———————————————————————

The next day early morning after we settled our camp close to the coast of Myr, I rode with five thousand men to Myr, to leave a message, surrender and die fast, or surrender and die slow.

Our camp was set fairly close to the city, two hours on hours, to optimize my troop's movements.

I knew Daenerys and my kids were safe, a raven had informed me of it, I could feel it too deep within my heart, but still…. just knowing they had attempted to take them away from me, forever. It fired up an unyielding monster of rage that was running wild deep within me; I wanted more than ever to kill those who had hands in this suicidal arrangement, I wanted to see their lives slip through their eyes.

"My Khal," One of my bloodriders said, bringing me back to reality, and it seems Myr was waiting for me, the city was closed, and there were people on the walls, the Magister, and some other nobles.

By the looks of it, they wanted to end this with a duel, the audience of highborns, and how they weren't trying to shoot me down with arrow shouted it was that way, they would send their champion, and he would fight for Myr, and he would die for Myr too.

"A boy riding with savages, you are no true king, you are nothing! And today we will show you that!" I could hear the magister cackle in amusement, he was like every Magister, totally despicable, disgusting, repulsive, and right now, there wasn't anything I wanted more than to cut his head off, "Our champion will show you that!"

"Let me my Khal; it would be my honor!" My bloodrider said, practically begging to be my champion, but I silenced him with a plain glare; if someone was going to fuck their morale was me.

Seconds after the doors of Myr opened, and a man with a horse galloped out of the city, their champion, confirming my suspicions, they wanted to make an example of my forces, by defeating my champion with theirs, that way if they won, which they would not, it would boost the morale of everyone serving them, too bad I was about to drop that morale so low they would need therapists.

I started walking towards the champion, from afar I could clearly see he was three feet or more above my height, a giant on his own right, With a smile, The giant stops around fifty meters from me and turns to his people shaking his massive two-handed axe over his head while shouting how he would kill me and my army would follow. Everyone in Myr cheered for him, including their army, that is supporting the giant by slamming their spears against their shields.

Being supremely bored with this sad facade, I started to sprint towards him, initiating the fucking duel once and for one, with shield, and sword in hands. The giant turned around at this with a flashing smile throwing a spear at me.

Without breaking my stride, I raise my shield, blocking the attack.

I don't stop, nor slow down, I just keep going towards him, smiling; the giant in reaction to this snarls at me and hoists a second spear and hurls it at me with even greater strength, but once again I simply raise my shield, blocking the attack and breaking the spear in two.

With a smile, I stop for a second as I cast aside my sword, immediately speeding up towards him.

By this point, the big man knows even with his limited brain power that spears won't kill me, so with a growl, he unsheathed a massive two-handed sword to wield on his left hand while he used the two-handed axe on his right. With a beastly growl, the giant lets loose a battle cry, and charges at me.  

It took me a few seconds to be in front of the soon to be dead men, who in reaction to my speed tried to raise his weapons trying to crush me with a double strike, but I lunge forward with terrifying speed closing the gap to his personal space, and before he even had the chance to use his weapons and bring them down on me, I proceeded to thrust and bash my shield straight through his skull repeatedly, over and over and over again, until there wasn't anything but a puddle of blood where his head used to be.

"There will be no mercy, there will be no peace; those who oppose me today WILL SUFFER!" I shouted for everyone to hear, as I spat on the former champion.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After killing the champion, I left the borders of Myr, going back to my camp to coordinate with my army, I still had to plan how we would approach the siege, for one part my Kraken was already laying waste to their navy, and it a matter of hours, all their ships would be down the sea, unfortunately for me, the siege would take more than that, I had many options, between them was, burning the city, poisoning the water supply, and more.

But I wanted to have something to rule after the dust settled, and I would.

So after a few hours discussing and planning with my generals, I decided to infiltrate and open the gates myself, breaking their defence from the inside out, if that did work out, all my generals had to do was have the army in the gates of Myr, by tomorrow morning.

With the plan at hand, I left my generals in charge, while I rode with a horse to the castle, with nothing but two ravens and my blade on my side, once inside I would have to find someone stupid enough to betray their people just enough for me to get in with my army, and then kill them.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was dark, very dark, the moonlight barely shining tonight, and thanks to that, nothing could be seen unless you were a nocturnal animal, the perfect time to sneak inside the castle.

With patience and focus, I climbed the castle walls, barehanded making sure not to make any sound whatsoever, step by step taking my time, I knew once I was on the wall, I would find archers waiting for me, so I had to be careful, if I could avoid killing anyone during this infiltration it would be most beneficial because I would avoid people going after me, but that's just wishful thinking, and that didn't exist on war.

