Praying for Salvation (2)
Others may not know, but Old Gusalto knew very well that the Father of Night would not easily give out his gift, but since he had, it was of extraordinary significance and purpose.
As a nobleman who has lived since the time of the Terra strife, he has seen many of the technologically advanced barbarians and Psychic Power wizards on Terra.
He also knew that some things might seem unremarkable now, but once they were connected to the Warp, their power would be unimaginable.
"Father..."
"What's wrong, Nobilia?"
"This is the first time I've ever known this side of you."
"Haha, I'm so happy! But it's alright if the Father of Night wasn't prepared, but..."
"Of course, the Teacher prepared graduation gifts."
"Let me see this!"
Seeing their father so excited, the two siblings decided not to keep them in suspense and took out a Jade Tablet.
"This is?"
"The Longevity Tablet my Teacher carved is for protection and peace."
"Come with me to see the Emperor!"
Gusalto didn't dare to waste a second and led the two siblings to the Throne Room as quickly as possible.
However, as soon as he stepped outside, he saw a large Wuyangyang of nobles blocking the doorway.
"Lord Gusalto, we..."
"Get the hell out of my way! Anyone who dares to delay my journey to see the Emperor, I'll chop him down right now!"
Gusalto wasn't joking, because he really did take out a Power Sword.
The nobles who had originally sought his advice were now speechless upon seeing the situation, and could only wait there.
"My lord..."
"We can talk about it after I return from the Throne Room."
And so, Old Gusalto led his two siblings to the Throne Room in a flurry of activity.
"Please inform the Emperor that I need to see him; it concerns the Father of Night!"
Father of Night?
"Since there's a reason for this, there's no need to announce it. Come with me."
Upon meeting the Emperor, Old Gusalto respectfully handed over the two Jade Tablet.
"Did Old Han carve this for you?"
"Yes, Your Emperor," Nobilia replied truthfully.
The Emperor handed the jade pendant to Malcador, Malcador recognized it at a glance.
"I did see Old Han carve these jade pendants."
When he first went on vacation to Nostramo, he visited Old Han's house, where Old Han was carving Jade Tablet.
Did he say anything?
"Your Emperor, each Jade Tablet pendant is in pairs."
"Besides the one we carry with us, there's another one in the City of Truth in Nostramo."
"Does the Evernight Legion also have such Longevity Tablet?"
"Yes, Your Emperor."
Hearing Nobilia's answer, the Emperor nodded in satisfaction, while Malcador shook his head with a smile.
Seeing the two men's completely different reactions, Renato was a little confused.
"Don't be confused, Little Renato, I'm just feeling a bit sentimental," Malcador said with a smile.
"A sigh?"
"Yes, I'm struck by how good Old Han is to his nephew and his students; he's really too attentive."
He personally crafted their armor and weapons, personally awarded them medals, and now he even engraves Longevity Tablet on them.
"Did he send you any message when he sent you back?" the Emperor asked.
The siblings exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat strange.
That's a proxy.
"Speak freely, children," Malcador said with a smile.
Do you want the exact words?
"Yes, those are his exact words," Malcador said.
Then they saw Nobilia nudge her younger brother.
Clearly, the older sister wanted her younger brother to experience being a bit reckless.
"Sister, I may be young, but I'm not stupid. Saying this could get me killed."
"I'm a lady, do you expect me to say it?"
"Go on, children, just consider it a casual chat," the Emperor said with a smile.
Looking at the Emperor, Renato's admiration for his Teacher deepened.
The Teacher was absolutely right: when Emperor wants to use people, human nature explodes.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
The Teacher will save me, a real man has to be tough!
"Ahem! Old Ma! I've had a great three-year break. Remember to come over for tea when I get back!"
Ta-da!
The Old Gusalto people were dumbfounded.
He felt that he was no longer the Old Gusalto.
It will soon turn into Gusalto.
"That's definitely something Old Han would say," Malcador said with a smile.
Then Renato looked at the Emperor, and after a good mental preparation, continued to speak.
"Your Emperor, listen to me! We have a deal. If you dare to act recklessly before the deadline, I'll blow up the Throne Room."
Bang!
Old Gusalto fainted.
He was so frightened by his own rebellious son, who was so fearless and reckless.
"Father!"
"It's nothing serious, just a bit of a shock," a member of the Adeptus Custodes said as he stepped forward.
"Haha, he's quite polite," the Emperor said with a laugh.
Huh???
Is that considered being polite?
Renato was a little confused.
Because he changed how he addressed me when he spoke.
He called for the Emperor.
But the Teacher's exact words were. "Huangpizi."
"Don't be afraid, child. Old Han is always like this. He asked you to pass on a message to me. I'm sorry to trouble you."
"No... no, Your Emperor."
The Emperor looked at the two young men before him and nodded in satisfaction.
Old Han truly lives up to his Old Han, managing to teach two such rational and wise Mortals in this day and age.
It seems that the Dark Age of Technology that the Perpetual named Susan gave me can finally be put to use.
Roughly estimating, even if that person stops him from turning Old Han into Perpetual, it wouldn't be a problem for him to live for several thousand years, or even tens of thousands of years.
Hiss!!
Oh, right!
This time, there's no need to gamble.
The answer is right in front of you.
What nonsense about fate! His instructions are always right before our eyes, always correct and unwavering.
"Alright, kids, if there's nothing else, you can leave now. As for your appointments, Roboute has already told me. Once the procedures are complete, you can take up your posts."
After saying this, the Emperor hurriedly left the Throne Room.
At this moment, Malcador walked up to the two siblings.
Although they didn't know what the Chancellor was thinking, they could tell that he was trying his best to suppress something.
As expected, the Imperium of Man is not safe now; the Emperor and Chancellor bear more secrets and darkness.
"Children, according to the proposal from the Department of Justice, this is Amnesty Decree for the Gusalto Family; everyone on the List will be pardoned."
"After your father wakes up, give him this List to look at. I have to go now. I wish you all the best in the future, and remember to keep your Longevity Tablets safe."
"Yes, Chancellor Excellency."
Afterwards, the siblings took Old Gusalto away from the Throne Room and returned home, but their journey home was difficult.
There were simply too many people blocking the entrance, and when they saw the old lord who had fainted, everyone became extremely frightened.
"No! Old lord, what's wrong with you?!"
"The patriarch has only fainted and will wake up soon. Please wait a moment, everyone."
