Legends of Galactic Heroes - The Sleeping Dragon

Extra Chapter 1

"So... I'm guessing Siegfried won?" Asks Bismarck to Reinhard.

"Yes, he has. He's a good example of a capable commander." Reinhard responds.

"Say Reinhard, I do have one question for you." Bismarck says to the blond haired Admiral.

"What is it then?" Reinhard asks, Bismarck give him his question.

"Was it because of him and his mercy that spared that Alliance Captain's life? And what was his name... Lapp, I believe?"

This sent a massive body slam strait into his sternum and made his heart quiver from the question. He then answers, "yes I did. The reason why-" "there is no reason why. He is the yin to your yang. But for me that kindness will deteriorate sooner or later with one thing that's taboo with a rumor attached to it. The reason why I say that is because of this: a benevolent ruler sometimes have to dirty or wet their hands with blood to be able to gain power and live peacefully. Unless war comes to try and steal it away from them. Take these notes to heart Reinhard; they may be useful in the future."

Bismarck then stand and walks away whilst Reinhard watches him walk away in silence. He knows it well enough and that he's speaking the truth. He wants to kill the Kaiser to save not only his sister, but also the people under the Empire's rule. Because he will have to drench his hands in blood to lead a benevolent rule to the Galaxy.
