The Galactic Empire, Goldenbaum.
The 36th King Friedrick the 4th.
This dynasty is prosperous.
When he ascended the throne at 39 years old,
he has shown signs of fatigue.
Friedrick the 4th was not interested in national affairs.
He indulged himself all the time.
When he was in his mid forties,
Friedrick the 4th,
began his search for young beauties.
At first it was the daughter of Bettany, Susanna
who was his pet.
But this relationship didn't last.
One day, an official...
found a 15 year old girl named Annerose on the street.
When Annerose was brought to the palace,
she became Friedrick's pet.
She was dubbed the Countess of Grunewald.
Annerose accepted her fate.
10 years later,
The Capital of the Empire, Odin
Your Majesty!
Bettany...
Your Majesty. Why don't you come nearer?
It's all that woman's fault.
It's her fault.
I hate her.
That Annerose took you away from me.
I want to tear her face out.
And eat her bones too.
Your Majesty don't look very good nowadays.
This is also why she came.
That woman has cast a shadow over Reich
She may bring disasters.
That's what the aristocrats say too.
I think we should just drive her out.
Flegel. Do you think so?
Yes. And that arrogant fellow too.
That's right.
Just because he is her brother,
he raised to the post of a Marshal.
He's just trying to pull connections.
The order of the Empire is slowly being destroyed by them.
We the aristocrats are fearful of this.
All those who care about the Empire,
they will also feel the same.
If we can get rid of Annerose,
her brother will also lose his status.
Are you willing to help me then?
Our aim is the same.
Of course I'm willing to.
It is not enough to drive her out.
We must kill her too.
She must die humiliated.
This is what she deserves.
For the sake of Lady Bettany,
I am willing to use all my power to help.
Really? Then I must depend on you.
You must be careful when you employ people.
You must not reveal my name.
Yes, I'll be careful.
There's no need to let Lady Bettany,
avoid the public.
If anything goes wrong,
you can push the blame to her.
I have prepared for this.
Besides, don't forget to silence them.
Must we silence Lady Bettany As well?
Of course, she's so stupid.
Even when the sun has set, I must bring it up.
Even if it's Lady Grunewald, who will die due to this.
The King will no longer be able to favor her.
Before the sun sets,
she should think of a way to stop it.
This is the right way.
No matter what,
in order to make him lose his status,
you must help her.
Yes.
I had a dream last night.
I dreamt that I was young...
and I was with you and my sister. We had a lot of fun.
I often thought of something.
Which side is real?
Is it the past or the present?
Past or the present?
Yes.
I may be dreaming now.
I may be still in my dreams now.
I really think so sometimes.
Someday, I'll wake up. I'll go back to the day...
when I was a kid, following Reinhard.
And Annerose was beside me.
Hence I told Annerose loudly,
I had a dream.
In that dream, we became soldiers.
We boarded the spacecraft and went to war.
I called you here today.
I kept this thing.
Madam B wants to kill Madam G.
You must be careful.
Madam G...
It should be my sister Lady Grunewald.
Then Madam B must be...
I think it must be Lady Bettany.
I think so too.
It seems like we cannot leave it alone.
I just told Oberstein to investigate.
As one becomes favored,
others will lose their status.
There's hatred and envy in the palace.
It's a place full of ugliness.
Those who hate Princess Annerose and Reinhard...
must be many.
There could be some plots lurking behind.
This message was sent here...
and this means that there is more than one enemy.
The worst thing is...
when these enemies cooperate.
The palace is like a web of conspiracy.
There are all kinds of schemes and evil plots.
This place is not suitable for my sister.
At this time, the Reich Empire...
held several meetings,
to discuss the recapture of lserlohn Fortress.
Reinhard was very busy as a result.
On the other hand,
The rumor that Lady Bettany wants to kill Lady Grunewald
has spread throughout the palace.
What did you say?
His Majesty told me to move out to the countryside?
This is his order.
If this is what he wants,
I will obey him.
But why did he not come here...
personally to tell me?
Why?
That's because he's very busy.
He's busy?
If he has time for that woman, how busy can he be?
It must be that woman.
It must be her who spoke ill of me.
Lady Bettany.
Pardon my rudeness.
From my experience serving Lady Grunewald,
I have never heard of her speaking ill of anyone.
I think it could be His Majesty's decision.
Even you are standing up for her.
Get out now!
I have delivered His Majesty's message.
Why, oh why?
Why can't you understand me?
I've heard what you said just now.
Flegel, what should I do now?
I guess we have to show our power.
The rumors in the palace...
must have been...
spread by Lady Grunewald herself.
It must be that woman...
who pretends to be innocent but wants to drive me out.
I can't wait any longer. Act on our plan now.
No problem.
I will lend you my most trusted men.
But you must keep this a secret.
I know.
Flegel, I can only depend on you now.
Princess Annerose.
Things have gone wrong.
Marshal Lohengramm...
My brother?
Marshal Lohengramm was injured during the practice lesson.
