Chapter 0721 The Truth About the Thing That Planted the Root of the Future
Rees is the closest free trade city-state to Valantis.
There are nine free trade city-states on the continent of Essos, Rees is a city-state built on an island, and Valantis is a port city built on the seaside.
The Mademoiselle set sail late at night and sailed towards Valantis near the sea. Valantis is east of the city of Reese. The Stone Steps, the famous pirate colony, is northwest of Reece City, and the direction in which the Mademoiselle sails avoids the pirate colony, which makes everyone feel more at ease.
The ship's guards and knights were not afraid of pirates, they were afraid of getting into trouble, mainly because there was an Aegon Targaryen on board. Anyone can die, but Aegon Targaryen can't do anything, if he has something, everyone's hard work for more than ten years of hard work will be wasted.
The three little dragons are beginning to have combat power, which is also where everyone's hope lies.
The next morning, little Griff woke up, his face calm. The Mademoiselle was sailing steadily forward, judging by the direction of the sun, and it was heading east.
The nearest great city in the East is Valantis, a city famous for its slave trade. Valantis was a hub connecting the slave trade between East and West.
Little Griff came out of the room, and Mrs. Elisi sat behind the long table: "Little Griff, it's time for breakfast." Mrs. Elisi picked up the boiled egg, "Do you want me to peel the egg?" ”
"No, I don't have an appetite. Little Griff looked guilty, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Elisi, because of my fault, I caused you to leave Reese. ”
"Do you really know you're wrong?" Lady Elisi's eyes scrutinized.
This look made little Griff's heart very uncomfortable, but his expression was sincere and full of apologies: "I really know that I am wrong, Mrs. Elisi, I am going to see Mrs. Lemore, and I am going to pray to the gods and ask for their forgiveness." ”
Illisy shook his head: "Mrs. Lemore is with the duck and the half-bachelor in the front cabin, you go and apologize to Mrs. Lemore yourself." Mrs. Elisi's face softened. Little Griff's sincere confession of mistake made her unbearable to blame, and little Griff was still a child after all. Because he was very fair-skinned, thin, and not tall, he looked younger than his real age. But he's actually not young, he's sixteen years old.
"Yes, ma'am!" said little Griff, after thanking Mrs. Elixi, and went to the forward cabin. There was a small table in the middle of the front cabin, where Sister Lemore, Sir Raleigh Duck, Sir Casper Leo the Killer, and Hagel, the Half-Hanged Bachelor, sat on one side and discussed something in a low voice.
The four of them turned around when they heard the footsteps and saw little Griff with an apologetic face.
"Madame, sir, sir, I was wrong, and I have come to apologize to you. Little Griff's eyes were full of apologies, and the expression on his face was sincere.
Sir Bachelor and Sister both looked at Little Griff together.
After a long while, Hagel said, "Little Griff, you are sixteen years old, and we have neglected your needs. You're looking for a girl, and it doesn't look like a serious problem. But what I don't understand is why you killed both girls. You have always been courteous, kind-hearted, considerate, well-mannered, reasonable, can you tell us what happened last night?"
Little Griff's face immediately flushed, and he couldn't say anything when he opened his mouth several times.
"Say it, little Griff, I probably don't blame you. If you hadn't caused the problem, I probably wouldn't have told Old Greeve about it. Sister Lady Lemore said.
Little Griff's flushed face slowly calmed down: "Madam, Bachelor, they laughed at me for being a ...... It's a ...... It's a ......."
"It's a virgin, isn't it?" laughed the killer Casper.
Little Griff's face flushed again, and he lowered his head and looked at his toes.
"Little Griff, they laugh at you for being a virgin, and you can't just kill them, it's not in your character, is there anything they say in addition to that. ”
“...... Yes!" little Griff was a little embarrassed, "they said a lot...... Those words...... Those terrible words......"
"Hmm. And then!" laughed the killer, "little Griff, go to the girls' den, the girls are supposed to say those things to get emotional." ”
The nun, the killer, the duck, and the maester all saw what little Griff was hiding and wouldn't tell.
"Come on, little Griff. Sister Madame Lemore said softly.
It's understandable that a child is sixteen years old and has developed a curiosity about a woman's body, especially in the middle of a rough man like a duck and a killer. But according to the child's meekness and respect, the words of the girls would not have provoked him to the point of drawing his sword and killing him.
With Mrs. Lemore's encouragement, little Griff finally mustered up the courage and stammered: "...... They look at me...... It's very restrained...... Laugh at me for being a country idiot...... One of the girls proposed to play a game......"
"What game?" said the killer with great interest.
Little Griff was silent.
His expression was heavy, and just when everyone was in a strange mood, little Griff turned around and unbuttoned his robe, he was not wearing underwear, because he had come to show his scars, he had thought carefully and had already thought of all the words.
The sleeves of her robe slipped down, and Sister Lemore exclaimed. Hagel's face turned ugly. Both the killer and the duck were completely stunned.
Little Griff's back was crisscrossed with shocking bloodstains, all of which looked like they had been whipped from a whip. Sister Lemore's heart ached, and she and old Griff raised little Griff, educated him, trained him, and little Griff was their own son. For the sake of little Griff, Old Griff did not marry a wife or touch a woman for more than ten years.
Little Griff's back scar made Sister Lemore feel unbalanced, and tears instantly filled her eyes.
The killer turned his gaze and stared at the duck, "Duck, how are you protecting little Griff?"
The duck muttered, "I, I, I'm outside the room, I'm asleep." ”
Little Griff's face was full of guilt: "I'm sorry, Sir Duck, I don't blame you for this, I blame me for my inexperience, and I don't know what the game those two girls play is...... So...... Absolutely unforgivable, they smiled sweetly and gently tied my hands and feet, I had no idea what they wanted to do, they used it, they used it, they used it, they ......used it, they
"And with what?" the killer snapped.
“...... Use...... Use...... Use...... Their shorts...... Stuffed into my mouth...... They humiliated me so badly...... Their malice...... I can't forgive!"
Sister Lemore broke down inside, she reached out to cover her face, tears of self-reproach welling up from her fingers, she had taken little Griff as her own child, it was an uncontrollable pain from motherhood.
The killer slapped the table and said angrily, "When our dragon grows up, the first thing we will do is to burn all the city of Reece to the ground." ”
The duck said coldly: "Don't wait for the dragon to grow up, when we meet Daenerys, I will borrow troops to destroy Reese City." ”
At this point, the fate of the free trade city-state of Lisbon was destined in advance to suffer a brutal bloodbath.
It may not be much of a pleasure in the girls' den in Reese City, and the quirky benefactors do like to play it, but little Griff is different, he is not an ordinary man, he is a true dragon who cannot be humiliated, he is only sixteen years old, he is a virgin, and more importantly - he is Aegon VI Targaryen.
