The World of Otome Games is Tough For Mobs-Volume 7, Chapter 8 “Parent-Child Bonds”

Part 1

Temple of the Sacred Tree.

Serge, sitting on the throne that had been prepared for him, was annoyed that he didn’t know where Lelia was.

He knew that she was working together with Leon and the others, but their movements were unknown. He heard that there was some kind of airship coming, but Luxion was jamming the communication and Ideal had no solid information.

“I’m going to fight that bastard and get Lelia back.”

Not wanting to wait, he gets up and Ideal comes towards him.

Ever since Serge had called him a liar, he had been in a foul mood.

[Einhorn is leading thirty airships toward us. I’ve heard that Lelia-sama is aboard one of Einhorn’s ships. I’ve also confirmed that Louise is on board.]

“That side comes here? Did they come to get back the bastard Alberg?”

[No, sir. It looks like they are going to take back Yumeria. And Lelia-sama on board on a white airship and move backwards. Please be careful when fighting.]

Serge was a little suspicious of Ideal’s detailed information, but he let it go.

What was suspicious was the fact that he had gotten so much information while he has been jamming. But right now, Lelia was more important than Ideal.

“Perfect. I’m going to finish with that bastard here. I’ll show that bastard Alberg the corpse of Leon and Louise.”

Ideal watched in silence as Serge exited the throne room in high spirits.

.

Part 2

When he came to the hangar, there were knights, soldiers, adventurers, mercenaries, and ruffians ―― waiting to go out.

In their right hands, they had a lower-level crest.

Knights who had previously held a lower crest were given a higher crest and appointed as platoon leaders.

Several of them have been given the crest of the six great noble houses and have been appointed as Squadron Leader and Captain.

The Revolutionary Armed Forces had only been in existence for a short time, and its organizational structure was not yet complete.

The crest that Serge gave them will raise the performance of the armor they ride.

At the same time, the armor they rode in boasted high performance even without any crest.

The armors were redesigned and prepared by Ideal.

Like Arroganz, the armors are impossible to manufacture with the level of technology in this world.

The most powerful of them all is the four-legged type Gier that Serge rides.

Standing in front of Gier, Serge inspires his allies to face the coming enemy.

“Some idiot recklessly tried to pick a fight with us. ―― Leon Fou Bartfalt. He’s a hero of the kingdom who’s been rampaging on our homeland, but it’s time for him to leave.”

The comrade pilots who had obtained the crest were not afraid when they heard Leon’s name.

They have been defeated many times before, but they believe in the power of their new crest and weapon.

They were confident that they could beat Leon now.

It was the same for Serge.

He got higher-spec armor than Arroganz called Gier, and this time, he going to defeat Leon.

(I’m going to beat that guy to death for humiliating me)

If both of them had a fight with their all and he lost, it was unforgivable, but it still made sense. But Leon never took Serge seriously from the start.

He pretended to lose in order to deceive Louise.

Then, the moment Leon showed his seriousness, Serge was taken down by a single blow.

What could be more humiliating than that?

“Let’s move out! Show those foolish bastards from the Horfalt Kingdom what the commonwealth is truly capable of!”

The soldiers all shouted in unison, “OH!” and climbed into their armor.

Serge also boarded the Gier. It was bigger than the Arroganz, so there was more room in the cockpit.

As he sat in the seat and tightened his grip on the control stick, the monitor started up and showed the surrounding scenery. The images from the monitor looked as if they were seen with the naked eye.

The four legs of the Gier slowly raise the machine. In his right hand, he holds a spear, and in his left, a large shield.

The figure looked like a centaur, but it also resembled a mounted knight.

As Gier slowly rose from the ground, the mass-produced armors around him also flew up in unison.

Hundreds of armor soar in the sky and form a formation.

The airship built by Ideal is also in a formation and ready to intercept.

“Come on, any time you want. I’ll make this place your grave.”

A vengeful Serge looked at the distant fleet of the Horfalt Kingdom and licked his lips.

He felt like a predator that waiting for his prey.

A mere thirty airships charge toward the Temple of the Sacred Tree without a plan.

When Serge saw that, he raised the corners of his mouth.

“Charge like a fool? Our cannon’s range is increasing! All ships, start firing!”

At the sound of Serge’s voice, the airship’s gun turret was activated and pointed its barrel at Einhorn, who was in the lead.

Instead of the regular cannons lined up on the sides, these are movable turrets.

