Warhammer: I don’t want to become an evil god!!

"I suspect this accident involves multiple departments..."

Guilliman's hand clenched and unclenched repeatedly as the judge spoke.

An indescribable rage welled up within the Primarch, but he could not show it to these people.

After Garen and the others left, he could no longer suppress his anger and slammed his fist on the table in fury.

The last shred of hope in my heart vanished with the release of the investigation report provided by the judge.

The Fifth Fleet incident was a blatant man-made disaster.

"Such a huge loss! How dare those guys?"

Guilliman paced back and forth, so angry that he wanted nothing more than to catch the mastermind behind it all and smash his head in.

After a long while, he suppressed his anger and looked at Qin Yun.

“We must speed things up, Sage.”

"We can't delay any longer. Those damned bureaucrats deserve to die. They have seriously crossed the line."

"No matter how much the struggle goes on, the overall interests of humanity should be put first, but now they've all gone mad."

“I was originally thinking of giving them a dignified exit, but now that’s no longer necessary. We must investigate thoroughly and strike hard.”

Qin Yun nodded, agreeing to Guilliman's proposal.

"Then let's speed things up."

"You go to war, and then I'll take over Terra and start the purge."

Reform also requires skill.

If we keep forcing those who have already benefited from the system, it will inevitably drive them to desperate measures, ultimately leading them to choose a lose-lose situation.

In this way, the cost of reform would be too high.

As the art of war says, when besieging a city, a gap must be left unfilled.

The idea is to leave a gap in the encirclement of the enemy.

The purpose of this was to leave the enemy a glimmer of hope, thereby giving them the idea of ​​fleeing and causing them to lose their determination to fight to the death.

This same applies to the reform that involves numerous forces.

We must leave those bureaucrats a seemingly viable path to survival to prevent them from engaging in a fight to the death and causing even greater casualties to the empire.

Guilliman's departure for the expedition was the bureaucrats' "way out".

The original intention was good; it was all ruined by that 'damned saint'.

“I am now summoning Imperial Chancellor Jack. She has just taken office and can help you better control the current Terra Council,” Guilliman said.

"Now it's up to you, Sage."

…………

The destruction of the Fifth Fleet's USS Blaze caused a sensation across all levels of the Empire.

Even if the news was immediately blocked, gag orders were issued to relevant personnel, and the court screened out the person who leaked the information,

Yet countless rumors still circulate in private.

After all, the casualties caused by this incident were far too exaggerated.

The number of dead and injured is in the millions.

The resulting economic losses are incalculable.

The Unyielding Expedition was already shrouded in gloom before it even officially began.

Jack succeeded Tyrell as the new Prime Minister of the Empire.

He was so worried about this that he couldn't eat or sleep.

This young Imperial Chancellor was an assistant to the former Imperial Chancellor, Tyrian.

After Guilliman returned, Tyrell collapsed at his post due to overwork.

Tirian, the former Prime Minister of the Empire, has lived for over 200 standard Terran years.

He personally saw off his two wives, and his children entered the Ministry of the Interior, only to pass away before him and return to the throne.

He served as the empire's prime minister for eighty years, making him a pillar of the empire.

Even before the Great Raiders launched the 13th Dark Crusade, Tyrion had been dedicated to reform.

Send the Imperial Guard out of the palace to support humanity on various battlefields in the galaxy, especially the battlefield in Cadia.

He had stated that the presence of the Imperial Guard in the defense of Cadia would have been a better way to hold the place.

Tiryon had repeatedly advised the High Lords of Terra to take Kadia seriously.

Unfortunately, Terra's political struggles were too complex, and its response to crises was slow.

Moreover, many people did not expect that the Great Raiders would actually be able to breach the Cardia Fortress.

After all, ten thousand years have passed. The traitors who have fallen into darkness launched twelve bloody expeditions, all of which were driven back by the loyalists of the empire.

They naively believed that even if those traitors fought for another ten thousand years, nothing would change.

Tiran was among the first on Terra to realize that human civilization was in grave danger.

In order to defend the Cardia Fortress, he, as the Imperial Chancellor, gave many preferential treatment to Cardia's generals.

They were instructed to allocate resources and troops to various star sectors and to request support from warbands in different regions.

It can be said that Tirian played a crucial role in enabling the Empire to commit such a large number of troops to the Battle of Cadia.

In addition to these, Tyrion also persuaded Trajan Varochus, the commander of the Janissaries.

