Chereads / Game of Thrones: The Drogon Voice / Chapter 76 - Chapter 76: Needs Cleaning Up

Chapter 76 - Chapter 76: Needs Cleaning Up

The newly freed people of Meereen had long regarded Myrceros as a hero of the slave uprising, and when Daenerys killed him, it immediately aroused their public outrage.

Not only did they attack Daenerys, they also attacked the Great Lord and his men, leading to the current riot.

After listening to Jorah's narration, Drogon was also judging the cause of the riot in his heart. The decision of the Dragon Queen to kill Myrcella was not wrong.

No matter what the reason was for Michelangelo to kill the Son of the Harpy privately, it was out of hatred or because he thought he had led the uprising and was proud of himself, thinking that the Dragon Queen would not do anything to him.

He blatantly violated the Dragon Queen's decision and privately killed the Son of the Harpy who had been captured with great difficulty and had already been announced to be put on public trial.

Whether it is to maintain her own dignity or to uphold the justice of the law, the Mother of Dragons must kill him.

This reminded Drogon of the scene when Robb executed the head of the Karstark family, the situation was very similar.

However, Rickard, the patriarch of the Karstark family, only killed two young captives privately. Although they had special identities, they were just captives. Robb chopped off Rickard's head out of his self-proclaimed morality.

However, when two armies are confronting each other and have hatred against each other, how much is morality worth?

Moreover, the main reason why Rickard killed the prisoners privately was that Robb's mother Catelyn released Jaime privately and used him to exchange for her daughter in King's Landing.

Robb did not consider who Rickard would seek revenge on after his son's death, so Rickard chose to kill the prisoners out of anger.

However, Robb only relied on his own moral standards and ignored the advice of his wife, mother and men, and still chopped off Rickard's head, resulting in the loss of half of the army's strength.

To put it bluntly, Robb brought it upon himself, but Daenerys killing Myrcella was completely different from Robb.

The reason why the new free men resent Daenerys, whom they once regarded as "Misha", is that they are simple and ignorant, with only simple good and evil and hatred for the Great Lord in their hearts. To put it bluntly, they are ignorant and do not know how to be grateful.

They will not consider the reasons why Daenerys killed Myrceros, nor will they think about the consequences of Myrceros's disobedience to Daenerys as the Queen.

Just because of the death of an uprising hero, they hate the queen who once liberated them all. The "Misha" in their mouths is really cheap.

[It's time to deal with it!] This is what Drogon thinks of the free men who participated in the riot in Meereen.

After hearing the cause of the riot, Tyrion couldn't help but recall the Battle of King's Landing in which he was injured. The nobles of King's Landing who were protected by him not only did not speak for him when he was on trial, but also blindly accused him of being a regicide.

Daenerys freed all the slaves in Meereen, but just because she killed a person who deserved to be killed, she was hated and besieged by most of the slaves. Even he felt sorry for Daenerys.

Shireen was sitting in a chair, also frowning as she thought about the causes and consequences of the riot in Meereen, trying to find a solution from the books she had read.

Daenerys originally felt a little guilty about killing Myrceros, but that feeling disappeared after she heard Drogon's thoughts.

She did not kill the wrong people, and she did not do anything wrong to the slaves of Meereen. This riot reminded her of Astapor half a month ago, and made her once again witness the unpredictable psychology of slaves.

Daenerys asked Tyrion and the others to think quietly. She continued the meeting that was interrupted by Tyrion and the others' unexpected arrival, and asked Daario: "Daario, based on your experience living in Slaver's Bay, do you know the specific origin of the Harpy?"

Hearing Daenerys' question, Daario frowned and thought for a while before saying, "This organization is very mysterious. I don't know much about it. I only know that it seems to be established by the nobles of the New and Old Ghis cities in the Bay of Sorrow and the slave owners in the Slaver's Bay. It is responsible for safeguarding their interests. It has no fixed location and supreme leader."

Daenerys nodded and was about to speak again when the door of the council chamber was suddenly pushed open. An Unsullied walked in, came to Grey Worm and handed him a scroll.

Grey Worm handed the letter to Barristan who was beside Daenerys. He took the letter and looked at it, and found Varys's secret mark on it, so he handed it to Daenerys.

Daenerys took the letter and unfolded it. The more she read, the gloomier her face became. After reading it, she said to everyone in the meeting hall: "The wise lord of Yunkai has secretly contacted the new and old nobles of Ghis and is preparing to attack Yunkai. Astapor will also face their simultaneous attack."

[This is the rhythm of an all-out attack! ] Considering the slave riot in Meereen today, Drogon knew that this was a premeditated large-scale operation.

When the others heard the news announced by Daenerys, they also frowned slightly.

"Ser Jorah, what do you suggest about this?" Daenerys asked Jorah after everyone had digested the news for a while.

"Astapor and Yunkai need to send more reinforcements. It may be difficult to defend the city with only a thousand Unsullied. Meereen also needs to strengthen its defense to prevent the harpies from attacking from both inside and outside." Jorah said with a frown.

Daenerys nodded and looked to her left again, "Grey Worm, what do you suggest?"

"I am willing to lead the Unsullied to Yunkai or Astapor!" Grey Worm said with a determined look on his face.

"Your Majesty, Grey Worm is not suitable to go to Yunkai and Astapor. He should stay to protect you!" Barristan objected after hearing Grey Worm's words.

"The harpy's target is you. Even if we lose Yunkai and Astapor, we can still take them back." Barristan always puts Daenerys' safety first.

"I have you to protect me." Daenerys responded, and added in her heart, "And Drogon!"

"There is too much chaos in Meereen. If someone attacks Meereen from outside again, this pyramid will no longer be safe." Barristan continued to object.

Daenerys knew that Barristan was doing this for her own good, but she was unwilling to abandon the two thousand Unsullied stationed in Yunkai and Astapor. Moreover, Daeron, an old minister of her brother Rhaegar, was still in Yunkai, and she did not want him to die under her leadership.

After thinking for a while, Daenerys ordered: "Daario, you lead two thousand Second Sons to support Astapor. Grey Worm, you let Little Sparrow lead two thousand Unsullied to support Yunkai and cooperate with Daeron to defend Yunkai."

Daario only wanted to stay with Daenerys. When he heard that he was going to be sent to Astapor, he knew that now was not the time for him to refuse. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty, I only need to take a thousand men with me. The other members of the Second Sons can help you find out about the harpies in Meereen."

The Sons of the Harpy hide among the common folk of Meereen and are extremely difficult to spot, donning their golden harpy helmets only when they are committing murder.

The Unsullied had a very difficult time finding out about them, but the Second Sons were different. They hung out in taverns, brothels, and bathhouses, and it was easy to get information from those places.