These airships are not fully automatic, but they are still a great improvement from the commonwealth’s airships.

All at once, the barrels fire, and then the next round is loaded and fired immediately.

It has an unprecedented rapid fire and hit rate, and most importantly, its range has been greatly increased.

It’s also faster and stronger than any previous airship.

How could any pilot not feel confident in this.

A shell immediately hit Einhorn, who was in the lead, and he was enveloped in the smoke generated by the explosion.

Still, Serge does not stop the attack.

“More. More shots! I don’t care if you have to shoot them with all the bullets, just hit them with everything you’ve got!”

With bloodshot eyes, Serge was excited to have overwhelming power in his hands.

His breathing became ragged as he imagined Leon and the others torn to pieces.

But ――.

“Chi! Not so easy to sink, is it?”

――What appeared as if cutting through the black smoke was Einhorn, whose bow extended like a horn.

It looked like they had done some damage, but it was still in one piece.

A panicked communication comes from an ally.

“Guardian-sama, the e-enemy is coming!”

The quality of the pilots was inexplicably low, as there were more amateurs than well-trained soldiers.

“Calm down. This side has larger numbers than that side. If we surround them and hit them, they are not an enemy to be afraid of. The enemy will be sending out their armor soon. Intercept them!”

He thought that the enemy airships would slow down and launch their armor.

But Einhorn maintained its maximum speed――They charge into the fleet of Serge and the rest of the Revolutionary Guard.

“A-Are they idiots!”

Behind Serge and the others is the Temple of the Sacred Tree.

There was also Yumeria, whom Leon and the others were trying to save.

It was insane to charge into a place like that.

But then he remembered that he had done the same thing before when he rescued Louise.

“The people of the Kingdom, they are a real assault fool.”

Even the stubborn Serge was astonished.

He moves Gier off the course of Einhorn and commands the surroundings.

Einhorn proceeds to knock off the armor, which is startled and unable to move. Then, even though it collided with a slow-moving airship, it flicked them and rushed straight into the temple of the Sacred Tree like an arrow, and suddenly changed its direction in the middle.

Unable to kill the momentum, Einhorn slammed into the ground in front of the Temple of the Sacred Tree from the side of the ship, scraping the earth. As it arrived at the Temple of the Sacred Tree, the hatch in the hangar opened and the armor came flying out.

Among the armors he had seen before, white, green, blue, red, and purple, there was an armor with a gray and black.

It’s Arroganz.

Serge’s eyes widened and he took out a syringe from the metal case he had brought into the cockpit. It was a body enhancement drug that Ideal had prepared for him.

It was also a powerful drug that ignored the burden on the body.

“I found it, you son of a bi~itch!”

Thinking that Leon is there, he roughly sticks the syringe into his own body and injects the drug.

For a few moments, Serge’s eyes go white, but he quickly calms down and returns to normal.

However, he was sweating like crazy and his eyes were bloodshot.

“It works. It’s better than the one I was using before. This sharpened sensation is the best I’ve ever felt, ignoring the pain in my body.”

Serge, who has used a Body Strengthening Drug, heads into the building himself to pursue Leon and the others who have entered the Sacred Tree Temple.

“Ten of you follow me! I’m gonna crush the bastards that got inside!”

As Gier headed for the Temple of the Sacred Tree, a dozen or so armors followed behind him.

The Revolutionary Army is defending the Temple of the Sacred Tree, but a battle begins with the invading Kingdom Army.

.

Part 3

The Arroganz were being led by Loic, who was riding in white armor, as they pushed forward.

“It’s this way!”

They proceeded to kick apart the defense equipment that Ideal had prepared.

At that time, one armor jumps out.

“Chi!”

Loic tried to take it on, Greg would push him away from behind.

“You step back. We’ll deal with them here.”

“W, wait. I can fight too! “

Loic, who had been pushed away, said he could fight, Greg had stabbed the enemy with his spear in the meantime. The pilot was unharmed, but Greg pulled out his spear and wildly kicked the enemy’s armor away.

“These guys could be your friends! ―― All you have to do is show us the way. Don’t deal with them.”

It was a clumsy move by Greg to be considerate of Loic.

Loic utters his thanks.

“I’m sorry. But more importantly, if that video is correct, it’s ahead.”

They could see a large door in front of them.

When Chris opens the door, a hail of bullets rains down.

