章 184: Chapter One Hundred And Eighty-Four
Airport. Washington D.C.
While the jet that my wife, a few of my bodyguards and myself had boarded near the SGC had been private, and very well stocked, the airport we'd arrived at was far from secure. As such I now walked through the crowded airport with a slight scowl on my face. Yet I had no issue moving through the masses because the men in black suits had cleared a path for us I just
The crowd were giving us a lot of looks, or to be more precise they were giving Daenerys a lot of looks as she was an exotic beauty and I was glad the body guards that I'd brought with me had ways of hiding their appearances because they each had more than a passing resemblances to famous actresses of this time period. They were also very good at avoiding notice as any good bodyguard should be.
After the long trip, I was not looking forward to the upcoming meeting, not because I didn't still wish to meet the President, it was because I'd been given an itinerary, which wasn't just a time table of who I'd be meeting with and when (I had to meet with some leaders of senate committees, high ranking military officers and other officials) I'd also been given information on the subject of the meeting with the President of the United States.
The reason as to why something that seemed so helpful bothered me was because it clearly showed me that the Americans knew far more about the Imperium of Man than they should have given our limited interactions so far. They had a much better understanding of our technology than expected and they wished to discuss purchasing it from me.
I had to wonder where they'd gotten their information from. I wouldn't put it past the Eldar to have spilled beans as part of some plan to drive a wedge between us Imperials and the nations of Earth, but they wouldn't have gone into so much detail about our best tech, the space elves would have spent their efforts trying to make the Imperium look as bad as possible. Not that this would be hard work.
Another idea of mine was that the Games Workshop company existed here and so did the Warhammer 40k franchise in some form. A quick search on the Internet should confirm that and once we were somewhere relatively secure and my omni-tool would easily be able to find any such information as was publicly available.
If the leaders of this nation did believe that we came from the Warhammer 40k universe, or one close to how that universe was displayed in fiction, then it would make sense for the US of A to be so interested in our military technology as it was extremely advanced in some ways.
Plus it would explain why so many of the USA's leaders had become even more interested in not only acquiring my tech but also building stronger diplomatic ties without the expedition. They didn't want to risk angering me, yet at the same time they were trying to look as if they weren't scared of the Imperium by making me come to them.
Not that they really had to bother. I would never be insane enough to attack Earth directly, because aside from it being a version of Holy Terra, attacks on that never ended well for the invaders, and I didn't have the resources required to occupy the world even if I could have just bombard it into submission.
It might seem as if they were tipping their hand by making it clear that they knew so much about me, but they'd have no way of knowing that I'd know all about the Warhammer 40k science fiction franchise, or that I could access the Internet with my omni-tool.
"Mr and Mrs Thrax" an air force officer said as we headed out of the airport "I am Major Davis. I have a car standing by. If you'd please follow me".
I did not like being called Mr.
"You won't address me as a lord then at least use my military rank" I insisted.
My wife shot me a smile and I couldn't help admiring her yet again. For this trip she wore a rather elegant business suit with a skirt that showed off perhaps more of her legs than would be correct for such formal meetings. At least that would distract from her face, which was only partly hidden by a pair of sunglasses. It was a very good thing that Emilia Clarke wouldn't be well known as an actress until later in the decade.
Thinking of that made me wonder if it wouldn't be wise to smuggle Black Widow to Earth and have her take out George R.R. Martin before HBO made Game of Thrones. It would be a suitable punishment for him not having finished Winds of Winter during my first life.
"You'll meet with the POTUS first thing tomorrow morning" I was told as we got into the limo "And your first meeting is at a formal dinner tonight. Before then you'll have some time to rest after your long flight".
He was just repeating information which had been presented to me in document form to read over during the flight.
"Is our hotel room ready?" asked Dany
As planned my wife would distract people with small talk while I began the delicate work of messing with their minds. That would be taxing so it would be good to rest first.
"Yes ma'am. We're headed there now" Mayor Davis said with a nod.
