History
|
Klaus Windamier, the gifted son of Kiba Windamier, showed early admiration for his father, but his slender physique proved unsuitable for military life. Instead, he inherited the appearance and temperament of his mother, often choosing to immerse himself in solitary studies and rarely speaking unless neccessary.
At the age of 14, during a patrol with his father, Klaus faced taunts from a soldier about his perceived weakness compared to Kiba. In response, they dueled at night, and Klaus, recognizing his physical disadvantage, cleverly feigned an injury to one eye. Knocking a torch to the ground, he adapted to the darkness and overcame his opponent, revealing a talent for strategic thinking in battles.
Gifted with the Harmonian edition of "Chronicles of Harmonian Heroes" by his uncle Greg, Klaus learned about Soledt, a blind strategist absent from the Highland version of the book. Recognizing the pivotal role strategists played, he sought permission from his mother to enroll at the Soledt Academy in the Holy Kingdom of Harmonia.
Upon returning to Highland, Klaus assumed the role of tactician in the 3rd Royal Highland Company, serving under his father during the Dunan Unification War. Despite his youth, Klaus demonstrated a composed analysis of war situations and offered precise instructions to his troops, skillfully extrapolating the enemy's strategies.
He played a part in the attack on Two River City, attempting to secure the city's surrender through manipulation of internal tensions, and contributed to the capture of South Window Principality. Although talented, he fell short of Shu's mastery and was defeated when Highland forces aimed to seize the New State Army Headquarters, subsequently being taken prisoner by the New State Army.
Upon learning of King Agares Blight's demise, Klaus defected alongside his father and became a strategist for the New State Army. He led troops against Neclord in Tinto Principality, participated in the liberation of Greenhill City, and partook in an assault on Muse City.
When Kiba left to draw out Leon Silverberg's forces, Klaus knew that the mission was one his father would not return from. Despite this, he would not try and dissuade his father, respecting him as a warrior and feeling great pride in his determination to fight and die for their cause, a pride his father returned. Even after losing his father, Klaus remained devoted to serving the New State Army, refusing to show his pain.
Following the conclusion of the Dunan Unification War, Klaus chose to remain in the Dunan Republic for further military strategist training under Shu. When Shu retired from the position of Chancellor in 461, with Teresa Wisemail assuming the presidency, Klaus assumed the role of Chancellor of the Dunan Republic. He continued to consult Shu on national matters, even after his ascension to the position of Chancellor.
