Chapter 47

"Hmmm, ask Braavos to stop their export to the Western? I will try. However, you know that your plan is not really good if they ally with the Reach, right? Not only that, it will take a LOT of poison to make the Western need for food. While they are not as big as the other kingdoms, they still have a large territory."

I look at my brother-in-law while sipping on my tea.

"Ah, that can be taken care of. The main ingredient for this poison is very common. You can say that this ingredient grows too much, and we need to do daily cleaning."

"Hmmm, what kind of plant are you talking about?"

"Plant? What makes you think it was a plant?"

"You need to do daily cleaning; that means it can quickly grow. The only animal I can think of that you can hunt on a large scale is a fly, but I have a feeling you did not use a fly for this poison."

I can see him smirking at me before taking out a yellow grass from his pocket.

"This is Desert Grass. Just like its name suggests, this thing grows in desert areas, but they can also grow in dry and very hot places."

"Basically all Dorne."

"Aye. The northern part of Dorne is spared from this pest, most of them anyway. This thing can grow without water, and they grow very fast."

"Hmmm, then I don't see the reason why you are here. You already have all the need to do your revenge, and I will try to convince the Sealord of Braavos to cut their ties to the Western."

"Ah, I came here to ask you about the second ingredient."

"Oh? What is it?"

"The leaves from the Ashen Tree."

"Ah, I see. That is easy."

Ashen tree is a local tree that grows in Lys. The name comes from the color of the tree, gray. From the tree's root to the leaves, it is only colored gray.

While its look is like the look of a ghost tree, this tree has many uses. The most use of this tree is to make ships. The reason is that this tree is not easy to catch on fire and is also very durable.

"Do you want to buy them?"

"Can't we have them for free? We only need the leaves, not the log."

"That depends. How much? The Ashen Tree's lead also has other uses."

"Oh?"

"It can heal burn wounds."

Yes. Other than its log, we use the leaf to make a potion—a cure for burn wounds. The ingredient to make this potion is very common, and not only that, anyone can make this potion.

"Oh? Can I have the recipe and method to make it?"

"Sure."

"What? I was joking, you know?"

"Nah, this potion is very common and not a secret. You can have it. Just ask Rikos about it. Tell him you have my consent."

"Thank you. For now, can we have seven trees worth of leaves?"

"That's it?"

"I don't think you understand how many leaves are in a single tree."

I raise my finger before putting them down a second later. Right. I forget that one tree may have more than ten thousand leaves.

"Right. Sure. You can have them for free. I forgot just how many leaves are in one Ashen Tree. I will tell Bakir to tell the carpenter to pull out all the leaves. It should be ready when you and your party are ready to leave."

"Thank you. If there is anything we can do, please tell me."

"I will. Is there anything else?"

"At the moment? Nothing. I also need to go check on my brother. He knows how to behave most of the time, but he cannot hold himself when there are so many Valyran descents in the Pillow House. I don't want him to cause any problem."

"Hmmm, wait a minute. I will write something."

I take a piece of paper and start to write before stamping with my family sigil.

"Here. Give this letter to the madam that handles any brothel, and she will send some of her ladies to your room."

"You know that he will not leave his room from now on, right?"

"Sounds like a win-win situation to me."

"Just make sure he does not die while fucking all of them."

"Ha! Sure, I will make sure my brother does not tarnish Lunaria's good name."

After taking the letter, he walked away from my room and left me alone inside my room. Hmmm, I wonder if his plan will work. While I did not have as much hate as Doran and Oberyn, I still hate the Lannister.

Not only did they decide to kill my sister-in-law and r*pe her, but they also decided to send someone to hunt Dany and me when we did nothing wrong.

I hummed a little before taking out the book from the drawer. This book is my current progress in my magic. It looks like I get what many people call specialization. While I can still learn any kind of magic, there is a certain magic that I learn faster, and I know about them.

Space and Gravity.

I can carry at least seven hundred kilos of items, and I can even compress them. With the combination of both space and gravity, I can compress something and reduce its size. I can turn a massive and heavy boulder into a pebble.

The size is different, but the weight is the same.

I can already have a gore vision if I use this technique on humans. Place my attack in the center of their body and make a gravitational pull. Their bodies will be compressed into balls made of flesh and blood.

That will be a gruesome sight.

I shake my head and decide to forget that sight.

The other thing I learned is how to make a portal. I CAN make a portal, but I cannot walk through them just yet. Even when the two portals are only a meter away, I can feel my mana almost depleted once something passes it.

And it was a small grape. I have a feeling I will die from mana exhaustion if I walk past that portal.

I really need to grow my mana capacity fast because all of my new magic spells require a large amount of mana. Especially when the mana around the world starts to increase, it is already double the amount of mana in the air than before.

"Now, let's get exercise."

I take a deep breath and let my body float a little. I also make the quill float and let it start to write something on the paper that I have prepared.

This is my daily exercise. I will sit in the air and train my control by writing something. I try to make a novel while doing this exercise, but I need to improve my control before I can make it because I cannot read anything when I use it.

I also let my spell feed me by making the spoon and fork float to scoop the food into my mouth.

When my mana was almost running out, I stopped and let it feel up. I also made sure I did not get unconscious so as not to worry the others.

I hope I will have a large enough mana pool to create a portal to go anywhere in this kingdom.
