The king that should have been

What is a king? That is a question with many answers, but it is undoubtedly something more worthy than a drunk, prostitute, and cuckold, who turned out to be Robert Baratheon, who looks helplessly at the failure that his life was without. However, whether by divine intervention or simple chance, an anomaly has arrived in Westeros, an anomaly that may be a solution to Robert Baratheon's failures, and become the king he should have been.

A new game for a new king

 Chapter 1: The Call of the Throne

 In the heart of the bustling city of King's Landing, King Robert Baratheon, known for his titanic strength and insatiable thirst for ale, stood on his throne, surrounded by the court and the opulent splendor of the throne room.  Laughter echoed in the air, mixed with the clinking of glasses and the aroma of food.  Robert, with his belly protruding and his face flushed, raised his glass to the crowd, roaring a toast to life, war, and women.

 However, beneath the king's jovial facade, a storm was brewing.  The shadow of betrayal and conspiracy spread across the court, threatening to tear the kingdom into pieces.  Robert, oblivious to the machinations around him, continued his life of excess, ignoring the signs of danger that were accumulating around him.

 ignorant of the machinations of his coter, ignorant of his wife's prayers, ignorant of his friend's prayers, always ignorant, he was mortally wounded by a wild boar in the hunting grounds, awaiting his imminent death, ignorant of as if legacy He will be torn apart with his death, in the end Robert was nothing more than a drunk, a prostitute, unworthy of the crown.

 The man, disoriented and confused, looked at his hands in disbelief.  He didn't remember who he was, nor how he had gotten there.  The only thing he was clear about was that he was not in his world.

 A murmur of amazement ran through the throne room as those present looked at the stranger occupying the king's throne.  The nobles, confused and fearful, began to murmur among themselves, wondering who this man was and what had happened to their king.

 Just an hour after sharing his last will to his greatest and most faithful friend, the demon of the trident, Robert Baratheon, died, however it was not his end, due to an anomaly Robert, who expected to be received by cold nothingness, or by the 7 divine ones if they exist, he observed his now cold body in disbelief,

However, Robert noticed that no matter what he did or how hard he tried, he could not interact with anything or anyone, he was, in the words of a better term, a specter, unable to do anything more than witness his surroundings, he was also restricted to the red fortress  

 Just like that, Robert waited in the hope of fading into nothingness and simply observed what happened after his death, but he never expected what he ran immediately after, he saw his friend, respect his wishes and carry out his last will, and he saw his friend being betrayed, his men murderers, his daughters kidnapped and persecuted, he also learned of Cersei's betrayal, that none of her children were his, and finally he saw his friend lose his honor, credibility and finally, his head 

                                                                                          and Robert Baratheon, roared, like a possessed beast, trying to save his friend, to kill Cersei and her son, he tried and tried, but he didn't get anything, he was already dead, and he just screamed and screamed, his Father Jonh, for condemning them all, Cersei, for his betrayal, to the gods, in the hope that the gods will have mercy on him, however, no one answered him…

or maybe yes, Rober was wrapped in a blanket of light and transported to a blank space, confused and disoriented he looked around and only saw white walls, however, not for long, to his right he saw a tall, white man , with black hair, a robust build, with well-proportioned muscles, the man just as confused as him, looked around with the slightest trace of doubt, when he noticed it, his expression showed surprise. 

 and when he looked like he wanted to talk, some kind of...portal?  , window ?  appeared in front of them, "What"x2, Robert and the stranger exclaimed in surprise, in the window or doorway an image began to take shape, with the sound of the rain in the background, the image shown is, however curious, several women and 2 men are around a woman, and it seems she is in labor.                                   

                                                                                                                           pale complexion with blue eyes and black hair, undoubtedly young and beautiful, her face was transformed into a grimace of pain and effort, "my parents," Robert cannot help but whisper, he immediately recognizes the woman, who although more younger than he remembers her, she is undoubtedly his mother, and the one holding her arm is, without a doubt, his father, "although it should be impossible," it was barely a whisper, however the man next to her seems to have listened .

 But Robert, he doesn't realize it, deep in thought, he wonders what is happening, all this seems so strange to him and his world was turned upside down in less than a day, pov Unknown: What the fuck is happening, I clearly remember being there I'm fucking a sexy blonde and the other I'm with a damn fat guy, who looks disturbingly like Robert Baratheon from the Game of Thrones books, and when I was going to ask him where we were, 

                                          

I was almost scared shitless, a kind of portal like in video games appeared in front of us, and showed us a very pregnant woman holding the hand of who I can only assume is her husband, while, what I recognized as some kind of Doctors helped her with her birth, and although her clothes were strange, I didn't give them any importance.

 I heard the fat man call the couple parents, and after an observation, I saw that he had a resemblance to the man in the image, but I didn't give it any importance either, I had assumed that I was dreaming or something like that, that maybe I had fallen asleep after a good fuck.                            

