The Sensei, Emperor's True Bloodline

After Emperor performed the armor-bestowal ceremony for Axis, He also requisitioned an Imperial Cruiser for him.

Axis, accompanied by sixteen Adeptus Custodes and one special sanctioned psyker, set off for the target planet.

The commander of this Imperial Cruiser had received secret orders from Emperor; all crew members on board were strictly forbidden from having any contact with Axis and his party.

Even the living quarters for Axis and the sixteen Adeptus Custodes were completely sealed off, with only enough food for two hundred and twenty people delivered daily.

Axis, the sixteen Adeptus Custodes, and the one sanctioned psyker totaled eighteen people, yet they required rations for two hundred and twenty.

This led some of the sailors on the Imperial Cruiser to speculate that the Adeptus Custodes were likely escorting a massive xenos lifeform.

Regarding the sailors' conjectures, the captain of the Imperial Cruiser immediately issued a reprimand, strictly forbidding anyone from discussing or inquiring about the matter.

If Axis needed to communicate with Emperor, the message would be relayed by the accompanying sanctioned psyker, bypassing the ship's astropaths entirely.

This time, the Imperial Navy was only responsible for transport; upon reaching the designated location, Axis and the sixteen Adeptus Custodes would depart via a Landing Craft, with the entire mission carried out in total secrecy.

From beginning to end, these mortals had no idea what the mission was actually about.

This Imperial Navy cruiser was 5.5km long, 0.7km wide, and carried over 60,000 crew members.

Although a section had been partitioned off for Axis and the Adeptus Custodes, it was clearly insufficient for combat training.

Consequently, Axis could only spend his time daily channeling Ki to the Adeptus Custodes to strengthen their bodies.

Such a life was extremely monotonous, and the only thing that made Axis feel slightly better was that the sanctioned psyker arranged by Emperor was a very beautiful blonde girl.

When she used her psychic powers, her eyes would flash with a pale golden light. Aside from cultivating his own aura in his room, Axis would sometimes chat with this psyker girl.

At this time, Emperor had not yet ascended the Golden Throne, and these psykers had not yet had their eyes burned out by Emperor's immense psychic power.

"How do you communicate with Emperor while in the Warp?"

"Sanctioned psykers are bound to Emperor's psychic power through a certain contract, communicating via the Astronomican," the psyker girl said.

However, she did not need such a contract to speak with Emperor at all; the connection between her and Emperor was deeper than anyone else's.

"I don't even know your name yet! What are you called?" Axis asked.

For some reason, Axis always felt that when this psyker spoke to him, the way she looked at him was somewhat strange.

"My name is Kaisa; this is a name Emperor bestowed upon me personally," Kaisa said meaningfully.

"Kaisa! That's a rather pleasant name," Axis said.

"Thank you!" Kaisa replied.

"Then Kaisa, do you know the details of this mission? What is your status within the Empire?" Axis asked.

"I know the details of this mission. After it concludes, I will use my psychic powers to wipe the memories of everyone on board to ensure secrecy.

I will follow you from now on, relaying messages to Emperor on your behalf and handling the aftermath.

As for my status, I am an Sensei," Kaisa said.

Great Father! Can I fulfill your command? Why have I been given such a strange mission!

"Sensei?" Axis was a bit confused.

Is that a title for a psyker? Does it represent psychic awakening, or something else?

Seeing the confusion on Axis's face, Kaisa immediately understood that this guy didn't know what an Sensei was!

Then again, within the Empire, only a handful of people knew what the term "Sensei" signified.

What is an Sensei? They are the true offspring of Emperor, bloodlines born through the normal reproductive process between Emperor and a mortal.

Unlike the Primarchs, who were Emperor's genetic sons rather than biological offspring, the Sensei were His true bloodline, possessing immense psychic power while their cells also inherited Emperor's immortality.

As long as they were not killed, they could live almost indefinitely; they were a form of alternative perpetual, possessing not an undying body, but an ageless one.

This was a gift inherited from Emperor's bloodline, and the closer the bloodline was to Emperor Himself, the greater this gift.

She was born during the Age of Strife on Terra, when Emperor was still warring against techno-barbarian warlords.

At that time, her mother and father were still in love, until the incident occurred where her twenty nominal younger brothers were scattered into the Warp.

Under her mother's persuasion, she had participated in that event, using her powerful psychic abilities to assist her mother.

Her mother and father had completely broken ties, and her father no longer trusted so-called bloodlines or familial affection!

Even her existence had been erased by Emperor, and she was locked away in the dungeons beneath the Imperial Palace on Holy Terra.

It was not until ten years ago that she was released by Emperor and given a very special mission; if she could complete it, her status as Imperial Princess would be restored.

If she failed, eternal imprisonment in the dungeons beneath the Imperial Palace awaited her.

"Is your psychic power very strong? How does it compare to Malcador's?" Axis asked.

Being able to wipe the memories of the entire ship's crew was no ordinary feat of psychic power!

"Malcador is slightly stronger than I am, but ordinary psykers are no match for me," Kaisa said.

The power inherited from Emperor's true bloodline was beyond what any mortal could imagine.

Among all the sanctioned psykers in the entire Empire, she was second only to Emperor and Malcador.

"Alright! That's enough chatting for today, I'm heading back." Axis nodded and prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment, Lord Axis!" Kaisa suddenly called out to stop him.

"What is it?"

"If I ever have a need in the future, could you do me a small favor?" Kaisa asked.

"No problem! Since Emperor placed you by my side, I can certainly help if you need it," Axis replied.

I could even use my Ki to strengthen this psychic girl's body; psychics are always so fragile.

"Is that so? Then what if I wanted your Gene-seed?" Kaisa said.

"I am not a Primarch, I don't have anything like that," Axis said.

I'm not a Primarch, how would I have Gene-seed? Besides, you're a woman! There's no way you could undergo Astartes modification anyway!

"Not that kind of Gene-seed! I mean the kind that can give birth to life," Kaisa smiled and said.

"???" Axis.

I'm trying to have a conversation with you, and you're hitting on me.
