Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord - Chapter 191

c191 Missandei

Gavin’s eyes slowly fell on the beaten slave girl.

She is young, similar to Daenerys, with a slightly bronzed complexion. She wears a cool linen dress. The thin fabric flutters gently in the breeze, making her figure even more frail.

There is a locket representing a slave around her neck. Under the sun, the cold metal shines dimly, as if telling the helplessness of her fate.

Gavin’s heart moved, and he immediately realized that this was Daenerys’ best friend Missandei in the original play, a slave girl who was proficient in more than ten languages. In a place with dozens of languages ​​in Essos, she knew so much Language people are indeed a rare talent.

Gavin narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he recovered his thoughts and nodded slightly.

Then, the Blood Dragon Guard behind him placed several heavy wooden boxes on the ground and opened them one by one.

In an instant, countless pieces of golden gold shone with dazzling light, as if the brilliance of the sun was concentrated in this small space.

Krazny’s eyes were instantly attracted to the boxes of golden dragons, and greed spread unabashedly in his eyes. He walked towards the gold involuntarily, with eager steps, as if being pulled by a mysterious force, wanting to touch these symbols of wealth with his own hands.

However, before Krazny could get closer, the Blood Dragon Guard quickly stepped forward to stop him.

Gavin’s voice was cold and firm: “I want the best for all the weapons and equipment. I can add money, but I can’t just make up for it.”

After hearing this, Krazny showed an impatient look on his face, and he said loudly: “Of course, among all the good lords, I, Krazny, am the most trustworthy and equipped with the best weapons.”

After hearing this, Gavin did not go any further on this issue. He turned his eyes slightly and said, “I still want her.” As he said that, he pointed his finger at Missandei. Since he had met her, Gavin decided to buy her. It was given to Daenerys as a maid. As for Qian Gawen, he didn’t care. Anyway, it was temporarily stored in Krazny’s hands.

Krazny first looked at Missandei in confusion, then turned to look at Gavin, with a meaningful look on his face, and said arrogantly: “This is not for sale, even though she is a slave, she is helpful to me. It’s huge, and she knows more than a dozen languages, and you know, not every guest knows Valyrian.”

Gavin seemed not to hear his rejection and responded calmly: “Five hundred gold dragons.”

Krazny showed a proud smile on his face and said loudly: “No, I have to double it.”

“Deal! I want to get the whip as soon as possible. I won’t leave Astapor in a short time. I also want a place to stay.” Gavin’s tone was decisive and left no room for doubt.

Then, the Blood Dragon Guard stepped aside, no longer stopping Krazny, and allowed him to count the money.

While stroking the golden dragon, Krazny said: “Of course, once I am sure that the gold is okay, I will give you the whip before sunset. As for the residence, I happen to have a place in the city that can accommodate three thousand people. As long as you give me the money, you can You can stay as long as you want.”

Krazny Monacroz was indeed as good as his word, extremely trustworthy in his dealings. After confirming the number of golden dragons, he immediately held a handover ceremony for the new whip in front of Gavin, and the quality of the weapons sent subsequently was indeed good.

Objectively speaking, when Krazny was burned to death by Drogon in the original play, it was Daenerys who acted somewhat unfairly.

As the ruling good lord of Astapor and a noble of Gith, Krazny also holds thousands of Unsullied. If he wanted the dragon, he could have snatched it when he saw Daenerys.

At that time, Daenerys had no army and no property. Not only was she in exile, but the three young dragons also had little fighting power, so the risk and cost of robbery was almost zero.

But Krazny did not do this. He summoned all the Good Lords and persuaded them to pay 8,000 Unsullied in exchange for the dragon, and brokered the deal. But I didn’t expect that in the end, the dragon didn’t get it and lost his life. Even Astapor was captured.

Gavin carefully looked at the whip of the harpy in his hand. The whip was made of tough black cowhide. The cowhide had been specially treated and felt full of texture. The main body of the grip is made of hard walnut wood, and the exterior is decorated with gold wrapping.

The harpy, a symbol of the Empire of Gith, is inscribed on it. This fantasy creature has the body of a woman, clawed wings, and a twisted scorpion tail. A heavy chain hangs from its claws, one unclosed at each end. of shackles. The exquisite patterns represent the former glory and glory of the Gith Empire.

After using the whip to simply command the Unsullied a few times, Gavin felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

The uniform movements and unhesitating obedience made him truly feel the strong discipline of this army.

Except for the Blood Dragon Guard, he rarely experienced such a high degree of obedience in other armies.

Slowly putting down the whip in his hand, Gavin looked at Krazny, who was directing the slaves to carry the golden dragon, and asked: “Is it okay if I order them to only be loyal to me instead of this whip?”

After hearing this, Kraznys showed an impatient look on his face and said loudly: “Of course, the premise is that they will remember you and hold another handover ceremony like the one just now. Many guests will do this, and we will also help host the ceremony when the guests purchase. The only trouble is that the ceremony is more complicated than the previous one, and you can only go in person if you want to mobilize the Unsullied in the future. If you can’t get away, no one can command the Unsullied. The Unsullied are only loyal to one person or one object at the same time. Unsullied officers can only command battles. They have no feelings, and things without thoughts are not as good as servants.”

After listening to this, Gavin understood. For the good masters, the Unsullied are just tools for fighting, and they only need to obey.

As for when to do what, whether to attack? Who to protect? For tools, these issues do not need to be considered, just obey.

But on second thought, Gavin disagreed with the other party’s statement. After all, the Unsullied are people, and people have their own emotions.

In the original plot, some Unsullied even seek comfort from prostitutes, and among them there is a commander-in-chief named Grey Worm. His emotions are richer, including love, hatred, pain, anger, and everything that a person should have.

In essence, Gavin and Kraznys have different ideas. As a benevolent master, the environment and education he has been exposed to have made him never regard slaves as human beings. Slaves are just tools for them to gain wealth.

Gavin, on the other hand, can look at the Unsullied from a human perspective, which leads to different conclusions for the two.
