0859 Lover • It's a mistake to refuse or accept
Will wasn't entirely moved by Melisandre's whispers.
Melisandre often makes mistakes.
Moreover, now that the child is so young, how can he resist the strange ghosts?
Even if this autumn is not a short time, according to known experience, five years is the longest time, but the child will only be six or seven years old.
Can a six- or seven-year-old fight the Night King?
The youngest hero of House Stark is named Caron Stark, the founder of House Stark in modern-day Kahoe City. A thousand years ago, at the age of eleven, Caron Stark led his troops north to quell the rebellion.
In recognition of his bravery in battle, the Duke of Stark granted him a fief and a castle, and he named his castle after himself, which over time became known as Caron. Century has passed, the situation has changed, and the Stark of Kahoe City has become the Stark family today.
For a thousand years, House Karstark has been an offshoot of House Stark and has been loyal to Stark in Winterfell. This time, the people of the Karstark family also came.
Even if Little Will has the atavistic blood of the Stark family, he can't have extraordinary combat power at the age of six or seven, which is beyond common sense and logic.
Moreover, Little Will's bloodline was overwhelmingly awakened with the bloodline of the Stark family, and the power of Will's bloodline was completely crushed?
Will was skeptical of Melisandre's claims.
However, in the face of extraordinary times, this extraordinary thing happened, Will secretly took a deep breath and decided to finish the military meeting first.
Whether it is Jon Targaryen, or Will himself, or Daenerys Targaryen, or the little guy Will is the reincarnation of Asal, there is no need to guess, wait for winter to come, go to the Stark family's crypt, and see who can pull out the Lightbringer, who will naturally be the reincarnation of Asuel Ahai. Before that, all suspicions and judgments could be wrong.
Half an hour later, Will returned to the shield room, and the meeting continued.
Because he knew that Little Will was not really hurt, Will's heart was calm as usual, and everyone saw that his expression was stable and composed, so they all suppressed the doubts in their hearts, and soon, everyone entered the topic of the meeting again.
With the exception of Melisandre and Big Gilly, the rest of the people came back to continue the meeting.
The meeting lasted until dark, and everyone was at loggerheads over many details, and the meeting ended after dark, and Will announced that the meeting would resume the next day.
At night, the King's Tower in the Shield Hall.
The King's Tower was named after a Targaryen king who lived in the past, but the current King's Tower has almost completely been renovated, and it is tall and large, and it is no longer the old and decayed appearance of the past.
King Tari, Will's private room, Big Gilly comes in to Will, and the two of them talk behind closed doors.
Melisandre said that the child was the reincarnation of Asal, Ahai. Da Jili said cautiously. Her voice was low, as if she was afraid that some mysterious person in the air was stealthily eavesdropping.
"Don't believe it all, Melisandre made a lot of mistakes. Stannis I's life, the Queen's and Kingguard's, and our Warriors' lives were all lost for believing in her prophecy. The tragedy of the Red Fort was also caused by her sacrifice of the bloodline of the Red God Royal Family. Will also whispered.
Da Jili was speechless when she heard this.
"However, it is truly incredible that the child was not injured by the fire of the dragon flame. Will said again.
"Children are not ice people. "It was Priest Melisandre who told me that I had first heard of the bloodline of the Iceless. Will, am I from House Stark?"
Will always knew that Big Gilly was the Stark family's bloodline, and that Big Gilly was supposed to be surnamed Stark, but he never told Big Gilly about it. Strictly speaking, Big Gilly's name should be Big Gilly Stark. Gilly added a big word in front of it because there is another sister named Gilly, but she is younger than Gilly, so in order to distinguish the two Gilly, a big character was added in front of the sister's name.
"You are the blood of the Stark family, your ancestor, a Ranger from the Stark family, he broke away from the team without permission, married the woman of the Ghost Forest, and then bred your clan. ”
Big Gilly's eyes widened at this.
She and her mother, grandmother and sisters always thought they were savages, but they weren't at all, they were the blood of the authentic Stark family.
