Chapter 0748: Loneliness Goes South
Will looked at Arya, walked back, sat down, and continued to eat the roast.
"Don't speak, do you really miss Sansa?" Arya flashed the look on Sansa's face when she spoke to her.
Will didn't want to speak because he felt he had nothing to say to a little girl like Arya.
Arya didn't understand anything, and neither did Sansa.
His concept of marriage is different from that of Arya, Sansa, Mia, Robb, Caitlin, and others.
He came from another world and had a different worldview.
Arya is nothing more than the hazy beginning of a little girl's love, just like Sansa.
It's just that in this world, as long as a girl is thirteen or fourteen years old, she is no longer a girl, but a woman. You have to marry and marry.
In the world before Will, all girls under the age of fourteen were underages.
Will knows Sansa's mind well, and he has an unusual blood-like connection to the humanoid life of the Ten Thousand Year Heart Tree. It's just that the Ten Thousand Year Heart Tree likes to sleep and doesn't care about the chores of these human lives.
Sansa's age, in Will's eyes, is a little girl, unworldly, untroubled, a typical flower in a greenhouse.
A flower that hasn't experienced wind and rain.
For a mature man like Will, who has been precipitated by life and death and forced to accept theism, Sansa and the now younger Arya are not objects he can accept.
He wanted to recognize the perfect woman who was mature, intelligent, beautiful, intellectually elegant. Also, it's better to be older than some little girls.
But maybe it's just a luxury.
Among the ideas of the aristocracy and the freedmen, Will was more inclined to the ideas of the freedmen. He is not disgusted or rejected by the hierarchy of the aristocracy, but he does not attach so much importance to it.
He just had to accept reality!
"You don't know me, Arya. Will sullenly said, "No one in this world can understand me. I'm alone!"
Arya looked at Will, and she realized that Will's eyes were lonely, and she was no stranger to them, and she had seen something similar in the eyes of her dance teacher, Celio Friel.
Syrio Friel taught Arya the Narrow Sword Technique: Water Dance. He is a world-wandering swordsman, no one knows where his roots are, Arya had asked the teacher, and she had hoped that the teacher would stay at Stark's house, but the teacher eventually left. Arya suspects that Syrio Friel himself doesn't know where he's going.
"What about your parents?" Arya and Will spoke casually, without cumbersome etiquette and so-called honorifics. It's as if the two of them are too familiar people.
"I was dead before I could understand it. ”
"Where's your family?"
"Haijiang City. ”
The city of the Sea is in the Riverlands, under the jurisdiction of Arya's mother, the Tully family.
"Who else?"
"Brother and sister. ”
"You haven't been back to them?"
"Nope!"
"Why?"
"Ever since I was caught stealing deer in the forest of the Merlister family, I haven't had any contact with them. In fact, after I became a thief, they swore that they would never have anything to do with me again. It's been twenty years since we broke off our relationship. ”
Arya was silent in her heart, although Will was the prime minister of the Seven Kingdoms, with a great reputation and a fierce general, he did not have a home of his own. It's like the wandering dance teacher Silio who doesn't have a root in him.
"I'll be your best friend forever!" Arya patted Will on the shoulder with a greasy hand, "Sansa Stark would be a good wife if you wanted to." She will cook for you, do the laundry, sing songs, write poems, play the piano, and also, she will give you many children so that you will not be lonely. You are a hero in her heart. ”
Will couldn't help but smile as he looked at Arya's serious appearance.
His loneliness and loneliness come from some ideas he has formed in another world, and he can't find anyone who can understand him, and that's his loneliness, not the need for a woman and a family.
How could Sansa, who was so young and embraced a deep-rooted notion of aristocratic hierarchy, understand his thoughts?
However, looking at Arya's serious and righteous appearance, Will's heart still warmed.
Although Arya can't understand him, her true feelings and righteousness are true.
"I'm not going to marry Sansa!" Will threw away the bones in his hand and wiped the grease off the back of his hand, "Okay, train tonight, imagine the shadow lynx as some ordinary thing where you won't have any fighting intent or killing intent, and when the training is over, we need to hurry up and go south." ”
"You won't marry Sansa?" Arya only cared about Will's half of the sentence, ignoring the latter words, "If you don't marry Sansa, she will die of pain." She was a fragile girl, and she would cry out in fear when she peeled a fruit and hurt her hand. Although she has many disadvantages, she also has many advantages, and many nobles want to marry her as a wife. ”
"What do you want to say?" Will stroked Arya's hair, "You don't understand anything, so don't mess around." Sansa will find the right boy hero for her. ”
"It's not that I don't understand, it's that you don't understand. Sansa is better than me as a woman, but as a warrior, she is poor. I know you prefer fighters. ”
Will smiled, he felt that talking about love with a little girl like Arya was like discussing national affairs with a kindergarten child.
