Warhammer: In the Name of Nirvana

The great fleet directly belonging to the Lord of Mankind is not too far away from the Tarkus system, although they still have to continue to jump in the warp for some time.

Even the greatest Emperor could not change this: he could not change the fact that even though his heir was suffering in endless purgatory, he could not rush to his side immediately.

There are always people who think that the Lord of mankind is a natural god, an omnipotent and omnipotent person, so they are disappointed with his indifference and inaction at certain times, thinking that this is a manifestation of his despicable nature.

They have never thought that perhaps, even such a powerful figure is not omnipotent. Even the Emperor himself emphasizes this point over and over again, but there are still many people who are superstitious in their imaginations. The invincible statue in the.

After all, there is no shortage of fools in the galaxy: powerful fools, simple fools, smart fools, and smug fools.

The Emperor did not try to stop him anymore. He always had more important things, he always had darker secrets, he always had more painful thoughts and difficulties, and most of the people who could let him talk about all this have been separated. , only one person still sticks to his side.

【Makado. 】

When the Lord of the Human Empire called his only trustworthy old friend on the "Emperor's Dream", his voice was a kind of exhaustion that no one would believe. Even the Imperial Guards would feel embarrassed by this scene. Shock burst out from deep in their hearts: the omnipotent lord in their hearts was slumped on his golden seat, the fatigue on his face was as obvious as the scars on his soul.

Along with the emperor's call, the light of the Seal Master flashed faintly from the projector. His old but still bright eyes first cast an extremely worried emotion on the Lord of Humanity. It was not until he confirmed that he was okay that the Seal Master Breathe a long sigh of relief.

"You shouldn't be so reckless, my majesty. Even if you want to rush to the front line, please don't set off again just after coming out of the webway like you are now."

The Seal Holder's voice was impolite, and the Emperor was used to it. He just showed the same old smile. After the sacred radiance dissipated, he looked stronger than the Seal Holder.

[I have no time to rest. My Macado, there are some troubles in this species named Randan, some enemies that my descendants cannot deal with. Only I can completely eliminate it. 】

"But even so, you should not open the Mars crypt in such a hurry, especially when you are so weak. Any mistake may have serious consequences: we can afford to lose a few more star systems. , but we can’t afford any mistakes on your part.”

The Lord of Humanity did not give any more explanations to his best friend. He just waved his hand slowly, and his face regained a certain expression. When Machado realized that a familiar temperament was spreading on the Lord of Humanity. , he knew his persuasion was coming to an end.

At this time, the Lord of Mankind, or the Emperor, did not allow any disobedience. He transformed back into the most majestic, vicious and indifferent king in the primordial nurturing room. His will was so realistic and powerful. , and even often caused misunderstandings to those who held the prints.

Whenever the Sealbearer sees this bloodless and tearless tyrant, he will feel in a trance that this is the true appearance of the Emperor.

[Opening the crypt of Mars is a necessary move, Palmmaster, I can foresee the outcome of the battle that took place in Tuckers. If this opponent named Ran Dan does have his own path to hegemony, Then my heirs alone cannot fight against the alien who commands Ran Dan. 】

[This will not be shaken by changes in numbers. Even three or four Primarchs created by me cannot stop it. 】

【Only I can kill it. 】

[So, I must go. 】

He told all this, and then fell into a kind of silence. After a while, he slowly spoke.

[I will kill it. This will not be a suspenseful duel. When I chop off its head, this war will declare its end, and we will have time to deal with other things. 】

[Deal with...my heir. 】

After the words fell to the ground, the person holding the seal raised his head.

He could feel that something in the Emperor's aura was changing: Although Malcador was in Terra at the moment, thousands of stars separated him from the Emperor, but the long period of cooperation, getting along and sincere friendship allowed him to Subconsciously determine any situation of the Lord of Mankind.

Sure enough, when the emperor spoke again, his voice had changed from indifference to some hesitation, and he sat in his seat again, showing exhaustion and entanglement.

【you say……】

[How should I face her, Macado? 】

【Like just now? 】

"..."

The person holding the seal did not answer this question immediately.

