Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Taming the Dragon
Drogon knew that the captain had traveled a long way from Westeros to here, and the news was delayed. He estimated that the five kings were fighting each other fiercely.
Ed is dead... who are the Five Kings?
Just as Daenerys was about to ask Kuhuru again, she heard Drogon's thoughts.
Intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Drogon who was listening carefully to their conversation, Daenerys suppressed her doubts and continued: "Captain, thank you for bringing me these good news. When will your ship go to Westeros?"
"I won't be going there again within the next year. I still have cargo on my ship to transport to the shadow land of Asya in the east." Kuhulu said regretfully.
"Thank you again. I wish you a smooth journey to Asia and a fruitful return. When we meet again, I will give you a generous reward."
Daenerys really can't come up with any decent gifts right now.
Kuhuru said goodbye and left, and Daenerys ambitiously asked Jorah about the situation in Westeros.
The old king is dead, the new king has difficulty winning the support of the people, and the old king's brother is rebelling. It is a good time for her to enter Westeros.
"King's Landing hasn't changed much. Even if Robert's brother and Joffrey started fighting, you couldn't intervene. Besides, there are so many nobles eyeing the Iron Throne."
Jorah continues his usual routine of beating up the future queen.
"I have dragons!" Daenerys said stubbornly. As soon as she finished speaking, she remembered what Drogon had said, and her momentum suddenly weakened a lot.
Then he suddenly asked: "Will Eddard be executed for treason?" He still didn't believe that his dragons would die easily, let alone two of them, so he asked Jorah to confirm Drogon's prophecy.
"After Eddard is captured, his eldest son Robb will take over as the Lord of Winterfell and lead the entire North. Although the population of the North is small, the fighting power is extremely strong. Even if the new king captures Eddard, he will not execute him. Otherwise, he will become the enemy of the entire North. With the temperament of the Wolf family, they will definitely send troops to King's Landing to avenge Eddard."
"And the king's brother has already sentenced King's Landing, and will fight with King's Landing sooner or later. The new king will definitely not establish the North as a powerful enemy again. Moreover, chaos is about to break out. The other lords will definitely not stay in their territories peacefully. Instead, they will weigh the pros and cons, win over allies, and repeat the War of the Usurper."
After listening to Jorah's analysis, Daenerys couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Drogon's prophecy might not be entirely correct, and her dragon would not die.
As much as she wished Drogon could foresee the future, she would rather Drogon was talking nonsense if her two dragons would die in the future.
"When can I go to King's Landing?" Daenerys looked at Jorah expectantly.
"You have nothing now. Even if there is a war between the Seven Kingdoms, you will need troops, large ships and allies. Otherwise, the war will have little to do with us."
"I have dragons!" Daenerys whispered.
"But they are too weak now and can't do anything. We don't know when they will grow up." Jorah continued to launch a dimensionality reduction attack on the future queen.
After hearing cruel words so many times, Daenerys chose to remain silent this time.
Seeing Daenerys's gloomy expression, Jorah felt a little sorry for her, but she was the future queen. If she didn't face reality and couldn't even bear this little setback, how could she fight for the Iron Throne?
"Khaleesi, that day you were going to send Rakharo to the southeast to find a way out of the wasteland, why didn't you let him go later?" Jorah asked curiously, thinking of the news he had heard today.
Daenerys didn't know why Jorah asked about this. She couldn't tell Jorah that it was because she heard Drogon say in his mind that Rakharo would die.
After thinking for a while, she lied and said, "I don't think that's the way out of the wasteland. Why do you ask about this?"
"I just heard people talking on the street that there is a Dothraki khal looting in the northwest of Qarth. It is very likely that he is a former bandit of Khal Drogo, Khal Bonor or Khal Jhaco."
"If Rakharo went out that day, he would probably have run into them. Rakharo joined the Khalasar led by a woman, and that khal would definitely kill him." Jorah said with a little admiration in his eyes.
Daenerys's momentary thought may have saved Rakharo's life.
"What?"
Daenerys stood there in a daze, the slightest bit of hope she had just held on to was ruthlessly shattered.
Jorah looked at Daenerys's dazed look and was extremely puzzled. Wasn't it a good thing to lose one less bloodrider? Why was Khaleesi so frightened?
"Sir Jorah...Sir Jorah, you should pay more attention to the cargo ships from Westeros during this period and ask them about King's Landing and Westeros. We can't just focus on Qarth."
"Ask if there are any cargo ships heading west. We need to leave here as soon as possible."
Zaro was willing to cut off his hand to recruit Sumai. She didn't know what Zaro wanted. She only had herself and the dragon, and she couldn't give him either. She could only leave here as soon as possible.
"Yes, Khaleesi." Seeing Daenerys gradually recovering from her loss of composure, Jorah left with peace of mind, but he had even more doubts in his heart.
Looking at Drogon who was grilling meat in the distance, Daenerys was still upset.
"Jiqi, Irri, let my dragons practice flying and breathing fire when you have nothing else to do. Don't lock them in cages."
Drogon said he would train Rhaegal and Viserion. Daenerys didn't know how he would train them, so she had to at least give him more time to train.
The next day, Daenerys and Jorah attended a welcome party held by Xaro for her, and Drogon officially began his dragon training plan.
Drogon's appetite is three times that of the other two dragons, and his body size is now almost twice as large as the other two.
In his previous life, he had never paid attention to the male and female dragons, nor had he seen them making love. Only after his soul traveled through time and space to Drogon did he remember this question. However, after confirming that he was still a male, he was greatly relieved. The green dragon Rhaegal, named after the Dragon Queen's brother Rhaegar, turned out to be a little female dragon.
As a straight male dragon, Drogon had no thoughts about the little female dragon Rhaegal. Instead, he really enjoyed admiring the muscular bodies of Jhiqui and Illina who were grilling meat for him.
But although I appreciate it, I have no extra thoughts and no desire to do anything. I don't know if it's because it's too young and its body is not yet fully developed.
For this reason, drogon was vaguely worried about his future sexual orientation.
When training dragons, there is no distinction between male and female in front of Drogon, and the female dragon will not show mercy to the enemy. In order to save them both from death in the future, Drogon will not be merciful.
After following Drogon and imitating him for two days, although the two dragons could not fly as high as Drogon, and their flames could not be spewed as far and hot as his, it was almost impossible for ordinary people to kill them.
There aren't many training methods planned by Drogon, just flying, breathing fire, and fighting.
They had been practicing the first two things. The two dragons would occasionally fight over food. They had also fought with Drogon for food, but they were all kicked away by his claws. After that, they became much more obedient and only dared to snatch food from each other.
At this time, the two dragons were fighting for a piece of meat. The maids Jhiqi and Yili were watching them fighting from the side, and had no intention of feeding them again or trying to stop the fight.
Daenerys had instructed them yesterday that, except for Drogon, Rhaegal and Viserion, they should not be fed separately, and whoever grabbed the food should keep it.
As long as you don't set the house on fire or get seriously injured during a fight, don't worry.
