Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor

Chapter 489 Rebirth from the Ashes: Legion Returns

Jack ran quickly through the corridor, fastening his buttons as he ran, and drank the drink he had just bought as quickly as possible.

He rushed over quickly, drank the drink before rushing out of the arcade, handed the empty bottle to an attendant, and then quickly came to Olivia's side.

She stood on the large deck of the star port, with the eagle statues with wings spread on both sides bulging above her head, shining with golden light. The governor turned to look at his nephew and heir who had hurriedly arrived.

"You were almost late."

"Are they here?" Jack said out of breath. His stomach was cramping due to the severe pain just now. He really regretted buying that iced juice. Now he could only pray and hope to be embarrassed in front of the big shots. .

"No, not yet, he likes to show off, especially at times like this." Olivia said, bending down and wiping away the remaining juice from the corners of Jack's mouth with her fingers.

"You remember the etiquette, right? I hope you paid attention to the lessons, because you're going to need them soon."

"Yes, I still remember, at least I believe so." Jack felt a little guilty. He tried hard to recall the contents of the boring course, and even began to pray to the emperor that he really remembered.

Olivia saw her embarrassment, smiled secretly and straightened up, "You'd better remember, because they are coming."

She said, looking at the sky with her hair coiled up, and Jack immediately looked over.

Above their heads, in the airspace that had long been cleared, the atmospheric clouds burned violently. As the clouds covering the hive city were knocked away, the huge ship descended from the sky, like a large whale diving into the sea.

The large transport ship landed on the deck at the front of the star port with blazing fire in its belly. The heat wave that swept over it made Jack unable to open his eyes. He soon forced himself to open his eyes and looked at the lowered door and the People walking off it.

Jack had listened to Morgrim telling him the stories of the Iron Knights countless times, and his aunt was always asked to repeat the Battle of Victoria Star to him. He was deeply impressed by those warriors, and he thought he knew them well enough.

But he was wrong. When those sky warriors walked down the deck and actually stepped onto the ground and walked towards him, Jack felt extremely shocked. He looked at the burly giants walking towards him and was speechless with excitement.

Among the tall warriors was the leader wearing golden armor. He strode forward, and without any introduction, Jack could instinctively recognize that he was the Supreme Marshal.

Behind him, there were two steel knights on each side. The one on the left was wearing gray armor and a white robe, while the one on the right was wearing blue armor and a bright red robe on his shoulders. Behind them were leaders. With two teams of sky warriors.

They walked across the deck with heavy steps. The two teams had two flags, two-winged swords and a golden crown letter U.

The fluttering flags flew fiercely in front of the procession. Following the footsteps of the visitors from outside, the honor guards on both sides knelt down and saluted them.

Jack looked at the golden giant. He came in front of him like a mountain that blocked the sun. The steel followers stopped behind him, and the flags were flying as if they were flying on a towering city wall.

His eyes did not look at himself, nor at all the representatives of the Victorian aristocracy behind him, but looked directly at Aunt Olivia.

"Are you a little fatter?" he asked.

"You've also gained weight. You've grown several times bigger."

The aunt replied after a moment, and a silence fell between the two, which made Jack and the others nervous, but they all suddenly smiled.

"Dear Silver Snake, I miss you so much." He said with a smile, "I'm glad you are still so beautiful. Time has not changed you too much, and I can still recognize you at a glance."

"You too, haven't changed at all. The only change is that the last time I saw you, you were still a judge, but this time, should I call you marshal?"

"No, don't." He smiled, "It will only make me feel embarrassed. This is yours."

As he said this, he finally seemed to have discovered himself. Jack raised his chest nervously and raised his head, and all the etiquette he had just tried to remember in his mind was swept away.

Olivia looked at her face and laughed, which made Jack blush until his ears, but she smiled and said.

"No, he is my nephew, Jack, and also my heir." Olivia explained, "His mother is my cousin. She and her husband died in an accident, and then he was taken care of by me."

"Oh?" He looked with a smile, "Your heir? The future governor, right? He looks like..."

"It's not like that. I know, I'm still teaching him, at least I'm trying to teach him."

"I hope he studies hard."

"I do!" Jack responded automatically, feeling like an idiot.

Vito laughed, "I believe so. Your aunt is a good woman. Just listen to her. Jack, do you need me to introduce myself?"

"No, no, he's heard enough of your stories." Olivia smiled and touched Jack's head. She always did this as if she was still a child, which embarrassed Jack, especially when In front of Vito Constantine.

"Ten years have passed, and you have many "friends" around you." Vito said and looked up. The nobles bowed or curtsied to him one after another. Their movements were quite elegant and appropriate, and he also showed a hint of smile.

