Chapter 563: Fulgrim: I think I can sit on the Golden Throne!

~6 min read 1,084 words

Guilliman of course knew that Lion had long been resurrected.

Lion should have been completely resurrected and returned a few decades ago, when Saint Doraemon fell asleep.

But Lion did not come to see Guilliman, he did not even join the Imperial command system, and was completely acting on his own.

But Guilliman could not condemn Lion for this.

Because every appearance in these decades was reported to Guilliman by Guilliman's spies, so Guilliman knew exactly what Lion had done.

Lion and his mysterious warriors would often appear suddenly when the situation was most intense, most critical, and most dangerous. Once they appeared, they would reverse the situation and help the Imperial troops overcome the crisis.

If it weren't for Lion's free action, the Indomitus Crusade would not be as smooth as it is now... Guilliman had to admit that Lion did a good job.

Guilliman was even a little glad that Lion didn't come to see him and didn't try to control the Imperial military system.

Otherwise, the contradictions in philosophy between Guilliman and Lion might have led to very bad consequences.

In the final analysis, Guilliman himself was trying his best to avoid meeting Lion.

He really didn't want to argue with Lion.

But now it seems that it is unavoidable after all. Even for the future of the Empire, Guilliman has a need to talk to Lion.

Who knows when Lion will think it through and launch an Exterminatus on an important planet?

Guilliman rubbed his eyebrows, prepared the draft of the communication with Lion in his mind, and after preparing his psychology, walked toward the Anywhere Door lying in the Macragge's Honour, the Regent's office.

He put his hand on the doorknob of the Anywhere Door, and couldn't help but think of the things that Cawl sent to the First Fleet a while ago and entrusted Guilliman to test.

If those things really have the effect in Cawl's calculations, then the Empire can really be said to be getting better.

This thought injected some hope into Guilliman's tired heart, giving him the strength to turn the doorknob and enter the Anywhere Door.

The scene in front of him changed rapidly. Guilliman entered the Webway, opened and closed the Anywhere Door several times, and finally arrived at the Red Tear, the flagship of Sanguinius, where this small meeting was held.

Pushing open the Anywhere Door, Guilliman only felt bright light projected over.

Unlike his office, the meeting room prepared by Sanguinius was much brighter, more spacious, and more comfortable. The surrounding walls were all marble from Baal, carved with Sanguinius's angel patterns, Lion's lion marks, Saint Doraemon's figure, and a double-headed eagle with wings spread.

Guilliman walked out of the door and cast his gaze into the meeting room. The other four were already there.

Guilliman saw Sanguinius. That gentle and beautiful face was looking at Guilliman with a light smile, and a pair of eyes flashed with interesting brilliance.

Whenever he saw Sanguinius, Guilliman always felt that the fatigue in his body disappeared very quickly, because as long as he saw Sanguinius, Guilliman would feel that he was not alone, and there was another brother helping him support everything.

Guilliman saw Saint Doraemon. That mortal-like face had not changed from a few decades ago. The corners of his mouth always hung a somewhat playful smile, and his eyes often carried a smile, but for some reason, Guilliman faintly sensed that his eyes were a bit numb, as if he were not surprised at all by everything happening in front of him.

For a moment, Guilliman even faintly felt that Zhou Yun had become a bit like the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang... But this feeling flashed away, as if it were just Guilliman's illusion.

Seeing Zhou Yun return safely, Guilliman couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, at least he didn't really become the same as the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

Subsequently, Guilliman saw Lion El'Jonson. That lion face that could scare mortals to death in the past now seemed a bit gentler, as if his face was a bit older, and his beard covered most of his face.

Guilliman had already prepared his psychology. When he saw Lion, his mood was quite calm and was not affected by some memories of the past in his judgment. Instead, he politely nodded to Lion... It's just that Lion's eyes looking at Guilliman were a bit pitiful. I don't know what he is pitying?

Finally, Guilliman saw Fulgrim. That face under the white hair was still as handsome as before. Maybe he was arrogant and frivolous, but Guilliman had to admit that he was the most friendly to mortals among the brothers, and he was the one who made people see at first sight...

Wait?

Who?

Fulgrim?

Fulgrim!!!

Scorching roar rose from the spine, straight to Guilliman's brain.

He silently advised himself to be calm, but looking at Fulgrim's handsome face, looking at the arc of his thin lips slightly raised, looking at the violet eyes that always hid some mockery, Guilliman felt that his neck was faintly painful, and felt that the anger could not be curbed.

"Guilliman, my dear brother, it's really happy to see you. I don't know if you have become more interesting after ten thousand years?" Fulgrim said to Guilliman with a smile.

"Fulgrim!!!!!" Guilliman let out a roar that was almost a beast. At this moment, he was simply more like a wolf than Russ.

His speed was very fast. The Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Sword was almost drawn out in an instant. The surging burning Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's fire drew a scorching arc in the room. The blade came to Fulgrim's neck in the blink of an eye——————

*Thud!!! *

A muffled sound rang out. Lion El'Jonson raised the kite shield in his hand without changing his expression, easily blocking Guilliman's sword.

"Lion!!!" Guilliman's anger was finally completely unstoppable. He looked at the Lion and asked in a low voice: "Are you going to shield this traitor?"

"I hope you were as angry at the traitors on your own planet back then." Lion El'Jonson said in a cold voice.

Back then, in order to kill Curze, Lion had attempted to perform an orbital bombardment on Macragge, but was stopped by Guilliman. This is one of the main contradictions between the two.

"Traitors should be killed, but sacrificing the lives of innocent people is another matter." ===== CHAPTER 564 =====
