Making the Blood Angels Suffer a Little
"Eight Brother! Eight Brother, I'm back!"
Curze, who had just finished cleaning up the mess at the Department of Department of Justice, heard Sanguinius's voice.
"Ninth Brother? Why aren't you reporting to the Administratum? What are you doing here?"
Sanguinius did not answer immediately, but instead glanced at the surrounding scene.
Although it was cleaned up very well, the faint smell of blood still couldn't escape the Primarch's sense of smell.
"The Anti-Corruption campaign is in full swing."
"It's just a necessary task, let's not talk about that. Let's talk about you, what are you doing here?"
"Ahem, Eight Brother, regarding the supply of the Legion -authorized military supplies, do you think we could raise the price again?"
"The Legion's supplies are under my Dad's control; after all, he's the head of the Department of General Affairs. I only follow orders."
"Furthermore, there was a reason why I ordered the deduction of your special military supplies."
Is there a reason?
"Is there a poor Fruit harvest?"
"It's not a problem of a poor Fruit harvest; the problem is that I not only have to supply the Ninth Legion with Fruit, but also my allies."
"Trazyn could eat half the Fruit of the entire Ninth Legion by himself?!"
"Indeed, my brother, Trazyn has a very good appetite."
"That's impossible!"
Could it be that he's been eating Trazyn all the time?
That sounds like utter nonsense.
"I can't hide it from you anymore. Besides Trazyn, many of his people have also Resurrection. So, until his people have a foothold, Nostramo has an obligation to help them."
The first part is true, and the second part is also true, but Sanguinius doesn't want to hear the first part, so let's change it to the second part.
If you change the subject to something he's willing to listen to, then Sanguinius will stop asking for Fruit in front of you.
"Furthermore, with Trazyn, I was only responsible for coordinating the results; my Dad handled the specific procedures, since his clan only Dad."
Both Curze and the 5,000 Praetorian Guard were well aware of this.
The reason the Necrontyr were willing to help them was entirely because of their Dad.
"So that means if I want more special military supplies, I have to go through Uncle?"
"I'm afraid so, my brother. After all, only my Dad has any influence with the Necrontyr."
"But didn't Uncle already go to Prospero?"
"So you knew? Well, then we'll probably have to wait until Dad gets back."
"But I advise you not to think about these things. Recently, many of Trazyn's people Resurrection."
"The settlement has just been completed, and we need even more supplies. We might have to make things difficult for you Blood Angels then."
"Another price reduction?!"
Upon hearing this news, the Great Angel felt he could die right now.
If you can't eat the Fruit of Nostramo, if you can't eat the Fruit of Nostramo to your heart's content.
Sanguinius felt that his fighting prowess, his soul, and some of his noble qualities would pale in comparison.
"There's nothing we can do about it, brother. After all, right now Nostramo is the only inhabited place in the entire Peaceful Star System. The other Planets aren't cultivated, so production capacity is limited."
So how much are you planning to lower the price?
"Don't even think about setting a trap for me, kid. It's not about how much I'm planning to lower the price, it's about how much the Necrontyr are planning to demand."
"What's your conservative estimate?"
30%
"They're going to lower it by another 30%?!"
"You may have misunderstood, my brother. I can only leave you 30%. I'm sorry."
"What?!"
"No! Absolutely not! This is shameful logistical blackmail, this is retaliation!"
"Hey, hey, Sanguinius, don't doubt your brother's character. After all, in the entire Peaceful Star System, the Necrontyr are the original shareholders and the most important allies. This is politics, politics is always like this. Thanks for your hard work."
Sanguinius felt a tightness in his chest, and he couldn't feel comfortable at all.
However, at this very moment, the Night Haunter was already laughing hysterically in Curze's mind.
"Haha! Look at his expression, bro, look at that expression!"
"This is the first time in my two lifetimes that I've seen him like this. You're absolutely brilliant!"
"Tch, who told him to complain to Dad?"
In the end Sanguinius left the Department of Justice, and in the meantime, he began planning his daily Fruit consumption.
When the supply hadn't decreased, he could eat it at least three or four times a day, and he always had fruit slices on hand.
It seems I need to change this habit. At the very least, I should only eat Fruit once or twice a day, and as for cut fruit, the amount should probably be reduced further.
Well!
Bitter!
"Slazov."
After the Great Angel left, Curze called Slazov over.
"Grown ups."
"How's the preparation of the materials we'll need for our the Scouring going?"
"Reporting, sir, preparations are complete."
"Okay, then I'll go to the Administratum and speak with Roboute."
Curze got up and headed to the Administratum. At this moment, the atmosphere inside the Administratum was much more relaxed due to the issuance of the Imperium Resolution.
Roboute finally had a moment to relax and enjoy a plate of pastries.
"Roboute, how have you been lately?"
"Things have been much easier lately compared to when I first arrived; Uncle's methods are really good."
"Looks like you had a good rest."
"So you're here to give me work?"
"Oh dear, how can you call this assigning tasks? This is more like teamwork, after all, it's all for the Imperium."
"Alright, for the sake of the Imperium, tell me your insane plans."
Roboute knew that Terra's Anti-Corruption work was just the Uncle, and the main focus had always been on Curze's side, but he didn't expect the main focus to come so soon.
"The Evernight Legion has now gathered enough evidence and can begin making arrests."
What are you planning to do?
Curze didn't speak, but instead took out a book.
Roboute instinctively thought it was the Evernight Code.
"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely arrest them according to the Evernight Code."
"Of course I believe you; your fairness and rationality are beyond question. But what I'm giving you isn't the Evernight Code; it's a register."
"Directory?"
What kind of directory?
"A list of all personnel in relevant fields across the entire Solar System who are deemed capable of being executed."
???
"Are you trying to wipe out the Solar System?"
"How could we possibly kill them all? The Imperium of Man has no shortage of nobles; I've kept some of these lists."
Are you sure this isn't Horus Heresy?
Under the guise of Terra anti-corruption, they fabricated a series of wrongful convictions and miscarriages of justice. Once they had nearly wiped out the Terra nobles, they replaced them with their own people.
Fortunately, Roboute didn't voice his thoughts, otherwise anyone who heard him would have called him ambitious.
"Calm down, brother, how can this be Horus Heresy? I call this Anti-Corruption."
"But this has killed far too many people."
"Over hundreds of years, a lot of garbage will accumulate. Cleaning it up is indeed very time-consuming, but it has to be done."
