When Azrael ordered the attack

Communication has not been cut off.

His words were clearly transmitted to the bridge of the Imperial Glory.

It reached the ears of Dante, Zabriel, and others.

The Fallen Angels, including Zabriel, showed slight changes in expression, yet seemed to think it was normal.

During their time active in the Realspace,

As soon as the news leaks, these guys will come running.

Now that we see them, it's normal to order an attack; it would be abnormal if they didn't move!

Dante's eyes widened.

He stared at the Dark Angels Grand Master with an incredulous and shocked look!

He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Azrael, are you insane?! You actually want to fire on us?"

"Why are you with these traitors of the Imperium?" Azrael looked at Dante with a sharp gaze.

"You mean them?" Dante pointed to the Fallen Angels, including Zabriel.

"Otherwise?" Azrael said coldly. "You shouldn't be involved, Dante."

"Leave here immediately and keep this to yourselves; it will be good for both Chapter."

Azrael gave Dante a choice.

After all, it was First Founding, and Dante was a legendary hero of the Imperium.

If I die here today, the Blood Angels' offspring will surely exact a furious revenge on the Dark Angels.

The war between the two sides will inevitably Rend the entire Imperium apart.

Dante's decision to leave with the Blood Angels and vow to keep the secret forever was the best choice.

"The Primarch of the Dark Angels has returned," Dante explained. "They are following the Lion. Are you sure you want to take action against them? And..."

"A lie!" Azrael shouted, interrupting Dante. "An absolute lie! If the Primarch has returned, why doesn't he come to us? Why does he have to collude with these damned traitors?"

The Primarch returned, but did not go to the Rock, nor contact the Dark Angels.

Instead, he got involved with those damned Fallen Angels.

What about what they did before?

They hunted down those damned Fallen Angels Milky Way for the sake of the Lion!

When the Lion returned, he colluded with the Fallen Angels!

Wouldn't that negate their efforts over the past ten thousand years?

Therefore, the Lion El'Jonson that these people are talking about is definitely not real; it's a fake.

These damned Fallen Angels, for some unknown reason, deceived Dante and the Blood Angels.

Or rather, the Blood Angels are attempting to overthrow the Blood Angels in order to seize power over the Milky Way.

"Traitors?" Zabriel walked to the projection screen and met Azrael's gaze. "What right do you have to accuse us of being traitors? When we were fighting for the Emperor Milky Way, your fathers weren't even born yet."

"You plotted a betrayal in Caliban, colluding with the forces of Chaos to attack the Lion King who has just returned to Caliban!" Azrael shouted.

"It's a lie. We had no idea what was happening. When the alarm went off, all we saw was the Lion leading his paratroopers on a rampage in Caliban," Zabriel said.

Nobody knows how the Caliban civil war started.

After all, at that time, only Lord Cypher and Luther and other high-ranking officials wanted to become traitors.

The Dark Angels of Terra are loyal to the Emperor.

Recruits are Primarch inclined to support the Primarch.

Cypher and Luther did not publicly announce their intentions, fearing resistance from the lower-ranking soldiers.

Therefore, Zabriel and the Dark Angels were completely unaware of the betrayal.

When the Battle of Caliban began, they were confused and bewildered, having no idea what was going on!

All they saw was the returned the Lion wreaking havoc.

The Primarch's hateful gaze made it seem as if the soldiers on Caliban were not his children, but his enemies.

Only by completely wiping out the Dark Angels remaining in Caliban could he vent the hatred in his heart.

Zabriel's first reaction was that the Lion had betrayed the Emperor and was purging those who might stand by the Emperor against him.

Both sides believe it is the other's fault.

"Every traitor is like that; they never think they are wrong."

Asmodai, the interrogating priest, spoke up.

"Grand Master, there's no need to waste words with them. Once we defeat them and capture these guys, we'll have our own ways to make them confess and accept punishment."

"When the time comes, make sure to hand over that fake Primarch to me. I will make him regret bearing the name of the Lion."

"You're all insane! You're a bunch of lunatics!" Dante stared intently at Azrael. "Order your fleet to cease hostilities. Lion El'Jonson really here, and this is no joke."

"The Lion has acknowledged our identity and promised to stop you from hunting us," Zabriel said. "If you continue, you are the real traitors."

Azrael stared intently at Zabriel.

"You're full of lies. Do you think you can prove the lie of Lion El'Jonson's return by deceiving the Blood Angels with clumsy witchcraft?"

