Game of Thrones: I loaded the Witcher system

After Clay assigned the task, he did not leave the school grounds immediately. Instead, he sat down and chatted with the sad-looking side branches.

This time, Clay no longer had to use some tricks to strengthen the relationship between superiors and subordinates like last time. He listened attentively to each of their introductions about their own situation and tried to keep it in mind.

After the long or short introductions of the twenty people were over, Clay mentally summarized the characteristics of these Mandalay children who were already in dire straits. In short, there were three characteristics:

First: Although their family status has declined and they are not at all close to the nobility, they or their families still have some money left to buy a set or half of a simple set of armor.

Second: Almost all of these people’s fathers participated in battles with their fathers. Some participated in the Usurper’s War, and some participated in the encirclement and suppression of Narrow Sea pirates with the royal fleet led by Stannis Baratheon. battle. Most of them are the latter, but at least they know what war is like.

Third: The Mandalay family has lived in White Harbor for so many years, and there are not even a thousand but hundreds of side branches with the Mandalay surname. How could the old man and Sir Malone find these societies in such an intricate network of relationships? People whose family relationships are simple and easy to manage are really in trouble.

Clay named a few people and asked them casually about the wars that they or their parents had experienced. If they were the commanders themselves, how would they direct the battle?

This question is a test of their independent thinking ability, because before this, each of them was a conscripted soldier who was ordered around by nobles on the battlefield and only knew how to execute orders.

As the exchange deepened, these farm boys who were a little timid and dared not speak slowly began to let go, and the atmosphere became lively. Clay's questions received a variety of answers.

Although most of the battlefield plans are not feasible in Clay's opinion. To put it bluntly, they are pure acts of giving away people's lives. However, Clay is still very satisfied, because at least no one showed a flattering smile and said to him: " I listen to you, my lord." Such flattering words that made his blood pressure rise.

As the afternoon passed in a hurry, these Mandalay branch members discovered that the young master Clay they were about to follow had a temperament that convinced them, and their analysis of some of the battles they had participated in was also very impressive. The whip is far better than the bad idea they thought.

Although the wisdom of Master Clay may be more than the wisdom given to them by the gods, Master Clay still continues to encourage himself to think and give his own opinions.

Moreover, after they carefully expressed their opinions, they did not encounter any scolding. This made each of them feel that the young master valued them. This is the future heir of Bai Gang, and his status is higher than those of them. where it goes.

Everyone was unaware of the passage of time, until their Master Clay ended his conversation with them until the shadows of the huge city walls and towering towers fell on them.

The White Harbor Guards, who had been waiting in the distance for a long time, stepped forward to meet Clay. In the eyes of the Mandalay branches, Clay walked away, while a tall, serious-looking guard captain walked towards They, let them get into formation, and take them to dinner,

From today on, they are members of the White Harbor Guard.

…

Stepping on the melodious bells of the clock tower, Clay stepped into the Mermaid Palace. Since his return, Earl Wyman has had a habit of inviting members of the direct family to eat together at dinner every night, which was not the case before.

Looking at his grandson's young and handsome appearance, Earl Wyman, who was drinking from a wine glass, asked with a smile:

"So, these people meet your requirements." When he said this, the old man winked at him.

Smiling in his heart, Clay certainly understood that this was the old man telling him not to spill the beans and inadvertently reveal the true purpose of selecting these people. If Clay said, this was just the old man worrying blindly, how could he not understand this? Is confidentiality important?

He pulled out the chair with silk cushions and sat next to his sister Wilfield. Unlike Duke Ed, who had a very strict upbringing, the old man did not prohibit his grandchildren from drinking. After all, he himself was a big drinker.

Wilfield, who has a quiet personality, showed a soft ladylike smile to Clay, picked up the wine bottle, gave him a glass of wine, and said softly:

"Clay, the whitefish today is very good, you should eat more."

Clay returned a natural smile to his sister, and was not polite. He took the glass and took a sip, and then began to deal with the salmon in front of him.

At today's dinner, his father Sir Wendel, who has been staying in the military camp, is also there. Uncle Willis is not in good health and has been taking medicine, so he did not attend the dinner today.

In fact, Wendel has always wanted to talk to his son, but the White Harbor army has been updating equipment recently. As an infantry commander, he has to keep an eye on it. If he allows his subordinates to do it, he doesn't know how much corruption will occur.

"Clay, are you recruiting your personal guards?" Wendel asked his son.

"Yes, father." Clay chewed in his mouth and nodded.

"Have you chosen the person? I can tell you that the personal guards go to the battlefield to protect you from swords and arrows. You can't find those who are short in stature. If there is no one, I will get you some from the army. It doesn’t matter, they are all veterans who came out of the battlefield.”

Sir Wendel has a very straightforward character. He actually never knew how to communicate with his son. He could only use his best field to help his son. Although he didn't know that as soon as his proposal was put forward, the old man would reject it in his heart.

"Okay Wendel, just take care of your soldiers. I'll take care of Clay's personal guards. Take your sword and cut down anyone who dares to reach out to the soldiers' equipment. I don't want to see the soldiers changing their armor. It’s worse.”

Nodding instinctively, Wendel has resolutely implemented his father's words for decades. Like his eldest brother Willis, he is a qualified good soldier and good general, but this is also the point that Earl Wyman is most dissatisfied with.

Willa, who has recovered from the depression of what happened in Winterfell, has resumed her quirky personality, chattering in the ears of Clay and her sister Wilfield, telling stories that she doesn't know. Where did you hear the sailor story from?

After a meal, Clay, who was just about to go back to his room, was pulled by his sister Wilfield.

Following her sister to the castle garden without knowing what was going on, Wilfield, who looked hesitant for a long time, asked Clay:

"Are you going to the Twins to meet those Freys?"

"Grandpa told you?"

Clay was a little surprised. Sir Malone wouldn't say anything about this, so only his old man would say it.

"Yes, can I ask you something?"

"you say?"

"If anyone from the Frey family proposes my marriage to you, Clay, you must reject them!"
