We know that Claus continued to fight after Olivie's death, but again, who was he fighting anyways?

Of course, we could just go with the unstated but plausible answer:

Would it reinforce why Claus died so miserably? Sure, but I am skeptical if Tsuzuki has actually thought about that part of a legacy.

Or if he's ever read into the enormous hissy opinions fight between historians over every notable war, conflict, bushfire, and slapping that ever was, and realize that academics can get really worked up about their subject.
