5. Damn, seems like the alcohol poisoning
has finally reached my brain.Copy !req
6. I even see hallucinations
I don't want to see.Copy !req
7. Those gloomy faces...Copy !req
8. Commander Poplan,
please quit drinking.Copy !req
9. It's not good
for your health.Copy !req
10. Commander, please.Copy !req
11. Shut up, greenhorn!Copy !req
12. Why should I listen to orders from
people other than Yang Wenli?Copy !req
13. I should have the right to
choose who will give me orders.Copy !req
14. That's what democracy
is about, isn't it?Copy !req
15. Commander Poplan,
I now officially inform you.Copy !req
16. Because of Fleet Admiral Yang Wenli's
death, Julian will become our commander.Copy !req
17. So I will make this
clear to you now.Copy !req
18. Commander Poplan...Copy !req
19. from now on you won't be allowed to disagree with Julian's command authority...Copy !req
20. or make statements that compromise
the Headquarters' leadership.Copy !req
21. Even if Julian
allows it, I won't.Copy !req
22. Are you unhappy with that?Copy !req
23. If that's the case,
leave Iserlohn.Copy !req
24. There's no need for you to be here if
you're not going to be of any use to Julian!Copy !req
25. No, I'm not
unhappy with it.Copy !req
26. Hello, Commander!Copy !req
27. From today on,
I will renew my spirit.Copy !req
28. Please don't abandon me
from now on, either.Copy !req
29. I've thought about
it on many occasions.Copy !req
30. At the time I was defeated by Reinhard
von Lohengramm in the Lippstadt War...Copy !req
31. it might perhaps have been
better for me to have died.Copy !req
32. But I no longer
think that way.Copy !req
33. Until I was almost 60 years old,
I'd always lived a life afraid of failure.Copy !req
34. I'm finally beginning to learn that
there is another kind of life...Copy !req
35. and I have to repay my debt, be grateful or
whatever, to the people who taught that to me.Copy !req
36. On June 6th,
Iserlohn Fortress...Copy !req
37. under the name of the Interim Revolutionary
Force Commander, Julian Minci...Copy !req
38. announced the death of Yang Wenli
and held a formal funeral.Copy !req
39. At the same time, the El Facil Revolutionary
Government declared its disbandment...Copy !req
40. and it ended
its short life.Copy !req
41. On the same day, at 19:10,
Iserlohn Fortress's communication...Copy !req
42. sent to all areas of space, was
intercepted by the Imperial Fleets.Copy !req
43. Your Majesty, I have
a report for you.Copy !req
44. Just now, Iserlohn Fortress has delivered
to all areas of space the report of a death.Copy !req
45. Yang Wenli has passed away.Copy !req
46. Fraulein...Copy !req
47. Fraulein...!Copy !req
48. I've heard a lot of bad news from
you before, but this is the worst.Copy !req
49. Do you have the right to
disappoint me to this degree?Copy !req
50. Anyone and everyone, be they friend
or foe, they all go and leave me behind.Copy !req
51. Why don't they continue
to live on, for my sake?Copy !req
52. I need an enemy.Copy !req
53. I don't remember having given that man the right to be defeated by anyone but myself!Copy !req
54. That man didn't let me win,
at Vermilion or Iserlohn Corridor.Copy !req
55. He killed many of
my valuable admirals!Copy !req
56. And in the end, you tell me he died at
the hands of someone other than me?Copy !req
57. Fraulein Mariendorf.Copy !req
58. Yes, Your Majesty.Copy !req
59. I want to send someone
to Iserlohn as my agent.Copy !req
60. As a messenger of
condolence, that is.Copy !req
61. Who do you think
would be suitable?Copy !req
62. Shall I go myself?Copy !req
63. No, I want you to
remain at my side.Copy !req
64. You are my Chief Superintendent
of the Staff Officers, after all.Copy !req
65. How silly of me.
What did I hope for just now?Copy !req
66. His Majesty is this
kind of a person...Copy !req
67. Right, why don't
I have Muller go?Copy !req
68. Come to think of it, he met Yang
once after the Battle of Vermilion.Copy !req
69. Yang Wenli's death was a significant
shock not only to Reinhard...Copy !req
70. but also to the other admirals
of the Imperial Fleet.Copy !req
71. Are you sure Yang
Wenli actually died?Copy !req
72. Isn't it possible that he's feigning his
death and is alive somewhere now?Copy !req
73. There is no reason for Yang to use
such a scheme at this juncture.Copy !req
74. With that trickster, we never
know what he's plotting.Copy !req
75. I'd always thought Yang Wenli's defeat
rested solely in the hands of one person...Copy !req
76. Mein Kaiser, and that no one, not even the
Supreme God, Odin, could violate that rule.Copy !req
77. There's no way he'd
die in that way.Copy !req