"Stubborn to your Gene-Father, Azrael. I hope you'll maintain your current toughness when you meet him." Dante shook his head and ordered someone to contact the Lion and have the Primarch come to the bridge.

Since he couldn't persuade these obsessed Dark Angels, then let the Lion himself teach his offspring a lesson.

At this time, the Lion, with the help of several Magos and Imperium officials, is learning about the current state of the Imperium.

Before Guilliman and the Living Saint returned, the Imperium was in a complete mess.

The bureaucracy was bloated and inefficient, the Imperial Tithe was heavy, and the Imperium was in a state of widespread poverty and misery.

Technological progress has stagnated, and in many cases, it has even fallen behind.

Guilliman and the Living Saint returned to Terra and seized power, launching a series of reforms and purges that improved the Imperium's situation.

After reading the information, Lion El'Jonson's face showed approval.

With Guilliman and the Living Saint in charge of Terra, overseeing the Imperium's development and the procurement of war supplies, he only needed to focus on conquering the land.

The three of them together would be the strongest combination.

"Grown ups."

A servant rushed over and recounted the arrival of the Dark Angels and the tense standoff between the two sides.

Lion El'Jonson's face showed a speechless expression.

Those Fallen Angels bastards in Zabriel opened fire the moment they saw him, which was bad enough.

Now, even the self-proclaimed Loyalists Sons of the Angel are turning against me, and even calling me a fake.

What is meant by filial piety and parental love?

This is called filial piety and parental love.

"Go to the bridge."

Lion El'Jonson didn't waste any words.

The Sons of Caliban must not fight the Sons of Baal, or things will become very complicated.

At that time, whether or not to punish oneself will be a difficult question.

Lion El'Jonson strode toward the bridge, moving very quickly.

Meanwhile, the players were also enjoying the drama unfolding.

As the captain of the Exemplar Fist, Big Blue even activated the visual enhancement device to livestream the confrontation between the Blood Angels and the Dark Angels to other players.

Warmaster: "I feel like Azrael has gone mad, he's even willing to kill his own father!!"

Ten-Timer: "Astartes that doesn't take its father's side is not a good Astartes."

The Twisted Man, "Zabriel's first reaction upon seeing the Lion was to draw his gun."

Little Alpaca: "Hahaha, who's on the bridge of the Imperial Glory? Let's start a live stream and see what the Lion's expression is like."

Colonel Dutch started a live stream.

Warmaster: "..."

A Bowl of Lobster Soup: "..."

"..."

Turtle: "Wow, that speed! @Colonel Dutch, you're a natural internet user."

Strategist: "Hahaha, I see that the Caliban big cats have all come. Azrael, Ezekiel, they are all big shots of the Dark Angels."

Krieg: "I want to see the interrogation of Priest Asmodai, forcing the Lion to admit his mistakes."

Colonel Dutch: "The interrogation priest has made a tough statement, saying he will personally interrogate the Primarch and force Lion El'Jonson to admit that he is an imposter."

Warmaster: "Hahaha, this is hilarious, I love watching it."

"..."

The Lion arrived at the bridge at top speed.

His appearance stunned Azrael and the other Dark Angels.

They had expected to see a Lion exactly like the one from the 30K era.

The Lion that emerged was now all white-haired.

He looked old.

But one can still vaguely make out that it is Lion.

With the appearance of the Lion, the genes and bloodlines that had been dormant for millennia within them began to stir.

Any true Dark Angels could be 100% certain that the aged giant before him was the Lion that the Sons of Caliban had been searching for.

"No! You can't possibly be a real Lion!!" Azrael looked at the Primarch had appeared before him, finding it hard to accept.

For the past ten thousand years, they have been searching for the Lion and hunting the Fallen Angels.

There's even a claim that once they've captured all the Fallen Angels, the Lion will return.

But now, the returned Lion is mingling with Fallen Angels.

This undoubtedly tells them that their persistence over the past ten thousand years has been wrong.

"I'm so sorry." The Lion looked at his offspring. "The Battle of Caliban was a huge mistake. I regret not being there for the final battle on Terra. When I learned of Luther's betrayal, anger consumed my reason."

"Zabriel and the others were unaware of Luther and his group's plans; they were simply innocent victims of that battle."

The Dark Angels, led by Azrael, kept their eyes fixed on the Lion.

They found such a claim hard to accept, but they couldn't actually shout that the Primarch was fake and then order the Rock to open fire.

