Robert " A Fine Lad, Damn the boy made me remember the days of Glory. Crushing everyone on the path. " Cersei narrowed her eyes towards Kyle. She calculates whether she could use such a person. If the winner was just a random squire whose age was 20 and above. She would not have bothered with them, but the youngest knight of Westeros and with such a strength.
She definitely try to win him over. That is the allure of loyalty of a famed and powerful knight. Tyrion " It seems Brother, the boy before you has beaten your Youngest Knight of this Era and even broke Daemon Blackfyre who was knighted at the age of 12. " Jon Arryn " He might even surpass, Ser Duncan the Tall who has been from the Common Folk. "
Kyle was called out to the King's presence. Robert Baratheon " A Fine Lad, that Ned has found. What is the surname you have chosen for yourself. " Kyle knelt to Robert Baratheon " Your Grace, I have chosen Armstrong as my Surname to be called as Kyle Armstrong. Your Grace. " He might have given even the Family Motto to Eddard Stark but here it is not appropriate than telling more than Surname.
Robert " Quite an interesting name. Anyway lets begin. " Robert took the Sword from Ser Barriston. He pointed the Sword towards Kyle and said
In the name of the Warrior, I charge you to be brave.
In the name of the Father, I charge you to be just.
In the name of the Mother, I charge you to defend the innocent.
Arise Ser Kyle Armstrong of Winterfell , the knight of the Seven Kingdoms.
Kyle stood up and this time he was raising as a knight. The crowd cheered ' Ser Kyle Armstrong of Winterfell!!! ' The Crowd is going crazy as they are witnessing the history. Knighthood ceremony of the Youngest Knight of Westeros. Then Kyle collected the 5000 Gold Dragons Prize from the side and put it in his pocket space.
Then following that the Archery Competition, Kyle had his Bow and hit the Dead Center at the first round. At each round the distance increases to eliminate each personal. At 200 yards distance. Nearly all 50 competing participants were removed from the competition. By then only two remained, one is Kyle and another is Li Yi an archer from the Yi Ti kingdom from the Far south of the Essos.
Tyrion " Look at that, our knight is not only good at Swordsmanship, but also good at Archery. How did Ser Rodrik of North even train the kid. " Robert was really excited at the Talent, he wants this Kid, to stay at Kingslanding. He even thought about having this Kid at Kingsguard and then had put the idea back.
The boy had chosen the family name for himself. That means he wants to become a noble himself. He must think of other ways to make this boy stay with him. Kyle then at 250 yards, both Him and thr Yi Ti Archer hit the dead Center. And finally at 300 yards, Kyle hit the Dead Center, but Yi Ti Archer missed it a by slight margin.
Making Arthur win the Archery Competetion. He pocketed another 1000 Gold Dragons and the cheers of the Audience. Tomorrow is the real competition starts where he would be jousting and be in Meelee where all the great fighters would be present, yet still it is nothing for Kyle. At the evening Royal Banquet, Kyle being the youngest knight was invited to attend.
Kyle went to the Loom Street and got himself a fine Dress for his size. And went for the Banquet. His position were at the end of the room, along with some squires of the Great Knights. The men are here to interact with Noble Ladies so if some of the small nobles take interest in them, they would enter straight to Nobility.
Kyle was not interested and he act as a loner, he just at the dishes at the hall. For him who eat best foods of Makino and the Prepared nutritious meals of Punk Hazard. It is just very bland and not at all tasty. Yet he just ate it with descent Courtesy. At the Kyle met an interesting personal whi he wanted to meet the Most.
The imp of Casterly Rock with his Mismatched Eyes and Big Head. Tyrion " It is nice meeting you, Ser Kyle Armstrong. It is surprising that you are not surrounded by Noble Ladies. " Kyle " Nice meeting you Lord Tyrion Lannister. " Tyrion liked the way Kyle looking at him. There was no Mockery or Disgust which really surprised him.
Compared to Blue Jam's hideous face, Tyrion is far handsome. Kyle " What does Lord Tyrion need of me. " Tyrion " Just curiousity, how can one be so talented. And I heard that you would be participating in both Meelee and Jousting. " Kyle " Yes, Lord Tyrion. " Tyrion " Jousting would give you a valuable experience which is good, but as for Meelee, you are too young to participate and all of them would be vying for your defeat or to Kill you. It is better you don't compete. "
Kyle can feel that Tyrion is genuinely concerned about it. Kyle " Lord Tyrion, what do you desire in Life!? " Tyrion was surprised to hear the question. Tyrion " You are too young to have that talk with me. " Kyle know the dream of Tyrion but did not say it out loud. Kyle " For me, there are only three things I desire as of now. More Enemies to sharpen my Swordsmanship and Fighting, preferably War. More Books to Sharpen my Mind and enrich knowledge. One day marry the most beautiful women in the world and have a loving family. "
Tyrion's eyes widened, Tyrion " Quite an Ambition. But I do like it. " Kyle " So I have already decided after the fight, I would be leaving to North and after spending some time with my father and my Friends. I would be moving to Essos Free Cities and find my own Mercenary Company and join the wars in Disputed Lands. On the journey, I would collect Books and document my Journey to enrich my knowledge. After earning enough one day I would marry the most Beautiful Girl and live a fulfilling life as a Family. "
Tyrion " You are smart kid. You want to let your intentions known to others through me. " Tyrion understood what Kyle was thinking, he wants Tyrion to spread Kyle's intentions known to other big nobles and even the King so that they would not offer him something so he would reject it which may seem like an insult to them.
