Because of this news, Aaron Well, the mysterious psionicist capable of solo intergalactic teleportation, has become the focus of attention for many forces.
So far, apart from his name and his status as Katherine's fiancé, they know nothing about Aaron.
Even whether he is related to the Seal Bearer Makado is merely speculation based on a confluence of various factors, not a confirmed fact.
It's impossible for Katherine to become the empress and Aaron to be the emperor.
These rumors did not spread widely, but rather lingered in the shadows of the empire, and it was unknown when the truth would come to light.
The empire's system included holidays, but they were essentially non-existent.
At least when His Majesty sent her here, Katherine was still reviewing documents on the aircraft.
She was increasingly convinced that some conspiracy theories were true: the emperor didn't want his sons to be his heirs, so he chose himself.
Whether it was because he was worried that his sons were only good at leading troops but not at intelligence, or because he didn't want the Primarchs to suffer, or because one of his brothers became Lord of Man and they couldn't stand each other and started fighting, bringing turmoil to the Empire—that remains unknown.
But you should find someone who can do the work; I'm just an ordinary person.
Katherine was somewhat frustrated. She had previously thought that it was nothing more than ruling an empire, and she herself had provided many suggestions for her father's rule in Olympia.
It wasn't until she saw the Empire, and the Empire in its rising phase, that Katherine felt her scalp tingle.
When she left the aircraft and entered the wheat field, Katherine took a moment to wash her face by the river to make herself look less haggard.
She had a vague idea that the person the emperor wanted her to see was most likely Aaron's birth mother, one of the genetic sources of the Primarchs.
The woman turned her head and smiled, and in that instant, even the false sun in the sky seemed to lose its luster.
She wiped her hands on her apron and stepped out from behind the fence:
"Welcome, my child. Just as Anda asked you to call him father, you can call me mother directly."
Erda had come to the side of the dazed Katherine, took her hand affectionately, and looked the child over.
They sat down at the stone table in the courtyard, while Cash stood far away outside the courtyard gate, shutting out his hearing.
"This place is simply a paradise on earth."
Katherine looked around, deeply moved: "It reminds me of my hometown. Why did you stay here? Although it's wonderful, I always feel like it's a prison."
“Even if this is truly a cage, I believe that His Majesty will grant you your freedom if you request it. The Primarchs also need your presence.”
Following Katherine's gaze, Erda shook her head and said gently:
“I made a terrible mistake, my child. I can’t even say ‘I don’t regret it’ with a clear conscience. I deserve this. I’m ashamed to face my children.”
"Perhaps staying here makes me feel much more at ease, Katherine. I am already very content to see you as a mother."
During her year of trials, Katherine came into contact with many secrets.
I already had a guess in my mind: the Primarchs being stranded outside and experiencing the cruelty of many worlds was perhaps the work of Ilda.
It's unclear what conflict this couple had that led to this situation.
Erda reached out and stroked Katherine's hair and cheeks, sighing:
“You guessed right, Anda explained everything to me, including those horrific, real scenes. He seemed to believe that as long as he showed it clearly, he could convince me. But as a mother, I almost witnessed those indescribable things being inserted into my child’s body.”
“I wavered. I believed that Anda’s purpose was to save humanity, and I also believed that he would stop at nothing to achieve this goal and torture my children. I have already lost the earliest ones, and I cannot lose those who were not yet born at that time.”
Katherine tentatively asked, "Is this why His Majesty is unwilling to explain his actions to anyone? He only needs tools that can obey orders."
(Emperor: Yes, I made things clear with that bitch, and she betrayed me. Who knows if my sons will betray me too after I made things clear with them?)
Chapter 465 Perturabo, who changed his class to Priest, and the strange demon Satan (3K)
"Perhaps only time can bring about the final result. Our only advantage over mortals is that we can wait until everything comes to an end."
Erda let out a long breath, put her hands on her knees and stood up. Although her appearance and body were still young, the signs of aging in her movements were unavoidable.
"I'll go cook. It'll be ready in a little while. It'll be a meal for our family."
Katherine was unsure whether she should go in and lend a hand; she had absolutely no experience in this area. She thought that perhaps the palace was the best place, where she wouldn't have to discuss things too much with His Majesty.
Cash, who was guarding the entrance, saw some newly delivered supplies.
One of the boxes even had a mark made of white scars.
When did the Fifth Legion make contact with this person who was trapped here?
The fact that it was sent here indicates that His Majesty has given his approval.
Cash helped inspect the supplies and move them into the yard.
Erda seemed to have anticipated the appearance of the white scar, and sighed, "After thinking it over, I still think the fifth brother is the most considerate."
Upon hearing this, both Cash and Katherine had their own plans.
Could it be that the war for the succession to the throne was also fought by Chagatai Khan, and that he had the support of the Primarch Mother?
The situation is getting increasingly chaotic. The parents should step forward to make a decision and quell the conflict between the brothers.
One was so busy at work that he couldn't utter a single complete sentence.
One, living in a secluded paradise, believed he had redeemed himself and felt unworthy to come forward.
We can't exactly let her quell the original body's struggle for the throne, can we?
