Chapter 9: The lion at rest

Soon Cersei calmed down and under Aslan's request and appeared to call Tywin.

3 minutes later, Tywin entered the coach. Aslan could see his father's angry look.

"Why didn't you give up the fight?"

Aslan was silent in front of Tywin and finally answered.

"I couldn't, I don't want to lose, it's my pride."

Tywin looked at his son for a long time, then left the coach without a word.

Aslan huffed and then looked at Cersei who was standing in a corner hugging her golden dress.

"Come here Cersei."

Aslan softly called Cersei, who approached cautiously.

When she was close to Aslan, she felt a hand caressing his head. She felt a warmth that she had not felt since the death of her mother.

Tears began to flow from her beautiful emerald eyes.

"I thought you were going to leave too. I don't want to be alone."

Aslan hugged Cersei and sighed.

The journey resumed and they entered the Westlands two days later. The Lannisters were welcomed into the chateaux of the various little lords of the Westlands under the jurisdiction of the Lannisters.

Around Aslan, the guard was very strict. Constantly next to him was Leo and around him were the 100 soldiers from Lannisport.

The 100 soldiers respected Aslan and they didn't want to let anything happen to him, they even controlled the Lannisters' relatives to prevent a single problem from reaching their lord.

3 people could see Aslan, Tywin, Jamie and Cersei. Cersei spent most of his time at Aslan's bedside, singing or taking care of him.

Aslan was initially incredulous about his half-sister's behavior, but soon got used to his behavior.

Two more days passed and in front of the cortege was Castral Rock.

In front of Castal Rock stood Uncle Kevan and Aunt Genna with his daughter and a huge crowd.

Seeing Tywin arrive with the cohort, everyone began to shout congratulations but Tywin kept a serious face. Kevan and Genna knew the reason for his concerns.

Her son was injured during the tournament despite an epic fight.

Shiera seeing Leo next to a carriage ran like a wild cat to see Aslan.

Leo recognized Shiera and let her into the coach. In the coach she sees Cersei and Aslan laughing together causing her a slight jealousy.

Shiera caught Aslan's attention, when he saw her he felt his heart wobble.

In just one year, Shiera had grown up and her childlike features gave way to much more sensual traits.

Shiera was truly deserving of her title of the pearl of Westeros. Cersei seeing Aslan hypnotized by his cousin, reminded him that she was still present.

The two girls looked into each other's eyes ignoring Aslan who had an ironic smile on his face.

"It's complicated to manage women. I will never trust these novels harem again." Aslan thought.

Soon the cortege entered with the inhabitants cheering Aslan and praying for his recovery.

At Castral Rock, a 6-year-old Tyrion ran to his brother's wheelchair. Tywin had sent a crow from Viergétang to prepare a wheelchair for Aslan when they arrived in 6 days.

Aslan was pushed by Cersei who was standing next to Shiera. Leo looked at Aslan and his eyes seemed to say, "courage brother".

Aslan felt trapped between two ferocious lions and he was not talking about the Dorne snake with which he had played or the thorny rose of the reach.

Aslan curses his libido yet he couldn't ignore women. Every healthy man would be aroused in front of a beautiful woman.

Aslan was taken to his room under the care of Cersei, Shiera, Léo and 6 Aslan personal guards who followed him from Lannisport.

Aslan spent the next few days in Castal Rock recovering from his injuries, but he did not know the extent of the rumors concerning him spreading to Westeros.

Everyone learned of Aslan's talent in sword-wielding and that he could bet his life in a fight. Aslan passed for a madman who bet his life in a fight.

There are also rumors about Elia and Janna which spread throughout Westeros, different lords wanted to see how this matter would be resolved. Everyone thought that Janna and Elia could be Aslan's mistresses.

Aslan, who was recovering, was once confronted with these rumors in front of his father.

"Tell me son, these rumors about you, Janna and Elia are true?"

Aslan, who was surprisingly calm in any situation this time, he felt weird.

"..."

Tywin looked Aslan straight in the eye. When he saw the lack of answers, he got up and left.

As he went through the doors of the corridor he said suddenly.

"From your silence, I already know the answer."

Aslan awkwardly turned his head away but his father's next sentence made him choke in his saliva.

"Aslan, you are the first man to have two wives from the 7 large families of Westeros at the same time."

Aslan coughed lightly as Tywin left the room with calm steps.

As Aslan sighed at the problems before him, Tyrion entered his room with books.

Aslan was surprised because Tyrion spent his time in the library and rarely went out.

"Tyrion, why did you come?"

"To accompany you, I don't want to leave you alone."

"Hahaha, I'm not alone, your big sisters are coming here soon."

Tyrion looked at his big brother, who was one of the only people not to despise him in Castarl Rock with surprise.

"Aren't you afraid big brother?"

"Why should I be afraid?" asked Aslan with a questioning face.

"Because Cersei and Shiera always have a scary face when they come out of your room. They look at each other with a face like that."

