Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

“The three0,000 troops stationed at Old Oak are constantly training, and Earl Mathos Rowan is determined to resist.”

Duke Tywin stared straight ahead at the deep corridor.

“Our army will head south tomorrow.”

The deep and capable majestic voice echoed in the golden corridor, reaching the distant places beyond sight, and the walls of gold shone brightly, as if responding.

Casterly Rock, which has never fallen.

Joffrey was walking inside it, discussing the war with its owner, Duke Tywin, talking about death, money, and power, conceiving campaigns, deals, and conspiracies.

Casterly Rock had undoubtedly heard many similar words, and was already accustomed and tired of them.

Fortunately.

Joffrey was young enough to still maintain interest and pleasure in many things.

“Grandfather, I wish you a triumphant return in advance.”

“The territory of the Oakhart family will be incorporated into the West, the title will be revoked, and a permanent governor will be established.” Joffrey spoke of the distribution of the spoils of victory as a matter of course.

“Then, in your opinion, Grandfather, how should the Rowan family's territory and title be handled?”

Two sweet fruits.

The Oakhart family resides in Old Oak, and its territory is located on the coast of the northern Reach, bordering the West, guarding the coastal avenue, and close to the Shield Islands, Highgarden's sea defense line, which can be called the northern city wall of the Reach.

Taking it down would disintegrate the Reach's independent defense, and the West could directly penetrate Highgarden, bringing troops to the city, making it impossible for the Tyrell family to respond calmly.

The Rowan family of Goldengrove is even more remarkable.

Its fiefdom almost includes the entire northern Reach, with many vassals and loyal knights, not much worse than the liege lord Tyrell.

In addition, the Rowan family has a long history, noble bloodline, prestigious reputation, and good relations with the Tyrell, Hightower, Redwyne, and Tarly families, who are married and support each other.

Regardless of strength or reputation, among the hundreds of earls in the Seven Kingdoms, the Rowan family is definitely in the top ten.

However, Duke Tywin answered irrelevantly: “Lady Aevon Oakhart has many sons, and Tyrell is likely to support one of them to claim the inheritance of Old Oak, placing the royal family and the West in a dilemma.”

Joffrey shook his head gently, “There is no need to worry at all. As long as Grandfather is willing to accept this gift, someone will clean up all kinds of troubles.”

He smiled, “Didn't a thousand holy war troops be transferred from King's Landing under your command?”

Along with the reinforcements, there were also three hundred artillery crystal cores. The crystal cores came with runes and magical energy, making them easy to transport and carry. When combat is needed, the warlocks only need to fuse them with steel to recreate the artillery.

The complete victory on the Western Front will be created by this.

“Even so,” Duke Tywin appeared quite cautious, “the Reach will not willingly accept it, and all surviving families will maintain a strong vigilance or hostility, and the kingdom will still not be peaceful.”

Tywin looked at Joffrey, “Why not leave an unmarried Oakhart girl to inherit the title? We can find her an excellent husband.”

A long tradition. Rule the partner's fiefdom as a husband or wife, allowing power to transition smoothly.

But this does not satisfy Joffrey.

In his plan, Old Oak should have greater changes after the war.

Rain House was the beginning of the governor, and Old Oak was a further test, not granting titles, only setting up officials, and the personnel were completely appointed by the royal family.

This is also why Old Oak is to be included in the administration of the West.

Limiting the inevitable disputes and conflicts to the level of the Reach and the West, the royal family can remain aloof and take sides as a referee to achieve the desired goal.

Duke Tywin is unwilling to play the villain?

Or did he realize the destruction this would cause to the noble feudal system? As a duke, he resisted, rather than supporting the royal centralization as an elder?

Joffrey kept walking.

“Grandfather, don't you want the West to expand its territory?

Tywin and Joffrey walked side by side.

“The West, the Reach, are just names. As long as Old Oak is in our hands, its nominal affiliation does not matter.”

“Besides,” Duke Tywin said meaningfully, “isn't it all under the rule of the Iron Throne?”

Joffrey sighed.

“Grandfather, you naturally understand that the territories under the Iron Throne are very different.”

Joffrey directly pointed out the comments.

“Like the West, which is as close to the royal family as a family, plus the families and fiefs that directly pledge allegiance to the Iron Throne, these can be regarded as the loyal forces of the royal family.”

“Most of the lords in the North, Riverlands, and Vale are not at odds with the royal family, and can barely be regarded as allies.”

“The Reach and the Stormlands are even stronger challengers to the royal family, one wants the throne, and the other wants to return to the court and seize real power.”

“As for Dorne, it is drifting outside and is hardly considered a vassal under the throne.”

Joffrey spoke eloquently, without any evasion, as if he really regarded Tywin as a close elder.

“Grandfather, should we let this situation continue?”

Joffrey's eyes were earnest.

“Aegon the Conqueror's three dragons failed to conquer Dorne, nor could they make the Seven Kingdoms sincerely submit, so they had to maintain the status quo and govern the kingdom with the help of the lords.”

“But now it's different.”

“We have a more powerful and precise force than dragons, enough to bestow grace on everyone, so that the world will submit.”

“If such a great opportunity is wasted, the gods will not allow it!”

Joffrey's tone was firm.

“Grandfather, don't limit your vision to Casterly Rock. The Seven Kingdoms, Essos, and a wider unknown world, our journey is endless!”

Every word showed his great confidence.

It is no wonder. The God-given Light Curtain and various magical powers are undoubtedly a crushing blow to this era. How could he not be confident?

Duke Tywin did not respond.

The two continued to move forward, and every step on the golden stone floor was clearly audible.

The field of vision gradually widened.

This is a spacious palace. Hundreds of mighty armors of various shapes, ancient or shiny, are displayed in the niches carved on the rock walls.

Hall of Heroes.

Joffrey knew that behind each armor was buried a brave Lannister knight, duke, or king who died in battle.

Boom ~ ~ ~

Bursts of thunder came from the ground, and that was the roar of the tide.

Duke Tywin stopped in front of a bronze armor.

Joffrey approached to examine it. Time had left countless traces on this armor. Even with careful maintenance, the armor was already covered with copper rust and mottled armor pieces.

“Joffrey Leyton.” Duke Tywin said.

“Have you heard of him?”

Joffrey nodded slightly, “An Andal knight thousands of years ago, who married the only daughter of King Jelo III of Casterly Rock, and later changed his name to Joffrey Lannister, crowned as Joffrey I, and ruled the Kingdom of Casterly Rock.”

Duke Tywin gently stroked the ancient armor.

“He also has a suit of iron armor, but it has long since disappeared with the wind. Only this bronze armor produced in Casterly Rock has been preserved, along with Casterly Rock.”

Crack ~

The bronze armor was suddenly taken off by Duke Tywin, and the armor pieces collided back and forth, almost shattering.

“Casterly Rock is willing to offer this as a gift.”

Duke Tywin's eyes were filled with many complex meanings, “Do you like it? Your Majesty.”

Joffrey stretched out a palm.

The moment he touched the armor, the bronze flowed down his palm to his whole body, restoring it to its original state.

Joffrey I.
