Start with the Lord of the Rings

Winterfell Castle.

Inside the banquet hall.

As time passed slowly.

The originally noisy and noisy hall, the atmosphere became more and more lively.

corner of the hall.

The Duke of Winterfell, Eddard Stark, the host, was leaning in a corner where no one was paying attention, quietly watching the noisy and enthusiastic hall.

"After so many years, you still haven't been able to adapt to this kind of banquet."

Bunyan Stark, who was wearing a black robe and was a little taller than Eddard Stark, looked at his brother next to him and smiled.

"I can't get used to it for the rest of my life."

Eddard Stark shook his head.

He really didn't like this kind of noisy banquet.

But as the guardian of the North, the Duke of Winterfell, how could such a banquet be rare for him.

That is, under normal circumstances, he is trying his best to avoid attending banquets.

But he couldn't be absent from today's reception for the king and queen.

That is, he just started drinking a glass of wine with His Majesty the King and the Queen at the beginning.

The rest of the entertainment was left to wife Caitlin and son Robb.

He stayed in the hall and felt such a noisy scene and still felt a little at a loss.

However, his status was high enough, and he did not dare to ask him for a drink without opening his eyes.

"By the way, do you know the young soldier I executed?"

At this moment, Eddard Stark thought of something, turned to look at his younger brother and asked.

Hearing his brother ask, Bunyan Stark immediately knew what he was asking, and nodded, "I know him."

"He's an ordinary warrior."

"He's no coward though, Ed. I know him better than you do."

Bunyan Stark said softly.

Of course he knew about the desertion of the Night's Watch warrior.

"But, you listen to those ridiculous things he says."

"He said that his companion was actually killed by the White Walkers."

"The White Walkers have been gone for thousands of years"

Eddard Stark shook his head.

Bunyan Stark interrupted: "But those two warriors are indeed missing."

Eddard Stark: "Maybe it was attacked by wildlings."

Bunyan Stark: "Maybe"

"The direwolf is extremely rare to the south of the Great Wall, rumors of the White Walkers reappearing, and my brother is about to become Prime Minister."

"Winter is coming."

Bunyan Stark sighed.

"Yes, winter is coming"

Eddard Stark replied softly, looking at the king who was holding the woman in the center of the hall with deep eyes.

"By the way, Ed, what do you think about Jon?"

Bunyan Stark looked at his brother again and said, "He has grown up."

Eddard Stark fell silent when he heard his brother mention Jon Snow.

At this time, in this world, he also knew the true identity of Jon Snow.

He didn't tell anyone, not even his wife, Caitlin Tully, who shared the same bed for decades, he didn't want to tell her.

Just to protect the kid Jon.

Eddard Stark was silent for a while, then looked at his brother: "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Seeing his brother's silence, Bunyan Stark didn't think he had any other thoughts.

Bastard.

Even the Duke of Winterfell, the illegitimate son of the Governor of the North.

Jon's kid has suffered too much over the years.

Just today, to welcome His Majesty the King's feast, most people in the entire Winterfell were invited, but he was excluded.

When he came back to see Jon, he could already feel Jon's extremely aggrieved and depressed mind.

He grew up watching Jon and likes Jon's character.

Now that child is begging for himself.

He couldn't watch it anymore.

"Jon just told me he wanted to go to the Wall"

Looking at his brother, Bunyan Stark spoke softly.

The voice fell.

Eddard Stark was silent again.

Jon said to go to the Great Wall.

That must have been intended to be the Night's Watch.

Eddard Stark thought of the Night's Watch Oath almost instantly.

"The long night is coming, I will watch from now on until I die."

"I will not marry a wife, hold no land, and have no children"

This time, Eddard Stark was silent for a long, long time

"Morgan, don't you get bored just sitting?"

"At a banquet, you should have a good drink"

"Come on, cheers."

Next to him, Captain Thomson of the Nei Castle Gate Guard greeted Morgan, who had just put down his glass.

"Come"

With his current amount of alcohol, he is not afraid of anyone.

Once again, I drank a large glass of wheat beer.

Morgan put down his glass and looked at the two long tables at the top again.

Looking at the long table not far away.

