Copy !req
2. LEGEND
Copy !req
3. OF THE
Copy !req
4. GALACTIC HEROES
Copy !req
5. In every age,
Copy !req
6. in every place,
Copy !req
7. the deeds of men
Copy !req
8. remain the same.
Copy !req
9. The operation to move
Geiersburg Fortress is underway.
Copy !req
10. Meanwhile, one of
Reinhard's subordinates...
Copy !req
11. Admiral Ernest Mecklinger,
known as the Artistic Admiral...
Copy !req
12. Admiral Ernest Mecklinger
Copy !req
13. is visiting the mansion of
Baron Heinrich von Kunmel.
Copy !req
14. Kunmel Mansion
Copy !req
15. He was invited by Hilda,
who is the Baron's first cousin.
Copy !req
16. So Baron Kunmel is more like a little
brother than a cousin to you, Fraulein?
Copy !req
17. Yes. Both my uncle
and aunt died young...
Copy !req
18. and since they knew Heinrich
has always had a weak constitution...
Copy !req
19. they appointed my
father as his guardian.
Copy !req
20. Besides, I don't
have any siblings.
Copy !req
21. Asking you for a favor like this is, I suppose,
mixing up public and private affairs.
Copy !req
22. No, please don't worry.
Copy !req
23. But is it really alright
for me to intrude?
Copy !req
24. He's very excited about it!
Copy !req
25. Heinrich admires you, Admiral.
Copy !req
26. Since I've been working as
Prince Lohengramm's private secretary...
Copy !req
27. I haven't been able to
visit as much as I used to.
Copy !req
28. I said I'd make it up to him, and he said
he'd like me to introduce you to him.
Copy !req
29. Come in.
Copy !req
30. Baron Heinrich von Kunmel
Copy !req
31. Heinrich.
Copy !req
32. As promised, I brought
Admiral Mecklinger.
Copy !req
33. Pleased to meet you,
Baron Kunmel.
Copy !req
34. Wow, you're really here!
Copy !req
35. Oh, please...
Please, sit down.
Copy !req
36. I'm so happy
that you came.
Copy !req
37. I don't know if you'll like it or not,
Baron, but it's something I painted...
Copy !req
38. For me...?
Copy !req
39. Amazing!
It's amazing, Hilda!
Copy !req
40. That's so nice, isn't it?
Thank the Admiral.
Copy !req
41. Yes... yes!
Copy !req
42. Admiral, thank you.
Copy !req
43. On top of your being here,
to get this great painting!
Copy !req
44. It's truly perfect!
Copy !req
45. On the contrary, I'm gratified
that you're so happy.
Copy !req
46. Heinrich idolizes people
like you, Admiral.
Copy !req
47. That's right.
Copy !req
48. With this body, even if I spent my
whole life trying, I couldn't do anything.
Copy !req
49. Therefore, I admire those who've left behind
various achievements within one lifetime.
Copy !req
50. For example,
Leonardo da Vinci...
Copy !req
51. Tsao Tsao, who was a political
reformer, soldier and poet...
Copy !req
52. Lazar Carnot
and Togril Beck!
Copy !req
53. Is it fair for me to be
compared to such great people...?
Copy !req
54. Of course! In modern times,
Admiral Mecklinger, it's you!
Copy !req
55. Even if you excluded your
renown as a soldier...
Copy !req
56. on top of that, you've won
prizes as an artist, right?
Copy !req
57. Before that, even as a poet,
you were well regarded.
Copy !req
58. Was it the year before last that you won
second place at the Piano Competition?
Copy !req
59. Oh, dear, I'm astonished.
You know a lot.
Copy !req
60. It's embarrassing.
Copy !req
61. What are you saying?
Copy !req
62. Even in the Fleet...
Copy !req
63. you're good at leading fleets at the front
lines, and organizing troops at the rear.
Copy !req
64. And I've heard that you're
especially first rate as a staff officer.
Copy !req
65. Well, as for that, I really was
reluctant to become a soldier.
Copy !req
66. Because I'm common-born, I couldn't
make a living by the arts I love.
Copy !req
67. So, if you could render successes as
an artist, would you quit the fleet?
