Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 67: Flea Bottom

It took some time to place his fleets in the right place. Thankfully, his chosen Admirals from Wolf's sword were very trained in commanding. The Eastern and Western fleet had taken their position. The Sentinel Fleet was also positioned near Braavos.

Alexander's Attack fleet which he was going to use was waiting for him near the Summer Isles. His fleet of 250 warships, 15 Man-O-War, 2 ship-of-the-line, and Yamato warship were quite intimidating. He was also bringing 4 more Yamato steel warships.

But before that, he was going to King's Landing. Alexander's printing press was running at full speed. Various books about laws and stuff were being spread around the world. Many posters of Alexander were also being spread in all poor parts of Westeros. He was being hailed as the King of Smallfolks. To strengthen his image he was going to help the poor of King's Landing.

"So, Dobby. You'll join me when I start the siege of Qarth. When you're not here, Elina, Benjen, and Anna will watch over the administration of the North. I'll be taking Bronn and Kreed with me," Alexander told his people and left.

"Never really thought I'd see a day when we'd siege a city in the east," Anna exclaimed.

"Well, he's a god. He can do whatever he wants," Benjen replied and everyone nodded their heads.

Brandon had been made the lord of Norgold, so he and his small family were living there. Though they had a portkey and came to Winterfell every day. Brandon was taught how to be a good lord for the past whole year so he was doing good now. Ashara and Alexandra mostly spent their time in Winterfell. Ned was not so lucky, he couldn't tell his wife about Alexander and he didn't want to either. He also comes to Winterfell once in a while to see Jon. His wife was also pregnant again.

...

Small Council, King's Landing.

All the members sat silently waiting for the King. The small council had 7 members in it.

1. Hand of the King - Lord Jon Arryn

2. Grand Maester - Pycelle

3. Master of coins - Currently vacant

4. Master of Laws - Lord Renly Baratheon

5. Master of Ships - Lord Stannis Baratheon

6. Master of Whisperers - Varys

7. Lord Commander of the Kingsguard - Ser Berristan Selmy.

It was a rare meeting as today the King was going to come too. Normally, the king was required to come to all meetings but the current king was too incompetent and would rather spend that time with pleasure women. The gate suddenly opened and the slightly fat king entered.

Robert had started gaining weight since last year, behind him was his Kingsguard, Ser Berristan Selmy, surprisingly the queen was also behind them. Normally the queen wasn't supposed to be there, but Robert had allowed it to happen, after all, it was Lannisters paying for his pleasures.

"Sit down, all of you. You all know, Lord Stark is going to visit us. I don't want any of you to mess up. I will not face his anger because of your incompetence" Robert roared. He was still a bit scared of Alexander.

~The word Incompetence doesn't feel good from your mouth~ Jon thought.

"Come on my dear, he's just a small lord. You are a king. What's there to fear?" Cercei spoke in her arrogant voice.

"That small Lord single-handedly took down the King's Landing and beheaded the Mad King. His first sword, Ser Dobby, single-handedly killed 300 of your Lannister soldiers." Robert angrily spoke.

"He also has the mightiest Navy in the world. More than 1000 warships. Even if all the southern lords combined our might, we wouldn't be able to fight them" Lord Stannis said with a bit of worship in his voice.

"He has also rebuilt the Moat Cailin, so no one can attack them from the land. He also has new flourishing cities bigger than King's Landing. Not to mention the recent news about their collaboration with the Iron Bank. They are the strongest house in Westeros, your grace," Pycelle added.

Cercei's face looked horror-filled, when did the world change so much. She asked herself.

"Yes, I think their Armies are as strong too. When I went there for the opening of the Iron bank, someone attacked the little children that Lord Stark had taken as his grandkids. The man was neutralized even before he reached the kids by those masked Wolf's sword." Jon Arryn told them.

"Now you understand why I don't want to anger him, woman?" Robert asked.

"B-But, you are the King" She mumbled.

"Shut up. Not one more word from your mouth. Renly, increase the city's security. I don't want any new crime to happen. Also, get someone to clean the streets," he ordered.

"Now, I need to go back. I am busy," he left.

