Galaxy Year 801 New Empire Year 3, 1st June
The news of the peace agreement has reached lserlohn.
Thousands of soldiers there were overjoyed.
But when the list of the dead
includes Willibald Joachim von Merkatz
Walter von Schenkopp and Louis Mashengo,
came upon them...
the atmosphere turns solemn.
Especially the Rosen Ritters,
who had only 204 survivors who were all injured,
and who have to live to face the tragedy.
Schenkopp
is dead...
From the Commander...
Julian, you are so bad.
If Commander Yang was still alive,
he'll give you a good scolding.
This is Frederica's way of thanking him
for risking his life at the war after
they decided to stay at lserlohn.
I'm sorry.
Julian understands Frederica.
and a short response was given.
What's next on your list?
Tell me.
I want to go to Heinessen
with the remains of my army, the Empire army.
I think I may see the Emperor there.
I'll raise my suggestions then.
What's that?
I'll give lserlohn to them in exchange
for self-governance in Heinessen.
I hope the Empire will make laws,
set up the parliament and
advance on the right track.
But this is easier said than done.
It takes a lot of years to achieve.
If so, then he can return to Heinessen.
Frederica uses this to express agreement to Julian's policy.
Iserlohn is extremely hard to seize.
Thor Hammer and the other powerful weapons have
made the Empire Army very cautious about matters.
From now on, we shall use diplomatic
means rather than military means to protect ourselves.
We shall try to live in harmony with the Empire.
Vice admiral Caselnes, it's time...
for us to say goodbye to lserlohn.
I'll leave the matters to you then?
Yes, Mrs Yang.
I'll make the perfect arrangement,
and leave the Empire army no chance to criticize us.
Thank you.
Mrs Yang,
my wife has asked me to
invite you to my house for dinner.
You may feel disturbed,
but it's horrible to defy my wife.
So I hope you'll accept the invitation.
Thank you for inviting me.
I'll go and enjoy the great food.
I have to bide farewell to this room.
Thank you, hubby.
Thank you for enriching my life.
Ulysess survived.
It's extremely fortunate.
But it has been functioning more like a hospital recently.
I want to die but I can't.
I can just imagine Schenkopp, surrounded by a bunch of
female ghosts. I'll not want to die.
It'll be so troublesome.
Since it is so... Iive longer then.
Conquer this world.
The world is yours now that
the bad boy, Schenkopp, is dead.
Oliver Poplan,
born on the 36th of the fifteenth month, in Galaxy Year 771,
died on the 1st of June, Galaxy Year 801.
He drowned in the sea of tears from beautiful girls
at the age of 29.
I even got my epitaph prepared.
A pity it didn't come in handy.
I remember you've just had your birthday this year.
You should be thirty, right?
Why are you so annoying?
Even if I'm really 30,
what is it to you?
Why do you have to be so blunt?
If I'm happy only because of the benefits,
then I've turn into the materialistic merchants of Phezzan.
But seriously,
where's is our Commander?
He must have gone to console the poor
girl who is upset over the lost of her father.
My love...
Do you love me?
Yes, I love you...
till the end of my life...
When the Goddess of Spring rings the bell,
trees and flowers go to sleep.
Even the sun is at rest.
Even so, when spring comes,
all the birds will come back.
Even so, when spring comes,
all the birds will come back.
Kaitlin,
my Mum likes this song.
She said that she often sang this to Schenkopp.
After she split up with him, she sang it to herself.
Kaitlin, Vice admiral Schenkopp...
I know...
What's that?
He always manages to come back to life after dying for five or
six times how did he die this time?
I'm looking for chance to exact revenge on him.
Revenge?
Yes.
One day I'll bring my son to him and say:
He's your grandson, Grandfather.
I have always wanted to say this to him.
I think this is the best form of
revenge on the bad guy.
Father.
Father...
Sorry, I dirtied your clothes.
It doesn't matter.
Do you like me?
If you do, please say so.
Do not just move your head. You have to say it.
I like you.
Democracy is so great.
Why? To think a lowly soldier
Iike me can actually order a Lieutenant around.
It is unimaginable under the rule of the Empire.
When they get married in future,
the 1st of June will become an unforgettable day.
This is the day their father passed away.
You have a lipstick mark to the right corner of your lips.
So, the ceremony is finally over and done with.
Good, good.
You're bad, Vice admiral.
Don't you know your girlfriend wears lipstick or not?
I'll know in future.
So, have you decided when you want to see the Emperor?
Not yet.
At least after his health
gets better.
I see...
But who can guarantee that he'll get better.
I heard it's incurable.
You should speak in a more responsible manner.
I will.
In other words, you're saying that
humans or groups of human...
have to sacrifice lives...
to find a way to communicate?
Don't you think it's stupid?
Who knows? I've no right to pass any comments.
I have caused the death of some
due to my hot-headedness.
Maybe I'm really stupid.