78. This has got to be an
evil trap of some sort.Copy !req
79. He's still alive
and hiding somewhere.Copy !req
80. By the way, who is this Julian Minci
who claims to be Yang's successor?Copy !req
81. I don't recognize his name from
among the admirals of the Yang Fleet.Copy !req
82. He was Yang Wenli's foster son,
and his rank is Lieutenant Junior Grade.Copy !req
83. He is 18 years old.Copy !req
84. I see.
I feel sorry for him.Copy !req
85. He has a tough road ahead.Copy !req
86. Because his
predecessor was so great.Copy !req
87. No matter who
becomes his successor...Copy !req
88. there's no way he will be able to do
as much as, or better than, Yang Wenli.Copy !req
89. There's no guarantee that his
subordinates will follow him.Copy !req
90. The last fortress of
Republican Democracy...Copy !req
91. while still remaining invincible to the
enemy, may finally crumble from within.Copy !req
92. In that case, the war
will finally end.Copy !req
93. The soldiers, too, will
finally get to go home.Copy !req
94. It's a dissatisfying ending...Copy !req
95. but at least we should welcome the
fact that peace will finally arrive.Copy !req
96. From among the Imperial Fleet destroyers that
were used for Yang Wenli's assassination...Copy !req
97. one was sunk
by the Ulysses...Copy !req
98. and the other one,
while on the run...Copy !req
99. was intercepted by a fleet under the command of Admiral Buro of the Imperial Fleet.Copy !req
100. According to the official report,
they were ordered to capture it...Copy !req
101. but because it resisted, there was
no choice but to destroy it as well.Copy !req
102. Because of this, the actual culprits
in Yang's assassination...Copy !req
103. were "martyred" without
having their names known.Copy !req
104. The fact that the culprits in Yang's assassination were disguised as Imperial soldiers...Copy !req
105. was immediately investigated but the suicide of about ten or so officers and junior officers...Copy !req
106. made it extremely difficult to
uncover the truth of the affair.Copy !req
107. This incident, along with the earlier
attempted assassination of Wahlen...Copy !req
108. led to the realization
that Terraism's influence...Copy !req
109. was deeply rooted
within the Imperial Fleet.Copy !req
110. In the end, we only found out
that they were Terraists...Copy !req
111. and we still know nothing about the
background circumstances of the affair.Copy !req
112. I wouldn't be surprised if that sharp
Chief Minister of the Military Affairs...Copy !req
113. had extended an invisible hand from Phezzan to stab Yang Wenli in the heart with a knife.Copy !req
114. But even for that man...Copy !req
115. I would think it's impossible to rule all the
conspiracies that exist in this universe.Copy !req
116. I couldn't stand
it if it were.Copy !req
117. By the way, the problem is what should
we do with Iserlohn after Yang's death?Copy !req
118. I presume you have your
own ideas about it?Copy !req
119. Yang's death does not necessarily
mean the arrival of peace.Copy !req
120. The republicans are still entrenched
in Iserlohn Fortress, after all.Copy !req
121. From the standpoint of both political and war strategy we have no choice but to attack them.Copy !req
122. First, we advise
them to surrender.Copy !req
123. If they don't accept, we'll strike with
the entirety of the Imperial Fleet.Copy !req
124. What do you think?Copy !req
125. I agree.Copy !req
126. With Yang Wenli's death, the Supreme God,
Odin, has given the universe to the Kaiser.Copy !req
127. Not to take it would be a
betrayal of the divine will.Copy !req
128. But...Copy !req
129. But...?Copy !req
130. But the Kaiser would not find it honorable
to strike at a force that is in mourning.Copy !req
131. You will probably say that it's
nothing more than sentimentality.Copy !req
132. Until just now,
I thought so, too.Copy !req
133. You're saying you've
changed your mind?Copy !req
134. It depends on how
we think, Reuental.Copy !req
135. In the beginning, both you and I were
opposed to invading the Iserlohn Corridor.Copy !req
136. The reason the Kaiser did not take our advice
was that his great rival, Yang Wenli, was there.Copy !req
137. Now that he's gone, it's only natural for the
Kaiser to return to his original strategy.Copy !req
138. I think you know this.Copy !req
139. That the strategy that was right
yesterday is not necessarily right today.Copy !req
140. We can't say that the strategy that
was right when Yang Wenli was alive...Copy !req
141. does not necessarily maintain
its utmost value after his death.Copy !req
142. But...Copy !req
143. if the Kaiser's and your