He was instructed to send people to retrieve the Sisters of Silence from various locations and to participate in the meeting to vote on the lifting of the ban.

Let the Imperial Guards come out of the palace.

Unfortunately, just as the meeting was being held to vote on whether to allow the Imperial Guards to leave the palace,

News of the fall of Kadia reached Terra.

Shortly afterward, the lighthouse went out, causing the Day of the Blind.

A series of events overwhelmed the already aging Tyrion.

He passed away not long after the Primarch returned.

Guilliman then appointed Jack as Chancellor of the Empire.

From the moment of his birth, Jack was groomed to be part of the imperial political machine.

She quickly got the hang of it, but always felt she wasn't doing it well enough.

Many people may think that Terra's bureaucracy is bloated and incompetent.

Only those who are in it know how fierce the competition is, beyond imagination.

Those who can climb to high positions are top-notch in terms of knowledge, strategy, and emotional intelligence.

In Terra, the most sacred land of the empire

Even an inconspicuous family may possess unimaginable wealth.

Outside, the ruler of a merchant dynasty possessing hundreds of planets might be of noble status, a 'great figure' worshipped and revered by countless people.

Even the courts and the Ministry of Justice have a headache dealing with these guys.

But in Terra, such 'big shots' are everywhere.

To put it bluntly, if you throw a brick out, you might hit a 'big shot'.

On the third day after the "Blazing Embrace" incident,

Jack received orders to go and meet the Primarch.

A large expeditionary fleet was deliberately subjected to a series of accidents resulting in casualties.

Regardless of the era, it's always a time of bloodshed.

Therefore, Jack was very uneasy.

Upon receiving the order, she immediately left her desk, which was piled high with documents.

He changed his clothes and tidied his appearance as quickly as possible, then hurriedly went to the palace with his entourage to pay homage to the original body.

When Jack arrived at the palace where the other party was located, he found it bustling with activity.

Everyone is jogging instead of walking, they're incredibly busy.

This made Jack even more uneasy.

This matter has blown up too much.

She couldn't imagine how many people would die because of this.

It will definitely be an extremely exaggerated number.

The Imperial Chancellor was led by the officer on duty to the Primarch's office.

As soon as I stepped inside, the massive gilded gate closed behind me.

The room had a high ceiling, and cool gray light shone in through the towering exterior windows.

Jack spotted the Primarch behind the desk immediately and quickly bowed to him.

"Lord Guilliman."

“No need for formalities,” Guilliman said. “I’m sorry to have summoned you in such a hurry.”

“This is my duty, sir. You shouldn’t apologize.” Jack said, somewhat flustered.

Then, Jack saw another person in the office.

He wore golden armor and had a pair of pure white wings.

His sharply defined features possess a breathtaking handsomeness.

It inspires awe and worship in people uncontrollably.

For a moment, Jack even thought that Saint Gilles had returned.

But her mind quickly discerned that this man, who bore such a striking resemblance to Saint Gilles, was none other than the emperor's saint.

He attended the grand return celebration with the original body.

At that time, Tyrande was still alive.

"Sage." She bowed to Qin Yun.

Qin Yun nodded in response.

Guilliman continued, revealing the purpose of summoning Jack.

"You are the gatekeeper of the Terra Parliament, responsible for guiding the agenda of the Parliament, finding ways to facilitate it, and ensuring that voting policies are implemented."

"Anyone who wants to control the council will inevitably have to go through you. Only with your help can they control the entire Terra."

“I’ll be at your service no matter what,” Jack said.

“No!” Guilliman shook his head. “Not to serve me, but to serve the saint.”

Jack looked up, his gaze sweeping over Guilliman and Qin Yun, a look of confusion on his face.

She didn't quite understand what that sentence meant.

“I’m setting off,” Guilliman said. “Although the Fifth Fleet has been damaged, the other fleets have completed their assembly. The Third Fleet will be the first to depart to confront Khorne’s Blood Expedition.”

"Next, the First and Sixth Fleets will also set off, and I will go with them. After that, the Sage will take charge of Terra, and I hope you can assist him well."

"Ah!" Jack's eyes widened.

She initially thought the Primarch was going to question the Fifth Fleet about their affairs.

The result, however, is that power is transferred to a saint?

"Prime Minister, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation," Qin Yun said to Jack, a smile on his face.

Taking control of Terra is incredibly easy.

He even wants to call back to the 30k era and tell Horus the good news.