But when we overcome stupidity,
have we really completed evolution?
The lserlohn army used different
methods to commemorate the dead.
Though the Empire
did not lose any admirals,
they are stricken by another tragedy.
Their leader, Emperor Reinhard has been
Why?
Why didn't Oberstein die?
Why should His Majesty die?
There is no justice in this Universe!
The God of Odin isn't doing anything!
Enough, Wittenfeld.
I have not said enough!
I have reasons to stop you.
Firstly, His Majesty is sick,
but this doesn't mean he's dying.
If a first-class admiral is
so hot-headed,
it is a bad influence on soldiers.
Secondly, think about the Empress and the Prince.
They must be in deeper sorrows than you.
Can you understand this?
I understand. I've no arguments against that.
I just didn't think it over. But in his heart,
Mittermeier envies Wittenfeld's straightforwardness.
He has to suppress his urge to curse the God for being unfair.
This sorrow tortures him.
Kircheis, Reuentahl,
Kempf, Lennekanpt,
Farenheit, Steinmetz and Lutz,
please, please don't take
His Majesty with you. We need him.
Your Majesty.
His Majesty, Reinhard.
Wait a moment.
Your Majesty.
That's...
Your Majesty, Your Majesty.
Don't we have a way to
beat the wills of Heaven...
1st of June.
Julian arrives at Heinessen.
After he went to Earth to attend Yang's wedding,
it has been two years since he last said this to his homeland.
Heinessen has changed.
Either that, or my way of seeing things has changed.
At least two years ago,
the capital of half the Universe was here.
Now it's only a peripheral planet.
Everyone's spirits is so low.
I think they are resigned to fate.
Freedom, independence, discipline and confidence.
Where are all the values
advocated by Heinessen?
With deep doubts in mind,
Julian visits Murai in the hospital.
So you'll give up lserlohn?
I think so.
And I'll talk to the Emperor.
I'll make it the prize for exchange.
I don't have any other ways.
So an era is coming to its end.
Though it's not significant,
the so-called lserlohn Era
was once in existence.
To me, it's the place I last worked.
To you, I hope it marks the start of a new era.
On the same day,
Julian gets to talk to Wahlen,
the first-class admiral, about the pros of the lserlohn army.
I remember seeing you somewhere.
Have I remembered wrongly?
No, you didn't.
We met on Earth.
Oh, I remember now.
Sorry for deceiving you then
and concealing my true identity.
It's alright. You do not need to apologise.
To each his own.
Am I right?
But both of us have lost many dear friends.
What Wahlen said makes Julian sad.
This feeling became more obvious when he was talking to Muller.
Mr Mintz,
who do you think is happier? You or me?
When Marshal Yang died,
no one knew his end was near.
But we're given the time to get
mentally prepared for His Majesty's death. Your sorrows
start from the beginning, we see the other end first.
Then we get to set off towards the end to satisfy the thirst in
our heart. Those who are alive,
those who are alive have to carry on
Iiving until the day they die.
They are not allowed to fast forward the days.
They have to wait until that day comes.
Although this may be the case,
but to exchange feelings with admirals
of the Empire is a good experience.
Except that this may induce criticism from future generations.
They'll think I shook hands with the murderers of our people.
Never mind the future generation.
It's alright if
they are the relatives of the dead.
We had no other choice.
We fought for what we have today.
What are you doing, Sir?
Calculating the gains.
Calculating the gains? What's that?
The gains from providing information
to the people at lserlohn.
Are you charging them?
Of course I am.
If I provide free service, they should feel ashamed.
Is that so?
At least I feel bad about this.
I'm different from them.
I'm not one who risk lives
without consideration.
Yes.
I've made up my mind, Marina.
If the people at lserlohn want to win this game,
I'll sell them the information.
I'm a merchant of the new era.
Alright, no matter what I do,
earn credit for selling the good products and expand the business.
What are you saying?
Alright, I'll go and see those people from lserlohn later.
What? They are not in?
How is our super businessman,
the most capable merchant in Phezzan?
Dying.
What?
From my informant in the hospital,
he's got brain cancer and has
Iess than one year to live.
When His Majesty reaches Heinessen,
he has to stop to eat.
Now it's only a matter of time.
Has to stop to eat?
This doesn't sound like him at all.
He's one who will live on even if he has to rob others of their food.
You are right.
But one faces Death,
his attitude will change.
It's played so badly.
You are so proud. Want to play?
Why not?
It's the night of 13th of June.
Help! Doctor, Doctor!
His heart has stopped beating.
Set the power to 200 watts.
Electrical power of 200 watts.
Three, two, one.
Yes,
Rubinsky unplugged the life-supporting system himself.
Yes, yes, I see.
Emergency, yes.
Alright, please wait for a while.
He's dead.
Oh, he's dead.
The Universe shall have some peace now.
Go and gather information on Rubinsky.
What's wrong?
Rubinsky's brain stopped functioning
when he was 24.
