Berengar sat in his office with a stern expression on his handsome face, and a disturbing telegram in his hand. Arnulf von Thiersee, a man who had been by Berengar's side since he was first reincarnated into this world, had ordered his troops to commit the unthinkable: to open fire on German citizens.
