Chapter 129

It has been two months since we took over King's Landing and took care of the city. It is a mess. People are starving, and a lot of people are sick. To ensure the sickness did not spread, I ordered the White Cats to work overtime and helped them occasionally.

Not only does it help the White Cats, but it also gets me positive points from the people of King's Landing. They are starving for attention and care. When I do it directly, they welcome it like a fish out of water for too long.

They even kick all the priests and the High Septon who try to condemn my new rule when they label me as a Witch King, and the Gods forbid me from ruling the Seven Kingdoms. With the help of the guild and the Black Dogs, I managed to rally people and raid the Great Sept of Baelor, and boy, did they find something in that place.

They found the High Septon, or the Pope of this continent, hoarding a lot of money. The money, he said, will be given to the people and used to feed the poor. Not only that, but they also find evidence that the High Septon kill and r*pe a lot of women.

That one is not my doing. That one is real.

As the city's current ruler, they bring the High Septon to me, and I judge him guilty. That night, another head appeared outside the city.

After two months of hard work, this city finally became bearable. The smell of shit starts to disappear, or at least not reach the Red Keep. The only reason the shit smell never reaches this place is the excessive perfume the servant uses to block the smell.

Now, even without the perfume, the smell did not reach this place.

However, much work still needs to be done before this city improves. For now, this should be enough for Dany and Rhae to visit.

I got a letter from Bakir that they will come to King's Landing and should arrive today.

"Your highness."

I snap from my thoughts when I hear someone knocking on my door.

"Come in."

After I say that, the door opens, and I can see one of the guards enter.

"What is it?"

"We got a letter from the North, your highness. It is directly from Lord Stark himself."

I nod and take the letter from him.

"Very well. You are dismissed."

"Of course, your highness."

"Oh! Before you go, tell someone that I want some tea."

"Of course, right away."

After seeing him walk out of my room, I opened the letter and read it.

"Let's see… Blah blah blah… Lord Stark of the North… Blah blah blah… Can't meet with you because of the weather and news of a movement from the north. The biggest Wildling Movement in history, and we need all our troops to defend the Wall. Huh. That is new. Wildling moves south huh? Not only that, they are now under one banner."

Something must happen for this to happen. Is this because of the Necrotic energy I feel from the north? It gets bigger and bigger every day. Tch. I need to ask the Red Priestess about this problem. She is a crazy pyromaniac, but she knows her stuff, especially about the stuff in the north.

Urgh. I just finished a war, and now another one is knocking on my door.

~Later this evening~

I hug Rhae and Danny tightly when they throw themselves at me.

"I must you, Vy!"

"En! Miss you!"

I laugh a little and spin them around briefly before putting them down.

"How are you guys?"

"We are doing great!"

"En!"

"Good. Good. Come on, I will show you around."

I take them to the Red Keep while Bakir and Melisandre follow us from behind. I show them around the Red Keep for almost an hour before we arrive in the throne room.

"Alright, you two can play around the castle for two hours, okay? I need to talk with Bakir and Melisandre for a bit."

"Okay~ Come on, Rhae!"

"Wait for me, Dany!"

I smile a little when I see them out of the throne room while the guard tries to catch up with them.

After seeing them gone, I look at Bakir and Melisandre with serious expressions.

"Follow me. We will talk in my office."

"Of course, your highness."

"Yes, my Azor Ahai."

We get inside my office and sit in front of them.

"Let's talk. Bakir, you will be first. How is the situation in the West?"

"Of course, your highness. The Western part of Westeros is getting better, your highness. At your command, we sent people who will be the new mayor of each city in the West. We also manage to take care of the problem of their harvest. The Martell is kind enough to remove their men from the west after killing all the Lannister there. With our help, people start to sing your name and are willing to accept you as their king. The noble is still grumbling, but they will not do anything about it, your highness."

"Good job. How is Tyrell?"

"The guild is monitoring them and you don't need to worry, your highness. They will not raise their army to you, especially when you bring Loras back to them. However, they will try their hardest to push their maiden to you. They are even willing to make her to be your concubine if it is to make their house still in power."

I nod at his answer. I expect as much. The Tyrell is known for their boot-licking behavior.

"What about the rest of the Reach?"

"They will not fight you, your highness. Most of their soldiers were already exhausted from the war. Not only that, but you also destroy their army in this fight. You might not know it, but they bring a lot of soldiers to the Redwyne's Fleet."

"And all of them now sink to the bottom of the ocean."

"That is right. Even without your dragon, they are too afraid to fight against our weapon."

"Good. I need you to send a letter to everyone in the Reach, saying that we buy their food for a good amount of money. Winter will only worsen from now on, and we need that food for the Westerlands and the Vale. They will be the one hit the hardest."

"What about the north?"

"They want independence, so we will give them that. However, we will not help them this winter because of their demand for this peace. We will give them a discount for food when they ask for it, but we will not give them for free."

"You are right."

"Anyway, make sure to keep an eye on the Reach."

"Of course, your highness."

After saying that, I look at Melisandre and see her smiling at me. I take a deep breath and say.

"You know the reason why I call you here."

I can see her smile turn into a frown and say.

"Of course, Azor Ahai. The Great Others have moved and the one leading them is the Lord of Darkness. If you don't stop him, the world will enter an era of Eternal Darkness where snow and ice shall cover the entire world."
