The Imperium Killer's Grievance (1)

Common sense?

Common sense my ass!

If this weren't said now, who would know?

"What was the Emperor doing during this time?"

It's the Khan again.

"Hahaha, Khan, of all the brothers, Guilliman is considered the most ambitious, and you are considered the most likely to betray us."

"But in the end, Guilliman remained loyal, and you remained wise."

Even the Night Haunter had to admit this.

The Khan was far too lucid.

In fact, the Khan is asking this question out of necessity.

It is foreseeable that, in its original destiny, Horus's tragic fate caused irreparable damage to the Imperium of Man.

However, Khan's perspective on problems differed from that of his brothers.

He unified Chogoris and became its supreme ruler.

Therefore, he knew that in such situations, the supreme ruler had to step forward.

However, in the initial narrative, the Night Haunter only briefly mentioned the Emperor's whereabouts, and the Emperor did not play any role in Horus's series of misfortunes.

From the perspective of a ruler, this is unreasonable.

"I already told you, the Emperor is repairing the Webway."

"The Webway has flaws, doesn't it?" Khan asked.

"That's right, Khan, you always hit the nail on the head," the Night Haunter said with a smile.

Although this eagle from Chogoris speaks in a refined and literary style, his eyes and mind are very clear, and he can find the crux of any matter.

Just like his own Legion.

The White Scars excel at mobile warfare, and the results of their tactics often exceed expectations.

"So now it seems that, in the original destiny, the Emperor was unable to take effective action for some reason. What was that reason?"

The Night Haunter fell silent again, simply watching Magnus in quiet stillness.

"Why... are you looking at me like that?"

The Night Haunter is now truly acting as if he's checking off the head of the underworld. If he looks at a Primarch, it means that in their original destiny, that Primarch's fate wasn't so pleasant.

"I remember saying at the beginning that you had your spine broken by Russ, and everything you went through is important."

Magnus closed his eyes in anguish, but soon his eyes were filled with determination again.

"Speak, Night Haunter. Whatever I did in my original destiny, I have now evaded it."

"Very well, Magnus, then I'll tell you the story of this Imperium Killer."

Imperium Killer?

Oh no!

But it was too late.

"In today's world, do you remember that meeting after the Ullanor Triumph?"

"Of course I remember," Magnus said.

"In its original destiny, this meeting was supposed to be held on Nikaea before the Emperor returned to Terra, and it was also called the Council of Nikaea."

"Magnus once suggested to the Emperor the establishment of Librarian units, Khan and Sanguinius supported, as such Psychic Power units were indeed very effective."

"However, Russ and Mortarion were firmly opposed, so before returning to Terra, the Emperor convened a meeting in Nikaea to ensure that Psychic Power units would not have any impact on the Legion."

"At this meeting, the Emperor decreed that the Legion could only use two types of Psychic Power units: Navigators and Astropath; all others were strictly prohibited."

"But in our current destiny, Psychic Power units are not prohibited."

"Yes, Magnus, you've hit the nail on the head, and that brings me to my father," the Night Haunter said proudly.

"Indeed, my Uncle's approach was relatively more moderate."

In any decision-making matter, their Uncle would prioritize communicating with the various Legions, a stark contrast to the Emperor.

"No, Father's gentleness is only one aspect; more importantly, Father saved your Legion and made you more agile."

"In your original destiny, Magnus, you were truly stubborn, but in your current destiny, Magnus, you are very adaptable."

At the originally destined Council of Nikaea, Magnus kept talking about Psychic Power.

In his current destiny, Magnus never mentions Psychic Powers; he only speaks of Legion Sorcery.

Is there a problem with the Legion Sorcery?

"Of course, there's no problem. It's the same principle as the Rune Shamans in the Russ Legion, the Numerology of the Mortarion, and the Storm Seer of the Fifth Legion."

"Night Haunter, I need to remind you that the Thousand Sons' Legion Sorcery is essentially Psychic Power, but Numerology is a science."

Upon hearing Mortarion's words, the Night Haunter fell silent. He simply stared at Mortarion with a helpless yet mocking look in his eyes.

Why are you looking at me like that?

"I'm just looking at a hypocrite."

"You dare call me a hypocrite?!"

"Isn't that so? The Emperor hated Psychic Powers, but he had to use Psychic Power. He deceived his Scions about the Warp, and he was stubborn; he never explained himself."

"You're exactly like him, Mortarion. Of all your brothers, you're the strongest in Psychic Power Prophecy."

"But you never mention Psychic Powers, only saying it's Numerology. But whether it's Numerology or not, only you know the truth. You're just being stubborn."

"I'm not like him!"

"You're no different from him. The Huangpizi himself has low emotional intelligence, is stubborn, and hypocritical, and so do you. You're his Scions, so it's normal that you inherited his personality."

"It's no exaggeration to say that all of us Primarch brothers have inherited some of his personality traits, and at the same time, we also carry some of his visions."

"Just like you and Magnus."

"Why am I being dragged into this again?" Magnus said.

"Because in terms of extraordinary wisdom, you are exactly the same as the Emperor."

"My father once told the Emperor to do nothing, because the brothers had reconciled, the problems of the Legions were gradually being resolved, and as long as we continue on this path, humanity will have a bright future."

"But the Emperor wouldn't listen at all; he made all sorts of mistakes, which is why things are like this now."

"The Night Haunter is right, Magnus," Oll Persson said. "I told Neoth the same thing, but he wouldn't listen; he always manages to mess everything up."

"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, the Dark King's influence is very strong in his destiny, Dark King always manages to make a mess of everything," the God of War said.

The more chaotic the world becomes, the stronger the power of the Dark King grows. He will stop at nothing to achieve his own rebirth.

Clearly, as the Scions of Emperors, they also inherited this problem.
