Warhammer 40: My Fiancée Fulgrim

The Ulanor Orc Empire had grown so powerful that it was beyond human comprehension—the Shadowmoon Wolves and the Emperor's Sons alone could not possibly defeat the terrifying greenskins that surged like a tidal wave.

This forced them to rely on Guilliman's blue-skinned orcs as a countermeasure.

"The Shadow Moon Wolf?" The Khan clearly looked troubled.

This is a bit tricky.

“Brother, I heard that you and Horus cooperated extremely closely, and your interactions and tactical exchanges were exemplary among the Primarchs.”

But that's all in the past now.

At some unknown point in time, some unknown events occurred, causing Chagatai Khan to avoid Nahorus from then on and never dare to cooperate with Shadowmoon Wolf again.

This puzzled Guilliman greatly.

Did some conflict occur between them?

—But that shouldn't be the case. Horus is a very kind person. Although Guilliman and Horus didn't cooperate much, he could still feel the other's genuine friendliness and gentleness.

What exactly happened that could frighten Chagatai Khan, a former friend of Horus, like this?

"It's best not to bring it up."

As one of the few humans with normal thinking among the Primarchs, Chagatai felt out of place.

Let's deal with these damned orc empires quickly and then run away!

"So now it's just the two of our legions heading to the Ulanno system together?"

"Do not."

Guilliman looked helpless: "Although the Emperor's orders only include our two legions, it seems that some brothers and sisters are on their way after hearing the news."

"Oh? What does this mean?"

"For the position of War General."

Despite his siblings' perception of Guilliman as a wild and ambitious man who should be guarded against, Guilliman was not without his own.

But he really had no desire to become a war commander or a higher position.

—At least not during the First Empire.

“I have heard about that—with the recent return of our last brother, Alpharis, all the Primarchs have now returned to the Empire, and the position of Expeditionary Commander will be decided soon.”

The Khan is an outsider; he has no intention of becoming a warlord.

"That's why there is now a powerful orc empire in the Ulanno star system, which is more terrifying than any other alien force we have encountered before."

This most glorious achievement is enough to be the deciding factor in the election of the War Commander.

"You mean, only by conquering the Primarch of the Ulanor Orc Empire can one become a Warmaster?"

It seems that among the four Primarch Legions, excluding the marginal Khans and the unsuitable Warmasters Fugrim and Guilliman, only Horus and his Shadowmoon Wolves can enjoy this honor.

"Doesn't this seem a bit like a pre-arranged deal?"

“Who can argue with that?” Guilliman agreed with a smile. “I still believe in Father’s decision—but some of my brothers and sisters are clearly dissatisfied.”

"They are heading towards Ulanor from all directions. To be honest, it will be an unimaginable Primarch battle."

What kinds are there? For example—

“Philus. The Iron Hand has always been a strong contender for the Warmaster position, and she is equally determined to win it.”

“Magnus is also on his way here.”

"Magnus?"

"He's probably just here for the fun. I don't understand this guy's interest in witchcraft—though he's been saying lately that what he uses isn't witchcraft."

Very mysterious.

Nobody knows what strange things he's up to.

"Ok."

The Khan silently pondered this in his mind once again.

Regardless of who becomes the next war commander, he should take the initiative to continue to deploy his war zone to more remote areas.

The more remote the better.

So be it, I'll be a barbarian. As long as I don't have the Centaur Gold Ring, I'll be a primitive man.

"Where are we going next? The star system in the Ulanno sector is the place Father promised us."

"No, Chagatai, our destination is the Tianlong Star Sector. The Emperor, the Shadowmoon Wolves, and the Emperor's Son Legion are all there fighting against the Orc Empire's forces."

"Let's go there and meet up with them first."

“Alright, alright.” Chagatai nodded gently.

In front of the Dalit teleportation portal.

"Prepare for a subspace warp."

Although Chagatai did not know how this stargate teleportation device worked, he was very fond of transportation.

Chagatai especially favored those very fast modes of transportation.

After returning to the Empire, he naturally became very fond of this Dalit cluster stargate.

Subspace teleportation via stargates can save a significant amount of travel time—just like it is now.

In just a few days, they leaped out of the dazzling world of subspace and into the real space of the Tianlong Star Region.

According to previous interstellar communications, the Emperor, Shadowmoon Wolves, and the Emperor's son's warships are currently besieging the orc planet Geron.

If there are no errors in the information, they should be near this landing star system.

"It's over there! Bro! Look to your right! That planet that's off course!"

With the keen eyesight of a steppe eagle, Chagatai quickly spotted the orc planet and the Imperial expeditionary fleet, where a fierce battle was taking place.

The distance was so great that only with his original vision could he perceive the distant planets and Imperial fleet clusters, which appeared as tiny dots.

