carefully considering who the people around him were capable of entering Pike City, getting close to his bedroom, and even commanding people to carry the corpse.

However, Euron couldn't come up with a suitable answer after much thought, so the matter was ultimately left unresolved.

Euron then summoned the guards of Pyke, who carried Theon's soldiers away and reburied them in the rubble beneath Pyke.

Euron then gave each of them ten lashes and warned them to keep a close watch on whoever did this, vowing to find him, cut him into human sticks, and pickle him in a jar.

Although the matter was over, it certainly wouldn't end so easily. Euron couldn't sleep well until the mastermind behind it was found, and it even became an unresolved knot in his heart.

However, Euron had a nightmare that very night.

As a notorious pirate who kills and robs without batting an eye, Euron ate well and slept soundly, and hadn't had a nightmare in ages.

But in this nightmare, he acted very realistically.

In his sleep, he was facing accusations from his elder brother Balon, who was enveloped in green flames and loudly denounced Euron for murdering his nephew and taking away the position that should have belonged to Theon.

Euron suddenly woke up from his nightmare, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
