There are some core elements of this chapter that I need to explain. Although I know that some readers don't care much about such details, I still want to explain it to the audience who haven't paid attention. After all, I don't intend to treat everyone as children.

Azrael gave Ryan the helmet before, and his title when he put it on was Chapter Master of the Dark Angels War. This was the only title he had. According to the appointment of the Chapter Master of the Templar Chapter of the "Astartes", he could be appointed by the Chapter.

It was decided internally, so Azriel could give Ryan the helmet, but at that time he only had this title and the same power.

Ryan's real power is to be crowned by the protagonist in this chapter. According to the laws of the empire, the highest appointment at the level of the legion must and can only be performed by the emperor, or someone appointed by the emperor with relevant rights.

The title of Supreme Marshal of the protagonist happens to be the only one in the entire empire who has this power. Yes, Guilliman does not have it, because the regent is the head of the administrative department, not the head of the army. The protagonist is.

Moreover, the First Legion was disbanded. According to the requirements of "Temple", it is now equivalent to reconstruction, so the protagonist still needs to approve it. Only in this way is it legal. The Dark Angel can legitimately take the name of the First Legion and go to it in the future.

The Adeptus Mechanicus needs supplies or expands recruiting planets.

And this requires another title of the protagonist, Imperial Guardian, which is an administrative authority and an imperial government title second only to Guilliman. Therefore, the protagonist can and needs him to announce the reconstruction of the First Legion and give it legitimacy.

Otherwise, if you are like Huron, who illegally builds an army, you will be regarded as a traitor and be punished immediately.

Finally, there is the third purpose, religious posthumous recognition. After all, the Empire is a kingdom of God. Although Ryan is a descendant of the Empire, who knows if you are fake? It’s not like Chaos has never deceived the Empire like this.

Therefore, we need the third title of the protagonist, Sword Bearer of the Empire. This has a layer of religion and is recorded in the state religion. Therefore, the protagonist can represent the emperor and canonize Ryan as the son of the empire and solve this problem on a religious level.

In the post-imperial era, issues arise after the rise of state religion.
