Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Chapter 493 Rebirth From the Ashes: Midnight Moonlight

The moonlight shines in from outside the window, and the bright moonlight is as clean as snow. The living area of ​​the Governor's Mansion is very high, high enough to penetrate the haze and clouds of the factory.

The faint moonlight shines on the head of the bed and shines on the long gray-green curly hair. Her face is peacefully sleeping like a picture, and her shoulders rise and fall from time to time with her light breathing.

Vito sat up on the bed next to her. He looked at Olivia's sleeping face, then quietly got out of bed, put on his pants, put on his clothes and walked out of the room quietly.

He didn't wake her up. After the door opened silently, he followed the moonlight to the corridor, and then he raised his hand to catch something that was still coming as if instinctively.

He glanced at the thing and said, "Back?"

The person he was asking was in the shadows, but soon stepped into the moonlight, her silver hair shining silver under the bright moon.

"Yeah, if you're asking, everything went well, no one noticed me."

"No surprise, you didn't cause any trouble, right? I mean."

"Yes, no one died, just like you hinted." Sarah said, leaning against the door, leaning on the porch and looking in, "It seems that I had a good time while I was busy."

Vito remained silent, while Sarah laughed and moved her arms, "Don't worry, I'm not that stingy. Since we will have fun with other people, you have the right to do the same."

"Does she still satisfy you?" She asked again with a challenging tone after a moment, but Vito did not answer. He closed the door silently, and then walked into the living room on the first floor with the camera in his hand.

Sarah shrugged and followed silently, her steps so light that she seemed to be floating, her long silver hair swaying in the moonlight. Vito spoke again only after they arrived in the living room.

"I didn't ask you to do this, right?" He said, sitting on the dim sofa, and the moonlight coming through the steel frame from the tall floor-to-ceiling window hit half of his body.

"But you want it right? You don't trust me, so you need something more convincing, and it's best to see it before you believe it."

"Sarah."

"Don't say such sensational words. You know I don't catch a cold. You and I both know the facts." She said nonchalantly, and then sat on another single sofa equally nonchalantly. She crossed her legs and bathed in the moonlight. Down.

"Okay, don't look at me with those eyes, just open that thing and take a look." She said, "It also saves me the trouble of narrating it again."

Vito did as he was told. He activated the rear screen of the camouflage camera and looked at it. Everyone remained quiet while he looked at it. The entire living room was silent, as if even breathing had disappeared. Only the low voices of conversations in the picture could be heard from time to time.

He finished reading it quickly, then turned off the camera and threw it aside. "Their plan is good. In fact, I can't help but praise them."

"Tzeentch came up with an interesting idea this time, using the Empire's method to deal with me. If I forcefully solve it, I will confront Guilliman and Terra. If I don't solve it, I will have to suffer a bitter pill."

"But the plan was exposed from the beginning. You sent two undercover agents." Sarah said lightly.

"Tell me, does that chick know that you sent someone to spy on her?" She muttered, looking at her nails that were spitting out nail polish.

"Is this the same when Lily and you usually go on adventures?"

"Don't you share the same feelings with her?"

"Indeed, but Lily doesn't know if you also sent someone to follow her." Sarah said, "Just like you sent me to follow Petronila."

The hall fell silent. He was silent for a while and then shook his head, "No, I didn't. Do you believe me?"

He answered calmly and simply. Sarah didn't look at him or speak. She just nodded silently after listening, then leaned on the sofa and stretched her arms.

"So what are you going to do? Kill them?" she asked.

"No, that would be too troublesome. Tzeentch hasn't finished playing this game yet. He will find new chess pieces to put on the table. I don't intend to second guess what he is going to do."

Vito turned the table and picked up a pen in his hand, "I plan to continue playing and let them put all the cards on the table and eat them all at once."

He continued, putting his hands on his knees, "Besides, Antony was sent by Guilliman anyway. If I want to kill him, I have to have an absolutely suitable reason that he can't refute, so as not to avoid other People are gossiping, giving Tzeentch more room to play.”

"This way Tzeentch can calm down for a while. He will rethink how to plot against me. This will take a while, and I will not have to deal with these troubles for a while."

Sarah nodded and crossed one leg in front of her. The nun's combat uniform fit her whole body, and in the slightly darker light it looked like she was not wearing any clothes.

"So what are you going to do? Wait and see what happens?"

Vito leaned on the sofa, the pen in his hand as dexterous as a skinning knife, "Let them think they can win, put out the bait, let them eat it, and then go and eat the next one."

"In the end, at the right time and in the right place, I will take down the prey." He smiled, as if he was teasing someone, and Sarah glanced at him, then shrugged.

"Sounds interesting, so how are you going to get them to take the bait and use her as bait?" Sarah said, looking back at the bedroom door on the second floor.

Vito looked at the closed door and was silent for a moment. He clasped his hands in front of him, "I will arrange everything. She will be fine, but I will make them believe that everything is as they imagined."

Sarah shrugged slightly and lifted her long hair from the back of her head. The snow-white hair was flying in the moonlight, like a falling snowflake.

She sat on the sofa, her graceful body looking like the best dream. Vito looked at her in silence, and she also looked over. The two looked at each other and fell into a long silence.

The clock at midnight ticked, accompanied by the sound of the pendulum, and the footsteps of the guards of the Governor's Mansion in the distance gradually became clearer. In this silence, they sat at each other's seats and looked at each other.

After a moment, Sarah stood up and said, "Go back, go back to your bed, just like she found you disappeared, she won't be as generous as me."

After saying that, Sarah turned and left. Vito stood up unconsciously and looked at her, "Sarah."

He shouted, and she stopped. She listened carefully and then smiled in the moonlight, "Forget it. Anyway, you and I have nothing to say except business. You don't want to talk to me, right? Even when we go to bed, , you are silent."

He remained silent, as if Sarah expected, she shrugged and threw an Eldar Soul Stone to Vito, who also caught it.

"It's empty, take it and use it." After saying that, she walked into the shadows at the edge of the living room and disappeared without a trace, leaving only Vito standing alone in the living room.

He stood under the setting moon and saw the portrait of the emperor on the TV cabinet. He placed it there, staring at him wordlessly with his eyes.

"Shut up, I know."

After speaking, Vito picked up the camera on the sofa, walked up the stairs to the second floor, and walked on the creaky steps to the window where he left.

No one knew about the midnight conversation except the Emperor in the painting who witnessed it all.