Looking at Robb Stark, the eldest son of Winterfell, as well as sisters Sansa Stark and Arya Stark, and Prince Joffrey Baratheon from King's Landing, Jaime Lannister, Kingsguard and Queen's younger brother.

Morgan was wondering if he should do something to show his presence a little.

But soon, he pressed the idea again.

This is not in Middle-earth.

In this world, apart from being a marksman who has not yet spread out of Winterfell, he has not made any other achievements and fame.

In this strict world, rush forward.

It doesn't do any good other than give the impression of being rude and rude.

Just when Duchess Caitlin Tully and Queen Cersei Lannister looked over.

He raised his glass quickly, which must have left a certain impression on the queen.

"It's too late."

Thinking of this, Morgan's heart immediately calmed down.

at this time.

Morgan suddenly found that the host, Ed Stark, had left the corner of the hall at some point and was walking towards him.

at the same time.

On the long table not far away, Kingsguard Jaime Lannister, who was drinking alone, also suddenly stood up.

He was walking towards the road beside him.

No surprises.

Eddard Stark and Jaime Lannister met head-on as they walked to the crowded road behind Morgan.

Looking at the figure standing in front of him.

Eddard Stark just glanced at the other party with a dull expression, and was about to pass by.

It's just his move.

In front of him, James Lannister immediately followed suit.

Where Eddard Stark goes, Jaime Lannister also goes.

He seemed to realize that the guy in front of him was doing it on purpose.

Eddard Stark said calmly: "Let me."

James Lannister, who came prepared, immediately looked at Eddard Stark and said, "I heard you are going to King's Landing?"

"is this real?"

"Then we can be neighbors."

Hearing that the other party seemed a little excited, Eddard Stark glanced at Jaime Lannister in front of him again, and said calmly: "Your news is correct, the king really meant it."

The voice fell.

Jaime Lannister smiled and said immediately, "That's great."

"Such a good thing, but it needs to be celebrated."

"If you don't mind, let's hold a martial arts contest."

"You can do it here, you can do it in King's Landing"

"How about congratulating you on your new appointment?"

"It's just the two of us, but I've wanted to really compete with you for a long time."

James Lannister looked at the Duke of Winterfell and said quickly.

Hear what the other person has to say.

Only then did Eddard Stark seriously look at the Lannister-born Kingsguard, but he never liked him.

As a member of the elite legendary guard "Kingsguard" created to protect the royal bloodline only loyal to the king.

However, he betrayed his oath and killed Jaime Lannister of Aerys II Targaryen II, the king he was loyal to, by sneak attack from behind.

This is in view of Eddard Stark, who attaches great importance to honor and chivalry.

Jaime Lannister, who bears such a bad name as "Kingslayer", cannot be forgiven.

This is why Eddard Stark has always hated the queen's younger brother.

As for Jaime Lannister, who has always been against Eddard Stark, Duke of Winterfell, and hated him very much.

He had killed the Mad King who tortured Eddard Stark's father and brother.

Eddard Stark not only didn't thank him, he also wanted to revenge him for being black.

How could this allow Jaime Lannister to endure.

This is also the reason why Jaime Lannister has always hated Eddard Stark and has been targeting him.

"I won't participate in the tournament."

Looking at Eddard the King Killer in front of him, he shook his head with a chuckle.

"why?"

James Lannister immediately asked, and provocatively said: "Do you think you are too old?"

"Afraid of losing to me?"

Eddard Stark continued to shake his head and said, "I don't participate in the tournament, it's just that I don't want to expose my strength when I'm actually fighting against others."

Seeing Eddard Stark with a calm face, Jaime Lannister became more and more unhappy.

"That's a good thing to say."

"However, don't you think it's because you are too old and too old to be self-confident?"

Looking at the Duke of Winterfell in front of him, Jaime Lannister provoked himself, and looked at the frank person in front of him and sneered word by word: "You are still worried, you are afraid that you will lose to me."

The voice fell.

Sitting on the side, Morgan, who had been eavesdropping, finally couldn't help standing up, looked at the two people in the confrontation and said, "Lord Stark"

"Morgan is willing to fight for your lord, if you agree."

