Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon.

Chapter 208 The Last Flight

When Prince Aegon finally regained consciousness, he had been pulled to the open space in the dragon's lair. Huohuo lowered his head and rubbed his companion, then pulled back his tentacles.

"Your Majesty." Prince Aegon immediately recognized who was coming to save him. Samantha was still wearing her banquet gown, and she didn't even have time to lower the ladder on the dragon saddle before she hurriedly called for the fire to save Prince Aegon.

"Thank you. Sorry, I didn't make it."

"It's okay." Samantha looked up at Prince Aegon, who was much taller than her, and sighed. "Viserys won't blame you. Vermax is used to being wild. He has long been unaccustomed to being controlled. Viserys is just too anxious."

Prince Aegon stared blankly at the dragon flame of Vermax extinguishing in the air. He knew that the biggest purpose of his trip had failed.

"Aegon." Samantha walked up to Prince Aegon, whose clothes were charred, and said softly, "Perhaps, after you go back, you can try Syrax. He is gentle and doesn't like to move, so he may be easier to tame."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Prince Aegon seemed to have come back to his senses and said dejectedly. He looked at Samantha's expression and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I know my limits."

He limped towards the Silver Guard's station. Two Silver Guards holding long-handled tridents came up to him and took the prince to change his clothes.

It was not until this time that Viserys, who had arrived at the dragon pit almost at the same time as Samantha, walked out of Igarath's lair. He said with a look of disappointment: "Aegon. Alas."

"You are too impatient, Viserys." Samantha said bluntly: "Vormax has lived in Dragon's Nest for so many years, I believe you can realize the power of my father and the specialness of this dragon's nest." She is the queen of the Targaryen family, and at this time, it is necessary for her to explain these issues.

"We have to be impatient." Viserys sighed and said, "Your Majesty, there are too few dragon riders in the Targaryen family. We need dragon riders who can ride adult dragons, not children with only young dragons."

"There is no one else here. My father is not here, my brother is not here, my irritable brother is not here, and Aegon is not here either." Samantha looked at Viserys and said calmly, "Viserys, do you really not trust my family?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Huohuo suddenly raised its head. Its big eyes rolled around, revealing a ferocious light. The tentacles on its body exploded instantly and flew wildly in the open space.

"Be quiet, Huo Huo." Samantha said in a low voice. Huo Huo turned his big eyes to his partner with a sense of grievance, and his tentacles were put back on the delicate skin without visible scales. "Be good." Samantha gently stroked Huo Huo.

"Your Majesty, I did not mean that." Viserys said sincerely. He knew very well that he was too anxious this time and did not even have enough alternatives - he should wait until Aemon recovered before taming the dragon, instead of asking the Varese family to fulfill their promise when the king and queen were here.

After all, the purpose of this family dinner is Queen Samantha's visit to her relatives and the establishment of marriage contracts for the next generation of the two families, not dragon training.

At the banquet just now, King Aegon proposed a marriage between the two families. After discussion, Princess Elona and Dragonzel's youngest son, Rhaegon Vareses, were engaged. When Princess Elona turns thirteen, she will come to Dragon's Nest as an adopted daughter and wait for the marriage to be completed.

King Aegon also hoped to arrange a marriage between Daenerys and Daeron and Jeyne's future heirs, but because the children were far from being born, he had to give up.

Viserys knew very well that the fact that Samantha took the initiative to bring up this topic with him showed that she had made clear her position - she was first the queen of the Targaryen family, and then the daughter of the Vareses family. If she still stood on the side of the Vareses family, she would not make her thoughts clear, but would allow herself to touch the bottom line of the Vareses step by step, and eventually fall into the unfathomable seven levels of hell.

The Vareses family is now the real "uncrowned king". They have ten dragon riders and ten adult dragons that can fight. The Targaryen family.
There are still only three of them, and the most powerful one is the dragon from the Varese family.

"I know what you're thinking, Viserys." Samantha said slowly, "Father has little interest in worldly power, and my brother is steady and law-abiding. They will not challenge the existing order. If we do things within the rules, no one can say anything. Don't be impatient, take your time."

She whispered in a voice that only she could hear. Generations of blood blended together, and sooner or later, the Targaryens and the Vareses would merge into one, and there would be no difference between you and me.

By that time, it won’t matter who sits on the Iron Throne, as long as the blood of the two families is still flowing in his veins.

"I see."

Viserys naturally understood this.

“Peace and stability are what the kingdom needs most.” Samantha whispered, “People don’t want war anymore.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a bell was heard.

Samantha's eyes changed, and she pulled down the ladder without hesitation. She lay on the dragon saddle regardless of the long skirt she was still wearing. "Light a fire and go to the top of the tower."

Viserys was a little stunned. Just when he came to his senses, the whole dragon's lair began to shake.

Womisol was the first to crawl out of the nest, and the deafening sound made the entire dragon cave tremble.

But this time, the first one to fly out was Silver Wing.

Then it was Wormisol's turn. The dragon with its companion followed closely behind, and flew out one after another, leaving Baoyun and Igaras looking at each other in bewilderment.

Viserys frowned, thinking that things were not simple, and hurried to Igaras, wanting to ride his dragon to take a look, but he received a message from Igaras telling him not to join in the fun.

Viserys became even more curious, and he rushed into the Silver Guard's base, preparing to climb to the top of the tower, but was stopped by two Silver Guards.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry, you can go to another tower." A silver guard said apologetically.

Only then did Viserys realize that something was wrong. He rushed to the corridor, ready to go to the tower on the other side to see what was going on.

One after another, giant dragons rose into the sky and surrounded Silver Wing who had landed on the top of the tower.

The people of the Vareses family gathered at the top of the tower, and on Silver Wing's dragon saddle, Valar struggled to fasten the buckle on the saddle and patted his old friend gently.

The command came out in perfect High Valyrian.

"take off."