After roughly fifteen minutes of climbing, I was nearly at the top; three archers were patrolling the area, sadly for them, they would have to die.

Pushing my entire body up above the wall with my hands, I dived the archers, killing them so fast that they didn't even have time to process what was going on, they just fell like lifeless dolls to the ground, that was mercy, not that they deserve it, but killing them with a single swing of my blade was as merciful as I could be, and I didn't want to be merciful.

Moving through the shadows, while using my ravens to locate every enemy within the area, I avoided every single soldier, if I had to take a guess, I would say the Magister would know someone infiltrated by morning because the new archers from the morning shift would find the ones I killed there, but by that moment, it would be already too late.

"Magister Porly, the army is moving towards us, but considering their speed, they don't intend to attack," A voice caught my attention, no that I recognized, but the information was of importance to me.

"The young westerosi must be planning to scare us with his massive numbers," The Magister laughed, "Too bad our attempt to kill him and his family failed, it would've made our life easier, now all I have to do is wait for Illyrio and together we will crush this thorn in our sides,"

What a lucky surprise, I found the idiot who rules this city, and he admitted trying to kill me, and my family, and while right now there wasn't anything I wanted more than to torture him to the point where his sanity was forever lost, I had a mission, that in the long run would ensure my victory.

If I killed him, his men would eventually overwhelm me, and I would die, and I am not ready to try and see if the god of light will edo tensei my ass back to the living, I had enough of the gods for an entire lifetime, so I rather avoid situations where I would need him or them.

So taking a deep breath, I moved forward with my plan, leaving the Magister behind, for now, just for now, he would live.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After hours exploring and sneaking the city at night, I found the gates I was looking for, but the system used to open them proved to be complicated for myself, it was one of those gates you needed two-man to open them, one in each corner to pull the levers, which was humanly impossible for me… I guess, so with this in mind, I modified my plan a bit.

Knowing I would need help to open the gates, I set my sights to the only source of willing men inside this place that would even consider helping me.

Myr's Prison.

But I wasn't going to jailbreak any criminal,  I had to see their charges? Fortunately for me, the prison I infiltrated was mostly inhabited by petty criminals, so I took the first man I saw, and freed him for this shit hole, his crime? Stealing food for his family, his sentence? Dying on the plaza for everyone to see, what did I offer him? A job with a good and stable income, and his freedom, if he helped me.

It wasn't surprising when he cried while accepting my offer, but things went downhill from there, see I would've stopped my prison break with him, but…. I can't turn away, so many willing men that are absolutely not deserving of death and that also happen to be begging to help me take the Magister down, some just for a piece of bread others for their freedom, some for a job.

So, considering my long term plans, I accepted. Besides, it's not like I was freeing rapers, killers, or something worse, no. For some reason, this prison had hundreds of so-called criminals, that had only committed petty crimes, and even though their crimes were at much deserving of a few months or years of jail, they were still sentenced to death.

A tad harsh and sad for them, but just what I needed, people hating the current system and willing to support anyone for a chance of retribution, so by the end the night, I had freed around two hundred men while killing along the way around fifty guards.

But a bunch of men without weapons were nothing but sacks of flesh begging to be cut, so we raided the prison, killing every guard, and stealing every weapon.

In the end, I had two hundred men, poorly equipped, but ready to die for a new era.

The first thing I did once I was outside the prison was to order the men I had just liberated to move in groups around the city while hiding their presence the best they could, their mission was simple, they would wait for me to rush at the gates to come out and cause a diversion, buying me as much time as possible.

With that done, I sneaked back to the gates with four men following me through the shadows, thank god the gates were conveniently somewhat close to the prison, once we were there, all we could do was wait, my ravens would tell me when it was time to open the doors.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Minutes turned into hours, but our time lurking in the shadows was coming to an end, for a raven was flying close by shouting.

*OPEN THE GATES!* My raven cawed loudly, flying above the gate.

Giving the signal, I jumped out of the shadows, killing two of the guards nearby the gate with a single swing as I rushed to the gate with my current helpers.

As we approached the gate, more and more men started to pour into us, pushing us back, or at least they tried to, I kept swinging my blade, leaving a trail of bodies behind me.

Soon enough, it was diversion time, the men I had freed from their prisons charged into battle, reclaiming their freedom, and buying me more than enough time, to open the gates.

My army was outside charging at full speed towards the open gates, a few minutes away of us, all I had to do was hold my ground for a minute, and I would win this.

"Come on! Fuckers!" I shouted as I started to slaughter any men getting close to the doors, my newly acquired friends were falling one by one, but they had completed their mission superbly, and I would honor their deaths with my blade.
