The World of Otome Games is Tough For Mobs-Volume 6, Chapter 9 - Conquest Target vs Conquest Target

It happened inside the big airship. Louise was hugging herself in despair.

"Why can't you just leave me alone? All I want to do is be with my brother.”

Leon got on board. She didn't expect him to do that.

The maids in Louise's care held their weapons while scared. Then the door opened and Serge appeared.

The maids seemed relieved to see him, but from Louise's point of view, a face appeared that she didn't want to see.

-What do you want? I don't even want to see your face, so go away."I didn’t come because you were lonely. I’m here to protect you.”

" You’re going to protect me?"

Serge said he was going to protect her, and she thought there was something fishy about that. Then Serge gave an ugly smile.

"I'm going to smash a guy who looks like your brother in front of you. I thought it would be fun.”

Louise was horrified to imagine the scene of Leon being defeated."You're such an idiot. That's why I hate you.”

The expression disappeared from Serge's face.

-I see. Well, I do not care. Their goal is you. I'll wait for him here.

“What about everyone else?"

She wanted someone more human instead of him, but everyone else was out except Serge.

"They went to greet the guys who came in with their bare hands." Well, I'll let the weak take care of them.

Louise looked at Serge, who was relaxing in his chair, and was concerned for Leon's well-being.

Leon, I'm begging you, please don't take too much risk. I'm begging you, please don't do anything dangerous.

◇

"Ah, you are …!" "H-Hiiiiiii!"

When I pushed back the attackers, I recognized the only soldier in the place. He was the man that boarded Einhorn when I first came to the Republic.

He had seen me as inferior and mocked me at the time.

I would hit a man like that with a rubber bullet, and then I would walk over to where he is rolling and trample him.

-I've missed you. I just wanted to thank you for that time !! "N-Noooo! Someone help me!”

-What happened? Before you were a captain, and now you are a lieutenant? I wonder why they demoted you! ?Tell me ?

When I pointed the gun at him, he started foaming at the mouth and passed out.

"I was just beginning."

Well OK. I'm busy. I do not have time for this.

I was muttering to myself, but normally this is where Luxon would hang on to tell me, [So why did you threaten him? It's a waste of time].

Damn! Without that guy's sarcasm, I feel strangely lonely."Well, I have to find Louise, but I wonder if the others are okay." Although they are the type of people who would not die.

Will the five idiots I walked in with be alright… right?

◇

?Gaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

Greg, with his machine gun at hand, began to fight bravely. A series of bullets were fired over his shoulder.

The way he defeated the Republican knights and soldiers who attacked him was completely reliable.

However, Jilk had a very cold look in his eyes.

They met and worked together, but Greg was almost naked."Greg, aren't you ashamed of the way you're dressed?"

Jilk had a scoped sniper rifle, and several times, because of Greg stepping forward, he could see his butt.

He couldn't help but want to pull the trigger."I'm sorry, my friend. I am a little embarrassed.” "Then put some clothes on, please."

Jilk was almost relieved that Greg had some common sense left. But it was too early for him to think that way.

"I don't have enough muscle in my back, it’s embarrassing.” Jilk was speechless.

Does this guy don't mind being naked and is ashamed of having little muscle on his back? Is he really that stupid !?

Jilk looked up at the sky and then thought of the others who weren't there.

At least Chris is … no. Chris and you are far from decent. I wish I could have worked with His Highness, "why did I have to go through this?"

Greg tried to advance now that the enemy was gone.

"Hey, Jilk." How long are you going to be looking up? Concentrate. We are in a war zone. I swear, this is why people without common sense are not good at this.

Jilk put his finger on the trigger of the gun. Can I please shoot this guy in the back?

◇

By the time that happened, Chris had joined Brad.

Wielding a wooden sword and clad in loincloths, he struck out one enemy after another. An enemy soldier screamed.

"Ugh! Despite being dressed like a freak, he is strong!” "I’m not a freak!"