opinions agree with one another...Copy !req
144. my opinion might be
the one that's wrong.Copy !req
145. From now on, the nature of
the Imperial Fleet will change.Copy !req
146. Its objective will be maintaining public peace
and order, rather than foreign expeditions.Copy !req
147. That is, if everything settles down.Copy !req
148. And that's good, too.Copy !req
149. Many soldiers will be able to
return to their homes alive.Copy !req
150. The unification of the universe
has all but been accomplished...Copy !req
151. so we should consider
that all is well.Copy !req
152. And you'll be able to return to your
beloved wife, right, Mittermeyer?Copy !req
153. Yeah, thankfully.Copy !req
154. By the way, I've been
concerned about it...Copy !req
155. so what happened to the woman
who became pregnant with your child?Copy !req
156. It was born on May 5th.Copy !req
157. I heard it was a boy.Copy !req
158. I see.Copy !req
159. He must surely be my child.Copy !req
160. Parent and child, both generations, were
born even though we shouldn't have been.Copy !req
161. If he grows up safely, he
will be such a detested man.Copy !req
162. He might even have
my mismatched eyes.Copy !req
163. Reuental, I can understand why you
aren't interested in that woman, but...Copy !req
164. The child who was born
is not sinful, right?Copy !req
165. I don't know.Copy !req
166. I don't have a child, so...Copy !req
167. It's better
not to have one.Copy !req
168. You don't have to worry
about being betrayed.Copy !req
169. But let's drop the subject.Copy !req
170. We have no reason to fight over
a child whom we haven't even met.Copy !req
171. Yeah, you're right.Copy !req
172. Well, I'll get going.Copy !req
173. Whether we fight or don't fight,
there are a lot of things to be done.Copy !req
174. Once the war is over, you'll finally be
the Governor-General of Neue Land.Copy !req
175. Since the place of your
appointment will be far away...Copy !req
176. we'll have fewer opportunities
to have a drink like this.Copy !req
177. After slightly awkwardly
shaking hands, they parted.Copy !req
178. Of course, they couldn't
know at this time...Copy !req
179. that for the "Matchless Twin
Stars" of the Imperial Force...Copy !req
180. it would be the last
time they'd shake hands...Copy !req
181. and it was the last
drink they'd have together.Copy !req
182. These were the events on
June 8th of New Imperial Calendar 2.Copy !req
183. Immediately after Muller departed
as a messenger of condolence...Copy !req
184. a withdrawal order
was given to all fleets.Copy !req
185. As Mittermeyer predicted, Reinhard
would not attack a force in mourning.Copy !req
186. Still, he probably would not
have taken this stance...Copy !req
187. back when he was fighting
against the high aristocrats.Copy !req
188. Is this a result of his chivalry or of
the enervation of the Kaiser's ambition?Copy !req
189. Mittermeyer and Reuental pondered
over the same question in their hearts...Copy !req
190. while they diligently
fulfilled their respective duties.Copy !req
191. On June 12th, as an
agent of Kaiser Reinhard...Copy !req
192. High Admiral Neithardt Muller of the Imperial Fleet...Copy !req
193. visited Iserlohn Fortress
to express condolences.Copy !req
194. Is it safe to
invite them in?Copy !req
195. Could this be
a surprise attack?Copy !req
196. Considering Kaiser
Reinhard's character...Copy !req
197. I don't think he would
take such sneaky measures.Copy !req
198. Besides, taking into account the war
potential differentials at present...Copy !req
199. I don't think they'd need to sacrifice an
important vassal like High Admiral Muller.Copy !req
200. Kaiser Reinhard loves
making a grand gesture.Copy !req
201. He was like that even when
Admiral Yang was still alive.Copy !req
202. Now that he's dead...Copy !req
203. there's no way he would use such sneaky
tactics against small-time opponents like us.Copy !req
204. When he was still alive, he
often praised Admiral Muller.Copy !req
205. I'm sure he will be happy
that he is visiting him.Copy !req
206. I'd definitely like
to let them meet.Copy !req
207. I'm glad to have had the
opportunity to meet you.Copy !req
208. For our Fleet, your husband was our
strongest, as well as our best opponent.Copy !req
209. Thank you.Copy !req
210. When he was still alive, Yang Wenli
used to talk about you, Admiral.Copy !req
211. I'm certain he's glad
that you came today.Copy !req
212. Herr Minci.Copy !req
213. Although I have not been granted
any political authority by the Kaiser...Copy !req
214. if you wished to express to the
Kaiser your intention to submit...Copy !req