                                                                                                                          That idea was immediately crushed when a window emerged in front of me, on the window I had a message written, but I was too busy panicking to read it, after all I had assumed that everything was a dream, a figment of my imagination, however the fact that I can read, within a dream it clearly tells me that it is not, the fact that I have not yet woken up despite my attempts and my panic does not help either, I try to calm down, and think that maybe I am hallucinated or that I am drugged 

 Although I doubt it, I have never taken drugs in my life and I don't suffer from schizophrenia, I took a deep breath and tried to think that maybe an idiot put something in my drink or maybe the blonde I fucked with me took drugs, or maybe she hit me in the head. head, "yes surely that must be it" and although I have a bad premonition, I am calmer and take my time to read the window noticing that the fat man also has one, "greetings users #1913 has been selected as a user of the Akashic system, for To be a full user of the system, you must verify your data and go through a final selection process to be able to enjoy the benefits of being part of this community. To verify your data, select continue."

                                            

 After reading the first window, I felt that my bad premonition was correct, I quickly touched the continue option, and a status window automatically opened, and with which I quickly lost hope that it was a hallucination, the data written in the window, they were terrifyingly accurate, name: Lucas Alexander Morrinson age: 45 years, status dead, manner of death: you were murdered by the husband of the woman you slept with, relationships: 1 wife, 57 lovers, children: 89 , history: Lucas Morrinson, born 03/30/1979, abandoned in an orphanage by your prostitute mother,

   You were raised in an orphanage in England, where you grew and learned for 15 years. In your early years you suffered first-hand from the lack of food, as well as the bullying of your elders, so, with the hope of getting a better deal you tried to impress adults, which you achieved when it was shown that you were more intelligent and talented than the other children, so you were quickly noticed and appreciated by adults.

 but envied by the other children, which you noticed, so with the hope of not being abused, you made your charisma flourish and like a social butterfly you surrounded yourself with a group of children who followed you everywhere, mostly girls, avoiding So being bullied by other children, with, 

 Over the years you only became more popular and secured your status with intrigues and intimidation, but that was not enough, you said you were targeting adults since when you were only 10 years old you lost your virginity to one of the nuns at the orphanage, who He managed to take advantage of your young age to submit to his whims, or so he thought,

   The truth is that you were the one who instigated the frustrated nun, thus taking advantage of your alleged rape of her, to blackmail her since you made one of your cronies take photos of what was done. 

 With an adult on your side you began to slowly but methodically control the orphanage, getting rid of most of the obstacles, blackmailing, seducing, intimidating almost every means available. 

 At 15 you started a business, making money as a pickpocket and sending the children to other jobs, like washing cars, hoping to get enough money, after 4 months you opened a bakery in the orphanage. 

 The idea was very good and you took advantage of the cheap labor to continue opening other businesses.  You managed to get a scholarship at a nearby university, I will continue developing your business, you graduated from university at 22, you worked as a tradesman, you were very lucky with the attack on the twin towers, and by the time you realized it you were already a successful man , with several businesses in his name 

A large capital and without the need to work, you would never suffer hunger and cold again, and thus you created more orphanages under your direction, but it seems that in the absence of an objective a plyboy will forget you, since you had a great libido , you will already have several lovers in your old orphanage, since you will sleep with most of the girls who grew up with you and are now your employees, 

 It only got worse when you began to notice the new girls who arrived at your orphanage, you began to seduce those who caught your attention, but you tried to be decent about it, since none of them were under 15 years old, this continued, it spread. For years, you made sure that your activities were never a problem, being that all those in charge of supervising your orphanages and businesses were women who were told with great success, it also helped that you never harassed anyone, and being quite attractive 

   You slept with your employees' wives, their daughters, and even your friends, your friends and family were not safe either, since you slept with your mother-in-law, your wife's sister and ultimately your daughters, since in a moment of drunkenness, you could not recognize it, however, your daughter did not stop you, nor did she betray you, because the apple does not fall far from the tree, and by eating the forbidden fruit, you free yourself from the taboo. 

 The data is correct (yes)(no)

 By observing my data I had already accepted that this is neither a dream nor a hallucination, although I am still in shock about everything that happened, after all I have always been someone logical, 

 With nothing to lose price yes, another veto was immediately obtained, 

  

 We hereby announce that the final selection process has begun, the objective consists of 2 challenges, the first

 challenge will be a competition of strength and skill between user #1913 and #1914, this test aims to choose who will be able to reincarnate in the new ship known as Robert Baratheon, firstborn of Steffon Baratheon, in the primordial reality of a song of ice and fire .

 The second consists of a clash of wills, the objective is a goal to achieve, if the winner of the first round wins in this part, they will have to meet the winner's goal, but if the winner of the first challenge wins In this part, he acquires the total sum of the loser, being his destiny, soul, lineages, memory usurped by the winner, as well as acquiring the list of achievements in life, if the competitors end in a tie, they can formalize a contract 

 I was frozen, because of what this means, I can reincarnate, that simple fact filled me with infinite joy, which even surpasses my apprehension about who and where I will reincarnate, since the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, the medieval atmosphere will undoubtedly present A challenge, but that pales in comparison to the opportunity to reincarnate. 

