Chapter 1: Be a Bastard

"I never expected someone who suppose to be an heir to a noble house of westeros dying here as a fighting slave."

a young boy in white cloak whispered to a teenage lying in the floor after getting stabbed by a guard.

The teen despite in hurt getting shock, he wanted to inquire.

"As of know I already know all of your secret Raizel Whent" The boy answered even before the teenage asked.

"My name too is Rai, tell me your last wish. Talk, I am giving you some power" The boy continued.

The teenage can feel he gain a source of power, that permit him to talk.

"Bring me along, I am a target of assassination, all this long Belwas always protect me."

The boy shook his head "no, you are weak, I buy Strong Belwas because I need efficient strength. Less number is better."

The boy stood up and took his hand off the teenage chest, soon the teenage started to feel pain again.

"But I know your innermost will, spit on your evil parent's face, I will fulfill your dream" the boy smiled.

The boy's pupil got larger for a while, then he smiled for the last time.

A huge 8 feet tall man came forward to the boy.

"May I my Lord?" Belwas asked the boy. in return the boy nodded.

Strong Belwas checked the teenage for a couple minute, just stopped after the boy told him that the teen has died.

"Will you really do what you just said my Lord?" Belwas peered into the boy eye.

"Wow I really surprise you have the ball to act like this to our Lord after being slave of him less than a half hour, buffoon." A small man mocked Belwas.

"watch your tongue Syrio, or the first sword could be first midget bloody sausages, don't you see this colossus easily three times your size" another man behind the boy talk to the small man, but his arakh already sliced the skin of Belwas neck.

Arakh, the sickle shaped weapon of Dothraki, is the favorite weapon of Daario Naharis, a young ex sellsword.

"Me a free man, already in his lordship service for couple of months, already grateful for his acknowledgment, yet you, a slave, dare to make a demand him in the first encounter" Daario bantered Belwas.

Daario and Syrio Forel never in the same term in their daily activity, but looking at Belwas act, he found it presumptuous to their Lord.

"He become the target of assassination because he is a bastard of a lord, illegitimate son of noble house gets nothing of their house" the boy spoke.

Belwas step back to avoid Daario arakh, "I believe you no need of more wealth my Lord, but there in Westeros you can find a lot of strong men."

"I kind of like this challenge, Strong Belwas we will visit your friend homeland as it is what I promised him, take his body with us" The boy walked to the gate as he gave command to his men.

"Syrio, Daario, we need no witnesses, I'll pay for the dead and the casualties later." hearing this the guards turn pale.

Hearing the commotion, the slave merchant with more guards come, but they stopped by the boy.

The boy threw a cloth pouch to the merchant "for a slave and 20 guards, no need for more, Belwas tamed by my men."

Seeing the golds inside the pouch, the merchant smiled and bowed to the boy " As you wish..."

As the boy felt his surrounding got froze, his eyes scan the area, an otherworldly beauty appear out of nowhere.

"Rai, I always said all you need is control their mind, no need to kill" the beauty spoke. Her voice was so ethereal, calming, but there are enough authorities to make a king to bend his knee.

The boy looked getting more cheerful seeing this beauty, as he walked toward the woman he, he held her hand.

"I want my men to know the truth of me in the future, so I think less magic here and there will be needed."

The beautiful fairy kept lecturing Rai for a couple of hours.

"How long you want to stop the world aunty?" Rai patiently waited, as the beauty finally stop he spoke.

As if she forgot what she did to the world, she wanted to rebut Rai, " Okay but no more murder, especially innocent, these guards are nasty souls, I'll let this slip, but I will not help you if my sister beat you later."

The beauty then disappeared and the world return to normal. Rai watched the merchant stay in his bowing position as he kept praising how magnanimous Rai in that transaction.

"Where to go my lord? Syrio asked Rai.

"Let's check the unsullied first, along the way, find the recent news of the westeros" Rai responded.

Syrio, Daario, and Belwas acknowledged Rai commanded.

After awhile Syrio asked again "May I know your plan my lord?"

"I'll act as Raizel Rivers, the bastard of the noble house of Whent" Rai answered.

Before the group left Meeren, Belwas asked another wish to Rai, for giving Raizel a proper burial. After that they traveled to Astapor.

Currently at the public square in front of the Great Sept of Baelor, the new king, Robert Baratheon, in his behest, publicly execute all Targaryen loyalist. As the even turn, the next in line to be beheaded is Walter Whent.

But before the executioner swings his slaughter sword, a gold cloak approaches the king with a wooden box in his hand.

"Your grace, there is a group at the gate wants to speak with Lord Whent, they give this box for your kindness hearing me, they said there is a full set for you if you grant their wish."

