The orphan-treatment policies, endless traps, and the fact that the Changer of Ways held a slight grudge against him ruled it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slaanesh wasn't a great option either, requiring too much personal sacrifice and potentially forcing him into group \"activities\" with the Prince of Pleasure and his cronies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The idea of such degeneracy was too much for Eden to stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nurgle seemed like the more popular choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, the power came with an ugly appearance, but the relationships were more harmonious overall—everyone was jolly, and there was a steady supply of \"delicious soup.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even that wasn't ideal for Eden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he still had his sights on the Life Goddess Isha, trapped in Nurgle's Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He'd been planning for a long time to rescue her and had made corresponding preparations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he defected to Nurgle, that would be awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Imagine running into Isha in the Garden, sharing awkward glances…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, those sneaky Nurgle daemons had sent word: Papa Nurgle was about to make a big move soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, after careful analysis, Khorne seemed like the best bet—badass aesthetics, no excessive rules, just a focus on combat prowess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His good buddy Ka'Bandha was also over there, and they could team up to build a powerful enterprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Ka'Bandha would definitely show off a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Eden had other options too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, he could try to become a four-god-blessed champion like Be'lakor, or emulate the Chaos Warmaster and operate independently, cooperating with the four Chaos Gods as needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about it, Eden had plenty of development paths ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't have to keep slaving away for the Emperor and humanity, nor endure the arrogant bureaucrats on Holy Terra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The foolish Imperium was holding back his progress!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Savior, as the mighty Devourer, he could lead his people to stand alone—deepen their ties with Chaos, and gain greater freedom and power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, no one would dare to ignore his presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would sweep aside all obstacles to humanity's advancement, bringing all to heel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the galaxy would burn beneath his feet!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here's the full translation of the text you provided, done in one go:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was also the Corpse Emperor... this being who could at any moment plunge humanity into the abyss was a threat that must never be ignored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden had to find a permanent solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, some kind of artifact that could truly end the Emperor's existence once and for all...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once these lingering ailments are dealt with, humanity will ascend completely, enter an era of true prosperity, and I'll be free to enjoy endless life, doing whatever I please!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden was brimming with excitement at the thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But suddenly, a shiver ran through him, and he snapped back to his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch... something's off. Why am I thinking about such heretical ideas? This isn't in line with my persona as the benevolent, harmonious, noble, and radiant Savior of humanity!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he calmed down, he noticed even more strange details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A force of Chaos was eroding his thoughts, drawing him toward darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the power of the Changer of Ways, and the taint of other Chaos beings, trying to influence his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But without any resistance, Eden easily seized back control of his thoughts and restored the light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt somewhat satisfied by this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, so I get the Horus treatment too, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the victory at Baal had made the Chaos Gods feel more threatened, prompting them to act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was, in a sense, recognition of his efforts over the years—a gold medal of honor from his enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Becoming a top-priority target for corruption by the Ruinous Powers…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's the ultimate accolade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they don't even bother with you,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it just means you're not important enough yet, and you've got more work to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the Chaos Gods were so generous with their attention, he figured he ought to return the favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The miniature sun flared to life again, its two chubby little hands raised high—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and flipped the Chaos Gods the bird.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with an exaggerated thrust of his hips, he struck a blatantly insulting pose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He transmitted a barrage of psychic messages as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roughly summarized: \"F*** you all!\"—but in a supercharged, 100,000-word-long version of the insult, condensed into an intense psychic blast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the far reaches of the Warp, several colossal shadowy figures trembled, radiating faint emotions of rage and excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they didn't linger long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was just a test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their endless lifespans, they had plenty of time and chances to corrupt this so-called Savior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To achieve that, they would need patience—slowly eroding him, just as they had done to the Primarchs of old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sending his response, Eden didn't dwell on the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he would remain in the galaxy, within the Imperium, and stay on this path without wavering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the optimal trajectory for his development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Eden didn't know was that the Emperor had already been watching him from some point in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor, filled with concern, had resolved to intervene when necessary to preserve the future of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having learned from the lessons of Horus and the other traitor Primarchs, the Emperor had become gentler, more attentive to the inner thoughts and feelings of others—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>to