2. OF THE
Copy !req
3. Provisional Imperial Fleet Supreme Headquarters
Copy !req
4. At the party that celebrated the arrival of Space Calendar 801, New Imperial Calendar 3...
Copy !req
5. Kaiser Reinhard publicly announced that
he would marry Hildegard von Mariendorf.
Copy !req
6. Hoff Kaiserin!
Copy !req
7. Hoff Kaiserin Hildegard!
Copy !req
8. Hoff Kaiserin Hildegard!
Copy !req
9. A toast the Kaiser and Kaiserin!
Copy !req
10. Cheers!
Copy !req
11. The joy that filled the night garden reached
its height when the people were told...
Copy !req
12. that Hilda was expected to give
birth to a child in early June.
Copy !req
13. A toast to the Prince!
Copy !req
14. No way!
Copy !req
15. It's a toast to the
beautiful Princess!
Copy !req
16. Either way, it's
really good fortune.
Copy !req
17. Especially because the past year
was such a troubling year.
Copy !req
18. I hope this year will
be a happy, peaceful year.
Copy !req
19. His Majesty's engagement is an omen
for peace and prosperity, above all.
Copy !req
20. Prosit!
Copy !req
21. His Majesty appears to have regained
his good health, so if a prince is born...
Copy !req
22. the Lohengramm Dynasty
will be quite secure.
Copy !req
23. Whichever of the parents the child resembles,
the child will be bright and beautiful.
Copy !req
24. It's something to
look forward to.
Copy !req
25. There was no one who objected to the
marriage between Hilda and Kaiser Reinhard.
Copy !req
26. It was perhaps partly because the
genial character of Hilda's father...
Copy !req
27. Count Franz Mariendorf,
did not at all cause antipathy.
Copy !req
28. It was on January 3rd that Count Mariendorf
informed Reinhard of his intention...
Copy !req
29. to resign from the position of
Chief Minister of Internal Affairs.
Copy !req
30. Reinhard understood
Count Mariendorf's reasons...
Copy !req
31. but he couldn't leave the post
open without deciding on a successor.
Copy !req
32. Count Mariendorf was told to serve
in the position for the time being,
Copy !req
33. which didn't give him much time to bask in the sentimentality of being the father of the bride.
Copy !req
34. For that reason,
Hilda's wedding preparations...
Copy !req
35. were undertaken by the house
servant, Hanz Stelzer, and his wife.
Copy !req
36. What's wrong?
Copy !req
37. Miss Hilda, who was only a little child
till just a while ago, is now a bride.
Copy !req
38. To add to that, she'll be the
bride of His Majesty, the Emperor.
Copy !req
39. I can understand why you'd want to
give yourself up to sentimentality...
Copy !req
40. but it's time for us to
go to the next meeting.
Copy !req
41. Oh, well.
Copy !req
42. There isn't even a month between the
announcement and the wedding ceremony.
Copy !req
43. This is really on
too short a notice.
Copy !req
44. It can't be
helped, can it?
Copy !req
45. Miss Hilda is already
pregnant, after all.
Copy !req
46. But still, I didn't realize
His Majesty was such a Casanova.
Copy !req
47. Honey!
Copy !req
48. Huh...?
Copy !req
49. Oh well, it gets quite lively
when there's a child at home.
Copy !req
50. I wonder if Eisenach's
family is like this...?
Copy !req
51. Oh no...
Copy !req
52. I can't imagine it...
Copy !req
53. Good boy...
Copy !req
54. Eva, do you think I
could be a politician?
Copy !req
55. I'm not sure why
you're asking that...
Copy !req
56. but, Wolf, you're a
fair and honorable man.
Copy !req
57. Those are qualities that
can make a good politician.
Copy !req
58. I'm happy that you're
complimenting me...
Copy !req
59. But you can't govern a nation
with just fairness and honor.
Copy !req
60. Govern a nation?
Copy !req
61. What happened?
Copy !req
62. To tell you the truth...
Copy !req
63. Count Mariendorf said that?
Copy !req
64. Yes.
Copy !req
65. He said that he'd recommend
Admiral Mittermeyer for the post...
Copy !req
66. after he retires as Chief
Minister of Internal Affairs.
Copy !req
67. Admiral, if you don't take the position,
someone like Fleet Admiral Oberstein...
Copy !req
68. the Chief Minister of
Military Affairs, might take it.
Copy !req
69. If that happens...
Copy !req
70. I was thinking I'd stay
far away from politics...
Copy !req
71. but I wonder how long I'll
remain a pure military admiral;
Copy !req
72. The situation isn't
looking too hopeful.
