Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

"You lost, Lord Stark." Ian Koru and Belicio stood together and looked at Eddard Stark who was being escorted in front of him and said.

"." Ed Stark didn't answer. He put his hands on the giant sword 'Ice' and barely kept standing. He was seriously injured, and he was relying solely on his perseverance to support him.

"Kneel down and swear allegiance to the great Emperor Ian Darry I," Ian continued after seeing this. "You will retain the position of Duke of Winterfell and Warden of the North. Your family will be safe, and your Vassals and soldiers will be pardoned and released, including those who rebelled against the Targaryen family, and will also be pardoned."

"This" Eddard Stark was a little moved when he heard this. He thought about many endings after defeat, because of the rumors he had heard in the past about the tyrant of Valyria and his 'Mad King's Second' wife. , most of these endings are not very happy, but now, it seems that the other party has shown amazing kindness.

"Then, Queen," Eddard Stark said in a hoarse voice.

"I think you're talking about the 'False King' Shireen Baratheon?" Ian interrupted Ed.

"Shireen's throne comes from her father," Eddard Stark defended subconsciously.

"Is the brother of the usurper Robert Baratheon, the other 'false king' Stannis?" Ian interrupted again.

"." Ed didn't know how to answer these words for a moment.

"'False King' Shireen is just a little girl, and the conspiracy of usurpation and rebellion has nothing to do with her." The next moment Ian said something that made Eddard Stark breathe a sigh of relief. "She is guilty. His father and uncle are dead, so the Emperor will forgive the Baratheon family for their sins.

The false king Shireen only needs to give up King's Landing and the royal fleet, and she will be able to return to her family's fiefdom of Storm's End and continue to be the lord there. In the future, Shireen needs to marry an important official of the Empire. As for the choice, you or she can decide. Their children will become the new Duke of Storm's End and the Governor of the Stormlands. "

"Excuse me, I have one last question, about slavery in the Empire" Ed said the last question he was worried about.

"Imperial slavery will not enter Westeros. His Majesty the Emperor respects the traditions of Westeros. So far, the Empire has never implemented slavery in newly conquered areas where slavery does not exist.

In fact, at the request of Queen Daenerys, His Majesty the Emperor intends to gradually optimize even Slaver's Bay and Volantis in the future until slavery is abolished. Because the interests of the nobility, citizens, and slaves must be taken into consideration at the same time, this will take a long time to balance. Maybe it will take him 50 years, or even a hundred years, but eventually one day, the slaves will be free. "

"Lord Kolu," Eddard Stark took a deep breath. He never dreamed that he could get such conditions after defeat. "The promise you just gave."

"It's all His Majesty's intention. He already gave me instructions before leaving Volantis." Of course Ian knew what Ed wanted to ask.

"Then I have nothing more to ask for. Please allow me to thank Your Majesty for your kindness on behalf of the nobles and people of Westeros." Ed lowered his head.

Ed has lived his whole life with responsibilities, responsibilities to his family, vassals, the royal family, and the people of his territory. The Empire ensured the safety of his family, pardoned the vassals and the Baratheon family, and would not turn Westeros into a slave country.

Since his allegiance to Emperor Ian Darry could avoid further sacrifices and was worthy of his honor and responsibilities, he had no reason to continue to insist.

As for the fact that Shireen needed to marry an important official of the empire, Ed didn't think there was anything wrong. She was the only suitable descendant of the Baratheon family, and she was a girl. It is in line with tradition and legal principles for Storm's End to be inherited by her children, not to mention that Lord Kolu also promised that Eddard can help choose Shireen's husband personally.

"I, Eddard Stark, Duke of Winterfell, hereby swear allegiance to the great Valyrian Emperor Ian Darry." Eddard Stark held the hilt of the ice sword with both hands and held it. He slowly knelt down with his heavy body,

"I will be his loyal subject, I will serve him throughout my life, give him honest advice and absolute obedience, protect his rights and his country, and I will always fight by his side no matter the dangers ahead, To take care of his people and punish his enemies, I will use the old gods and

"Red God." Ian Kolu reminded.

"I swear in the name of the old gods and the red gods." Ed originally wanted to say the old and new gods, but since the state religion of the New Valyria Empire is the R'hllor sect, and he himself does not believe in the Seven Gods, then Naturally, there is no need to include the Seven Gods in the oath.

"Congratulations, Lord Stark, we are colleagues now." Ian smiled and took a few steps forward, took the initiative to help Ed Stark, and then clapped his hands and had someone bring him a jar of potion.

This is a jar of 'Blessing of the Supreme Shepherd' that Ian spent 20 points to buy from the system store. It is just right for treating Eddard Stark's trauma.

"This is it?" Ed looked at the ointment handed over by Ian Colu and did not take it immediately.

"A medicine to treat trauma, you can also understand it as a miracle, a gift from the emperor." Ian put the gold on his face without hesitation, "You can go back and put this medicine on your face later. Apply the ointment evenly to your wounds. All your injuries will be healed by tomorrow at the latest. Then you will lead His Majesty's army to King's Landing to persuade the Lady of Storm's End who is sitting on the Iron Throne to surrender." This time. Ian no longer used the title 'Pseudo King'.

"Yes, sir." Ed Stark then let the attendant take the jar, then nodded and left.

"The rest will be left to you." After Ian personally handled the matter of recruiting Ed Stark, he left all the remaining trivial matters to Belicio Valeros.

After all, now that the Imperial Army has won a great victory and Eddard Stark himself has sworn allegiance to the Emperor, unless Ian dies, no one will dare to think wrongly.

After returning to his camp, Ian checked his system mailbox. Unfortunately, he did not receive any mail.

Apparently, Ian's rule over Westeros hasn't officially taken effect yet, so the quest hasn't been settled yet.

The only thing Ian regrets is the superficiality of the system.

This huge-scale battle on the Zhouyi River was not certified as an 'epic victory' by the system. This means that the system's judging criteria are the same as those of many games. An epic victory must be to defeat more with fewer people, or to win with the weak. Only the strong can win.

Sun Tzu said, the victory of those who are good at fighting has no reputation for wisdom and no bravery. Just like people playing games, if someone is level 8 and beats level 5, people will not think that his skills are great, because people usually don't think about why the opponent is only level 5, but he is already level 8.