Will said softly, "For thousands of years, the Stark family has never stopped sending their heirs to the Great Wall to serve as night watchmen. Eight thousand years of the Great Wall, the Stark family has sent generations of descendants to become the night watchmen, and they have never stopped. From ancient times to the present day, it has been continuous. ”
Big Gilly's frightened expression gradually calmed down, and she regained her original sharpness: "Will, you have to find out how many generations belong to the Stark family for our clan, and we have the right to go to Winterfell to recognize our ancestors. ”
Will pondered for a moment and said, "I'll help you find out where your lineage comes from." In Maester Emon's library, there should be a record of the Stark who broke away from the party and married a freeman woman. Just find this person's name, and you'll be able to find your lineage in the Stark family tree in Winterfell. ”
Big Gilly's face glowed, "Will, since I'm Stark blood, then I can be worthy of you!"
"You can be worthy of me at any time, but I will not marry you, my fiancée is Arya. ”
"I'll be your lover, aren't you southern aristocrats in a popular lover relationship?"
"No!"
"No!" said Big Gilly softly but firmly.
Will felt a headache, he didn't know what Big Gilly and Arya had said behind closed doors that night in Mole Village, but he could know that Arya's eyes were watching him in the air.
He dared to promise Da Jili to be his mistress, would Arya do something terrible? If she didn't hurt others, wouldn't she hurt herself.
"I arrived before Arya, and I'm Stark. Big Gilly said again.
Will looked at Big Gilly, was silent for a while, and said, "What is an icebreaker?"
The statement was abrupt, but Will was serious.
"We already have a child, and he's very talented. Da Jili whispered again.
The two of them were talking to themselves, and the bull's head and the horse's mouth were stiffly opposed.
"What is an icebreaker? Will insisted.
Big Gilly stared into Will's eyes and said, "There are those who don't burn, and there are those who don't ice." The Unburner is an atavistic phenomenon of the Targaryen family bloodline, which belongs to the true dragon bloodline. The Ice Immortal is an atavistic phenomenon of the Stark family, and belongs to the Ice Bloodline. There is a cold magic in the blood, and it is not afraid of any cold. ”
"Not even afraid of Dragon Flame?"
"Yes. Priestess Melisandre told me that the Night King was a Stark who was not even afraid of dragon fire, and that Valyrian Steel Sword could not hurt him, and she said that it was fortunate that the God of Cold, over the years, had found a bloodline of the Ice Immortal to create a Night King. If the god of cold doesn't have the Night King, he won't be able to wage war in winter."
Chapter 0859 2 If it's gone, it's never coming back
"Why do I feel panicked when I listen to you? Will said.
"What are you afraid of?"
"The cold god needs the non-ice, just as the red god needs the non-burner, so, if our child is really the non-ice, what will the cold god do to him?"
"He's on this side of the Great Wall, and this side of the Great Wall belongs to the Red Gods, the Seven Gods, the Old and New Gods. Big Gilly comforted Will.
"God can cross boundaries. ”
"The god of cold does not dare to cross the Great Wall of Desperation in the summer. ”
"Why can't we, we can all cross the Great Wall of Despair, why can't he?"
Big Jili opened her mouth and said after a while, "What can you do in your opinion?"
Will paced around the room.
He wanted to send Little Will to Winterfell, but Lady Caitlyn wouldn't accept it. First, he is Arya's fiancé, but nominally Sansa's, and he suddenly takes one of his illegitimate children to Winterfell and asks them to help raise them, which is a humiliation that no nobleman can accept.
There is no distinction between illegitimate children and concubines among the freedmen, but the nobles do, and they take this matter very seriously.
Of course, there is another way, which is to conceal the identity of Little Will, saying that he is not Will's son, and go in the name of another person.
This is possible, but Will can't get past it himself.
In the face of his son, he didn't dare to admit it, he couldn't do it. When he arrives in Winterfell, he sees his son, but asks him to call him uncle, and Will can't accept such a thing.
"What did Melisandre say?"
She said Little Will had to take her training. ”
Will chuckled inwardly.
"Melisandre doesn't know how to use swordsmanship, and she can't wield a sword at such a young age. ”
"Melisandre will teach him magical powers, the magical powers of ice and fire. ”
"Melisandre is a priestess of the Red God, how can she be icy magically?"
