Chapter 153 Daenerys’ embarrassment

Only the throne cannot be shared with others. This is a concept that Daenerys has been instilled in since she was a child. Viserys, the brother, is not good at all, but on this point, he does what he says.

He died with a crown, even if it was not his will.

Her brother's weak neck could not bear the weight of the crown. After he left, the family's hatred fell on Daenerys's smaller shoulders. Again, this was not what she wanted.

Very early on, she thought that when she grew up, she would marry her brother who always bullied her. Although his "wrath of the sleeping dragon" always made her hurt, she endured it.

"Daenerys, you must remember that the usurper has seized our father's throne. Our mission is to return to that homeland and bring blood and fire to those despicable rebels."

Daenerys always remembered what her brother said. Only when he said these words did her brother look like a king. Daenerys always felt that way.

She originally thought that she was alone in this world. Although the red comet brought her three children, they were just children and did not understand her thoughts.

Everyone around her follows her surname, Targaryen, what a glorious name, it means the strongest claim to the throne of the Seven Kings, and she knows this very well.

No matter what they say, Daenerys only regards them as followers and her subordinates. She knows that the throne is narrow and can only accommodate one person in a crowded place.

But in her heart, she still longed for someone who could talk to her as an equal, deal with the endless troubles for her, raise an army for her, and help her get the throne back.

But now, this person appeared so suddenly, coming from the sky like a dragon, and all her pride was reduced. Daenerys didn't know how to face this person.

There was another violent storm on the sea surface, which reminded Daenerys of the storm when she was born.

Staying in her cabin, her body swayed left and right with the ship, but Daenerys had long been accustomed to this, and she could no longer feel faint.

Listening to the creaking of the wooden planks building the bulkhead, Daenerys's lavender eyes reflected a flickering candle, which was as swaying and enchanting as her fair body.

It was almost dusk at this time. That Clay Manderly, riding that blue-gold dragon, Galesos, was called that, right? Yes, it was this one, with his three children.

Went to sea to look for food.

She didn't know what she was thinking, maybe she wasn't thinking about anything, but she knew that her mind was filled with that young face.

"Dong dong dong."

A dull knock on the door disrupted Daenerys' thoughts. Someone was outside, and Daenerys knew it.

"come in."

Daenerys said softly. She didn't know who was outside, but it probably wasn't her maid.

With a creak, the damp oak door was slowly pushed open, and Daenerys first noticed the iconic long white beard.

Astan, is it him? Why did he come to me?

Daenerys thought about it, immediately straightened her sitting posture, put away all her expressions, and pointed to the wooden barrel on the other side of the table, which was the stool on the ship.

"Sit down, Astan, what do you want from me? Sorry, I don't have anything to entertain you here."

Daenerys forced herself to disperse the disturbing thoughts in her mind, showed a decent smile, and said to this old man who was much older than her father with a smile.

"That's not necessary. Your Majesty, I came to you because I want to talk to you about Clay Manderly."

Sir Barristan sat down opposite Daenerys as instructed. In one sentence, he clearly stated the purpose of his interruption. The old Sir noticed that Daenerys's face changed as soon as he said these words.

It's very unnatural.

"Arstan, you are from Westeros. Do you know this Clay Manderly?"

Taking a deep breath, Daenerys suppressed her surging emotions. She looked at Barristan and asked the question she had always wanted to ask.

She wanted to know Clay Mandler's past so much. She was afraid that Clay Mandler was deceiving her. Maybe even the name was fake, but she also desperately wanted to know all the information about him.

.

Daenerys didn't know what was wrong with her. She was troubled by this feeling because it was something she had never experienced in her life for more than ten years.

She didn't expect Barristan to give her an answer, but this feeling drove her to ask such a question. But unexpectedly, Barristan actually nodded after frowning and thinking for a while.

"I knew him, sire, when he was at Winterfell."

Barristan always thought that he had heard this name somewhere before, but now he finally remembered it. At that time, he followed King Robert to Winterfell, and there was a conflict between nobles.

He remembered that he was a noble from the north who killed on the spot a small noble from the Lannister branch who came with the queen. The noble from the north was imprisoned in the dungeon by King Robert. Now that he thought about it, the name of the noble from the north was

Clay Mandler.

It's a pity that I didn't meet him at that time, otherwise, I would have been able to confirm his identity immediately during this meeting.

Hearing Barristan's answer, Daenerys was stunned for a moment, then her eyes suddenly opened wide, and she immediately asked:

"Astan, tell me everything you know about him!"

Daenerys's reaction surprised Barristan, but he quickly ignored it, concealed his identity, and slowly told Daenerys about Clay Man from the perspective of a bystander.

What Dele did in the north.

