The port master from the Korvat family of Coldwater City in the Valley heard someone call his name, and he shuddered, snapping out of his shock and utter bewilderment.

Then he turned his head and saw an even more horrifying scene.

A short, gray-haired, and very well-dressed dwarf was walking down the deck on wooden planks with his short legs.

Chapter 1077 A Bold Plan

"Lord Tyrion?"

"You...you've already..."

News of Tyrion's death had spread almost throughout Westeros, yet here he was, standing perfectly fine before him.

Rod Korvat, the port authority of Blackwater Bay, stood there dumbfounded, staring at the other man as if he had seen a ghost.

If it weren't for the incredible lineup we just saw, Rod Corvette might still think Tyrion wasn't dead.

However, after seeing a talking corpse and a White Walker nodding and smiling at him...

Now the port master only wondered if the Tyrion in front of him was a ghost.

Unfortunately, he missed the chance to see the three great supernatural beings of the A Song of Ice and Fire world in one day: the wights, the White Walkers, and the ghosts. The Tyrion in front of him was a real, living person.

"Don't spread rumors, Lord Rod Korvat."

Tyrion stepped off the deck, unsurprised by the other's surprise. His gray hair fluttered in the wind as he shrugged and spoke.

“I also died once thirty years ago. At that time, everyone, including my father, thought I was dead.”

"People are probably very sad."

“I’m glad someone is willing to mourn for a dwarf, but even so I still think it’s better to be alive.”

Tyrion looked at the old acquaintance before him, shook his head, and jokingly mocked himself.

At that time, Tyrion was being held captive in the cellar by his own father, waiting to die.

Because Tywin always viewed Tyrion as a monster sent by the gods to torment him, who had taken away his beloved wife and brought shame upon his family.

However, Tyrion is now fifty years old and no longer cares about the past.

Most importantly, regardless of whether Tywin Lannister could accept it in the afterlife, the Lannister name was destined to be passed down to Tyrion.

Tyrion originally intended to use the strategy of faking his death to publicize the 'tyranny' of Herod the Targaryen, thereby sowing discord between the Northern nobles, Princess Diana, and King's Landing, and ultimately fostering an alliance between Diana and Aemon.

Unfortunately, Tyrion cleverly seized the opportunity and used the fake death to severely damage Horos's reputation, making the Regent Prince's name in Westeros even more infamous. However, this still did not provoke Diana to finally turn against Horos.

If Tyrion secretly instigates and stirs things up in a few more days, perhaps the whole situation can still be turned around.

However, at this moment, Heros suddenly descended upon the North on a dragon, breaking the deadlock in the simplest and most direct way and shattering all of Tyrion's plans.

Heroes Targaryen persuaded his sister Diana to form an alliance and enter into a marriage.

Although Princess Diana's mother, Queen Ariane, is currently under house arrest at the Red Keep, everyone knows that Ariane is merely restricted in her movements and is not in danger; she continues to enjoy the treatment of an Empress within the Red Keep.

The release of Queen Ariane, the mother of Heros, was one of the conditions for the alliance between Heros and Diana to be formed.

Therefore, seeing the situation take a complete 180-degree turn, Tyrion's important mission on this trip was to forge an alliance between Princess Eldritch and Prince Aemon, but Princess Eldritch sided with the First Prince.

Although Tyrion still seemed to have everything under control, he spent his days scheming in his makeshift barracks, and even developed a large blister on his lip from worry.

All of this was observed by the delegation's current leader, Edric Dane, and his illegitimate son, Damon Fophare, among others.

However, they had no good ideas and could not help Tyrion.

After all, Tyrion was the smartest person present. If even he couldn't come up with a solution, then all the others combined wouldn't be able to do it.

Tyrion was furious for several days, and even considered sending the Sword of the Morning to break into the camp of the First Prince's envoys and kill their leader, Petyr Baelish, the governor of the Vale.

To destroy the alliance in the most brutal way.

However, Tyrion ultimately abandoned this risky plan.

If they actually do that, not to mention the enormous risk they would take, whether they can even escape.

Furthermore, it's even more impossible to get Princess Diana and Prince Aemon to join forces again.

Therefore, Tyrion pondered for several days, so much so that he lost all the white hair on his head.

Then, he finally came up with an extremely risky decision.

He decided to personally step forward and expose the lie that he had faked his death.

In the most honest and sincere way, without any ulterior motives, talk to Her Highness the Princess and persuade her to stand on Prince Imon's side.

Tyrion, having chosen to expose his own lies and step forward, naturally did not expect to persuade the other party to abandon the newly signed alliance based solely on his empty words.

Tyrion may consider himself quite eloquent, but if he were so confident that he could persuade the princess with just words, he wouldn't have chosen to fake his death in the first place.

Therefore, Tyrion's deep thinking these past few days has actually been a process of devising a solution.

