"Viserys..."
At that moment, the girl's voice abruptly echoed in the silent room, startling Viserys who was engrossed in searching for information about the 'black fog'.
"Hmm?"
Viserys slightly lifted his head to glance at her, only to see her squatting amidst the clutter under the bed, with a box in front of her.
She was looking at the contents of the box, her face showing a strange expression.
"Mia, what's wrong?" Viserys asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I think I found... some stones? Do you want to come and take a look?"
Mia looked at the five round stones in the box, speaking uncertainly.
She didn't think a noble Valyrian would keep five beautiful large stones under their bed.
But no matter how she looked at them, they seemed like stones.
These five stones were indeed very beautiful, their surfaces seemed to be covered with a layer of hard scales, faintly reflecting light.
Mia picked up one, it was somewhat heavy.
"Stones?"
On the other side, Viserys was slightly taken aback by Mia's words.
He didn't think the owner of this place would keep some beautiful stones under his bed, he wasn't Lannister.
However, Viserys's heart thumped as if he had suddenly thought of something.
Stones?
"Let me see the stones you found."
Then he carefully put down the book in his hand and walked over.
"This is..."
However, when Viserys came closer and saw the 'stone' Mia was holding, his heartbeat quickened.
Indeed.
He knew that a Valyrian noble wouldn't just keep a beautiful stone under his bed.
At this moment, the red-haired girl was holding an oval dragon egg, its surface covered with bright red scales.
Even though countless years had passed, the dragon egg was still as perfect as new, even shimmering.
"Do you know... what it is?"
Viserys took the red dragon egg from Mia's hands, examined it carefully, and then asked.
However, the moment his fingers touched the dragon egg, he felt a warm sensation.
He knew this was the dragon egg responding to him, it was definitely different from the first time he saw Balerion.
Viserys knew his dragon king bloodline had been activated.
Now, the purity of the dragon king bloodline in Viserys's body far exceeded that of his sister Daenerys, even comparable to the ancestors of the Targaryen family during the Valyrian era.
His deep violet eyes, his long silver-gold hair almost shining, his bloodline traits were more obvious than anyone else's.
The warmth generated by Viserys touching the dragon egg made him even more certain that this was a dragon egg.
The red-haired girl didn't know what this stone represented, but seeing the excitement on Viserys's face, she seemed to have a vague guess...
Although the texture of this thing was very much like a stone, it was a very regular oval shape, could it be...
No! It can't be!
"Viserys, this... this can't be a dragon egg, can it?"
Mia's heartbeat also quickened a bit, her face slightly flushed, she looked at the fiery red stone in Viserys's hand, and then cautiously asked.
"That's right, you're correct."
"This is a dragon egg."
A smile appeared on Viserys's face, he nodded slightly, this was the first time he had been so happy since arriving in Valyria.
He held the red dragon egg in his hand, then looked at the four dragon eggs of different colors neatly arranged in the box, Mia had
found a total of five dragon eggs.
Five dragon eggs.
You should know that the Targaryen family only has three dragons now.
Viserys's heartbeat quickened again, and seeing the joy on the handsome silver-haired youth's face, his bright violet eyes also filled with happiness, Mia felt genuinely happy from the bottom of her heart.
After Viserys's joy, he then slightly controlled his excited emotions and looked up at the red-haired girl.
"Do you know the great merit you've achieved, Mia?"
After Viserys had calmed his emotions, he looked at her with his pale violet eyes and spoke as calmly as possible.
"One of my vassals exchanged three dragon eggs for a seat at the council meeting and the position of finance minister."
"And these five dragon eggs can even exchange for you a territory to guard."
Viserys generously promised.
"What do you want?"
"Gold, castles, titles... just say it."
His voice now sounded calm, but every word was worth a fortune, making people dizzy.
He could take these dragon eggs without paying a penny, after all, he had saved the girl's life, and the favor could be completely repaid.
However, Viserys was never a stingy person, and he disdained to do such things.
This is also why he can tolerate the little actions of the ragged prince until today.
He is very tolerant and does not burn bridges, as long as the ragged prince does not seek death, he will not die.
For Mia, finding five dragon eggs for Viserys is naturally a great merit.
Viserys unhesitatingly told her that she could ask him for conditions as she pleased, as long as it was within the value of the dragon eggs, he could promise.
"Huh?"
However, Mia was slightly stunned when she heard Viserys's promise.
But then she didn't get very excited and tell him her ideals, asking for a high reward, instead, she became silent.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the change on her face, the smile on Viserys's face gradually faded.
He instinctively reflected on whether he had said something wrong just now, was his attitude a bit too... condescending.
However, just as Viserys was about to apologize, Mia finally spoke.
"About these... I haven't thought about it."
The girl took a deep breath, then spoke softly.
"I don't know what I want, can I wait a bit longer?"
"I'll tell you what I want when I've thought about it."
Viserys was silent for a moment after hearing the girl's words, the apology he was about to say was swallowed back, and then he finally nodded.
"Um... okay."
"You can tell me anytime when you've thought about it, I'll satisfy whatever I can."
The weight of these five dragon eggs was heavy, Viserys and Mia struggled to pack them up and carry them on their backs.
Viserys planned to give the dragon eggs to Balerion when they left here.
Then the two of them searched the bedroom again, but didn't find anything else of value.
Then they left the half-collapsed tower and quietly made their way towards the central hall.