"Rush to their aid immediately—wait a minute. That orcish planet seems to be disintegrating!"

"We need to get the expeditionary fleet's communications back in order to get some answers."

In this urgent situation, Bladestorm, possessing the strongest mobility, charged forward even faster than Macrag's Radiance.

"But don't worry, I'll share the signal with you."

Chagatai Khan's tone carried a hint of pride.

He and his men from the grasslands are about to engage in the fierce battle that follows.

Then--?

Then, in Robbett Guilliman's vision, the orc planet Geron, which was on the verge of collapse, seemed to erupt with an incomprehensible wave of power—

Then, the entire planet exploded.

"Won?"

Gazing from the distance aboard the Macurag, Guilliman breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the Goron explode like fireworks.

But it seems that the other Primarch has no way to breathe a sigh of relief.

Khan's flagship, the Bladestorm, turned back at an even faster speed than before.

"brother.?"

His terrified expression suggested he had witnessed some indescribable horror.

That's terrifying!

Guilliman couldn't see it, but he saw it all clearly!

Upon receiving the signal from the expeditionary fleet and connecting to their live feed, Chagatai Khan was filled with horror as he discovered just how these guys had managed to defeat the orcs!

"May the Lotus Emperor's Palm grant you eternal life!!!"

The palm strike delivered in that holographic projection not only shattered the heads of those orcs, but also shattered Chagatai Khan's long-held worldview and philosophy of life.

This also shattered Chagatai Khan's last remaining hope that "Horus might not be insane by now!"

The White Scars are a legion that places great importance on art, which is different from the impression others have of them.

In his leisure time, the white-scarred Space Marine often drank wine, recited poetry, and was skilled in calligraphy and painting.

But it's definitely not this kind of art.

Horus Horus has gone mad.

He was completely immersed in his art and couldn't extricate himself from it.

If only Horus had gone mad, the Khan would be saddened, but life would still go on.

But what does it mean that his incredibly awkward Three Wonders of the Lotus King actually worked when dealing with the orcs?

Why do such crazy tricks actually work?

The Chagatai Khan's pupils were trembling.

Could it be that the one who's gone mad isn't Horus, but this treacherous world?!

Does this mean that the best way to deal with orcs in the future is to learn from Horus and use the Horus Triumphs together?

Thinking of this, Chagatai Khan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his heart was ice-cold.

this world!

He's gone mad!!!

The above is Guilliman's record when he arrived in the Dragon Sector.

Although Chagatai Khan was extremely unhappy, the orc chieftain of the Tianlong Star Region had been killed, and the remaining orc stragglers naturally fell into continuous infighting and could no longer pose any threat to them.

The results are truly outstanding!

He could say nothing more about Horus's behavior.

Their next destination will be the Ulanno Star Region.

There, there will be even more terrifying and ferocious orcs than on Goron, and the number of orc planets encountered will be even greater.

They must make thorough preparations before advancing into the Ulanno Star Sector.

Otherwise, even if the emperor himself came, he would have almost capsized under the powerful force of the orcs.

After clearing out the local orc forces, Guilliman and Khan's armies officially joined forces with the expeditionary fleet.

It turned out to be the case.

"This is indeed an effective method."

At the Emperor's request, Guilliman ordered the Ultramarines fleet to disperse to various star systems in the Dragon Sector to wipe out the remaining Orcs. During this time, Guilliman obtained the holographic footage of the battle that had shocked Chagatai Khan.

It does look somewhat unbelievable.

Watching the battle unfold in the holographic projection, Horus saved the Emperor from imminent doom, using the "Three Absolute Techniques of the Horus Emperor"—a technique of unknown origin—to utterly destroy the mecha orc that even the Emperor found difficult to deal with.

Even the other orcs around them died instantly from brain explosions.

It was unbelievable, but it happened right before his eyes.

This alone was enough to increase the number of people calling for him to become a war commander.

But Guilliman saw something else.

—A general solution for dealing with orcs, and even other aliens.

The orc aliens spread and reproduce in the universe through spores, while also photosynthesizing through chloroplasts on their green skins.

It is actually very difficult to completely eradicate the existence of orcs.

If oversight is relaxed even slightly, the Orc Empire will, like it is now in Ulanor (and in the future Beast Wars), grow into an unstoppable and powerful force without anyone noticing.

"It seems that the best way to defeat the orcs in the future is to use the power of the mind, like Horus did, to erase the orcs' Waaaaagh field?"

Guilliman stared at the blank parchment in his hand, lost in thought.

During these days, Guilliman has been trying to record some of his ideas and tactics and bind them into a book for future Space Marine commanders to study and use.

He had even thought of a name for it—"The Astartes Codex".
