After about a year or two, Konrad Curze got a bit bored and decided to do something silly to make the war more interesting. He found Lion El'Jonson and immediately began to taunt him:
"Aha! Big Brother, you've been tricked! We lured you to the eastern The Galaxy / Milky Way, completely opposite to Terra! After the war, everyone will remember Lion ElJonson and his First Legion for having their crystals stolen while they were out farming!"
It is well known that "civilized man" Lion ElJonson has zero tolerance for insults. The Lion El'Jonson, after hearing this, merely walked nonchalantly in front of Konrad Curze, drew his sword, and struck. The two immediately engaged in battle.
Although Konrad Curze was severely wounded by his elder brother's "martial virtue swordplay" first strike, a series of batman combos still nearly strangled Lion ElJonson.
At the critical moment, the Lion El'Jonson's eldest son, Corswain, made a huge leap onto Konrad Curze's back, delivering a "backstab full of knightly honor and complete justice!" to the Eighth Uncle's spine.
The situation turned into one Primarch being paralyzed and the other unconscious from lack of oxygen. The combatants had no choice but to drag their respective fathers back to their ships, promising to fight another day.
The subsequent series of space battles completely shattered the Eighth Legion. Due to heavy casualties and lack of leadership, the Night Lords quickly fractured internally, unable to participate in the rebellion as a unified fighting force.
Konrad Curze was by then no longer involved in governance. "The true master of the Eighth Legion! Without you, there would be no Eighth Legion! Mr. Sevatar!" took over the Legion by killing disobedient Captains, and ordered the Legion to disband on the spot, break into smaller units, and operate autonomously to preserve the remaining strength of the Legion.
Vulkan became Konrad Curze's prisoner after the Battle of Istvaan V. Konrad Curze should have liked Vulkan, a moral paragon and a good-natured man. But for some strange reason, Vulkan's immortal trait greatly annoyed Konrad Curze.
He forced Vulkan to do all sorts of disgusting things, such as: killing Salamanders Legion warriors, only eating fried chicken and watermelon, and continuously picking cotton.
However, Vulkan always remained calm. After some time, Konrad Curze failed to break Vulkan or make him fall, and instead, he himself was in a constant state of impotent rage.
Finally, Konrad Curze chose to trap Vulkan in a labyrinth designed by Perturabo. At the end of the labyrinth lay Vulkan's Warhammer, "Dawnbringer," as a reward for completion.
Vulkan's thought on this was: "He doesn't know my hammer has a teleportation device! Watch me grab the hammer and flash out of here, stunning everyone!"
As it turned out, Black Uncle didn't realize he had no sense of direction and wandered aimlessly in the labyrinth for several days. Finally, Konrad Curze got tired of waiting and simply opened the labyrinth, telling Vulkan to hurry to the center, get his hammer, and have a good fight with him.
Finally, Black Uncle Vulkan got his hammer. Konrad Curze appeared behind him, saying with a mocking tone:
"Hahaha! Did you think I didn't know your hammer has a teleportation function? This room has been isolated from teleportation! You can't escape! Hehehehehe!"
At this moment, Black Uncle held the huge Warhammer in his hand, looking at Konrad Curze in front of him... "You're right, 'Dawnbringer' is a two-handed Warhammer crafted by myself, Vulkan, and it possesses a function called 'teleportation'... But you forgot one thing... my dear brother..."
Konrad Curze was now grinning, no longer resembling batman at all, but a complete and utter Joker:
"What did I forget, my dear brother?"
Vulkan raised his Warhammer and aimed it at Konrad Curze... "But first... it's a hammer..."
And so, the tallest and strongest Primarch, Black Uncle, directly swung his hammer and knocked Konrad Curze over. After beating Konrad Curze, Vulkan threw down a remark, "My teleporter works just fine here," and then ran off, leaving Konrad Curze more gloomy, frustrated, and angry than ever before.
Before the final space battle against the Dark Angels Legion, Konrad Curze recovered in time and, with a group of bat-spawn, boarded the Lion El'Jonson's "indomitable truth." Upon boarding, he was immediately overwhelmed by countless hooded figures. Konrad Curze had no choice but to flee deep into the massive glorious queen class battleship.
For the next few weeks, the Dark Angels were embroiled in a nightmarish game of hide-and-seek. Even Lion ElJonson himself couldn't catch Konrad Curze before reaching Macragge.
Upon arriving at Guilliman's homeworld, Macragge, Lion ElJonson decided to have an "open and honest" conversation with his Thirteenth Brother to discuss what to do next. During this "open and honest" conversation, the Lion El'Jonson completely failed to mention that the craziest "Laughing Bat" in the entire The Galaxy / Milky Way was hiding on his ship, unsupervised.
Being ignored by his elder brother greatly displeased Konrad Curze, so he immediately played a big prank on the green and blue brothers, launching all the battleship's drop pods at Macragge.
