All language subtitles for LoGH018

In response to the new King
Erwin's ascendance to the throne,

that is aided by Lohengramm
and Lichtenlade.

The powerful aristocrats,

Braunschweig and Littenhelm...

are plotting secretly to
overthrow this decision.

Those who support the King, like
Lichtenlade and Count Lohengramm,

and those who oppose the King,
like Braunschweig and Littenhelm.

The tension between these
2 groups are rising.

What are they doing?

Even if Braunschweig
and Littenhelm co-operate,

they can't do much.

No matter what, this is due to
Lichtenlade, the King's supporter.

What?

I don't think it's because he
supports the King. Must be the brat.

Isn't he a war genius?

I heard his men are all talents.

You mean Count Lohengramm?

This is really
giving me a headache.

Who should we support?

Father,
what are you thinking about?

No, nothing.

You're right.

You said the fate of the
Galactic Empire,

doesn't affect the future
of the Mariendorf, right?

Then Father, have you decided?

I hope to sit on the fence.

If I can't...

I'm a subject of Braunschweig.

Then I'll have to...Father.

Ever since mankind
appeared on Earth,

there never was a country
that wouldn't be eliminated.

I think the Galactic Empire
is no exception.

Hilda, what are you trying to say?

The Goldenbaum has been
around for 500 years.

The majority of the people have
always been ruled by the

few aristocrats.
Hilda...hey...hilda...

The could do as
they like in the past.

But now it should come to an end.

You want me to
help Count Lohengramm?

That's right.

But...

Besides it's right to help
Count Lohengramm.

He's a supporter of the King.

Compared to him,

Braunschweig is
just an ambitious man,

who goes to war for
his own personal gains.

Besides, Braunschweig's group is
made up of aristocrats.

If we the Mariendorf Family
were to join them,

we probably wouldn't have a say.

To him, our participation has
political significance.

I believe Count Lohengramm will
welcome us.

Perhaps you're right.

So I hope Count Lohengramm
will win this war.

I understand.

Since you say so,
I'll leave this to you.

You're the successor of the
Mariendorf and your future is important.

I hope you'll do a good job.

No matter what happens in future,
Father won't regret.

Father.

You don't have to be too concerned
about the Mariendorf Family.

You can use the Mariendorf Family
as a springboard...

to your own future.

You should know this.

Thank you, Father.

Thank you for handing the fate of
Mariendorf Family to me.

And thank you for giving birth to
me in such a glorious time.

Miss Hilda.

Thank you for fetching me.

Please wait a while and
I'll be there shortly.

It's all right.
The flight was early.

I haven't gone back to the Empire
for a long time. How's everything?

Has your Lordship recovered?

He's fine and nothing has changed.

Sorry but I'd like to go somewhere
else first.

Aren't you going
back to your residence?

Where do you want to go?

I want to go to
Count Lohengramm's place.

Are the aristocrats nervous?

This is a rare comedy.

If the ending is not perfect,
it can't be a comedy.

As long as the aristocrats unite,
they'll be more powerful

than us in terms of
finance and military power.

So before they cool down,

we must agitate them.

Is the report out yet?

Yes.

Braunschweig met up with
Littenhelm and his cohorts,

under the excuse of a garden tour.

I think they're up to something.

Even though there are thousands
families of the aristocrats,

they are all useless.

Even if they become our enemies,
we'll win without a battle.

I'm the daughter of Franz von
Mariendorf, Hilda Mariendorf.

Field Marshal Lohengramm.

It's a pity Kircheis is not here.

He's connected to your family.

Do you know this?

Yes.

He saved my father from
the riot at Kathero.

He was here a while ago.

He missed you.

What do you want from me?

I came especially to
report to you.

The civil war this time.

We, the Mariendorf Family
will stand by you.

What civil war?

The war between you
and Braunschweig.

You're too frank.

Even if that's true, it doesn't
mean I'll surely win.

Why do you want to stand by me?

You'll win.

Oh...?

Braunschweig and Littenhelm has...

united only for the time being.

They're not sincere towards
helping each other.

No matter what, the fact that the
command system is not unified,

is a weakness.

Even if their military power
is greater than yours,

I don't think they're your match.

Besides, these aristocrats
can't fight.

As those who go to
war are soldiers.

You think the people and soldiers

will support you or Braunschweig?

