Chapter 23 The Howl of the Evil One
"Both real dragons and sheep have to fight hard!"
Missandei and Daenerys couldn't help but murmured after hearing this.
Especially Daenerys, who has been wandering since she was a few years old. Along the way, she and her brother Viserys encountered countless assassinations at night, and almost always escaped death.
During this period of time, with Aegon's care, she had almost forgotten that feeling, thinking that she would never experience that kind of dark moment again in the future.
But today in Astapor, the presence of these Unsullied, Missandei, and others has reawakened those experiences.
This is a cruel world. If you don't raise your sword, you will become a slave or a corpse.
At this moment, Daenerys seemed to have hot blood burning in her body, which was the blood of a true dragon.
Blood and fire come from the same source!
She vowed to fight for all her subjects, all the people and slaves who had suffered or were living a miserable life like her.
She vowed to fight to the end for these people.
"Go back first!"
Aegon didn't want to stay in this fiery square any longer.
Compared to these blood-red bricks, he still prefers the blue ocean, and he also needs to go back and give Daenerys some small instructions.
Back on the Balerion, Aegon called several core members Jon, Daenerys, and Jorah Mormont into the room, and then took out a piece of Valyrian steel from the cabinet.
dragon bone dagger.
"This is a dagger collected by Governor Drumman. Rislin used it to stab Drumman in the right eye.
I’m giving it to you now so you can use it for self-defense in the future, and there’s another task for you tomorrow!”
Aegon said as he picked up the dragon bone dagger and put it in Daenerys' hand.
"What's it called?"
"I don't know either, Rislin said she hadn't heard of it either, but I did give it a name - Howl of the Evil One!
Use it to make those evildoers howl! Tomorrow you can test the sharpness of this Valyrian steel."
"Your Majesty, do you mean to kill those slave owners tomorrow instead of trading with them?"
Only then did Jon Clinton react.
He always thought that Aegon was going to buy these Unsullied, then start a wave of liberation war in Slaver's Bay, and then return to Westeros.
The purchase of the Unsullied at the beginning of this plan was actually against his principles, but he almost endured it for Aegon's sake.
And keep telling yourself that these are all for the sake of peace in the future. Even if the initial method is a bit sinful, it is still worth it, in an attempt to convince yourself.
But the Seven Gods all know that making a deal with the slave master is dancing with the devil, and the devil will slowly devour them in the night.
Just look at the fat-minded slave traders today and you will know that greed and bloodiness have blinded the eyes of these stupid pigs, and the dirty gold has dragged their souls into the abyss.
They held up whips to whip those slaves, thinking that they were the legion that ruled the Empire of Gith. They were so stupid that they could only use exaggerated titles to deceive themselves.
After hearing that Aegon was not going to trade with them, the stone in Jon Connington's heart suddenly relaxed.
"Of course, Ser Jon, I never told you that I wanted to trade with them, right?
I don't want to easily question my decision in front of others in the future.
I accept your advice, but it's best when you're alone.
Never let outsiders see our appeal, so that they will not be able to understand our inner thoughts." Aegon said sternly towards the earl who was both a father and a courtier.
Everyone was stunned when they heard Aegon's words.
Especially Jon Clinton, he didn't expect Aegon to be able to show such mastery at such a young age. It was simply not the psychological quality he should have at his age.
"Your Majesty, it was my fault. Please forgive me. This will never happen again."
Jon Clinton knelt down on one knee and begged devoutly.
"Get up, I believe Sir Jon will never do this again." Aegon raised his hand to signal Jon to stand up and then turned to look at Daenerys:
"Dani, are you ready?
Use the Howl of the Evil One to slit the slave owner's throat and listen to the howls of these evil men.
I said, anyone who insults the Targaryens will be put to death!"
Daenerys was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then nodded seriously.
"Very good. You should train more tonight and try to review the swordsmanship you have learned in the past few months. You can ask Sir Jorah or Belwas to teach you more."
Aegon said, grabbing Daenerys's shoulders with both hands: "Remember, don't be afraid, killing a person is no different from killing a chicken.
Slit their throats and they will die slowly, and they will not resist until their bodies are eaten by flies or vultures.
That's what I was thinking when Rhys chopped off that man's head.
This dagger will be hidden under the dragon egg, and when you hand it to him, just take it out and slash it at the other person's neck."
Daenerys has never killed anyone, or even a chicken, but she has practiced swordsmanship countless times and chopped down dummies.
Maybe there is no difference, Daenerys thought after hearing what Aegon said.
Then he looked at Aegon firmly and nodded.
She vowed to fight for these people who had experienced the same suffering as her, and she could not back down at this moment.
Aegon nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Dany, you are becoming more and more like a Targaryen.
Ser Jorah, as the princess's iron guard tomorrow, you must protect the princess's safety. No matter whether her assassination is successful or not, you cannot let her be harmed!"
When Jorah Mormont heard this, he immediately knelt down on one knee and covered his chest with his hands: "I will fight for the princess until I die!"
Whether Jorah has seen the shadow of his wife Lynys in Daenerys, just based on his contact with this kind little princess during this period, he will fight for her.
At night, Daenerys returned to her room after training for a long time and was still too nervous to fall asleep.
After tossing and turning for more than an hour, I finally decided to go to the deck to relieve my mood.
"Your Majesty, aren't you sleeping either?"
Seeing Aegon standing on the deck looking at the Worm River in the distance, Daenerys said hello.
"Yes, I am thinking about tomorrow and what Astapor will do if there is no slave trade in the future."
It is actually not difficult to capture Astapor. What is difficult is how to manage Astapor well.
The productivity here is not very good, and the main income comes from the foreign exchange generated by the slave trade.
You have to find a suitable industry for them to work in.
"I heard from Missandei that the silk made by the people there is the best. Wouldn't it be great if they could come out and live here or do trade with them?"
Aegon's eyes lit up when he heard this. He stepped forward and held down Daenerys' head and kissed her forehead:
"Dani, you are so smart, you solved my trouble in one go."
Daenerys was a little confused by Aegon's kiss. It took her a long time to react and smoothed her hair around her ears.
The air fell into a long silence.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Aegon took the initiative and said, "Dany, you said you would consider becoming my queen..."
"We'll talk about this later. I'm your aunt. You should listen to me on this matter. Okay, it's a bit cold outside, so I'll go back first."
After speaking, Daenerys staggered and ran back to the cabin.
Aegon couldn't help but smile and shook his head when he saw the other person's back.
After returning to the cabin, Doria, the maid who had just slept next to her, was also awakened.
"Your Highness? What are you doing?"
"Nothing, I just went to enjoy the sea breeze, then go to sleep!"
"Oh!" Doria could only continue to lie down after hearing this.
After Daenerys lay down this time, Aegon's face still appeared in her mind and could not be dispelled for a long time. At the same time, she felt a heat flowing in her body, and her legs could not help but tighten...
