The Great Angel Plays the Victim

"I'm planning to leave Terra soon to visit Magnus."

"No, you can't leave during the Anti-Corruption campaign. Do you know how many people outside the entire Solar System want to kill you right now?"

"I know, that's why I'm even more determined to go."

"Are you crazy? In this situation, what if something happens to you once you leave Terra?"

"The Anti-Corruption requires a long-term strategy; these Vermin in Terra are merely visible bait."

"What truly allowed them to exist, so deeply rooted and enduring, was a system that permeated the entire Imperium of Man."

"This trip isn't just about meeting Magnus; more importantly, it's about drawing out their network of connections."

"Then we'll wipe them all out in one fell swoop!"

I disagree!

Malcador knew perfectly well that in Terra, these nobles were willing to be slaughtered simply because the Emperor was still there.

If they oppose, the Emperor will not let them off, but once they leave Terra...

The entire Imperium of Man has many areas beyond its reach, and Han Mingxuan's situation will be extremely dangerous then.

"I'm just here to tell you, and also to keep an eye on Terra so that nothing goes wrong while I'm gone."

"You're being ridiculous!"

"Ha, my Han Mingxuan is right here. They can come and take it if they want, but if they don't, I'll burn their entire family, including their ancestors for eighteen generations, to ashes."

"That's too extreme, Old Han. Some Knight House are very important to the Imperium; we can't easily wipe them out."

"The one thing the entire Imperium of Man has in abundance is humans, right, Old Ma?"

Well!

"Right."

"I'll set off in a couple of days after I've settled things here."

Do you need me to send someone to protect you?

"That won't be necessary. I have my own bodyguards, and besides, I'm not that fragile."

Having Resurrection half of Solemnace's population, he now wanted to experience what it felt like to have a hand ripped out of one's soul.

"Be careful, Old Han."

"Okay, just enjoy your rare Holiday."

Han Mingxuan had long wanted to test his current power in this universe.

While it may not be earth-shattering, it's definitely enough to protect myself.

"Dad, are you really going to do this?"

"That's right. Right now, you're in charge of the Anti-Corruption situation on Terra, but the forces outside Terra are deeply entrenched. If we don't get rid of them, corruption on Terra will repeat itself time and time again."

These nobles on Terra are just the tip of the iceberg in the fight against Anti-Corruption.

The real issue lies in the corruption that extends from them throughout the entire Imperium.

"Okay, I'll have Sevatar and Cyrion go with you."

"No need, I'll take Old Kamon and the others."

"No, that would put you in danger."

"If there weren't enough loopholes for them to exploit, why would they even bother to show up?"

"This is my bottom line, Dad. Otherwise, don't go out."

That kid.

"Alright, let them both come with me. I'll let you know if there are any problems."

"Okay, Dad, take care on your journey."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

After explaining things to Curze, Han Mingxuan planned to take the Gusalto siblings out with him.

"I need to go out for the next part of the Anti-Corruption work. You two come with me."

"Teacher, we..."

"It's not to keep you from suspicion, but to allow you to learn. After this study tour, you'll be considered graduated."

Graduate?

They never expected that this word would appear so quickly.

"Practice is the focus of my teaching, so during this study tour, the two of you will need to assume the responsibilities of Inquisitor. During this time, Sevatar and Cyrion will supervise you."

"Ultimately, based on your performance and their overall evaluation, I will give a final assessment to determine whether you are qualified."

"Do your best."

"Yes, Teacher."

After explaining all this, Han Mingxuan planned to go to the Throne Room.

Never let the Emperor cause trouble while you are away.

To his surprise, upon arriving at the Throne Room, he encountered Sanguinius.

"Long time no see, Sanguinius, what brings you back again?"

"Uncle, the Adeptus Administratum, along with other departments, issued a resolution, so I came back to take a look."

"I also have some things I need to discuss with you."

Do you need to discuss things with yourself?

When Sanguinius returned, he found that the Prophecy had been completely changed.

However, just as he was preparing to leave, the Emperor's order arrived.

The meaning is clear: he must strictly follow the resolution and not run away before the deadline, just like last time.

Sanguinius had no objection to this. In any case, the Blood Angels had enough Scions, so it was good to train those who couldn't fight in the rear.

Of course, besides these, Sanguinius has another very important thing to do.

That's Fruit.

It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. This is exactly the situation that Sanguinius is facing now.

While the Great Angel could easily simplify other matters, he was truly incapable of doing so when it Fruit.

Consider Fruit supply Nostramo used to have, and then look at how much it's been halved—what kind of miserable life were they living?

As for my experience of eating Baal grapes a long time ago.

That was even more unbearable.

So the Great Angel decided to play the victim to his Uncle.

Since you, Curze, can decide the Fruit supply, then your Uncle can naturally decide Curze affairs.

This time, we must win back at least once.

"Uncle, it's like this, there's been some mishap regarding the supply of special military materials to the Ninth Legion."

Could there really be a problem with the Fruit supply?

"What's wrong? Did someone skimp on your Fruit?"

Sanguinius didn't speak, but his eyes looked pitiful.

"Is someone really skimping on your Fruit?"

"Yes, Uncle."

Sanguinius nodded, his eyes still pleading as he looked at Han Mingxuan.

"Logically speaking, these kinds of special military supplies should all be handled by Curze."

"He wouldn't go so far as to deliberately make things difficult for you when it comes to Fruit. Tell me the truth, did you do something sabotage again?"

"No, Uncle, how could that be?"

"I remember several Primarch from different Legions came to the Council of the Long Night to snatch people away, and you're still saying it wasn't you?"

Han Mingxuan knew his nephew, who was born in the year of Tangyuan (glutinous rice ball), inside and out.

"Uncle, you have no idea how miserable I am!"

"Look at that Administratum, is that a place for a human to live?"

"And I trusted Curze so much, but he tricked me."

"Haha, there's nothing I can do about this. You brothers should sort this out yourselves."

"Trust me, Sanguinius, you're a superstar in the entire Imperium. You can handle this little thing. Goodbye."

Han Mingxuan wouldn't interfere with the brothers' playful squabbles; he'd let them have their own fun.
