Father and Son Reunited
"Father, that man is heading towards our fleet."
Seeing someone wandering around in the Warp without any protective equipment seems highly improbable to anyone.
No matter how I think about it, I can't help but feel that the other party must be a Chaos Gods.
Send me the video feed so I can take a look.
Sahar transmitted the image, Night Haunter only glanced at it before freezing in place.
It was him.
It was the man she had been longing for day and night.
A man who saves his own soul and destiny.
My own father, the greatest man in the world.
Father of Night.
"What's wrong, Konrad? Has your madness flared up again?"
Upon hearing Corvus's words, the Night Haunter turned around abruptly, staring fiercely at Corvus.
Caught off guard by the sudden stare, Corvus was a little taken aback.
Why are you staring at me like that?
"Quick, check me and see if there's anything wrong with me?"
"Something's not right? You're a traitor to the Imperium..."
Bang!
Before Corvus could finish his sarcastic remark, his eye turned black.
"Corvus Corax! I'm not in the mood for jokes right now. Tell me, what's wrong with me?"
After being punched by the Night Haunter, Corvus finally stopped his taunts.
"That person outside..."
Bang!
Another punch.
"Tell me! What! Is! Wrong! I?!"
Hiss...
Murderous look.
"It's... it's good."
"Good?!"
"Very good, nothing seems amiss."
Corvus could clearly sense that when he said there was nothing wrong with it, the Night Haunter's aura suddenly subsided.
At the same time, he also began to wonder, who exactly was this person outside?
Could it be some kind of Warp God?
It's incredible that the Night Haunter is so afraid of him.
However, before Corvus could recover from his surprise, the Night Haunter's next move surprised him even more.
Because he now saw the Night Haunter meticulously cleaning his Power Armour.
Although the Night Haunter polishes his Power Armour every day, keeping it gleaming, he now wishes he could just wipe off the Power Armour completely.
"Stop rubbing! Your Power Armour was perfectly fine before. If you keep rubbing it like this, you'll rub off all the paint. Then it'll look like layers of black and white. Do you think that looks good?"
Upon hearing Corvus's words, the Night Haunter felt inexplicably irritated. Just as he was about to clench his fist, Corvus suddenly dodged backward.
But upon closer reflection, what Corvus said seems to make sense.
"Yes, you're absolutely right." Then the Night Haunter shifted his dangerous gaze to Corvus.
"What... what are you going to do?"
"It's nothing, I just think you need to brush up on your etiquette, and your Power Armour is a bit dirty."
"Honestly, I should have let you go out and sunbathe first thing after I found you. You're as white as a ghost now!"
"Konrad, what do you mean by that? Speak properly."
"Am I not telling the truth?"
"You..."
"Father, that person outside the Flagship is getting closer and closer. He'll be on our Flagship in at most half an hour. What should we do?!"
Half an hour?!
"Sevatar! Sahar!"
"Arrive!"
"Immediately organize everyone for a strict rectification of conduct and discipline! If I see even a speck of dust on anyone's Power Armour in half an hour, I'll skin them alive!"
"Do you understand?"
"Yes!"
After giving the order, the Night Haunter took out a rag.
"What... are you doing?"
"Clean your Power Armour."
For the next ten minutes or so, Corvus fully experienced the fear of being dominated by the Night Haunter.
He could have hidden in the shadows, but after the Night Haunter awakened his Warp Essence, he had nowhere to hide.
No matter which shadow he hides in, the Night Haunter can find him; the Lord's intimidation field is simply unreasonable.
If the Night Haunter's madness stemmed from his ruthless killing, then Corvus wouldn't be afraid. However, the Night Haunter's current madness is a bit too normal.
This is what truly frightens Corvus.
That's why the Night Haunter's deterrent domain can capture him every time.
For those ten-odd minutes, Corvus was Night Haunter until he died.
During those ten minutes or so, he even wished that the Night Haunter would turn back into the ruthless madman he once was, at least someone he was somewhat familiar with.
He didn't recognize this Night Haunter at all, who was now so normal he was practically insane.
In the end, the Night Haunter got his wish and gave Corvus's Power Armour a thorough cleaning.
"Alright, next..."
What are you trying to do now?!
Get a bronze skin quickly.
???
"Are you crazy?!"
"Shut up!"
Suddenly, the Night Haunter produced an enormous artificial light source from somewhere, shining it brightly on Corvus and preventing him from running away.
"I think you've really gone mad!"
"Shut up! If you don't get a tan in ten minutes, I'll skin you alive!"
"You're making things difficult for me, you bastard!"
"Shut up and get some sun!"
Corvus now feels like the other person isn't trying to tan him, but rather to roast him.
"Konrad, can you hear me?"
Just as the two brothers were arguing about whether or not to tan their skin, Han Mingxuan's voice suddenly came to the Night Haunter's ear.
At that moment, the Night Haunter stopped all his movements.
With lightning speed, he took back all the tools he had taken out.
Immediately afterwards, Corvus watched as the Night Haunter adopted the most solemn and serious posture he had ever displayed.
"I can... I can hear you, Father."
"It's good that you can hear me, relax."
"Alright," said the Night Haunter. "Father, what brings you here?"
"I came to the Warp to take care of some business. Now that I've finished, I heard you were nearby, so I came looking for you. Do you mind if I come in and take a look?"
"Of course, no problem, I'll come pick you up!"
After the father and son ended their brief communication, the Night Haunter cast a dangerous glance at Corvus.
"What are you trying to do now?!" Corvus asked through gritted teeth.
"When you see my father later, don't say anything out of line, or I'll pull your teeth out."
"Cut!"
"Did you hear that?!" the Night Haunter said, then gestured with his fist.
Corvus could only reluctantly nod in the end.
Then, as Han Mingxuan approached the Nightfall Flagship, all of the Flagship's weapon systems were shut down.
Once he landed on the deck of the Nightfall, he saw a troop.
There was one person at the very front of the line.
His Power Armour was spotless, and a Primarch who looked very much like him stood beside him.
However, her face looked a bit sickly red, and it was unclear whether she was injured.
The situation is now quite clear: the one standing at the very front of the queue is the Night Haunter, and the other is the Lord of Ravens.
"Haha, Konrad, it's been a long time!" Han Mingxuan put away his Staff and opened his arms with a smile.
"Father!"
The Night Haunter flashed forward, rushing at a speed that even Corvus couldn't comprehend.
Now, the father and son have finally met again.
