On the Imperial Dream, in a hidden corner that no one can find......

A burst of vigorous-

The sound of opening the lunch box sounded, and Hades, who looked bored, silently picked up the spoon and prepared to start the meal.

In order to support the emperor, he has not eaten or drunk for nine days and nine nights, although this is completely out of the way, but Hades still deeply regrets in his heart that he wasted the opportunity to prostitute food for nine days.

He's got to eat it back.

But Macado was also hungry for nine days and nine nights, and Hades thought about the old man's body, and he was afraid that Macado would lie to him in front of him.

Hades quickly finished the day's meal, spoon in his hand, cheek in his cheek staring across from him—that's why he's here.

Layers of runes were carved on the iron fence, and the blackstone chain loops were wrapped around the iron fence, resonating slightly with the black domain of Hades, and outside the room, there were countless soulless people on guard.

The horns of its armor, which had been rudely torn off, revealed a broken section, and Magnus was the strongest of the top three in the original body, and only Vulcan could compete with it.

But now, in just nine days and nine nights, plus three days of imprisonment aboard the Imperial Dream, Magnus was already withered, and he was dying like a cracked fish, looking so thin that he was about to catch up with Mortarian.

Well, maybe Magnus just has a skin left, and he won't be as thin as Motarian.

Hades stared boredly at Magnus, who was now some kind of jailer, and he wasn't afraid that Magnus would see his casual posture—a white cloth was simply tied to Magnus's eyes, and the place where the original one-eye had been dripping with dried blood.

And Magnus obviously never touched psionic energy again after being taught a lesson by the emperor, so Hades was not afraid that Magnus would use psionic energy to spy on him.

Next, the Emperor will travel to Prospero with the Death Guard and the Space Wolf to determine the extent of Tzeentch's corruption, and Hades and Magnus will travel aboard the Emperor's Dream -

But Hades will act as Magnus's caretaker, not Prospero's burner, and he needs to make sure Magnus doesn't suddenly play tricks.

Although the emperor verbally promised Hades that he would let Machado take shifts with him, it was obvious that Machado obviously intended to let Hades eat this round of work, and the old man looked at Hades ominously and spoke,

“…… You can try to communicate with him. ”

Hades blinked innocently, he spread his hands,

"I don't usually talk to dead people."

Machado slammed the scepter directly on the ground, but the scepter landed on Hades's helmet and boots, and Hades hurriedly dodged, not knowing what he said wrong,

Makado gritted his teeth and spoke,

"Magnus is still useful, that's why my lord kept him."

Hades swallowed,

"You're going to stuff him into the horse—I mean the Golden Throne, to act as a large power bank?"

Makado frowned, how could Hades always feel that the old man was favoring Magnus, because they were all surnamed Ma and they were all psykers?

Machado seemed to know that once Hades was silent, he was definitely not thinking about good things, and the old man spoke directly, interrupting Hades's free divergent thinking,

"You're thinking too simply, Hades."

Machado whispered,

"We're not like you - I mean psionics aren't like you, Hades, and you're only going to analyze things based on logic and reality."

Hades blinked,

"Uh...... So psykers don't use their brains to analyze problems? ”

Machado went up with a stick, and Hades completely shut up at this point, so the regent could finally continue his conversation and explain psionic energy to this galaxy's first-class psionic Muggle,

"My lord, like me, and other good psionics, we don't just look at the logic of reality, there is a subspace in this world, and psionics can judge the future by looking at its ripples - and this is often far more accurate than realistic reasoning."

Hades looked at Machado indifferently, which in his eyes was like guessing fortune by palmistry, but given that it really worked, Hades decided not to stimulate Machado,

"And what is the result of your reasoning?"

Hades said,

"I remember...... Magnus didn't follow his soul ......"

Hades's voice grew quieter, and his speech was muffled.

"Yes,"

Makado said calmly,

"He made a deal with the malice behind the Veil – giving a part of his soul."

Hades was silent, he looked at Makado and said,

"Then this shouldn't-"

He made a cut in the void around his neck with his hand,

Makado frowned,

"But it also means that he still has a large part of his soul that he can control."

"Can't we separate?"

Hades spoke, as if asking a retarded question, and Macado suddenly raised his voice, like a parrot that finally couldn't help but explode,

"You think psionic energy is such a simple existence?! He has made a pact with the Changeling, and our lord can only guarantee that he will not suddenly erupt. ”

So the incident returned to his original point, Hades blinked, spoke,

"Can't that kill him?"

Hades felt that the old man was about to start to twitch with anger, and he hurriedly made up for it,

"I just want to know why you took such a big risk to keep him, what made you have to keep a bomb that doesn't know when it will explode?"

Machado opened his mouth, he wanted to say something, but he finally became tired again,

He said weakly,

"My lord is gambling."

"What?"

Hades said that Machado had to open his mouth to explain this frustrating reality to him,

"Magnus's fate is not fixed, even if he is long since tied to a boat, but there are still many branches of the river, he still has other possibilities, and among the victorious branches of humanity, Magnus is indispensable - at least in the prophecy of my lord, the figure of the Crimson Sinner is not absent."

Hades took a light breath,

"I understand,"

He said

"In other words, the guy didn't completely fix Magnus's fate, it did it on purpose, and it wanted the emperor to follow him...... Uh, gambling? Or maybe it made a revolver out of Magnus, stuffed a few bullets into it, and let the emperor shoot with it. ”

Machado nodded,

"A superficial analogy, but you understand at least a little."

Hades spoke abruptly,

"I mean, can I use the Black Domain to change this section of the river?"

Macado shook his head,

"This is the main road to the fate of the whole human race, and maybe you can do it in the future...... But now ......"

Macado looked at Hades,

"You might as well grab a few more unlucky casting worlds and pray for you."

Hades opened his hand, he thought Kim and Kirkland were terrible enough,

"Aren't you afraid that it will stumble you? It controls a part of Magnus's soul, and it's the one who did it. ”

Makado was silent for a long time, and then the old man spoke slowly and tiredly,

"It also means that Magnus still dominates most of his soul, and he can still struggle."

"And...... Its power could not change the general trend that had begun to flow, and our Lord was watching the course of the river, and he would not do so without the certainty of victory. ”

Makado sighed,

"Hades, you can rest assured...... Our lord will never believe him, even if he obeys the prophecy, he will imprison Magnus by coercion, he will not be free, you don't have to worry so much. ”

Makado paused,

"The Lord of Humanity has made his decision, and he will make this gamble."

The old man looked at Hades melancholy,

"If you're really worried about this, Hades, just guard Magnus for me, warn him more, and you might be able to make him struggle less when we take coercive measures."

"Time is running out...... You are only allowed to guard Magnus during the time he clears Prospero. ”

Hades opened his mouth and saw that this was the top PUA, and in the end he took Machado's job, and Machado also let him seize the opportunity to work.

Seeing that Macado was leaving, Hades hurriedly spoke,

“…… Last question, how is the emperor? ”

Machado's departing figure paused for a moment,

"Oops, but he's used to it."

No, yes!