Although Jack could tell that there was no real meaning in that smile, and his eyes also had the sharp gaze of a wolf in the hunt.

"So are you, and there are a lot more than last time." Olivia said, gesturing to the entourage behind him.

"Indeed, but there are also people you know, that's Belle over there and that's Lancelot."

He signaled, and the two tall knights also nodded and saluted their aunt, who also politely returned the salute to them. After some thought, Jack also repeated the salute.

"Who are those? Your new girls?" Olivia said with a smile, one hand on her waist, looking quite natural in front of the marshal, completely different from usual.

"Don't worry, I won't be angry." She smiled.

"That is Ms. Pedronilla Viva, the narrator, my attaché and personal secretary."

He said, and Jack immediately looked at the well-behaved gray-haired lady who seemed to come from a noble family. Her hair was somewhat similar to Aunt Olivia, but her eyes were a different color and her face shape was different. It's different, but it's still pretty.

She curtsied gracefully, and Jack gave her a gentlemanly bow in return, but when he then looked at the other one, he froze.

With silver hair and slender eyebrows covering her purple eyes, she is tall and beautiful.

He knew that many of the male nobles behind him were like him. They carefully hid their admiring glances from their partners or ladies of similar status.

But this obviously had no effect. The ladies all showed resentful looks, but there was also jealousy in them. Their carefully dressed appearance was instantly eclipsed in front of her.

Her eyes looked over, and just one glance made Jack's face turn as red as a ripe apple, and her provocative smile made him involuntarily have unseemly thoughts.

When he thought of his fiancée, Jack suddenly felt ashamed, which was discovered by Olivia.

She looked at the woman teasing her nephew, "Where is this? Your "close entourage"?"

"It's a friend. Her name is Sarah Malfoy. She is a member of the Sisters of Battle. She has worked with me many times before. You know, when I was the Inquisitor."

"Are you familiar?"

"We are quite familiar." Sarah walked up with a charming smile, "We are old friends, very old friends."

ancient? Jack couldn't help but start to guess her age, but Sarah seemed to see through it and put her finger in front of her lips and smiled, "Don't ask about the lady's age, that's rude."

Jack immediately blushed and lowered his head humbly.

"Why are you here? You must not be thinking of me, right?"

Olivia asked nonchalantly, she really hoped she didn't embarrass her aunt.

"Maybe?"

"You take two battle groups, an entire fleet and the army above, and a battle sister." She glanced at Sarah who was smiling again.

"Is there something here that interests you?" said Aunt Olivia. "And probably something that wouldn't interest us."

Jack noticed that her voice suddenly became very quiet. Only Vito in front of him could hear it, and of course he, Sister Sarah, the rest of the people, the nobles and the Astartes guards behind the marshal. Neither can be heard.

Vito stared at the nobles unnoticed and nodded silently, "There are some unpopular people among your "friends"."

Jack frowned immediately after hearing this. His little mind suddenly understood. He also knew that his aunt must also understand, but he concealed his thoughts better than himself. He did not look back, and his expression remained as calm as water. .

After a long time, she answered, her voice deliberately louder, "Then welcome, Marshal, to come to Victoria for supply and inspection. I believe we will entertain you well, right?"

Olivia then looked back. She looked at Morgrim, who stood beside Tyrfan and nodded immediately.

"Of course! The reception banquet has been prepared for a long time. A dwarf-style banquet can always melt the tired ice flying across the star sea." He grinned, and Vito nodded to him with a smile.

Jack thought for a moment, and then plucked up the courage to speak to him, "Your Excellency Marshal, I have a friend who has always wanted to meet you. Can you allow me to take her to the banquet? And meet you."

"His fiancée." Olivia added appropriately, "She, like him, grew up listening to your stories."

"What's the girl's name?" Sarah asked with a smile.

"Wen Yanar," Jack answered.

Sarah smiled again and leaned closer to Vito, "She sounds like a beautiful girl. You should really meet her. I also want to meet her."

"Then, okay, invite her." He said with a smile, "I also happen to meet Silver Snake's future daughter-in-law."

Jack looked at his aunt excitedly, who smiled and nodded. Jack immediately turned around and ran away. He excitedly took the phone from the maid and started dialing the number.

As he passed, Morgrim smiled and Tyrfan showed a look of disgust, which did not escape Vitor's notice.

"Is this going to be a 'big banquet'?" Olivia asked with her hands on her hips.

"Yes, a feast of blood and wine," he replied.

"And don't forget the conspiracy," Sarah added. "It's such a fun game."

she said with a smile.
