The morning star rises, the twilight star hangs low, the nightingale sleeps, and the flowers bloom. The sky was once again darkened by the rosy dawn, the blood-colored chasm temporarily obscured by the bright light of the planet's atmosphere.

Eventually, it is unknown what the Black and White Border Collie and his noble elder brother had talked about that day in the Twilight Garden of Avalons Silvermoon Palace.

But what was later known from a handful of top-secret documents was that the lion was not alone when Leon El Johnson left the arch of the ancient glass and wood of the Twilight Garden.

The black-and-white creature with its long white mane marched side by side with him, and although the lion princes shouted again in low rage, the lion himself told the sons and his guard of honor an order that was even more difficult for them to accept.

"There is no need to worry about his reliability or my safety, for from now on you must regard him as my own," the green eyes of the Lion King stared into each person's eyes or eyepieces, making sure that the meaning of his words and his completely clear will could be transmitted to the hearts and minds of the listeners. "Do not be disrespectful or doubtful, but follow his instructions as I do my word."

"With all due respect, Your Highness," was the first to speak, still the Knight Commander Kai, who stared at the back of the sheepdog's head, his fingers moving back and forth on the hilt of his sword, and it was evident that the fact that he was frozen in place at the sight of a black and white dog had since become an indelible stain on the life of the proud peacock-like member of the Celestial Army—mainly because three of his comrades, two mortals, and the Lord of the First Army were present to witness the whole process. "How do we understand a ...... Dog? I suppose this must be a dog, Your Highness, how shall we follow his instructions, and perhaps teach your sons with the wisdom you have accumulated over the years? ”

The others didn't echo Kai's slightly exaggerated question, but the subtle looks on their faces also explained their attitudes.

"In the first place, it seems that you are now so good-natured as a kind grandfather that these sons of yours can speak like this before you without worrying about their heads; Secondly, I didn't know that there was a peacock among your heirs who was so suitable for dyeing his hair all white. ”

A majestic voice rumbling like a summer ocean thunderstorm echoed mockingly under the sandstone dome of the corridor, and the lion's face showed an indescribable "Didn't we say you should stop talking yet?"

The Knight Commander leaped back with agility disproportionate to his sheer size, his toes aimed at his target with precision, and at the same time drew his power sword, and the sound of breaking positions literally rang out.

"What the hell are you!!" "How the hell did you confuse the lion of Caliban?" he asked alarmedly. Let him vouch for his honor as an alien like you? No, I don't want to know, I think I should knock you down first-"

The sound of Crimson's Whispering Plasma Gun charging also sounded "at the right time", indicating that he didn't mind repeating a proper shot from the side.

Of the four Dark Angels, only Zabriel remained in the sheath, but his actions seemed to be motivated more by trust in the Lion King and his natural cautiousness.

"Watch your words, boy." The dog curled up his big fluffy tail with a white tip, "Leon, you don't mind if I warm up with your lovely sons, do you?" ”

“…… There are very few sons I can find today. ”

The four-legged canine's familiarity, casualness, and egalitarian address to the Lord of the First Army made the rest of the group suspicious, and Afoka placed a hand on Lohawk's gun-wielding arm.

"Aha, okay, I see," the dog bared out one of his canine teeth, which seemed to be a bloodthirsty smile, "dare to challenge me, boy, there hasn't been such a reckless man in many years, and it's an honor for you to be able to fight me today!" ”

Next, everyone present had the opportunity to witness the whole process of how an unarmed and pampered black and white pet dog used his snow-white paws to beat a knight commander of the Celestial Army who had fought in the Randan War.

The big sword can't rub the dog's body at all, and some people may say that it's normal to wipe the tip of the hair, but the problem is that the dog seems to be able to completely predict the opponent's movements and appear in an impossible position, and Kai's superb pace and seasoned sword moves are almost in tune with the rhythm of what he is doing with this dog.

His armored reactor groaned in its overwhelm as the pad of the dog's hind paws slammed into Kai's back again, and then - the thing - an ancient reactor that had worked well for centuries of wandering - finally coughed up a bit of fire and ozone - and stopped.

The Knight Commander's movements inevitably have a delay of a few microseconds due to the shutdown of his power armor's energy, which may be imperceptible to both the Space Marines themselves and their enemies, which is already very powerful, but Pertura will say-

"It's too slow! Knight Commander Kai! The shepherd's dog-scented meat pad kicked on his face, and the smell was so rich and thick that the rough plush meat pad covered the unfortunate man's mouth and nose with such a hot and accurate sound, and the strong dog smell directly hit Astarte's enhanced taste detection nerves, and later Kai described it as "I really felt like I saw all my brothers I knew turned into dogs and stepped on my face in an instant" - and then the huge impact made his strengthened cervical vertebrae make a terrible clicking sound, and Kai was kicked out by someone with armor, It didn't stop until it hit the wall, and the weathered sandstone debris at the top fell on his black armor.

Afoka rushed forward, and Scarlet Whisper stood vigilantly at gunpoint between the upright dog and his uncertain brother, and it was clear that the three of them had been working together for a long time.

The male lion turned his gaze directly to the one who sat down and began, opened his long mouth, spit out his red tongue and began to gasp for breath - brother.

Oh my God, Leon Eljonson thought again about the ultimate of the universe and the meaning of life, father, why do you give us so many possibilities and so ...... Brothers? Even the shortcomings you left us with are less depressing than the remnants of an old empire full of ignorance and god-worship.

"First of all, I spared his life, secondly, I was able to knock his skull out of the spine with the spine in the first blow, and finally, that's how dogs sweat, Leon, you better get used to it, and if you don't get used to it, you can arrange for me to have two servants follow me and mop the floor for me whenever and wherever I want, and I'm glad to see that—especially if you can arrange two Dark Watchers—"

"Ahem, what's the matter, I'm going to sweat when I hit one of my heirs? P – Cademo. ”

"Then how many can you fight at a time like this?" The dog mercilessly returns the color.

Then he immediately said, "Okay, if you want to have a coffee and talk, you can do that, we have to go to the shuttle now." ”

"That's right," Leon turned to his sons, Kai's vital signs, though unconscious, but stable, and the lion let his guard down a little against Perturabo, "Come on, we still have a naval battle to fight." ”

Wail.