Who is she? Does she even have the qualifications?
We need to get Aaron here.
Katherine felt a self-deprecating smile at her own thoughts, realizing that the only person who would listen to her was probably Petrie, and even then, it was questionable how much she would actually take in when it came to the succession struggle.
In a daze, Erda had already laid out the prepared meal, which she used as a way of showing off:
“My skills are not as good as Anda’s. When I first came here, I even used psionic energy to start a fire. But the taste now is much better than some of the things I remember eating. I can’t remember if it’s a real memory or another time. I always feel that there is another child with Aaron.”
Katherine reminded her, "Angron."
Erda suddenly realized, and said with a self-deprecating laugh, "Ah, I remember now, it's Xiao An. The food he made never tasted good. But I can't be sure if Xiao An really existed tens of thousands of years ago. Oh well, let's eat first. Aaron always says that no matter what problems we encounter, we should eat when it's time to eat, and talk about it after we've eaten our fill."
At the same time as Katherine and Erda's first encounter, Peturabo, who had helped Loga establish the perfect city, was somewhat displeased.
Because after the church was built, Satan did not appear as they had planned.
Some sacrificial rituals are required to summon it.
This task fell to Peturabo, who was to become a priest and preside over rituals to attract Satan to appear.
As soon as the demon shows its face, take off your priest's robe and go up and beat it to death with your fists.
Loka's reasons for persuading him were also quite valid.
He has his own reasons to pursue, and he will not succumb to false gods or other beings, nor does he deign to engage in such tricks.
Xiao Pei didn't have a clear attitude towards those supernatural beings, just like she did towards their father.
When things are good, he calls out "Dad," but when things are bad, he yells "Old man, come and fight me!"
The same applies to these demons; they merely feign piety and go through the motions.
These words angered Xiao Pei so much that the cables on her head overheated and started smoking.
Fine, fine, so you think you can fool us common folk with your lofty aspirations? Even if it's to fool the devil, Xiao Pei was still very unhappy with Luo Jia's tone when he said these words.
It's like when the toilet at home is clogged, only you can unclog it, because the other guys are either allergic or have OCD.
Standing before the church gates of this perfect city, Xiao Pei calculated the shadow cast by the cross. Just as it was projected as an inverted cross in the square, she donned those strange robes and began to chant and perform physical gestures according to the local rituals.
All surrounding strongholds have been occupied by the Iron Warriors, and the Word Bearers cannot get close.
After all, if this scene were filmed by the Word Bearers and presented before the throne of Terra, claiming it as evidence that the Lord of the Iron Warriors had violated the truth of the Empire and embraced the religion of the aliens, it would take a great deal of effort to explain it clearly.
The only one who wasn't Iron Warrior was Logar himself, who was forced to stay by his brother's side to prevent any footage from capturing both Primarchs together.
After chanting for a long time, the surrounding environment remained unchanged, and there was no sign of the demon about to appear.
Xiao Pei looked at her brother, who was staring at her like she was a monkey, with a displeased expression.
"Luo Jia! Explain yourself! Where is the demon we're supposed to capture?!"
Loka remained calm and smiled reassuringly, "Don't be angry, my brother. This is also to save the corrupted offspring in my legion. I care about it even more than you do."
"Perhaps the demons have already appeared, but we haven't observed them yet. This is our first contact with a non-physical enemy, so we need to be cautious."
Peturabo scoffed, "You're just obsessed with your own theories. I think the problem is simple: your approach is wrong."
Luo Jia feigned confusion and asked, "Then what brilliant idea do you have?"
Xiao Pei put her hands on her hips, looked around, and said:
"These abominable things need material support to wreak havoc. Since the human body inherently possesses its own consciousness, why would it allow an external will to enter? Naturally, it's when the body itself is wavering. And why is the body wavering—"
"Either they encounter insurmountable difficulties in reality, or they seek help from some supernatural or bizarre forces."
"I haven't heard of any demonic disturbances yet, which is probably because I didn't clearly state what I wanted. You wait and see."
Xiao Pei put the robes back on and began to focus on her goal.
The progress of these biological and psionic projection projects is indeed worrying, as they are related to whether the ultimate goal can be achieved.
The demon's voice, sensing the soul's difficulty and turmoil, finally emerged:
"What are you all perplexed about? There's no need for you to worry about it—"
The demon named Satan finally spoke; it had been slumbering for a long time.
The recent infection of the Word Bearers and the mortal army was merely an echo of a lingering curse.
Kepler is not a good place; it is too remote. From the moment it was born, before it had fully become a free demon or belonged to some realm of the Ancient Four, it fell into slumber with the destruction of civilization.
But now, finally more humans are arriving.
Satan vaguely remembered that in the conception he was initially conceived, it was mentioned that he was "the enemy of God".
(Adachi: It's all fake, all nonsense.)
Perhaps my potential can rival that of the four ancient ones.
It regained its appearance and form, becoming indistinguishable from humans, and even dressed in a style similar to that of ancient Terra.
It only has menacing sharp horns, and a demon's tail grows from its coccyx.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a pair of vertical pupils like those of a snake.