Copy !req
68. Heinrich, that's rude.
Copy !req
69. No, I don't mind.
Copy !req
70. But I won't quit for a while.
Copy !req
71. Because, while I've been in the Fleet,
I've encountered art that I can appreciate.
Copy !req
72. Is there such a thing?
Copy !req
73. Yes. The living art called
Prince Reinhard von Lohengramm.
Copy !req
74. Oh, uh, that was
rude of me.
Copy !req
75. No, it's very true.
Copy !req
76. Maybe everything about
his existence is artistic.
Copy !req
77. If only this body
of mine were free.
Copy !req
78. Really, thank you
very much for today.
Copy !req
79. No problem.
Copy !req
80. But will he be okay after getting
over excited and getting a fever?
Copy !req
81. Yes. If he's quiet
for a little while.
Copy !req
82. You should be satisfied
to have made him so happy.
Copy !req
83. I'm happy
I was of use.
Copy !req
84. By the way, Admiral...
Can I ask you one thing?
Copy !req
85. What?
Copy !req
86. When you went in the room, somehow,
you made an unexpected face...
Copy !req
87. Oh, it appeared
on my face...?
Copy !req
88. Indeed, you are keen.
Copy !req
89. Well, I've known a few sick
people like him, but in most cases...
Copy !req
90. they've always had a healthy
pet nearby as a companion.
Copy !req
91. So when I didn't
see that...
Copy !req
92. That was all it was.
Copy !req
93. Is that so...
Copy !req
94. He seems to have
no such interest.
Copy !req
95. He seems to be fond
of reading books, but...
Copy !req
96. I see.
Copy !req
97. At that time, the two of
them felt a vague uneasiness.
Copy !req
98. But it would be a considerable time afterward
before that took form and appeared.
Copy !req
99. Geiersburg Fortress
Copy !req
100. Normal engines' navigation
test, in 25 seconds.
Copy !req
101. Move the engineering vessels away
from the Fortress's course quickly.
Copy !req
102. T minus 20 seconds...
Copy !req
103. Course is clear.
Copy !req
104. T minus 15 seconds...
Copy !req
105. Final confirmation...
Copy !req
106. 10 seconds until ignition...
Copy !req
107. As soon as the navigation test is
completed for the normal engines...
Copy !req
108. 9...
Copy !req
109. 8...
Copy !req
110. we'll immediately begin
preparations for the warp experiment.
Copy !req
111. 7...
Copy !req
112. 6...
Copy !req
113. I've already dispatched the research
ship to the warp experiment space zone.
Copy !req
114. 5...
Copy !req
115. 4...
Copy !req
116. 3...
Copy !req
117. 2...
Copy !req
118. 1...
Copy !req
119. Ignition!
Copy !req
120. It moved!
Copy !req
121. Velocity 2000
kilometers per hour.
Copy !req
122. 5000 kilometers.
Copy !req
123. 8000 kilometers.
Copy !req
124. Acceleration vector, nominal. The error of the
specific output curve is plus or minus 0.03%
Copy !req
125. The synchronization accuracy
is within 0.1 micro-seconds.
Copy !req
126. It's perfect!
Copy !req
127. The Vulture has
spread its wings!
Copy !req
128. I received a report from
Kempf at Geiersberg.
Copy !req
129. The normal engines test
seems to have succeeded.
Copy !req
130. But without seeing the results
of the warp experiment...
Copy !req
131. we can't say yet whether
we can actually use it.
Copy !req
132. If that succeeds,
it'll be soon, won't it?
Copy !req
133. Fraulein, you're still opposed
to this dispatch, aren't you?
Copy !req
134. I haven't said anything.
Copy !req
135. You're scaring me,
looking at me like that.
Copy !req
136. I didn't think you would
be afraid of someone like me.
Copy !req
137. Your Excellency, whether
it's nations or organizations...
Copy !req
138. in order for groups of people to form,
there is one thing that is absolutely necessary.
Copy !req
139. And that is?
Copy !req
140. An enemy.
Copy !req
141. That's the truth.
Copy !req
142. Therefore, I'm continuing to
fight with the Free Planets Alliance.
Copy !req
143. But do you still
oppose my plan?
