If you don't look for Hades, Hades will come to you.

This is the truth.

【Terra】【Nine months ago】

In the dimly lit chamber, the Emperor groaned, staring at the shattered black stone sculptures in the room, lost in thought.

The variable is still him.

…… Cadia.

The Emperor pondered that as long as the [Deceased] did not die, then the primary target of Chaos would still be the [Deceased].

Once the Departed is truly sealed, then Chaos will have countless opportunities to turn their fate around.

Now, they do the same.

But......

What went wrong?

The emperor thought about it, he was good at using psionic energy to peek into the future, and when it came to the [deceased], he would often make misjudgments similar to Chaos.

The [Deceased] are not completely sealed now, which means that they still have a chance.

But......

With the power of Chaos, they are enough to confine the power of the Dead to the Eye of Fear if they are willing to cooperate.

Although it is not excluded that Chaos has disputes with each other, in matters related to the [deceased], Chaos has already made the greatest concessions and compromises to each other.

The golden candlelight flickered, shining on the emperor's expressionless face, and at this moment, he urgently needed to redevote himself to the construction of the network, this was the last step, and there could be no mistakes.

The Emperor stepped forward, and he walked over to the shattered sculpture of the [Deceased], staring at the blurred eyes of the sculpture that had not been carved in the first place.

…… The [Deceased], who devoured part of the power of the four gods and became more profound, was not confined to the Eye of Chaos.

The answer is already on the horizon.

"Extinguish the Torch."

The emperor said,

In the subspace, at this moment, the star torch in Terra is the most shining landmark in the subspace,

The brightness of the Torch was not as bright as the Lighthouse of Phaeus that Killman opened later, so it had to light up a star field, and the light of the Torch shone in every corner of the Human Empire.

That is, it is the most conspicuous one in subspace.

Something, will come in search of light.

…… The monster that lost control.

"Extinguish the Torch,"

The emperor spoke again, and the forbidden army behind him left in a hurry,

"Immediately."

The Emperor is silent, and the Torch is extinguished, which will mean that the Empire is back in chaos - but Terra cannot be lost, in subspace, it is the origin of humanity, and its fall means the end of humanity.

The Emperor sighed and shook his head.

It's not that he can't deal with the [Deceased], but even the Emperor is difficult to judge now...... What kind of monsters did Chaos feed in Cadia?

The emperor who originally allocated a part of the power of faith to feed the [deceased], as long as the part he fed was less than the power of faith he obtained, then the emperor was sure to suppress the deceased.

But at this moment, how much chaos is throwing at the [Deceased] in Cadia?!

Only in this matter did the emperor have extremely bad speculations.

Even if he could suppress the Dead, it would mean being injured - not to mention, the network was also a subspace device.

At this moment, injury means death—and the rest of the gods are eyeing it.

This kind of handicraft ...... This kind of technique of playing with fire, the emperor thought of it, and it could only be it.

The other gods won't allow it to do that...... It was intentional.

It was intentional!

Even though the candles were bright, a bottomless shadow shrouded the emperor's face, leaving only the golden eyes burning with rage.

At this moment, the Lord of Humanity seemed to feel the anger felt by the four gods when he fed the [Deceased].

Tzeentch !!

The roar of the Lord of Humanity sent ripples through the subspace.

Throughout, the Demon Lord of Changeability has been working with the Lord of Humanity to feed the monster, feeding it strong enough to hurt any of them—

This is the true purpose of the Demon Lord of All Changes!

Tzeentch, who loves change, even accepts the risk of dissipating himself!

If the Torch still burns, the shadow of the deceased could reach Terra at any time, but if the Torch is extinguished, the already precarious empire will fall apart even further.

No matter what the emperor chooses, the empire will bleed.

In a trance, the emperor seemed to hear the schadenfreude screaming from the subspace.

Dancing darkness surged from beneath the Lord's feet, the edges glowing with gold, slowly rising with the Emperor's increasingly angry breath...... Tzeentch ...... How dare it...... How dare it?!

As the Dead entered the Eye of Fear, the subspace at the Eye of Fear severed the Emperor's connection to his phalanges.

Of course, even if the emperor didn't lose contact with his finger bones, he wouldn't easily lose the power of faith anymore, and now he needed strength - just stuck at the point between that man and god.

He could feel that from subspace, from the future, there was far more violent power of faith than he had expected.

Something darker is expanding, how dare it ...... the [Deceased] belongs to humanity, it belongs to the Empire, only humans can accept [Deceased], it is ......

Powerful coercion began to descend, and the small chamber seemed to tremble—

The emperor closed his eyes, and in a moment, everything was calm again.

Don't be impatient.

The Emperor turned in silence, the generals on the chessboard unable to move easily, and he would rededicate himself to the construction of the network, which, once completed, would begin Terra's journey to other planets.

He left the Great Expedition in order to build a network, which was a decisive move.

It's just that......

I hope the rest of you are well.

【The Deceased】...... The emperor secretly thought to himself, wake up as soon as possible, wake up as soon as possible!

On the day of the fall of Hades, the torch was extinguished.

But Tzeentch was far crazier than the emperor had imagined.

【Hrafinkel】

[Fuck, my father is on top - you said the torch went out?] 】

The wolf king stepped forward with a curse, he frowned, staring at the porthole in disbelief, in the treacherous subspace waves, it was indeed impossible to see the direction of the star torch.

[What does the navigator say?] 】

The mortal crew stepped forward and told the Wolf King Navigator about the collapse of the Wolf King - as of now, the surviving ratio of their navigators was about ten to one.

The wolf king bowed his head and cursed again,

[Where are we close now?] The voyage has just begun, can we return to Terra? 】

Ruth held the axe at his waist, his fangs baring out, and it was not surprising that Ruth thought that he knew that there was a big problem on his ship, and that there was a chance that something would happen on this voyage.

But he didn't expect it to be Terra's side.

No, Ruth thought that the Torch would be fine with Terra's Father - it was most likely Father's plan, but if Father didn't inform him before they set sail, it would be something else happening.

The best coping strategy now is to return to Terra and see what happens.

But the navigator who was still alive told him that this was no longer realistic, and that his poor, crazy little crew needed to rest before they could recalibrate the course for the wolf king.

[Little one, where is the fleet close now?] 】

Ruth let out a rough breath, and the wolf king's keen instincts told him that the current subspace should not stay for long.

Unexpectedly, he got an answer.

Now, the fleet of Space Wolves is just anchored near Fenris, the home planet of Space Wolves.

[Okay, dock! Dock! 】

The wolf king shouted.

This volume is relatively short, and it is gone today...... I'll take a break......

I've been crazy lately, and I've been in classes seven days a week, and they're all professional and experimental classes that can't be watered, and I'm in a bad state, so please forgive me.