The sudden sound made the faces of the two facing each other change.

It's just that when Ed Stark heard Morgan's voice, he remembered the identity of Morgan's marksman and the powerful swordsmanship that had abused all the warrior leaders of Winterfell, and his face immediately laughed.

On the other hand, Jaime Lannis's expression changed, and the expression on his handsome face turned gloomy.

Morgan stepped forward at this time and came to the two of them.

Eddard Stark turned his head and smiled at Morgan.

Immediately looking at Jaime Lannister, he continued with a smile: "I'd like to introduce you, Morgan, our best swordsman in Winterfell, and a marksman."

"If you don't mind, we can indeed hold a tournament."

"You can do it here, you can do it in King's Landing."

Seeing the "King Killer" in front of him look ugly, Eddard Stark smiled even more happily, and continued: "Of course, if you are afraid of losing, you can find someone else to replace it."

"I don't mind"

Eddard Stark looked at Jaime Lannister in front of him with incomparable relief and smiled.

Use the other party's words to fight back against the other party, mocking the other party.

It feels so good.

Looking at Eddard Stark's increasingly annoying face.

Jaime Lannister will not be easily fooled.

"Marksman, Swordsman"

Thinking of Eddard Stark's words, he turned his head and glanced at the strange man beside him who answered.

He looks handsome and has a cold temperament.

It doesn't seem to be anything special.

But with what he knew about Eddard Stark.

Although this old guy is annoying, he is definitely not the kind of bravado.

The strength of the strange man in front of him should not be bad.

He was the Kingsguard, the Kingslayer, and the Lannister Lion.

Although it has a bad reputation now.

But it is by no means comparable to this unknown and unknown man in front of him.

He never thought of being a stepping stone for others, especially when the other party was under the command of Eddard Stark, whom he hated the most.

"This is a test between me and you, Lord Stark."

"If someone else is on the field, then there is no point in competing."

Jaime Lannister looked at the Duke of Winterfell again and said.

"Are you Lord James Lannister?"

At this moment, Morgan's voice sounded again.

From looking at Eddard Stark's face, he quickly shifted to the tall and handsome blond handsome man in front of him.

"it's me."

Jaime Lannister nodded expressionlessly.

Morgan continued: "I know your Excellency wants to challenge Lord Stark."

"But Lord Stark's identity is not ordinary."

"Look at this, as Lord Stark's first competitor, as long as I defeat me, I can challenge Lord Stark."

"The same rules, your Excellency can also bring a person to join the war."

"Of course, I can challenge Lord Stark after defeating me. If I defeat your companion, I can challenge you as well."

"Look at this kind of competition."

Morgan watched James Lannister finish speaking in one breath, and then looked at Eddard Stark who didn't say hello in advance.

I saw that the other party was looking at the deflated Jaime Lannister with a smile on his face.

"I also think Morgan's approach is good."

Looking at Jaime Lannister who hesitated to speak, Eddard Stark immediately answered.

He didn't think about participating in the tournament.

But I don't blame Morgan for being so talkative.

Maybe Morgan had other thoughts, but he meant to help himself.

Eddard Stark is very clear about this.

But Morgan dared to say such words, which also showed that Morgan was very confident in his own strength.

That being the case.

How could he not dare to compete with the Lannisters once with Morgan.

Although the nickname "Magic Mountain", Gregor Clegane, who is loyal to the Lannister family, is indeed very strong.

But he had already seen Morgan's powerful strength.

Besides, he himself is there.

"I'll think about it."

Hearing Eddard Stark's words, Jaime Lannister glanced at the two of them, then stepped aside and walked forward.

"Sorry Lord Stark, I'm a little impulsive."

As soon as Jaime Lannister left, Morgan immediately apologized to Eddard Stark.

"No, Morgan, you did nothing wrong"

Eddard Stark looked at Morgan with a smile and shook his head, and continued: "The Stark family is never afraid of things."

"But if you say so, the possibility that they agree to hold a martial arts conference is not small."

"If that's the case, you need to remember someone who is probably your biggest opponent."

Morgan asked, "Who?"

Eddard Stark: "Gregor Clegane, nicknamed "The Magic Mountain."
