3. Marquis Lohengramm, I will avenge my lord!

4. What're you doing?

5. You bastard!

6. Kircheis...!

7. Admiral, here...

8. Get them apart!

9. Admiral Kircheis...

10. Hang on!

11. Admiral...

12. A doctor... Call a doctor!

13. Too... late...

14. Prince Braunschweig, forgive me.

15. I, Ansbach, failed to fulfill my pledge.

16. How many years must you wait for the blonde brat to fall into Hell?

17. What are you saying?

18. You bastard!

19. I am. But as a final gift, I have stolen the brat's other half.

20. Wait for me in Valhalla!

21. Stop!

22. Poison?

23. Don't let him swallow it!

24. Worthless mockery...

25. There may be another device!

26. Get rid of the coffin!

27. Lend a hand!

28. We'll remove Ansbach, too!

29. Sir!

30. Kircheis...

31. Lord Reinhard...

32. are you... all right?

33. Kircheis...

34. Thanks to you.

35. Can't you see?

36. I won't... be able to serve you anymore, Lord Reinhard.

37. Forgive me.

38. Fool. What're you talking about?

39. The doctor will be here soon.

40. This wound will heal quickly.

41. When you're well, we'll visit my sister and tell her of the victory.

42. Won't we?

43. Lord Reinhard...

44. Don't talk until the doctor comes.

45. Please... win the universe...

46. Yes, of course.

47. With you.

48. Please tell Lady Annerose...

49. that Sieg kept his promise of long ago.

50. No!

51. I won't tell her that!

52. You'll tell her yourself!

53. In person!

54. I don't want to tell her. Understand?

55. We'll go visit her together, Kircheis!

56. Kircheis! Answer me!

57. Kircheis! Say something! Kircheis!

58. It's no use. He's dead.

59. He'll rest in peace now.

60. Don't lie, Mittermeyer.

61. You're lying.

62. Kircheis wouldn't die before me!

63. Now, open your eyes, Kircheis.

64. Kircheis...

65. Kircheis!

66. Kircheis!

67. How is Marquis Lohengramm doing?

68. Like before, sitting quietly.

69. But I didn't think Marquis Lohengramm was that fragile.

70. You're mistaken, Mueller.

71. If you or I died, there wouldn't be so much mourning.

72. Siegfried Kircheis is special...

73. was special.

74. It's as if Marquis Lohengramm has lost half his own self.

75. And by his own mistake.

76. Well, there's nothing that can be done about it now. The problem is what to do now.

77. We must make Marquis Lohengramm recover.

78. We must snap him out of it.

79. If not, we will fall into the abyss of the Galaxy, and be lamented in songs of destruction.

80. But how will we do that?

81. How can we make him recover?

82. Won't that man figure something out?

83. That man?

84. You know...

85. The man who isn't here.

86. Oberstein, huh?

87. But the cause of all this is his uncalled for advice!

88. Should we ask his advice?

89. Under the circumstances, we have no choice.

90. Given his position, what will we do if he tries to assert his authority?

91. He wouldn't have any place to go if it wasn't for Marquis Lohengramm.

92. Besides...

93. if he tries to take advantage of the situation for himself...

94. we'll just have to take suitable measures against him.

95. That's true, too.

96. We're the ones who control the real battle forces.

97. Excuse me...

98. His Excellency the Chief of Staff would like to see you.

99. He has good timing, doesn't he?

100. You've had quite a lengthy discussion.

101. But you don't seem to have decided anything.

102. Well, since there is no longer a Number 1 or Number 2...

103. we lack a mediator, don't we?

