Fleet admiral Wolfgang Mittermeyer Woke up early in the morning. Smell of food was spreading trough the room.

- ''Eva must be cooking breakfast'' he thought.''

Despite the smell of food his expression remained sad. Yesterday he and Eva saw Kaiser Reinhard die. But he did not just lose his Kaiser. He has lost his best friend. This feeling was way too familiar. This is how he felt after Oscar died, but he did not think that he would have to go trough it again.

Wolfgang and Kaiser have gotten closer over the years and since they both lost their best friends they became each others best friends.
Kaiser even forbade Mittermayer to die before him so doesn't have to go trough a loss of his best friend again (loosing Kircheis was already bad enough).

A baby's cry from the room next door cheered him up a little bit. It was his soon Felix. Well not biologically but despite this he still loved him as his own.
Especially since child's biological father was his late friend Oscar von Reuental. Then he remembered how he Eva and Felix where witnessed Kaiser Reinhard's last moments. He remembered Reinhard's last wish, how he wanted his and Mittermayer's son's to be friends.

-'' This is what Reinhard was fighting for. This why he died. To ensure bright and peaceful future for his and Mittermayer's children. So they can bee happy, bee good friends and above all else not loose each other in the horrors of war. This is what he wanted for all of the children of the empire. This is why galaxy must remain united.''

And with this positive thought he left the bedroom and saw his wife feeding Felix

- '' You are awake'' Eva said '' I have prepared breakfast''

Wolfgang then kissed his wife and started to eat. After he finished he asked her:

- ''Did any one visited us while I was asleep?''

- '' Yes one soldier arrived and gave me this letter. He told me to give it to you when you wake up.''

Mittermayer took the letter and quickly red it and said to his wife

- ''It looks like empress Hilda von Loengram wants to see me.''

- '' Then you better get going. I have ironed your uniform it is in the other room.''

Mittermayer just smiled. He knew that he had the best wife in the universe. Eva smiled back at him. She loved her husband and was always worried when he went to war but now that Galaxy was united under one ruler there would be no more wars. For this reason she felt grateful towards former Kaiser Reinhard.
This is the first time that she was saying fair well to her husband without worrying if he will return.

Mittermayer then came back from the other room wearing his uniform. Eva was waiting for him to return holding his red fleet admirals cape. He put it on and kissed her for goodbye.

- ''I love you'' he told her

- '' I know. I love you too'' she answered '' I will be waiting for you.''

And with that Mittermayer left his house and went to meet empress Hilda.

It was just like when she was waiting for him to return from the Ragnarok campaign. Only this time the mood was a lot better because she knew that he would return alive. And that she wont need to wait long for him this time.
