Warhammer Inquisitor

Vito sits on the throne.

His hand was caressing the golden bronze statue of the lion, and between two roaring lions he was sitting on the throne of the great hall of the monastery of the Rock, the throne of the lion king, but now he sat on it.

The flag of the Dark Angels was hung in the hall, and the flags of every company around were not absent. In addition, there was also the battle flag inherited from the age of the ancient legion here, which was hung behind the throne.

On the left and right sides of Vito, there are two dark angels holding swords. They stand behind the throne, wearing winged helmets and looking forward. with.

The entire hall was filled with Space Marines, all the Dark Angels, and some invited Space Wolves gathered here. There were no mortals, and the only one who looked mortal was Vito.

This place belongs to the heirs of the demigods, they talk to each other, Lancelot, Ragnar are here, Bell and Eisenstein are on the other side, with the chief priest Dyer of the warband, everyone is talking enthusiastically Excited, excited, and in awe.

Beside the throne, Celestine holds a winged helmet next to Vito.

But to Vito's surprise, the fallen angels were also here. They stood alone at the edge of the hall. He looked at them, and then was attracted by the distant voice.

The sound of heavy footsteps came from a distance, and the hall fell silent. People watched Ryan walking in from the door. He walked into the hall and walked on the road between the soldiers.

Unlike Guilliman's coronation ceremony, Ryan's was extraordinarily simple. There was no gorgeous guard of honor, no banners flying all over the sky, no choirs and crowds praising him.

There was silence in the hall, surrounded by thousands of space warriors who had filled the entire hall watching him, silently watching him walk by.

Ryan came alone, wearing that battle armor, without gorgeous decorations, without golden glory robes, but it was extraordinarily solemn, solemn, and awe-inspiring to the person who came.

His steps were steady and strong, with the lion's head heaving up and down on his shoulders, and the warriors watched him, Lion walked up to the throne, before Vito.

He looked up at Vito on the throne, and then knelt down on one knee. Vito got up and stepped off the throne to stand in front of him, with golden light shining behind him, lightning turning into a crown on his head, and the battle robe he was wearing was dazzling.

"Lian Al'Jonson, Emperor's Son, I, Vito Constantine, Supreme Admiral, Guardian of the Empire, Swordbearer and Defender of Order, ask here."

Vito said solemnly, the soldiers looked at him, and the audience was silent, "Are you willing to accept this crown, accept your title, and perform your duties, in the name of the emperor, in the name of mankind, in the name of justice In the name of defending the Empire, and its beliefs."

"I would."

Lawn responded in a low voice.

"Will you swear allegiance to the Empire, to the Emperor, and to carry out his will in his name?"

"I would."

"Are you willing to swear that if you betray, you will be punished, stripped of your title and power, and bear the corresponding price?" Vito asked again, and the lightning crown on his head danced, and the light was reflected on Lawn's blond hair .

"I would." He replied again.

"Then, I will crown you." After Vito said, Celestine stepped forward beside her, and she presented the winged helmet in her hand to Vito, who took it and held it up high.

Celestine's wings spread behind him and stretched forward on either side, and between those wings Vito put the helmet on Lane, "As Grand Marshal, I declare that you will be the first legion King, as the guardian of the empire, I declare you Lord of Caliban, and in the name of the sword bearer, I grant you recognition."

"Get up, King Lane."

After Vito finished speaking, Ryan stood up, the former and Celestine stepped aside, and Ryan walked by, turned around and sat on the throne.

He sat on the throne among the lions, Azrael in the audience, he was no longer the Chapter Master of the Dark Angels, but took the lead in kneeling as a warrior.

All knelt on one knee, thousands of Astartes in the Great Hall knelt at once.

Ryan watched them raise their palms, and everyone in the hall stood up again, and said in a deep voice after everyone got up, "Here, I would like to thank everyone for their dedication and perseverance, and pay my respects. "

"Lord Cypher, you are worthy of your identity, duty and mission." Ryan said to Cypher, "You awakened me and completed the mission of ten thousand years. I will continue to grant you this title and give you trust."

Cypher put his fists to his chest, nodded to Lion, and then turned to Azrael again, who stepped forward and waited.

"Azrael, your honor and responsibility are impeccable. You led the warband when I left. In this strange time, I need your help."

"I appointed you as the deputy of the Knights, my right-hand man." Ryan said.

"My honour, my lord, I will be as faithful as my oath." Azrael said and retreated to the warriors, Ryan nodded to him, and then fell silent for a while.

"Lord Saifo, in order to wake me up, you cooperated with the traitors. Although it was to carry out the mission, they also gave you real help, and maybe there was a sense of repentance."

"But betrayal cannot be forgotten." Ryan said solemnly, looking at Luther, there seemed to be a lot of emotion in his eyes at that moment, but in the end he was suppressed by responsibility.

"Luther, you were my mentor, adoptive father, member of the Knights, and a well-respected veteran." Ryan said, "But you made a betrayal. I will never forget it, and neither will the Empire."

Vito looked at Luther, he stood there calmly, didn't speak, didn't resist, just stood and looked at Ryan, a trace of emotion seemed to flash across his old face.

pride.

"Your betrayal will be judged." Ryan said solemnly, "I, as the king of the First Legion, declare that you will receive the trial you deserve, and all betrayers will receive a fair trial. Does this swear make sense to you?"

"No, do what you have to do."

"child."

Luther's last words were said in a low voice, and he didn't even utter them, but Vito saw his lips and read them.

"That's very good, Supreme Marshal, I want you to ask." Ryan said to Vito again, "I ask you to preside over the trial as the sword bearer, listen to the testimony, and make a fair trial."

"Would you like to?"

"Is this what you want?" Vito asked.

"Yes." Ryan replied.

"Then I will accept the request."

Ryan stood up and looked towards the crowd, "The trial will start tomorrow. Anyone who thinks there is testimony or wants to participate in the trial, get ready."

"Prison those awaiting sentence."

Azrael nodded immediately, and led the soldiers who followed behind him to surround him. Luthor and the others did not resist, handed over their weapons, and were shackled and escorted down.

"What do you want me to do?" Vito whispered after a moment, but not to Ryan, but to Celestine, but not to her, but to the man behind her golden eyes, he knew, He is watching.

She shook her head and said nothing, but Vito's ears echoed with the crow's wings and the sound of swords.

Now he knew that in this trial, he was judge, jury, and.

Executioner.