Little girls, little girls under the age of fourteen, what do you know?
Will felt like an idiot to still hear Arya say so much.
A middle-aged man who has experienced the world for dozens of years and a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old discuss love, marriage and family?
"Alright, eat and sleep. One last training session of the night!" Will announced indifferently.
"Good. But I'm going to go south with you, oh, again. ”
Will was too lazy to talk nonsense with Arya, he didn't promise Arya to go south with him at all, he was a lone wolf, but Arya spread the word that she wanted to go south with him, and even got Robb's consent.
However, no matter how much the little girl plays, disagreeing is disagreeing.
Once Arya's stealth skills were complete, he rode away on his griffin. He'll need to be away from Westeros for a long time, and the Wall of Desperation needs a real agent who will directly appoint someone as the deputy commander of the entire North, who will be in charge of all things in the North after his departure, instead of the current two people - Colin the Severed and Mans Rader, the Savage King.
The West, the Vale, the Riverlands, the North, and the Great Wall are all worry-free for the time being, and if there is a fight, Kavon Lannister will not be Robb's opponent. Moreover, there is a man lurking next to Kevon who can kill him at any moment: Jon Clinton, the former prime minister of the Mad King.

Zheng!
A griffon's low chirp woke both Will and Arya.
Griffon Blaze has arrived.
Both Will and Arya smile and get up from their hammocks, and the griffin flies down, riding one man on its back: Sansa Stark. She has a beautiful figure, outstanding temperament, and a neck like a white swan. Her beauty made Will's heart move. But to arouse Will's affection, it was still — a little more immature — that if she had been ten years longer, Will believed that he would pursue her on his own initiative, ignoring any worldly eyes and trite rules.
Arya was stunned, Sansa dared to ride a griffin, how could this be? Wasn't she a cowardly girl who shed tears when a kitten died? How could a young lady who was terrified after peeling an apple and peeling a little skin dare to ride a griffin to soar in the sky?
Will was also secretly surprised in his heart.
Flame's personality is more fiery than Aquamarine, with strong attack power, ordinary people dare not approach, and sometimes it doesn't like to listen to Will's words, but it actually lets Sansa ride on his back.
Sansa was also the first person to ride a griffon's back without Will's guidance.
Do the Stark family members have a wolf side in their blood?
Will didn't know, all he knew was that Sansa was indeed riding on the back of the flames. Will could hardly imagine how much courage Sansa had to take to do this.
Sure enough, love is infinitely powerful for a girl who is deeply involved!
"Lord Will!" Sansa said condescendingly, personable, and somewhat heroic on the back of the flames, "I'm going to go south with you." Blaze had agreed. ”
Sansa glanced at a stunned Arya with triumphant eyes, and she patted the griffon's neck, and the griffin spiraled and flew into the clouds, where it became a small black dot.
"She can't go, Robb won't agree!" said Arya.
"I won't agree either!" Will said to himself.
He didn't even approve of Arya, let alone Sansa.
Did the wolf blood in these two girls ignite?
The lady girls of the Stark family are also sure that they are not to be messed with!
This time, though, Sansa impresses Will.
Not everyone can ride a griffon. But once a person is in the air, the sense of fear is directly proportional to the height of the griffin, which requires overcoming a psychological barrier. If someone rides with you, or if another griffon is flying with someone on its back, it will reduce that fear.
But Sansa didn't.
She doesn't fail to be afraid, it's just that she hides it well, or she's done a lot of preparation before that. She must not have been seen when she was embarrassed on the back of the griffin.

Winterfell.
Robb, Caitlin, Jenny, Sir Gavin, Jon Snow, Bunyan Stark, Firekiss Yagoret, Mia Stark, Sansa, Arya, Will, the Ash Twelve, Ser Harris, the First Lance of the North, Will's new squire, Sir Rosso, the fierce who was taken from Littlefinger's Five Finger Peninsula, and Sir Podrick Pine, one of the five nobles of the West, who is here because he is Will's personal bodyguard.
