How to trick a little madman chapter 35

William was in Pentos a few days later, and at that time he was forced to come into contact with unhelpful nobles in order to somehow get closer to his goal.

Yesterday, a fortuitous event happened. The wealthy merchants of Pentos held a grand auction to sell a large amount of ancient relics and works of art. A lot was taken away and the money came in explosive form.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, the judges decided to do what they know to do better than make money, and that's a party.

A grand ball was planned and William was delighted to be invited to attend.

William stood in front of Emily, hoping she would help him choose an outfit for the occasion.

Emily looked at him with bright eyes and he looked gorgeous in that outfit.

It is a noble dark blue garment with gold details, a dress more beautiful than those worn elsewhere due to the warmer weather in the region, but it still retains the necessary elegance for such events.

William turned around and walked towards the mirror.

"What do I look like?" William wondered as he tried to look at himself.

Emily smiled slightly, walked closer and pinched his butt.

"Very charming," Emily replied as she adjusted every little detail of William's clothes.

William looked at Emily again and smiled.

Hours have passed. William must dress elegantly, otherwise this trip will cause many problems. The more you show up, the greater the likelihood that things will go well. For this outfit, he chose the most expensive outfit he has ever worn.

This is an outfit that costs enough to buy a ship!

Slowly boarding the rented car, William began to be taken to the party location, in this case the village hall of Illyrio Mopatis's mansion.

Upon arrival, the view was dazzling: a large mansion that showed its owner was extremely wealthy.

Waiters and security guards are everywhere.

William calmly entered the room and was assaulted by a huge amount of smell; there were too many people gathered there.

Was it difficult to find the Targaryens?

Clearly not; Their gray hair made it easy for William to locate them.

Near the center of the room, where many lewdly dressed men were chatting, was the owner of the house Illyrio Mopatis. He was a bit shy but Viserys Targaryen was always close to him.

Viserys wears a noble but not too expensive outfit; it's luxurious but also simple.

He is a guest of this place, a bet or investment of Illyrio.

Although Illyrio Mopatis was the protector of House Targaryen, he could not force others to take this young man seriously.

What made Viserys fall apart was the small talk to him, making him act like he was in control of everything.

The little fool acts like a king... but is treated like the man who sold his sister to the Dothraki barbarians, which is the only reason they are allowed contact with Viserys.

If the engagement between Daenerys and Khal Drogo did not exist, Viserys would be forced to stay in the mansion's chambers, away from prying eyes.

William looked around, trying to find that special someone, the great Daenerys of House Targaryen, but unfortunately the ladies had not yet begun to attend the party. Now it's time for men to talk about business; only after a certain time do they enter.

Wasting no time, William went to talk to Illyrio Mopatis and the little fool of House Targaryen.

William quickly struck up a conversation with these rich pigs and hinted that he wanted to buy goods and perhaps land in Pentos.

This eventually leads some marketers to explain which products would be good to sell and where to sell them, trying to make their products appear more valuable than they actually are.

William only pretends to care but he avoids all this "good work" and starts asking questions about the Dothraki and what's happening near Meereen.

The merchants talked about some rumors and very little new information, but one thing caught William's attention. One of them said that he heard someone say that Khal Drogo had solved his problem and was going to Pentos.

Viserys's attentive ears caught this information and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.

William decided to talk to that idiot.

"Hello, my name is William; what's your famous name?" William asked Viserys nobly, trying to flatter Viserys.

Viserys, who was smiling at the news about his "brother-in-law", was surprised when someone spoke to him.

"I am Viserys of House Targaryen, lawfully... a guest of Lord Mopatis." Viserys spoke, almost revealing his true face, but with a slight facial distortion, he spoke again while smiling.

"Viserys Targaryen, dragon of Westeros, I have heard so much about the Princess." William pretended to be surprised and tried to appear as if he was honored to be in the presence of this "splendid" man.

Viserys couldn't help the smile that dominated his face; This man's ego is a serious problem.

Despite being an archetypal villain, he is certainly one of the easiest to fool; His ego is a major weakness.

It's like he can't think of the possibility that someone could cheat on him.

The conversation between the two continues. William is trying his best to make Viserys feel good about himself and that things are going well.

With so much said, William tried to pass himself off as a great merchant who owned as many ships as the Dothraki had horses.

Viserys eventually naively took much of what William said as truth; In fact, this poor stupid girl is very unfamiliar with everything in the world.

"Are you from Westeros?" Viserys was surprised by this information.

"Yes, Your Majesty, in Westeros the Houses still remember their true lords." William began to deceive Viserys in deeper ways, eventually lying that Viserys's taking back the Iron Throne would be simple and that it would be easier than he imagined.

It's just sad that a member of the Targaryen family would marry a Dothraki barbarian.

"It is unfortunate that a man of noble blood must marry a barbarian, but this barbarian has 50,000 men." Viserys began to speak with concern, as if the misfortune that had befallen his sister was not his fault but King Baratheon's for forcing him to have an army.

With a few more words, William supports Viserys's cause and declares that when the time is right, he will propose his ships take the Dothraki to Westeros and then reclaim his throne.

Of course it was a trick; William simply created an easier way for him to interact with Daenerys.

At this moment, William realized that a woman was entering the ballroom.

His eyes are looking for someone; he felt nervous; The time has come and soon she will be here.

Next, a 14-year-old girl with white hair and purple eyes, stunningly beautiful – an almost inhuman beauty – wearing a simple, sophisticated blue dress, simple yet elegant. cannot diminish her beauty. She slowly walked down the stairs with two servants.

Daenerys is beautiful; Her facial features were exquisite and she certainly had beauty unparalleled in the world. Dany's beauty is greatly enhanced in this magical world.

William found himself holding his breath; The long-awaited moment had come, but it was so wonderful that he couldn't stop running towards her, so he clenched his fists and tried to look away.

Unlike how William remembered her, of her after all the tragedies she had been through, she was now a shy and obedient young woman, walking and looking at the ground; she has very little self-esteem.

William wanted to take care of her, but looking at her now, he couldn't control himself. He will take care of her and help her be strong enough to overcome her fears and limitations; he will help her become stronger than ever; and he will prevent a tragedy from happening to him.

William was still talking to Viserys, but it was unavoidable to look at this beautiful girl from time to time.

He begins to disturb Viserys's thinking and begins to suggest that Daenerys needs to interact with other noble women and that William's older sister can help her become tougher and less "good" "more obedient", so that Dany can learn to control her future husband and make things simpler.

Viserys begins to like the idea; After all, if she could control the Dothraki barbarian, he would "take back" his crown all too easily.

The naive idiot finally agrees, and the next day, Daenerys will be taken "on a walk with William and his sister", and the next day, Dany and William's "sister" will begin to interact a lot so that Dany can be well educated. .

Using that as an excuse, William approached Dany.