Chris, whose loincloth was mocked, brandished his wooden sword and knocked out the enemy soldier.

At that moment, Brad was moving slowly from behind.

Behind them, a group of people with conspicuous armed units, rushed towards the group.

When the Republic soldiers saw this, they retreated, as if they thought they couldn't win.

"There are too many of them! Call for backup!” "Are they the main army ?!”

-Dammit! Damn barbarians of the kingdom! Brad sighed as he watched his enemies flee.

At that moment, the soldiers visible behind him disappeared.

"Those guys are impatient. We’ve only just started! Chris, thank you for your hard work.”

Chris swung the wooden sword at Brad, who looked like it was all simple, and hit him on the head.

"Ouch!" What are you doing!?

"Don't make me fight alone, why don't you fight on your own?" Brad shook his head, saying, "You don't get it ~!"

"The main character is supposed to be slow to appear."

-… Were you the main character? No matter how you think about it, the main character is Baltfault. He's the one who said he was going to come in, and the person he's going to help is someone he knows. Brad, I can only see you as a minor character.”

Brad, who was treated as a supporting character by Chris, pulled on his cheeks.

"I-I'm the main character in my story. That is why I will always be the protagonist.”

"Well that's all good. Hey, let's move on quickly. If the enemy returns with reinforcements, we will be in trouble.”

"Oh wait a minute!"

Brad chased Chris as they went.

◇

"Ugh! I can't believe I'm the only one left to watch the ship.”

The one who spoke was Julian, who was guarding Einhorn and complaining in the cockpit of his armed unit.

Everyone else had left the ship, but he was the only one left in the rear. He was frustrated because he wanted to fight with everyone else.

?"Julian, be careful!"

From the Einhorn Bridge, Marie called Julian.

The others inside the ship were Anjelica, Olivia and Noelle.

Kyle and Cara were on board too, the same usual faces were there.

-… Fuh, if you think you have been given the important role to protect Marie, don't regret it.

Julian would have complained earlier, but now he was motivated."Has the enemy come here?"

Towards Einhorn came a unit armed with the emblem of House Barriere. The other soldiers with an armed unit also tried to enter Einhorn.

"I won't let them pass!"

Julian fired a warning shot, stopping the soldiers and the enemy's armed units that pounced on them.

Julian's armed unit drew their sword into the air.

He attacked the legs of the approaching enemy armed units and cut them easily. The enemy lost his balance and Julian stopped when he defeated him.

"What strength. That Baltfault guy, did he have that much power?”

Julian, who had already dueled with Leon, was terrified to learn that he had been fighting in such powerful armor.

At the same time, he had mixed feelings when he realized that Leon was holding back.

It's annoying, although being clumsy, he was very careful not to take our lives. It was funny to think that cheeky Leon was looking out for them.

"If I borrow this armed unit and cannot fulfill my duties, Baltfault will laugh at me." I really wouldn't like that.

Julian ignited his spirit as he imagined how Leon would tease him.

The shout of the soldiers was heard as he cut the arm of another armed unit that was coming towards him and put him out of action.

"Come attack me who wants to die!"

Then another machine … an armed unit came out.

?"Well then I'll be your opponent." It was Loic's voice.

He attacked Julian.

Seeing this, Julian dodged as fast as he could."Is this guy going to give up his life !?

There was nothing to fear from Loic's attack, but the problem was that he was throwing his life away.

He was a troublesome opponent for Julian and the others, who were willing to lay down their lives and had a policy of not taking the lives of their enemies as much as possible. Loic was desperate.

?“I've heard your voice before. You are the prince of the Kingdom, right? "

-What’s it to you?

?"Nothing … I just asked. If you want Louise, you'll have to kill me first! " "Tsk!"

It would be easy to knock him down, but if he made a bad move, Loic would die.

Because of that, Julian was forced to have a tough battle

◇

On board another ship.

Hugh, who was leading the knights and soldiers of the House of Druille, yelled.

"You guys hurry up and defeat them!"