~what's the point of this, we can't hide the whole city.~ Jon thought.

...

Alexander stepped down from the ship on Harbor. The city was stinking, the sewers must have either collapsed or jammed.

"Oof, The King of seven kingdoms live in this shit-filled city?" Bronn interjected.

"Sadly, yes," Alexander replied and walked. He cast a bubblehead charm on himself and his men.

"I don't know what you did, but thank you," Bronn took a long breath.

"Kreed, you take our men to my mansion. I'll go and have a talk with Jon," Alexander instructed. His mansion was situated slightly west of the red keep.

"Bronn, I want you to go to Flea Bottom and assess the situation there. The standards of living, crime, and helpfulness of the City Watch. Things like these."

"Why do I get to go to the shitiest part of the city," he complained and walked off.

Alexander then headed to the Red Keep with 2 Wolf's sword behind him. It was all the same as he saw the last time.

Surprisingly, an old man with a balding head and long white beard was waiting for him.

"Lord Stark, welcome to King's Landing," Pycelle greeted.

"Thank you, Grand Maester. Though I must say, the smell isn't really welcoming here."

"Ah... Yes... The sewers haven't been cleaned in a long time. Lord Stark, I must thank you for giving the Order of Maesters a place in Wintercity."

"Yes, I need to meet with Jon. I'll talk to you later, Grand Maester." Alexander ignored him and went away.

~He's too unfit for the job of Grand Maester. He's practically under Tywin's hands. His time has come now~ he thought and placed a curse on him. Pycelle would slip from the stairs in a few days and break his neck.

"Jon, my friend. How are you?" he asked as he entered Hand's chamber.

"Ah, Alexander. Nice to meet you again. I've cleared my schedule to help you with whatever you need," Jon replied.

"Haha... I don't need much Jon. All I ask is to allow my men to buy some buildings in Flea Bottom. They will build some food storage and work distribution centers. All homeless women and children will be sent to Norgold. Women will get jobs there and children will live and learn in orphanages. Doing this will decrease some load from King's Landing. I also want to upgrade the sewage and the buildings." Alexander informed.

"T-This will cost a fortune. I can give you permission to buy but the money," Jon contemplated.

"I'm not asking for money, Jon. I am sponsoring all the work. To recover the costs, allow me to open some shops in the upgraded Flea Bottom in the future. I'll recover the cost myself," he proposed.

"This... It is a good plan. I will write the papers. How long will it take to bring your men?" Jon asked.

"They are already here and have started to draw plans. Just make sure that City Watch doesn't create problems. My men will stay in my mansion so you don't have to worry about their lodging. They will also hire men from flea bottom so there's no problem too. I'll leave 1 Wolf's sword to protect them " he answered.

~How strong are his Wolf's swords that he's just leaving 1~ Jon thought.

"You aren't going to meet Robert?" Jon asked.

Alexander shook his head, "No, I'll probably get angry. Robert has disappointed me. Let's hope his children are good."

~That is if they are his children. Should I tell Alexander about my doubts? No... He'll probably get too angry and kill Robert~ Jon thought.

"Alright, Jon. I'll be leaving for Flea Bottom now. You should start writing things," he said and left.

...

He walked the streets of Flea Bottom. Calling the conditions there bad would be an understatement. Due to overflowing sewers, the streets looked more like water passages. Children sat near each building asking for money or food. Their eyes were filled with hopelessness and misery. Naked women walked around, offering themselves for a coin or a loaf of bread.

It really hurt him seeing all that. Then he tried to imagine what the conditions would be in cities like slave cities of Astapor, Meereen, and Yunkai, where slavery was the main trade.

*POP*

Suddenly a blue bird popped on his shoulder.

"CHIRP"

"Haha... My dear Berry, thank you. I was a little upset but thank you for uplifting my mood." Alexander said, scratching the phoenix's neck.

Berry also rubbed his fluffy head on Alexander's cheeks. Then he flew into the air and started singing. Uplifting the mood of everyone in Flea Bottom.

~I'll just take over the whole world and banish slavery. I wonder why I didn't do it already if I am 15,000 years old in this world. Something must have happened~ he asked himself.
