Go ahead and sit down. 0:03:01.60,0:03:04.90,~ Would you prefer wine or coffee? 0:03:04.90,0:03:07.80,~ It would be better if we had some of my sister's cakes. 0:03:07.80,0:03:10.00,~ We mustn't expect too much at the front lines. 0:03:10.00,0:03:13.70,~ Lord Reinhart, we have to talk. 0:03:13.70,0:03:15.60,~ What about? 0:03:15.60,0:03:19.90,~ Planet Westerland, and the two million civilians who were slaughtered there. 0:03:19.90,0:03:23.00,~ What about it? 0:03:23.00,0:03:28.50,~ There are those who say you were aware of the plan, and allowed it anyway,... 0:03:28.50,0:03:30.80,~ for political reasons. 0:03:34.20,0:03:35.80,~ Is it true? 0:03:38.20,0:03:39.80,~ It's true. 0:03:46.10,0:03:52.30,~ Lord Reinhart, I thought there was a reason you wanted to control the Empire. 0:03:52.30,0:03:58.20,~ The Goldenbaum dynasty couldn't help being like it was, because that was it's nature. 0:03:58.20,0:04:00.60,~ That much is obvious. 0:04:00.60,0:04:05.50,~ The high nobles have paid the price for their 500 years of injustices. 0:04:05.50,0:04:10.40,~ In such historic events, it's inevitable that blood will be shed, I suppose. 0:04:10.40,0:04:14.00,~ But you can't sacrifice innocent lives. 0:04:14.00,0:04:17.10,~ Lord Reinhart, the new order you will establish must be based... 0:04:17.10,0:04:22.80,~ on liberating the citizens who have been unfairly oppressed for so long. 0:04:22.80,0:04:28.30,~ To use innocent people as sacrifices just undermines your own cause. 0:04:28.30,0:04:30.90,~ I told you - I know that. 0:04:32.70,0:04:35.50,~ The civil war has ended sooner than we expected. 0:04:35.50,0:04:38.90,~ As it turns out, our loses were few. 0:04:38.90,0:04:43.30,~ Strategically and politically, it was necessary. 0:04:43.30,0:04:45.30,~ Lord Reinhart! 0:04:45.30,0:04:48.70,~ If your opponents are the high nobles, it is a struggle among equals. 0:04:48.70,0:04:52.00,~ No matter what means you use, there is no shame. 0:04:52.00,0:04:54.80,~ But, if you sacrifice innocent people, your hands are stained with blood. 0:04:54.80,0:05:00.60,~ No matter how you try to justify it, you can't wash away that stain. 0:05:00.60,0:05:06.00,~ Lord Reinhart, of all people, why do you lower yourself for the sake of a temporary gain? 0:05:06.00,0:05:09.00,~ That's enough preaching! 0:05:10.40,0:05:16.10,~ Listen, Kircheis, I didn't ask for your opinion on this. 0:05:16.10,0:05:19.90,~ When I want your advice, I'll ask for it! 0:05:19.90,0:05:23.00,~ No, you didn't ask for it. 0:05:23.00,0:05:24.40,~ That's right. 0:05:24.40,0:05:27.50,~ You should offer advice only when I request it. 0:05:27.50,0:05:30.10,~ That's the end of it. 0:05:30.10,0:05:32.00,~ But, Lord Reinhart... 0:05:32.00,0:05:36.10,~ If you sacrifice civilians for mere political convenience,... 0:05:36.10,0:05:40.90,~ What's the difference between that and Rudolf von Goldenbaum!? 0:05:40.90,0:05:42.20,~ Kircheis! 0:05:42.20,0:05:43.00,~ Yes sir. 0:05:43.00,0:05:46.20,~ What are you to me? 0:05:48.60,0:05:54.30,~ I am Your Excellency's loyal subject, Marquis Lohengramm. 0:06:11.30,0:06:14.70,~ We mustn't waste any time in dealing with Westerland. 0:06:14.70,0:06:18.70,~ We'll have to dispatch a fleet immediately to prevent the attack. 0:06:18.70,0:06:20.20,~ One moment, Your Excellency. 0:06:20.20,0:06:25.50,~ We should allow the insane Braunschweig to carry out his brutal attack. 0:06:25.50,0:06:26.20,~ What? 0:06:26.20,0:06:31.00,~ That way, by recording the act, we demonstrate the brutality of the high nobles. 0:06:31.00,0:06:37.00,~ No doubt the citizens and common soldiers under their control will then abandon them. 0:06:37.00,0:06:40.00,~ That will help our cause more than preventing the attack. 0:06:40.00,0:06:43.10,~ You want me to leave Westerland to die? 0:06:43.10,0:06:49.90,~ If the nobles win this civil war, that kind of cruelty will be repeated many times. 