Copy !req
73. After it was officially determined that
Hilda would become the Empress...
Copy !req
74. there were many discussions...
Copy !req
75. between the Ministry of the Imperial
Household and the Ministry of Legal Affairs.
Copy !req
76. In short...
Copy !req
77. it was over whether to keep the position of
Empress as merely the wife of the Kaiser...
Copy !req
78. or to make her joint ruler of the
Empire and give her succession rights.
Copy !req
79. As far as Hilda was concerned...
Copy !req
80. Chief Minister of Legal Affairs
Copy !req
81. Bruckdolf
Copy !req
82. it was already an established fact
that she would serve as a joint ruler.
Copy !req
83. And she was such a bright woman that her ability and leadership impressed even Reinhard;
Copy !req
84. Bernheim
Copy !req
85. Chief Minister of the Imperial Household Agency
Copy !req
86. She was more than qualified.
Copy !req
87. But the issue was
concerning the future.
Copy !req
88. In the future, could an incompetent
woman become Empress one day...
Copy !req
89. interfere with the governance,
and cause disorder?
Copy !req
90. Should they limit the Empress's
rights in the matters of governance?
Copy !req
91. The opinions were numerous,
and it seemed endless.
Copy !req
92. Of course, to
the republicans...
Copy !req
93. such discussions are probably
nothing more than objects of derision.
Copy !req
94. To begin with, it's silly to determine succession rights for a supreme position through bloodlines.
Copy !req
95. Putting aside the Empress...
Copy !req
96. if the Emperor himself were
incompetent, spiritless, or slothful...
Copy !req
97. national governance would
be in much more disarray.
Copy !req
98. That opinion is probably right, but as long
as they're under an autocratic system...
Copy !req
99. the high officials of the Empire couldn't ignore the issue of women's influence on their Emperors.
Copy !req
100. On January 25th, someone with as much,
if not more, influence on Reinhard as Hilda...
Copy !req
101. Princess Royal, Annerose Grunewald...
Copy !req
102. arrived on Planet Phezzan to attend
her brother Reinhard's wedding.
Copy !req
103. Vice Admiral Grotewohl
Copy !req
104. Annerose von Grunewald
Copy !req
105. Commodore Paumann
Copy !req
106. In the mansion that was
assigned as her residence...
Copy !req
107. much to her surprise, someone
was awaiting her arrival.
Copy !req
108. Hilda, who was to be the Empress,
was visiting her to pay her respects.
Copy !req
109. It was the second time that
Hilda had met Annerose in person;
Copy !req
110. It had been about two years
since their first meeting.
Copy !req
111. Princess Royal, I thank you for taking
the trouble to make such a long journey.
Copy !req
112. Miss Hilda...
Copy !req
113. That time, too...
Copy !req
114. You'll be the Imperial Mother
in June, won't you, Miss Hilda.
Copy !req
115. Yes, if everything goes well.
Copy !req
116. Once again, I ask you to
take care of my brother.
Copy !req
117. Asking is the only
thing I can do.
Copy !req
118. As a result of asking...
Copy !req
119. I caused misfortune to someone who
had devoted his life to Reinhard...
Copy !req
120. but Miss Hilda, I wish
you nothing but happiness.
Copy !req
121. Miss Annerose...!
Copy !req
122. She was talking
about Admiral Kircheis.
Copy !req
123. The fact of the Admiral's death
has always tormented Miss Annerose.
Copy !req
124. But still, how
pale she looks...
Copy !req
125. Miss Annerose, His Majesty,
Kaiser Reinhard is here.
Copy !req
126. It's been a
long time, Sister.
Copy !req
127. Reinhard...
Copy !req
128. Miss Annerose was forcibly taken away at
the age of 15 by the ruler's selfish demand...
Copy !req
129. and for a decade, she received the
favor of the Emperor, Friedrich IV.
Copy !req
130. I wonder what she was feeling as she
resigned herself to that predicament?
Copy !req
131. There's no way
for me to know.
Copy !req
132. But what's certain is that
if she had refused...
Copy !req
133. the Musels would have been wiped
from the face of the universe.
Copy !req
134. And Miss Annerose sacrificed
herself to protect her brother.
Copy !req
135. If she hadn't existed...
Copy !req
136. neither Reinhard von Lohengramm nor the
Lohengramm Dynasty could have existed.
Copy !req
137. In other words...
Copy !req
138. she's essentially the Mother who gave
birth to the present historical situation.
Copy !req
139. At the time, as His Majesty took control of the
previous dynasty as supreme prime minister...
Copy !req
140. she secluded herself.
Copy !req
141. I wonder if she felt
she was no longer needed?
