Jon lunged again.
The boy had leveled up in battle and was at level 59 with 7 skill points.
The weeks he spent attacking the city made him angry.
If he went with all his power, the city would not last even a few days.
"That damn barrier" he muttered, annoyed.
He had already made up his mind.
Now that reinforcements from Valyria had arrived, he knew what was next.
A disgrace for the citizens.
But he could not continue wasting resources and losing men for his pity.
" Wizards are using them as sacrifices," he told himself.
It was an excuse.
A good excuse but it didn't matter anymore.
The decision was made.
He looked at the soldiers waiting beside him.
He thrust his sword forward and they gave battle cries and headed off to fight the enemies.
Jon followed closely behind them.
The plan was already in motion.
He saw the enemies approaching.
"Blood aura" he murmured.
A red glow appears on the sword.
A mercenary attacked him, he stopped the attack, the aura effected him as he seemed in pain.
With a quick movement he tore off the mercenary's right arm, he screamed, and fell to his knees before being decapitated.
It was the first upgrade of the blood aura, dismember, it was like having the level 8 and the level 4 swordsmanship skill at the same time.
His favorite swordsmanship skill without a doubt.
Other mercenaries looked at him in fear as they approached.
Jon easily defended himself against their attacks.
His speed and strength attributes were much higher now, his speed was impressive even for a veteran.
His strength did not let anything push him back.
Soon, more and more mercenaries fell.
Jon watched as more and more mercenaries came out of the city and attacked his army.
"It's time" he whispered.
He looked back and gave a signal to his soldiers.
Rock throwers sent giant rocks crashing down on the mercenaries as trumpets blared across the battlefield.
A few seconds later a roar was heard in the sky, no, it was two roars.
Jon watched as two dragons fell upon Qarth at high speed, both of them expelling flames upon the city. The shield was immediately broken, the dragon fire could not be stopped by such weak magic.
But just as Jon predicted.
The dragons couldn't hold back, even their knights couldn't stop them from attacking buildings.
"Damn," he muttered.
The two dragon riders tried to keep the damage to a minimum, but failed. Jon could summon several now after gaining some more levels.
He shook his head, he didn't have time for this.
He gave a signal with his sword.
"Take the city"

Robb arrived at Riverrun a few days ago, his men were still preparing, Jorah Mormont spoke privately with Ned, if his father was tempted to execute him he didn't show it, he was cordial with Mormont, but not kind, Jorah was okay with that.
On his side, they talked about the Tyrells, he learned of their engagement, a second wife, and the daughter of one of the guardians.
Someone very important.
Someone who was currently the queen of Westeros, Robb had leveled up while coming by boat, he was level 34 with 8 points, he could have raised one more skill, but decided to wait, the boy looked at the woman in front of him.
Robb looked intently at Margaery Tyrell.
He couldn't deny it.
She was beautiful.
Margaery was a beautiful and graceful woman, with brown hair in soft curls, large brown eyes, flawless skin, and a slender and well-proportioned figure. The boy also noticed that she was very intelligent, clearly trained by the Queen of Thorns.
The boy openly admitted that an engagement with such a woman would not be bad at all.
But he shook his thoughts away after imagining his wife staring at him coldly.
"My lord," she said.
"Eh, yes, my lady, I can guarantee your protection and that of your brother of course, just as my father has informed me, I am sure my sister will be pleased as well," he said.
The woman smiled at him.
Robb did everything he could to not look down and meet her eyes, the girl's dress had a bit of a low neckline and the boy was very tempted to look down a little.
Luckily he kept it.
"I am very grateful, as is my family... Queen Sansa has also been very kind, she was able to cure my brother with her magic, although he is still bedridden" she said.
The word bed echoed in Robb's mind and in a moment of weakness he lowered his gaze, quickly lifting them to look into her eyes, but Margaery noticed the interest and gave him a beautiful smile.
Robb tried to think of something ugly, so as not to get more excited, and then he noticed that she called Sansa queen.
Her marriage to Aegon gave her that title, but strictly speaking, until they sit on the Iron Throne they are just lords, not kings.
Still, he didn't correct her.
' Look into her eyes, Robb. In her eyes ' he thought desperately.
Again he couldn't help it, he lowered his gaze a little.
The boy picked them up a second later, cursing his weakness.
Margaery smiled again.
"Your brother is still in bed?" he asked.
Normally, his sister cured any physical ailment perfectly.
"His problem is more mental than physical, although some time in bed will help him recover soon" she informed.
Robb nodded.
"Regarding our engagement," she said
The boy swallowed.
"Yes, unfortunately, I am married, I regret not being able to give you the title of only wife, but as you see, I love my wife," he said.
Margaery nodded.
"Lady Talisa is certainly charming," she admitted.
"It is... Even so, this commitment is only verbal, my lady. They may possibly give you a better one " he said.
She smiled at him.
"No, if it's my opinion, I prefer this one," she told him.
Margaery Tyrell's captivating smile made him feel more excited.
"Well, my lord, hopefully, this will be settled soon. I'm leaving. I want to see my brother" she told him.
Robb stood up to greet her.
Margaery turned and walked out.
Robb couldn't help but admire her rear end, it was mesmerizing, how her hip movements made her waist move from left to right.
' I wonder if I can get some privilege ' he thought, looking at her with desire.
He shook his head afterwards.