215. I'd be happy to
report it to the Kaiser.Copy !req
216. What do you think?Copy !req
217. Admiral Muller, please excuse me for the
hypothetical situation I will talk about now.Copy !req
218. If your beloved Kaiser passes away, will you
consider changing the flag that you uphold?Copy !req
219. I see. What Herr
Minci says is right.Copy !req
220. I made an
inappropriate statement.Copy !req
221. I apologize.Copy !req
222. No matter how remarkable the individual
is, if we belong to a different camp...Copy !req
223. we have no choice but
to try to kill each other.Copy !req
224. Herr Minci, what is that?Copy !req
225. Oh, that is, if you don't mind my asking,
I wonder if you would enlighten me.Copy !req
226. Those are the people who have given up
on the future of Iserlohn and are leaving.Copy !req
227. Admiral Muller, this may not
be my place to request this...Copy !req
228. but it would be helpful if the Imperial Fleet
could assure their safe return to Heinessen.Copy !req
229. Um, yes...Copy !req
230. Commander, is it true that you
gave those who are leaving...Copy !req
231. access to storage and
permission to take resources?Copy !req
232. Only those kinds that
can be reproduced.Copy !req
233. In any case, we can't
store more than we need...Copy !req
234. so it's better to have them take
some and use them as they like.Copy !req
235. Besides, it's not like we can give
them salaries or retirement pay.Copy !req
236. You're too nice.Copy !req
237. As for the assurances,
I promise you.Copy !req
238. It's not for me to say, but I suppose
it will make things difficult for you...Copy !req
239. if some of those people cooperate
with our fleet in the future, won't it?Copy !req
240. Yes, it will make
things difficult.Copy !req
241. But we have no choice
but to accept it.Copy !req
242. There may be cases where some of
them may be forced to cooperate.Copy !req
243. We have no right
to denounce them.Copy !req
244. Well, we must be leaving.Copy !req
245. Next time, we'll most likely
meet on the battlefield.Copy !req
246. Until then, please be well.Copy !req
247. I hope we both will be.Copy !req
248. Even while he was ill, Kaiser Reinhard did
not neglect his duty as an autocratic ruler.Copy !req
249. While he left most military affairs largely to
Fleet Admirals Reuental and Mittermeyer...Copy !req
250. he had no choice but to take care
of political affairs on his own.Copy !req
251. That's because he wasn't able to
find anyone for political affairs...Copy !req
252. equal to what his Fleet Admirals
are to military affairs.Copy !req
253. In that regard, Reinhard was
beginning to feel regretful...Copy !req
254. about the loss of Silverberche
to the terrorist attack.Copy !req
255. He could have
asked it of Hilda.Copy !req
256. But Reinhard had appointed her the
Superintendent of the Staff Officers...Copy !req
257. strengthened her military authority, thereby
weakening her input to political affairs.Copy !req
258. Even under an
autocratic government...Copy !req
259. the distinction between military servants
and political servants had to be observed.Copy !req
260. Hilda herself understood
her position and authority...Copy !req
261. so she tried not to advise him on
items regarding national politics.Copy !req
262. That's right.Copy !req
263. Unless I make the Fraulein Imperial
Prime Minister or something...Copy !req
264. you can't consult with me.Copy !req
265. Your Majesty...Copy !req
266. Reinhard's policy
at this time...Copy !req
267. was something that could be
characterized as a revolution from the top.Copy !req
268. The improvement of
the welfare system...Copy !req
269. as proposed by Minister of
Civil Administration, Karl Blakke...Copy !req
270. significantly contributed to
the realization of social justice...Copy !req
271. under the autocracy that is the main
feature of the Lohengramm Dynasty.Copy !req
272. Also, Reinhard himself had
not said so publicly...Copy !req
273. but that policy may have been aimed at
the natural abolishment of the aristocracy...Copy !req
274. and the establishment of
free imperial governance...Copy !req
275. that would connect the people
directly with the Kaiser.Copy !req
276. Your Majesty, won't
you eat your meal?Copy !req
277. I don't have
an appetite.Copy !req
278. But Your Majesty, if you don't eat,
you won't regain your strength.Copy !req
279. In order for you to get better soon, please eat
your meal even if you don't have the appetite.Copy !req
280. Emil!Copy !req
281. Are you going to give an
order to me, the Kaiser?Copy !req
282. Must I eat a meal that I don't want to
eat just because a servant demands it?Copy !req
