Ikta succeeds in a daring plan to cross the Kioka border and return the princess home.  But this means he gets a reward, and his reward is the title of Imperial Knight.  Now he finds himself dragged into a war he hates, serving a government that doesn't want to win, and despising the princess he rescued.
That is no different than 
saving the Empire itself.
لا فرق بين هذا وإنقاذ الامبراطور بحدّ ذاته
Dies kommt der Rettung
des Reiches gleich.
Es lo mismo
que haber salvado al imperio.
Es lo mismo
que haber salvado al imperio.
C’est l’Empire lui-même
que vous avez protégé.
Facendo questo è come
 se aveste salvato l'Impero stesso.
É o mesmo que ter 
protegido o império.
Вы спасли саму Империю.