Robert at the beginning of his reign not yet, fat, he sobber and not so drunk, so that he still thinks wisely. as he opens the box he sees a beautiful valyrian dagger.

"They said a full set for me?" Robert scans the gold cloak.

Seeing Robert stare at him this city guard tremble, afraid his act gives him punishment, but free 100 gold dragon too god to be avoided.

"Yes your grace it was what they told me."

The executioner whom waiting for king's command silently watch this event. He then drops his blade as Robert postpone all of the execution to the later date.

While Walter Whent, the lord of Harrenhal, already wet all over his body, he let a sigh of relieve, thinking the king pardon him, but soon he was dragged away by guards following the king to the red keep.

In the great hall of red keep, the king meets with the group of men in white cloak, only three of them allow to enter. two average size adult men, and one monstrosity in flesh.

The monster is Belwas, the enhanced Belwas, that what Rai called him, 10 feet in height, more than 100 stones in weight. Robert never saw human as large this one.

An average looking adult actually is the enhanced Syrio that now 6 feet in height, while the smallest of the three, a teenage looking boy with feature much resemble Lord Whent, except he much younger, shoulder length pitch black hair, his eyes is dark grey. This young one is Rai acting as Raizel.

"Man, I think they caught all of Whent" Robert grumbles

As this even quite surprising almost of important people of red keep present, including the small council member. The spider, Varys also looks intrigued by Raizel appearance, that also Remind him Oswell Whent the deceased King's Guard.

Rai bend his knee "Your grace thank you for granting my wish" he stays still until Robert let him stands up.

"Who are you boy?" Robert calmly asked.

Rai smile as he stares at Raizel's father whom still can't closes his mouth due to surprise.

Actually Walter kind of get relieve as he feel he finds a silver line to get of this predicament. in his mind he believes his son come to save him. The son he wanted to kill all this time.

"I believe my name is Raizel Rivers your grace, first allow me to give you what I promise earlier your grace". Rai speaks.

Rai nods to Belwas, he moves a steel box from his back and put it to the right of Rai. As Belwas move back, Syrio come forward with a key and open the box.

"Your grace, in your approval, I present you a full set valyrian armor with a valyrian Warhammer."

The entire hall stands still, in a full minute, no body moves, The first one to move is Robert. He walks down the iron throne toward where Rai and the valyrian set placed.

He continues to study the armor, soon he tells ser Barristan Selmy to help him inspect the gift.

"I believe it is the true valyrian steel your grace" Ser Barristan confirms.

Robert burst in laugh, claiming this is the prove of all gods blessing his reign.

Robert than search Varys eye "Are there any information of this boy Varys?"

"Raizel Rivers the firstborn, bastard, of Lord Whent, currently should not older than 15 on his name day, he was thrown away at age 1, latest news I have he struggle in Mereen's fight pit" Varys stop for a while.

"If this is true then the huge man must be the strong Belwas, but I doubt he is this big from what I heard."

As Varys stop he bows to the king, Robert is nodding in return.

"With your gifts I can let you live boy, but no pardon for rest of Whent" Robert walks back to his throne.

Rai bows to the king "I thank you for your mercy my king, but all I want is a moment with Lord Whent"

"You may talk here, no privacy permits" hearing what the king said, Rai walk to the front of lord Whent.

The guards that held Walter Whent steps back a little, "You curse..."

Before Walter Whent finish his cursed words, Rai spits on the Harrenhal's lord face.

"This is for throwing me out while I was a baby" Lord Whent still shocks because of the spit; he then feels immense pains at his crotch.

"This one for all assassin you sent for me." Rai then faces king Robert.

"Once again I thank you your grace for your kindness, actually I still have another present for you your grace."

King Robert burst in laugh for another round, he first commands the guards to move Walter Whent back to the dungeon.

All the lords and others that present in the great hall are waiting for the next gifts, wanting to see what gift that even grander than full armor set of valyrian steel.

But soon they all disappointed as Robert expels them away.

Robert once again scans Rai "You looks alike Walter and Oswell but I believe they both has dark black eye"

"I am grateful that I am not entirely looks like Whent your grace" Rai smiles.

"So, boy what the catches? most of guest already move out" Robert can't wait for another gifts.

Rai takes out a parchment, he takes a step forward, and after seeing a nod from Robert, he moves toward the king.

Robert opens the paper; he soon tenses up. He looks up to Varys, then to Jon Arryn, then to kingsguard and the rest of people that left in the great hall.

"I'll bring my hand and two kingsguard, choose one of your companions" Robert raises up and move out of the the great hall.

In the parchment Rai wrote "I bring along two of last Targaryen, move out all ears especially the relics of past."