Now I just have to kill this fat man, (who I now know is the real Robert Baratheon) and I can enjoy a full life, I thought, turning to my opponent who was also watching me, not in his face with apprehension, knowing perfectly well that he has the To lose, I thank whatever deity that this is the old Robert and not the demon with the trident, with a long inhalation, and I calm down, I have not yet won and it is not wise to claim victory yet.

  

 He took a cross stance and I approach slowly, and I see Robert take a boxing stance, but unlike me he immediately runs towards me, perhaps hoping to overwhelm me, I keep moving forward and when he is about to hit I move to his side. left barely dodging his onslaught, but not before hitting him in the liver, making him bend over, 

 Taking two steps back he prevented me from grabbing him, when I got him close I feinted towards his face but he kicked him in his left thigh making him grunt in pain, I notice that he is furious, "well that made it easier", he manages to grab my arm, I was surprised by his strength and immediately began to try to hit me in the face and changed, he blocked his blows but some managed to hit me in the ribs, the bastard lacks any technique or skill but he makes up for it with strength, taking advantage of his lack of technique, I manage to hit a blow to his chin that stuns him and knocks out two teeth, 

 He still doesn't let me go but I grabbed him, he becomes weaker, after giving him another kick, this is in the liver, he frees me, he immediately returns, trying to type me, he tried to hit me in the face but he manages to cover himself with his hands. 

 He's too close to dodge so I don't do it, and I receive him fully, the shock almost takes the wind out of me and I feel a pain in my abdomen, before his arms can surround me, he grabs him by the biceps and I start to hit him. knees, I see his face convulse with pain and he tries to get away but I hold him firmly, 

 I see him throw his neck back, I was expecting this, so when he is about to headbutt me, I let go of his biceps and grabbed his wrists and pulled him down, taking advantage of his height and narrowly avoiding his headbutt with his trunk. Slightly bent, I let go of his wrists and took him by the shoulders. I jump and manage to push myself up quickly enough to knee him in the chin. 

  

 He immediately falls to the floor, and I don't let him recover, I continue hitting him in the face, abdomen, liver, glass of the ears. I only stop when I see that he is no longer breathing, my hands are stained with his blood and mine.

Getting up, I looked at the window that now tells me the start of the second challenge, congratulations for overcoming the first challenge, participant #1913, select the option to continue to complete the second challenge, seeing for one last time the corpse of the former trident demon now. With a broken face I sighed and selected to continue 

  

 Being transported now to a total void, where I can only see my own body, however it does not last when I see a Robert without any injuries in front of me, he also seems to notice it when he touches his face, looks at me and shouts at me, 

 Robert: "You cock-sucking bastard, wait until I put my hands on you, I will make sure you suffer the 7 hells, before I take my war hammer and crush your head like a bean", no, I answer him, he is already dead, he is alone. Here, thanks to the second test, I don't see the need to humiliate him further, 

 Akasha system: participant #1914, please write the goal that you want to impose on the winner of the first challenge. For each goal you set, a different judgment will be necessary. When you finish writing it, you and participant #1913 will be subjected to a judgment. where the winner will be decided as soon as who gives up first 

 At that Robert stopped shouting, he looked at the pop-up seriously, 

 I slowly write down the goals that I wanted to set for myself, I can't see how many there are, but I think there are 4 or 5, when I finish writing I was immediately transported to a desert, I can see Robert in front of me, the grain of the system shows me the goals he wants to impose on me, 

 1- kill the lannisters 

 2-kill the targaryens 

 3-protect the Starks and John Arryn 

 4-protect the Baratheon 

 Reading the list I immediately refuse to accept this, just the first and second conditions are enough to spend half of Robert's life in constant war and chaos, which I do not want in my second life and while the teapot and fourth They're not that bad, I'm definitely not going to be anyone's watchdog. 

  

 Thus began the trial and the scorching heat, the glacial cold, the lack of oxygen, and the hunger and thirst, in the trial Robert proved to be very skilled. I won only half of the trials I had to negotiate what the goals were to be met, or change its difficulty to be able to complete them all, 

 In the end it was decided that I have to overthrow the Targaryens, punish the Lannisters and guarantee the well-being of the Starks, Robert was undoubtedly a terrible king but at least he was a good friend, so with a final box he faded away. 

 Akashic system: Participant # 1914 has been disqualified, his achievements, soul, memory and lineages will be delivered to participant # 1913, select the continue option to proceed with his reincarnation, 

 Without wasting any more time, I selected to continue and a light enveloped my vice and before I knew it I was in the arms of a woman, who looked at me with so much love that it disconcerted me. I raised my arms, which I felt weighed tons, and tried to hold her face. , she just laughed and I approached her face, giving me a kiss on the forehead, observing my surroundings, I see a sale, and I observe the immensity of the sea. 

 "Maybe this is a new game," she thought.  "A game where I can be whoever I want to be, and do whatever I want."

 With a smile on her face, the baby looks forward to what fate has in store for him in this new world.

 End of chapter 1