Copy !req
144. Your Excellency understands...
Copy !req
145. that the enemy that is
necessary for Your Excellency...
Copy !req
146. and the people who support Your
Excellency isn't the Free Planets Alliance...
Copy !req
147. it's the Goldenbaum Dynasty.
Copy !req
148. The Kaiser is
only seven years old.
Copy !req
149. He has no real power.
Copy !req
150. His age and abilities aren't
irrelevant at the moment.
Copy !req
151. Erwin Josef II is the successor
to the Goldenbaum Dynasty...
Copy !req
152. and could become a symbol
to rally the former powers.
Copy !req
153. Even if the former powers combined,
they are already no match for us.
Copy !req
154. Besides, I don't want to be known to
future generations as a child murderer.
Copy !req
155. I won't kill the Kaiser.
Copy !req
156. That's splendid!
Copy !req
157. But, as you say,
I need an enemy.
Copy !req
158. There is only one
road I can take.
Copy !req
159. Iserlohn Fortress
Copy !req
160. I've received a summons
to "appear on Heinessen."
Copy !req
161. What could it be?
Copy !req
162. It says they're
holding an inquiry.
Copy !req
163. I don't remember very well, but do you
know what kind of thing this is, Lieutenant?
Copy !req
164. Aside from a court-martial, such a thing as an
inquiry is neither in the Alliance constitution...
Copy !req
165. nor has any precedent
in Alliance military law.
Copy !req
166. It exists supra-legally?
Copy !req
167. After all, because it's arbitrary,
it's a matter that has no legal precedent.
Copy !req
168. It has to be legal since the Secretary
of Defense himself issued the order.
Copy !req
169. I can't avoid going to Heinessen,
the city of vanity and corruption.
Copy !req
170. The Alliance government has temporarily
recalled Admiral Yang to Heinessen...
Copy !req
171. to hold an
official inquiry.
Copy !req
172. Inquiry? Not a
military court-martial?
Copy !req
173. If it were a court-martial,
he has to be officially accused.
Copy !req
174. The defendant would also
have to have a lawyer.
Copy !req
175. Holding a psychological lynching
based on suspicions and conjecture...
Copy !req
176. is clearly a more effective
measure than a public court-martial.
Copy !req
177. It's a way of doing things that suits those
presently in power in the Alliance, isn't it?
Copy !req
178. While they extol democracy...
Copy !req
179. in reality, by ignoring laws and rules,
they reduce it to a mere formality.
Copy !req
180. It's a cunning but risky
way of doing things.
Copy !req
181. Because if the people in power
don't respect their own laws...
Copy !req
182. the standards of
society itself slacken.
Copy !req
183. That is a problem
that they must solve.
Copy !req
184. There's no need
for us to worry.
Copy !req
185. Those who received an inheritance without
exertion will receive a suitable trial.
Copy !req
186. Those who can't withstand it,
and are destroyed...
Copy !req
187. are not limited to
the Goldenbaum Dynasty.
Copy !req
188. Advisor, there are many things we have
to do other than discuss philosophy.
Copy !req
189. First, it's good that we've managed
to involve Count Remscheid in our plan...
Copy !req
190. But who should be the one to carry it out?
That's what we should decide first.
Copy !req
191. Forgive me.
Copy !req
192. I'm working on choosing
the suitable person.
Copy !req
193. I'll be able to report
to you within a few days.
Copy !req
194. At last, my worries
have become real?
Copy !req
195. I can't tell you not to go,
but please do everything carefully.
Copy !req
196. At any rate, don't
give them any excuses.
Copy !req
197. Yes, I know.
Copy !req
198. Again, please take
care of the watch.
Copy !req
199. Will you take a
security unit with you?
Copy !req
200. I'll take command...
Copy !req
201. There's no need
to overreact.
Copy !req
202. I'm not riding into
enemy territory.
Copy !req
203. Just nominate one person
whom I can rely on.
Copy !req
204. How about me, with
both wisdom and valor?
Copy !req
205. If we separate the Defense Commander
from the front lines, it'll be a problem later.
Copy !req
206. Please advise Rear Admiral Cazellnu.
Copy !req
207. I can't take Julian with
me this time, either.