0:06:49.90,0:06:52.20,~ By showing the whole Empire their true colors now,... 0:06:52.20,0:06:56.10,~ it will demonstrate they have no right to rule the universe. 0:06:56.10,0:07:00.50,~ But, there are 2 million people on Westerland! 0:07:00.50,0:07:02.80,~ Including women and children! 0:07:02.80,0:07:03.90,~ They... 0:07:03.90,0:07:06.80,~ Your Excellency, look at it logically. 0:07:06.80,0:07:09.10,~ If you're worried about 2 million lives,... 0:07:09.10,0:07:12.80,~ there will surely be far more casualties than that if this civil war drags on. 0:07:12.80,0:07:14.80,~ Please take that into consideration. 0:07:14.80,0:07:19.00,~ Human lives can't be calculated like that! 0:07:19.00,0:07:22.20,~ Your Excellency, you must become ruler first. 0:07:22.20,0:07:25.00,~ For the sake of a greater good in the future,... 0:07:25.00,0:07:28.80,~ there are times when rulers must accept the necessity of sacrifice. 0:07:28.80,0:07:31.70,~ Your Excellency, you must decide now. 0:07:31.70,0:07:35.10,~ Weigh the good of the 25 billion citizens of the Empire. 0:07:35.10,0:07:36.20,~ Your Excellency... 0:07:36.20,0:07:39.10,~ When will the attack on Westerland begin? 0:07:39.10,0:07:41.80,~ In about 6 hours. 0:07:41.80,0:07:43.60,~ Put the fleet on alert for immediate dispatch. 0:07:43.60,0:07:44.50,~ Your Excellency... 0:07:44.50,0:07:45.90,~ Don't misunderstand. 0:07:45.90,0:07:47.90,~ I'll wait to decide until the last possible moment. 0:07:47.90,0:07:50.00,~ Leave me until I call. 0:07:59.30,0:08:00.50,~ Kircheis... 0:08:00.50,0:08:03.30,~ When you're not here, I'm afraid you'll never forgive me. 0:08:03.30,0:08:06.80,~ Can this be the path we chose? 0:08:10.50,0:08:12.40,~ What's this...? 0:08:12.40,0:08:14.00,~ What does this mean? 0:08:14.00,0:08:16.70,~ It seems the enemy attack was earlier than we expected. 0:08:16.70,0:08:20.20,~ I'm sorry to report that the fleet you dispatched was not in time. 0:08:20.20,0:08:21.70,~ What? 0:08:21.70,0:08:23.40,~ Then where is this image coming from? 0:08:23.40,0:08:28.80,~ It's from the reconnaissance probe I sent out ahead as a precaution. 0:08:28.80,0:08:30.30,~ Oberstein...! 0:08:30.30,0:08:33.00,~ We will beam these images throughout the Empire. 0:08:33.00,0:08:38.60,~ Even a child will understand that righteousness is on our side. 0:08:38.60,0:08:43.20,~ The nobles have hung themselves. 0:08:43.20,0:08:45.70,~ What's the matter, Your Excellency? 0:08:45.70,0:08:49.70,~ It's true I didn't give an explicit order to intercept... 0:08:49.70,0:08:50.40,~ However... 0:08:50.40,0:08:53.50,~ Your Excellency did send a fleet to intercept the attack. 0:08:53.50,0:08:57.40,~ However, the enemy attack was too swift. 0:08:57.40,0:08:59.10,~ This is the result. 0:08:59.10,0:09:00.90,~ Damn you, you planned it. 0:09:00.90,0:09:04.90,~ There's no sense complaining about the deed after it is done. 0:09:04.90,0:09:08.10,~ We must make the most of the current situation. 0:09:08.10,0:09:12.00,~ We must do justice to the 2 million lives sacrificed. 0:09:14.30,0:09:18.70,~ Kircheis will just have to understand the need for dirty hands. 0:09:23.60,0:09:27.60,~ Sooner or later, Lord Reinhart will understand. 0:09:27.60,0:09:31.80,~ Won't he, Lady Annerose...? 0:09:33.40,0:09:37.40,~ Well, I'm looking forward to the day you come back home. 0:09:37.40,0:09:40.20,~ Auf Wiedersein. 0:09:43.60,0:09:46.90,~ Reinhart, how are... 0:09:46.90,0:09:53.20,~ Remember, never lose sight of the truly important things. 0:09:53.20,0:09:59.00,~ Although at times they may seem a distraction, rather than lose them and regret it later,... 0:09:59.00,0:10:02.70,~ I want you to realize the value of not losing them in the first place. 0:10:02.70,0:10:06.40,~ Whatever the problem, consult with Sieg and value his opinions. 