Edmure and others almost emptied Luanhe City of money and food. They loaded more than ten carriages and lined up in a long convoy outside the city.

Since there were not enough grooms, Edmure let every child play this role.

Their next destination is Seaguard, a dozen leagues south of Luanhe City, where is the castle of House Mallister.

Among the four, Patrek Mallister is the heir to this castle. His father, Jason Mallister, is now the owner of Seaguard Castle.

Seaguard is very close to Luanhe City. Even if the convoy moves slowly, it can be reached within five days.

Inside Luanhe City.

Gary released Magic from Wights, and thousands of Wights fell to the ground in pieces like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, turning back into ordinary corpses.

"Brave Winterfell soldiers, please forgive me for disturbing your sleep with Magic. Your mission has been completed, and I sincerely hope you can rest in peace. Next, leave Stark to me to protect you."

He had lived in Winterfell for five years, and many of these dead soldiers were familiar faces. He felt very uncomfortable and stood there in silence for a long time.

Those House Frey soldiers had long been moved out of Luanhe City by Wights soldiers. On the plain outside the city wall, a spear was stuck on the ground with a corpse, forming a different kind of scenery.

There are only the remains of House Stark soldiers in the city at this time. Gary wants to use this ancient city to make a tomb for Robb and these Winterfell soldiers.

He and Daenerys slowly walked out of the city gate, "Dragonfire!"

Drogon stepped on the city wall and flew into the sky, spraying Dragonfire downwards, igniting the entire Luanhe City.

While Drogon was spitting fire, Gary came to the convoy outside the city and found Edmure: "You guys go back south to your castle, gather the army, and be sure to hold off Lannister's army for me. I'm going to the north to take back Winterfell, and I will come to support you after I resolve the civil strife in the North."

Edmure was a little confused, "Why did your Majesty burn Magic's army? How can you take back Winterfell without an army?"

"That is an evil Magic, a blasphemy against the dead. I used it this time just to give the Winterfell soldiers a chance to avenge themselves. As for taking back Winterfell, it is not their job."

Gary glanced at the burning Luanhe City and said sadly.

Edmure still felt something was wrong, "Your Majesty, return with me Riverrun and let me gather an army for you..."

"No need!"

Gary refused, "You have to defend the army from the south for me. Now that Lannister has formed an alliance with Tyrell, the situation is not optimistic. You need the army more than I do."

Edmure just has a short-sighted strategic vision, but still knows the priorities. "I will hold the line of defense for Your Majesty, resist Lannister's army heading north, and wait for Your Majesty's reinforcements."

Gary nodded and prepared to leave.

At this time, Jon·Umber came over with two horses. "Your Majesty, I will go north with you. My castle is north of Winterfell, at Last Hearth on the bank of the Mo River."

Gary suddenly realized that the other three people were the nobles of Riverlands, and this Jon·Umber was the noble of the North.

He couldn't help but feel good about it, "Well, it just so happens that you can introduce to me the detailed information about the the North princes."

Drogon followed Gary's order and burned all corners of Luanhe City. After completing its mission, it hovered over Gary, trying to figure out the next direction of travel.

Gary and Daenerys got on their horses, while Jon·Umber got on a carriage loaded with grain.

They said goodbye to Edmure, and the two groups set off at the same time, one heading south and the other heading north.

Kingsroad.

After traveling for several days, the Gary trio found a farmer's hut and wanted to stay here.

At first, they knocked on the door for a long time, but the wooden door of the hut never opened.

Just when they thought the hut had been abandoned, they were about to break in the door.

The wooden door suddenly opened, and a little girl about seven or eight years old timidly poked her head out.

The moment she saw Gary and Jon·Umber, she hurriedly tried to close the wooden door again.

Jon·Umber immediately supported the wooden door with his hands, "Little girl, we are not bad people, don't be afraid."

When the little girl saw that she could not close the wooden door, she ran away in fear.

Jon·Umber also pushed open the wooden door and walked into the hut first to explore the way for Gary.

Gary and Daenerys were behind him and also walked into the house.

