Standard Terra Calendar, 953.M41

Storm Star Territory, Nessen System, Nessun 4 Planet, Astral Knight Monastery Fortress

Compared with wearing power armor, Bahram in civilian clothes is obviously easier to impress - even among the many recruits, and they have not yet taken off their armor.

The recruits have just finished a day of live-fire training and are summarizing the gains and losses of the training.

Bahram pointed out that a new recruit should receive gentle punishment, but all the young Astartes felt was a gentle reprimand. Bahram was as always an approachable warrior.

".The tactical policy established earlier was not to engage in hand-to-hand combat, Allen, and you have good reason to carry a bolter instead of trying to solve the problem with a dagger."
< br>"I understand, Captain."

Bahram smiled and sat down on the bench.

"So how did you convince your team members to carry out a risky plan with you?"

The young warrior also smiled.

“I told them, rules or no rules, winning is the only measure of success.”

“Really?”

“Of course!”

The soldier clenched his big fist tightly.

"The most important thing in war is the final result. If there is no victory..."

"Then there is no point."

Nearby, Haoma rubbed his gray short hair with his hand jaw.

"Such a 'tactic' comes from a brat. I'm afraid I'll be dizzy with fear. Have you never thought that your victory was achieved by violating plans and disciplines?"

The recruit's eyes ducked to the side under the veteran's ridicule, but Bahram caught the moment, laughed softly, and softened.

"Alan, you must forgive Hao Mo. At his age, a sharp tongue is the only sword he can still use skillfully."

Hao Mo pretended to be in pain and clutched his chest tightly.

“Oh, an arrow to my heart, from my own captain, such a tragedy.”

Bahram kept a calm smile, but in reality, he could Feeling the tiredness of old friends pretending to be witty, it is not an easy job to lead new recruits.

"You have all done well today, and soon you will be qualified to be the instruments that will inscribe the Emperor's will into the galaxy."

None of the other recruits spoke, each of them silent, their faces turned toward Bahram's shoulder.

As he looked around, trying to figure out why the recruits were kneeling, a voice spoke.

"Battle Captain of the Tenth Company, Bahram."

Until then, Bahram realized that he had not heard the arrival of the Chapter Master, which made him uneasy.

Bahram stood up, turned around, bowed deeply to the Chapter Commander, and vaguely realized that Instructor Sol was also beside him, and there was a servant, a woman, hiding in the battle. Behind the leader.

"Chapter Commander."

Soshiyang's face smiled slightly.

"Armin has spoken very highly of your team recently."

Bahram did not dare to raise his head. Like him, Soshyan was not wearing power armor; Ordinary robe.

Nonetheless, even in such simple clothes, no one could mistake his presence.

"Brother, there is no need for such etiquette. This is not a king's court."

Bahram straightened his body, looked into Soshyan's deep black eyes, and determined not to retreat.

Then, he felt Soshiyang's eyes piercing deeply into his body, and felt that his heart seemed to be tightly held by slender fingers, being weighed and considered. . Bahram felt like a frog at the bottom of a well. An ordinary person's nerves might collapse under such scrutiny.

"You have done a good job in the recruit training this whole year. It has been a long time since I came to the recruit company to take a look."

"Chapter Master, I don't deserve anything special-"

"This is just a refusal on your part, isn't it? False modesty is not welcome."

"I Just a servant of the emperor."

Bahram responded with some reluctance:

"This is honorable enough."

Soshyan let out a deep laugh and put his hand on Bahram's back.

“Come on, Bahram, let’s talk as we walk.”

When they walked to the ramp leading to the balcony above the weapons depot, Bahram looked back and saw only that They were followed by a mysterious long-haired woman wearing a veil, who was said to be the Chapter Master's narrator - Loken occasionally mentioned tidbits about her and the Chapter Master, but Bahram never took them seriously.

“I know you don’t like things like praise, but you must understand that honor is sometimes necessary, soldiers must know that they are valuable, and when the time comes, be sure to praise your colleagues and Subordinates, without which even the most determined person will eventually feel worthless.”

Soshyan led him to the edge of the balcony, where they looked down on the large group of people.

The entire recruit company is down there. Everyone has just finished a whole day of training and has just been disbanded. Some people are still gathering together in twos and threes to talk about something.

Bahram saw Robin, Oscar and Zod.

“I’ve heard, Bahram, that a lot of people talk about you being a kind man, a man who cares more about others than yourself, and how quickly you united your squad around yourself after taking over There is no one around you who doesn’t recognize your organizational ability.”

Soshiyan then sighed.

"For me, the unity of the Chapter is important, a battle is coming that will test us all."

"I will be ready."

Bahram thought for a while and suddenly realized the reason why he was summoned by Soshyan.

The Eleventh Company of the Chapter, a brand new reconnaissance company, Armin once mentioned this matter to him, and Bahram expressed confusion about it at the time.

"Chapter Commander, are you doing it for the 11th Company?"

Soshiyang turned around and looked at him with a deep look.

"I want to know what you really think, Bahram."

Bahram took a deep breath, and then whispered:

"We are the Astartes, Chapter Master, The Master of Mankind has guided us on this path. Our mission is to protect humanity, to illuminate the lost, and to punish the fallen and xenos. If we do these things openly and candidly, in the light of the Emperor, then I have no doubt that we will prevail in the end because justice is on our side...but if any of it is hidden in the shadows, even the smallest part, we may be led astray."

He took a shuddering breath and noticed Soshyan staring at him intently.

“Although the new company has its value, it is built on a dark foundation. I have reservations about this.”

After a long time, Soshyan nodded slightly.

“Thank you for your candor, Bahram.”

He paused.

"Sergeant Bahram, there is a new order now."

Hearing these words, Bahram felt a nervous tremor in his chest and wondered if he had said something wrong. .
