He promised to become a knight, but what the heck is Astartes?

Welcome to Warhammer 40

[I must say, you are truly a lucky one. Your absolute loyalty caught the Emperor's attention, and after his death, he summoned you to the world of Warhammer 40.]

This is a world filled with the roar of chainswords, the tremors of psionic energy, interstellar wars, and the rampage of warp gods!

[That sounds dangerous, doesn't it!]

So if you want to save your life, then strive to become an Astartes!

"???"

Luo Xia was also taken aback when he saw the transparent interface information that suddenly appeared in front of him.

what's the situation?

Is this my own cheat code?

But wasn't I supposed to have transmigrated into a world of swords and magic? What the heck is this world of chainsaw swords and psionic Warhammer?!

[Ding ding ding! Main quest 1 detected: Join the academy founded by Khorne!]

[Mission Introduction: Khorne, a Chaos God of War, actually created an academy specifically for training Astartes? Is this moral decay or the distortion of humanity?]

[And you, as a loyal subject absolutely devoted to the great Emperor, now bear a crucial responsibility!]

That is to join the Astartes Academy, founded by the Chaos God Khorne, for in-depth study! This will allow the Empire to gain a thorough understanding of its enemy and thwart their evil plans!

[Mission Rewards: 1 Blue Basic Ultrasoldier Potion, 100 White Ultrasoldier Combat Rations]

"Huh? The War Knight Academy was founded by Khorne, the Chaos God of the Warp? Or is it a school specifically for training Astartes?"

A huge question mark seemed to appear above Rorschach's head.

Why couldn't he understand these words when they were put together?

Is my next step to sacrifice my blood to the Blood God and offer my skull as a sacrifice?

Chapter 2 The Orphans of the Danix Family

Rorschach was very happy to awaken a cheat ability after transmigrating.

But Rorschach was very skeptical of this cheat ability!

Because he didn't travel to the Warhammer world at all! Can you say that any world with swords and magic is Warhammer?

What a joke!

Moreover, although Astartes can also be called knights, according to Rorschach's current memories, the knights of this world are completely different from those of Astartes!

Most importantly, if it's within the world of a novel, then being transported to a world of swords and sorcery would be original, but if it's transported to Warhammer 40K, then it becomes fan fiction!

What if this causes a misunderstanding?

Of course, Rorschach didn't mean to say that fanfiction was bad; after all, he most admired the authors of Warhammer fanfiction.

They even sincerely hoped that after their deaths they could return to the Golden Throne and become loyal Astartes warriors by spreading the Emperor's achievements!

This is an honor they deserve!

"Remember our agreement, even though you have pleased the god of war with your courage."

"But what if you can't graduate from the War Knight Academy and get into the Higher Knight University!"

"Then I will still pass you on as family property to Delan, and you will become his servant."

Just as Luo Xia was still pondering the issue of his cheat ability, his adoptive father's tone became indifferent.

Luo Xia frowned at the other party's words. What did they mean by saying that if he failed to get into university, he would become their property and be inherited?

Recalling the memories in his mind, Luo Xia finally understood.

It turns out that his adoptive father had four sons, and the Delan the other party mentioned was his legitimate son and also Luo Xia's adoptive elder brother.

If nothing unexpected happens...

According to the Baron's property inheritance system, Rorschach and his two good brothers are all the property of that cheap older brother.

Because of Rorschach's status as an illegitimate child, he could only be a servant, while his two other good brothers would be knights' squires.

"Damn it, does that mean if I don't get into some knight university, I'll have to become my cheap older brother's slave?"

Looking at the memories of his cheap older brother Delan in his mind, Rorschach almost wanted to curse.

Because the other party, being the legitimate son of a baron, truly doesn't treat Rorschach, this illegitimate son, as a human being!

Rorschach was made to do all the dirty and hard work.

It could even be said that Rorschach's status in the Frost family was lower than that of a servant or slave!

Of course, the most important reason for this is that Rorschach's mother was a servant, so Rorschach had no dignity whatsoever in this baron's mansion.

This is also why Rorschach chose to please the god of war during the Blood Ritual.

He couldn't stand being in this house for even a single day anymore!

Even when Luo Xia faced the Mighty Demon Ape, he was already prepared to die.

The so-called agreement with this cheap father was nothing more than his wishful thinking at the time.

"call."

Feeling the painful struggle from his memory, Luo Xia also let out a long breath.

It's so depressing.

"Don't worry, I will get into the Higher Knight University."

Luo Xia's tone also turned cold. After all, having received the original owner's memories, he had no feelings whatsoever for this so-called adoptive father.

"It doesn't matter, I don't care about that."

Upon hearing this, Garethson shook his head, then said in an icy tone:

"I have only one rule: you may not use the name Frost after you enter the War Knight Academy!"

This is to prevent you from offending the wrong people at the War Knight Academy, thus bringing crisis and shame upon your family!

Garethson paid no attention to Rorschach's cold tone.

He wouldn't have let the other party leave the Baron's mansion if they hadn't pleased the God of War.

After all, Rorschach is now his property.

Furthermore, Garethson scoffed at Roscia's dream of getting into the High Knight University.

Once they enter the War Knight Academy, they'll know how brutal it is there.

"Ha, who cares?"

Rorschach sneered, completely unconcerned about being removed from Frost's name.

It's just the name of a minor baron.

"That's the best."

Garethson nodded, then walked out with his hands behind his back.

As he reached the door, he suddenly turned back to Rorschach and said:

"By the way, as you know, once you enter the War Knight Academy, your family will no longer support you, so you can't take anything with you except this outfit."

After saying that, Garethson also turned and left.

"idolt."

Luo Xia also spat, not caring much.

He was surprised that he didn't start out in a low-status situation after transmigrating!

But now it seems those novelists weren't just writing randomly; time travelers are supposed to start with a low status!

Otherwise, how could Rorschach have shouted that line:

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential!"

"Now we just need to see if my magic touch works."

Looking at the transparent information panel in front of him, Luo Xia felt certain.

Although the system is abstract, as long as it can give rewards, it is a good system!

So Luo Xia got up and dressed without the slightest hesitation. He couldn't stay in this place for even a quarter of an hour longer!

Rorschach! He's going to embrace Khorne!

……

Adelaide is located in the northern border of the Holy Empire.

It was the month of the North Wind, and the cold wind was raging. Luo Xia was only wearing his thin clothes and was shivering from the cold.

"Young Master Rorschach, we have arrived at the War Knight Academy."

As the carriage slowly came to a stop, the coachman outside lifted the curtain.

Seeing this, Luo Xia shuddered and got off the carriage. The coachman sighed as he looked at Luo Xia's condition.

He then took out the cotton coat he had hidden under the seat and draped it over Rorschach's shoulders.

“Young Master Rorschach, once you’re in the War Academy, do your best and try never to return to the Frost family.”

"Old Neil, you..."

Rorschach tightened his cotton coat, also quite puzzled. He remembered that he had no connection whatsoever with the old Neil in front of him.

Luo Xia was somewhat puzzled by the goodwill shown by the other party at this moment.

"Miss is a woman with a tragic fate. She misjudged him. From now on, Young Master will have to walk his own path."

Old Neil looked quite grief-stricken and, under Rorschach's puzzled gaze, drove off in his carriage, his figure giving the impression of a hero going forth never to return.

"What does it mean?"

Luo Xia was a little confused. Could it be that his mother, who died from postpartum hemorrhage after giving birth to him, had some kind of unspeakable past?