Copy !req
142. Or...?
Copy !req
143. Fraulein Mariendorf.
Copy !req
144. Yes, Your Majesty.
Copy !req
145. Well, that way of addressing
you will be inappropriate.
Copy !req
146. We'll be getting married, and when that
happens, you'll no longer be Fraulein.
Copy !req
147. Yes, you're right.
Copy !req
148. From now on, I'll
address you as Hilda.
Copy !req
149. In turn, I'd like you to call me
Reinhard, not "Your Majesty."
Copy !req
150. Yes, Your Majesty.
Copy !req
151. Reinhard.
Copy !req
152. Yes...
Copy !req
153. Lord Reinhard.
Copy !req
154. As she replied, she
was almost convinced...
Copy !req
155. that this was probably something
that Annerose suggested to Reinhard.
Copy !req
156. Of course, despite his declaration,
Reinhard later addressed Hilda as "Kaiserin"...
Copy !req
157. and Hilda, too, ended up
calling her husband, "Your Majesty."
Copy !req
158. In this manner, January 29th, the day of
Reinhard and Hilda's wedding arrived.
Copy !req
159. Hotel Shangri-La
Copy !req
160. Oh, well.
Copy !req
161. What kind of weather is this, on a
day that's meant to be propitious.
Copy !req
162. I prayed so much to God,
but how unrewarding.
Copy !req
163. Honey.
Copy !req
164. How gorgeous!
Copy !req
165. Splendid!
Copy !req
166. You look beautiful, Hilda.
Copy !req
167. If your deceased mother could
see this, she'd be really happy.
Copy !req
168. Thank you... Daddy.
Copy !req
169. Count Mariendorf, I should
call you "Father" from now on.
Copy !req
170. I ask for your favor.
Copy !req
171. I am Your Majesty's subject.
Copy !req
172. Please, call me Count
Mariendorf as before.
Copy !req
173. Okay.
Copy !req
174. Mainhoff
Copy !req
175. Chief Secretary of the Cabinet
Copy !req
176. How does it feel to be
His Majesty's father-in-law?
Copy !req
177. Well, um...
Copy !req
178. I... I hereby declare...
Copy !req
179. on January 29th of the
New Imperial Calendar 3...
Copy !req
180. Reinhard von Lohengramm and
Hildegard have become husband and wife.
Copy !req
181. Calm down, Chief Minister
of the Imperial Household.
Copy !req
182. It's not like you're
getting married.
Copy !req
183. Um, yes.
Copy !req
184. Sieg Kaiser!
Copy !req
185. Hoff Kaiserin!
Copy !req
186. Sieg Kaiser!
Copy !req
187. Hoff Kaiserin!
Copy !req
188. Sieg Kaiser Reinhard!
Copy !req
189. Hoff Kaiserin Hildegard!
Copy !req
190. Sieg Kaiser!
Copy !req
191. Hoff Kaiserin!
Copy !req
192. They truly are a
beautiful bride and groom.
Copy !req
193. Sieg Kaiser Reinhard!
Copy !req
194. Fraulein Mariendorf really
looks good at the Kaiser's side.
Copy !req
195. Hoff Kaiserin Hildegard!
Copy !req
196. Darling, she's not "Fraulein
Mariendorf" any longer.
Copy !req
197. She's Her Majesty,
Kaiserin Hildegard.
Copy !req
198. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
199. You're right.
Copy !req
200. To tell you my honest feelings, Admiral Muller,
as the groom at a wedding ceremony...
Copy !req
201. the Kaiser is simply just a
handsome man, I'm afraid to say.
Copy !req
202. But as the supreme fleet admiral who leads
entire fleets, he's really a godly person.
Copy !req
203. Don't you think so, too?
Copy !req
204. I think he's quite
godly as a groom, too.
Copy !req
205. The wedding of those two
is really a happy event.
Copy !req
206. But...
Copy !req
207. Come to think of it, as a part of
the amnesty involving this wedding...
Copy !req
208. that scoundrel Lang's
execution also got postponed.
Copy !req
209. It's merely a postponement, but...
Copy !req
210. Your Majesty the Emperor, if you'll excuse
me, I have something to report to you.
Copy !req
211. According to the report from the
Ministry of Military Affairs...
Copy !req
212. anti-Imperial riots have broken out on
Heinessen, the former Alliance capital.
Copy !req
213. Couldn't you have waited until
the ceremony was over?
Copy !req
214. It's not something you have to report right now, is it!
Copy !req
215. That's right!
Copy !req
216. On such a propitious day, you shouldn't
have done something as impolite as this!
