Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.

Chapter 63: The Sea King's Invitation

As Gavin's fleet sailed towards the Stepstone Islands, countless merchant ships passed by.

Countless people saw the golden dragon soaring above the fleet, and they all showed expressions of panic and shock.

Gavin saw all this but ignored it. He knew in his heart that the existence of the Blazing Shadow would definitely cause waves among various forces, especially the Iron Throne and the Kingdom of Three Daughters.

The appearance of Blazing Shadow did give Gavin great confidence. At first, he just wanted to get dragon eggs in order to hatch a baby dragon, but he never expected to get an adult Blazing Shadow with extremely strong combat power.

However, he felt that he did not need to consider the idea of ​​the Iron Throne too much. Even if some people would regard him as a threat, he was not a peddler, nor was he an unknown little person.

He now has a huge fleet and the entire Stone Steps Archipelago. Even without the existence of Chiying, all forces must be cautious.

Gavin was thinking about where to place Chiying's home. After much deliberation, he chose Shipwreck Bay. The huge cave where the dragon egg was found before just fits Chiying's habit of living in caves. Moreover, there is only one channel into Shipwreck Bay, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and can effectively prevent others from plotting against Chiying.

The fleet continued to move forward, with the sea breeze blowing, and finally after sailing for more than ten days, Gavin saw the Bloodstone Island. He rode on the Blazing Shadow and flew into the sky towards the Bloodstone Island.

Gavin rode on Blazing Shadow, like a golden lightning streak across the sky, galloping towards Bloodstone Island.

When a huge shadow covered Bloodstone Island, the people on the island panicked at first and looked up at the sky, their eyes filled with fear and confusion.

Then they saw the people on the dragon's back. Their faces showed extreme surprise, their mouths wide open, unable to believe what they saw.

When they saw clearly that the person sitting on the dragon's back was actually their Lord Gavin, they were shocked beyond words. The crowd began to exclaim, whisper and discuss.

Gavin rode the Blazing Shadow directly onto the open space in front of the City Lord's Mansion. The huge impact force raised a cloud of dust.

Boris and Hassan, who had heard the news, rushed over. They looked at Gavin riding on Chiying's back and stood there in disbelief.

Boris' eyes widened, his lips trembling slightly, and he kept muttering to himself: "Silver hair and purple eyes. Silver hair and purple eyes, so that's it."

Hassan was so shocked that his jaw dropped and he was speechless for a long time. After a long while, he stammered as if waking up from a dream: "Sir, this... this is really incredible!"

Gavin jumped down from Chiying's back, looking calm and composed. He smiled at them and said, "Don't be so surprised. This is just the beginning. By the way, my partner is called Chiying."

Boris came back to his senses, and hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and said, "My Lord, your return brings such a shocking power. Bloodstone Island will surely be honored because of you."

Hassan also quickly echoed: "Yes, Lord, with the help of this magic dragon, how dare Reese be so arrogant!"

Gavin first called a soldier and ordered him to prepare food for Chiying, then looked at Hassan and Boris and said, "Come in with me, I have something to discuss with you."

The three of them then entered the study of the City Lord's Mansion. Gavin sat in front of the desk and said with a serious face, "I plan to rename Shipwreck Bay to Dragon Flame Bay. In addition, I plan to build defense facilities beside the waterway of Dragon Flame Bay and build a manor on the island. Chiying will live there in the future."

Boris frowned, thought for a moment and said, "My lord, it will take time to build these, probably several months." Gavin said it was okay, "We can just do it slowly. In addition, the islands we control are too scattered. Due to the paper business, the maester that the Citadel should have sent to me has not been sent out. We now lack effective means of communication and cannot always rely on messengers to deliver information, as the information will be delayed too much."

The two agreed, and Hassan said, "Sir, we can spend more money to bribe some maesters, and we can always get the technology of raven breeding."

Gavin said to Hassan again: "Send a team to find my uncle. If he finds Coburn, let them bring him back. Also, from now on, be alert to the movements of the royal fleet. With the Blazing Shadow, it may cause a violent reaction from the Iron Throne."

Hassan immediately responded: "Lord Gavin, I understand."

At this time, Boris interrupted and said, "My lord, a messenger from the Sea King has come to the island and invites you to visit Braavos."

Hassan listened to what Boris said, and then said to Gavin, "My lord, I am from Braavos. It is normal for the Sea King to invite nobles, royal families, and wealthy merchants from all over the world to visit him."

After hearing this, Gavin leaned back in his chair and thought for a moment, then said, "Are you saying that I won't be in danger if I go to Braavos?"

Hassan said: "Well, the guests invited by the Sea King have never been in danger. After the guests land on the land of Braavos, they are protected by the Sea King, which is similar to the rights of guests in Westeros."

Gavin smiled and said, "As my most loyal subordinates, I can tell you some things now. Aren't you curious about why I can ride a dragon?"

Boris and Hassan looked at each other and said in unison: "Sir, we are indeed curious, but as long as it is your decision, we support it."

Gavin smiled and explained to them: "The surname Belleris is one of the 40 dragon king families. My mother's ancestor happened to be a guest in Braavos and escaped the Doomsday catastrophe. In the subsequent Bloody Age, he was forced to flee Braavos, and the family sword was left there."

Gavin looked at Boris again and said, "The sword I asked you to send someone to negotiate the purchase of is the family sword of the Belleris family."

Boris suddenly realized: "So that's how it is, sir. No wonder you have always attached so much importance to that sword."

Hassan also nodded and said, "There is such a profound origin behind this. I thought you were of Targaryen blood."

Gavin thought for a moment and then said, "Boris, reply to the other party's messenger. I will go to the Sea King's Palace in Braavos as agreed. I don't know how the situation will be when I go to Braavos this time, but this is also an opportunity for me. This time I plan to take back the sword of my family and fulfill my mother's wish."

Boris responded, "Yes, sir, I'll do it right away."

Gavin looked at Hassan again and said, "Hassan, during this period of time, we must strengthen the defense of the island. We cannot relax at all. The appearance of Blazing Shadow will definitely attract spies."

Hassan nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, sir, I will make sure it's properly arranged."

Then the two of them took the order and left.