Isn't the answer obvious?

You're indeed wise beyond
your years.

Then, you can join us.

Besides the Mariendorf Family,

I'll treat any aristocrat
that supports me well.

I'll do my best to persuade
my friends...

to help you, Marshal.

I won't be too complacent
due to your support.

Anything I can do for you,

just tell me.

Don't stand on ceremony with me.
all right?

If you say so, I need your help.

Please say.

It's a small matter.

Please give me
a letter of assurance,

that'll secure the safety of the
Mariendorf and the Empire.

You want me to send out a notice?

All right.
I'll give it to you today.

Thank you.

I swear on the behalf of
the Mariendorf Family,

no matter what happens,
I'll serve you loyally.

I hope you can do it.

But Miss Hilda,

I'm curious.

Do you want me
give the same promise...

to the aristocrats you
intend to persuade?

That depends on whether
they need it.

If you were to do the same
for everyone,

I think it's too troublesome
for you.

I'm sorry.

I'm surprised at your wisdom,
Hilda.

Excuse me,

those aristocrats have
begun to act.

Hilda, I'm pleased to meet you.

Let's get together for
dinner next time.

Goodbye.
Those who can't

stand the arrogance
of Count Lohengramm...

and Marquis Lichtenlade,

have gathered secretly at
Braunschweig's villa...

for a secret conference.

This is the treaty of Lippstaddt.

The aristocrats' army shall be
known as the 'Lippstaddt Army'.

The leader is Braunschweig and
the assistant is Littenhelm.

There're 3760 aristocrats
who joined.

There're 25.6 million
soldiers in all.

The Commander...

is Merkatz.

Merkatz is the Commander?

It's not good.

Isn't he a well respected
and experienced soldier?

So that's why.

No one would listen to
Braunschweig,

if he were to lead.

It's going to be a mess
even if Merkatz lead.

There's no need to be afraid.

A lion leading a pack of sheep,

can chase away a sheep leading
a pack of lions.

Don't be too assured.
We must be careful.

I thought Merkatz admired you.

This is beyond what I expect.

Is it Merkatz?

I may have rejected it before.

Such wars will only
result in casualties.

I don't intend to defend Count
Lohengramm or Braunschweig.

What did you say?

I'm surprised you'll say this.

How can you express your
loyalty to the King?

This can't be considered as
betraying the King.

This is only temporary.

Our aim is to save the King,

from Count Lohengramm and
Lichtenlade.

Our aim is to revive
the traditional rule...

and to protect Goldenbaum's
sacred mission.

This is a mission given by God.

God Odin will protect us.

You'll wait and see.
Righteousness is on our side.

No matter what you say...

Can't you agree with me?

Commander... no...

These young aristocrats
are very temperamental.

Those who refuse to help them or
stand on their side,

will be destroyed.

I've tried to persuade them
but failed.

I think you should be prepared
to shed some blood.

If this thing becomes a bloodshed,

this is a good offering
to our God Odin.

They usually sacrifice
a girl in the past.

Don't you have a daughter?

I'd like to know your decision.

Are you prepared to repay
your favor to the King?

This is your good chance.

If you don't mind,
I'm willing to do this.

But I want you to tell everyone.

Firstly, you've given me full
control over this battle.

Secondly, we'll deal severely with
those who disobey orders,

regardless of rank or reason.

Just these two issues.
I hope you can do it.

How is it?

Have you told
Braunschweig clearly?

If so, I'd like to
lead the troops.

This should be the
responsibility of a militant.

Schneder, you're still young.

Braunschweig has accepted
my conditions.

But I think he'll soon intervene.

And he won't obey military laws.

He'll probably hate me more
than Count Lohengramm.

Will he?

Special privileges will cause
one to become corrupted.

It's in their character to
think they're right.

And push the blame to others.

I didn't know this before I came...

into contact with those soldiers.

Admiral.

Captain, can you go to my house
on my behalf?

Just command me, Admiral.

Help me say goodbye to them.

I don't think it's necessary
to attack face to face.

I just want to defeat
Count Lohengramm.

You mean you want to
assassinate him?

Yes, if you give me 300 soldiers.

I believe I'll succeed.

What are you saying?

You think I can't defeat him?

No, what I meant...

if this war divides the Empire,

It's ok for Count Lohengramm
as he wants to find...

a chance to survive in
this confusion.