-We tried! But the enemy is very strong. Hugh was fighting Greg and Jilk.

Greg, naked and with a machine gun in hand, consulted with Jilk who was in the corner.

"Jilk, cover me, will you?"

"Are you stupid enough to attack naked?"

Greg showed the bitter Jilk a small device that he pulled from his pants."If you have this thing, it will keep you safe and sound from bullets.

"Luxon told me.”

?… Where did you take it from? And don't come near me.

Greg, who tucked the device back into his pants, held the machine gun at his waist."Jilk, take the rear guard!" Hyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The enemy was thrown into chaos when Greg began to attack and pulled the trigger on the machine gun.

?Why is he naked !?

"N-It can't be. This guy is immune to bullets!” "Then with magic … Buh!"

Jilk from behind was attacking the knight who was about to use magic.

Hugh raised his right hand when he saw his ally being knocked down by a non-lethal rubber bullet.

"You barbarian apes of the Kingdom, you thought you could defeat us with ---" "Here!"

However, Greg also knew from his previous experience that the blessing of the Holy Tree was dangerous.

As you guessed it, I have been working on a countermeasure for that as well. Hugh was sent flying backward by Greg's jump kick.

"D-Damn …

Greg turned his gun on Hugh as he tried to stand up.

-Checkmate. If they're going to use the power of the Sacred Tree, I'll finish them off before they do. That's it.

"Yes, I found a weak point!", He spoke with such attitude, but that was only brute force. Then Jilk walked over, drew his gun --- and shot Hugh.

—It hurrrrrtttsssss !!

Seeing Hugh struggling to maintain his face, Jilk pulled out his handcuffs.

"When did you get good? Should have fired from the start. Come on, I'll restrain you.”

This was a containment device prepared by Luxon and could not be easily destroyed.

It was a device that you couldn't easily get rid of despite having the emblems of the six great noble families.

Hugh protested, his face red and puffy at being held back by the two men.

"Don't be silly, guys. What they are doing is the work of a brainless idiot. I don't know if they will help Louise, but if they do, the Republic will surely pay dearly for it. I have remembered their faces. I will never forgive them.”

When Greg and Jilk looked at each other, they started laughing.

-It is true. Baltfault didn't think of any of that, did he?

"He's an idiot, you know. He's an idiot in a good way and a bad one. Even if we talk about in the future.”

They continued, leaving Hugh behind.

"H-Hey, wait! Are you planning to leave me like this !? I-I'm Hugh of the six nobles!”

Greg turned around.

"-I do not know you. I'll ask you later if you want to introduce yourself. By the way, my name is Greg.”

"Jilk also waved his hand as he introduced himself."I am Jilk. Let's have tea together sometime.”

Hugh couldn't speak when he saw their reactions."E-Eh?"

◇

As I was moving down the hall, defeating enemies, a person was standing there. He raised his hands with a wry smile as he held his weapon.

-I give up.

?… That way of giving up was too easy. What are you thinking? This person was Emile.

We had seen each other many times, but it was the first time we had talked like this. Emile scratched his cheek with his fingers, as if he was embarrassed.

"I'm not very good with fear and pain. I had the knights and soldiers of House Pleven retreat. And Louise is over there.”

There was no indication that he was lying.

I lowered my gaze and was about to walk past Emile when he spoke to me.

"I don't see the knights and soldiers of House Rault. The aircraft from outside, only those of the Rault family have not left with their armed units. -

-- Could it be that they are working together?”

Emile was smiling when I stopped and looked at him. He was glad to see my face and decided I was right.

-I knew it! I was also concerned about the timing and location of the attacks. I thought: "Surely there is someone here giving information."

It was true that the Rault House was working with us.

They were willing to help us.

"You shouldn't babble in front of the enemy. You don’t know if it will make you disappear.”

"You wouldn't do that. Instead, you will find that Serge is just down the road. He is very strong.”

-I can’t wait!! Beating up a guy who thinks he is strong is the best thing for me! - --Well, Serge is a bonus. It's Louise I want to save.