…

Time slowly flowed with the rhythmic rocking of the cabin. I don’t know how long it took, but Barristan finally ended his memories, leaving Daenerys in a trance who didn’t know what she was thinking.

"His Majesty……"

Barristan reminded Daenerys, and Daenerys suddenly woke up. The awkward look on her face disappeared. She thought for a while and concluded:

"In other words, what you know about him is that... he is a somewhat reckless northern nobleman for the sake of his family members. Well, he is also somewhat brave and dares to kill Lannister directly in front of the usurper."

Daenerys was quite satisfied with Clay's ruthless killing of the Lannister. She believed that her father was at fault for both the Stark and Baratheon families in the Usurper War.

But it was only the Lannister family that Tywin served as his father's Hand of the King for so many years. In the end, his father still chose to trust Tywin, but in exchange for the Lannister's bloody massacre of the Targaryens.

For Daenerys, she can forgive anyone who has resisted the Targaryen family, but only the Lannister family is on her must-kill list.

"Perhaps, Your Majesty, but I have never seen his face. I still can't understand why the descendants of the Mandalay family have the ability to control dragons. As far as I know, Aegon's bloodline is not the same as that of Mandely.

Dele's blood has been mingled."

Barristan frowned his gray eyebrows. This was a question he had never been able to figure out, because based on common sense, this was simply impossible to happen.

Daenerys remembered what Clay said to her and decided to ignore the topic for the time being. She asked Barristan:

"Sir, you haven't told me what you want to say to me yet, now is your time."

The next moment, Daenerys regretted saying this, because Barristan's answer made her don't know how to sort out her mood. He said:

"Your Majesty, if Clay Manderly's identity is confirmed, then as a subordinate who has sworn allegiance to you, I suggest that you conclude a marriage contract with this Clay Manderly that will be known to all seven countries."

Daenerys is no longer the little girl she was before, but this still doesn't allow her to remain absolutely calm at this time. She has thought about this, but she didn't expect that her followers would ask this question.

"Well... this... is a bit sudden. Astan, can we not talk about this for now?"

I don’t know why, but Daenerys’s tone is no longer as strong as in previous conversations. She is a little evasive, with a hint of embarrassment.

Barristan watched Daenerys's expression changes carefully. An unknown smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he continued firmly:

"Your Majesty, I don't have to say this, but you must think about this issue carefully. Clay Mandler came from Westeros. You have met him now. If he can't stand on your side..."

"Then he and his dragon will become enemies that I can't defeat."

Daenerys answered Barristan's words, and the latter nodded. Apparently Daenerys understood it correctly.

"You have also seen that his giant dragon, that big blue-gold guy, and your three little dragons are no match for it in any case. The dragons are all growing up. When his dragon gets bigger, you will

How to deal with him?"

"When your dragon grows up, you can use the blood and fire of the Targaryens to subjugate all the traitors, but now the question is, how do you subdue the other Manderly family who can also bring blood and fire to the enemy?"

Woolen cloth?"

Seeing that Daenerys was silent, Barristan knew that she had heard what he said, so he made a final conclusion:

"Your Majesty, even if you can't accept him as your future husband for the time being, I also suggest that you never antagonize him. Your dragon is not yet capable of fighting, but with him around, you can quickly pull Essos back.

A large enough army."

"At that time, you will realize your brother's dream, your dream, to return to Westeros and reclaim the iron chair that belongs to House Targaryen."

…

Clay, who was out hunting for food with four foodies, didn't know about the conversation that took place in the cabin. He didn't care much about what was going on in Daenerys' small team right now.

Anyway, from now on they will all be their subordinates or vassals, it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later.

Daenerys will not have a too bad attitude towards him. Clay still has this confidence. The key lies in Galesos, who is currently muttering about the three little ones competing with him for food.

In other words, Clay and Daenerys now have the monopoly on dragon resources in the entire world, and Clay still has the first-mover advantage and is in a leading position.

Therefore, Clay is not worried about Daenerys at all. From the moment he appears in front of her, many things cannot be controlled by the few people around her.

Jorah Mormont fired the gun just because he didn't like this salty middle-aged man. Moreover, Clay had other plans for him when he borrowed Daenerys' hand.

After finishing cooking on the sea, Clay took Galesos and flew towards the location of Daenerys's boat. This was already close to the sea near Slaver's Bay, so he could not avoid being discovered.

After all, people have to see it. Clay did not order Galesos to destroy the witnesses with dragon flames. His violence was not used on these civilians.

He could imagine how the fleets coming and going on the sea would react when they saw the Galesos group, one large and three small, which could be called a group of dragons.

Now, there must be a ship with its sails fully set, sailing desperately in the direction of Astapor, bringing news of the dragons to the slave owners who were sitting up.
