He spoke, his tone heavy with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lorgar!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nareth requires me to remind him to slow down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But how many times must I urge you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father...\" Lorgar said, embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor cut him off. \"I don't need your faith. I don't need your worship. I am not a god!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need you to move faster. I hope that next time I see you, you are no longer last.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Curze. \"Except for your newly returned brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he rose and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valdor followed. Malcador's voice was softer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lorgar, your father simply wants you to achieve something as soon as possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at Nareth, then rose and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curze, his face pale, rose unsteadily. He stared at Nareth's psychic projection for a moment, then turned and walked into the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nareth.\" Ferrus Manus's silver-coin eyes were fixed on Nareth. His voice, like lead, held a hint of heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth also spoke. \"Perturabo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nareth, since you'll be at Vostroya for the foreseeable future, it's time for our duel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ferrus Manus's silver-coin eyes liquefied, radiating a light like molten iron in a furnace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\" Nareth couldn't say that he had decided to undertake a series of unpredictable voyages to make things harder for the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When will you arrive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ferrus's transhuman mind calculated the Warp travel time in seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By standard reckoning, May of next year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth nodded. \"I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Ferrus's figure rapidly faded and vanished, he turned to Perturabo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Grand Theater is complete at Vostroya. You should see your design in person before you leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth didn't know how long the Emperor would send Perturabo to the frontier. Perhaps they would not meet again before the Heresy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To prevent the theater he had built at great cost from being unseen by Perturabo, he had to come to Vostroya before leaving for the edge of Segmentum Pacificus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perturabo's eyes lit up, then dimmed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I have trials to complete.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will get you there faster.\" Nareth, anticipating this, smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even going from Vostroya to the Kalium Gate, you will still reach the western frontier faster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perturabo's ice-blue eyes gleamed. \"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The improved stasis device will be completed this year. I will bring it to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth nodded happily. With the improved device, he could venture deeper into Sak'trada Deeps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could find a fragment of Be'lakor's relic, he would be one step closer to Sequence 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You will see a grand artistic performance.\" Nareth smiled, then asked casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to prepare. When do you expect to arrive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"4th month of next year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Perturabo's answer, Nareth paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He expected to arrive only a month before Ferrus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering Warp travel and other factors, their arrivals might coincide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hmm, that's convenient for me. I won't have to make multiple trips to Vostroya.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I look forward to your arrival.\" Nareth and Perturabo exchanged smiles, then each ended their psychic projection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth's golden wings flexed. Cold sweat evaporated. Warmth dispelled some of the lingering fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worlds on the front lines of various Legions flashed through his mind. 'Which of them most likely held a civilization destroyed by Be'lakor?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silently, he boarded a black Aquila Lander and returned to Shadowhold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He summoned Arsena and instructed calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perturabo will arrive at Vostroya in the 4th month to see his design.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prepare a grand performance for him, one he will remember for a long time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will have the Legion's domains prepare performances.\" The Primarch's Aide carefully noted the Black Emperor's command as a priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth rose, drawing the Sword of Vaul from his belt. Using \"Concepts Swap,\" it becomes an ordinary longsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tapped rapidly on the floor. As spiritual energy spread, the space became isolated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of the two newly discovered systems, 11-7-49 and 11-12-35, which do you think was more likely a civilization destroyed by Be'lakor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver-haired Arsena, seeing the Black Emperor activate the \"Euclidian Runes\" to isolate the space, knew this was important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not answer immediately. He rapidly reviewed all the data, then, as a seasoned \"Detective,\" carefully reasoned. After a dozen seconds, he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"11-7-49 contains many ancient temple ruins, but the Librarians and Techmarines have determined the civilization was destroyed about eight thousand years ago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You said Be'lakor was more active in ancient times.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Therefore, though 11-7-49 could have been destroyed by him, it's less likely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he went to a cogitator and connected his data-slate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers flew, displaying a star chart before Nareth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"11-12-35, based on its environment, could be classified as a forest world. But a heritage site was discovered in its brown mountain range.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seasoned 'Mystery Pryer' and 'Archaeologists' cannot determine its exact age. They can only vaguely estimate it is at least ten thousand years old.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Therefore, the civilization at 11-12-35 is more likely to have been destroyed by Be'lakor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth nodded slightly, accepting the seasoned \"Detective's\" deduction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at the two planets. 11-12-35, 164 light-years from Vostroya, also better fit his need to leave Vostroya but return quickly than 11-7-49, 58 light-years from Catachan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A teleportarium could only shorten a journey. Traveling from 11-7-49 to Catachan, then through the Teleportarium from the Ultima Segmentum to Vostroya in the Segmentum Obscurus, would take far longer than returning from 11-12-35.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Twelfth Chapter had not expanded from its recruiting world, Tanith. Segmentum Pacificus was not a focus of the Legion's expansion for a considerable time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nareth also had no territories in the Segmentum Tempestus, or in the Necromunda Subsector, Elysia, or Ar Rija in the Segmentum Solar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 11th Legion's current conquests were focused on the northern Segmentum Obscurus and the eastern Ultima Segmentum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Tenth, Eleventhth, and Twelfth Chapters, nine Chapters, were expanding outward from Vostroya, leaving only garrison forces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hoped to complete the exploration and conquest of the Vostroya Sector, a 330-light-year range agreed upon with Malcador, before the Heresy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he would also occasionally detach them for operations in other regions, and to take some high-value worlds he had targeted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prepare to set sail for 11-12-35.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As You command.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Arsena acknowledged, Nareth deactivated the \"Euclidian Runes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Aide withdrew to relay the orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you enjoy the story, my p@treon is 30 chapters ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[email protected]\u002FDaoistJinzu\u003C\u002Fp>",1051,"2026-06-06T05:05:28.115Z",1,"novelbin.me","6de519cd4db916f86c6e75aeafe86029fcdf88a73103c33eab9f149e6da80752","warhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-chapter-596","warhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-chapter-595",698,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwarhammer-the-11th-primarch-the-black-emperor-cover.jpg"]
