Illyrio is a businessman. He is far less ideal and ambitious than "Spider" Varys. He took in the Targaryen brother and sister out of profit considerations.
In the original work, a period of his psychological activities was described.
Because of Daenerys's beauty, he wanted to kill Viserys and then monopolize her. Unfortunately, Daenerys was too timid and shy, and he soon lost interest.
Facing these two "tool men" of House Targaryen, Illyrio has never looked at them directly. He only showed hypocrisy on the surface, and naturally it is impossible to swear allegiance to them.
Of course Gary knows this. He does not trust and does not need Illyrio's allegiance. There are other reasons why Illyrio is "loyal" now.
Illyrio knows how to assess the situation very well. He immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "I am willing to serve His Highness!"
As for whether this loyalty is true or false, the two people present knew it very well.
Gary helped Illyrio and said in a false voice, "Okay! With the help of the governor, my chance of taking back Iron Throne is even greater."
Illyrio also looked moved when he met the Master, "Your Highness will definitely be able to take back Iron Throne!"
The way the two acted against each other made even the simple Tysha believe it.
Gary said in a deep voice, "Please ask the governor to keep my identity and the matter of the dragon a secret. If word spreads to the west, Robert is likely to attack immediately."
Illyrio answered fluently, "I will keep your highness's identity secret. But everyone in the city has seen this dragon thing, and it can't be hidden if you want. I will spread false news and say it is a dragon from the wild. Please don't worry, your highness."
Gary nodded slightly in agreement. He wrapped three Dragon Egg in sheets, tied them into a bundle, and carried them on his back.
It seems that we need to consult Krysalis about hatching eggs. Or maybe kidnap Daenerys too? After all, in the episode "Game of Thrones", she hatched the three Dragon Eggs.
Forget it, be prepared, Daenerys will be kidnapped!
Now that he had made up his mind, he asked, "Governor, please take me to meet those two people. After all, they are my tribesmen."
"Okay, no problem. Your Highness, please come this way."
Illyrio led Gary out of the cellar and headed to the single-family stone building on the other side of the garden. Along the way, Illyrio behaved respectfully and calmly, changing his previous fear and uneasiness.
Approaching the door, Illyrio stopped and said, "Your Highness, go in by yourself? The dragon has made a lot of noise in the city. I guess the other governors are still waiting for me to discuss countermeasures. Should I go first?"
"Go ahead, Pentos is our base camp from now on, there must be no chaos."
Gary patted Illyrio on the shoulder and let him go.
Looking at Illyrio's back, Gary said slowly, "Illyrio is a smart man. His courtyard has been breached by us. He must also be able to guess the situation of other governors."
Tysha pondered for a while and understood the meaning of Gary's words, "The angel said that the fat man deceived us? He wanted to run away?"
Gary smiled disdainfully and said, "He is reluctant to part with the family fortune he has worked hard for many years and will not run away. I guess he should have tipped off an old friend. However, this is exactly what I need him to do, so let him go."
Compared with the unreliable Illyrio, Varys, who has lofty ideals, is the one Gary really wants to win over.
Although this old eunuch once cheated him, Varys is one of the very few positive characters in "Game of Thrones".
Varys comes from a grassroots background, knows the sufferings of the people, and wants to create a better world where people will not suffer.
He has been looking for a wise master worthy of his assistance, but it is obvious that Robert is not it, and neither is Viserys.
Gary knows that "Spider" Varys will always be loyal to the common people, but will not be truly loyal to any king.
Gary admires him, but doesn't like him.
He only wanted to win over Varys because he had a place in Small Council and could help him find out first-hand information about Robert.
Gary looked away, turned around and walked up the front steps, stepping into the stone building.
Before entering the door, he deliberately covered Dark Sister with his cloak.
The maids at the door of the stone building saw that the two of them were brought here by Governor Illyrio, and they did not dare to stop them, so they all gave way obediently.
Gary As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard a roar.
"Why? Why are there still dragons alive? Why don't they come to me? Well? Tell me! Is there anyone else who is more qualified to own it than me?"
Someone was questioning loudly, accompanied by the muffled sound of being slapped on the body and the girl's cry of pain.
These sounds aroused Tysha's bad memories, and she wanted to rush in with an angry look on her face to rescue the beaten girl.
Gary stretched out his hand to stop her, signaling her not to act rashly.
Darling, have you encountered the legendary "Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon"?
Daenerys·Targaryen, as the heroine of "Game of Thrones", her childhood was not very beautiful. It can be described as "miserable".
Her mother passed away after giving birth to her. It can be said that she was raised by her second brother Viserys·Targaryen.
Oh, by the way, their eldest brother is Prince Rhaegar. If we count seniority, they are still the uncle and aunt of Gary (Snow).
