Astartes of the Bear School Chapter 163

Chapter 163 162. The secret in the book

 “Your guards are truly impressive, Lord Stark.”

 Petyr Baelish had a frightened smile on his face.

He looked as if he was still regretting and worrying about what he had said in the king's tent.

 “Thanks to this swordsman, His Majesty is safe and sound.”

 The second half of the sentence was spoken as Lan En looked at him walking over. The young man nodded slightly in greeting.

　　After Eddard exchanged a few words with him with a cold face, Petyr wisely left the prime minister who was obviously in a bad mood.

Ed and Lan looked at each other's leaving back and lowered their voices to each other.

“He did it! I'm sure of it!”

“The king will certainly pursue this assassination, are you going to tell him?”

Ed was speechless for a moment and gritted his teeth bitterly.

If he could be honest with the king about the current problem, he might as well do it before the group competition.

 It is for the sake of the stability of the kingdom that the grumpy Robert cannot be known.

"Looking at the bright side, the fact that he used such explosive means undoubtedly means that he is anxious."

Lan En crossed his arms and tapped his fingers on the leather armor of his upper arms.

"In his eyes, you are no longer obsessed with tracing the cause of the old prime minister's death, but you are so anxious because of this matter? No matter how you think there is a big problem in it."

Eddard is in a mess right now. If he hadn't been concerned about the safety of his good brother Robert and the stability of the kingdom, he would have really wanted to step down as Prime Minister right now and return to Winterfell, his home in the north.

"This is too messy, Lannhu. Maybe I'm really not cut out to rule in a place like King's Landing. Maybe I'll leave as soon as this mess is over."

"If you can realize this, you are already better than many people, sir. Let's get back to the topic, have you gotten clues from others in the past few days?"

“The Grand Bachelor of the Royal Family gave me a book. It was a very boring book about the records of noble families and bloodlines. The former Prime Minister had been reading this book during his lifetime.”

 “Reading?” Lan En raised his eyebrows. "What a coincidence. I have a little confidence in my reading skills. Come back and show me."

The king was assassinated, which should have been a major event that shocked the Seven Kingdoms.

 But at this moment, the energetic king appeared on the high platform, using a loud voice to show off his safe and healthy body.

And said that the tournament will continue with the remaining archery competition.

 But everyone knows that the kingdom's intelligence system has already started taking action.

 Lan En and Eddard, after the prize money for the group competition had been set, took the **** and set off back to King's Landing City.

When we arrived at the Prime Minister's Tower in the Red Castle, a raven just flew towards the top of the tower, croaking.

Ed looked up at this scene with a frown.

 The raven is a means of communication in Westeros, similar to the homing pigeon.

But because they have been carefully cultivated in the school city, they are stronger and smarter than wild varieties, and they are better able to escape when encountering predators such as eagles in the wild.

 But because of this, this communication method has some high-end attributes and cannot be used for ordinary things.

Flying towards the Prime Minister's Tower, without even thinking, the person he was looking for was Eddard Stark.

"Lan, that book is on my desk. You can go over and read it yourself. I have to pick up a letter. Qiao Li has the key to the study."

The escorts present were all brought by Eddard from Winterfell, and there was nothing to be shy about.

Although the guard captain felt strange about Ed's trust in Lan En, he was not jealous or dissatisfied.

 He has a carefree temperament, and he also knows that a smart mind deserves to be taken seriously.

Ed went straight to the raven loft on the top of the Prime Minister's Tower. Jory Kelso shrugged at Lan En, "Let's go up too."

Walking all the way to the Prime Minister's Tower, he also passed by the cubicle where Aaliya was communicating.

Jolly Kelso took out the key from the pocket of his leather armor, then opened the study door and turned sideways to give up his seat to Lan En.

 “I'll stay outside.”

 “Affected.”

After Lan En entered, the first thing he saw was the hard-cover tome on the desk.

 Indeed, as Ed said, this is a book that is enough to make ordinary people resist because of its appearance. Lan En just pursed his lips, then walked over and opened the page.

 “Mentos, global record and logical analysis, ready to start.”

 “The order has been received and is being executed.”

 Lan En's eyes are like video recorders. Under his command, the biological brain in his brain begins to record all the information reflected on the retina and carry out logical analysis.

This mode of operation can be very tiring, specifically a headache. But if the goal was just one book, Lan En didn't think it was a big deal.

 The page turning sound of “clatter, clatter, clatter” sounded.

 Lan En's posture didn't look like he was reading a book, but like he was flipping through a book to pass the time.

 But there was no doubt that Mentos had written down all the information.

 "House Arryn. House Stark. House Tully. House Lannister. House Baratheon. Well, wait?"

 The dazed eyes suddenly became sharp.

Mentos captures the subject's spark of inspiration and connects inspiration with logic.

 A chain of clues was constructed in Lan En's mind.

“The Baratheon family's motto is 'caste tenacity'. They have married into many families, and the children they gave birth to are all Baratheons with black hair and black eyes.”

"But the iconic blond hair of the Lannister family is said to be the color stolen from the sun by the Lannister ancestors in the mythical era. So they intermarried with others, and many of the children they gave birth to were blond. But..."

In front of Lan En's eyes, Mentos summoned an image of Prince Joffrey. The blond hair was so bright that it was even dazzling in the sun.

Lan's hand turned back the pages of the book and stopped at the pages about the Baratheon family.

 His finger accurately clicked on several marriage cases.

“The Baratheon family has more than one marriage record with Lannister in history, but all the children in the record have black hair and black eyes!”

Gendry's appearance was placed opposite Joffrey by Mentos, and there was no trace of any paternal blood relationship between the two.

 “'Caste toughness'. No wonder!”

The world is convinced by the legend of House Lannister in the mythical age, believing that the blond hair stolen from the sun must be better than the black hair passed down by mortal blood.

 But the former prime minister repented while burying his neck in the soil, and began to trace the king's illegitimate child, as well as the appearance of the children born from the marriage between the two families in history.

No wonder the Lannisters are pressing so hard.

Co-author Are all the three crown princes today the result of extramarital affairs? !

 The queen did not fulfill even the slightest childbearing obligation for the king or the kingdom!

Robert would hang that woman alive if this came out!

Lan En smacked his lips. The absurd life of the nobles always refreshed his outlook on life.

The biggest problem has been solved, although there are still some minor problems, such as why the former prime minister suddenly doubted the legitimacy of the crown princes' blood and the role of Petyr Baelish in this matter.

 But there is no doubt that the main contradiction was discovered by Lan En.

This mess of things is almost over, and Lan feels that he can finally leave Aria with a stable environment.

 He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But before he could finish this breath, the sound of rapid footsteps from the top of the tower came straight towards the study.

The study door was pushed open with a "bang", and Ed held on to the door frame with a solemn and tangled expression, looking at Lan En.

Lan En was about to express his shocking conclusion, but Ed had already spoken first.

 “The war is about to begin, Lan!”

The young man's cat eyes blinked as if in a daze.

"Um?!!"
