Star Wars: The Holy Empire - Chapter 85

“Sorry, you have no choices in this matter.” I said as I used [Force Pull] to drag Luku Dund towards me and grabbed on to the top of his head and started using [Mind Control].

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”cried Luku Dund

Soon, all five Neimoidians became mindless puppets in the palm of my hand.

“We greet the Holy Emperor” said Luku Dund and the 4 Neimoidians bowing on one knee.

“It’s kind of scary seeing this.” said Pre Vizsla “You didn’t use this on me, did you?” .

“No, I didn’t .” I said “You still have your free will, while these 5 do not. You aren’t calling, the Holy Emperor are you?”

“True, I still have my free will but for some reason, I feel that I am becoming compliant to you.” said Pre Vizsla

“It’s probably because I have such great charisma.” I said jokingly.

When I said that, Pre Vizsla gave me a ‘what the hell are you saying’ look.

“Can you be a little serious.” said Pre Vizsla

“Ok, ok. Enough joking around but if I told you to kill yourself right now, would you?” I asked

“No, I wouldn’t.” said Pre Vizsla

“Then you aren’t Mind Controlled.” I said “Because anyone under my [Mind Control] will do what ever I say.”

“OK, I am willing to except that then.” said Pre Vizsla

“Now, let’s get back to my plan.” I said turning to Luku Dund and the 4 Neimoidians “You five will each transfer 10 million credits to Pre Vizsla.”

“50 million credits!” shouted out Pre Vizsla “That kind of money will be of great help support our Order. We can buy new and improved weaponry, rations, tools and many other things.”

“Of course, that’s why I am having the money transferred to you so you can help increase and improve our .” I said “So, when you report this incident, you will tell your superiors that your 50 mercenary bodyguards turned out to be pirates who gained your trust just to robbed you and ransom you for your money. They were somehow able to disable all of the B1s but you don’t know how they did it”

“Yes, my Emperor.” replied the 5 Neimoidians

“Once you get back to Pure Neimoidia and report to your superiors, you will begin to support and help Viceroy Gunray in increasing his power in the Trade Federation.” I said

“Yes, Emperor.” said the 5 Neimoidians

“We will put you in an escape pod.” I said “Luku, once we are gone with the Lucrehulk and the 4 Superfreighters, I want to you to activate the escape pod’s distress signal, ok?”

“Yes, my Emperor. I understand” said Luku Dund with dead fish like eyes

“Good” I said

I then used the Force to open the Blast Doors of the Bridge. Stay at attention were the Mandalorians, waiting for their next command.

“Take these 5 to an escape pod and launch it into space.” I commanded

“Will do , sir.” said two Mandalorians who stepped forward for the job.

They then escorted the 5 Neimoidians away, while I stared out of the Bridge’s window with Pre Vizsla standing not far away from me.

After staring into space for a few seconds, I walked over and placed my hand on a nearby console, and activated [Mechu-deru]. I started the reactivation process of all of the B1s while at the same time reprogramming them to follow me.

After a whole minute, all B1s are reactivated.

‘I don’t have enough time to upgrade them so I will have to do that at a later time when i get back to Naboo.’ I thought

The Battle Droid, OOM-980 started walking over to me.

“Greetings, my Emperor. I am OOM-980.” said OOM-980 “What are your orders?”

“Once an escape pod has been launch from cargo bay, I want you to set a course for a location nearby the Concordia Moon.” I said “Make sure it’s far away enough so that the Mandalore Government can’t detect our ships.”

“Roger, roger.” said OOM-980

OOM-980 walks over to a communication station and opened a short-distance broadcast to the 4 Superfrieghters.

“Set a course for a location nearby Concordia that is out of radar range of Mandalore onc3e you detect a launched escape pod ” said OOM-980

“Roger, roger” said a B1 pilot droid and other droids through the communication station.

Soon, an escape pod was launched and all 5 captured Trade Federations started to fly away from that area.

