Chapter 12: The Red Rage
Authors note: I have heard many complaints about the timeline, first off the time is a wreck in the warp and with space travel you know all that Em=mc2 crap, so when they traveled they experienced time dilation or reduction, so things can happen out of order. Second point the creation of the fracking Eye of the Imperium took half a century, I know I did not put that but to create a cluster of star systems would logically take awhile right? Ok, now with that out of the way we are in the year M 1045 since Ainz was "born" oh yeah one more thing fuuhhhhhkkkk you to all those who poke holes in my stories, nah just kidding I am a total stickler.
Location Segmentum Pacificus (The Lesser Crusade)
"Wahhhhhhhhhhh!" A deafening scream of a hundred thousand Orcs armed with shootaz and every type of cutting and bludgeoning weapon that the Xenos could cobble together with thier crude skills. Martellus looked over the battlefield it was a perfect place to hunt down the last army of the overfiend. They horde of orc had been corralled into a valley with steep cliffs on both sides by harassment raids. The two amies we 100 yards apart and closing fast, Martellus smiled as everything was going to plan. The Imperial army had 10,000 death knights supported by 500 Chaos Marines while the Orcs were number in the hundreds of thousands. The battle was by all tactical appearance supposed to be a rout in the eyes of the enemy commander or Overfiend of the sub sector or was until to his utter dismay and rage a strange 12 foot tall winged golden General not only took each of his planets but killed each one of his commanders or boss boys in single combat with one single strike then allowed one Orc to tell the tale.
The Overfiend Blacktooth had to kill four off his other boss boys in challenge as his leadership was confronted as week and combat was the only way to pick the strongest. The flaw with this is that the strongest was not most likely the best General but the Orcs were never the brightest and that was for the best. As Blacktooth looked over the battle on the other side of the valley he saw the saw the a flash of gold as the accursed enemy general slammed own in front of the line leading the charge. He had a thrill of excitement and something else his Orc brain could not register it but if he were not a green skin we would have recognized the feeling it was fear. It was not exactly fear but desire for self preservation as deep within that primitive brain he simply could not understand this enemy in front of his was far more powerful than he could fathom.
The two armies closed into range and first blood was drawn by the Imperial Army's chaos marine dreadnought opened fire with there storm bolters. A massive spray of green mist exploded into the first three ranks as Orc were reduced to gore and spray but this did not slow them down. As the dreadnoughts continued the slaughter the Orcs moved onto the ranged of the Terminators armored chaos Marines that were considered the most elite, a second volley of fire began cutting like a great scythe further into the ranks. The slaughter was so great that the Orcs running at full speed could no longer advance on the Imperial line, the only thing that did reach the line was a inch deep river of green blood passing past the Dreadnoughts feet. Normally a pile of Orc bodies would have provided cover for the Xenos but the intensity of the incoming fire was so brutal that nothing but small pieces of Orc flesh was all that was left.
As effective as the storm bolters and other long range weapons worked they only was a limit supply of rounds so when the weapons ran dry the second phase of the battle started. The Orcs by this point had lost over a third of the the forces, as the dreadnoughts prepared thier flamers and chain sword the Chaos Marines prepared for close combat standing side by side with the death knights. The Orcs unfazed by seeing countless of thier own kind slaughtered advanced over the remains of kin, as the closed in the Orcs we screaming with bloodlust as melee combat was there preferred method of fighting. Then the two armies made contact and it made the sound of a starship smashing to the ground from orbit, death knights were slashing three to five orcs slitting them in half and screaming with glee. The Chaos Marines were filling in the lines engaging anything they would try to break through the line of the death knights, firing thier bolt pistols and evisorating any orc that they crossed blades with. Gouts of flaming prometioum fron dreadnoughts and Marines spew into the mass of tide of green Orcs as they screams and slashed anything in there way friend or foes before turning into a charred corpses rent and twisted.
In the middle of this mass of choatic battle was a blur of gold that was the Primarch moving to fast for even trans-human eyes let a lone the brutish Orcs. The Primarchs mind was so exceptional that even the most the Fabicator general of New Mars who was the most augmented being in the Imperium could not hold even imagine to come close to the processing power his gene-enhanced brain could proform. He was not only in the mental connection and command of the Death knights so they would not break formation and go beserk but was updating orbital command to perform the exact cordination of orbitial bombardments for the fleet from space as well as advising the legistical supposrt of the steements and defense platforms for the planet while fighting. For the enemy by the time they would see the Primarch advance towards them they were alread dead, one certain warboss of his clan saw the enemy general coming and pushed the closest ally in front of him so he could get a clean strike on him while he was gutting his ally. The brute that stood head and soulders above all although brunted when the general cut the Orc in front of him in half and raised his axe to strike but his arms would not respond then the ground fell toward him as his head was cut from his body. The Primarch had already struck down the warlords retune by the time the warbossed head hit the ground.
