Chapter 1163: The Good Son Returns Home.

In the Andromeda Galaxy, in Imperial Territory, on a planet overrun by an alien infestation, a fleet of more than 50 ships could be seen. On the largest of them, an explorer-class spaceship, were two important individuals.

"The world tree of the planet is already safe. This planet has been Imperial territory since the 1000th Imperial Millennium and recently awakened a new unregistered species."

"Targets identified, and analysis shows that this species has planet-level destructive potential. Common characteristics: high reproduction, high adaptation. Request received: the Fourth Legion requested a sample of the species. Request accepted. Sending Spartans."

"Wait... I will go."

The lead operator who was beside him quickly spoke: "Commander, it is not recommended-."

"I’m bored, and it’s a request from a friend."

’I just wanted to enjoy the sci-fi experience. I never thought it would be so boring when there was no war, although space itself is interesting.’ The man thought. ’Soon I have to leave here and return home.’

"I will go too." The other man, who was standing with his arms crossed, spoke. Soon, the two men in all-black Imperial armor, with gold and red accents, walked toward the launch platform.

"... Orders." The operator asked.

"Put it in the record: I tried to stop them." She wasn’t going to take responsibility for others’ recklessness.

"Yes."

"Prepare the orbital cannons and the Spartans. These two individuals must not be harmed." If they were harmed, her job could be in danger, and she really liked her current position.

"Yes!"

"Beginning launch sequence 3... 2... 1... Launch."

Two trails made of pure crimson fell from the stratosphere toward the planet. The other ships did not stay behind, and soon several unidentified objects also began falling from the stratosphere.

The first two crimson objects separated in the sky and fell far from each other, creating a gigantic crater in the ground.

Skreeeeee!

Several alien creatures, more than 10 meters tall, approached to devour the new, appetizing prey.

The man in armor, more than 2 meters tall, pulled a sword from his waist. It was a western sword made of pure technology. The blade began to vibrate at high intensity, and he swung his arm, splitting the creature in half as easily as butter.

More creatures came toward him, and in an enormous quantity.

Even without taking out a talisman, he conjured an Onmyoujutsu spell in less than a second: "By the Emperor, I am here on a battlefield! God of war, give me strength. Order!"

His body was bathed in pure violet energy as the western sword became a greatsword of pure energy, and he jumped into the middle of the enemies and began to dance with them. Spinning that enormous sword, he cut them easily. They had no chance at all, but the creatures were many and countless.

He jumped into the air, raised the sword in the air, and attacked with a pure beam that flew in a straight line and created a huge crater. The continent was split in half, thus creating a new continent.

"We will need to redo some parts of the planet when they are finished." The operator spoke neutrally. Luckily, this was a territory that had no life, therefore, such actions were not a problem. And their technology could easily remake the planet into an ideal state.

The name of this warrior was one of the Emperor’s closest friends, Frederick Winter. Leader of the Onmyo warriors, a profession that became popular because the Emperor’s wife, Mizuki Elderblood, and the goddess queen of the Shinto pantheon, Amaterasu Elderblood, actively promoted it, and in this profession, one of the best-known and highest-ranked warriors was Frederick Winter.

He was not only one of the Emperor’s known friends, but also a disciple of the Goddess Mizuki Elderblood herself. The Empire’s religion practically idolized him because he was one of the mortals closest to God. Because of this connection, people saw him as an unofficial Pope of the religion.

If Mizuki was the Dragon Goddess who created these warriors, Fred, as her disciple, was their leader.

"Fred, you are exaggerating, you opened a new continent. You should capture them. Not exterminate them." A heavy voice was heard.

Frederick looked up toward the hill: "... There are so many, we can do that at any time."

"And as a man of faith, you don’t need words, Fred. It seems your Weeb phase did not die in you." The man complained. A long time ago, both he and Fred mastered the art of using their powers without chants, but even so, Fred uses chants.

"There are two types of men in the world, those who hide their inner child and those who always show it. I am the second."

"... And I am the First." The lens of the armor glowed red.

Using the enchantments of the old faction The Inquisitors, with a different touch, after all, he was indeed from the Inquisition, but from the Imperial Inquisition.

"God Emperor, I renounce this mortal body and will become your divine instrument." The man’s body began to glow golden, and then he raised his hand to the sky.

Golden lightning that seemed to pass through space and time fell directly into the man’s hand, and soon, this lightning covered the man’s entire body.

"I will show your mercy to the enemy scum." Two swords of pure plasma were created in his hand. Taking the two weapons with an inverted grip, he advanced toward the enemies. With the cacophonous sound of thunder, the enemies were atomized from existence, unable to even understand how they died. Soon, fire, ice, and blood exploded in all directions. He essentially became a mini-Victor in his vampire form.