104. Well then, Chief of Staff, do you have any good ideas?

105. A few.

106. Oh?

107. I would ask a favor of Marquis Lohengramm's older sister.

108. Countess Grunewald?

109. We considered that, too, but...

110. It appears no one took the responsibility of informing her.

111. I will accept that responsibility. But there's something else I want you to do.

112. We must catch the criminal who killed Admiral Kircheis.

113. Strange...

114. Isn't Ansbach the criminal?

115. No, he's no more than the executioner. The real criminal is someone else.

116. An important figure.

117. That's true.

118. But Prince Braunschweig is already dead.

119. It's not Prince Braunschweig.

120. What do you mean?

121. Who do you claim is the criminal?

122. The Imperial Prime Minister, Prince Lichtenlade.

123. You mean he's taking advantage of the situation to eliminate potential rivals?

124. Exactly.

125. I don't want to fight on the opposite side against you.

126. There's no way I can fight on equal terms.

127. Sooner or later, Lichtenlade must eliminate any rival.

128. The same is true on how Lichtenlade's side sees us.

129. Already, it is clear that he's devising a plot to eliminate Marquis Lohengramm.

130. Couldn't this be a false accusation?

131. We should return to Odin as quickly as possible.

132. By arresting Prince Lichtenlade, we will take the State Seal from him.

133. With that, we can establish Marquis Lohengramm's right to rule.

134. Once we have that authority, whatever means we use can be justified later.

135. In this situation, plots and deceptions are inevitable.

136. We can take this opportunity to sweep away Marquis Lohengramm's enemies.

137. And so, we'll seize unquestioned authority.

138. We should adopt Oberstein's plan.

139. That's right.

140. If we don't act directly, we'll just be forestalled by the enemy.

141. Any objections...?

142. No!

143. Then select the fastest ships from each fleet. Let's dispatch them immediately to Odin.

144. Reuental and I will take command.

145. As the highest ranking Admirals, that is your prerogative.

146. Very well then. Mecklinger, Lutz...

147. take charge of the remaining forces.

148. Protect Geiersburg Fortress.

149. Yes, sir.

150. Understood.

151. And remember, don't let the matter of Admiral Kircheis leak.

152. Very well, carry on.

153. There's not a moment to lose!

154. Yes, sir!

155. It's a 20 day journey to Odin.

156. But we'll reduce this as much as we can.

157. Full speed ahead!

158. Show them the speed of the Black Lancers!

159. This is a chance to restore our honor.

160. Don't let the other fleets beat us.

161. Forward, leave any laggards behind.

162. Anyone left behind can catch up at Odin.

163. Mueller, deploy your ships outside satellite orbit.

164. You will secure our control of space.

165. Roger.

166. Remaining fleets... take control of the Imperial City.

167. Disregard any orders from the ground. Force a landing.

168. Forward!

169. Open the hatches... or we will open fire.

170. Don't worry if it's the lake or suburbs. Just land anywhere you can.

171. What's going on?

172. Flying above the Imperial City is scandalous.

173. What's the meaning of this outrage?

174. Imperial Prime Minister Lichtenlade, you're under arrest.

175. What's the charge?

176. Instigating an assassination attempt on His Excellency Marquis Lohengramm.

177. That's absurd. What proof is there?

178. In the Empire, when one is accused of a crime, proof is not always necessary, is it?

179. What?

180. You have probably always wanted to be at the mercy of the government you headed.

181. Lock him up.

182. Please stop.

183. Do you have the Kaiser's authority to be here?

184. Authority is for those who wield true power.

185. Your Excellency, we found it!

186. This is it.

187. It's the Imperial Seal.

188. Miss Hilda, it's dangerous.

189. It's safe.

190. Where do you think those troops came from, Miss...?

191. Troops just don't pop out of nowhere.

192. There's no fleet this large, except Marquis Lohengramm's.

193. A livelier age is coming, I think.

194. Although it's a little hectic, it's clearly preferable to stagnation.

195. Your Excellency...

196. there's a message for you from the capital city, Odin.

197. It's Countess Grunewald.

198. You told her, didn't you!

199. You told my sister about Kircheis, didn't you!

200. I told her.

201. How dare you!

202. I'm afraid it's beyond even your power to conceal it forever.

203. Shut up!

204. Are you afraid to face your sister?

205. What?

206. If not, please speak to her.

207. Your Excellency, I am not forsaking you.

208. You mustn't torture yourself like this. Nor leave your responsibilities to me.

209. More importantly, rather than dwelling on the past, you must confront the future.

210. Otherwise, this is as far as you can get.

211. If the universe falls into the hands of someone else...

212. Admiral Kircheis will look down in shame from Valhalla.

213. Shadows must accompany their light.

214. But if the light dims...

215. Don't the shadows, too?

216. Sister...

217. Poor Reinhard...

218. Now you have nothing left to lose, do you?

219. No.

220. No.

221. I still have you, Sister.

222. Don't I, Sister? Don't I?

223. Yes.

224. We have nothing left but each other.

225. Reinhard, I'm going to move out of your mansion.

226. I can probably find a small house somewhere.

227. Sister...?

228. I think we shouldn't see each other for a while.

229. Sister...?

230. I shouldn't be near you.

231. Our ways of life are too different.

232. For me, there is only the past.

233. But for you, there is a future.

234. Reinhard, when you are weary, please come to see me.

235. But you must not be weary yet.

236. I understand.

237. If that's what you want, Sister, I shall do as you ask.

238. After I keep my pledge to Kircheis...

239. after I win the universe, then I will come to visit you.