In the room inside the hut, a frail middle-aged man was sleeping on the bed. He had a new wound on his head. Because the cloth bandaging the wound was not clean, there seemed to be some signs of infection.

The little girl who had just opened the door was lying beside the bed, shrinking timidly into the man's arms.

"Are you also robbers? We have nothing worth grabbing for you." The man glanced at Jon·Umber, who was as strong as an ox, and asked weakly.

Gary looked around and found no signs of a fight in the house. "Were you robbed? It seems you were lucky. Those people only robbed you of your money, leaving behind your life... and your daughter."

The man shed tears of regret, "They took away our food and money. My daughter and I are destined not to survive this winter."

Gary smiled and said, "I have food, and I can share some of it with you. However, everything has a price."

The man held his child and said, "I won't sell my daughter, so you can leave."

Gary said with a black face, "I am not a human trafficker. The price you need to pay is to abandon Seven and convert to another supreme god. My food is limited and needs to be reserved for people who are willing to serve the supreme god."

The man doesn't believe it, he has never heard of Westeros or any other supreme god. But he and his daughter have been hungry for a whole day, if they really have food...

Daenerys took off her hood, walked to the bed, took out a piece of bread and handed it to the hungry little girl. "Eat it, and may the Supreme God bless you to survive this war safely."

She showed a kind and amiable smile, coupled with her stunning appearance, she was like a saint, and the man and the little girl quickly fell in love with her.

The little girl carefully took the bread from her hand and handed it to her father.

"There is also bread, you can eat it too."

Daenerys Seeing this, he took out another piece of bread and handed it to the little girl, and asked kindly, "What's your name?"

The little girl became more courageous. She took the bread and politely replied, "Sally."

Then, she held the bread and began to devour it.

Gary looked at the father and daughter and said calmly, "Your wound has been infected. Even if you have enough food, you will not survive this winter. After you die, will your daughter still survive?"

The man didn't want to die, let alone his daughter. "Are you a doctor? If you can heal my injury, for the sake of my daughter, I am willing to convert to your supreme god."

Gary also came to the bed. He stretched his left hand out of his cloak. The strange shape startled the man and the little girl.

Even Jon·Umber saw Gary's left arm for the first time, but he knew that Gary was the famous ice Wizard, so he didn't care.

Gary said slowly, "I am not a doctor, nor do I have any medical skills. Magic is what I am good at. I can use the power of the Supreme God to heal your wounds with Magic."

"Magic? Well, I've never seen the real Magic. You can try it."

The man smiled bitterly, feeling more and more that Gary was a liar.

Gary tapped the man's forehead with his left hand, "The Supreme God will fulfill your wish, but you also need to remember your oath. God cannot be deceived, otherwise there will be punishment."

The man only felt a warmth at the wound on his forehead, and the pain quickly disappeared. He removed the cloth on his head and was surprised to find that the wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Daenerys protected his chest with devout hands, "Praise the Supreme God for his benevolence in saving the world. In the holy name of the Lord, Gary."

The man was dazed for a few seconds, and then he followed suit, "Thank you to the Supreme God for your salvation. I am willing to serve this powerful god. I hope that the god can bless Sally... In the holy name of the Lord, Gary."

Jon·Umber was also so shocked that his beard trembled, "Oh my god, what a miracle... In the holy name of the Lord, Gary."

The man got out of bed and put on his shoes, lowered his head and expressed his gratitude to Gary and others, "Thank you to the adults for saving my life. I will always remember the lesson learned yesterday. The good and evil of people have nothing to do with their appearance. Some little girls who look very kind are actually robbers who plunder everywhere."

A little girl stole all your money and food? Come on, you don't look so weak, do you?

The man noticed Gary's suspicious eyes and immediately explained, "There is a burly disfigured man next to that little girl. He is the real criminal who stole the money and food."

Disfigured man?"The Hound"Sandor·Clegane? Isn't the little girl acting with him Arya?

"Have you ever seen a man with half his face disfigured? He robbed you yesterday?"
