Chapter 426 26 Angron Makes a Majestic Appearance

Chapter 426 2.6 Angron makes a grand appearance

Angron had spent the past few days feeling vaguely uneasy.

The Star Torch was extinguished, and the World Eaters' ships were damaged in the subspace turbulence, but fortunately under the command of Captain Salin, the World Eaters did not suffer too many losses.

Angron paused, and subconsciously pressed the corners of his eyes with his hands. He still remembered the feeling at that time, as if his entire soul was burning, trembling, and mourning.

--what on earth is it?

Angron thought, the dead nails on his head reflecting in the light, obedient and silent.

... Something happened to a person who was very important to him.

That's what he thought, Angron thought, trusting his instincts, a gift given to him by the Emperor.

But who could that person be?

Could it be the Emperor? After all, the star torch went out.

Angron thought he might not feel so sad for the Emperor.

Who could that be?

Angron thought that he might already have the answer in his mind.

...Hades.

Angron's mind trembled. He thought of the strange noises in the Milky Way and the subspace in the past few days, and the corners of his mouth twitched in disbelief, like a bitter smile.

He thought of the figure that rushed out of the blood mist, and without hesitation carried him out of the people surrounded by Lord Khorne.

yes!

Angron thought, if such a warrior extinguishes his blazing fire of life, then the one who is worthy of his status, the one who will be buried with him, and the one who will cry for him will be the entire galaxy.

Whether he succeeds or fails, Hades is a true warrior!

Angron thought that if Hades succeeded, then he would celebrate the return of Hades. If Hades failed, then he would complete his unfinished mission for Hades.

Thinking of this, Angron smiled and shook his head,

Now I don't know exactly what happened, thinking about it is still too far away.

Maybe I can witness the empire granting glory to Hades next?

There was murmur on the communication channel, they had arrived.

Macragge, Angron thought, he had heard of it, the brother named Robert Guilliman, he had not met him, but he knew Guilliman as if they had met him long ago— —

Hades indeed had an obsessive yearning for Macragge.

Angron thought he was becoming curious about Macragge.

Moreover, if Macragge's subspace coordinates hadn't suddenly lit up, it would have been impossible for the World Eaters to find this place.

Now, Macragge's warp projection is like a small star torch, projecting light towards other star fields.

Fortunately, Angron and Mortarion were not politically sensitive Primarchs. Perhaps they had discovered this, but they did not care.

A primarch like Horus might have been dissatisfied with the shining lighthouse of Phaeath in the realm of Ultramar.

The lighthouse of Phaeth gleams, attracting the attention of every being.

In the chaotic turbulence of the subspace, a slow gaze was staring at Ultramar with great interest.

A low and earnest whisper sounded,

"The three have gathered, and their fates have returned to each other, crossing each other and heading towards the right path."

"——He has been defeated. This is a mockery of fate. What He has restored and what He has changed will return to the right path."

————————

Macragge Harbor.

[Angron, brother. 】

Angron reached out naturally and took Guilliman's hand. The gladiator's hand was generous and warm.

Angron said cheerfully. He took a step forward, patted Guilliman on the back skillfully and hugged Guilliman. He felt Guilliman's stiff body, and then let go.

Guilliman was far more rigid than Mortarion.

Angron grinned and patted Guilliman's shoulder armor. He looked casually at the blue sky and clean streets on Macragge.

Angron remained indifferent to all this. After all, apart from the gladiatorial arena, the streets of Nusria were also like this.

The good news is that under Guilliman's leadership, there are no oppressive buildings like the Arena in Macragge.

Angron smiled and said loudly,

[Thank you, brother, because of the trouble in subspace, we are a little late. 】

Guilliman blinked violently and turned to look at Angron, as if this newly met brother had been stabbed in the face.

[I am Robert Guilliman, welcome to Macragge, brother,]

Guilliman then spoke his words of welcome,

[You are already very fast. To be honest, I did not expect the World Eaters to arrive now. 】

Guilliman said, and he smiled relaxedly. Perhaps even Guilliman didn't realize that Angron made him feel relaxed, like an old friend he had known for a long time.

Angron laughed loudly. He glanced at the ships moored in the port. In addition to the bright blue, they were also mixed with silent and dim bone white and green.

[But it looks like we weren’t the first to arrive? 】

Guilliman paused slightly, Angron observed this detail,

Guilliman smiled and held out his hand,

[The Death Guard of the Fourteenth Legion led by Mortarion are also here, but they may leave at any time. 】

Angron was thoughtful,

[So Hades is here too? 】

he asked casually.