240. But before we say goodbye, please tell me one thing...

241. Were you in love with Kircheis?

242. Yes...

243. I will take the universe.

244. When I think of the enormity of what I have lost...

245. if I can't achieve at least that...

246. what will I do?

247. Oberstein has informed me of the situation.

248. Yes, sir.

249. You'll be rewarded for your distinguished service.

250. I'll return to Odin from here.

251. Can you arrange an escort to meet me en route?

252. Yes. Mittermeyer, perhaps?

253. By the way, all of Lichtenlade's family have been apprehended.

254. What should we do with them?

255. I'm afraid we can't sentence the Imperial Prime Minister to death, can we?

256. Offer him suicide.

257. As you wish.

258. And his family...?

259. Banish the women and children to the frontier.

260. All males over the age of 10 should be put to death.

261. As you wish.

262. The boys under 10 are to live?

263. I was 10 when I entered the academy.

264. Until that age, one can't be considered responsible.

265. So I won't take their lives.

266. If, when they've grown, they attack me, that's fine.

267. It's to be expected that incompetent rulers are overthrown, you see.

268. The same goes for all of you.

269. When you're prepared to overthrow me yourselves...

270. come challenge me, I don't care.

271. You jest.

272. Your Excellency, we'll leave port in a moment.

273. Concerning the Lichtenlade family... Is that wise?

274. I've shed plenty of blood before now.

275. I'll probably shed a lot more in the future.

276. The blood of the Lichtenlade family is only a few drops.

277. Added to what's been shed already, how much is it?

278. If you think so, fine.

279. Scram!

280. Don't be so hard on the dog.

281. I hate dogs!

282. But I'm supposed to become a dog for the government.

283. A dog?

284. They want me to spy on the Alliance.

285. They want to make use of the fact that I knew Yang when I was a kid.

286. But you didn't refuse, did you?

287. That's why I'm disgusted with myself.

288. In the Alliance, we should be able to get close to Yang Wenli soon.

289. The problem is the Empire.

290. Politically, that brat is not easy to get close to.

291. Yes, sir.

292. So, Boltik...

293. leave for your new post as High Commissioner on Odin...

294. and get close to the blonde brat.

295. Yes, sir. But my replacement...

296. Don't worry. I've chosen your successor.

297. I'll introduce you and you can finish the transfer.

298. This is Rupert Kessellink.

299. If you're surprised by his youth...

300. you won't be able to deal with Marquis Lohengramm.

301. Y... yes, sir.

302. That time was dangerous.

303. When I shook hands with Truniht.

304. Once again, the man wasn't hurt.

305. It was the same during Amlitzer.

306. By causing a big storm, and hiding during the storm, he's never been damaged himself.

307. Before you know it, he'll be exercising even more authority.

308. The thought leaves me panic stricken.

309. And then, I had a nasty thought.

310. What good is democracy if it gives power to a man like that?

311. It kept coming back to me.

312. Rudolf, who founded the Galactic Empire...

313. and that bunch in the National Salvation Military Council...

314. were both convinced that only they could save the day. And they continued to think so.

315. It's strangely paradoxical...

316. But what made Rudolf create an atrocious, despotic government...

317. was his sense of duty to the whole human race.

318. Do you think Marquis Lohengramm is like that, too?

319. Your tea's getting cold.

320. I suppose you think I'm happy as long as I can drink tea.

321. However, the civil war in the Empire is probably over by now.

322. I'd better drink this tea while I can.

323. Well then, how will you come at us this time, Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm?

324. At that time, Marquis Lohengramm, returned to the capital planet, Odin...

325. as Supreme Commander of the Imperial Forces.

326. He was given the concurrent position of Imperial Prime Minister...

327. and established absolute authority over the Empire.

328. At the same time, Siegfried Kircheis was promoted to Imperial Admiral...

329. and posthumously awarded a position in the Triumvirate of the Imperial Forces.

330. Kircheis...

331. did my sister visit you?

332. But only the two words, "My Friend," were chiseled on his tombstone.

333. Already, I have nothing to lose.

334. But even so, I will fight.

335. To keep my promise to you.

336. And...

337. To gain something to quench the thirst in my heart.

338. Is that a good friend... Or a strong enemy?

339. Yang Wenli...

340. will you fill that role?

341. Space Era 797; Imperial Year 488.

342. Without regard to human ambition, the galaxy ticks away eternal time.
