The so-called Sword Mantra was nothing more than three words carved on the stone wall, "Casterly Rock City".
"Forty years ago, my father was critically ill. My great-grandfather heard the news and rushed back, but he was two days late. My father was raised by him. My great-grandfather was very upset and very sad, and right here … "
Old Tyrion pointed at the stone garden, "He stood here for seven days and seven nights. Finally, he sighed and used his sword to carve three words on the mountain peak.
He was not standing on the edge of the stone wall and using an iron sword to carve. Instead, he was standing beside the fence, dozens of meters away. He was using an ordinary rusty iron sword. It looked like he was just casually waving it a few times. Stone powder rustled down, revealing a finger-deep handwriting.
Every stroke was a sword move, and it was also infused with his understanding of the sword and life.
At that time, his swordsmanship must have improved further. "
Asha rubbed her eyes and tried to calm her heart according to Old Tyrion's guidance.
Finally, she saw the full appearance of the three words "Casterly Rock City". It was indeed carved with iron hooks and silver strokes. Even though she did not understand Draconic, she could clearly feel the beauty and power of the words.
She couldn't help but feel a little excited. The lake in her heart rippled, and the three words immediately disintegrated into dozens of dazzling sharp swords. Every sword used a sword move, and every sword move seemed to evolve into … a world?
It was a very strange feeling.
"Ugh —" She frowned again, and her eyes were stinging with tears.
"Don't look, your realm is not high enough." Old Tyrion brought her away from the stone garden.
"It's too amazing. This is the first time I've seen words that seem to have a life of their own." Asha said excitedly.
"Only when the sword moves have a spirit can one be called a Sword God." Old Tyrion said.
"How did Sir Jaime do it? He was about the same level as me back then. This is too exaggerated. "Asha muttered.
"Asha, your great-grandfather was a famous knight in the Seven Kingdoms. When he was young, he was personally taught by Sir Arthur Dayne. Before he lost his hand, he was already close to the realm of Divine Transcendence. What realm are you now? "The old man said with a wooden face.
"Uh, I'm Iron Seed. I'm good at fighting on the ship." Asha was a little embarrassed.
She couldn't even beat Erlu.
"Why is your family's swordsmanship secret manual open to others? I see that many of the swordsmen in the garden are wearing ordinary clothes. They should be commoners, right? "She changed the topic.
"They are all swordsmanship experts who have come here out of admiration. They are at least level four. Westeros, Ursosian, men, women, nobles, commoners … Casterly Rock City welcomes all of you, as long as you swear a sacred oath that you will never learn Great Grandfather's swordsmanship and commit any evil deeds. "The old man smiled.
"I thought you would keep it as a family heirloom and only show it to your own people," Asha said.
"Sigh, compared to the knowledge of magic and swordsmanship that Dragon Queen has made public, this secret technique is not even a drop in the ocean. Furthermore, Great Grandfather was able to become a Sword Deity because he received the teachings of the Warrior. "
"What teachings?" Asha asked curiously.
Old Tyrion hesitated for a moment. After leading her to the study, he asked in a low voice, "Do you know the Divine Comedy?"
Asha thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "I seem to have heard my granddaughter-in-law mention it before."
"Granddaughter-in-law? Princess Danny? "
Asha nodded and asked curiously, "What is the Divine Comedy? What's so special about it?"
"Strictly speaking, it is just a poem that describes Hell, Heaven, and Earth. But think about it, Hell, Heaven, and Earth, don't they almost cover the entire world? "Old Tyrion said mysteriously.
"So?"
Muggles who came from the Age of Chaos were not very sensitive to the existence of divine scriptures.
"It can't be said that Great Grandfather completely relied on the Divine Comedy to become a God, but it did help him cut off his past and understand himself. His soul shone with endless vitality," the old man said.
Asha's eyes lit up and said eagerly, "Can you let me see it? I also want to be reborn."
The giant Tyrion shook his head and said, "The Divine Comedy can't be shown to others, and it can't be seen. It has been torn apart."
"Are you crazy? Why would such a magical treasure be torn apart?" Asha was surprised.
"My Great Grandfather tore it apart." The giant Tyrion said slowly, "At that time, he met an old friend outside the Great Wall. The other party was in a miserable situation. My Great Grandfather took pity on him and prepared to use the Divine Comedy to bring him back to the embrace of the Seven Gods.
However, after that person saw the Divine Comedy and heard that my Great Grandfather had used it to become a God, he was ungrateful and coveted the Divine Comedy.
At first, he knelt on the ground and begged.
But my Great Grandfather swore that he would never show the original Divine Comedy to another person, so he firmly refused.
I don't know what happened at that time, but the Divine Comedy was stolen by that person. My Great Grandfather was so angry that he chased after him and directly destroyed the Divine Comedy.
It seems that an evil god intervened at that time. Otherwise, with my Great Grandfather's strength, he wouldn't have gone to such extremes. "
"Alas, what a pity," Asha said regretfully.
The old man pondered and said, "The Divine Comedy was destroyed by the Sword Qi, but there are still fragments left.
In recent decades, there has been news that someone obtained the fragments of the Divine Comedy and became a God.
There are even ambitious people who wantonly collect the fragments in an attempt to piece together a more complete fragment of the Divine Comedy. "
"Hearing you say that, I'm even more interested in the Divine Comedy," Asha said.
.....
"You want to see the Divine Comedy?" Dania said solemnly, "That thing is very evil. Many powerful Extraordinaires are also lured into depravity.