0:10:06.40,0:10:08.10,~ So, it will be... 0:10:11.30,0:10:14.30,~ Whatever the problem, consult with Sieg... 0:10:14.90,0:10:17.70,~ Whatever the problem, consult with Sieg.... 0:10:22.30,0:10:28.10,~ My sister values Kircheis's judgment more than mine? 0:10:28.10,0:10:30.30,~ Perhaps so... 0:10:32.50,0:10:34.90,~ Your Excellency, it's Oberstein. 0:10:34.90,0:10:36.10,~ Come in. 0:10:39.70,0:10:41.80,~ You called...? 0:10:41.80,0:10:43.20,~ Look at this. 0:10:43.20,0:10:46.70,~ It's a message from Fraulein Mariendorf. 0:10:46.70,0:10:50.10,~ Marquis Lohengramm, the news of your victory... 0:10:51.20,0:10:56.80,~ The Imperial Prime Minister, His Excellency Prince Lichtenlade, while handling the affairs of state,... 0:10:56.80,0:11:01.30,~ is stirring up the emotions of the nobles who remained behind on Odin. 0:11:01.30,0:11:04.90,~ It appears he has some far-reaching ambition. 0:11:05.50,0:11:06.90,~ You see the problem? 0:11:06.90,0:11:11.70,~ Prince Lichtenlade has discovered the high nobles are now out of the way. 0:11:11.70,0:11:14.40,~ So now he thinks of us as a hindrance. 0:11:14.40,0:11:16.10,~ That's what it probably means. 0:11:16.10,0:11:18.20,~ Hmph. The old fox. 0:11:18.20,0:11:21.50,~ He's wasted no time stabbing me in the back. 0:11:21.50,0:11:25.80,~ Oberstein, as soon as tomorrow's victory celebration is over,... 0:11:25.80,0:11:28.40,~ you will return to Odin ahead of me. 0:11:28.40,0:11:30.50,~ Take steps against the enemy at our backs. 0:11:30.50,0:11:31.50,~ As you wish. 0:11:31.50,0:11:35.70,~ But there is another matter I wish to discuss... 0:11:35.70,0:11:36.70,~ What is it? 0:11:36.70,0:11:39.90,~ It's about High Admiral Kircheis. 0:11:39.90,0:11:43.60,~ Are you going to tell me again I entrust too much power to Kircheis? 0:11:43.60,0:11:45.20,~ I am. 0:11:45.20,0:11:49.40,~ It isn't wise to show him special treatment like you did before,... 0:11:49.40,0:11:52.20,~ especially in front of the other commanders. 0:11:52.20,0:11:56.80,~ I've told you before, Kircheis is the same as myself. 0:11:56.80,0:11:59.20,~ Even if the whole universe were my enemy,... 0:11:59.20,0:12:02.10,~ Kircheis would still be my friend. 0:12:02.10,0:12:04.40,~ In fact, it was that way for a long time. 0:12:04.40,0:12:06.90,~ Therefore, I have rewarded his loyalty. 0:12:06.90,0:12:08.70,~ What's wrong with that? 0:12:08.70,0:12:15.50,~ Your Excellency! I'm not suggesting you purge or banish Admiral Kircheis! 0:12:15.50,0:12:18.40,~ Just promote Reuental and Mittermeyer to the same rank. 0:12:18.40,0:12:23.50,~ All I'm saying is that you should treat your loyal subordinates well. 0:12:23.50,0:12:26.30,~ There is no room for a "Number 2" in your organization. 0:12:26.30,0:12:30.40,~ Your subordinates' loyalties are to you, and can't be transferred to another. 0:12:30.40,0:12:36.70,~ Your Excellency can't hope for a stable government if you do not wield complete authority. 0:12:36.70,0:12:39.20,~ All right. Enough. 0:12:39.20,0:12:41.00,~ Drop it. 0:12:46.10,0:12:48.00,~ Did you hear? 0:12:48.00,0:12:52.50,~ Lohengramm and Kircheis had some harsh words. 0:12:52.50,0:12:54.60,~ Do you think it's true? 0:12:54.60,0:12:55.90,~ It's a rumor. 0:12:55.90,0:12:58.60,~ Nevertheless, it's a dangerous rumor. 0:12:58.60,0:13:00.40,~ It's extremely dangerous. 0:13:00.40,0:13:02.60,~ Is there anything we should do? 0:13:02.60,0:13:07.60,~ If we meddle, we could spark a nasty backlash. 0:13:07.60,0:13:12.40,~ Besides, the Chief of Staff will probably put in a few uncalled-for words. 0:13:12.40,0:13:14.60,~ Oberstein? 0:13:14.60,0:13:17.60,~ He's a sharp guy, I admit. 0:13:17.60,0:13:21.80,~ But, I hate to cause a war on peaceful ground. 0:13:21.80,0:13:25.00,~ The usual "Number 2 is useless debate?" 0:13:25.00,0:13:27.10,~ There is some merit in that debate. 0:13:27.10,0:13:32.20,~ But he's trying to change a man who's done very well his own way so far. 0:13:32.20,0:13:35.50,~ That's not reasonable. 0:13:35.90,0:13:40.30,~ Human nature is not so easily changed. 0:13:40.30,0:13:42.40,~ I win. 0:13:42.40,0:13:46.50,~ Four Jacks.