Daenerys attacked Yiti's ships with fury from her dragon.
She and Rhaenys both gained three levels in battle, both were at level 9 with 3 skill points.
The woman launched herself on her dragon, while she watched the ships being set on fire by a fire-covered Rhaenys.
Grey Worm took control of the western ships, but they seemed to have no end.
There were simply too many of them.
She heard a trumpet, and turned to see some ships approaching.
" From Meeren? " she wondered.
She watched as they collided with a ship that Rhaenys was attacking.
"Allies… Who commands them? " she muttered.
She saw another ship approaching and with her dragon, she incinerated it, the girl felt a bright light in her eyes and reached the white room.
She sighed tiredly and headed to the computer.

Rhaenys turned to fire again when a ship crashed into her ship.
Oberyn, Obara, and Nymeria leapt at her.
The Valyrian queen blinked at them.
"You're hot! " Nymeria told him and laughed.
"You can say that again," Rhaenys said.
Mercenaries approached and attacked.
Oberyn began to fight, and Rae followed.
They cornered the captain.
He cursed and drew his saber.
Oberyn pointed his spear at him.
The captain sighed and surrendered.
The man lowered his spear, Nymeria and Obara caught him, Rhaenys frowned, and in a quick movement the captain struck Obara and caught Nymeria, he put a knife to her neck.
"GET BACK!" he shouted.
Obara stood up and pointed her spear at him.
"Enough," Rhaenys said.
The captain looked at her.
"Let her go and we will let you go, we don't care about a simple captain," she said.
He nodded, but Nymeria kicked his foot and he released her.
Obara threw her spear from where she stood and pierced his stomach, the captain fell, but not before throwing his knife at Nymeria.
Nymeria looked on in horror and couldn't move in time, but a shadow covered her.
"FATHER!" Rhaenys heard and saw Oberyn in disbelief with a knife stuck in his chest.
Rhaenys stepped forward, turning into fire and embracing the captain until he was incinerated.
She felt a bright glow in her eyes and arrived at the white room.
"Uncle Oberyn," she whispered.
She quickly walked to the computer.

She pressed yes, a list came up and she pressed Jon, he appeared perhaps because he was at a higher level and didn't need to level up, or perhaps because he needed to, she threw herself into his arms.
"Rhae" he muttered.
"Uncle Oberyn," she whispered.
He hugged her, he didn't understand anything, but he just hugged her and comforted her.
The girl calmed down a few minutes later and they talked, he told her that Oberyn was a great warrior, there was no better way to live than protecting his family, his wife nodded, she didn't know if Oberyn died, but a knife in the chest, not even Sansa could heal something like that.
[T/N: eh, maybe]
She walked over to the monitor.

Margaery looked at her brother.
"How was it?" he asked.
The girl noticed that he looked much better.
"I made a small alliance, well I don't think Robb Stark will have any problems with the commitment, if anything his eyes scanning me told me more than enough," she said with a smile.
Loras laughed out loud.
"Poor boy, but this is certain, we need the Starks, Marge," he told her.
"Do not fear, I will get Robb Stark, whether as a second wife, it does not matter, as long as father does not ruin it" she said.
Loras remained silent, he hoped his father didn't ruin this, he was very determined to make her queen.
"What if he does?" he asked.
"I hope grandma can control him," she told him.
"Can you play this game? " he asked.
" Of course, I will do everything in my power to charm Robb, even offering him some privileges before the wedding, while I am getting married," she said.
Loras raised an eyebrow.
"What? I'm not a virgin and Robb is an attractive man" she said with an amused smile.
[T/N: I would not be comfortable with my sisters telling me that.]

Jon looked at the wizards standing before him, all on their knees. The boy gave the order in the middle of the city, and the paladins executed them.
Jon felt a glow in his eyes and walked into the white room.
Sigh.
Qarth was his, the wizards sacrificed about five hundred men, his dragons killed about two hundred more.
He shook his head.
Oberyn's death bothered him too.
"What's happening in the West?" the boy muttered.
He saw that there was a new skill machine, next to the one that had been there since the first levels, he approached curiously.
He looked through the glass at the skills it offered.
{Sailor
Subordinate
General
Delivering Experience
Blue Medal+
Conversion into skill points}
The boy reread it and gasped, they were all excellent, far superior, and useful than those of the first machine, but they were very expensive, all the skills were above 3000 totems.
He had a total of 3005 and it cost him a lot to get there, to dominate entire cities to have this amount, but there was no doubt that among all the skills, according to what he read, one was indispensable, he needed it.
The boy sighed and touched the subordinate skill. And it disappeared, in its place appeared another skill, subordinate+, worth five thousand totems.
Jon shook his head and went to the computer. He typed in a FAQ.
{-How do you use the subordinate skill?
Someone must swear loyalty to the player and the option will be given to you.}
' Oh easier than I thought ' he thought.
He tapped the skill to inspect it.
{Subordinate:
Does not cost mana
You grant access to the game partially, to people who swear loyalty to you, this access to the game is partial, it does not have all the skills, and the subordinates get only half of the points they earn, so it will be more difficult for them to level up, but it has several magics in its favor, there is a limit of players, you can only have one subordinate every twenty levels.}
Jon nodded and looked at his player menu.