-1 hour and 30 minutes later –

Soon arrive near Concordia

“My Holy Emperor, we have…” said OOM-980

But before OOM-980 could finish his sentence, he was pushed aside by B1-AC-130

“My Holy Emperor, we have arrive near Concordia, as you commanded.” said B1-AC-130 “We have also remained undetected from Mandalore.”

I decided to ignore B1-AC-130’s behavior and obsession with being the only B1 droid to talk to me since we more important matters at hand.

“Good, I want all of the 10 Forges aboard this ship to be transported to location that you previous transported supplies to.” I said

“Roger, roger” said B1-AC-130 “I will have it done, and I will supervise it personally to make sure none of the B1s mess up.”

“Sir, that battle droid is really a strange, I have seen many droids in my life with some strange behaviour but that droids behavior is the strangest I have ever seen.” said Pre Vizsla

“If you find that strange then you will be shocked when you meet HK-47.” I laughed

“HK-47? Isn’t that the ȧssassin droid you told me about which was the greatest ȧssassin droid ever created.” said Pre Vizsla

“I probably didn’t say it was the greatest ȧssassin droid but that probably isn’t so far from the truth.” I said “Anyway, once you meet HK-47, you will soon understand what strange behavior for a droid truly is.”

“YIf you say so but now you are making me really curious about this HK-47″” said Pre Vizsla “Hopefully one day I will get to see this strange droid.”

“You will definitely get the chance one day in the future.” I said “But first, you should head back to Concordia and try to increase numbers of our recruits. You need to make the Order of the Death Knights become stronger and more powerful, which shouldn’t be too hard with the 50,000,000 credits and the 10 Forges that are in our hands.”

“Yes, you are right about it being easy.” said Pre Vizsla “With our latest gained spoils and the latest mining equipment provided by you, I estimate that we can gain enough strength to conquer planets in 5 years time.”

“You should go now. I am looking forward to seeing the Death Knights become bigger and stronger, the next time I come and visit” I said while tossing the holopad with the transferred credits to Pre Vizsla.

Pre Vizsla caught the holopad.

“Yes, Mandalore.” said Pre Vizsla “Just you wait, I will make sure that the Death Knights become the strongest army under your command, and once again the people of the Galaxy will know that the greatness and strength of the Mandalorian people.”

“That’s good, dream big.” I said

Pre Vizsla then left the Bridge and headed to the Hangar Bay with the rest of the Mandalorians who were waiting in the Corrirdor. I sat down in the Command Chair and waited.

After waiting for an hour, B1-AC-130 came running back onto the Bridge.

“My Emperor, I have completed the task given to you but it took longer then expected.” said B1-AC-130 bowing on one knee “I am truly sorry for making you wait so long, please punish me for disappointing you and making you wait.”

“It’s ok, AC-130.” I said “Don’t worry about it.”

“Thank you, my Emperor, for your holy forgiveness and generosity.” said AC-130

‘Ok, AC-130 is really becoming like a religious fanatic now.’ I thought ‘What the hell went wrong with him when I upgraded him?’

“It’s fine” I said while my upper lip was twitching “I want you to take these 5 ships back to Naboo, and on the way back make sure that you erase all of the data and get rid of any evidence that proves that these ships and droids once belonged to the Trade Federation. If you can, try and upgrade the ships so they can become battleships.”

“Yes, my Emperor.” said B1-AC-130

“Let’s head back.” I said “Dia and Padme are probably missing me by now.”

Soon, I took control of the Defender.

The Defender lifts off the grounds and flies into the sky, and as the Defender was about to reach space, I activated [Force Travel] and I flew the Defender into the black portal, disappearing from Concorida Space.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: Hello everyone. I am happy to say that this chapter is released today because I almost didn’t finish this chapter today. The reason why I almost did publish the chapter today was because during the weekend, I was very busy with my Open Water Scuba Diving Course so I didn’t have alot of time to write my chapter but thankfully I work on in on Monday and today.

If you would like to see some of the things I did and saw during my Scuba Diving Course, check out the latest video on my Youtube Channel: Jerid in Taiwan