She used the flames to bring out the instinctive cold power in the child's body. In the extreme cold, on the Great Wall, she and her children can be blessed with magical powers. Little Will is blessed with more magical power, because the ice and snow here are the most suitable environment for Little Will's non-ice physique, and it is also the best environment. ”
Will paced silently again, admitting that Big Gilly's words had a point.
"Okay, I'll arrange for Jaime Lannister and Podrick to protect Little Will. Will said.
"I'm afraid that arranging for someone to suddenly protect Little Will will attract people's attention?" said Big Jili worriedly.
"It's okay, let Melisandre announce that Little Will is getting worse from the Dragonburn burns, and it makes sense for me to send my own guards to protect him. It is only natural for a father to love his children. Will said.
"Good!" accepted Big Gilly.
"Jaime's swordsmanship is unmatched, and Podrick's simplicity and loyalty come first, never in doubt. ”
"What about Podrick's swordsmanship?"
"Your whole family together can beat him. Will smiled.
"What about Jaime?"
"Your whole family together will be killed by him. He only delved into swordsmanship, and he didn't need to bother him usually. He wants to do what he wants to do. ”
"What if he leaves?"
"He's never going to leave. ”
"Good!" said Big Gilly. She reached out with both hands and hugged Will, who was gently blocked by Will's outstretched hand.
Big Gilly looked at Will expectantly, but Will's eyes looked out and there was a vision in front of him. In the lonely Mole Village, Big Gilly watched the snow fall alone.
He's not alone anymore!
But Big Gilly will always be!
"Tell Melisandre not to kill the apprentice Aven, it's an order. Will uttered another utter utter that was utterly out of place.
Big Gilly took a step back, put her hands down, and said, "Okay!" Her tone was lightened by intimacy, giving Will a little stranger distance.
"Thank you for giving me a child!" Will felt a faint bitterness welling up in his lips.
Big Jili smiled slightly: "Lord Will, goodbye." ”
She addressed Will with the word "adult".
Will smiled, "Goodbye!"
Big Gilly pushed the door open, and Arya stood right outside.
"Miss Arya, goodbye. Big Gilly's tone was calm, without a smile.
"Big Gilly......" Arya said.
Big Gilly has gone far. She's so fast.
Arya came in, closed the door, and said softly, "Apprentice Evan is dead. ”
Will chuckled in his heart, then regained his composure, and he felt his heart become cold and hard in a rare way: "Hmm!"
"The cause of death is very strange, there is no sword wound, so he died in the study of the Bachelor's Tower for no reason. Arya stared at Will, "Did Melisandre do it?"
“............“
"Why?"
"Can you not ask that question?"
"Just because he was derelict in guarding the dragon, and Dragon Burn hurt Little Will?" said Arya, with obvious displeasure in her tone.
"Not for this reason. ”
"What's the reason for that, I've been to see Little Will, his injuries are starting to worsen, and blisters are appearing on his face. Evan did commit a mistake, but he didn't sin unto death. Maester Immon Targaryen was saddened. ”
Will didn't feel good either.
His orders were given a little late, which led to the end of a life. He had hoped to maintain a friendly relationship with Da Jili, just like the original good relationship when there was no personal feelings, but he found that that kind of relationship was completely impossible.
Emotional things, once in the past, will never come back. The good of the past can only be the past.
Will said, "It's complicated, can I not need to explain it to you." ”
Arya stared at Will, "You're in a bad mood, because of Big Gilly, she's a good person, and she's very affectionate to you." She gave birth to you and had no intention of marrying you. She is a free people outside the Great Wall, although they call themselves free people, but she knows that we call her a wild man, and she doesn't want to affect your prestige, so she just has a relationship with you, but she doesn't ask for any name. ”
"Free people have no name, they just stay together if they like it, and choose to separate if they don't like it. If you are pregnant, you will give birth to a child, and if you don't want it, you will drink moon tea and beat it off. The thoughts, morals, associations and beliefs of the freemen are very different from ours. ”
"How do you feel about her, like her, love her, or passively accept a relationship?" said Arya, a little endlessly.
Will glanced at Arya and didn't answer the question, "I'm going to see Aven, are you going?"
"I'm not going, there's a woman waiting outside to see you. ”
"Who?"
"Asha Greyjoy!"
