House of The Dragon-A God Amongst Men-Chapter 292: Chaos In The Night III

(Third Person POV)

"Is this all you got?!" Maegor bellowed as he bashed his shield against Baelon again, forcing him back, "You stupid runt!"

Ryam got in front of Maegor as the massive Targaryen began to walk towards Baelon, swinging his sword at him. Maegor blocked the swings and countered with swings of his own, to which Ryam parried with ease.

Maegor went for another shield bash, but Ryam stepped to the side to avoid it, swinging his sword down fiercely, and striking his armor. Despite hitting it hard, the sword merely bounced off and caused him to stumble slightly. Taking advantage of this, Maegor swung his sword at Ryam but he was able to duck down to avoid it. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Baelon lunged at Maegor, thrusting his sword at him, and Maegor raised his shield. Like before, the blade pierced through his shield with ease, nearly taking one of his eyes out if he had not moved back in time. Dark Sister was still lodged in his shield, and Maegor twisted his arm, pulling Baelon in towards him, and he went for a swing of his sword.

He was going to strike the Prince, but Ryam was able to block the blade just in time to let Baelon pull his blade out and pivot to the side. Baelon then spun around and swung his sword at his midsection, the Valyrian Steel being able to cut through his armor and got Maegor.

"Ghhnnng!!" Maegor grunted in pain as he swung his sword at Ryam

Ryam parried and countered his swing, aiming for his face but he was able to dodge. He then dodged a swing from Baelon who lunged forwards, taking advantage of the wound he inflicted on him. As the two were putting pressure on him, Maegor was trying his best to block with his shield. Dark Sister was able to cut through the regular steel shield, nearly getting through his gauntlet.

Ryam stepped to the side and thrust his sword at Maegor's face, forcing him to step back and get in position for Baelon to hit a thrust of his own.

Baelon was able to hit the thrust, piercing through the armor and into his midsection.

"Grrr....." Maegor scowled as he cut the strap of his shield and dropped it to the ground, "You...tch...!!"

Baelon frowned, "This guy....." He said, "What is he...."

Maegor then swung his left hand in a backhand motion, striking Baelon in the cheek and sending him reeling back once again.

"My Prince!" Ryam said, "You should not stay close to him that long!"

Baelon composed himself as Maegor swung his sword at him, parrying it with Dark Sister and pivoting away as Ryam tried to follow up from behind. Maegor simply parried Ryam's swings and swung wildly to keep the Kingsguard away.

"I got him, but something is wrong!" Baelon exclaimed as he lunged at him again

Maegor swung his sword at Baelon, clashing with Dark Sister. The impact of the clash caused Baelon to stumble and feel the rattling of his bones.

"You're not worthy of Dark Sister." Maegor said with an enraged look, "You little runt!!!"

Ryam lunged at Maegor who immediately turned around to parry his sword and counter with a fierce swing, causing him to dodge back and nearly stumble away. The force of the swing sent a pressure that he was able to feel, alarming the Kingsguard.

It was quite obvious to them both that something was not right, aside from the fact that the Tyrant who terrorized Westeros was before them, alive.

"It appears that Drakken has done something to him." Ryam said as he composed himself, "This is not good at all...."

Baelon spat on the ground, "For what reason did he do this?!"

"It's quite simple." Maegor said, "To destroy the Faith!!!"

"Baelon!" A voice called out

Baelon turned to see Jaehaerys and Aemon reaching them on horseback, "Father!"

The King was outfitted with armor and had Blackfyre strapped to his side as Aemon was also donning armor. They both dismounted their horses and looked at their foe.

Jaehaerys widened his eyes, "I-It cannot be...." He said, "Maegor..."

"Your Grace!" Ser Ryam said, "You should not be here! You should have brought my brothers in the Kingsguard to deal with this threat!"

Aemon drew his sword, "So..." he said, sweat rolling down his forehead, "This is Maegor....?"

"Father....?" Maegor said as he looked at Jaehaerys, "You don't mean.....you're Jaehaerys?"

Jaehaerys's face hardened, and he drew Blackfyre, "I have no idea why Drakken brought you back, Maegor..." He said, "But I will send you back where you came from!"

Maegor began to laugh, "Hahaha....!" He said, "Jaehaerys?! Little Jaehaerys?! Look at you! You're an Old Man now!!! How pathetic, do you truly think you can stand a chance against me?! Tell me, Jaehaerys....what became of my dragon? Where is Balerion?!"

Baelon straightened up, "You're looking at his rider..." He said seriously

Maegor narrowed his eyes, "You...?" He said, "That cannot be....a little runt like you? Riding Balerion? How pathetic....that dragon once served the Conqueror!! And myself!! How could he stoop so low to allow you, of all people, to ride him!?"

He rushed Baelon and swung his sword, causing Baelon to try to parry him. The impact of the parry caused the Prince to stumble and allow Maegor to hit him with a vicious punch to the stomach, buckling him with ease. If he was wearing armor, like the others, Baelon would not be at much risk of being hurt.

Maegor was going to follow up with a sword swing, but Ryam stepped in and parried the blow, forcing him back with a counter.

Jaehaerys rushed him as well, swinging Blackfyre at his head, but Maegor was able to block the blow with his sword.

"Tch..." Jaehaerys said

"Look at you." Maegor said, "All grown up....you took my throne...."

"That throne belonged to my Brother, Maegor." Jaehaerys said, "You were the one who usurped it!"

"That Throne...." Maegor pushed him back, "Belonged to the Sons of the Conqueror!!! And Aenys, as much as I cared for him, was WEAK!!!"

He swung his sword down but Ryam got in the way and parried the blow, stumbling Maegor. Jaehaerys took advantage of this and immediately pivoted to the left and swung his sword at Maegor's shoulder, the Valyrian Steel being able to cut through the steel plate and cutting his shoulder.

"Gghhnnn!!" Maegor grunted, "You-"

"That's enough." Drakken said as he had appeared in front of Maegor, placing his hand on his chest, "You're getting too damaged, you stupid brute."

"Drakken...!" Baelon exclaimed

Maegor looked at him, "You...."

"I told you." Drakken said seriously, "You are to cut down the Faith....not the Targaryens...."

"They are Faith Worshippers....these stupid cunts..." Maegor said, "Why-"

"They are your Kin." Drakken said, "And these were not my orders. It's over."

Suddenly, Maegor disappeared from sight; he was teleported away as Drakken stood there, patting his sleeves.

Jaehaerys composed himself as he looked at him, "You...."

Drakken gave them a smirk, "Relax, Jaehaerys." he said, "I only wanted to give the Faith a little scare....I do wonder were Barth ended up....."

"Why did you bring him back?!" Jaehaerys shouted

"To see if I could do it." Drakken said, "And now that I know that I can..."

"It opens the doors to so many possibilities."