Moments later, Azrael ordered the lifting of the state of emergency.

Lion El'Jonson, along with Dante and the others, boarded a transport ship and headed towards the Rock.

Players followed suit, claiming it was to open a new map.

Actually, I just wanted to see if I could sneak some of the Dark Angels's treasures and relics.

Everyone knows that the Dark Angels have as many good things as they have little secrets.

When the Lion and his offspring reach a reconciliation

On the other side of the Milky Way, Mephiston's Blood Angels squad and several players also successfully arrived in the Signus Prime.

This location holds special significance.

Sanguinius learned of Horus's betrayal here, and his sons were first enraged by the Black Rage in this place.

This is also where the Red Angel were born.

After Horus was corrupted at the Temple of Davin, he began planning Horus Heresy.

He realized that the Loyalists' military strength was too great, and they had to be defeated one by one.

Only in this way can one have a chance to defeat the Emperor.

The Loyalists Legion was relocated to the Milky Way outskirts, far from Terra, making cooperation impossible for them.

Traps were set for different legions.

The Ultramarines were tasked with working alongside the Word Bearers to annihilate the Ork in the eastern Milky Way.

Guilliman was completely unprepared for this.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lorgar launched the Battle of Calth, crippling the Ultramarines and wreaking havoc on Ultramar, unleashing Ruinstorm.

Horus used a different method for the Blood Angels.

He conspired with Keeper of Secrets Kyriss, and Khorne Daemon Prince Ka'Bandha, as well as Erebus, the Dark Apostle.

Let these guys set a trap for Sanguinius in the Signus Prime.

Erebus created a psionic construct called 'Fire of Rage' with the intention of plunging Sanguinius into Chaos.

This device used a deceased Blood Angels to draw out the wrath of the entire legion, creating a physical entity: the Red Angel.

Under the influence of the Red Angel, the Blood Angels were tormented by Red Thirst, and Sanguinius was heartbroken to see this.

Keeper of Secrets Kyriss offered Sanguinius that if he willingly accepted the Red Angel, his legions would no longer be tormented by Red Thirst.

After careful consideration, Sanguinius intended to accept the deal, allowing the Blood Angels to be completely freed from the torment of Red Thirst.

But the Apothecary Meros intervened at the crucial moment.

He jumped into the 'Fire of Rage' device in place of his father.

This gave the Red Angel a physical form, preventing the opponent from continuing to influence the Blood Angels.

Before his death, Meros left a message telling Sanguinius never to believe in Chaos.

The reason why Mephiston and the other Blood Angels came here was to retrieve the fragments of Sanguinius' soul.

After Knockback the demons, Sanguinius ordered the cleansing of the entire Signus Prime, turning it into a desolate and lifeless place.

But life can always find a way to take root and sprout anew, even in the most difficult circumstances.

When Mephiston and his companions arrived on the surface, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the place had been revitalized, with lush trees and grasslands.

There are some camps left by adventurers, but no family has come here to develop and rule the planet.

The terrifying legends surrounding Signus kept even the most lustful and powerful men from touching him.

Legend has it that a terrifying monster engulfed in flames still inhabits this place.

Those who tried to rule Signus all ended up dying at the hands of that monster.

No legend has any basis in fact.

As the Blood Angels stepped into the desolate and ruined Hive City, they encountered some Cultists.

They worship and believe in an extremely evil being.

Bloody and cruel sacrifices are held from time to time.

Within the ruins of the dilapidated Hive City, corpses, tortured beyond recognition, can be seen everywhere.

The Blood Angels easily defeated the Cultists wandering through the ruins.

After they toppled those blasphemous temples,

The monsters worshipped by those Cultists emerged from the dark depths of the earth.

The other person's body was engulfed in flames, their face was like an empty mask, flames spewed from their eye sockets and mouth, and their face was filled with indescribable pain.

Its armor was black and ugly, with steam rising from its joints, and it had a pair of ghostly, blood-stained wings.

"After ten thousand years, the offspring of angels have once again set foot on this land."

Mephiston frowned and sized up the monster.

Memories surfaced of the Legion's history I had once read, and one of the demons mentioned in it looked a lot like this guy.

"Red Angel?" Mephiston asked tentatively.

"I never expected anyone would still remember me. It's truly remarkable." The monster didn't deny it; instead, it frankly admitted its identity.

The demon— the Red Angel— was born from the wrath of the Blood Angels.

P. S.: Here's a 4,000-word post, plus a picture of a Red Angel.
