How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 272 Astartes without a helmet is likely to leave his own dark history among brothers.
"Discovered other Night Lords?" As Savita expected, Fujimaru Ritsuka's first reaction after hearing the ins and outs of this "accident" was surprise, "This is a need... No, this is a need. Is this what I want to bring to the table?"

Very well, her focus was not on Sevita escaping from the Storm Frontier, or on him sneaking into Kaelia's room and stealing the sacred necklace, but on the incident itself that pointed directly to all of this. This was expected by Savita - Fujimaru Ritsuka's logic is sometimes strange, but as long as she can understand this strange logic, she can actually guess it easily.

Not to mention how many achievements other people have made on this issue, at least he can understand it to the First Captain of the Night Lords who holds another Seveta record in the illusion.

By the way, these records also provided some additional effects that Sevata did not really want: Sigismund, who was standing aside, did not take off his helmet and did not speak, but moved slightly behind the person he was protecting. But it was from this little body movement that Syvetta could tell that he was unhappy.

This made Sevita want to beat Ketraruo even more.

Because he could figure out the meaning of his thoughts like a breath, Savita knew more clearly at this time that when Fujimaru Ritsuka, the master of psychology of the Midnight Lords, asked this question, he was not wondering "why do you do this", but was thinking about it in the distance. Kong blamed the person involved for "just doing it, but why did he make the scene so ugly?"

One notable difference between Ritsuka Fujimaru and Konrad Curze as the Midnight Lord's superior is that her definition of "justice" is much more ambiguous. In this regard, her judgment standards tend to deviate based on the outcome of one thing. Although this does not mean that she will not reprimand, hold accountable and punish the mistakes that occurred in the process, but as long as the mistakes in the process do not really go beyond the scope of the matter, and the results are good enough, the person who made the mistake will often be punished. will be put down gently.

Of course, the premise is that this matter is not discovered by Sigismund.

Differences in how superiors handle matters will also affect how subordinates handle problems. For example, if the person leading this group of Night Lords is their true genetic father, then Sevatar's first reaction must be to fasten the lid quickly and suppress the whole thing. The Primarch knew that it was even more impossible to come to Curze to ask for the authority of his superiors when he committed something else himself - after all, the King of the Night would really skin off those who made mistakes and hang them on the bridge to dry. .

But Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't, so after a brief hesitation, Savita directly showed the whole problem to the other party according to the experience left by himself in the illusion. Facts proved to him that, at least for Fujimaru Ritsuka, the experience in the fantasy world is also applicable in reality: she did not complain too much about the whole thing, and directly started to check the official document template brought by Savita, obviously thinking about it. How to clean up this mess.

"I have many questions to ask about Ketraru's specific motives, but I'd better wait until this matter calms down." She took out a blank piece of parchment and began to copy and modify it in High Gothic. content, so that the specific expressions in the official document can correspond to the current situation, "I think you have to find a way to teach him about emotional intelligence in the future - why didn't he see it? This matter should not be put on the table. How about solving it?”

The person from the other side came secretly, and they were still talking about work outside. In this case, you succeeded in incapacitating the other person without being discovered, and you either secretly threw the person back, or secretly locked him up - you threw the person into the hall along the freight channel and crossed the open road. what's going on? This is originally a problem that can be easily solved through mutual tacit understanding. Why do you have to put it on the scale? Do you think she, the CEO of Chaldea, has not done enough on Baal?
"I'm sorry, ma'am." Although it wasn't much, Sevata still had the emotional intelligence to look at the atmosphere. At least at this moment, in this atmosphere of "in short, I should apologize first," he did not choose the one that seemed more appropriate in terms of address. Frivolous title, "Although I don't know the actual situation yet, based on what I know about Marshall Cattraro, I think there must be some external factors driving him to do this."

He said this without knowing what he was saying, and at the same time, there was an atmosphere of disapproval around Sigismund, who was the audience. Realizing this, Savita simply changed the topic and revealed the possibility that should be closer to the truth in his guess: "Of course, it could also be that he suddenly made a little 'fantastic idea'. It’s impossible to tell.”

Unfortunately, perhaps because the target was covered in armor, his cold reading skills were not very effective on Sigismund. The Black Knight did disagree with his statement, but what he disagreed with was not the part that Sevatar thought: "You didn't even succeed in understanding the full story before you came to report and ask for a 'solution'?"

Savita raised a brow under his helmet - if he talked about this topic, he would be more energetic: "If someone gets into trouble, then the 'sequence' of reporting the incident to the superior is very important. You A stone head that only causes diplomatic accidents.”

"These issues that are not directly helpful in resolving the matter should be dealt with later when we review the case. It's not like quarreling on someone else's property. If you have some spare time, you might as well make up a reason for me to arrest someone." Fujimaru Ritsuka promptly said. Interjecting, preventing another verbal dispute between the two men that could have escalated into a fight at any time. By the way, after Sevita gradually mastered the basic use of psychic powers by taking lessons from Kaelia, the possible scope of the battle between the two people became wider and wider. Considering that a long-awaited reunion (?) of a loving father and son (?) was being staged in the main hall of the church next to the chapel, a similar incident really shouldn't happen here and now.

The worst possibility: What if the top brass of the Blood Angels Chapter next door get angry and show their anger to everyone in a split second?

But Savita cheered up after hearing this: "So we can catch that unlucky guy?" "Otherwise? You guys have all been knocked unconscious. Why don't you catch him? Give him a fruit basket after you leave the country. Apologize?" Fujimaru Ritsuka said angrily.

