Chapter 26: Onion Knight's Shock

Shireen had never thought that Drogon could not only understand the Common Language, but could also write. She remembered that the book did not seem to mention that dragons could write! It only said that they were very smart and could understand what humans said.

"I don't know your name yet." Shireen asked hurriedly after knowing that Drogon could write.

Now that he had been exposed, Drogon no longer hid his true colors. He flew to Shireen's desk, picked up her quill, dipped it in ink, and wrote the word "Drogon". Then he wrote: "Don't tell anyone."

"Yes! I will definitely not tell anyone else." shireen nodded her head solemnly.

She knew that not only could she not tell anyone Drogon's name, she couldn't even tell anyone that she had met him.

Although she was young, she knew how much impact the rebirth of a dragon that had disappeared for more than a hundred years would have, how many people wanted to get him, and how smart Drogon was.

Looking at the crooked letters written by Drogon with his little claws, Shireen didn't think it was ugly at all.

She had just been laughing at the ugly words on the paper, but she had never expected that they were actually written by Drogon with his claws.

She knew how difficult it was to teach the Onion Knight to read. It took her so long to teach him how to read a book. She didn't expect that Drogon, a little dragon, could write.

"Can greyscale really be cured completely?" Shireen still couldn't believe it and asked Drogon again.

Many people said that she would not live long when she was a child. Finally, her father visited many famous doctors and finally controlled her condition, but the gray scales on her face would never go away.

Because of it, she could only stay in her room since she was a child, and her mother hardly let her go anywhere.

"It can be cured, but not now," Drogon continued.

shireen did not ask any more questions. As long as she could be cured, she would wait even if it took a little longer.

Seeing that Shireen didn't ask any more questions, Drogon probably knew what she was thinking, but she could wait, but her father couldn't.

Thinking of this, Drogon picked up his pen again and wrote: "Where is the Onion Knight?"

Shireen didn't expect that Drogon actually knew about the Onion Knight Davos.

Sadly said: "Father said he was a traitor and put him in the dungeon."

"You can see him?" Drogon changed the parchment.

"Guard Kala likes to drink, so I can go to the dungeon when he is on duty." Shireen replied.

"I will write him a letter and you give it to him, but you must promise not to read what's inside." drogon continued writing.

"I... promise!" shireen said after a moment's hesitation, wondering what the important content was that she was not allowed to read.

Shireen didn't know that her father was no longer the good father who visited famous doctors to cure her greyscale disease when she was a child. He has now become an ambitious duke who only believes in the red woman and is determined to seize the Iron Throne.

Shireen would be very sad to know that her dear father the Duke wanted to burn her to death. This was too cruel for a little girl in her teens.

After Shireen made her promise, Drogon spread out the paper and prepared to write a letter to the Onion Knight. Only then did he remember that he only knew the Onion Knight but not his real name.

She stopped writing and asked shireen before starting to write again. shireen knew that Drogon didn't want her to read it, so she turned away.

"Ser Davos, Stannis will burn Shireen's uncle to death soon, and then he will burn Shireen to death. If you don't want her to die, find a way to send him out of Dragonstone. I will contact you when the time is right, and someone will pick up Shireen, and you won't stay in the dungeon for too long."

Davos is not afraid of being punished in the future, so he secretly released Robert's illegitimate son. He loves Shireen so much that he will definitely find ways to save her.

After writing, Drogon rolled up the parchment and asked Shireen for a piece of string so that she could help tie it up.

"Are you leaving again?" Seeing Drogon flying to the windowsill, Shireen felt reluctant.

She had no friends since she was a child, but now she considered Drogon a friend. He gave her delicious food and said he could find someone to heal her face. If he wasn't a friend, what was he?

Drogon nodded, waved his scarlet wings at her, and flew high into the sky.

Seeing Drogon quickly turn into a black dot, although Shireen felt uncomfortable, she was not as lost as when Drogon left for the first time.

Even if Drogon hadn't said when he would come to see her, Shireen knew he would come anyway.

Looking at the letter in her hand, Shireen knew that even if she read it, Drogon would not know what it was, and the content of the letter was probably very related to her, otherwise Drogon would not have stopped her from reading it.

Resisting the urge to peek, she waited until it was time for Clark to guard the dungeon, and then went to the dungeon to find Davos.

Five minutes later, they arrived at the dungeon and found that Clara was indeed fast asleep. shireen walked outside the fence.

Davos' hair and beard had turned gray, and the burns on his face had not yet healed. When he saw Shireen, he humbly came over and continued to learn to read.

Shireen did not take out the book, but handed Davos a roll of parchment.

"Princess, what is this?" Davos took the parchment and was a little confused.

"Someone... asked me to give it to you, and I don't know what's written in it." shireen lied.

Who else would let the princess bring a letter to me? Davos untied the rope with some confusion and unfolded the parchment.

He has been learning to read with shireen these days and can already read books slowly. Although he cannot recognize all the words on the paper, he can understand the general meaning.

"Princess...Princess, who gave you this letter?" Davos asked with a trembling voice, his chest heaving.

The content is so shocking that Stannis actually burned his own daughter to death.

"Ser Davos, he won't let me tell anyone about him, I gave him my word, what does it say?"

She couldn't read it herself, so Davos telling her it shouldn't be considered a breach of contract! Shireen looked at Davos's shocked expression and became more curious about the contents of the letter.

Davos knew from Shireen's expression that she had not read the letter. The letter was not sealed with wax, and Shireen could have opened it and read it on the way to the dungeon, but she didn't.

From this it seems that Shireen really promised the writer that she would not read the contents of the letter, and she trusts that person very much.

Although the content of the letter is a bit crazy, according to the information obtained from the pirate captain, the soldiers who opposed the Red Woman were defined as dark slaves by Stannis, and would be sacrificed to the Lord of Light when the Red Woman needed them, and receive enlightenment from the flames.

After the defeat in King's Landing, Stannis has completely obeyed the Red Woman's words and may even burn his own daughter to death.

After losing his son, Davos already treated Shireen, the kind and lovely princess, as his own daughter. How could he let her be burned to death by the Red Woman?

"Princess, do you think the person who sent you the letter can be trusted?" Shireen was unwilling to reveal the identity of the messenger, so Davos could only ask from the side.

"Of course I can trust him. He also said he would find someone to heal my face." She trusted the dragon Drogon 100%.

Davos knew that although Shireen looked innocent and cute, she was not stupid at all. She could tell who was good to her and who was not.