"And he says I’m exaggerating." Fred rolled his eyes, seeing his friend go around the planet several times and kill everything in sight.

The name of this man was Andrew Walter, the Emperor’s best friend, and, just like Fred, he was also seen as the unofficial Pope, and, just like his friend, he was also part of the Imperial Inquisition.

The Onmyo warriors and the Inquisition warriors were essentially the same thing. They all fell under the command of the Emperor’s apprentice, Supreme Priestess Valeria Alekerth, leader of the Empire’s official religion. Though they had similar abilities, they still differed in some ways and often worked together.

Fred’s Onmyo was more versatile and allowed him to use the powers of any god, even if they were in another pantheon. Andrew’s powers were pure brute force, as he borrowed power directly from the Emperor and those recognized as his pantheon. In other words, he could borrow the powers of Victor, Violet, and all the other gods of the Dragon Nest.

Which was essentially the same thing, because although other pantheons existed, such as the Shinto, biblical, and Hindu pantheons, they were all under the Emperor. So technically speaking, Andrew should be able to borrow the powers of these gods as well.

But... That was not exactly how it worked. Yes, they were essentially under the Empire, but they weren’t from the Emperor’s pantheon. Andrew could only borrow the powers of the Dragon Gods who were under the direct command of the Emperor.

For example, he could borrow the powers of Amaterasu and Kali because they were dragon goddesses and part of the Dragon Nest, but he couldn’t borrow the power of the God Susanoo or Shiva because his technique recognized them as belonging to another pantheon.

Of course, none of these techniques were easy to master, and the requirements were extremely high. The Inquisition technique needed a lot of faith to work, and the Onmyo techniques needed the permission of the said God to use their powers. Both techniques also require years of training to reach the level these two have achieved.

But Fred and Andrew were an anomaly: as friends of the Emperor, they were essentially free from these restrictions and could use their powers as they wished. In a way, the two were beings blessed by Victor, which is why they were so popular, and currently, both were at a planetary level of power.

Their basic powers alone gave them super strength, super endurance, and flight. That alone made them a mini-Superman, add their techniques, and the threat of both jumped directly to another level. The two of them were considered elites because both of their threat levels were at V-05; that is, if they used all their power, they could destroy an entire solar system.

One minute after Andrew began his slaughter, the Spartans fell onto the planet. Although they were only basic soldiers, they easily stood more than 2 meters tall, while elites like John and his Bloodhunter brothers measured between 3 and 4 meters.

"Orders, Commander."

Completely changing his demeanor, Fred assumed a serious and cold posture.

"Take control of the largest continents of this planet, and prepare the transport for extraction." Fred did not want to waste time on this mission.

"Andrew, come here." With a thunderous sound, Andrew appeared beside him.

"Let’s pacify everything with <Order>." Fred sheathed the sword at his waist.

"Understood."

Andrew went first, as his body began to glow in pure gold: "O Goddess Empress, turn this chaotic world into a world of order."

Just like Andrew, Fred’s body glowed with pure golden power: "O Goddess of Order, illuminate this world of evil, and bring peace and balance. Order!"

In a moment, a crown flew upward, and soon the translucent image of a five-and-a-half-meter-tall Dragon Goddess was present behind them. She was wearing a white divine dress with violet tones.

[Fufufu~, so it was you who were calling me.] She spoke in the minds of the two.

The Spartan soldiers, and even the operators who were watching everything, widened their eyes in shock and immediately placed their right hand over their heart in an Imperial salute. "Goddess Empress!"

Fred and Andrew were sweating like pigs underneath their armor. They never thought Violet would come personally. The reason for their nervousness was that... They knew very well how unpredictable the Empress was.

[Stay calm, I am not here. It is only a projection of me.] She laughed, and the smile passed to her double as she looked at everyone and spoke into their minds.

[Thank you for the work, my subjects.]

Everyone immediately became less nervous, and immensely happier and more at ease.

’This never fails.’ She thought. It was incredible how a little recognition and a fair attitude could raise everyone’s loyalty to the ceiling. The gods were very incompetent for not understanding something so basic. Or they understood, but their arrogance led to their ruin.

Violet looked at the planet, and then at the alien creatures. Reading Andrew and Fred’s memories, she understood the situation and immediately completed the enchantment of both, but she did not stop there. She looked at this solar system and searched for more alien life, and when she found nothing, she turned her attention back to the planet.

A white staff with golden accents, embellished with a violet jewel on the handle, appeared in her hand. The crown on her head spun as her eyes shone slightly in violet tones, and her translucent body grew until she was 1346 meters tall.