At about the same time somewhere else...
No, it's not an earthquake.
Rather it's some underground explosions in Heinessen
set up by humans.
This has been proven later.
Rubinsky has installed in his skull, an explosive controlling
system which has a lower frequency than that of brain waves.
When he died, all
the bombs buried underground exploded.
He committed suicide while
His Majesty was still in Heinessen.
He wants to take His Majesty with him.
Run!
Stop the fire! Quick!
Quick!
Excuse me, Your Majesty.
The fire is spreading here.
It's too dangerous. Please leave, Your Majesty.
If it's fated that I should die here,
I shall rest my soul here.
I hate to run around like refugees.
What are you saying?
The Empress and the Prince
are waiting for you in Phezzan.
It is my duty
to bring you back safe and sound.
Forgive me.
Reinhard was thus saved from the danger.
About this incidence,
the artistic Commander Mecklinger wrote...
He said it's all Wittenfeld's effort for
saving His Majesty.
Partially because he's not interested in art at all,
he can deal with
the situation more efficiently.
If he has the safety of the art
pieces on his mind,
it'll be too late.
So they are very lucky.
Though this sounds like a compliment for Wittenfeld,
it also criticises him for not
having an interest in art.
He has caused so many precious art pieces to be burnt.
But, on that night of the fire, it was not only the artworks that
were burnt. The fire continued for three whole days.
When it was finally in control,
30% of the city was burnt.
The number of deaths exceeded 5000.
The number of casualties was 500 times.
It is Oberstein's police who found out about the
connection between the explosions and the death of Rubinsky.
To investigate this,
Oberstein used the records of the Defense Ministry.
He mobilized the secret police to investigate all the suspects.
One of the suspects is
Rubinsky's mistress,
Dominique St Pierre.
I see.
This incidence is Rubinsky's 'gift' to His Majesty.
It should not be his wish
to challenge the Empire
But, I don't sympathies with him,
for he won't be happy to be sympathized with.
Do you know this woman, Elfriede Kohlrausch?
Do you?
No, I don't.
You don't know?
Oberstein does not question further.
Dominique is under arrest for two months.
She is being investigated
but will not be prosecuted.
She'll have to leave after she is released.
The official meeting between Julian
and His Majesty is scheduled on the afternoon of 20th of June.
I heard you are 19?
You're right, Your Majesty.
When I was 19,
I was only a admiral of Goldenbaum and
I didn't carry the Lohengramm surname.
I could do everything.
I dreamt of conquering the whole Universe with my friend.
Your dreams have been realized, Your Majesty.
When I first saw you,
I felt you were very daring.
You said you've good suggestions for the Empire, didn't you?
I am giving you a chance
to prove yourself now.
So, what suggestions do you have
to protect the Empire from bad causes?
For starters, please set up a constitution,
then a parliament.
These are the exterior plans.
That's the exterior plan for democracy,
we'll have to fill up the interior.
What is it about?
It takes a long time to gather people who are
capable of working for democracy.
It takes an even longer time for them
to run everything smoothly.
The Emperor doesn't have much time!
I think your ultimate purpose,
is to want to practice democracy in...
the Empire, right?
If this is the case,
democracy will replace the Empire.
I'm going back to Phezzan.
There are people waiting for me there.
I have seen the value of my last journey.
Come to Phezzan with me.
Is it true, Your Majesty?
I think it's better this way.
You should talk to the next leader,
not me.
My Empress has better judgment than me in politics.
You should discuss the details with her.
To Emperor Reinhard.
It's the first time he praised the
Empress this way, Julian thinks.
Reinhard is exhausted on the day of the meeting...
as it lasted for 30 minutes.
Julian left without achieving his goals.
Flag of the Golden Lion!
The conqueror of the Universe,
why are you so weak?
Something will happen in his last days.
Things will not finish so quietly.
It is more of a hope than a forecast.
I'll go with Julian to Phezzan.
Then I can see what's going to happen.
What about the army?
I'll leave it to Soun.
He may not be as creative as me,
but he's at least 1. 6 times more responsible than me.
I'll ask Olle to assist him.
Are you staying here?
I don't want to. I hate to stay at home.
I heard Murai is going to live
a relaxed lifestyle.
But we cannot do that.
I'll stay with Julian
until my theatre makes profits.
Julian is saying his goodbyes to Schneider.
So you are going to see
the descendants of admiral Merkatz?
You are right.
Admiral Merkatz has finished his journey,
I'll have to tell his descendants.
Then my journey will come to an end.
Will we see each other again?
We will. Goodbye for now.
If both of them lives on,
they'll see each other again.
Julian prays from the bottom of his heart
that Schneider's journey will be very meaningful.
Galaxy Year 801 New Empire Year 3, 27th June,
Empress Reinhard leaves
Heinessen on the Brunehild...
for the new capital, Phezzan.
To Reinhard, this could possibly be his last journey.
