The Emperor’s Angel of Death

As Soshjan watched the expressions of everyone present, he began to explain the reasoning behind his arrangement.

"...Some things might as well be said directly. The reason for considering Biel-Tan is that they also lost their home world, and the Biel-Tan people are not very adaptable to a settled life. Secondly, they have enough power to resist the retaliation of Chaos servants in the future. The Royal Court needs to deploy troops in many places right now, and maintaining the operation of an Ark requires a large number of personnel. The Royal Court really can't station a large force there for a long time. This is a consideration based on the current situation and the future. After all, changing a name is better than letting it become a nest for Chaos servants, or even threatening another Ark. What do you all think?"

Ash immediately responded in a sincere tone:

"Your Highness, that is the home of our ancestors. To protect it, we will do our best and try every means. Although we are indeed small in number now, we are willing to accept those wanderers who have lost their homes, and we are also willing to accept immigrants from other Arks. As long as the spirit and history of Lhuna-Saad are still there, bloodlines are not important. We are more willing to serve the Eternal Queen and Phoenix King with all our hearts and be the most loyal subjects of the Royal Court! The Royal Court can station troops on the Ark, we fully accept it."

Even though the Asuryani of the Raven Shrine had humbled themselves, Soshjan still wore an inscrutable expression. He then looked towards the seeress Ela'ashbel. She still wore her seer's robes, but with her eyes restored to sight, her already beautiful face seemed even more radiant.

After a brief moment of eye contact with Soshjan, she lowered her head slightly and said softly:

"Your Highness, I have something to say."

"Please speak, Seeress Ela'ashbel."

"The Lhuna-Saad Ark must be strongly controlled in any case, as it concerns the safety of Kolor. The seer council of Kolor feels deeply responsible for the recent bloodshed, which was caused by a series of our oversights. Therefore, we dare not comment casually on the ownership of the Ark, but it is clear to everyone that the current Raven Shrine cannot guard such a huge Ark. And whether it is immigration or other methods, it seems difficult to solve this problem in the short term."

Soshjan said nothing, but shifted his gaze to Biel-Tan.

"Your Highness, there's no need to make it so complicated. The most direct way is to have their strongest champion duel our champion, and the winner gets the Ark."

True to the Biel-Tan style as always, befitting the most warlike Ark, but Soshjan frowned.

"If everything is decided by duels, by fists, then what is the point of the court? What is the point of laws!"

As Soshjan's last syllable rose sharply, the Biel-Tan seer immediately stiffened, then lowered his head.

"The Royal Court has repeatedly emphasized, and even the two major councils have passed laws, prohibiting any form of private fighting. Has Biel-Tan not received this? There are plenty of enemies in the galaxy, there's no need to show off your courage against your own kin. Yes, I often use my fists in the Imperium, because the law there is almost dysfunctional, and all organizations and individuals with a little power are using their fists. Laws and regulations have become mere toilet paper used to shut the mouths of the weak, but is this a good thing? I don't think so. I can't help it over there, but here, in this country that I created with my own hands, I don't want this to happen."

"Your Highness, it was my mistake... Please forgive me."

"What is Biel-Tan's view on Lhuna-Saad?"

"This Ark is completely dead. It will take a long time and a lot of resources to revive it, which is almost equivalent to building a new Ark. The main plan now is to dismantle most of the Ark's architectural structure and combine the fleet on the main structure of the Ark, like the old Arks of the past."

"So you don't plan to keep the buildings above?"

"Most of them are not needed."

After pondering for a moment, Soshjan looked at Ash.

"You've heard it too, this Ark is completely dead. Even if it's given to you, do you have the ability to revive it?"

"This..."

Seeing the troubled look on Ash's face, Soshjan had a plan in his mind. He leaned back slightly and said slowly:

"Since the founding of the Royal Court, I wouldn't dare to say that I have made many contributions, just a little virtue. Among them, there are three virtues that I value most, and that is fairness, justice, and openness. For national affairs, openness and transparency are the key to ensuring everyone's interests. I have a plan here, let's discuss it directly... Biel-Tan, you will dismantle most of the buildings and cultural relics above completely, as well as all the preserved books, materials, and personal items, and try to pack and seal them up. Kolor will assist Biel-Tan in this work, and then the Royal Court will be responsible for transporting them to another place."

After speaking, Soshjan looked at the Raven Shrine people with piercing eyes.

"The name of Lhuna-Saad will continue. You will have a fixed home. Most of the memories of your former homeland will be preserved. When your strength is strong enough, you can apply to the Royal Court to build a new Ark. Of course, I think if you get used to a fixed life, you may not yearn for the nomadic life of the past."

The Raven Shrine people looked at each other, seemingly communicating silently.

After a while, Ash, as the representative, spoke.

"Your Highness, where are you talking about? We are used to being children of the void. If it's like the barbarians, I'm afraid..."

"No, of course I considered this. You can still act as children of the void. You might like that place even more."

"Yes..."

"The Nexus of Shadows."

Ash was stunned, then said with some doubt:

"I've heard a little about this place. Isn't that the base of the Cult of the Gomorrha?"

Soshjan shook his head with a smile, and Doral responded on his behalf:

"This place has long been controlled by the Royal Court."

"Well... but we know nothing about this place, I'm afraid..."

"So, you don't object to this plan, you just need to know more about the Nexus of Shadows? No problem."

Soshjan looked at the other two sides.

"Kolor accepts Your Highness' arrangement."

"Biel-Tan also accepts Your Highness' arrangement."

"That's good. Let's settle things like this for now. I happen to be going to the Nexus of Shadows. Seeress Ash, the Raven Shrine people can go with me, either representatives, or everyone, can do it. Just contact Lord Doral directly."

At this point, Ash also knew that this might be the best result, so he lowered his head and replied:

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Now that the big things are settled, the rest are small things. Since there were deaths and injuries in this incident, there must be an explanation."

Speaking of punishment, Soshjan's expression became serious.

"As the attacking party, the Raven Shrine must bear the main responsibility, no matter what the reason. Do you accept this, Seeress Ash?"

Ash immediately knelt down on both knees, placed his helmet on the ground, and bent down to press his forehead to the ground.

"Everything is my responsibility. I am willing to die to atone for my sins. Please forgive those clansmen who made mistakes because of temporary impulse."

The other four also knelt and kowtowed.

"We are also willing to die to atone for our sins."