Copy !req
208. I'll go with a minimum
number of people...
Copy !req
209. and instead of the
Hyperion, I'll use a cruiser.
Copy !req
210. Well?
Copy !req
211. You're being pretty
cautious, aren't you?
Copy !req
212. You think?
Copy !req
213. But why not take
Julian with you?
Copy !req
214. Because, since coming here, Julian hasn't
had a chance to make friends his own age.
Copy !req
215. I think I should free him from
the housework once in a while.
Copy !req
216. He's a good one...!
Copy !req
217. I'll nominate one
well-qualified man.
Copy !req
218. Master Sergeant Louis Mashengo.
Copy !req
219. He's usually an obedient guy,
but when he gets mad...
Copy !req
220. he can probably dispose of
a whole platoon with one hand.
Copy !req
221. Stronger than you?
Copy !req
222. If it were me,
it would be a whole company.
Copy !req
223. Yeah, right.
Copy !req
224. By the way, is Lt Greenhill
going with you?
Copy !req
225. What would I do if
I didn't take my adjutant?
Copy !req
226. It's reasonable, but if you take the
Lieutenant along and leave Julian behind...
Copy !req
227. the boy's probably going
to burn up with jealousy.
Copy !req
228. I know that Lt Greenhill is
interested in Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
229. But what about
the Admiral?
Copy !req
230. I don't know...
Copy !req
231. He's a person who hates to let
other people know his mind.
Copy !req
232. He's a person who's
comparatively transparent.
Copy !req
233. He's got a good head, but
his character is simple, right?
Copy !req
234. Because, on an individual level,
he's somewhat naive.
Copy !req
235. I guess people tend to know more
about others than themselves.
Copy !req
236. Hey, what do you mean?
Copy !req
237. I have to make dinner,
so please excuse me.
Copy !req
238. If I don't make the
Admiral's favorite Irish Stew...
Copy !req
239. It's good to be hard working, but don't grind
down your hard won genius making stew!
Copy !req
240. Geiersberg Fortress,
under Muller's command...
Copy !req
241. is moving towards the
scheduled warp experiment.
Copy !req
242. Will it work?
Copy !req
243. I'll make it succeed.
Copy !req
244. You've just returned
from a mission.
Copy !req
245. You should spend
tonight with your family.
Copy !req
246. Yes, sir! I'm grateful
for the indulgence.
Copy !req
247. Your father is going to a faraway
point in space to subdue the bad guys.
Copy !req
248. You two are boys.
Copy !req
249. So protect your mother,
and be good.
Copy !req
250. Hey, won't you wish
your father good luck?
Copy !req
251. Father, good luck, and
come back soon, okay?
Copy !req
252. Father, good luck.
Copy !req
253. Bring me a souvenir, OK?
Copy !req
254. Silly, Father's going to work!
Copy !req
255. He doesn't have time
to buy you a present!
Copy !req
256. But...
Copy !req
257. The souvenir will have to
wait until another time.
Copy !req
258. That's right, when I come back, shall we
go to see Grandma after such a long time?
Copy !req
259. Really?
Copy !req
260. Dear, is it all right,
making that kind of promise?
Copy !req
261. If you break it,
you'll be persecuted.
Copy !req
262. Oh, it's okay.
Copy !req
263. When the operation succeeds, and I come
home, I can probably take a small vacation.
Copy !req
264. And probably a promotion.
Copy !req
265. If so, we can probably increase the amount
of money we send to support your family.
Copy !req
266. Instead of that
kind of thing...
Copy !req
267. please come
back unhurt.
Copy !req
268. Because that's all I want.
Copy !req
269. Of course
I'll come back.
Copy !req
270. Have I ever gone to the
battlefield and not come back?
Copy !req
271. Planet Phezzan
Copy !req
272. Baron Flegel had been the strongest
leader in the Lippstadt Alliance.
Copy !req
273. Leopold Schuhmacher, who had
been employed as his staff officer...
Copy !req
274. fled with his subordinates
to Phezzan after Flegel's death.
Copy !req
275. Starting a new life in
the Assiniboiyer ravine...