A strategy that puts aside his current identity and all limitations, and wholeheartedly stands on Diana's side.

"If I were now a vassal under Her Highness the Eldest Princess..."

Over the next few days, a plan gradually emerged in Tyrion's mind.

He used this plan to persuade Princess Diana Targaryen to replace her previous alliance and plans with Herloth.

This plan required the participation of one person, and that person was his brother, Jaime Lannister.

Currently, Tyrion is the only person in the entire Empire known to possess extraordinary abilities, not openly.

After Jaime was sentenced to death by hanging for regicide, his soul was taken by Viserys as a divine messenger, who used divine power to transform his soul.

Therefore, Jaime is actually a ghost now, but he can occasionally borrow Viserys's power through some kind of connection.

After Viserys visited the god of drowning, the god of drowning gave him a magical pearl.

Viserys then rushed to Oldtown to visit the Seven, thus leaving the pearl to Jaime.

However, this pearl has now become a powerful tool for the Iron Fleet to travel across the seas, cutting through waves and covering thousands of miles in a day.

Tyrion's plan was thus laid bare.

He wanted to offer an irresistible incentive—control of the entire capital, King's Landing—in exchange for Princess Diana Targaryen's breaking of her original engagement and alliance!

Chapter 1078 Taking Over the Throne

Tyrion's plan was undeniably audacious.

Because while Princess Diana was the best ally, she was also a potential contender for the Iron Throne.

However, Tyrion's plan to help Princess Diana seize King's Landing also added an obstacle to Aemon's path to the Iron Throne. After all, King's Landing was of extraordinary importance, and controlling it was tantamount to winning half the battle.

These outcomes were foreseeable to Tyrion, yet he still boldly took the plunge.

Because no transaction in this world is profitable forever, you must first invest a certain amount of capital to reap greater rewards.

Princess Diana broke her engagement and alliance to seize King's Landing, so there was no longer any possibility of an alliance between her and Herros, and the two would become enemies forever.

Breaking the alliance between the eldest princess and the first prince is Tyrion's most pressing problem to solve.

Otherwise, if the two really joined forces, then Aemon would have absolutely no chance.

Therefore, Tyrion must break this alliance at all costs.

Secondly, you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.

If Tyrion cannot offer Princess Diana a condition she cannot refuse, and cannot persuade her, then all will be lost.

Therefore, Tyrion assumed he was now a vassal of Diana Targaryen, advising the princess and boldly offering the irresistible offer of taking King's Landing in exchange for the breakdown of their alliance.

In the end, Tyrion's audacious and overt scheme succeeded.

He continued to fake his death and conceal his identity in order to hide information and catch the enemy off guard.

He was brought to Diana's presence by Edric Dane in a box under the guise of delivering a gift.

Tyrion then climbed out of the box and boldly confessed his plan to fake his death to the Empire's eldest princess.

And before the other party gets angry, he reveals the plan he has already prepared.

Tyrion declared that the Iron Islands had already secretly pledged allegiance to Prince Aemon Targaryen, and that the Iron Fleet was now on the Narrow Sea, ready to help Diana attack King's Landing.

At that time, Prince Aemon's army will also help divert Heros's attention, allowing them to launch a surprise attack and take King's Landing in one fell swoop.

As the Empire's foremost statesman and strategist, coupled with decades of rich experience, only someone like Tyrion could come up with such a meticulous yet insane plan.

He and Bessie were indeed indispensable right-hand men to Aemon Targaryen, propelling him step by step toward victory.

However, despite Tyrion's audacious plan and his previous deception of Diana, he still made the right bet.

Taking control of King's Landing was indeed a condition that Princess Diana could not refuse.

Moreover, her mother, Queen Ariane, is currently under house arrest in the Red Castle.

Therefore, Diana was eventually persuaded by Tyrion and agreed to join the plan.

Tyrion did not deceive Diana; he genuinely helped her seize King's Landing.

Now, the port of Blackwater Bay was captured by the Iron Fleet and the soldiers of the North in a matter of moments.

However, the capital garrison, which still controls King's Landing, will not lay down their weapons and surrender obediently.

When the Red Queen Vaghar arrived in King's Landing, they quickly discovered the anomalies at the port.

A battle was about to break out.

"kill!"

The conflict, centered on Blackwater Bay, spread outwards, and fierce battles erupted in the streets and alleys of King's Landing in an instant, with shouts of killing filling the air.

clang clang

Weapons clashed repeatedly, accompanied by screams of the wounded falling to the ground and cries for mercy. But even more so, the cries of the people of King's Landing echoed as they fled in all directions.

War is merciless.

When war begins, it is the ordinary people who suffer the most, especially in such an undeserved disaster.

Who could have imagined that Princess Diana's army would suddenly appear in King's Landing and engage in battle with Prince Herros's army?

The people of King's Landing even thought that it was Prince Aemon's army that had invaded.
