## Story

### The King of Fighters SuperNOVA

Belger Bernstein is the father of Rugal Bernstein, these come with recommend to manager, however, Belger kidnapping Banri Tada at the Akihabara Imagin High School. He come to his servant Sie Kensou, and his two bodyguards Ryuji Yamazaki and Billy Kane in Rugal's Fortress. Belger comes up with a plan to get revenge on the Kusanagi family by luring King of Fighters to a ruined temple, naming it Akihabara Imagin Battle Ground, in the way of the massive Comet Nirvana, which would destroy the school and kill everyone on it in the process. Belger chooses to use some desolate school because he desires to use Japan as his base of operation, and can not risk damaging it in the process. As part of his plan to deceive the Zanpakuto prince, Belger has Rugal capture the Minions as slaves after devastating their home school Imagin, forcing them to create a palace on the ground to make it look more convincing. Presumably, he also had Rugal transform into his Shikai: Mighty Imagin form when attacking the temple in order to further sell the act.

### Death

Belger kills one of his soldiers, Mole, when the latter says he is afraid after he discovered he' plan to let Roppongi Town destroy Akihabara Imagin Battle Ground. When Rugal makes contact with Ichigo, the former starts to slip out of Belger's control due to past trauma. With each successive control waning further, He' fears come to full when his plan is exposed to Kyo. Rugal loses all restraints when he breaks the crown and goes berserk, attacking Ichigo and the others. He changes his plans to have Rugal attack the Byakuya Team, but is horrified when Rugal is not responding to the crown anymore, immediately prior to Rugal's transformation into a Bankai: Titan Imagin. With that, Belger claims that his plans of ruling the universe with Rugal has come to an end. After witnessing the Imagin defeat at his now uncontrollable son, he attempts to escape the castle in his car, while expressing regret in regards to having to abandon Rugal to his fate. Unfortunately for him, Rugal approaches just as the door closes, and after ignoring Belger's desperate lie of preparing to seek shelter together, Rugal kills him by crushing the car and then throws it into the approaching town. Just before dying, Belger laments on the fate of a Shinigami being killed by his own child who, in all irony, once saved his life.