avoid repeating the same mistakes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The growth of the Savior's domain, his possession of resources like the Webway, the psychic network, and other incredible assets—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>all of it had proven that the Imperium and humanity could not afford to lose the Savior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, like the Regent, was an irreplaceable figure for humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One maintained the functioning of the Imperium,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the other represented the hope and future direction of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the latter was even more important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Emperor saw the Savior resisting corruption and striking back,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart swelled with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke further to the Custodian Tylys, granting her even greater power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then He sent an edict back to the Imperial Palace on Holy Terra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are those two whispering about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden watched Tylys, who was conversing with the holy sun, and felt a twinge of curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he refrained from eavesdropping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, the holy sun seemed to finish its exchange with the Custodian and fell back into slumber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn't surprising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man loved his naps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as He didn't one day slip away completely and ascend into some dark godhood, everything would be fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was time to upgrade the \"super faith-powered pressure relief package\" once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the situation had been clarified,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden directly carried Tylys's soul essence back to the real universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Istrade, landing zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not much time had passed, and the crowd was still in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had witnessed a miracle of the Emperor with their own eyes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Savior unleashed his psychic powers, a blazing golden sun phantom had appeared, radiating an overwhelming holy aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone felt the presence of the supreme being, and they offered their worship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their gazes toward the Savior grew even more reverent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt, the Primarch of Hope was the Emperor's most cherished son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps there was no one more loyal to the Emperor than him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the accusations of disloyalty the Custodians had leveled against him—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>those were nothing but a joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tylys slowly opened her eyes, her face still filled with fanatical devotion, tears streaming down uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At some point, she had already fallen to her knees before the Savior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stand up,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden said gently, helping the kneeling Custodian rise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could sense it— this Custodian had grown stronger, her power now several times what it had been, faintly radiating holy energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Savior, my lord…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tylys's gaze was no longer filled with pride and defiance; her entire attitude had undergone a drastic change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great Emperor has bestowed a new decree. The Custodians will correct their previous mistakes and will assist you in your work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. That will make the upcoming defense much easier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This outcome had been within his expectations,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>though Tylys's change in attitude did surprise him a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Custodians were a rigid, stubborn bunch, each one more obstinate than the last, and absolutely loyal to the Emperor— almost impossible to sway by anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that was as it should be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they guarded the Emperor directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they could be swayed by someone else, it would be far too easy to corrupt them from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, wouldn't the Emperor be in danger, stuck on the Golden Throne?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, there hadn't been any known cases of Custodians turning traitor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the Imperium's history was filled with examples of betrayal—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>from common citizens to high-ranking nobles, even the High Lords.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the Space Marines,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>or even the Emperor's own sons, the Primarchs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not the Custodians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That level of loyalty was rare indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All in all, the Custodians had their own value and reason for existing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt, Tylys's attitude had shifted because the Emperor had spoken to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without that, Eden himself would have had no way of persuading a Custodian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At best, he could have destroyed them physically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yep, getting the \"parent\" involved really worked wonders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It settled the issue instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was safe to assume that, after this incident, the Custodians' overall attitude toward him would shift as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they wouldn't fully obey his commands, his words would carry much more weight—perhaps even more than the Regent's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might even gain limited authority to reasonably mobilize Custodians for assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, what counted as \"reasonable\" depended largely on interpretation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there were any rebellious elements within Holy Terra,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>wouldn't the Custodians need to be dispatched to arrest and interrogate them thoroughly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an enormous gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Custodians were, after all, the most powerful force in the Imperium—virtually unmatched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they were stationed right there on Holy Terra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, Eden wouldn't even have to pay for their upkeep—it was all covered by the Imperium's budget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A total win!