“It’s an ambush after all!”

Drone defense equipment prepared by Ideal is available, and they attack intruders without mercy.

Then Arroganz stepped forward and forcibly destroyed the defense equipment. The method was he get close and put his hands on it ―― hit it with a shockwave, a violent one.

Chris criticizes the action.

“Arroganz, don’t get too far ahead!”

Arroganz turns and says back to Chris.

“We don’t have time for this! You guys get your asses in here!”

The armor that Jilk rides is shooting through the defense equipment with his rifle.

“You’re a real pain in the ass.”

Brad stood in position to watch the doorway.

“No enemies come from behind”

After destroying most of the defense equipment, they found a part of the sacred tree exposed at the back of the large room. The entire wall was covered with the sacred tree.

In the hollow of the center part of it, Yumeria was sitting.

The roots of the trees were entwined, as if they were trying to entrap her.

Yumeria does not react even in the midst of a battle.

If Arroganz approach carelessly, an electric shock will occur.

[Let’s not get any closer, shall you?]

Coming down from the ceiling was Ideal with a drone in tow.

He shows his displeasure at Arroganz and others who have invaded.

[Yumeria has a role to play. I can’t let you take her.]

It was Greg who interrupted the words.

“Don’t talk so high and mighty, you kidnapper!”

However―― Ideals also explode with emotion.

[Even though it is unforgivable for people to approach the sacred tree, you went rampage without understanding it. You all really are nothing more than garbage.]

When Greg heard this, he realized Ideal’s true nature.

“Is that your true nature? Luxion may have a bad mouth, but he wasn’t as rotten as you.”

[――Luxion. I knew the immigrant ship’s population intelligence was defective. He helped you and betrayed the old humans. I’m going to use his body.]

Arroganz leaps at Ideal.

“Stop talking nonsense, it’s noisy!”

Ideal sends the drones to Arroganz, but ―― the ceiling is destroyed and Gier, the four-legged armor, emerges from it.

“Found you, son of a bitch!”

He stomps on Arroganz and slams him straight into the ground.

Armor invaded one after another after Gier, but the shields protecting Yumeria were shut down due to the destruction of the ceiling.

Ideal complained to Serge, who showed up.

[What the hell were you thinking, destroying a defense system!]

“Do not get in the way. This one is my prey!”

Serge was enjoying stomping on Arroganz and was more belligerent than usual due to the strengthening drugs he had taken. His judgment was lower than usual.

Greg charges in with Chris, blasting Gier away, and Brad and Loic step back after retrieving Arroganz.

Serge’s subordinates continue to attack from the sky.

Ideal shouts.

[Do you understand that there is a priestess of the sacred tree!]

After starting the battle where Yumeria was, Serge looked at the Arroganz.

He thinks that Leon is there and talks to him.

“Since you’ve beaten me ―― No, it’s been longer than that. I can’t get your face out of my head. If I don’t kill you, I won’t be able to forgive myself. Please, disappear from my life, Leon!”

Gier, a four-legged armor, is highly mobile and fast. He closes the distance between him and the Arroganz in an instant, and tries to thrust his spear at him.

There, Loic hit him with his body.

“Serge, stop it. Is this what you’ve always wanted to do? Didn’t you always dream of becoming an adventurer? ”

Serge was furious when he heard Loic’s voice.

“I see, so you’re on their side. Then you’re the enemy. I’m going to destroy you into a million pieces and show it to your father!”

Apparently, the heads of the six great noble houses are still alive.

Jilk raised his rifle and shot at the armors attacking them from the sky.

“I don’t want to fight here. Let’s take it outside.”

Brad agrees with Jilk’s suggestion.

“It’s definitely better outside.”

Brad’s purple armor has a spear-shaped drone on its back that shoots out to take on enemy armor and drones.

The enemy’s armor deployed a magic circle under the attack of the machine gun planted in the spear.

It is the crest of the six great noble houses. The attack was repelled.

“Are his followers this strong?”

Brad is surprised, but tries to fight against the large number of them and drive them outside.

Serge is fighting Chris’s armor, who is holding a sword, and he hits him with his shield.

The armor that Chris rides rolls on the ground.

“Guh!”

Soon Greg was taking on Serge, but his power was losing.

“Is this guy stronger than Arroganz?”

When Greg was surprised, Serge, who was very proud, started laughing and bragging. He seems to be relaxed about the overwhelming performance of the Gier.

