John Snow is A Girl

Chapter 13: Kingslanding 1



The inn is the closest to the gate but also has someone Olivia knows very well working inside. Olivia had sent a letter to Emma about a formal meeting and the woman said she is in kings landing as of late.

The air in kings landing is contaminated with disease, the sewer and the suffering of the masses. "I don't understand why leave the North for this?" Olivia spoke to the woman seated against a window watching the city outside.

"Olivia Snow. You are finally here." The woman stood up and greeted.

"I know you had suspected my identity as soon as I started giving people medicine in the North." Olivia admitted.

"In my line of work when someone is keeping a secret we don't pry." Emma is tall, slender with well proportioned breasts and round buttocks. Her clothes are between revealing and conservative. Tasteful with a bit if spice.

What draws people in is her pair of green blue eyes like those of an exotic fairy. "You are staring." She chuckled at Olivia.

"I am still too young to know how to hide my thoughts." She joked.

"Now that you are ready to communicate openly does it mean you are ready to expand our cooperation?" Emma not one to beat around the bush asked.

"I want to give you something to test for me. If you like it, you can order it for your inn businesses." Olivia called one of her men who brought over a small wooden case.

Inside is a small glass and tall as a pinky. There are two bottles inside. One with her grape wine which is very delicious and contains an abundant amount of mysterious energy because she made it following a recipe, it is not just wine but a healing tonic. 

It's heals the internal organs making people who had many organ related problems feel better after a few drinks. Olivia is not sure about selling her most prized possession so she allowed it to be sold in small batches. 

The other one is a bottle of brandy made from apples. It is a blend of strong alcohol with a lingering fruity taste in the breath. It is very delicious if you like strong alcohol.

"What is this one?" She pointed at the brandy.

"It's called brandy. That small glass is used when drinking it." 

"Alcohol is big business, why come to me?" Emma wondered if the little girl trust her that much. 

"Because I am not in the hurry. For now I am just happy getting my products out there but if they end up not selling then it is okay because they are not cheap especially that wine." She said proudly.

These products made her buy all the fruits in stock in from the Reach delighting them. Their grain is also bought by her to ferment into beer which is very refreshing alcohol but Winterfell was happy to maintain relationships. It is unwise to burn bridges prematurely.

"That's not all, this is called beer it is suitable for people in the south since it is better to feel refreshed. If you agree to sell it I will give you a frost cabinet to store it."

Alcohol can be stores for as long as possible while food can expire. The Reach was even willing to lower its price so Olivia got the ingredients for cheap.

"What if I didn't open a new type of business a year ago? Who would you use to sell you your products?"

"Your enterprise thrived because of my pills, it was only a matter of time. Now quickly agree I want to go and leave you to your... gazing." Olivia laughs light heartedly.

"The noble ladies are angry with you for only selling your beauty pills through the brothels. Why not open a shop and sell it?" Emma asked something she has always been curious about.

"Because I was selling to the people whose business is enticing and charm others. What business do nobles have with trying to make a man come back to have...relations with them again? Don't they have to do that to give birth to heirs and heiresses?" Olivia ridiculed.

"Hahaha... I never thought you looked at it that way. You are a crazy one aren't you? Do me a favor and don't answer like that if the question ever comes up." She laughed and gave a stern warning.

"Alright. What may be appropriate answer?" Olivia said in curiosity. As a cultivator she was never social and always working for her master. Maybe that is why even her juniors looked down on her.

"You can say that you didn't know business." Emma adviced.

"I didn't know business." Olivia said.

"Try adding a bit of weakness and shyness in your expression. Like this " Then she acted vulnerable making Olivia feel like she is being bullied.

"I can't pull that off my eyes are too piercing." Olivia admitted.

"Of course you can. You are very pretty which means half the job is done. Made your large grey eyes watery with tears as if you're holding them back trying to be strong."

"And we're done." Olivia stood up said her good byes and left the giggling woman alone.

"Are you sure about showing yourself to her?" Anna asked her as soon as they entered they room.

"Can you trust a...umm.." Faith couldn't say the bad word.

"Whore?" Anna asked in her stead.

"It is not about trust. I can somewhat protect myself now. And she can not afford to lose my products." Olivia explained.

She and the girls took baths and rested while the men ate and hopefully also went to rest. At 5 evening a loud crash came from downstairs so they all went to check.

Dishes and cups are scattered on the floor, two sides looking at each other with hatred. Seeing her come down, two of the North men came and stood in front of her protectively. She didn't say anything for a while until a man's eyes turned to her.

He has brown eyes looking obscene as if he wants to devour her. A light breeze blew by and the man fell on the ground screaming. She put her hand on her mouth yawning.

The people on the other side became alert and looked around to see what happened. The man soon passed out probably from shock. His sudden silence made the room become enveloped in an uneasy silence.

