[For the God-Emperor...]

Esmond couldn't help but laugh when he heard Tau'oul speak.

He found it hilarious that Yautja seemed far too eager for battle, even suggesting sending their young in battle already.

Not wanting to seem rude or to appear as if he was laughing at them, Esmond told the confused Elders what was going on in his mind.

"… I was laughing at the fact that the ones you wish to send into battle have yet to complete training and even then… they are all enjoying their time within the space.

If you want to convince me to send the young, why not bring a representative that speaks for your youth?"

Esmond made a good point that even another Elder had pointed out.

The Elder wanted to call out his brothers for their foolish thoughts denying his original plan but chose to remain quiet in front of his Lord until he noticed Esmonds eyes were focused on him.

"Gas'tabth…"

"Yes, My Lord…"

"Tell me your thoughts…?"

All of the Elders were paying attention to Gas'tabth, their fellow brother that had warned them earlier about bringing along the youth.

With a heavy sigh, Gas'tabth explained his thoughts on what should be done with the youth as well as those that were Elites and wasting away in the space.

"My Lord…

I've been thinking… could it be possible to create a separate military branch or order for the Yautja.

I understand your idea plans for inclusion at all levels of the Empire, but I believe it would be best if we could separate the Yautja from the rest… at the very least within Stovi."

Esmond gestured for Gas'tabth to continue speaking now that Esmond was intrigued by what Gas'tabth had to say.

.

"Currently we have a couple hundred Elites that aren't doing much more then training within the Military Education Training Pods.

Along with the young who have yet to taste what true battle is, why not take them into Stovi and create an order or military system for them alone which directly serve you.

Of course, no one would ever dare go against your Order, but by giving them some freedom and discretion, I have no doubt the Vaadan Region and beyond would be under our control."

Esmond actually planned on bringing back the squad that was sent with Levas and Hari so they could be redeployed elsewhere.

The idea was to send the Undead to level up in the dangerous areas since the Droids and their Profiles couldn't level up within the world of Stovi.

After listening to Gas'tabth, Esmond felt it would be the right decision to send the Predators along with Levas and Hari, however he wasn't sure how they would find it living with the Yautja.

'Screw it… he'll be fine…' Esmond thought to himself before coming to a decision about the Yautja.

"From now on, you will all send you people into the Military Education Training Pods to train however they will be given a reprieve from them when they enter Stovi."

Esmond chose to shorten the time all of the current Yautja in the Military Education Training Pods had to stay within them as a majority would be heading over to Stovi.

Some of the Elders chose to volunteer and join those that would be heading over to Stovi like Tau'oul.

Gas'tabth chose to instead stay within the space to look after the Yautja people, especially the youth.

He also wanted to try out the Dungeons that had been created within the Spatial Ark Star World by Carter and the other A.I Spirits with the various types of beasts that were currently in the space.

There were too many things to see in the space already, making it more and more difficult to get around to everything even after being within the space for a little while now.

Gas'tabth had long wanted to head over to the Hunting Grounds Generator and try his own luck at the space facility, but he had to wait since his position didn't allow him a great deal of freedom.

.

Esmond left the Elders to make their own choices regarding who would be going and when, while he went back home to the Cabin.

Carter had called him home so they could rest before the end of the day as it was getting late.

A large part of the plan back at home was playing a game and seeing what the rewards were but Esmond also became quite tempted to see what his stored Daily Wheel of Chance spins could offer him.

There were nine days' worth of spins banked so far and the temptation was there to press the spin button, but Esmond backed off.

He was too curious to see what reward would be gifted after 30 days' worth of credit was stored, so Esmond minimised the system interface and shifted to the cabin.

Heading over straight to the lounge room, Carter was watching a television show while waiting for Ben's arrival.

"… Ready to go?"

"At all times, Esy…

Let's go."

Carter switched the channel of the television and turned on the gaming console as the game came on the screen.

"… Now this…

… This is what Hardcore should always be…" Esmond had already equipped his CE-01 Armoured Suit and even equipped his MAR-01 Rifle.

All around Esmond could see a red hue that filled the sky, making it seem like he was in hell.

The landscape wasn't spared either because it all seemed to be ruined from warfare and battles.

Massive holes from bombs and other ammunition had left their scar on the surface of the planet just as much as the humans had to fuel their ever-growing hunger for domination throughout space.

'You need to move now!

As much as I would like to say its fine to relax, Esmond you need to reach the Imperial Temple as soon as possible.'

Carter could tell the people who were after the Maledictum Stone would soon reach it.

The Orks would be in Esmonds way along the path to the Imperial Temple, so he decided to go all out against them.

With the rifle in one hand and his trusty sidearm in the other, Esmond used his speed and accuracy to quickly shave away at the number of Orks, mainly aiming at their heads for an instant kill shot.

The tough skin of the Orks were easily penetrated by the Energy bullets of the MAR-01 and sidearm.

Esmond wanted to actually fight with his Greatsword he'd recently created but Carter warned him about the Orks natural ability to empower themselves as more of their race gathered together.

Trying to be quick and deadly, Esmond was tearing apart the Orks over the next 10 minutes it took him to reach the Imperial Temple.

Along the way he fought against some members of the Alpha Legion Chaos Forces however he couldn't land a decisive hit that would kill any of them.

"That… is horseshit!" Esmond cursed while falling behind some cover.

By his own accounts, at least 16 Orks were killed while 15 had been injured from the battle.

Esmond knew he had roughly 25 minutes still, but it was getting more dangerous the closer he got to the Imperial Temple.

Eventually the sight of the Blood Raven Space Marines fighting against the traitorous Alpha Legion came into view, leaving Esmond with little option but to attack the Chaos Forces.

Because the Alpha Legion Chaos Forces had their backs to Esmond, he made quick work of quite a few targets before he found some cover.

Now that they were being attacked from two sides, the Alpha Legion Chaos Forces got more aggressive and started using certain powers to help empower them through the battle.

Esmond could easily sense the change in the air as the Xrian organisms within him reacted to the change in the environment, warning him that things would be more troubling soon.

Understanding the direction of dread came from the Alpha Legion Chaos Forces, Esmond decided to use other parts of his powers.

Using his enormous reserve of Mana, Esmond controlled the ground to shape itself around the enemy before hardening.

Knowing what he wanted the Earth Element to do, Esmond created a strong image of the Earth Element in his mind and how he would shape and move it according to his will.

Because he was bypassing the formation of a spell and instead was manipulating the Element, the Lifeforce Control ability really helped Esmond control the Element without a problem.

However, Ben considered it cheating and a shortcut way to increase his power for short gains instead of building a decent foundation.

Especially with huge power increase from the Golden Sentry Serum, Esmond understood the need to reenforce his foundation.

.

Esmond sent out his Internal Body Energy which flowed with the natural environment of the world.

By the will of Esmond, he tried to absorb the little moisture in the air to create small Ice Needles that were being charged with the Wind Element.

They targeted the bound Alpha Legion Chaos Forces and when Esmond let the Ice Needles go at their targets, they pierced through the armour of the enemy, and entered the body of the assailants.

Because the number of needles shot at the Alpha Legion Chaos Forces were great in number since Esmond decided to not hold back using his Mana Pool, a decent portion of the enemy forces were dead.

Both to the shock of the Alpha Legion Chaos Forces who were beginning to be fearful of the single warrior that was shaving away at their numbers, and the Blood Raven who were wondering about where the allegiances of the one-man army laid.

Some of them thought about attacking the one-man army, but their commander told them to advance and leave the individual alone for now.