Then, Angron saw Guilliman who was standing still. Guilliman turned his head slowly, slowly, his eyes full of confusion and confusion.

[No, my brothers, Angron and Hades are not in Macragge. 】

Guilliman opened his mouth and took a deep breath, as if he wanted to confirm something.

【You...you also know Hades? 】

Angron laughed, and he patted Guilliman's shoulder armor so hard that Guilliman almost staggered.

[A true warrior meets heroes from all over the world! 】

Angron spoke loudly, drawing close to Guilliman.

[Brother, do you think you are the only one who has noticed this unique soulless person? 】

Guilliman briefly went through it in his mind. In fact, just like Dantioch, many times it was only Guilliman who noticed the talents within each legion.

And after that, they still kept thinking about it, waiting for the day they hoped to come to Macragge.

Guilliman smiled and silently tried to distance himself from Angron. Angron also let Guilliman do so indifferently.

The Lord of the Red Sands had his hands on his hips. During the conversation with Guilliman, he looked at Macragge's humanistic features very energetically, as if he wanted to remember it all.

[I agree with your point of view,]

Guilliman said,

[Talent is a rare commodity everywhere, let alone a talent with noble conduct. 】

Guilliman thought for a while, and he remembered the happy conversation he had with Hades. In this vast galaxy, there are few people who value everyone's feelings as much as Guilliman does——

They do not want to regard "human beings in a broad sense" as some kind of resource or power. Even if they are rulers and have to do that in their calculations, their starting point is still a better life-for everyone, better life.

That's why Guilliman wanted it to be Hades so, so much.

Most Space Marines have some...disrespect for civilians, even the Salamanders, with a somewhat condescending attitude.

Hades had praised the roadside food stalls on Macragge with great interest and expressed the feeling that he must eat there.

Guilliman thought that it was difficult for him to see another warrior say such words again, so close to the people and sincere.

Unfortunately, none of them are Hades.

Guilliman sighed once again.

[Oh...my brother, what is Mortarion doing? 】

Angron's abrupt question interrupted Guilliman's thoughts, and Guilliman sighed in his heart.

[He is visiting Macragge. 】

Guilliman said,

[I really wanted to accompany him, but I still had official business to attend to, so I asked my heir to accompany him. 】

Guilliman was silent for a moment, his tone seemed to be gritting his teeth a little,

[He made no suggestion of wanting to see Macragge's defenses - he just seemed to be wandering around in boredom, and I couldn't understand his behavior. 】

Angron responded to Guilliman's words. The Lord of the Red Sands was staring into the distance at the moment, with light shining in his eyes.

Even Angron, who still has not fully recovered, still feels... quite intense emotions.

That direction seems to be... Mortarion?

【I can understand the behavior of the Lord of Death,】

Angron said, as if he remembered something funny,

[I met Mortarion once, and it seems that he also has a crush on Macragge. 】

【but,】

Angron paused.

[Should we check it out, Guilliman? There seems to be a commotion on your Macragge side. 】

Angron turned his head and saw Guilliman showing an expression of helplessness and disgust.

[Mortarion? 】

The Lord of Macragge asked tentatively.

Then Guilliman saw the affirmative answer in Angron's eyes.

Mortarion? !

————

In the civilian area far away from the port, a tall, thin, ghostly monster was standing on the street.

Behind him, the crowd was bustling and crowded together, exclaiming in small voices.

Mortarion lowered his eyes and stared at the food stall in front of him without saying a word.

The stall owner in front of him seemed to be about to cry. The mortal looked at the Ultramarines behind the Lord of Death with helpless eyes, but the Ultramarines who were usually trusted by people were so small next to Mortarion. .

Perhaps only the arrival of Lord Guilliman can compete with such a giant.

In the end, perhaps Mortarion had been silent for too long, which had caused traffic jams on the street and people watching. Next to Mortarion, the unlucky Ultramarine silently took a step forward.

"……grown ups?"

He asked tentatively, and Mortarion raised his hand to stop him from continuing,

Mortarion ordered the Macragge specialty food put out by the stall owner.

[I want this, this, and this. 】

The mortal in front of him seemed to have been pardoned from the death penalty and immediately prepared it as quickly as possible. Gallo next to Mortarion stepped forward, and the veteran took the pancake-like dessert with cute animals painted on it.

Mortarion turned his head and looked at the Ultramarine who had just stood up.

[You pay, double the money, and then go to Guilliman to collect the money. Tell him that he invited me. 】

【……】

[If he is unwilling, then tell him that he invited Hades. 】

Mortarion said without changing his expression.

Great!