After Daenerys and Viserys went into exile, Essos grew up eating food from hundreds of families and was looked down upon since childhood. This also made Viserys's character distorted, and Daenerys became his punching bag.
Viserys claims to be the last true dragon, so the "wrath of the sleeping dragon" is the reason to beat Daenerys severely.
As for why he insisted on raising his sister even when he couldn't protect himself.
It's not because of family ties, but because House Targaryen is gifted in appearance, with handsome men and beautiful women. He can use the grown-up Daenerys to get married and exchange for the army.
In fact, in the episode "Game of Thrones", he did the same thing. He teamed up with Illyrio and married Daenerys to Dothraki Khal, Drogo who were friends with Pentos.
"Pa bang bang..."
Gary applauded and walked closer to the room, "Please forgive me for coming uninvited. I didn't disturb your enjoyment, right?"
Viserys looks to be in his early twenties. If he were not in a ferocious-looking state now, he should be able to capture the hearts of many women.
Well, he is a handsome guy. The only one who can compete with Viserys in appearance is the Knight of Flowers, right?
"Who are you? Guest of Illyrio? This is a private space, please get out!"
Viserys turned around and saw Gary breaking into the room and drove them away angrily.
Daenerys on the ground barely covered his body with torn clothes, but it still couldn't block the leaking sunshine and the bruises and scars all over his body.
Viserys is very skilled in beating people. He knows that his sister's face is important, so he specifically beats the parts that are covered by clothes.
For example, the abdomen, lower back, and upper thighs.
When Daenerys saw a stranger entering the room, she timidly hid behind Viserys. Although her second brother often beat her, he was still her only trustworthy relative.
Gary couldn't help but frown when he saw this.
Of course he could kill Viserys directly and take away Daenerys by force. But in that case, he would become Daenerys's enemy.
If she doesn't cooperate in hatching the eggs in the future and only wants to seek revenge on Gary, it will be troublesome.
If she could be as disheartened by Viserys as in the original work and no longer rely on him, maybe that would be what Gary wants to see.
Gary thought for a moment, and the plan came to mind. He smiled kindly and said, "Your Highness, do you know who I am? I have taken advantage of the dragon to attack the city and controlled the entire Pentos. Now, I am the only king of Pentos!"
Viserys finally realized that this person was not Illyrio's guest, but the bandit who took advantage of the chaos to capture Pentos!
He also has a lot of experience. When he saw that Gary had no ill intentions, he knew that the other party wanted to discuss something, "What do you want to do?"
Gary stared at Daenerys behind Viserys and said with a smile, "I want to make a deal with His Highness and give this Pentos to you. With Pentos as the foundation, Your Highness will have a source of income. With money, are you afraid that there will be no army to restore the country?"
This is Essos, and mercenary legions of all sizes are everywhere.
With the financial resources of Pentos, we can hire at least 10,000 people.
Of course Illyrio cannot do this. After all, he is co-governing Pentos with other governors and has no right to use other governors' gold.
But Gary is different. He asked Gabo to kill those governors, and all the gold will be his alone.
He can give it to whomever he wants now!
Viserys was elated and suddenly dreamed, "You want to be loyal to me?"
"Your Highness is joking, I just said, this is a deal." Gary said with a evil smile.
Viserys Calm down, "What do you want... do you like her?"
He immediately realized that he had nothing but a charming sister who was of some value.
"What? Does Your Highness think that Pentos is no match for Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Gary asked impatiently.
Viserys is not a fool. His sister is his only hope for returning to the country, so of course he is not willing to take action easily. He chose to raise the price. "Of course one Pentos is not enough. If you can help me catch the giant dragon outside, I will marry my sister to you."
"Your Highness is so insincere. How can a giant dragon be an existence that humans can fight against? Your Highness is asking me to die? Humph, if I kill you now, I can still snatch away the Princess!"
Gary has a fierce look in his eyes and is about to draw his sword!
Viserys panicked, "Slow down! I agree to your conditions!"
Gary observed Daenerys's reaction and saw that she was slightly resistant but did not dare to speak. He decided to add fuel to the fire, "My conditions have changed! I will not marry your sister! She can only be a maid..."
He suddenly remembered Viserys's famous line in the TV series, so he copied it and blurted out. "I will not only let thousands of my Mercenary brothers take turns to fuck her. I will also let the thousands of horses under their crotches fuck her too!"
Daenerys looked frightened and kept shaking Viserys's hand.
Viserys was also slightly angry, but he quickly suppressed it. "Are you doing this to deliberately humiliate House Targaryen?"
Gary flicked the dust from his fingernails contemptuously, "No, I am just stating to Your Highness how I will treat... my new maid."
He looked at the frightened Daenerys and the hesitant Viserys, and said, "Your Highnesses, please think about it slowly. I will give you one night. If there is no reply tomorrow, I will treat it as Your Highnesses have rejected my proposal."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left the stone room.