"Are you going to fight or kiss each other?" She asked suddenly the others are confused by the man who just fell and the rest are still glaring at each other.

"Snow, if we make a mess, the lord.." Blunt scratched his head.

"The lord is not here I am. If someone makes you uncomfortable in this foreign place..... kill them." Her words hang in the air the on lookers equally stunned. Seeing them not saying anything, she continued to educate. 

"If they start a fight don't fight them, kill them. This is not our home, it doesn't matter how many of them you kill as long as you are happy." She said calmly.

The men on the other side wearing Lannister armor took out their weapons. Three of them went towards her but dropped as they took the second step.

"See? like that." She pointed at the men on the ground. Each has something imbedded deep in the space between their eyes. 

This time some people saw her hands release some concealed weapons because she had to kill them unlike the one who is blinded on both eyes with a paralyzing medicine.

"Did you just kill a Lannister soldier?" A man asked from the side. They decided she is more powerful than the men so they surrounded her.

She released something and at the same time they all fell to the ground without movement. But the two standing by her side also fell. She gave a look at her immune maids, they swiftly fed something to the two men. Everyone saw them stand up unharmed.

"The rest of you have exactly 20 hours to convince me you don't deserve an agonizing death." As soon as she finished speaking the one who was on the ground first started screaming.

"Aaah!" "My eyes!" He kept repeating this statement.

Olivia just glanced at him and turned to leave but a man walked towards her in large steps. "Hold it right there!" He shouted but her men stepped on the people on the ground and stood firmly in front of her.

She went upstairs without turning. "The king would like to speak to you." She didn't stop.

"Wait! It was an oversight please give them the antidote." The man shoute but she didn't even turn.

When she reached her room she entered without any qualms. The city guards came and dragged the Lannister men out of the inn. Jaime Lannister ran back to the council, of course he didn't say what happened she just said she poisoned the men for no reason.

A few seconds later Lord Arryn walked in with his own guards. "Call Oliva Snow and tell her the hand of the king is here." The is obvious annoyed.

"Why did such a busy man come himself?" Olivia came out of her room and walked towards the man.

"You refused to come what else can I do?" Lord Arryn gritted out. Olivia didn't even seem fazed by the stern expression.

"We can go now. Girls." The two maids came along. No one knows these girls are very dangerous. On their bodies lay a lot of lethal poisons and weapons they are proficient in using.

The men from the North pulled a wooden box with wheels, there are gifts for the the king and the princess. 

"Are you going to cure them?" Arryn asked her but she looked at him perplexed.

"Why would I poison them just to cure them?" She looked on as Jaime Lannister glared at her.

"They won't die...slowly. You Southerners need to know there are consequences for the games you play." The powder is effective if it touches your skin in the first two seconds its released in the air which is why it is a good weapon if you are surrounded.

Lord Arryn looked at Jaime Lannister in accusation. He can figure out what happened here. The Lannisters wanted to show the North whose in charge but got bested.

"No matter what you have to cure them." Arryn said but Olivia scoffed.

"Why don't you make me old man? Good thing too because their bodies are going to start rotting from outside in. As long as the heart is still intact they will feel every but of pain that comes with it. I hear it's excruciating." Olivia explained looking at Arryn who shuddered at the thought.

"The Lannisters..." Jaime Lannister finally spoke drawing his sword at her.

"You did this, you followed your sisters instructions and antagonized the tree worshiping peasants to show them whose in charge. I know it's true because only she has a reason to be unnecessarily vicious to a child. A child who has come here to help her people."

"Maybe I am wrong and it was your idea. It doesn't matter to me because you wanted to harm me." She said calmly.

"If what you said is true then those soldiers are innocent." Jaime protested. 

"I only cut the hand that attacked me. If you were amongst them you would have also been poisoned just the same." She responds as if he is not an heir apparent to Casterly rock.

"You have made us wait." The queen said as soon as they entered the room.

Jaime is internally sweating. He really would be dying if he was amongst the group, he is so dazed that his mind is buzzing.

It is inconceivable that there is someone out there who doesn't fear his family. Is it just because she is young and doesn't know what being a Lannister means? That must be it!

"Why have you taken so long that you made an old man come to get you? Come here, let me see Ned's famous bastard child." The loud voice of the king sounded.

He said he waited but he sounds to be in a good mood. Olivia walked towards the throne and stood in front of King Robert, first of his name.

When their eyes met, she could swear she saw recognition in those blue eyes. The king stood up abrupt making Olivia jump a distance away from him preparing to take out her needles.

"What is your name?" His voice quivered. This confused Olivia and he asked herself if he is drunk.

"My name is Olivia Snow, your grace." She did a curtsy and said in a soft voice. She wanted to know just how far can a face entrance a king.

"Olivia huh? Why Olivia?" He squinted his eyes.