Copy !req
276. he was going to spend the
rest of his life as a pioneer.
Copy !req
277. Leopold Schuhmacher, Former Captain
Copy !req
278. Mr. Leopold Schuhmacher, former
Imperial Fleet Captain, isn't it?
Copy !req
279. I'm the Landesherr's advisor,
Rupert Kessellink.
Copy !req
280. I have something important to
say about your homeland, Captain.
Copy !req
281. Won't you let me
not care any more?
Copy !req
282. I'm not a captain or
anything anymore.
Copy !req
283. What becomes of the Galactic Empire
has nothing to do with me.
Copy !req
284. As my hands are full, planning
a new life for me and my friends...
Copy !req
285. I don't have time to think about
the past which I've thrown away.
Copy !req
286. It's all right to
throw away the past.
Copy !req
287. But don't do the
same with the future.
Copy !req
288. Captain Schuhmacher, you aren't a person
to end his life covered with dirt and fertilizer.
Copy !req
289. Won't you think about
trying to change history?
Copy !req
290. Please go away.
Copy !req
291. Well, won't you calm
down and hear me out?
Copy !req
292. You can probably grow
crops on your farm.
Copy !req
293. But, alas, crops have no meaning
if they can't be sold in the city.
Copy !req
294. You're intelligent, Captain.
You must understand me.
Copy !req
295. Is that the Phezzanni
way of doing things?
Copy !req
296. Yes. This is the Phezzanni
way of doing things.
Copy !req
297. If necessary, I'm prepared
to force you using my authority.
Copy !req
298. It's fine if
you're contemptuous.
Copy !req
299. However, I think there's nothing in the world
as futile as the loser's contempt for the victor.
Copy !req
300. You probably think so,
while you're winning.
Copy !req
301. Well, what are you
telling me to do?
Copy !req
302. Assassinate Prince Lohengramm?
Copy !req
303. Phezzan doesn't
like bloodshed.
Copy !req
304. Because peace is the only
way to prosperity, isn't it?
Copy !req
305. Count Alfred von Lansburg
Copy !req
306. You damned vulgar Phezzanni!
Copy !req
307. How could you understand
my lofty literature?
Copy !req
308. Count Lansberg...?
Copy !req
309. Who are you?
Copy !req
310. If you don't feel like wasting your loyalty
and labor for the Goldenbaum Dynasty...
Copy !req
311. then please take part in a
plan headed by Count Remscheid.
Copy !req
312. I see?
Copy !req
313. So you were a member of
the Lippstadt Alliance, too?
Copy !req
314. So we're battle comrades.
Copy !req
315. From here on, I'm pleased
to be of service.
Copy !req
316. Will this plan
ever succeed?
Copy !req
317. Even if it does succeed, what
kind of meaning is there in that?
Copy !req
318. Making the flames
of war spread...
Copy !req
319. doesn't it just raise obstructions
on the road to peace and progress?
Copy !req
320. There's no novelty
whatsoever in Schaft's plan.
Copy !req
321. Isn't it just the old
"big ships-big guns" doctrine?
Copy !req
322. But it might be
effective against Iserlohn.
Copy !req
323. Besides, I know it's an order,
but Kempf is a really hard working guy.
Copy !req
324. At any rate, I don't care
about Schaft or Kempf.
Copy !req
325. As for me, I'm concerned
about Prince Lohengramm.
Copy !req
326. Since Kircheis' death, I've
noticed he's changed a lot.
Copy !req
327. Although I can't
say how or where...
Copy !req
328. People have to change,
having lost what should not be lost?
Copy !req
329. Do you remember?
Copy !req
330. It was right here...
Copy !req
331. when we first saw Kircheis and Prince
Lohengramm, when he was still called Musel.
Copy !req
332. It was after the victory in the
Battle of Banfried Star Zone.
Copy !req
333. Four years ago?
Copy !req
334. Who's that?
Copy !req
335. He's Commodore
Reinhard von Musel.
Copy !req
336. No, now he's
a Rear Admiral?
Copy !req
337. Whichever, as he's just
turned eighteen, it's a big deal.
Copy !req
338. Indeed. He's the one the high
nobles call the "Blond Brat?"