You're just an ordinary person. There's almost no chance that you'll survive if you see it. "
They stayed in Casterly Rock for two days before taking the train to King's Landing with Joffrey and Lannister.
That night, in the bedroom that Lannister had arranged for the two distinguished guests, Asha curiously asked about the Divine Comedy.
Asha believed that since the Divine Comedy was written by Targaryen, Danny should know more secrets than the giant Tyrion.
"Have you seen it before?"
Danny nodded hesitantly. "There are fragments of the Divine Comedy in the Imperial University's library. There are even scholars who wrote personal biographies of some demons based on it."
"Why are you talking about demons again?" Asha asked, puzzled.
"Is it strange that there are demons in hell? Originally, the ancestors had already killed all the evil gods, and the evil sorcerers had almost lost their living space.
Without the evil gods, they could no longer borrow their power through blood sacrifices.
But now, there are still evil dark sorcerers in the shadows. Why? "
"Why?" Asha was confused.
Danny rolled her eyes. "Of course it's because there are new evil gods that they worship and sacrifice."
"The evil gods were all killed by the Dragon Queen. Where did the new evil gods come from?" Asha was puzzled.
"Isn't this back to the previous question? Is it strange that there are demons in hell?
The Divine Comedy is essentially a poem that introduces heaven, hell, and the mortal world. In other words, the seven levels of hell and the terrible existences in hell are all described in the Divine Comedy.
And the Divine Comedy has the strange effect of immersing the reader in it. If an Extraordinary obtains a fragment of a demon from hell, they can directly communicate with him or even pull his projection into the real world.
If the Extraordinary's willpower is not firm, or if they have evil intentions, it is natural for them to enter the demonic path. "
"Oh, I see." Asha was enlightened.
"If you are interested, you can read the continuation of the Divine Comedy by the scholars. The fragments of the Divine Comedy are too dangerous for Greyjoy, especially you. "Danny's face was a little gloomy.
"Why are you targeting Greyjoy?" Asha frowned.
Gritting her teeth, Danny said in a low voice, "Because there is also a demon from hell in my family, and he is someone you know."
"Who?" Asha was shocked. "I don't know any demons from hell!"
"You don't know You Lun?" Danny's eyes flickered.
"You Lun???" Asha was stunned and said ridiculously, "That guy, even I dare to fight him one-on-one. You should be able to fight ten of him alone. What kind of demon are you?"
"You fought him one-on-one?" Danny looked at her strangely. "He has the talent of transfiguration, and he is a sorcerer, a summoner, a blood curse wizard, a true sacred child, and many other Extraordinary professions. How do you choose?"
"I know he is a blue-lipped sorcerer, but transfiguration, summoner, and so on, where do they come from? And the sorcerer is not strong. Didn't You Lun capture the great sorcerer of Queers, Kaya? "
"At that time, the magic tide had just recovered, and the so-called great sorcerer was just a beginner with powerful knowledge. When he met You Lun, Kaya had only been practicing for less than a year!
Even in modern times, the sorcerer of Queers is still a powerful faction with medium strength in the Extraordinary world. "
After a pause, Danny explained, "You Lun is not a transfiguration sorcerer in the traditional sense. He was blessed by the Storm God and wears an eyepatch all year round. His different-colored eyes can control crows and cast spells through crows."
"What about summoners?" Asha asked.
"You Lun's sea monster, have you forgotten?"
"Wasn't the horn of the sea monster given to Victarion?"
"Victarion died in the final battle, and the horn fell into the hands of his wife, Margaery. But You Lun is still the first master of the sea monster.
After Queen Sansa passed away, the head of the kings, Duke Gautin, also left King's Landing — "
"Wait," Asha interrupted her. "Isn't the Duke of River Bend Tari? How did it become Margaery?"
"Have you seen the current map of the Seven Kingdoms? A part of the old royal territory, along with the Trident River, belongs to the Duke of Dragonstone Island. It is the land of the Pentashade Dragon Targaryen.
The territory of the Trident River is the compensation for ceding King's Landing and the surrounding area.
The new royal territory of the Crimson Saber Dragon Targaryen is made up of half of the Mander River Plain and half of the Blackwater River Plain. River Bend and River Inter had to cede large areas of land.
River Inter had always been a place of war, and there was no fixed duke family. Whether it belonged to the royal territory or River Inter, it made no difference to the River Inter nobles. That was why River Inter had almost no objections.
But River Bend was different. All the River Bend nobles were part of the Green Hand.
In fact, it was because they were all part of the same family that the large River Bend did not split.
Margaery spent a lot of effort and finally helped Queen Sansa settle the matter. Thus, she became the new Duke of River Bend and reclaimed Tyrell's Gautin.
When Queen Sansa died, she had already obtained the title of Duke of River Bend.
After leaving her post in the King's Hand, she returned to Gautin.
Perhaps she had already achieved her goal of gaining power. After that, Duke Margaery began to indulge in increasing her own strength.
She devoutly served the Holy Mother and raised her priest level while researching the profound mysteries of magic.
The sea monster left behind by You Lun became her target.
If she could control the sea monster, she would become the overlord of the sea. She could even borrow the sea monster's magic power!
Through the horn she inherited from Victarion, she really summoned the giant sea monster from the deep sea into the Mander River. "
Danny's pretty face turned slightly pale. Fear appeared in her eyes. She said with a trembling voice, "Margaery opened the Gates of Hell!
At that time, the Long Night had already ended for more than ten years. After twenty years of growth, the sea monster had become a giant demon.
And twenty years of time was enough for You Lun in Hell to evolve into You Lun Demon … "
