After stuffing the Kettle of Greed with the Dark Spirit captives he bought from Primus, Russell, who didn't have enough money, made an IOU and returned to the Krenna sector through the stargate in Cadia.

Of course, this IOU was not in vain, and as collateral, Russell failed to get the transcription instrument back. The artifact is still in the possession of Primus for the time being, pending the payment of the goods by the Bulletin.

Russell had thought that going to Cadia would delay him by at least five years, but because Primes had concealed the fact that the Stargate had already been completed, Russell had returned several years earlier than expected, which was good.

It's just that the dark spirits with a boatload of them sailing across the ocean always make him feel a little weird.

Well...... Triangular trade is a classic system in human economics, and it is a must-try.

"Talk to Medius before you go back to Falla, and then you will be ready to invade the Comoros, and you will need his cooperation when the time comes."

Russell turned the bow of the boat to Klentarina, passing by the famous resort planet Emerald Star, just in time to bring some cake and black tea to Grey Wind.

While the Kettle of Greed docked in the orbital harbor of the Emerald Star, a ship caught Russell's attention.

It was a naval vessel of the utmost luxury, with its majestic décor and the cathedral with its giant statue of the emperor, but what caught Russell's eye the most was the huge 'Ω' sign on the side of the ship.

That's the emblem of the Ultramarines, and the ship comes from Otlama.

"Since the Klenna sector began to import ships from the Far Eastern star field on a large scale, traditional fortress-type heavy ships have become rare here." Russell walked out of the dock and looked at the ornate battleship with some curiosity.

The décor is gorgeous, but it's not as big as the pot of greed, so it's not as pretty as my boat. Well, that's it.

Russell took the two sisters Ryvatien and Ryva Galen down the starport, this time there is a follower, you can bring more drinks and snacks, and make good use of the physical strength of the spirit race.

"It is a great honour for His Excellency Russell to be here again on the Emerald Star." The waitress said with a smile as she packed the drinks for Russell.

The waiter who received Russell was the same one he had last visited, and the familiar servant could bring some intimacy to the big man who came here, and the Medius estate was very good at grasping this detail, which made people comfortable. Especially for Russell, who is not very good at dealing with strangers of the opposite sex, it is even more rare.

"I saw a ship from Otrama docked in the harbor, did the Ultramarines send a representative to visit the Lion King?" Russell asked.

The waiter smiled and shook his head: "It turns out that even you have guesses wrong." The owner of this ship is not an Ultramarine, but the Admiral of the Great Otlama Domain, Lord Wagner Ebolon Sivitas. ”

Isn't it an Ultramarine, but an officer of the Imperial Navy? Russell nodded, picked up a nut and put it in his mouth, saw the curious eyes of the spirit sisters, and handed one to each of them.

"Don't have any unrealistic expectations about the taste, the physiological structure of the spirit race and humans is very different, and I don't think you can necessarily swallow something delicious." Russell got a shot ahead of time.

"Got it, master~" Revatien opened the lower part of the visor to reveal a small pink mouth, brought the nut to his mouth and creaked and gnawed like a rodent.

It's actually a spiritual slave girl...... It turns out that His Excellency Russell is not pure-hearted, but clean-minded, and only eats his own home. The waiter on the side thought to himself.

Russell didn't know that his image here had quietly changed, and he just waited for the snacks to be packed while looking out at the plaza through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Revagalen closed his visor back and looked in the direction he was looking, only to see a crowd of men dressed in navy uniforms, state church ceremonial uniforms, and Inquisition costumes swaggering through it.

"At the head of the line is Marshal Wagner, who has just enjoyed three days of relaxation on the Emerald Star with the priests and Inquisitors next to him, and is now preparing to travel to Klentarina to meet Lord Ryan El Johnson."

The waitress duly explained, "The original body was too busy holding a tactical meeting for the current situation to be summoned immediately...... Ah, they're coming this way, is Marshal Wagner going back to Otlama with some Emerald Star specialties too? ”

Russell frowned slightly, and the blonde man who was about 1.9 meters tall, with a hooked nose, one deep eye, and a bullet mark on his chin opened the door and walked in.

This is the Admiral of Otlama, Wagner Civitas.

…… No, he shouldn't be 1.9 meters tall. Russell noticed a subtle incongruity between Wagner's walking posture and the proportions of his upper and lower legs, apparently adding a heightened accessory to the inside of the boot.

Walking in the door, Wagner snorted lightly, because the maids in this court room were helping Russell pack drinks and snacks, and did not immediately assign people to receive them, and actually let the honorable admiral open the door by himself.

The waitress beside Russell also realized this, and she hurriedly stopped what she was doing, crossed her hands in front of her lower abdomen, and stood with her head bowed silently. Be prepared to be punished or even killed.

Not all big names are as good-tempered as Russell, and it is the luck of a waiter's life to receive a good guest to get along with.

Seeing that Wagner seemed to have a tendency to ask for guilt, Russell stepped forward and blocked the astringent and trembling attendant: "Presumably you are the famous Marshal Wagner, I have admired the name for a long time, and I am honored to meet you here." ”

"You are?" Wagner frowned.

"Russell, Russell Astalti." Russell smiled lightly: "I think my name still has some popularity. ”

The corners of Wagner's eyebrows twitched slightly.

Is the only plenipotentiary spokesperson of the star bomber, it is true that there is some popularity, and at present, there is no one in the star area who is connected to the stargate network who is not trying to find a chance to curry favor with this guy. I didn't expect to run into it here.

"Fortunately, I've been hearing the name of His Excellency Russell for a long time, and I've been looking forward to meeting you, but I didn't expect it to be here." Wagner's tone is gentle, and his choice of words is very polite.

Although in his heart, he has long regarded the Bullet Star as a mortal enemy that must be eliminated, but how can Wagner be a willful man to take up the post of Admiral in the elite atmosphere of Otrama. He knew that his relationship with Russell could not be stiffened now.

To start a war with the Bullet Star, at least after enlisting the support of the Lion King and the Dark Angel.

According to Wagner's investigation, the Bulleter and the Dark Angel have a rather unpleasant past, and the Bulleter even wiped out the two subgroups of the Dark Angel with his own hands, but the deeper things are not something he can find out.

But what is certain is that as long as the dark angels are brought over, with the support of the emperor's divine heirs, great things can be expected.

Now, let's have a good time with this guy first.

Wagner smiled and shook Russell's hand, smiling sheepishly.
