章節 43: Dangerous journey to Stormlands with Robert.
I'm currently sitting on the deck of one of the five ships that are going to take us to Stormlands. It has been a month or so because we had to take a different way to get there. But it's better than getting captured by the Royal Navy. Though it's my first time traveling on a medieval wooden ship, At first it felt a little wired but I kept that a secret from everyone. Fortunately, we didn't encounter any danger until now, And hopefully, we won't.
And now with lots of free time in my hand, I started to practice the guitar every day, And today I will I'm playing one of my favorites *"The Pirates of The Caribbean Theme". I can tell that once again I have the attention of all the people on board. After I ended the music everyone wants me to play it again, But the Captain of this ship started to barking at the sailors to get back to their work.
Then Robert boomed from behind me, And I almost got a heart attack. He laughed at my reaction Then he started speaking in his loud voice.
"Gods Winters, If you were not in this ship I would have died out of boredom. And where the hell did you learn these many kinds of music? though I like this one the most ." after asking me that Robert sat next to me.
" it's my favorite as well. And this one is also one of the favorite music of Caribbean pirates ." I just simply told him.
" And where the seven hell is the Caribbean ? I never heard of it, though I admit those pirates are an interesting bunch. If they could make this kind of things to entertain themselves".said Robert.
"aye, they are interesting, though I don't know where this Caribbean is myself, But I do know one or two stories about them. Would you like to hear it?" I asked him.
" huh....! like to hear it he says... it's like I have better things to do in this fucking ship other than drinking? Just start the damn tale before I piss myself." then he looked at Claw who standing near me. " You there lad, your name...Claw was it? Oh, You are a knight now. Well, Ser Claw You remind me of my brother Stannis with that cold look of yours. hahaha... well, get us some wine lad" Claw bowed and left to fetch more wine.
Well, Robert is not wrong because Ser Claw Coldhand is quite cold indeed. And always carries a cold expression. But a devoted subordinate with a ruthless attitude.

Then I started my storytelling, Robert is very good at listening to what interesting to him. I told him about the notorious playboy Pirate Jack Sparrow. Robert laughed and my former squires all joined him. It must be very entertaining for them.
Robert always laughs loudly, But once that you get used to it then your ears won't hurt anymore. To tell the truth Robert Baratheon is a very charismatic guy with no sense of responsibility.
Though his hatred towards the Targaryen is quite annoying. But I know there is a good reason for it as well.
Because the guy lost his parents and watched them die in front of him because of the Targaryens. Though it's was a tragic accident but the crown never sent their condolences to him. Then the prince took his fiance whom he loves more than any other woman. Then the mad king murdered his soon-to-be good father and good brother in a horrible way. And also murdered one of his best friends Elbert Arryn. Then also demanded his and his best friends heads to Lord Arryn. So with this many facts, anyone would be pissed.
But what I observed past one year is that he's not a fool, not right now at least. Though a short-sited man with a Loudmouth and short-tempered mentality. But very prideful and loyal toward those who he considered friends and Allies.
Though I must say that he never wants to be the lord of the Stormlands. What I observed is that he hates duty and responsibilities or politics and flowery words. All he wants to travel the world with Ned Stark and smashing that hammer of his to some unlucky fellow. And fuck any whore that wants his cock and some coins. There are many times he expressed how envious he was of me that I had the freedom to travel to different places. Then he talked about his homeland and how he hated that place. Because he had to deal with the lordly stuff, And because of that reason he stayed in the Vale with his carefree life. It was quite interesting to know him.
Then we talked about the resources that were bringing with us, each of these trade galleys is full of war supplies . 2 ships are carrying food and drinks, another 2 are carrying weapons and armor that are war spoils from Gulltown. And the one that we're currently traveling is not loaded, Because I thought that at some point we might need to escape. So we kept this ship light for our travel. And These supplies are not that of a big deal on a greater scale, But it will give us a heads start.
Robert thanked me for my brilliant idea.
Well, it's not a brilliant idea because In war we need war supplies, And gathering them takes time, And the time we could use productively. Though a city is a major place to buy it, But in the Stormlands, they don't have any City. And also they don't have any access to get that from other countries as well. Though it's was a risky move on my part but ultimately it's worth it.
Then I also pointed out to Robert that how dangerous the situation we're currently going to be in the Stormland. Because we will be surrounded by enemies on all sides. And if any of the kingdoms reacted faster than us then we're doomed.
He listened to my words but did not take them seriously and laughed. Then he told me that other kingdoms will eventually join their cause to overthrow the Targaryen. Though I was astonished by his confidence and a bit confused. So I liked to give him some future knowledge but ultimately decided to against it.
So at that moment, I stopped giving him my advice about the involvement of other kingdoms. Because I believe that he won't listen to anything I say in this situation right now. These Bratheons are known to be muscle headed.
So I changed the topic to woman's which the best part. And Robert started to boast about a girl that he recently fucked. Then he started to show me with his hands that her tits were so huge that he can bury his face. I laughed because of how comedic it sounds.
So I also told him about my exploit in Vale as well. I told him about lady Anya, then the mountain girl Mira. And lastly about the three maids that I fucked. I also told him that I have few others in the kingslanding as well.
Robert Bratheon was shocked by the revelation and with a serious face, he asked me " Gods Winters, tell me something truthfully. Did my father was unfaithful to my mother in nine penny wars and spends some night your mother ?"
what ? is he thinking ? " what are you saying, man? Noooo were not related. And having love for fucking doesn't make us related. And seriously! You and I are totally different in both personality and looks ." I told him and he did give me a nod.
Then he put a hand on my solder and dragged me to have another sparring match."Well, Alan what you said is true, but you and I have something so common that even my own brother doesn't have ."
Well, he's not wrong in that statement.
So another long day ended, we retired to our quarters. I jumped at the bed and my thoughts drifted to the Vale, To The women's I spent my passionate nights. Well, unlike Robert I do take responsibility quite seriously, sometimes. Then I thought about my last days of Gulltown.
Well, when I proposed the idea to Lord Arryn about the war supplies. He approved so we needed to reschedule for our departure from the Vale. And with Free time I bought a building in the Sentral district of Gulltown. Made it a big restaurant from the fundings I took from Morton, though I kept my love affairs a secret.
He was very happy that I asked him for gold. Well, I it's not very surprising because of how much benefits he gained from me.
Thus a new base of operation is formed in a major City. And I left the charge of that restaurant to The three of them and their family. The girls have a good amount of experience with cooking. So I believe that it will thrive in their capable hands. I'll be needing them in the future because when I become a Lord I will be needing as many as trusted and capable people.
Then I fall asleep But waked up again because I felt the ship started to bounce violently, So hurriedly left my cabin. Then I asked the captain about the situation and he informed me that we have entered Stormland near the Tarth.
