75. Weird Merchant

[THE PLANETOS]

Headline - The Old Wolf takes over Asshai.

It had been just a week since the world found out about the Starks of Winterfell striking and taking over Qarth. Now, a recent report says that the Asshai by the shadow was also attacked and taken over. Now the Wolves control the Jade Sea, as well as Jade Gates. It is yet to be seen what the Starks are really planning on doing.

The good news is that because of the recent actions of Lord Stark. The slave trade has lessened. Now, we should keep our eyes open to see where the Old Wolf strikes next.

...

Ser Willem Darry put down the newspaper and looked at the little Dany. She was now 1 year old and able to slowly walk. The old man Ragnarok was a blessing in disguise. He never harmed her, but showered her with love. They also didn't have to worry about money or safety anymore because of him.

Daenerys was happily playing with her dozens of plushie toys on the carpet. Ragnarok sat beside her and occasionally laughed.

"Ga-pah," Dany said while giving the small dragon toy to Ragnarok.

"Haha... Yes yes... Just a little more and you'll be able to say grandpa" he happily said and took the toy. He was very happy when the first word she spoke was to call him.

~Haha... Alexander would be surprised when she suddenly calls him Grandpa in their first meeting~ Ragnarok had been showing pictures of Alexander to Dany and also telling her stories.

...

Robert Baratheon had turned a new leaf. He had started regularly visiting the small council since the day Alexander left.

Currently, he sat in his Solar. Listening to some Jazz from the Gramophone and sipping on some Firewhiskey. He had stopped drinking too much and also whoring.

*Knock Knock*

"Ah... Come in goddammit. You've already ruined the mood." He growled.

Queen Cercei entered with her head held high. God had given her beauty but also too much pride with it. So much so that it would sometimes come to bite her in the back later.

"Husband, Lord Mace Tyrell has sent back a raven. Acknowledging the betrothal of our son and his young daughter Margaery. He will come to King's Landing soon," she said.

Suddenly Robert stood up and stopped the Gramophone. "What did you just say? A betrothal? When did I agree to that?"

"Y-You didn't, but I thought that the crown needed to mend relations with the Tyrells," she scaredly replied. She had received slaps from Robert many times before so fear was not missing from her face.

"Since when did you start worrying about the crown? I thought you only worried about your perfumes and wines. Tell Mace that I am thinking about it and he doesn't need to come," Robert said, trying to keep his anger in check.

"But, shouldn't we...."

"ENOUGH, woman. Why would I marry my children to traitors? Those flowers f*ckers can go to hell. I have the support of House Baratheon, Stark, and Vale. One of them just so happens to be the strongest and the richest. If I want to betroth my children, I'd rather do it with the children of House Stark or House Vale. Now go back to your little parties and stop using your brain," Robert angrily ordered.

Cercei knew not to anger him anymore and left. She didn't know what to do now. She was ordered to do this by her father and also understood the importance of it. House Stark now had too much power and say in the kingdom.

~If not for that damned old Stark, I would never sell my sweet Joffrey like this. Yes, it's all because of them.~ she again started forming some scheme.

...

"Grandpa, what's that?" Rina pointed at the distance while sitting on Alexander's shoulders. They were currently roaming the jungles of Yi Ti.

Medusa was also getting bored so she joined him. In the end, she also had the mentality of a child and she was missing her Grandpa. Her best friend, Monty the Hippogriff, also followed her.

"Awww... Such little snakes," Medusa said and ran to pick it up.

"Haha... Rina, they are Basilisks. They are very deadly snakes." Alexander said.

"Ba... Bas-isk? Just like big sister Medusa?" She asked.

"No, your big sis is more like the queen of all serpents"

"Waaa... BIG SISTER... YOU ARE A QUEEN". Rina shouted.

Medusa looked back in confusion, "A queen? Me?"

"Haha... Yes, you are. Aren't you the strongest serpent in the world? That makes you their queen," Alexander said.

"Wow... But where are my people? Wait, there are so many Basilisks here. I'll take them as my people," she started muttering.

"You can, but you have to promise me to look after them and never let them harm anyone. If they do, I'll be angry," he warned.

"Yes, Grandpa. I'll be very careful." She said and went to look for her new subjects.

"Ow... I want to be a queen too," Rina sadly sighed.

Alexander made her levitate in front of her. "You already are a queen, you are the queen of your Grandpa's heart. Look at your dress," he said and suddenly her clothes changed into a beautiful silver regal gown. A small crown also appeared on top of her head.

"Hahaha... Yay... Look at me." She started to move around in the air and showed off her dress to Monty. He let them play for a while.

