"My name is Karl Franz, many people call me the Emperor."

"Like you, I was born into this world, a world where war and chaos will never stop."

"Fortunately, the empire built by human hope and courage stands here."

"But the empire was undermined by conspiracy, divided by greed, and perpetually on the defensive."

"This is all over now."

According to the prophecies of the Heavenly Mages, the spies on the Norse Peninsula, and the experience gained every three hundred years.

Karl Franz was very aware of one thing, that the Empire would face a Chaos invasion during his term of office.

But who will be the initiator of this chaos invasion?

Is it the Norse tribe called the World Walkers? Ulfric the Wanderer has raised a Norse army and now harasses the northern part of the empire from time to time.

Is it the Troll King named Thorgron? His subordinates are all Chaos creatures corrupted by Chaos, and they will attack the Empire without any reason.

Is it the Imperial knight named Archaon who defected from the Empire and established his own power in Norsca in the north?

Are they the Chaos brothers of the Dwarves? They have always been in the Dark Lands, and like their Dwarven cousins, have no interest in the outside world.

Could it be that the Chaos Gods and their demons have come to the world themselves?

I don’t know, everything is unknown. The only people Karl Franz can refer to are Sigma and Magnus.

After Sigmar established the empire after the Battle of Blackfire Pass, he led the new empire to fight against Nagash. After defeating Nagash, he continued north to fight Chaos.

He also killed the Eternal God and almost exterminated the Norse people.

Back then, Magnus unified the divided empire and led all the soldiers and civilians who obeyed his call to form two armies.

The alliance of the four races, including the Dwarves, High Elves, and Kislev, successfully repelled the Chaos invasion and killed the Everchosen.

So, in this destined Chaos invasion, who will be chosen by the Four Chaos Gods as the Eternal Chosen?

I don’t know. Even the Wizard of Heaven cannot give a prediction. All the Empire can do now is to increase its military strength and prepare for the Chaos invasion that is bound to break out in the future.

As for Windlow, he completed his mission and returned north to his fiefdom of Oster, thinking about how to make money in the future.

It was also at this time that a tavern in such a town welcomed two guests he was familiar with.

"Wendalo! You're not dead. I thought you were burned to death in the Glenburg fire!"

The first thing he noticed when he looked up was his fellow countryman, Markus Kruber, who was wearing the uniform of the Imperial Provincial Army.

"This person's spending is charged to me."

After raising his hand to signal the bartender, Wendlow walked over and sat opposite his fellow villager.

Before, I had only heard that he had joined the army in various provinces of the empire, but now I know that this old friend was serving in Ostland.

As expected, they came from the same village and both of them have achieved success in their careers.

Windlo made money by doing business and donated money to obtain the title of baron.

Markus Kruber was promoted to sergeant due to his military merits and abilities, and commanded a team of imperial swordsmen in combat.

As for why he gave up his sergeant's rank and command to come here, Marcus did not say much, but pointed to the other two people sitting next to him and introduced them.

"This is my employer, keep your voice down, he's a witch hunter."

"And that one is the mage prisoner he captured."

Just as Marcus said, he did not come alone. The two people beside him were a witch hunter named Victor and a wizard prisoner named Siena.

Their purpose is also very simple.

According to the investigation, the mage named Siena violated many imperial laws.

Including but not limited to burning down villages, arson, studying necromancy, skipping classes, not completing homework, etc.

Although witch hunters can kill wild mages without any psychological burden or legal punishment, this mage named Siena obviously has a student status at the Imperial Mage Academy.

In order not to offend the Imperial Mage Academy, she had to be escorted back to Rick Territory for trial.

The three of them will pause here for a while, and then return to Rickland, arriving at the city of Uberrick first, and then make plans.

Windlow knew this witch hunter named Victor. A few years ago, this guy was hunting vampires, but now he has turned to hunting wizards.

He is worthy of being a witch hunter, fighting against vampires and chaos forces all his life.

But as for the witch hunter, it is best not to say too much to him, otherwise he may easily suspect that he has chaos corruption and then punish him directly.

However, the handcuffs used by witch hunters to restrain wizards aroused Windlow's interest. He could sense a hint of strange magical power from them.

"These are magic-forbidden handcuffs. You don't need to be curious about their origins. Any wizard who is bound by such handcuffs will be unable to use magic power."

Victor just explained, then took a sip of the drink that Windlo treated him to, and expressed his gratitude for Windlo's treat.

Generally speaking, witch hunters would be feared and kept away wherever they went, so it was already great for them to have a tavern to do their own business.

We have to finish our meal quickly and leave, otherwise we will have more troubles at night.

This long-lost reunion with fellow villagers lasted only more than half an hour.

After the reorganization, the three of them set out on their journey to the city of Uberrick, leaving Windlow alone in a daze.

Yes, after Mousse left, he never carried out any team operations again. His long-term business career also made him develop the habit of not staying in one place for too long.

I will definitely stay in my territory until I die, so it is better to go out while the territory is still in the development stage and there are not too many problems.

How about giving your business career a nice ending?

Kislev? Never mind. It will definitely face Chaos Impact first, and the people there are dishonest in business.

Dwarves? Forget it. Although dwarves are honest, trading in the mountains is really too hard. It is difficult to set out without a good route.

Bretonnia? The Holy Grail Knight had warned himself before that Bretonnia was currently in the midst of a civil war and it would be best not to go there.

Go to Ulthuan to find Mousse? Not to mention whether you can find her, and there are no tickets for Altdorf to Ulthuan right now.

After thinking about it, Wendlow only had one last choice, which was