All of them were fierce men, but they all had another person in their clan, the King of the Seven Kingdoms, Queen Shireen Baratheon, who was only ten years old.
The queen is flanked by the fearless Barristan Selmy, the captain of the Kingsguard. Bran Stark, the Kingsguard and commander of the King's Landing garrison, is even more powerful than Robb's Grey Wind in the summer. Brienne, the virgin of Tarth, who has been pardoned by Queen Shireen and has escorted her all the way, and Sir Hale Hunt of the Southern Bends, have become Her Majesty's new Kingsguard. Brienne couldn't help it, and Hale Hunt followed Brienne closely, and no one knew how he really felt.
Because the Kingsguard is not allowed to marry unless you quit.
Her Majesty Shireen glanced at Robb, as if she had received some kind of hint, and she said, "Prime Minister, I heard that you are going to the south alone to look for dragon eggs?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. In the Southern Summer Hall, the resort of the former Targaryen family, it is likely that seven dragon eggs are still buried after the fire. ”
"Prime Minister, what will happen if you find those seven dragon eggs?"
"Hatch dragon eggs. ”
"How long does it take to raise a dragon to have combat power?"
"In three months, the dragon has a rudimentary flame combat power, and in more than a year, the dragon can conquer the sky. ”
"Okay, I agree with you to go south to find dragon eggs. But I'm worried about your safety. The Midsummer Hall in the south is under the jurisdiction of Storm's End, which has taken refuge in Kevon Lannister. ”
"I have griffins, Your Majesty. No one can assassinate me in the sky. The Midsummer Hall is also steep, and I won't fly down with the griffin if there is a situation. ”
"Your Majesty, please let me go and keep Lord Will safe. Arya said, standing up.
The fierce men around Will include the first-class swordsmanship, the brave and mighty Rosso, and the Twelve Ashes guards with the Pevaryrian steel sword. In addition, there are Chief Jon Snow of the Great Wall, the undead knight Bunyan Stark and his Sir Mouse, and the freedfolk who are the best archery in the firekiss Yagoret.
These fierce men are all stunned. They all knew that Lord Will would only go south alone.
Although the little girl was dressed in armor and said to be very powerful with the narrow sword at her waist, it was impossible for her, a young lady of the Stark family, to protect the Prime Minister, Lord Will.
"Your Majesty, it is more convenient for me to go alone. Will said lightly.
He was confident that Her Majesty Shireen would not grant Arya's request.
"No, Prime Minister. You are the Prime Minister of the Seven Kingdoms, the Guardian of the Whole Territory, the Commander-in-Chief and Leader of the Great Wall of Desperation, and you cannot afford to lose. And Miss Arya is both civil and military, courageous, swordsmanship and various combat skills have been personally instructed by adults, I hope that adults can let Arya go with her, once something happens, it is good to have a response. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Arya hurriedly stepped out of the queue and knelt down on one knee to salute the queen.
Will looked confused.
He looked at Barristan Selmy, but saw a hidden smile in the corner of the old man's eye. What does that mean? He looked at Robb, who didn't feel the slightest sense of surprise.
During the time he and Arya were training stealth in the Wolf Grove, they all muttered something to the Queen?Sir Gavin had come to him and told him about his marriage to the Starks, but he was too busy refusing. Later, after being coerced and lured, Will promised to talk about the engagement when he returned from the South.
Sir Gavin revealed that Robb, Gavin, Caitlyn, and Jenny had negotiated a compromise in the hope of hearing Will's own opinion on the marriage first.
Robb couldn't make up his mind, and it ended up in the hands of Will himself.
And in this matter, they have persuaded Her Majesty Shireen to be a witness.
Sansa is so young after all. Mia Stark is the right age and a beautiful person, but Will knows that Mia's heart is still in the dark wound of her lover Michelle, and Mia still needs time to come out. This marriage of the nobles fell on the heads of others, he supported and would help to promote it, but when things fell on his own heads, he lost his zeal.
If he needs to relax himself, there are girls' nests everywhere, and women of all colors are available.
Will postponed the marriage, but he didn't expect Her Majesty Shireen to order Arya and Will to go south together to find dragon eggs. This wasn't what Will wanted, because whether he found the egg or not, he would fly across the Narrow Sea to find Daenerys Targaryen, a secret that no one had ever been told.
Will looked at Arya, and the girl didn't hide her smugness.
Will felt that the atmosphere was wrong, as if everyone knew what was going on, but he didn't.