Continuing on, I saw a door where I thought Louise would be.

◇

In Louise's room, Serge was standing and moving.

The maids around Louise screamed in fright every time the ship crashed in battle.

The ship's transmissions reported one by one that they had been penetrated, implying that the enemy was close.

Footsteps were heard coming from behind the door among some crying servants. Serge took the gun in his hand …

"You guys don't go out."

… Saying that, he pulled the trigger and fired all the bullets at the door. The sound of gunfire echoed and they fell to the ground.

Serge kept his spear at the ready as he launched the smoking weapon.

-Get out of there.

A person kicked through the hole in the door and entered. In his hand was a machine gun.

"I'm here to have fun."

Leon said that with a smile on his face, and then pointed his gun at Serge and fired.

For those in the Republic, where continuous fire is not common, machine guns were a threat.

However, Serge put his right hand in front of him and magically deployed his shield stopping all his bullets.

The loaded rubber bullets rolled on the ground. Serge was disappointed to see that.

"You're a spoiled brat too. At least get real bullets. I was hoping to really crush you.”

Serge was discouraged by the attack that was not intended to kill his opponent.

Leon dropped the machine gun, drew his sword, and held it in one hand.

-Strange. I love squashing people I don't like too! And I didn't like you from the moment I met you!

Leon, who said those lines as if he were a villain, attacked Serge with his sword. Serge intercepted Leon's sword with his spear and raised the corner of his mouth."Your blow is light." Wasn't the people of the Kingdom stronger in melee !? Serge gave a front kick, doubled over Leon's body and sent him flying.

Leon wiped his mouth as he rolled on the floor and stood up calmly. Serge could roughly predict Leon's abilities.

"You have some good skills, but you are no match for me." Leon's expression distorted.

◇

On the other hand.

Chris and Brad had also arrived where Narcisse was, who was leading the soldiers. As Brad pointed the gun at him, Narcisse raised his hands to surrender.

-Hey? You are not very motivated.

When Brad asked, Narcisse blurted out his true feelings.

"Because I honestly don't want to sacrifice my acquaintance and former student, Louise. I am relieved somewhere in my heart that you guys have come to save her.”

Brad lowered his gun when he heard Narcisse speak.

"There are decent people in the Six Great Nobles, huh? That’s a relief. I thought they were all like Pierre.”

?… Pierre is the exception. Better yet, if we're going to move on from here, we better be careful.”

It was then that Chris responded to Narcisse's advice."Do you think we better stay behind?"

"I know you are strong. But you have no idea how scary Serge is. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

-Scary?

Previously, Narcisse went into a dungeon with Leon and his friends.

In doing so, he also saw the strength of Leon and his team, but continued to think that Serge was different.

"Serge is very strong." A few years ago, he killed a monster with his bare hands without using the blessing of the Holy Tree. And it was not a small one, it was a large one two meters long.

A few years ago Narcisse would have been about fifteen.

If he killed the monster with his bare hands at that time, he could be really dangerous.

But Brad didn't seem interested.

-Great. Oh, Chris, do you have handcuffs?

-Yes.

Brad looked at Chris as he removed the handcuffs from his loincloth and made a worried face.

"Why did you put it there?" I don't want to touch him, so you put the handcuffs on him.

-It's okay. But the downside of the loincloth is that it has no pockets.

Other than that, it's perfect … Mm? It seems that Baltfault is getting closer to his goal.

He wore a communication device in his ear that looked like a headset, from which information was delivered to him.

Narcisse was upset with the two men for not taking him seriously.

"Are you listening to me !? Serge is where Louise is. Serge is really dangerous! It is not only strong. He is a cruel man. If they leave it like that, Leon will die.

Brad gave a little sigh in front of Narcisse.

"You are Narcisse, right? You don't understand it at all.”

-Hey?

Narcisse was handcuffed by Chris, but decided to ignore the strange warmth.

Because you don't want to think about it too much. Chris talked about Leon while handcuffing him.

