Warhammer 40: My Fiancée Fulgrim

No more.

Now you can believe it, Lion King!

If you still don't believe us, we really can't keep making this up anymore!

"If that's the case, then I'll give it a try."

"how should I do?"

“The procedure is very simple!” Forgrim said preemptively, as if afraid the other party would change their mind. “Our team of lyricists is waiting for you in that room over there.”

"I assure you, they are all excellent experts in literature and art on Holy Terra. You can talk to them first, and if it's feasible, we will arrange a performance immediately!"

Due to the influence of Horus's influence, and even the combined effect of the Holy Blood Angels' fondness for this drama, there are already more fan creations of the Centaur Gold Ring than stars in the sky.

With so many different creative content options combined, the Centaur Gold Ring has long become a "pre-made drama" in the eyes of creators. They only need to arrange the content they want to express to quickly generate the Centaur Gold Ring they want.

The lion's requirements happen to be almost perfectly aligned with the original content.

Both are in a deadly world—one is a desert, the other a jungle.

Both teams worked together to overcome external enemies—one against the Sirius Knights and giant beasts, and the other against nobles and nomads.

Both were guided by the human emperor to venture into the stars, and both were an excellent duo whose relationship was the talk of the entire planet.

My God, that's a lion!

It seems that the story of the lion is exactly the same as that of the Centaur Gold Ring!

It's even closer to the original than the versions of Horus and the Emperor, the versions of the Holy Blood Angel and Saint Gilles, it's almost like they just changed the name!

He himself is the perfect embodiment of the Centaur gold ring!

How could such a coincidence happen in this world?

"Sure enough, I was absolutely right back then."

"I was thrilled to be able to lure the lion into the Phoenix Grand Theatre," said Forgrim.

She recalled the vow she had made on Chemos.

One day, everyone will be obsessed with the centaur gold ring!

That's right!

One day everyone will be obsessed with the Centaur gold ring!

This goal is nearing completion thanks to her continuous efforts!

Under the playwright's brilliant pen, who seemed to have a wellspring of inspiration, and under the composer's pen, who was stunned and said he never imagined the Lion King would have such a little quirk—which inspired him to compose even more.

A visual and auditory feast that everyone has been eagerly anticipating is about to be unveiled.

As the lion walked slowly but powerfully to the center of the stage, the entire Phoenix Grand Theatre erupted in thunderous cheers.

It wasn't just the Caliban knights who cheered—in fact, they were so reserved that their cheers were barely loud. The real cheers came from Astartes, the Emperor's son, and his mortal servants in the arena.

Over there were countless mortal auxiliary troops, as well as crew members from the void ships and trading teams led by the merchant ronin dynasty.

There were also members of the Mechanicus, those red-robed mechanical boys who, while not interested in entertainment related to human dopamine secretion, wouldn't miss the opportunity to come and watch the lion show.

Many more people, eagerly awaiting the lion dance performance, were seated in various small rooms outside the Phoenix Grand Theatre, watching with anticipation as the lion on the projection screen displayed its performance.

Those who are able to get inside are all people who have paid a lot of money for tickets.

—Perhaps Fugrim didn’t need the money, but she certainly made a fortune.

It's incredibly popular.

In addition, the accompanying reporters all had their most expensive and advanced photographic equipment ready, and were always full of anticipation.

It's hard to imagine that this first-hand video recording of a lion performing on stage for the first time would be extremely valuable!

How many copies of this video will be sold in the human world, and how much unimaginable wealth will it bring him?

Ryan Aljonsen surveyed everything before him.

The expectant, eagerly awaiting crowds struck him as something entirely new.

This was a welcome the lion had never received before.

Wherever he went, mortals would bow and scrape before him with fear, afraid that they might have offended this seemingly gentle beast.

Instead of such a grand and energetic welcome and applause—which previously belonged only to friendly and gentle Primarchs like Horus, and seemed to have never been associated with Llane or the Dark Angels.

But it feels pretty good, doesn't it?

With that thought, Ryan opened his arms, and his voice, accompanied by the sound array broadcasting system, resounded throughout the massive Phoenix Grand Theatre.

"As a child who grew up in a jungle full of death, my childhood memories are nothing but endless nightmares."

"That was the beginning of the story for me and my adoptive father, Luther—"

The lights were dim. At this moment, all focus was on the central lion, thanks to the lighting technician's adjustments.

The music then began its gentle and soothing performance, gradually drawing the audience into the mysterious, deadly jungle of Caliban.

The lion seems to be a natural orator.

Although he had not previously demonstrated this talent, and his diplomacy with others was often handled by Luther—this almost indulgent help left the lion in a situation where he was completely unable to interact with people.

While experiencing social anxiety, they are also prone to overthinking and have many thoughts, making it difficult to make accurate judgments. They often rely on the guidance of those around them.

