"Haha! You two, father and son, are really good at taking turns performing a double act," Malcador laughed.

"If the Military Reforms are led by Old Han, then I have no objection."

After a series of Anti-Corruption actions over this period, the Imperium's political system has become remarkably efficient.

So, after the political reforms, the Emperor felt there was no problem with the military reforms. Moreover, with Han Mingxuan now directly in charge of the Military Reforms, there would actually be less resistance.

Currently, the Eighth Legion, led by Curze, is most notorious for its ferocity and infamy throughout the entire Imperium of Man.

Everyone knows that if the Father of Night proposes a reform measure, it is best to follow it and implement it thoroughly.

Once they begin to rebel against the Father of Night's methods, the Father of Night will then completely relinquish power, allowing Curze to take charge.

Once the Grand Inquisitor takes over this matter, there is no turning back.

Because the old bat might still try to reason with you, but when the young bat says he'll kill, he really means it.

Some people don't believe it?

Then you can go and see the pits on Terra where they're currently digging and filling in Human Skin Pit.

Therefore, after the Imperium's systematic Anti-Corruption, as soon as the next reform begins, Han Mingxuan's approval rating will definitely be much higher Curze's.

Because everyone knew that the Grand Inquisitor's father was a moderate.

At least that old gentleman knew the meaning of "courtesy before force."

But the son he raised was very different.

His son was trained to be a soldier first and foremost, and remained a soldier throughout his life.

As far as the Emperor himself was concerned, Han Mingxuan taking over the Imperium's Military Reforms would be the most desirable outcome for him.

Once Han Mingxuan takes over this task, a rather delicate balance will be achieved between the interests of Astartes and Mortals.

Most importantly, his Webway Project can be brought forward.

Even the Emperor could confidently say that as long as Han Mingxuan began to interfere in the Military Department affairs...

Without a doubt, given time, Han Mingxuan's prestige on the front lines will surpass his own, which is exactly what the Emperor wants to see.

He would build the Webway from the rear, while Han Mingxuan would oversee the Great Crusade from the front, mediating the relationship between Astartes and Mortals.

Malcador, Roboute, and Sanguinius then took charge of Imperium administration, Eighth Legion took charge of Imperium Judiciary.

When that time comes, humanity will have an incredibly bright future.

At that time, the Emperor's Dream will no longer be a dream, but an effective solution and a foreseeable future.

Just as Curze and the Emperor were discussing the details of Military Reforms.

The 19th XIX Legion, along with special operations teams comprised of three Legion, has begun the final stage of its Anti-Corruption.

First, the Raven Guards and Alpha entered the Noble Fortress from the shadows to gather intelligence.

After confirming the complete chain of evidence through intelligence, the Department of Justice broke down the door and arrested everyone they saw.

Whether they are principal offenders or accomplices, anyone who violates the Nine Laws of the Night Bat will be arrested.

Then the nobles suffered.

They might say that according to the Law, the Department of Justice has no way or authority to break down doors, but the Department of Justice has presented evidence.

First, the nobles will be surprised when they see the evidence, and the smarter ones will deny it.

But then an Astartes squad will suddenly emerge from the shadows.

They presented them with new evidence, including audio and video recordings.

The less intelligent ones would immediately question how the Department of Justice obtained these documents, and they would be executed on the spot.

The nobles then realized that they were completely helpless, because the 19th XIX Legion's abilities were simply too extraordinary and unsolvable.

Wherever the shadow lies, there lies the 19th XIX Legion.

Finally, these nobles became frightened; they were utterly terrified, and then they came up with a brilliant plan.

Go and bring back the Father of Night!

Right!

It's about bringing back the Father of Night!

Bring that gentle, even benevolent, Father of Night back to Terra.

"Let's go to the Gusalto Family!"

Nowadays, with the deepening of the Anti-Corruption campaign, all the nobles know that the Gusalto Family has a close relationship with the Father of Night.

Although they did not know the specific relationship between the two, the Old Gusalto was not kicked out of the Father of Night's house was enough to prove everything.

Although the Anti-Corruption had entered its final and most intense phase that day, the Department of Justice was indeed deserted.

Those who used to plead their cases, shout insults, and curse in front of the Department of Justice have all disappeared.

On the contrary, the threshold of the Gusalto Family was worn down by the footsteps.

What's even more unusual is that these nobles who went to the Gusalto Family were not wearing the force feedback Artificer Power Armour that Mortals wear.

You should know that normally when they went to the Department of Justice department to appeal their grievances, they would always wear that suit of armor.

But now, they have completely abandoned all defensive measures.

In other words, this time they came with the determination to die and the utmost sincerity, seeking redemption for themselves.

Meanwhile, at the Gusalto Family, Old Gusalto looked at his two most prized children.

Tears streamed down his face.

As an old nobleman who has fought alongside the Emperor since the very beginning, Gusalto has seen too many people to count. So he could tell at a glance that the two siblings were simply amazing!

These two siblings are exceptional; they are so exceptional that they seem unlike people of this era, or perhaps they are simply unlike people of this world!

Praise be to the Father of Night!

"Father, the Teacher doesn't like this kind of personality cult, like the Emperor himself."

"Haha, yes, yes, the Father of Night taught me well!"

He could see that the light shining in the eyes of both his sister Nobilia and his brother Renato at this moment was rationality.

"Great Emperor! The Gusalto Family has finally..."

"Tsk, Father, this is a result of education, it has little to do with the Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Old Gusalto's face turned pale.

He had heard that those trained by the Father of Night, regardless of their background, inherently possessed a very important component: disrespect for the Emperor.

He didn't believe it at first, but now, looking at Renato's expression and listening to what he said, Gusalto believed it.

"Don't be afraid, Father. Emperors and Teachers are actually the same. They all hate personality cults and even the mythologizing of individuals."

This... seems to be true.

"Renato, that's tough, really tough. I wonder where your Teacher plans to send you?"

"The Teacher plans to send me to the Military Department and my sister to the Department of General Affairs. The recommendation letters have already been written. Once the procedures with the Chancellor minister are completed, we'll take up our posts."

"Alright! That's what I was thinking too. Since the Father of Night has already made the decision for you, then this old man won't interfere any further."

"Also... did the Father of Night give you... um... hiss... uh..."

"What? Father?"

"It's... a graduation gift."