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once news of this spread, certain factions on Holy Terra would probably lose sleep over it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden strode toward the White Sanctum warriors,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>since he had promised to protect this planet, there were matters to discuss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tylys obediently followed behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone who saw this scene knew exactly what it meant:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Savior had won over the Custodians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His power was now unstoppable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a figure cautiously approached Eden—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it was the Silent Sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes were filled with longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief hesitation, she summoned her courage and quickly signed a flurry of hand signals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hands moved so fast they left afterimages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch… is she weaving hand seals or something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden paused, watching the Silent Sister, who seemed quite agitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't understand her hand signs and felt a bit puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the Savior's confusion, Tylys stepped up as an impromptu translator:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Savior, my lord, the Silent Sister humbly begs your mercy— she hopes you can grant her the chance to meet the great Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this, she is willing to offer everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't just the Silent Sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone present stared at the Savior with hopeful eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their loyalty to the Emperor was beyond question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To meet the great Emperor was their lifelong wish— the greatest longing of every devout follower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden gazed at the Silent Sister, then gently shook his head and cruelly refused her request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, I can't do that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, he stepped past the weeping Silent Sister, who was consumed by deep disappointment, convinced she wasn't loyal enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paid her no further attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor was asleep again— even if they saw Him, they wouldn't get a response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And besides, the holy sun wasn't some tourist attraction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Constantly bringing people over for sightseeing was, frankly, rather presumptuous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after a few steps, Eden paused again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Silent Sister's request had sparked an idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch… actually, maybe… it's not impossible?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, just bringing people over to take a distant look at the holy sun wouldn't cause the Emperor any harm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn't even notice or be disturbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The holy sun was just sitting there most of the time, not doing much anyway—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>why not make some reasonable use of the resource?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whichever way you looked at it, this would boost Imperial morale, strengthen unity, and increase faith in the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would also enhance Eden's influence, earn him greater loyalty, and give him a firmer grip on humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no downside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, not just anyone would qualify for this blessing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden turned back and gave the Silent Sister a gentle look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Follow me. Your devotion has moved me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the Custodians arrived on this planet, they'd probably have to \"meet the parent\" too, so he'd just take the Silent Sister along for the group tour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Silent Sister understood the Savior's meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Praise the Savior! Praise the great Emperor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knelt reverently and signed even faster, overwhelmed by gratitude, fervor, and reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, she followed behind the Savior respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Savior, my lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Eden approached, Marachai tried hard to force a loyal smile onto his usually serious, restrained face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The big man did his best to express something:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord, we of the White Sanctum...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, you're in too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden waved his hand grandly, adding another devout member to the Warp Holy Sun Sightseeing Group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they were here already,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>one more wouldn't hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, the loyalty and honor of the White Sanctum warriors deserved recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden had a fondness for those who stayed true to their oaths, willing to sacrifice everything to protect humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the rest—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they weren't worthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having received the Savior's promise,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marachai's lingering grief completely vanished, replaced by sheer joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arrival of this being brought hope and joy to a planet teetering on the edge of despair and darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eden looked down at the White Sanctum captain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next came the discussion about planetary defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He casually summoned a holographic file and showed it to him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, I came in a bit of a rush this time, so I didn't bring much equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here's all the support I can offer you…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Check Out My Patreon For +20 Extra Chapters On All My Fanfics!!][[email protected]\u002Fzaelum]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[+500 Power Stones = +1 Extra Chapter]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Thank You For Your Support!]\u003C\u002Fp>",3511,"2026-06-06T13:29:01.688Z",1,"novelbin.me","69cbea556cd1bdabea530d502f9356631d1dad39d52f1d998cced53ea7ca5bff","warhammer-starting-as-a-planetary-governor-chapter-371","warhammer-starting-as-a-planetary-governor-chapter-369",771,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarhammer-starting-as-a-planetary-governor-cover.jpg"]