Copy !req
339. What do you think
of the "Blond Brat?"
Copy !req
340. There's an old saying.
Copy !req
341. That a baby tiger may
be mistaken for a cat.
Copy !req
342. When you look at Reinhard von Musel,
is he a tiger or a cat?
Copy !req
343. Probably a tiger.
Copy !req
344. Because the enemy is under
no obligation to lose...
Copy !req
345. just because he's the brother
of the Kaiser's favorite.
Copy !req
346. No doubt,
he was a tiger.
Copy !req
347. No...
Copy !req
348. he's a lion.
Copy !req
349. Indeed. The lion is
the king of the animals.
Copy !req
350. But I also didn't realize
Kircheis' influence was so great.
Copy !req
351. If Kircheis were alive, he'd surely dissuade
Prince Lohengramm from this dispatch.
Copy !req
352. If Siegfried Kircheis
were alive...?
Copy !req
353. Expected warp time in 45 seconds.
Copy !req
354. The warp out point, outside of the Valhalla
Star Zone, is shown on the main screen.
Copy !req
355. I don't see Schaft.
Copy !req
356. He's on Geiersberg
with Kempf and Muller.
Copy !req
357. Well, that's not
like him, is it?
Copy !req
358. Of course he
was unwilling.
Copy !req
359. But Prince Lohengramm seems to
have ordered him to be aboard.
Copy !req
360. Indeed. But will the huge fortress, 45 km in
diameter, warp out at those coordinates?
Copy !req
361. It will no doubt be
a dramatic spectacle, but...
Copy !req
362. Until the bitter end, it's a
story of "if" it succeeds, right?
Copy !req
363. In 10 seconds...
Copy !req
364. 9...
Copy !req
365. 8...
Copy !req
366. 7...
Copy !req
367. 6...
Copy !req
368. 5...
Copy !req
369. 4...
Copy !req
370. 3...
Copy !req
371. 2...
Copy !req
372. 1...
Copy !req
373. The fortress and its surrounding
area show no abnormalities.
Copy !req
374. With the successful warping of Geiersberg,
a fleet of 16,000 ships and 2 million troops...
Copy !req
375. formally embarked on
the road towards Iserlohn.
Copy !req
376. It was Imperial Year 489, March 18.
Copy !req
377. On the same day, Yang Wenli, who had
been recalled by the government...
Copy !req
378. was getting ready to
leave Iserlohn Fortress.
Copy !req
379. Julian, about how
tall are you?
Copy !req
380. 173 centimeters...
Copy !req
381. I'll be outstripped
next year, won't I?
Copy !req
382. Although you weren't even up
to my shoulder when we first met.
Copy !req
383. I'm going to go and
look at Geiersberg.
Copy !req
384. I want to be alone
for a little while.
Copy !req
385. No one must come in.
Copy !req
386. Is this where
Admiral Kircheis...?
Copy !req
387. Lord Reinhard, please
gain the universe.
Copy !req
388. And please tell
Lady Annerose...
Copy !req
389. that Sieg kept
his old promise.
Copy !req
390. Yes, Kircheis...
Copy !req
391. you kept your promise.
Copy !req
392. Therefore, I will keep
my promise to you.
Copy !req
393. No matter what I do,
I'll take the universe.
Copy !req
394. And then I will go
to meet my sister!
Copy !req
395. But I'm cold, Kircheis.
Copy !req
396. In a universe without you and
my sister, warm light is lacking.
Copy !req
397. If I went back to that time twelve years
ago, and if I could redo things once more...
Copy !req
398. could the world be a little
more bright and warm for me...
Copy !req
399. Kircheis?
Copy !req
400. Prince Lohengramm won't open his
heart to anyone other than to the dead?
Copy !req
401. That's too lonely!
Copy !req
402. Why is he trying to destroy the
former Reich, and rule space?
Copy !req
403. He can't go on like this!
Copy !req
404. He can't!
Copy !req

Copy !req
406. Summoned by the National Defense Council, Yang returned to Planet Heinessen.
Copy !req
407. There, he was kept separated
from Frederica and the others...
Copy !req
408. and was committed to a
court of inquiry by himself.