Fortunately, as a Primarch, he still knew how to influence the thoughts and emotions of others through his own power.

In other words, despite not understanding human nature, the powerful charisma of the Primarch still exists.

—Just like an emperor.

As the Emperor's eldest son, Ryan is undoubtedly the rightful heir and there is absolutely no way he could have been switched at birth.

Soon, with the lion's captivating words, everyone's thoughts were quickly drawn into the story.

After all, the Centaur Gold Ring is a staple of the Phoenix Grand Theatre. Anyone who is a crew member on the Emperor's Pride is very familiar with the Centaur Gold Ring; they've heard of it countless times.

But with the Lion's speech and vivid performance—even though the Lion wasn't particularly good at it—this minor issue quickly became insignificant during the performance, thanks to the assistance of the top-notch artistic team stationed on the Imperial Pride.

With the stage lights, music, and atmosphere, it was as if the lion had really led everyone into the dark forest filled with countless bizarre beasts, just as he had described, and they barely survived while being tormented by endless nightmares and fighting against the beasts.

Tension, fear, and helplessness.

That tension that made you forget to breathe filled the entire Phoenix Grand Theatre.

Until—the plot takes a turn when Luther, a genius knight from the human world, arrives in the jungle after hearing that a child will appear there, and encounters the lion.

Then, he began to teach the young lion from its ignorant state, gradually growing and becoming familiar with it step by step.

They fought side by side to form the Order of Order, carving out a niche for themselves in the perilous land of Caliban, surrounded by behemoths.

The tension transforms into a sense of exhilaration, thanks to the story, refined and adapted countless times by the best playwrights on Sacred Terra, making it naturally captivating.

Almost everyone was captivated by the Lion's compelling narrative style.

—Except for one person.

Luther.

He was restless.

Or rather, when he entered the venue and saw Ryan Aljonsen on stage, he should have fled the place as quickly as possible, for whatever excuse he had!

This is not a place where humans should exist!

Run!

But he can't escape.

As a Caliban Knight and the deputy commander of the Dark Angels Legion (in many ways even more like a legion commander than Ryan), his duties prevented him from leaving so easily.

Luther, you have to persevere.

There's even a beastly light-up artist who, at a crucial moment in the story, recounts Luther's encounter with a young lion in the jungle.

That bright white beam of light shone directly on Luther, who was standing in front of the audience!

Luther: "?"

Did you type it wrong?

He switched places with the dark angel beside him, puzzled.

That way there's no—

It's not that nothing's wrong.

The light followed him swiftly, even faster than he changed positions, without missing a beat!

Yes, it's you.

Surprised, aren't you, Luther?

This is also part of our Play!

Soon, under the spotlight, Luther also became the focus of everyone's attention.

Unexpectedly, this great hero who rescued the Primarch from the jungle also joined the Astartes Legion!

They are still alive and fighting alongside Ryan El-Jonson's First Army, battling in the north and south until now!

Moreover, he himself was in the audience of the Phoenix Grand Theatre, feeling the respect and love from the lion for him!

A legendary knight, and also the adoptive father, brother, and son of the legendary Primarch!

As Ryan explained the situation, everyone turned to look at Luther, who had a blank expression on his face, and couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

—He must be very pleased and happy to see the Primarch now, right?

Click click click.

The reporters, as if they had struck gold, pointed their other cameras at Luther and captured his restless face in its entirety.

This is precious information and must be preserved carefully.

Luther's expression remained one of utter despair.

Despite his outward appearance, he seems no different from before, still sitting there in silence.

But in his heart, he had been gone for quite some time.

Why am I still here?

Is it just for suffering?

Why didn't he run away on the spot when he had a bad feeling before the play even started?

Now he's the center of attention, and there's nowhere left to run.

Luther thought painfully.

Relief, happiness?

He just felt something was off!

Ryan, who used to be like a beast in human form, never once considering whether others would accept his proposals.

That was the Ryan he knew.

As the second-in-command from the Order of Order to the Dark Angels, Luther has always been cleaning up after Ryan's immature behavior until now.

Suddenly, this guy, perhaps corrupted by some unknown chaos, did a complete 180-degree turn in his mind and started expressing his care and love for you in the cheesy way Horus does.

That giant, nearly four meters tall, with a full head of blond hair and a muscular body.

what!

Too scary!

Just thinking about it made Luther feel the hairs on his entire body stand on end.

It was like listening to Rogdorn tell a collection of his own lame jokes, or like a Chaos Beast from Caliban performing a stunt dance in front of him!

It's enough to inspire awe!

But no matter how much he hesitated, it was no use; Luther had to stay here and watch the other side perform the entire show!

Ryan is such an awkward guy!

He wouldn't understand other people's feelings, and naturally, he wouldn't understand the meaning of embarrassment.