Copy !req
217. That's right!
Copy !req
218. Yeah!
Copy !req
219. What's wrong with him?
Copy !req
220. Propitious events can wait.
Copy !req
221. But misfortunes can't.
Copy !req
222. Especially when it involves things that
concern the security of the nation...
Copy !req
223. we have the obligation to inform His Majesty, regardless of what he decides in the end.
Copy !req
224. Mein Kaiser...
Copy !req
225. there's no need for you to take it upon
your precious self to quiet such petty riots.
Copy !req
226. Admiral Wahlen is there, and in the unlikely
event he cannot control them himself...
Copy !req
227. we, your subjects, will move in,
so Your Majesty, please rest assured.
Copy !req
228. Reinhard wanted Hilda's advice,
but she chose not to speak.
Copy !req
229. That is because Hilda had retired from the post of Supreme Headquarters Staff Superintendent...
Copy !req
230. and as Empress, she wanted to avoid the
appearance of meddling while in public view.
Copy !req
231. Very well.
Copy !req
232. For the time being, we'll count on
Admiral Wahlen to deal with the issue.
Copy !req
233. But all of you should prepare
for a potential campaign.
Copy !req
234. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
235. Sieg Kaiser!
Copy !req
236. Hoff Kaiserin!
Copy !req
237. Sieg Kaiser Reinhard!
Copy !req
238. Hoff Kaiserin Hildegard!
Copy !req
239. Sieg Kaiser!
Copy !req
240. Hoff Kaiserin!
Copy !req
241. Sieg Kaiser Reinhard!
Copy !req
242. Hoff Kaiserin Hildegard!
Copy !req
243. Where is the Grand Bishop?
Copy !req
244. We'd like to see
the Grand Bishop!
Copy !req
245. The Grand Bishop is meditating.
Copy !req
246. Again?
Copy !req
247. Every time we
ask to meet him...
Copy !req
248. you always give excuses like meditation
or moralistic training and refuse us!
Copy !req
249. Among the loyal believers, there is a
growing sense of misgivings and suspicions.
Copy !req
250. Ever since our headquarters on Earth
was destroyed by the Imperial Fleet...
Copy !req
251. the Grand Bishop hasn't
appeared before us.
Copy !req
252. That's right!
Copy !req
253. Why doesn't he appear
in front of us?
Copy !req
254. Why?
Copy !req
255. If we could see him once, the
believers would all be reassured.
Copy !req
256. Why do you keep turning us down?
Copy !req
257. He used to give us his valuable
words almost every day!
Copy !req
258. That's right!
Copy !req
259. In recent days...
Copy !req
260. there are some who've spread strange
rumors like the Grand Bishop has died...
Copy !req
261. but you aren't one of those people who
is deceived by such rumors, are you?
Copy !req
262. Not at all.
Copy !req
263. But as believers, we'd just
like to see the Grand Bishop.
Copy !req
264. I see.
Copy !req
265. That's fine, then.
Copy !req
266. Kaiser Reinhard
has gotten married...
Copy !req
267. and that little wench Mariendorf,
who's become Empress, is pregnant.
Copy !req
268. The child that's to be born in June might
be a male child with succession rights.
Copy !req
269. At an important time like this, when the
fate of the universe hangs in the balance...
Copy !req
270. you come flooding in to make
noises and disturb the Grand Bishop!
Copy !req
271. What's the meaning of this?
Copy !req
272. Precisely because it's
an important time...
Copy !req
273. it's only natural that we
want to see the Grand Bishop...
Copy !req
274. and receive
his valuable words!
Copy !req
275. The Grand Bishop isn't the sole possession
of high-ranked religious officials, is he?
Copy !req
276. He's someone who gives all
of us teachings and mercy!
Copy !req
277. Whether you're an archbishop
or a common believer...
Copy !req
278. all believers are
supposed to be equal.
Copy !req
279. That's right!
Copy !req
280. Grand Bishop!
Copy !req
281. Those who abandon the
Earth should all perish.
Copy !req
282. Those idiots who believe that they could live
on despite having cut off the roots themselves.
Copy !req
283. De Villier is my
right-hand man.
Copy !req
284. Follow his directions and lend
your support for his success.
Copy !req
285. With that, the day when we can
recover Earth's glory will come soon.
Copy !req
286. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
287. Idiots...
Copy !req
288. On January 29th of
New Imperial Calendar 3...
Copy !req
289. the same day Kaiser
Reinhard von Lohengramm...
Copy !req
290. married Hildegard
von Mariendorf...
Copy !req
291. the kindling charcoal of conspiracy and disquietude was beginning to smoke in the universe.