The dark army moved on step by step hacking of head and biseting Orcs spraying up great guixers of green blood, seen form above it looked as if the great army of transhumans and death knights were slimply cutting down a forrest. A gold blur shot through the Orc army, as Blacktooth brain registered that the Boss Hummie, son of the Emprah was upon him he had enough time to grip his Choppa in time to be bisceted. Behind him the battle was going as planned and turned into a rout this planet was free now diplomacy began.
Martellus walked down the path of cobble stones created by the many species that lived on this planet, upon seeing the soldiers from the stars they fell under the rule of the Imperium without a fight. As he walked in his adorned Golden Terminator Armor that was now adorned with a golden halo attached behind his head along with his wings gave him a almost etheric look, the only thing to spoil the entire theme was to look at his face, stern, glowing red eye, and a look of total disinterest. The truth was he did not hate these people, or viewed them as inferior as they were only in the bronze age of technology, in his mind being was that either they a threat or not, and they were not. He would not want to admit it but he was a little disappointed there was no fight in this world and he lusted for battle and found not even though he would not admit this to himself. Behind him where his Captains of his five companies of Chaos Space Marines, his two sons who had not earned the right to walk behind him because they have distinguished themselves in battle, behind them one hundred thousand fallen made into Death Knights. In the ships above the planet were an acountable amount of mixed race gaurdsman form countless worlds awiating orders.
Martellus looked at the rudamentary throne set up for him made from stone, he promply took out his hammer and obliterated it. The Kings of the land tembled in fear as they thought they had just brought the rath of a God upon them due to unpleasing him, Martellus turned around and said, "Being of this world, I will first say many say that I am a god, but I am nothing compaired to the master I serve! He is the one and only true God and Emperor, inheiritor of the Galaxy born from the Universe to bring order, the True and only God Emperor Ainz Ooal Gown. All shall worship him as I do, I distroyed your acient throne where the King of this world once sat to tell you to errect a temple to him. He shall come and if he is displeased he had the power to make and create worlds, I am not a priest of the ecclesiarcy and they shall be left here to show you the way." He stepped down while motioning Pontiff Nix, now a old lady bent over in her vesments, it was declaired that she would not be granted Immortaility nor any Pontiff of the Church of Nazarick that shall come after. She was at the end of her life now with her childhood friend by her side that had tranformed into an angel and would serve every she climbesd up the eneven stone steps she sighed, she was one of the oldest humans alive with access to all the best augmetics and juviant treatments but her life was nearing its end. She was filled with regret that she spent her life in vain try to consolisate power barely ever leave Holy Terra and now at the end of her life she petitoned to be able to go on Martellus black crusade and see worlds never seen by Imperial she approached Martellus in the Fortess Monestary in Tempest she made a long speech about how it would be good for the Imperium for the church to accompany them and have the highest authority to ordain the crusade. During the twenty minute speech Matellus did not move or say a word, all was said and done he just shook his head and approval and went back to work. She was enraged but such were the times and balance of power was and saw herself out, the truth was Martellus was feeling just as useless behind a desk at the time behind a desk not being on the great crusade.
Martellus nodded and turned around to one of his captains, instinclity knowing what Titus said said, "We have pacified all of the most fringe systems in Segmentium Pacificus." he said will standing to attentioin. Matellus cocked his head his captain was fully capabile in battle but his attention to detail of the finer points was off he could care less about this crusade of conquering minor worlds although there were some major battles with greenskins, he wanted to know about knews from the Emperor.
"Titus has the shift, rotted your mind? What of the news of the Emperor and the great crusade?" Martellus spat with a bitter taste in his mouth.
"Yes, Master the astropaths have gotten the report of the nearing completion of the conquest of the hive fleet is almost complete, they are assulting the major planets now, brother Leman had been given the honor of the hardest task, my Primarch." Titus said with a slight temor in his voice as he knew that this could make his master fly into a rage as all knew he was the Warmaster and his place was by the Emperors side not on some backwater tour of the universe.
"Humm." Tapping his chin as he clenched his other fist so hard his enourmus glauntlet started his spark under the strane of him tightening his fist.
"Let us start our conquest of Segmentuim Obscurus to the planet of Cadia, the fotrest world as the Emperor requested and promised us some obsecen foes, I hear that warp spawn flow from the eye of terror." He said as he smashed his hands together making a loud crash sound that caused everyone to flinch.
When Martellus and his retenue bagan to walk over to his ship a young naval officer ran up to them got on one knee and bowed, "Lord, we have commincation from the Great fleet and a message of the highest priority." he said panting as drops of sweat poured down his face. Titus walked up to the officer ready to kill him for his informality but Martellus waved him off.
"See his crest on his shoulder, Titus? He is a navigator from my house, yes one of my sons that caries one of my genes as you do, well then about the commuique, I shall take in a my pleasure." Martellus said.
"Master, it is from the Emperor he is waiting for you as we speak!