283. I understand, Emil.Copy !req
284. I sometimes can't
control my short temper.Copy !req
285. Forgive me.Copy !req
286. I'll try to eat, even
just one spoon-full.Copy !req
287. After Emil left the room,
Reinhard had two spoonfuls of soup.Copy !req
288. Had the Adjutant, Vice
Admiral Streit, not come in...Copy !req
289. he might have tried to take a
third even though he didn't want to.Copy !req
290. Streit came to discuss matters
concerning Steinmetz's bequest.Copy !req
291. While he was still alive, he had left
a letter that was sort of like a will...Copy !req
292. and it said he wished to leave
all of his assets to one woman.Copy !req
293. In order to respect the deceased's
will, he sought Reinhard's permission.Copy !req
294. That's fine, but
wasn't Steinmetz single?Copy !req
295. Although he was
not legally married...Copy !req
296. it appears he had a five-year relationship
with a woman named Gretchen von Erhardt.Copy !req
297. Why didn't
he get married?Copy !req
298. Well, it appears
he used to say...Copy !req
299. that until Your Majesty found his Empress,
he, as a vassal, would not take a wife.Copy !req
300. How silly.Copy !req
301. People like Mittermeyer and Eisenach have families even though they are my loyal vassals.Copy !req
302. Steinmetz should
have married, too.Copy !req
303. If you'll excuse me, Your Majesty, as
long as Your Majesty yourself is single...Copy !req
304. it's only natural for your
retainers to follow your example.Copy !req
305. Don't you agree?Copy !req
306. In other words, you want to say
that I should find an Empress.Copy !req
307. In case I die...Copy !req
308. Your Majesty!Copy !req
309. It's not something
to be upset about.Copy !req
310. I'm not the same
as that Rudolf.Copy !req
311. Even if you're a Kaiser, you do
not have eternal youth and life.Copy !req
312. I'm aware of that.Copy !req
313. If I die without a blood descendant,
whoever has the capability...Copy !req
314. I don't care if they're a
vassal or someone else...Copy !req
315. they can just declare themselves
king or emperor or whatever.Copy !req
316. That's what I think anyway.Copy !req
317. Just because I rule
the entire universe...Copy !req
318. there is no reason that my
heirs should inherit it...Copy !req
319. without possessing the
requisite capabilities or renown.Copy !req
320. Upon Muller's return, the Imperial
Fleet began its withdrawal.Copy !req
321. Even though there was no
danger of enemy attack...Copy !req
322. a disorderly withdrawal of their fleets was
something that their pride would not permit.Copy !req
323. At the same time, released from
the Chief of High Command Office...Copy !req
324. Reuental departed for Heinessen for his appointment as Governor-General of Neue Land.Copy !req
325. Mein Kaiser, you have provided me with
unmerited position and authority...Copy !req
326. but I wonder what
you truly wish for.Copy !req
327. Are you satisfied as long as I am merely a
loyal and useful cog of your domination?Copy !req
328. Do you think this is the
end of it all, Admiral?Copy !req
329. I don't know.Copy !req
330. I feel as though half of the
universe has become empty.Copy !req
331. For our Fleet, Yang Wenli
was the hated archrival...Copy !req
332. but it is also true that
he was a great tactician.Copy !req
333. In order for the daylight to be truly like daylight, it needs the night.Copy !req
334. By the same token, I wonder if that
man was necessary for our Fleet.Copy !req
335. Once we return to Phezzan, we'll
have several consecutive funerals.Copy !req
336. Fahrenheit, Steinmetz,
and Silverberche...Copy !req
337. What a year.Copy !req
338. For the Lohengramm Dynasty, it has
been a tremendously unfortunate year.Copy !req
339. We still have six
months left in the year.Copy !req
340. Please don't scare
me, Fleet Admiral!Copy !req
341. As far as
I'm concerned...Copy !req
342. I'd like to think that we've used up all our
misfortune for this year in the first half.Copy !req
343. If there were a fixed amount
of misfortunes or mishaps...Copy !req
344. it would make it easier for
us to plan for the future.Copy !req
345. That way, I might perhaps not have to make Eva worry each time I leave for an expedition.Copy !req
346. Bayerlein, do you have
a girlfriend or two?Copy !req
347. No.Copy !req
348. You don't?Copy !req
349. Not even one?Copy !req
350. Um, well, for me, the
Fleet is my lover, so...Copy !req
351. Um, no, I hope to find a beautiful
woman like the Fleet Admiral's wife...Copy !req
352. but it hasn't
quite worked...Copy !req
353. Bayerlein!Copy !req
354. Sir!Copy !req
355. I think I've taught