My brother...
They've sent someone to inform you. Please go now.
I know. I'll go now.
Isn't that Lady Grunewald?
I think it's her.
Supporting our frontlines...
is the undefeatable lserlohn Fortress.
We must get it back no matter what.
This is our mission.
Regarding the strategy,
Vice Admiral Kircheis, where are you?
How come all of you are here?
I went to Admiral Kircheis's room to look for him.
But he wasn't there.
The meeting may drag on. Is the meeting still on?
What's the matter?
It's like this.
We saw Lady Grunewald on the way.
Princess Annerose?
Yes.
She looks flustered. I wonder where she's rushing to.
We were worried.
This is strange.
She usually doesn't leave her premises.
Her car was heading for the suburbs in the west.
Don't tell me...
Who are you?
You had better listen to me.
I'm sorry but I've an emergency...
and I'm looking for Marshal Lohengramm.
I'm sorry but he's in a meeting right now.
Can I take a message?
This is an emergency.
I hope to talk to him personally.
This is the rule. I can't let you in.
Please leave a message.
I know. It doesn't matter.
There's no need to worry him.
Admiral Mittermeier.
You said that the car was heading west?
Yes.
Where are you going?
I'm worried. I'm going to take a look.
Alone?
This is my private matter.
We will leave our fates to Marshal Lohengramm.
How can this be your private matter?
But...
The only clue is the car.
Without the both of us who have seen it,
how can you find it alone?
I know. So please help me.
So it's you. You're Lady Bettany.
Why did you capture me?
Shameless woman.
You vixen.
You are the vixen who blinded the King.
You can't escape me.
You stole the King's heart.
And together with your brother, you're going to steal the country.
No, I never wanted to do these.
Shut up!
But your evil plot is going to be exposed.
Drink this.
Tomorrow,
your corpse will be discovered among the grass.
And it will be lying beside an unknown man.
Then people will start to say...
this Lady Grunewald is such a cheap woman.
Sleeping around behind the King's back.
You will be known as a shameless slut
and your name will be forgotten.
Drink it!
I think it's that car.
And that small cottage?
A lot of aristocrats' villas are in this district.
Let's take a look.
There are 2 enemies.
Marshal Lohengramm, the right side is yours.
And the left side, you.
Vice Admiral Kircheis, cover me.
That's smart.
Sieg.
You can only stop here.
Are you Lady Bettany?
You'll not benefit from this.
It's not too late to turn back now.
I advise you to let Lady Grunewald go now. Let her go now.
Stop dreaming and put down your guns!
Do you want me to hurt her?
You two.
Princess Annerose.
Sieg, thank God you're here.
It's all right now.
Forgive me for being late.
No, it's better to be late.
Oberstein, did you cut the electricity supply?
We've to go and report to the colonel.
Marshal Lohengramm.
Vice Admiral Kircheis has looked for you several times.
He wants you to contact him.
Vice Admiral Kircheis, what happened?
Princess Annerose was slightly hurt but she's all right.
I've sent her back to the palace.
Who's the criminal?
Lady Bettany.
This is a little complicated.
I think it's better to leave it to the lmperial Police.
As for who she employed to be the killer,we're not sure.
No, I know.
It's Flegel who was plotting all along.
Flegel?
You must be careful of your sister's safety.
But unfortunately, I've no evidence.
Useless fools!
I'm sorry for my incapability.
Never let them reveal the secret.
Do you know what you're supposed to do?
Yes. But, Sir.
How should we deal with Lady Bettany?
I've no choice but to ask His Majesty to deal with her.
I never expected Susanna to be so foolish.
She values the King's affection too much.
Of course.
And that's why when she lost his favor, she must get it back.
Try to end her life painlessly.
Yes.
She's still very pretty. If only she'd waited.
Where's His Majesty?
Let me see His Majesty.
I represent the Empire...
to announce the message of King Friedrick the Fourth.
Lady Bettany kidnapped Lady Grunewald,
and plotted to murder her.
As her crime is too serious, Lady Bettany will be put to death.
Due to the affection the King has for her, she will die by suicide.
She will also have a proper burial.
Why?
Why is it me who is punished?
I just wanted to help the King to remove a traitor.
It's all her fault.
That woman.
Her brother.
You must be happy now.
Let me go.
Let me see His Majesty.
Why don't you come, His Majesty?
I am still the same.
His Majesty.
Lady Bettany has passed away.
It's you. Please come in.
You can't escape this time.
Lady Bettany has been sentenced to death by suicide.
Oberstein, let him go.
That woman wants to kill you, sister.
Everyone has their sad stories...
and their pain.
I hope you can understand her feelings.
She was once highly favored...
but was gradually forgotten.
This sadness...
Sister.
The fading of the Reich Empire, Goldenbaum.
has corrupted her...
and resulted in many things.
But these things,
are usually secretly,
dealt with in the palace.
The next day.
The news that Lady Bettany has died of illness was announced.
