Game of Thrones: Viserys the Three-Headed Dragon

"What should I call you, butler?"

Until noon the next day, Viserys, who had been waiting for Illyrio for a long time, was so hungry that he finally pretended to have just woken up and walked out of the bedroom door. By chance, he met the butler who was directing the maid to clean the corridor. It was the one who took the dragon bone collection for Illyrio at the welcoming banquet yesterday.

The butler bowed slightly: "Just call me butler, distinguished guest."

Viserys said: "You must have a name, right?"

"Just call me butler, distinguished guest." His voice was shrill and sweet, and he answered appropriately, "The master has ordered that if the guest has anything, he can find me."

"Well," Viserys smiled incomprehensibly, "You have an interesting name."

The butler nodded slightly, looked at Viserys with a smile, and did not speak, as if waiting for Viserys to give instructions.

Viserys stopped worrying about his name and asked, "Where is your master?"

"Dear guest," the butler's answer seemed to have been prepared in advance, "The master went out this morning for something and I don't know when he will be back. He told you before he left that if you want to find him, you may have to wait for a while."

"Oh, so that's it," Viserys said without any expression on his face, changing the subject, "Butler, did your master tell you about lunch?"

Viserys would have to be crazy to take the initiative to find Illyrio. He started with a bloody collapse, and the opponent gave him time. Shouldn't he seize the time to develop well?

Well, to be precise, he developed in front of others.

The butler answered seriously: "Lunch is my duty. Dear guest, do you want to go to the restaurant or send it to your room?"

"Well, Governor Illyrio is really considerate," Viserys thought for a while and gave the answer, "Restaurant."

The butler nodded: "Please wait in the restaurant. Do you need a guide?"

Viserys waved his hand: "I remember the way."

The butler nodded slightly and left.

There was only one maid left there quietly cleaning.

It seemed that Illyrio, at least on the surface, was very lenient with the Targaryen brothers and sisters, allowing them to walk around the courtyard at will.

It was precisely because of this that Viserys decided to go to the restaurant for dinner. After lunch, he planned to walk around the courtyard to see where the boundaries of his activities were.

As soon as the housekeeper left, the door opened behind him, and the thin Daenerys walked out of the room: "Brother."

After saying hello, she shut up, her eyes flashed from the maid who was doing the cleaning work, and immediately lowered her head, like a maid, and walked to Viserys quietly.

Viserys nodded and said to her: "You must be hungry, let's go and have lunch."

Then he walked towards the restaurant.

It seemed that Daenerys had woken up a long time ago, but she didn't hear Viserys' call, so she didn't dare to go out, and she was hungry for a long time.

Lunch was fish, roast pork and honey butter bread, with wine, very Pentos-style.

In the huge restaurant, only Viserys and Daenerys were eating at the moment, and the butler was quietly serving.

Viserys asked casually: "Butler, don't Illyrio's family live here?"

"." The butler paused and replied, "This is just one of the many courtyards of the master, distinguished guest."

Viserys couldn't help but look at him more: "Oh."

Then he didn't ask any more questions.

Dany listened to Viserys and the butler's questions and answers, and the answers were irrelevant, and her head couldn't help but stir.

Since being struck by lightning, Viserys's behavior has become unpredictable, and his words are also confusing. Dany still hasn't figured out what he meant by "If you want to protect a secret, don't act like you have a secret to protect" last night.

Of course, she can understand the surface meaning, but

She thought that when Viserys said it to her, he was also deliberately saying it to people outside.

She didn't sleep well all night.

Then, just now, she thought Viserys was just asking casually, but the butler paused before answering.

The sensitive Dany caught this.

It was not until after lunch that Viserys wiped his mouth and broke the silence of the restaurant again: "Butler, I want to take a walk in the yard, can I?"

The butler replied: "Dear guest, you can do it yourself, no need to ask me."

Viserys nodded: "Okay."

The butler asked: "Do you need a companion?" As if asking the guests being entertained for their opinions.

"Okay." Viserys did not refuse.

Then, Viserys and Daenerys walked along the promenade of the courtyard accompanied by the butler.

The courtyard is not small, surrounded by three tall brick walls and a low cliff facing the narrow sea. There are three gates in the courtyard. The main gate is the main way in and out of the house. The gate is closed. There is a sentry box next to the door, and two guards are sitting. One door leads to the garden. The third door is the back door, with a kennel and dogs.

Viserys stopped at the main entrance and stared for a while. The guards at the entrance just glanced at him and stopped looking at him. They just did their own things.

Their hands never left their swords and their eyes never looked away. Just from these, we can judge that they are well-trained and should not be mercenaries.

