The Wolf of Fenris's Ambition (1)

After seeing what Renato had taken out, Lion El'Jonson picked it up and looked through it.

"It is indeed written in great detail."

"After all, Professor Orikan is the most famous astrologer in all of Nostramo."

"So now we're still missing a guide."

"Guide?"

"Yes, that is, Curze."

At this moment, Lion El'Jonson couldn't help but think of his most humble and polite brother.

Since returning to the Imperium, he has spent most of his time at the Imperial Department of Justice. Now that they are all on vacation, he naturally wants to bring Curze along.

Moreover, Curze is the Grand Inquisitor of Nostramo, and many things become much easier with him around.

Should I contact the senior student now?

No, I'll handle this myself.

This time, Lion El'Jonson not only had to go to the Department of Justice, but also to the Administratum to inform Sanguinius and Roboute.

After all, the entire Civil Servant System of the Imperium will soon welcome its greatest master.

The First-Returned Son of the Imperium, the Centaur of the Emperor.

Horus Lupercal, the Wolf of Fenris.

At that time, Horus will be given complete control over military, political, and financial power.

They can also get some rest.

"Then I'll go downstairs and prepare my luggage, sir."

"Go."

Renato and Lion El'Jonson left the Departmento Munitorum together.

When Lion El'Jonson arrived at the Department of Justice, he soon met with Curze.

Now that the Anti-Corruption has ended, the Department of Justice is dealing with routine matters.

However, due to the Emperor and Malcador's vacation, Curze was unable to go to the front lines.

"Curze, stop for a moment."

"Big Brother? What brings you to the Department of Justice as a guest?"

"I'm not here to confess my crimes, brother. I'm here to ask if you'd be interested in being my guide."

"A guide? If you want to travel, you can just ask Rogue Trader."

"No, brother, although I'm going on a trip, my destination is Nostramo, so I'd like to ask you to be my guide."

"Are you really going on vacation?"

"If you go on vacation, who will do the work of the Departmento Munitorum?"

Now the entire Imperium knows that the Emperor and Malcador in Nostramo.

But nobody knew that these two old codgers disappeared after going to Nostramo, and they never replied to any of the Astropath's contact messages.

"Don't worry, bro, not only am I getting a holiday, but two of my colleagues in the Administratum are also getting a holiday."

"Is the Imperium about to collapse?"

"That's not the case, Curze. Someone has taken over our work."

"Take over our jobs? You mean someone conducted a massive Eleven-Choice Examination?"

"It's not Eleven-Choice Examination; it's a large-scale direct recommendation for entry into the Imperium Civil Servant system."

Which Legion is so cruel?

"The X Legion."

???

"Are you kidding? Ferrus Manus is clearly not that kind of person."

"But his Scions were so stubborn that he could only come up with this method of fighting poison with poison."

That's true.

Are you sure I can take a vacation?

"Yes, in addition to a large number of Astartes entering the Imperium Civil Servant system from the X Legion, one Primarch will also return to the Civil Servant system."

Primarch?

Could it be Magnus?

Or Lorgar?

"The Boss, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me, who's planning to come back?"

"It's Horus."

Upon hearing Lion El'Jonson's answer, a strange smile appeared on Curze's lips.

"So he's the Wolf of Fenris of the Imperium. Then I can certainly entrust these tasks to him with peace of mind."

"By the way, where is he now?"

"Soon. Abaddon and Aximand have already returned to the Vengeful Spirit. Given Horus's Great Astartes Supremacy ways, I believe he'll be back soon."

Meanwhile, aboard the Vengeful Spirit.

Abaddon and Aximand have successfully returned.

"Father, we're back."

"It's good that you're back. How was your time at the Administratum? Everything went smoothly?"

"It went very smoothly, Father. Admittedly, our initial approach was not mature, but after a while, we have indeed grown," Abaddon said first.

"Very good, then let's proceed with the next List of Civil Servant officials for our Legion..."

Just as Horus was pondering, Aximand spoke.

"Father, I have a bold proposal."

"What kind of proposal is it, Aximand?"

"Why don't you go directly to the Administratum? Or why don't you try to establish a certain voice within the Imperium Civil Servant system?"

Himself?

Horus was bewildered by the suggestion from his two Scions.

He only ever thought about sending his own Scions, never about going himself.

But after hearing what they said, it does seem to be true.

Sejanus and Loken, standing behind Horus, wanted to stop Abaddon when they heard his dangerous suggestion, but they soon noticed the unfriendly look in his eyes.

Then the two realized they had tricked these two guys, and ultimately chose to shut up.

"But I am the Primarch of the Imperium. If I go directly into the Imperium Civil Servant System, it will probably cause gossip among other people in the Imperium. And if I leave, what will happen to the war on the front lines?"

"Father, you are the undisputed First-Returned Son of the Emperor. The commander of the First Legion can enter the Departmento Munitorum, the commanders of the Thirteenth Legion and Ninth Legion can enter the Administratum, and the commander of the Eighth Legion can enter the Department of Justice."

"As the first Primarch to be found by the Emperor, why can't you directly enter the Civil Servant system and gain some influence?"

"Furthermore, with the Astartes and Primarch integrating into the Imperium Civil Servant service, the Mortals within the Imperium Bureaucratic System have come to accept this change."

Horus fell into deep thought upon hearing Abaddon's words, but his contemplation ended quickly. The Primarch's superhuman brain only allowed him to think for a millisecond.

"You are indeed wise, Ezekyle. You are absolutely right. I am my father's First-Returned Son. I spent those 30 years with him, and during those 30 years, he only educated me and raised me. I inherited his wisdom and basked in his glory."

"As his First-Returned Son and a role model for my brothers, I should rightfully enter the Imperium Civil Servant system and possess a certain status and power."

"This is not ambition or conspiracy, but to gain a voice for my brothers, for my Scions, and for the Astartes warriors on the front lines."

"At the same time, it is also to relieve the worries of my father, the great Master of Mankind, the Emperor of the Imperium."

"Abaddon, as my favorite son, you remain wise, and your advice is still as sincere and important as ever!"

"I've made up my mind. From now on, I will enter the Imperium Civil Servant system. As the First-Returned Son, if I don't go, who will?"
