Chapter 0997: The Wrath of the Sea God
Jenny Westerling looked at the saint from Ganlayani and smiled appreciatively at her natural decorated beauty.
Arrene Martell's gaze withdrew from the saint's body and fell on the demon mountain.
The magic mountain is as immovable as a mountain, majestic and respectful.
From the expression of the Magic Mountain, Aliann could not see that the Magic Mountain had any impure thoughts.
Many of the men in the palace hall showed 'disrespect' to the holy woman, which made Arlene full of contempt for these nobles.
Daenerys looks at Gina Bella, who herself is also a beautiful embryo who turns all beings upside down, but she is also attracted to Gina's beauty. Gina's beauty is as pure as snow. If the world is a jar of sludge, then Gina is a delicate lotus that grows out of the sludge.
Beauty purifies the heart and quiets impetuousness.
Except, of course, for those livestock.
Daenerys also noticed the gaffes of the Dothraki soldiers and noble generals towards Gina's beauty, but her Unsullied soldiers showed iron self-discipline. Although the Unsullied soldiers are all eunuchs, in fact, their love for the opposite sex is the same, and this love comes from psychological desire.

Gina Bella stood in the King's Hall like a white light.
And Count Horace Redwin, who was next to Gina Bella, was as ugly as a toad.
The toad is paired with a white swan!
Count Horace Redwyn survived the naval battle and fought his way out of Quells's naval encirclement with two guns, and for a long time, Horace Redwyn was a hero of Westeros who had already been killed. - When he miraculously reappeared in the waters of Quells, and returned with the holy woman of the island of Ganrayani in the east, before he knew it, he was no longer the hero of the battle in the mouth of the soldiers of Westeros, but he became the ugly man who married the saint, a shameful defeated, and an unacceptably incompetent lucky one.
"Count Horace, how did you marry such a beauty? Queen Jenny asked in public.
Moshan also had doubts about this question, but Moshan didn't ask Janie directly. A woman's gossip heart is far better than that of a man, and the queen is no exception.
Horace Redwin glanced at his wife, Gina, Bella, and her face was full of pride, Gina's beauty and fairy-like temperament satisfied his greatest vanity, and Gina's beauty also satisfied all his best fantasies about women.
"Gina, can I say that?" asked Horace's eyes.
Gina's smile was as sweet and touching as golden transparent honey, and her eyes said: "Horace, I am already your wife, and the customs and beliefs of Ganlayani have been changed by you, so you can say whatever you want." β
Horace Redwin took Gina's small hand and shook it gently in thanks.
On the island of Ganrayani, Horace learns that there are some things that cannot be said casually. Unlike Westeros, there are some taboos on the island, and the customs and beliefs on the island of Gangrayani are not to be desecrated, which can cause serious problems.
Horace Redwyn only decided to tell Queen Jenny the truth with the consent of his wife, Gina. Horace was an aristocratic young man with little ability, but her affection and respect for his wife, Gina, was exemplary of all men.
"Your Majesty, on the island of Gangrayani, every fifteenth year in July, people will flock to the sea to worship the god of the sea, and the strangers who appear on the beach on this day will be regarded as the sons of the gods sent by the god of the sea. After our defeat in the Quels Sea, my soldiers and I fled eastward and lost our way into the center of the storm. When the storm subsided and we were lucky enough to survive, we saw the dark shadow of the land in the distance, the small silhouette of the Ganrayani Islands on the sea. β
"Our two warships approached the island cautiously, and then found that the people of the island were dressed and sailed out to meet us. We saw that there were no soldiers on the approaching ship, but mostly young men and women in costume, and they had no weapons in their hands, so we let our guard down. When the ships came ashore, I went ashore as the leader of the army and begged them for help with food and water, but the men and women among them pressed me to the ground, unsipped off my sword and armor, stripped me naked, and to the laughter of the soldiers, I was dressed and sent into a stone house by the sea decorated with flowers, spices, and pearls, and that night I was married to the holy woman, who had been wearing a white veil over her face. The next morning, the holy woman removed the veil, and I realized that I had married the most beautiful bride in the world. β
"Gina took off her towel the next morning?" asked Jenny.