You have a duty to maintain
the current situation.

You can't just win.

Don't act smart.

I must tell you Count Lohengramm
is a genius in warfare.

Franz is right.

You must pay a high
price even if you win.

You'll also bring great
suffering to the people.

What is the aim of war?

One who has no confidence
of winning is useless.

Ansbach.

Have you made
preparations to escape?

Yes.
Good.

Don't think too much.
Just go and help Ansbach.

Ansbach.

Can you suggest to
Count Lohengramm again?

Arthur von Streit
Braunschweig thinks

we must attack from the front of
Lohengramm's army.

Then it's meaningful.

This is the time to show off...

to Lichtenlade and the rest.

Even if I suggest to him,

he won't accept it.

It's useless even if
I say it again.

Does he think it's despicable
to assassinate him?

I don't think it's only this
in the next war.

We just have to do our best.

Gather all the soldiers.
Yes.

We've to either kill Count
Lohengramm...

or take his sister Annerose
as hostage.

Everyone just remember this.
Yes.

Let's go.

Oh no!
We've been discovered.

Captain. We've no
choice but to retreat.

It has begun.

Reinhard.

Don't worry, Sister.

Kircheis will ensure
the safety of the palace.

You don't have to worry.

I must rush back now.

Sister, you must take care.

I must go now.

What's happening?

It seems like Franz has decided
to act alone.

What?

How dare he?

There's no way now.

We must leave Odin.

Isn't there another way?

Count Lohengramm,

and his men did not fall for this.

What should we do now?

How's it now?

We'll act as planned.

The Ministry of Military Affairs.

That's really rude.

I don't know what you're here for.

Don't you have any manners?

I'm sorry.

I think you need to accept
this reality.

New Sanssouci Palace

Fire Dragon

Are you Arthur von Streit?

to assassinate me?

Is this true?

That's right.

If Braunschweig accepted
my suggestion,

it should be you in cuffs now.

I feel really sad.

How can you suggest something
like this?

I think it's better not to
waste our resources...

and cause casualties.

It's better to ruin
my reputation for once.

It seems like you're not scared
of death at all.

I'll give you a permit
and let you return

and continue to serve the Lord.

Please let me remain in Odin.

Don't you want to return?

If I return,

he'll be
suspicious why you let me go.

Braunschweig...

never trusts his men.

I see.

Join me then.

Thank you.

But there's no way I can go
against my ex-superior.

Please forgive me.

All right.

It's up to you.

Commander Wahlen.

Some troops ignored our warning
and tried to escape.

What?

Attack!

But don't hit it first.

I'm the ex-subject of
Braunschweig.

Captain Franz.

Ex-subject?

Yes, from now on.

If I've the chance,

I hope to become your subject.

I wonder what happened to
your loyalty?

It's everchanging.

Loyalty is given only those who
appreciates it.

Being loyal to a superior who
doesn't know how to make

use of his men,
is like throwing a jewel into mud.

Isn't it a loss to society?

What a shameless man.

Oberstein.

Yes.

I'll give this man to you.

Yes.

There's a ship trying to cover up
as a commercial vessel.

What?

This is despicable.

Commander.

There's no other way.

Stop all attacks.

The Ministry and HQ have done
their best.

But too bad...

Braunschweig and Littenhelm
have escaped.

Thank goodness 625 out of...

3760 aristocrats
have been captured.

This is satisfactory.

I think after
Braunschweig escaped,

he may use several Fortresses
as his bases...

and start a new war.

Where do you think they will pick?

They may choose
Geltsburg Fortress.

Geltsburg Fortress.

Oberstein was right.

Lippstaddt's army has gathered
at Geltsburg Fortress.

Field Marshal Lohengramm has to...

command 3 troops.

The King promoted him
as the Highest Commander.

He was also told to destroy
the Lippstaddt Army.

What title?

Right, there's no official title
for them on the document.

I thought of a good name.

Call them the traitors.

You said traitors?

Right, let all of them know
they are known...

as traitors.

Yes.

Set off now.

Head for Geltsburg Fortress.

Yes.

797 Galaxy years.
488 Empire years.

6th April Galaxy time.

The biggest civil war that
divides the Empire,

has begun.

This is also the beginning
of a tragedy.