"Haha... Okay, girls, it's time to go now. Back to Winterfell" Alexander clapped his hand.

"What! Already?" Medusa complained.

"Well, Rina's friends are waiting for her back at Winterfell. You also need to organize your new subjects."

"Yes, I need to show them the dress too" Rina chirped.

"Yes, I am a queen now. I must take care of my subjects," Medusa said seriously, being too much into the character.

...

After leaving Rina back in Winterfell, Alexander returned to Asshai. Dobby was still organizing things there. He wanted to see if he needed something before finally heading off to Valeria to complete his memories.

"Hey, Dobby. How's everything?"

"Everything's good, boss. The city was empty to begin with, and now because of your purifying it. It has even fewer people. I am going to publish an ad in the newspaper for people to migrate here. There's also a weird merchant who's been asking about you. Then there's the problem of the R'hllor, the Lord of Light worshippers." Dobby briefed.

"Okay, send the merchant and I'll deal with R'hllor worshippers. A deity that asks for human sacrifices is no god. It's a devil." He disgustedly said.

"Alright, Boss," Dobby affirmed and called for the merchant.

...

Alexander sat in a large office in the ex-hall of the thousand Thrones. Now it was called the Stark Essos Administrative Headquarters(S.E.A.H.)

A well-built man walked into the office with a big bag on his back. He had a wide smile on his face and had a jolly vibe going around.

"Haha... Greetings Lord Stark, I should probably call you King Stark now, haha" the man said.

"Well, that would be treason, son, and I like my head too much, though they can't really fight me even if I do declare myself king. So, I heard you were looking for me, and why do you look so happy?" Alexander inquired.

"What's not to be happy about? Until last week, I was a prisoner of crazy sorcerers in Stygai. People say that no one comes back alive from there. And here I am. Hahaha... Though I did lose my wings." He then showed a sad expression for a split second.

"Wings?" He asked.

"Yes, my name's Kevin, from the city of the winged men. We winged men don't really have real wings but for some reason, our arms are very strong. So strong that we can wear fake wings made of leather and fly in the air. I was originally a merchant but a sorcerer caught and did tests on my arms. Since then, I haven't been able to fly anymore. Ah... I'll miss that." He explained.

Alexander was truly surprised by the story. The men of the winged city must have gone through some mutations due to that black liquid from the moon. He still felt bad for the poor guy.

"I am very sad to hear that Kevin. Please tell me what can I do for you?" He asked.

"Haha... Well, after the sorcerers suddenly disappeared I checked around the whole Stagai and found these beautiful stones." He said and took out 6 egg-like Stone with beautiful patterns on them. With just one look Alexander understood that they were dragon eggs.

"Haha... These really are pretty but they aren't stones, son," Alexander said.

Kevin looked at his stone with interest and asked. "Then what are they?"

"They are old dragon eggs" He calmly replied.

"WHAT? Dragon eggs. Haha... Then getting caught by the sorcerers was a blessing," Kevin said and laughed.

~hmmm... 3 of these must be the ones Daenerys gets as her wedding gift in the show. But I'm pretty sure I had taken away all dragons and eggs from here to Dracheim. Did they fall later from the remaining part of the moon?~ he asked himself and decided to check the moon in the future.

"Yes, so. How much do you want for them?" He asked.

"Ummm... I really have no idea how much I should ask for dragon eggs." Kevin replied.

"Alright, what about this? I'll give you 20,000 gold Dragons, a ship to use for trading, membership in my merchant guild, and a medicine that can heal your arms." He offered.

"If you can heal my arms, I don't want anything else," Kevin firmly replied.

Alexander took out a vial from his desk and gave it to him. "Drink this"

Kevin surprisingly didn't ask anything and straight-up downed the vial. After some minutes, he started feeling warm in his arms.

"Woah...YES! YES! I am feeling stronger. I think I can fly again." He checked out his arms excitedly.

"Haha.. good, good. The other items are also prepared for you. You can take them whenever you want," he said.

"But, I don't need anything else," Kevin denied.

"Dragon eggs aren't cheap, son. You earned the money. Now, go and see your new ship"

"Hahaha... Okay, Lord Stark. Pleasure doing business with you," Kevin left.

~What a weird guy. What merchant says no to money?~ Alexander murmured.

"Sigh, should I give three of them to little Dany or not? Little Rina, Jon, and Eric can see dragons whenever they want in Dracheim, but what about Dany? Though she does have the biggest dragon by her side as an old man. I am also not sure what the future holds. By the speed I am conquering the world, Dany wouldn't need dragons." He fell into deep thoughts.