"I don't know what you’re thinking, but Baltfault is a true hero. There is no way he can lose to an opponent who is only strong. To begin with, being strong is not enough to win, which is why it is so difficult.”

Brad nodded and worried about his opponent.

-Yes. Isn’t he going to beat this Serge up? Baltfault is a horrible guy. I, for my part, don't want to fight Baltfault.

-I think the same. In a practice fight, it's okay. But in a real fight, he would definitely run.

Narcisse thought as he listened to their trust in Leon. Do you get along with him? Or is it the opposite?

◇ ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

While Leon came to Louise's room. Julian was fighting outside with Loic.

?This guy is really trying to die !?

Julian, who was fighting him, avoided Loic's blow and destroyed his left arm. Loic's armed unit was wrecked and he had no weapons.

Therefore, the only attack Loic could do was to deliver melee punches. Julian was fighting to avoid killing Loic and trying to stop him.

"I have a hard time containing you." --- Your name is Loic, right? You will really die if you fight like this!

He called Loic out of consideration and to make him understand what he was doing.

-"And with that?"

-What?

?"I'm almost dead. There is nothing left for me. Nothing remains!" When Loic attacked again, Julian caught him and threw him onto Einhorn's deck. Then he opened the booth and saw Loic. His eyes were bloodshot.

When he saw Loic earlier, he looked like a nobleman, but now he looked quite rough. A figure with a sharp look in his eyes and wrinkled cheeks.

From the way he looked slimmer than before, it seems like he had a really hard time.

When Loic emerged from the cockpit, he grasped his sword as it was. It seems like he wanted to face his opponent with his sword even though Julian was in his armed unit.

"Y-You!"

-… I have nothing. My family wanted me to die. I don't know where I belong! Julian could easily guess Loic's current position.

His family wanted him dead. Such was Loic's pity.

Julian opened his hatch and stepped out, picking up his sword in the same way.

If you don't want to live with that shame, I'll end it here. He didn't attack him because he didn't like him.

Julian sympathized with Loic and thought it would be nice to end up here.

Seeing Julian step out of the booth, Loic seemed a bit happy to see him. Because Julian's eyes told him he was going to kill him.

"Thank you, Prince of the Realm." You gave me a place to die. And I thank you for giving my death meaning.

He couldn't take his own life, but they didn't give him a place to die either.

It seems that even a fight like this would have made sense for Loic, who was waiting to be eliminated by his family.

"I'll get this over with."

While they both held their swords, Noelle stepped out onto the bridge.

She came out gasping and then walking to stop the fight between Julian and Loic. -… Noelle, don't come!

Noelle approached them when Julian told her to get back into the ship. When Loic looked at Noelle, he had a complex look on his face.

Quickly he returned his gaze from Julian and went straight to speak to Noelle. -… Noelle! I … I … I liked you. It's a fact that I was in love with you.

"Loic, let this go. You don't have to go that far. I don't want Louise to be euthanized. I don't want her to die! The same goes for you. You don't need to die!”

-I'm already almost dead! Staying alive is in vain.

Loic's eyes filled with tears, and then he lowered the tip of his sword and turned.

"A nobleman who loses the blessing of the Holy Tree is frowned upon by those around him." I have no reason to live. Sooner or later, they will assassinate me and I will die. In that case … I want to die fighting here.

"If you are going to die eventually, make your death a little more meaningful." That was Loic's wish.

Julian didn't let go of his sword stance, but he made time to let the two speak. Noelle kept trying to convince Loic.

"Just get out of the house!" You can live without your blessing. You don't have to be Loic of the six great nobles. You can live like a simple Loic!

Loic laughed while crying.

-… You're wrong. You're wrong! "Loic?"

"I said I loved you, but I didn't know anything about you." I didn't want to know! All I did was tie you up, make you suffer and hurt you. I don't deserve to live like this.

The reason Loic wanted to die was because he had hurt Noelle.

I was able to put distance between us and for the first time I was able to look at myself objectively.