——————

[I can't find out more about her current situation, Macado, but I can be sure that the mark I left on her has never been truly touched. 】

[She is very well-behaved, or obedient, and smart. She knows what I mean. She has not touched my bottom line. As for what she will do to those aliens, I don’t care. I deliberately amplified her hatred of aliens. This is trustworthy. 】

[Zhuang Sen’s overall evaluation of her is pretty good. He will frequently mention this name in his reports about Ran Dan. I believe that Zhuang Sen is not a person who can be bewitched. No one can really bewitch a beast. 】

[Jonson doesn’t need anything, he has no weaknesses. 】

The Emperor's words made the Sealbearer touch his neck, and after a brief hesitation, he spoke.

"My lord, do you still remember the role and purpose of the second original body at the beginning?"

"Others may not be able to handle a Caliban lion, but that doesn't mean she can't do it."

[Of course I remember, Malcador, she is the one who controls the beast for me. She has the magnanimity to make the most fierce people surrender. This is a gift I gave her. I have never really taken away this. 】

[But I also remember that I destroyed one of the conditions necessary for these abilities to actually work. I cleared her emotions. Of course, I didn't eradicate the root cause. 】

[If emotions are a rich pasture in everyone's heart, I just cut off all the blades of grass, leaving only a layer of grass roots that can grow slowly, but I also left fragments in her memory to let her know What a lush patch of grass would look like. 】

[In my original plan, she would grow up by my side. As a fusion agent between brothers, I even made her the most humble of all creations. I planned to accompany her for at least twenty years. Years, until the emotional pasture in her heart grows lush again, and I will use this time to let her understand what true and correct emotions look like. 】

[But, you also know, my Macado, this plan was ruined. 】

[She could only grow up alone, but she seemed healthy. 】

At this point, a simple, arrogant, and fearless pride appeared on the emperor's face.

[It’s worth celebrating, isn’t it? 】

[I got back a fight from those evil things in the subspace. I successfully prevented my daughter from being enslaved by them. I knew full well that she would be harassed from the subspace, just like Jonson and Senge. Les did, but it was clear that she, like them, did not succumb to this power. 】

"Maybe it's just disguise, my lord. We all know that the power in subspace is best at disguise and deception."

[Any disguise will be seen through by my child, and Zhuang Sen did not wave his fangs at her. This is the best answer. 】

[What's more, those evil gods have a greater influence on Sanguinius. Do you know how surprised I was when I first arrived in Baal? 】

[Wings, a pair of wings, a pair of wings that allow people to fly with the help of spiritual energy. I even wanted to give up on him for a moment, but he proved to me that he is reliable with facts. 】

"I have several descendants with obvious ties to the Warp, but none of them have let me down: Sanguinius, Perturabo, and Magnus. I trust them, their loyalty is clear. 】

[Perhaps, we can expect that she, Malcador, the gods in the subspace are not invincible. I can feel that she has endured pain, distortion and testing, but she has not touched my bottom line. 】

"Can you feel it, my lord?"

[Yes, I can vaguely detect every pain she feels. 】

"Then...have you ever thought about intervening? Just like you did with the thirteenth original body?"

This question made the emperor silent for a while, and after a long time, he let out a whisper like a sigh.

[Some things can only rely on her own persistence and awareness, Makado. 】

[I can't help her, futile help will only increase her inner despair. 】

"Perhaps one gesture can change many things, my Lord."

[A gesture doomed to failure? This doesn't change anything, Malcador. 】

The Emperor's stubbornness caused Malcador to remain silent until he heard another sigh from the Lord of Mankind.

[But... maybe you are right, Macado, I do need some gestures, or to hear her thoughts. 】

[I...I will work hard. 】

[But this cannot take up more time and energy. We still have some more important things to do. The intelligence sent back by the Eleventh Legion worries me. My failed son seems to have come from some dark corner. Learned about the existence of the Webway and some of the things in it. 】

[I made him hate the warp, but this hatred seemed to destroy him. 】

"...What is it, my lord?"

【……】

This time, the emperor remained silent for an especially long time. Even the air and wind around him were quiet, as if he was escaping from something.

——————

[Something I met, knew and confronted in the webway. 】

[Something that made me miss most of the battles with Ran Dan. 】

[Makado, my friend, have you heard of...]

【The King of Darkness? 】