To be honest, if she had done such a stupid thing during the time when she only represented herself, of course she would have dealt with it this way. But now, as the spokesperson of the Chaldea Bureau, her situation in the empire is completely different: if they apologize first, wouldn't the long title of saint of the empire fall into her hands? Where should the authority of the Chaldea Bureau, as an organization directly under the Star Torch Hall, be placed? Is it possible for a judge like you to check this confidential item without even saying hello? Even if he was just trying to keep up appearances for the sake of his political image, Fujimaru Ritsuka still had to ask someone to bring this unlucky black shield guy back for trial.

"In short, now, immediately, contact Ketraruo and ask him to take the people back to the Storm Frontier and follow the normal inspection and restriction procedures." Fujimaru Ritsuka finished writing the signature and date, and printed it directly on the spot: the electronic seal is as if It was taken directly out of the air, and the other two people present were already familiar with this - the original seal was still in a room on the Emperor's Dream, securely locked in a safe, but if If someone wants to check the seal, they will find that the traces left on this document are also genuine.

Just like the Empire's genetic testing system can't actually tell the difference between one Primarch and another, the Empire's electronic seal system can't tell the difference between the original seal and the traces left by Fujimaru Ritsuka's psychic projection. This is indeed a somewhat regrettable security vulnerability, but fortunately, the only object that can trigger this vulnerability is made of 100% Emperor's psychic energy. It is presided over by the Imperial Saint and witnessed by the Emperor's Champion (the person involved does not seem to agree, but does not The disapproval was uttered, and therefore acquiesced), without any element of disloyalty.

"I guess Judge Hastings will also choose to minimize the big issue, so the diplomatic pressure shouldn't be too great." Fujimaru Ritsuka handed this freshly prepared document, which was at least bluffing, to Savita , "With this, you have the legal basis to search and arrest the other party, but it is best to end the matter here - which means that if there is no problem in the review, if the judge comes to ask for the person, the person himself also wants to die. Watch, then you have to send the person back obediently, do you understand?"

Sevatar nodded and took the piece of parchment which was not very big. Since the paper could be reviewed and inspected at any time, and since they obviously did not have the means to seal it with wax, the contents were simply exposed for anyone to read. Therefore, after adjusting the sacred object and stealth state, turning around and leaving, Sevatar took a few more glances at the paragraph describing the incident in the document out of pure curiosity. Immediately afterwards, he discovered that Fujimaru Ritsuka was obviously making up this issue very perfunctorily:
"... Our department suspects that this person is related to an old case that cannot be disclosed, so we arrested him and examined him..."

The moment he saw this sentence that clearly said "I have a little secret that other judges cannot know, don't ask if you know it", Savita was a little doubtful whether Fujimaru Ritsuka had been tricked by the dark group on the Lion's Mane. The angel was led astray.
-
Frankly speaking, for at least two minutes, Chapter Leader Dante, who was dissatisfied with the status quo, really wanted to blame Fujimaru Ritsuka for making such crude arrangements for this historic moment - even if in the next second, his Logic reminded him that even if Fujimaru Ritsuka did say that, it was not her fault at all. Dante himself knew that the emotion surging in his heart was entirely out of a desperate anger that was powerless against the current situation. It was an "irrational" emotion that should be carefully restrained. He still spent two minutes, Only then could I free myself from these emotions.

The glorious archangel of Baal, the genetic father of the Blood Angels, he should have deserved the most beautiful and graceful things, and if Dante could know this in advance, he could do it even if he was given one more day. Make at least a little arrangement so that the scene doesn't look as quiet and shabby as it does now.

Dante knew that he actually had no extra time: for the Blood Angels, things happened too suddenly. Whether it was him, Mephiston, or even Coblo, who was called in halfway, they were all too accustomed to setbacks in their past experiences. When Fujimaru Ritsuka brought this matter up, no one thought that the ceremony would be a success on the first try. Her ordinary and frivolous attitude in speaking made everyone except her mistakenly regard it as a one-time event. A preview.

The Chapter Master thought that after today was over, he would have a chance to hold a Chapter meeting on this matter. If Mephiston can confirm that this ritual will indeed work, then more detailed arrangements will be worked out through discussions with relevant people who hold important positions in the Chapter. According to Dante’s experience, he knew that good things might be coming, but good things were more likely to turn into bad things, so he had no real sense of it—until this “good thing” came to the church smoothly and hit him in the face. until.

Will the Space Marines after Primaris also faint due to emotional ups and downs? Dante didn't know, but he was indeed a little dizzy. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Coblo kneeling on the ground with tears in his eyes. This is really a gaffe, but Dante doesn't feel qualified to criticize it. His own senses were also confused, and he could not tell for a moment whether the slight blur in front of his eyes was due to an error in the optical components of the death mask, or because he was also crying in front of the radiant statue of Sanguinius.

Mephiston was not in his current sight, and he could not take his eyes off the statue. There is no doubt that this colossus, which was re-carved by the descendants of the Holy Blood after the war, has extremely high artistic value. He also observed and even examined this statue countless times on various occasions - but Dante never Like now, it feels like a sin to take my eyes away from it.

The statue will not move. Both his common sense and his observations of the environment told Dante the same thing. But he still had a feeling: the head of the statue did not move, but Sanguinius' soft gaze seemed to be looking down from the statue towering under the dome of the main hall; the wings of the statue did not move, but there did seem to be wings in the air. There was a slight sound when rubbing; the face of the statue did not move, but the soft but mellow voice of the archangel mysteriously resounded in their ears and in their hearts at the same time:
"It is a pleasure to meet you, my children." He said this in Gothic with an accent from thousands of years ago that is unfamiliar to today's people. "What makes me even more happy is that in This time when we meet, all of you are still intact."

Dante wanted to say something in response, but when he opened his mouth, all he tasted was the salty taste of his own tears.