"Yes, Your Majesty. This is the rule on the island of Gangrayani. β
"Is this the rule for all brides?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. When the first night of the wedding has passed, the bride is truly considered to belong to her husband, and she can remove her veil. β
"Oh, what a novelty custom. β
"Your Majesty, there are many customs on the island of Gangrayani that are different from ours in Westeros, but none of them are there, and the real unacceptable ones are yet to comeβten days later, while I was still indulging in the sweetness of my newlywed, Gina Bella whispered to me that I must leave the island of Gangrayani overnight, or I and my soldiers would be killed. β
"Oh?!" said Jenny, her eyes widened in surprise.
In the throne hall, there were also Arya Stark, Senior Sister Longface and Senior Sister Xiaokui, and the three core members of the Faceless Organization all moved slightly.
It was also the first time they had heard of this custom on the island of Ganrayani in the eastern sea.
There must have been navigators among the Quells who knew the customs of the Ganlayani Island, and most of these navigators would tell the nobles of Quells what they had seen, but in the Hall of the Thrones, the Quells nobles stood on the left side of the hall, and they all became spectators and listeners.
On the right, in the courtiers of the Magic Mountain, several new characters have been added, they are Earl Tommen Lannister, Messira Lannister, Lady Connie, and Sir Jaime Lannister.
Tomman, Messella, and Connie all listened with relish, and their faces were met with amazement.
Jaime had changed into a fitting scale armor, a long sword hanging from his waist, his golden hair was cleaned, and the beard on his face and chin was shaved off, and the graceful and handsome Sir Jaime of the past returned.
Jaime's expression was indifferent, seemingly unaffected by Gina Bella's beauty, and he also reacted indifferently to Horace's 'legendary' story.
*
"Your Majesty, I was stunned when I heard Gina say that if I did not flee overnight, I and my men would be killed. I don't know why, Gina told me that it was the custom of the island, that the Divine Son who married the Holy Maiden had to return to the sea after ten days, and that if the Divine Son did not leave, the people of the island would have to kill him and throw him into the sea. β
"What a foolish custom. Queen Jenny thought. She certainly didn't say it.
There were many people in the hall who thought the same thing as the queen, but of course none of them said it. The king sat here, and no one dared to interject casually.
"I don't want to die, but I don't want to lose Gina either, so I said to Gina, since I am the embodiment of the god of the sea that you believe and the son of the god of the sea, then you must listen to me, and you must not disobey my orders, otherwise you will attract the wrath of the god of the sea. I'm going to stay, I'm going to live with Gina, or I'm leaving, I'm going to have to take Gina with me. I asked Gina to tell the high priest on the island what I said, but I didn't convince the high priest. If I insist on staying on the island, once it is dawn, on the morning of the eleventh day, I and my soldiers will be killed by the soldiers of the island led by the high priest. But until the morning of the eleventh day, the soldiers and I were absolutely safe. β
"At that time, I believe that Gina also fell in love with me for ten days. During these ten days together, I let Gina learn about a whole new world, about a continent of Westeros thousands of miles away, and also about the His Majesty the King and Queen to whom I am loyal, as well as the invincible dragons and the Clegan Legion, the Dothraki cavalry, the Unsullied, the Faith of the Seven Gods, the Red God Faith, the legend of the Faceless Ones of the Black and White Courtyard, etc., etc., Gina is full of curiosity and fantasy about the world I am talking about, and she longs to be able to go to Westeros with me, and to be able to look up at the dragons flying in the sky together......"
"How did you finally convince the High Priest, Count Horace?" said Janie.
