Mufasa met Tywin Lannister again, in Tyrion's card room.
Tywin Lannister was dressed in magnificent clothes adorned with gold threads, a House Lannister roaring lion cape draped over his shoulders, and a pair of red high boots. The House Lannister's light roar was carried with him.
As for the Valyria armor, Tywin had given it to Kevan.
Because Tywin was now past the stage of personally going to battle; he was the Warden of the West, no longer personally leading charges.
Kevan was different; he still frequently participated in Tourneys!
However, with Tywin as his elder brother, Kevan was not well-known in the Seven Kingdoms, not even as famous as Brynden Tully, the Blackfish!
Brynden Tully, the Blackfish, was Catelyn's uncle, currently serving as the Knight of the Bloody Gate in the Vale. He was very famous and well-liked.
When Jaime Lannister went to Riverrun to play as a child, he didn't seek out Lysa Tully, but instead pestered the Blackfish to tell him stories of legendary knights.
Kevan, however, was different; his brother Tywin was too famous, causing his presence to be very low. But he wasn't like Jilian and Tywin's other younger brothers who wanted to defy Tywin.
He knew that the House Lannister owed its fear-inducing power in the Seven Kingdoms over the past thirty years to Tywin Lannister.
Tywin toyed with a gold lion coin in his hand.
"Mufasa, is one gold lion equal to one gold dragon?" he asked.
"Exactly, the weight is the same, so no one will care if it's stamped with a lion or a dragon!" Mufasa said.
"You have rendered great service to the family, not only recovering light roar, but also other Valyria weapons. Your father Jaime and grandfather Kevan have also been fortunate enough to receive Valyria weapons and armor."
"Tyrion also made a fortune thanks to you. What reward do you want from me? A castle? There are still a few unclaimed territories in the West!" Tywin said.
When the West was governed by Tywin, he killed several families, exterminating them. Now the lands of House Reyne and House Tarbeck are still in his hands!
Mufasa shook his head.
"As long as you all die, everything of the House Lannister will be mine!"
Tyrion and Kevan, who were at the side, heard his words and their jaws dropped in astonishment. Both quickly forced their jaws back into place.
"Mufasa, don't be so disrespectful! How can you speak to your grandfather like that!" Tyrion chastised him.
He feared that if Tywin got angry, he would directly revoke Mufasa's status and prevent him from inheriting Casterly Rock.
But to his surprise, Tywin Lannister burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, ambition is the way of kings!"
"I hope you can do even better! Beyond our imagination!"
After Mufasa left the card room, he planned to visit the House Tyrell.
He had obtained five items from a lottery draw not long ago.
The Ice Crystal Stone was used by Treading Snow Black Steed.
The Purple Gold Crown, he kept for himself to wear.
The black jade balm, he intended to give to Willas of the House Tyrell.
The Rose Sword, a blood-red treasure sword, he intended to use himself.
The Fortunate Potion, he planned to give to Joffrey before the competition to bless him with first place in the archery contest.
Arriving at the House Tyrell's lodging in King's Landing, he told the guard his identity and that he was looking for Loras.
However, he was informed that Ser Loras and his brother Ser Garlan had gone outside the city with their eldest brother Willas.
"What are they doing outside the city?" Mufasa asked.
"They went to North Sea Kindergarten to see your mount, Ser Mufasa! Lord Willas loves raising horses; he bred the best falcons and hounds before you!" the guard said.
"I see! I'll go find them now."
Mufasa also mounted his Charcoal Fire Dragon Colt and hurried towards North Sea Kindergarten.
At North Sea Kindergarten, Gendry was training Babalu and three others; they would be Mufasa's bodyguards in the future.
"One, two! Three, four!"
Gendry had now become an instructor. Every time he shouted, the four little ones would thrust or retract their spears.
"Your training method is wrong!"
Gendry suddenly heard a voice coming from outside the kindergarten.
He turned his head and saw two people standing, one sitting in a wheelchair being pushed, and seven or eight attendants following behind them.
"Who are you? Where are you noble young masters from!" Gendry asked.
But after Loras walked closer, Gendry recognized him.
"Ser Loras the Knight of Flowers!" he exclaimed.
Loras nodded. He was well-known in King's Landing, so he wasn't surprised to be recognized.
"This must be Ser Mufasa's North Sea Kindergarten, it seems quite special!" said the man in the wheelchair. He was no older than thirty, but looked somewhat aged.
"What are you doing here, and what do you mean my training method is wrong?" Gendry asked.
Looking at the man in the horned helmet before him, Loras smiled.
"Brother, can you take off your mask? You look quite scary with that horned helmet!"
"The Ox Warrior never takes off his mask. My helmet is my mask, so I won't take it off," Gendry said.
"Aren't you afraid people will be scared of you and not dare to approach you?" Loras asked.
"The children here all call me the Ox Demon King, but they're not afraid of me! They even like me very much!" Gendry said.
"Enough, Loras, we came to see Heraka! Is it here?" Willas asked.
"Heraka, are you talking about Ser Mufasa's mount? Jon Snow took it to South Mountain Nursing Home. They just killed a few pigs and are stewing pork!"
Gendry said.
Heraka has a huge appetite, but sometimes it can go without food because after its evolution, it can absorb faint magical essence from the air to sustain its life.
However, sometimes Heraka still likes to eat meat; it has become like a dragon, preferring cooked meat.
"Then we won't disturb you, let's go to South Mountain Nursing Home!" Willas said.
The brothers were about to leave, but then Gendry called out to them.
"Wait a moment, you just said my teaching method was wrong. May I ask for your guidance, Ser Loras the Knight of Flowers?" Gendry looked at him and said.
"Challenge me? Why don't you participate in the Tourney instead! There are more strong fighters there!" Loras said. He didn't intend to bother with an unknown person like Gendry.
But what he didn't know was that some unknown people were more powerful than him.
"Are you scared?" Gendry's voice came from behind him.
Ser Loras stopped in his tracks and looked at an attendant.
"Bring me my sword!"
Loras picked up his weapon and came before Gendry.
"Come on! Today I'll teach you how to use a sword."
But to Loras's surprise, Gendry took out a warhammer from the house and rested it on his shoulder.
"Sorry, Ser Loras, I don't fence; I like to smash things!"