Tyrion showed a frightening grin to Aslan making him laugh.

"Don't worry, they are just a joy."

Tyrion nodded, but he didn't believe his brother's words. Tyrion was very intelligent for his age.

Days passed and after 1 month of rest, Aslan had already become famous as the bloodthirsty lion or the mad lion.

Robert announced from Storm's End that Aslan was an honorable and fierce opponent.

Different lords saw Aslan as a serious threat to them. Aslan was someone who could develop and strengthen the Lannisters, thereby breaking the balance of power. The most worried were the Targaryens.

Aerys got wind of the son's genius in his hand and he was jealous because Rhaegar was his son but he was plotting against him.

In this chronology, Aerys did not have the idea to recruit Lannister in the royal guard suggested by Cersei. As a result, Jamie and Aslan remained safe at Castarl Rock.

Tywin had already left for King's Landing just after staying two days at Castral Rock.

Genna Lannister returned to the Freys, leaving Shiera with Aslan. Jamie meanwhile decided to hunt a few bandits to train and catch up with his brother.

During this month there were 7 assassination attempts against Aslan. 3 by hitmen who were all killed by Leo or the guards of Aslan. The other 4 were poison that Leo smelled with his nose.

...

After this month, Aslan asked to be sent back to Lannisport. He couldn't find anything to do in Castarl Rock and Lannisport he still had things to do.

Aslan sent a letter to his father at King's Landing. Two days later, Aslan received his response.

{Do what you want.}

Aslan called his 100 soldiers the same day to prepare to return to Lannisport.

Shiera and Cersei got wind of this news and told him that they were going to accompany him on his journey. Aslan saw their determined eyes and finally, he accepted.

At 1 p.m. the procession left from Castral Rock. Aslan found himself in a long carriage in front of Cersei and Shiera.

The trip lasted 4 days, they had to slow down because of Aslan.

On the way, the procession encountered attackers targeting the coach. The 100 soldiers have demonstrated their elite status.

The besieged procession of 150 men was defended with only 100 elite soldiers and a giant lion.

After killing 100 men, the rest of the attackers fled their tails between their legs.

Cersei and Shiera were afraid because it was the first time to be this close to a battlefield, but they calmed down when they saw Aslan's nonchalant face.

Arriving in Lannisport in the evening, Aslan went straight to the castle with Leo, Cersei, and Shiera.

The servants of the castle were surprised to see their lord but all greeted him with a smile and helped him to go to his room.

Aslan was happy to be in a place he knows and is sure of his safety.

The next day, he was awakened by Cersei and Shiera who told him that Gerion, Mereth and the other leaders of Lannisport were aware of his return so they came to greet him.

Aslan with the help of the girls was transported to his office and he told them to bring everyone here.

Quickly people started to enter.

Aslan was congratulated on his bravery at the Viergétang tournament and some also complimented him on his luck with the women.

Aslan joked with them for a moment before becoming serious again.

Aslan asked them how Lannisport has been for the past 6 weeks and all reports indicate healthy growth.

Aslan also noticed that the army recruits increased tenfold.

Mereth explained that Aslan's fame contributed to the prestige of his army.

The army of 30,000 soldiers increased by 10,000 more, bringing the army to 40,000 soldiers. Aslan finally had a decent land army, adding up a strong navy of 30,000 men with 10,000 artisans, cooks, geographers, and other trades.

Aslan was happy with his growing army. The seven crowns all have around 50,000 soldiers, yet they could have many more soldiers. Aslan learned in his youth that since the conquest of Aegon the conqueror, all the crowns had to limit their army.

Currently what Aslan is doing breaks many settled, but three other realms have started to move. The first were the Tyrells, on their return, Olenna commanded the development of the army.

The second is Dorne, a cunning people who knows how to feel danger and prepare for it and finally The Vale, a warrior people despite their arrogance.

Aslan then spent the next month at rest giving only a few orders. Aslan asked soldiers to find stones that fell from the sky. He gave them money, a horse and a period of 1 year. The soldiers followed the order without objecting because all the soldiers of Lannisports respected Aslan who knew how to lead them without sacrificing them.

Aslan also employed alchemists who requested funding for their research in exchange for their services. Aslan employed them instantly because he knew the importance of scientific advances.

These alchemists were introduced to him thanks to his agents scattered in his shops which were all over Westeros.

These alchemists are men who were expelled from King's Landing or who did not want to be forcibly recruited under Aerys.

These alchemists made explosive catapult balls. The alchemists put in Greek fireballs and stones to cause maximum damage.

Aslan thought of the one thing at the time.

"Fragmentation pomegranate?!"

With these weapons, Aslan's fleet became even more dangerous. The alchemists adapt these balls in different sizes to be able to throw them with catapults or hang them on ballista tiles.

The year 279 passed in this way with the training of the army of Lannisport and the search for meteors for Aslan.