"Poseidon's wrath. Horace laughed, rather proud, "Before leaving, I wrote the 'Wrath of the Sea God' in the language of Ganrayani that I learned and left it to the high priest of the island, and I told her that if she did not let me be reconciled with the Holy Maiden of Gina for a hundred years, Ganlayani would anger the sea god, and the sea god would be angry, and Ganrayani would be destroyed and cease to exist. Thank you to His Majesty the King for inventing that amazing artillery. β
"Your Poseidon's wrath is artillery?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. In order to survive, my soldiers and I boarded the ship overnight and left the island of Ganlayani. The next day, our ship reappeared in the sea not far from the island, which could not be allowed. The High Priest gathered three hundred warships from all over the island to surround us, and there were only two firebombs left on our two warships. I fired the first artillery shell, and with a loud bang, the flagship of the High Priest was blown in two, and the broken hull sank into the sea, leaving a huge swirl of water on the sponge. I tell the admirals of the stunned island of Ganrayani that I am the son of the god of the sea, this is the wrath of the god of the sea, the Holy Maiden of Gina is your leader, and I am the son of the god of the sea, I must marry Gina, or stay with Gina for the rest of my life, otherwise, the wrath of the god will destroy the whole of Ganlayani. β
"My wife, Gina Bella, also stepped forward and boarded my ship with the help of the soldiers of her family, who demanded that all the navy soldiers of Gangrayani lay down their arms and accept Horace, the son of the god of the sea. Then things went on and we were back on the island, and the people accepted the marriage of the son of the god of the sea and their holy daughter. I asked Gina to send Gangrayani's scouts to Quells to inquire about the situation, and I received news that His Majesty had conquered Quells. I persuaded Gina, and we sailed to Quells to see His Majesty the King. Horace Redwyn was always a courtier of His Majesty's King, loyal and fearless, and never betrayed. β
"Count Horace Redwin, your loyalty to His Majesty has been proven, and your legend and glory will be written down in the history books of the Royal Bachelor. Queen Jane said solemnly.
Magic Mountain nodded slightly, agreeing with Queen Janie's conclusion.
The Magic Mountain said, "Count Horace, are you and Gina going to settle in Westeros or Ganlayani in the future?"
"Settle in Ganrayani, Your Majesty. But I'll take Gina to Westeros, to King's Landing, to the North, to see the Wall, to Old Town, to Bachelor's City, to Qingting Island, to see our vineyards. β
"Yes, but we will soon continue our crusade, and I want you and the soldiers of Ganrayani to join us in our crusade. β
"Your Majesty, I have not been idle in the days of Ganlayani's life, and I told Gina that our army would continue its crusade to the east, and Gina sent letters to Yasha, Tenasi, Watts, Arsalam, Little, Sumant, Stannet, etc., hoping that they would send messengers to Quells to submit to Your Majesty. The island nations of the Ganrayani neighborhood soon sent emissaries to me and Gina, who were skeptical of His Majesty's might and the presence of the dragon, but who offered to submit if what I said was true. β
"This time, Gina Birla has come to meet His Majesty the King on behalf of the other seven island nations, and to meet His Majesty's dragons, Dothraki cavalry, unsullied warriors, and Quells navy, and when Gina returns, she will tell the kings of the seven island nations what she has seen. Next time, Gina will bring more island kings to meet His Majesty and pay homage to His Majesty. β
Horace Redwin's words exceeded the expectations of the Magic Mountain.
Horace's words also surprised Asha, Theon, Jaime, Jorah Mormont, Daenerys, Janie, Alian, and others.
Everyone underestimated the freckled Horace, who had been nicknamed 'Slugging' when he was a courtier in King's Landing.
The Magic Mountain looked at Horace, looked at Gina, and said solemnly: "Count Horace Redwin, when you and the Holy Maiden of Gina come to submit with the kings of the seven island nations, I will appoint you as the governor of the Eastern Seas, and Gina as the Holy Maiden of the Eastern Seas, and you and Gina will be in charge of all the island countries east of Quells. β
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Horace Redwin was overjoyed and got down on one knee. He stretched out his hand and pulled Ragina Bella's small hand, and Gina understood, so she also knelt down on one knee.
In his married life with Gina, Horace has trained Gina, who is pure and has never been out of Gangrayani's island, well, and Gina has also learned a lot of royal rules that distinguish her from Gangrayani.
"Get up!" said the Magic Mountain.
Horace Redwyn squeezed Gina's small hand, and Gina uttered the Westeros lingua franca in a unique exotic tone: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Jaime watched from the sidelines, believing that Horace might be stupid in battle, but he was sophisticated in his human world.
As long as His Majesty the King and the Eastern Crusade, even if Horace wanted to secretly live a stable life with the Holy Maiden, it would be impossible. His Majesty is riding the dragon in the sky, thousands of warships are coming, and Ganrayani will either destroy or surrender, so of course, it is better to persuade Gina to come and surrender earlier.
