A Little Secret

"After the Salamas Expedition ended, I was eventually trapped on the Unyielding Truth by Lion El'Jonson and taken to Macragge with him."

"It was at this time that the Eighth Legion also experienced disagreements. Shen was undoubtedly calm, rational, and loyal."

"His initial plan was to unify the Legions and then find me, but that bastard Tattoo-faced Earl tried to seize power."

"He succeeded. Shen died. The Nightfall was then in the hands of the Tattoo-faced Earl, and later it changed hands until it came into the possession of Sandamel, but after that, there was no further news."

"And then there's Talos, the Soul Hunter of the Eighth Legion. He was the only one who could potentially rebuild the Legion after the leadership of the Eighth Legion was vacant, but he was assassinated because of a Prophecy by the Aeldari."

"Phew! The story of the Eighth Legion has come to a complete end."

"However... Sevatar, hehehe, according to that Old Cured Meat sitting on the throne, you seem to have been imprisoned by the Dark Angels in the Rock Monastery."

"What? Sevatar's been imprisoned? With the First Legion alone? Are you out of your mind again?" Impetus said.

As Assault Master for the Council of the Long Night, he had sparred with Sevatar countless times.

Furthermore, with the time reversal Necron Technology, their sparring matches are all about killing each other.

That's why Impetus knew how strong Sevatar was.

Did they arrest Sevatar?

Joke.

Sevatar alone could defeat everyone in the First Legion except the Primarch; Valdor was no match for Sevatar!

How could those kittens catch Sevatar?

Are you kidding me?

"Cough cough!"

"Lion, would you like some candy?" Aequus took out a throat lozenge.

Lion El'Jonson didn't say anything, but just glared at Aequus.

That kid is great in every way, except he's too straightforward and doesn't know how to read the room.

"Given my personality, there must have been some unavoidable reason that made me give up the resistance," Sevatar said.

"That's right, Sevatar gave up the fight because of a little Astropath girl."

"To put it another way you can understand, Sevatar likes little girls."

"Oh~"

"Night Haunter, this is slander!" Sevatar glared at the Night Haunter, who had just accused him of being a lolicon, his eyes blazing with fury.

"I remember when I first met the Eighth Legion, who chose the pink packaging?" Shen asked with a smile.

"Shen! You're a cultured man, can you please stop smiling so lewdly?"

"What kind of talk is that? I've studied the Spring and Autumn Annals."

"Haha, that's great! The Eighth Legion is really good now!"

Looking at these familiar yet energetic people, the Night Haunter couldn't help but smile.

If only I could go back, and if only I could pack them up and take them with me when I go back, that would be wonderful.

Moreover, he treats these people like brothers, which seems like a good thing.

Upon realizing this, the Night Haunter changed his tone for the first time.

"Alright, alright, guys, now let's talk about some little secrets that nobody else can hear."

Upon hearing that the Night Haunter was about to reveal a secret, everyone present fell silent.

This is a crucial step in their understanding of the original world, and they cannot afford to be distracted.

"After all that, we've finally arrived at my second favorite part."

"And what about your favorite part?" Animus asked.

"Of course, it's the Siege of Terra," the Night Haunter said with a smile.

Although he said it with a smile, his gaze would occasionally drift towards Dorn.

This made Dorn of leisure throughout, start to feel nervous.

Could something have happened Siege of Terra?

"Alright, we were just talking about Roboute activating the Pharos Lighthouse, and then the First Legion arrived here."

"However, in those turbulent times, it was difficult for them to trust each other, and under such circumstances, both of them kept secrets from their brothers."

"For example, Lion El'Jonson took me with him, while Roboute picked up Vulkan."

"Found it?" Vulkan asked, wanting to confirm that the Night Haunter was not mistaken.

"Yes, my brother."

Night Haunter spoke, he descended the steps for the first time and stood before Vulkan, at the same time drawing a knife.

"Take it."

"What's going on?" Vulkan frowned.

"In our original fate, I tormented you, I used every cruel torture to torment you, I wanted to kill you."

"But you inherited the Perpetual of the Emperor; you cannot be killed."

"By sheer chance, you were transported to Macragge and picked up by Roboute."

"Sevatar was right, my Prophecies and madness stemmed from my cowardice."

"My acceptance of the assassination attempt by the Assassins 'Officio Assassinorum because of the Prophecy was also a sign of my cowardice."

"This time, I want to be tougher."

"You may judge me for the crimes I have committed."

The Night Haunter handed the sword to Vulkan.

Vulkan simply looked at the Night Haunter.

Because of Han Mingxuan's existence, Vulkan already knew about his own traits, and now the Night Haunter's words only confirmed this.

Vulkan looked at the knife, picked it up, and then put it back.

"Your original fate had nothing to do with me, but as your brother with the same blood, I've seen the changes in you, and I'm happy for you."

"If you want to face it, then wait until you go back and truly confront who you really are."

"Go back? Whether we can go back is another matter entirely, and even if we do, I might not be able to find you."

"There will always be an opportunity," Vulkan said.

The pen his Uncle gave him is his biggest secret, and he has never told anyone about it to this day.

Vulkan also understood that only he, as a Perpetual, could withstand the consumption of the pen.

"Thank you for your kind words," the Night Haunter said with a smile, sheathing his sword.

He walked back up the steps and continued his conversation.

"Back then, Macragge was nothing short of a complete mess."

"An enraged Lord of Drakes, a madman of Nostramo, wreaks havoc in Macragge."

"According to the law that chaos only gets worse, the four Primarch weren't chaotic enough, so the Human Mystery Cult joined in."

"Human Mystery Cult?" Roboute said.

"Yes, they are all Perpetual, and their ideology is to destroy the Warp and save the Milky Way Galaxy."

"Another bunch of lunatics," Sanguinius said.

"That's right, they were instrumental in the Horus Heresy, and A Fa joined the Heresy faction because he listened to their slander."

This explains why A Fa poisoned the baby ravens.

"By the way, the Human Mystery Cult's original idea was to exterminate humanity and also destroy the Warp Gods who relied on humanity. Vulkan, as the gatekeeper of the Emperor, was their assassination target."

"However, the Perpetual in charge of the mission wasn't stupid, so he used all his power to kill Vulkan, then destroyed the weapon that could have killed Vulkan, and I was also repelled by him."

"After all this was over, Roboute and Lion El'Jonson were finally able to sit down and talk. Although they had very different personalities, they both agreed that a strong organization was needed to unify all forces after this incident."

"Perhaps this is the magic of fate; Sanguinius and his fleet appeared at just the right moment."

"It was precisely because of Sanguinius's appearance that the Imperium Secundus truly had the possibility of being established."

"After all, the idea for the Imperium Secundus was proposed by Roboute, and he can no longer hold absolute power, and it's even less likely that Lion El'Jonson."

"Then Sanguinius' appearance was the best option. However, Sanguinius was initially reluctant, but at that time, under those circumstances, Sanguinius had no choice but to agree."

"And so, the three leaders of the Imperium Secundus began to take shape."

"From this moment forward, the Unremembered Imperium, the Second Imperium in human history, has been established."