Viserys didn't look for too long, so he didn't know if there were other guards outside the main entrance.

Viserys roughly measured the courtyard. The whole courtyard was about four to five basketball courts in size. It was tightly closed. The situation outside the courtyard could not be seen from inside the courtyard, and the situation inside the courtyard could not be seen from outside.

From the perspective of hiding important people, it was indeed isolated from inside and outside.

After walking around, no one spoke a word along the way. Viserys couldn't stand it and said, "You seem to be very taciturn, butler."

Of course he could feel that the housekeeper and the guard at the door were suspected of being of Unsullied origin, and they were supposed to be taciturn. But Illyrio asked him to serve, or monitor, and he answered the previous questions and answers quite well.

So.

[Aren’t you going to spy on something? 】

The butler replied apologetically: "Excuse me, my distinguished guest."

Then he shut up again.

Viserys then took the initiative to choose the topic: "I heard that Pentos also has a king?"

The butler answered the question: "Yes, distinguished guest, they call him Prince Pentos."

Viserys said casually, "Have you seen him?"

"I have," answered the steward. "I have seen from afar a prince in a sedan chair of ivory and gold, visiting Pentos at a festive feast."

Viserys asked, "Is he the most powerful man in Pentos?"

"." The butler paused, "I'm just a little butler, I don't know about adults' affairs, distinguished guest."

Viserys smiled back at the steward's answer and continued, "Aren't you from Pentos?"

The butler replied: "Pantos is a commercial port city, and many people living in Pantos are not from Pantos. They are distinguished guests."

Viserys still asked casually: "Your master is not a Pentos?"

"." The butler answered quickly this time, "I am just a small butler. I don't know anything about the master, distinguished guest."

Viserys asked again: "I heard that when the Pentos thought the gods were angry with them, such as losing a war or failing crops, they would slit the prince's throat and sacrifice him to the gods to appease them. God’s wrath. Is there such a thing?”

"."

"Ah!" This time, before the butler could reply, Dany, who had been following Viserys, slipped and exhaled.

Viserys stood still and turned around, asking, "What's wrong with you, Daenerys?"

"I" Daenerys' little face was full of panic, but she couldn't explain why. She just bowed her head and apologized, "I'm sorry."

The housekeeper also stopped, squatted sideways, looked at it for a while, and said, "Your foot is sprained," and then he started to deal with it, "I need to move your foot and do some simple treatment, distinguished lady. "

Daenerys didn't dare to answer after hearing this, and looked up at Viserys.

Viserys stepped forward to help Daenerys and said in a non-committal tone: "I'll help her back. Is there any medicine for bruises here? Go get the medicine."

The butler glanced at Viserys, hesitated for a moment, and finally did not refuse: "Please wait a moment."

"I'm sorry." Danny apologized timidly.

Viserys said with a cold face: "You did nothing wrong, there is no need to say sorry."

To be honest, Viserys didn't want to pose like this in front of a thin and pitiful girl, but that's what he was.

Even if Viserys wants to change his attitude now, he can't be too hasty.

And for the time being, he needs Daenerys to continue to maintain this cowardly state. She won't talk much, won't do stupid things, she will only think randomly, and anyone can see that she is worried.

Perhaps because Viserys's attitude was much softer than before, Dany subconsciously asked the question she wanted to know most in her heart: "How long are we going to live here?"

Viserys told the truth: "It will be a long time."

Dany's heart sank and she whispered, "But you don't trust him."

"Dany, don't talk nonsense. The princes of Pentos are in a better situation than us." Viserys squeezed her arm and said coldly, "I don't ask you to do anything, just stop talking."

Then Dany stopped.

This little girl was already miserable enough at the hands of her original CPU, and she was used to being manipulated.

Even though Viserys couldn't bear it, he still had a tough attitude.

Viserys helped Dany back to her room without any gentleness. Dany's arm hurt from the squeeze.

Not long after returning to the room and sitting down on the bedside, the housekeeper brought medicine and a basin of water.

"Please take off your shoes, my lady."

Just as the steward was about to tend Dany's ankle, Viserys interrupted: "No, steward, not you. Go get a maid."

Hearing this, the butler looked at Viserys blankly. Seeing the serious look on his face, he lowered his head and apologized: "Sorry, please forgive me for being abrupt, distinguished guest."

Dany was sitting on the bedside. After listening to the conversation, she couldn't help but glance at Viserys quickly, and found that he was about to turn his head to look. She hurriedly lowered her eyes and waited silently.

Viserys looked serious and didn't speak. He just kept touching the dragon bone pendant on his wrist.