Loic dropped his sword and put his hands in front of Julian.

"Your Highness Julian, I honestly have no strength left to fight." It's a selfish wish, but I'd like it to end with a single attack.

Julian regained control of his sword and put his strength into it.

-It's okay. Do you have any last word? Loic smiled. Somehow, he looked happy.

"Noelle… I'm sorry. I'm also sorry for the trouble I've caused you, Your Highness. I want to apologize to the Count as well. Tell him I'm sorry.”

-I’ll pass on your words.

As Julian was about to strike, Marie's fist slammed into the side of Loic's face with her arms outstretched.

"Are you kidding me, you damn brat!" "Owh! Gohoh!”

Watching Loic roll across the deck, Julian stopped and lowered his sword.

-Marie? E-Ehmm, you don't think this is the scene where I'm going to grant Loic his wish, do you?

Julian was taken aback by Marie's intrusion. And Noelle was worried too.

-Marie? E-Ehmm, Loic flew away.

You'd think little Marie's fists wouldn't be strong, but Julian knew the force of her fists better than anyone.

Marie's fists are very strong.

It was no joke, her strength could send men twice his size flying with a single fist.

Marie reached out to Loic with her fist and grabbed his hair with her left hand, lifting him up. Then she slapped him with her right hand. She continued to slap him with the back of her right hand."I-I'm sorry, forgive me …”

Both cheeks were very swollen as Loic continued to be beaten.

Marie regulated her erratic breathing before bringing Loic's face closer to hers.

-Why do you want to die? Why is life not worth living? Have you just had your heart broken and do you think you will become a tragic hero?

How disgusting."They told me that …

At Loic, who couldn't speak well, Marie looked at him with contempt and silenced him.

There was so much power in Marie now.

"That's why they reject you. When your heart is broken, you move on. Are you going to die for persisting in that? You're kidding me, huh? Ahh

!?”

"Urki!"

As she pressed down on the scared Loic and rolled him to the ground, Marie dropped her threatening tone and began to admonish him.

"There are people who want to live, but have no choice but to die. I won't really let you die from just that.”

"B-But …

-But nothing! Agree? We were born into this world and we have to continue living until we die. You are young, you still have a lot ahead of you, and are you going to die because your heart was broken once? Don't be naive! Do you think it's cool to die gracefully? You're an Idiot.

Marie had a serious look in her eyes, despite her acting ridiculous. Julian found Marie's words strangely compelling.

Why is Marie trying to convince this guy?

There should be no connection between Loic and Marie.

But maybe it was because Marie couldn't bear to see the desperate Loic.

"What's really cool is surviving to the end. The coolest person is the one who fights as hard as he can, and still survives. Now you're just a brat who says he's going to die because his heart was broken. That's not cool at all.

No wonder Noelle hates you.”

Loic looked down.

"What do you know about me? Do you have any idea how I felt when I lost everything as a noble and was ready to die?”

-I do not know! You have the nerve to ask someone else to feel the same way about you when you didn't know how Noelle felt. If you are a man, you should go up from the bottom. You say you have lost the blessing of the Holy Tree, but we can live without it from the beginning. I don't even have noble status. All I have is debt.

Marie forced Loic to his feet and hit him lightly in the stomach with her fist.

—It's naive for a person to die that simple. A person at the base of the pyramid cannot even choose how to live his own life. You have time on your hands and you can start over.

"O-Okay …

Marie hugged Loic, who was already crying.

Julian, who had been listening to the story, thought it would be difficult.

However, seeing as Marie had convinced Loic to join her, it wasn't far- fetched.

He quickly climbed into his armed unit and alerted his surroundings. The Republic fleet does not attack Einhorn. Are you afraid of Baltfault? No, maybe it's because Baltfault has the Guardian Crest?

Einhorn, flying the flag of the pirates of heaven, was in no position to be shot down.

But the fleet, led by Fernand, did not interfere.

Now it only remains for Baltfault to bring Louise back as planned.
