Chapter 62 Water Dancer

There are all kinds of people in this world.

Peasants, slaves, merchants, mercenaries, even robbers, thieves, etc.

And the races are also diverse

Westeros is home to the Northmen, the Ironborn, the Dornishmen, the Orphans of the Greenblood River, the Mountain Clan tribes of the Vale, the Mountain Clan tribes of the North, the Zeddites, the Skaggs, and even rumored to be above the Wall. There are also giants and white walks in the north.

And on the Essos continent that Viserys is about to reach, there are also Dothraki, Braavos, Qarth, Lazarin and so on.

Every type of person and every occupation has their different way of life. After all, if it is not a noble, there is no huge wealth that can be grabbed without hard work, and if you want to survive, you need to do your best.

Viserys didn't really like the group of mercenaries at first.

Not because of the so-called 'honor', but because Viserys felt that this group of people was a group of people who did all kinds of evil, and they could kill anyone as long as they had money.

But now Viserys suddenly had an idea in his mind about how to gain a foothold on Essos in the future.

"Can you... use these mercenaries?"

After all, mercenaries are prevalent on the continent on the other side of the narrow sea, and he still has enough money in his hand.

So in that case, can you hire the Legion, or buy some Unsullied to help him gain a foothold?

The boy stood there and was slightly silent for a while, but this was just an idea that suddenly popped up on him temporarily, and whether or how to do it still needed to be considered.

Then Viserys glanced at the back of the mercenary, then withdrew his gaze.

It was just a blip and didn't cause too many waves on this ship.

But how many people just watched Viserys' back secretly from behind is unknown.

Then Viserys prepared to leave the deck and returned to the cabin, and then met the chief swordsman of Braavos who was practicing swordsmanship.

"Lord Syrio Freer?"

Viserys stopped slightly and looked curiously at the swordsmanship practiced by the chief swordsman.

And the other party didn't have any taboos, that is, he was generous on the deck and exercised his muscles and bones normally.

After all, swordsmanship is a skill that practice makes perfect. If you don't draw your sword for a long time, even a chief swordsman will inevitably be a little unfamiliar.

However, there is something different about the swordsmanship of Sirio Freer.

The lightness is like an elegant dance, the sword light is like rain, and it seems that it can easily penetrate the enemy's defense.

Viserys narrowed his eyes slightly, and in the depths of his lavender eyes, the cumbersome magic circle shone slightly.

Under his extraordinary ability, the swordsmanship of the chief swordsman of Braavos fell into his eyes, and he saw it clearly.

"Is this the famous Water Dance?"

Viserys looked at Syllio Freer with a slight surprise.

"Amazing."

This is a technique that is different from mainstream swordsmanship. It uses a light stabbing sword, stands sideways to face its enemies, and looks extraordinarily dexterous.

The swordsmanship that Viserys practiced with the instructor is the more mainstream swordsmanship in Westeros, open and close, more war-based, wearing armor and armor.

Water dancers, on the other hand, seem to focus more on dexterous solo action.

"Master, I'm just a swordsman, not an 'adult'."

And at this time.

Scilio also found Viserys, then slightly retracted his sword, put the rapier into the scabbard, looked at Viserys and explained.

Although he is the chief swordsman of Braavos, he does not have a title, and the chief swordsman, unlike the Kingsguard, is not a lifetime position.

If one day his sword is no longer sharp, or if a stronger swordsman defeats him, then he will hand over the position of chief swordsman.

"I have nothing to do on the boat during this time. Can I ask you for swordsmanship when I have time?"

And Viserys didn't hesitate, and spoke bluntly.

There was really nothing to do on the ship during this time, and Viserys felt that he could take this opportunity to ask this master swordsman for advice.

This is a rare opportunity.

"Um?"

And some sloppy men in black were slightly stunned when they heard Viserys' words. He didn't expect that Viserys would actually want to learn swordsmanship with him.

Then he scratched his hair.

"This"

In fact, the swordsmanship of Water Dance is not a unique secret that cannot be shared. There are many people who practice this swordsmanship in Braavos. This is a unique swordsmanship system.

Scilio was just the best and hardest of them all.

"Okay. If the young master has time, you can naturally ask me for advice at any time."

The chief swordsman just hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed to Viserys' invitation. There was no psychological obstacle for him to teach his disciples. He had taught others in Braavos before.

However, this time, not far.

There is a pair of eyes watching all this from the gap of the door panel of the cabin.

Then he hurriedly hid before Sylio's eyes swept over.

And Scilio also turned his head left and right and glanced to the side, he just always felt that someone was looking at him.

"what happened?"

However, nothing was found. The man scratched his hair with some doubts, and then didn't take this matter to heart.

Time is fleeting.

After a week or so, the merchant ship finally arrived at Pantos in the free trade city-state.

This is a rich city by the bay. To the east of Pentos is a vast field called the 'Flatland'. Continue east along the road built by the Valyrians, and will cross the upper tributaries of the Lorne, through the Velvet. The hills enter the Andas Mountains and arrive at Gor Dorje.

The avenue continues to extend, connecting Gordor with the other two free trade cities, Norfos and Kohor.

So the location of Pantos is also very important.

The merchant ship docked at the port of Pantos to load and unload the cargo. After a few days of rest, a group of passengers disembarked, and at the same time, another group of passengers who were going to Braavos paid the fare and boarded the merchant ship. .

People came and went, and Viserys hid in the cabin the whole time and rarely showed his face outside.

During this period, apart from reading some books donated by the mayor of Kleon, he practiced swordsmanship with the chief swordsman.

Viserys' speed of progress in reading and practicing swordsmanship is amazing. In this pair of gem-like eyes, everything is invisible, and even Kleon and Syrio are a little stunned.

However, when the merchant ship was about to leave Pantos and set off for Braavos...

Suddenly an unexpected thing happened.