“This is the armor that had been specially prepared to kill Leon. It’s only natural for it to be strong!”

Gier, controlled by Serge, who is out of control and on a rampage, but when Arroganz flies in the sky and heads outside, he chases after him.

“Don’t run away, you coward! Only you that I will take out in front of father and sister――I have to make them accept that I’m a little brother!”

Confused, Serge mouthed off about Alberg and Louise as his father and sister.

No one had time to point it out or even notice it.

When Arroganz went outside, they found a fierce battle going on between the kingdom army and the rebels.

Before they knew it, Einhorn was also up there, and it was fighting.

From Arroganz’s position and looked down, Gier was coming at him from there.

“Don’t think you can escape. We’re constantly being supplied with energy from the Sacred Tree. And the power!”

When Gier kicks Arroganz, he is blown away. Gier moves in front of where he was blown away, and uses his shield to knock the Arroganz to the ground.

“Also Speed !” 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

As Gier approached Arroganz, who was falling to the ground, he was about to thrust her spear at the cockpit. He was going to hit him on the ground and stab it with his spear.

“I’m stronger than you! I’m more suitable for the family!”

When Arroganz put his hands out in front of him, he created a shockwave that blew Gier away. Arroganz was knocked to the ground, but quickly got up.

Gier, who also fell to the ground, is standing firmly on the ground with all four legs.

“Ahaha!”

Serge, who was not normal, seemed to see only the Arroganz in front of him. That’s why he hadn’t noticed.

“Your opponent is us!”

Greg and Chris attacked from both sides as they closed in on Gier.

Gier blocked Chris’s attack with his shield, but the other side ―― The right side could not catch Greg’s spear and the tip of the spear pierced his chest.

“I thought I couldn’t stab you with this.”

He could hear Greg’s frustrated voice, and now Gier swayed as he was attacked from behind.

“Damn it! A bunch of weaklings”

As Serge tried to crush Greg and the others, the spear-shaped drones floating around them began to attack with machine guns.

Greg and Chris slashed at him while he was cowering under the attack.

And then there was Jilk with his rifle, aiming at the joints.

“I’ve been thinking about how to fight against Count Bartfalt, but even with this, I can’t drop him? It’s really troublesome.”

It was the coordination that the five of them had been thinking of in order to counter Leon riding Arroganz.

Fight using numbers, not one on one, but four on one.

However, Gier is struggling, but they still can’t beat him.

Chris shouts to Arroganz.

“Leave this to us, you go and help Yumeria-san!”

Arroganz immediately headed for the Temple of the Sacred Tree.

When Serge saw this, he shouted.

“You’ve got to be kidding me! Don’t run away and fight, Leon! I’ve been waiting for this moment ―― for years!”

.

Part 4

The Arroganz have arrived back inside the Sacred Tree Temple.

[Serge is still no use, huh?]

Ideal looks disappointed at the sight of him, but Arroganz caught Ideal with his right hand and shattered him with a shockwave.

Then the cockpit of the Arroganz opened.

The one who came out of it ―― not Leon, but Kyle.

“Kaa-san ―― Kaa-san!”

Arroganz puts Kyle on his hand and brings him closer to Yumeria.

Kyle touches Yumeria, but although her eyes are open, she is unconscious.

No matter how much he called out to her, Yumeria did not show any response.

Even so, Kyle kept calling her.

“Sorry ―― I’m sorry. It’s, It’s my fault. That’s why please come back. I don’t want to lose Kaa-san. I don’t care if we’re apart. But if Kaa-san is not fine, I don’t want it! I never wanted you to look like this.”

He spilled large tears and kept calling out to Yumeria.

Kyle’s coldness to Yumeria was partly embarrassment, but also ―― He wanted Yumeria to be strong.

“I―― I want to be with Kaa-san more. Because I’m going to die before you. I can’t be with you forever――”

Elf and Half-Elf. The difference in appearance is indistinguishable, but the main difference is life span. Half-Elves have the same lifespan as humans.

However, the lifespan of sub-race such as elves is many times longer than that of humans.

Half-elf growth is the same as humans.

Even though Kyle may look younger now, eventually he will look more mature.

And he dies before Yumeria.

“You are unreliable but kind――I loved Kaa-san like that. If I don’t behave properly, Kaa-san is easy to be fooled――I wanted you to be more reliable. And I thought I was right, so.”

Kyle cried and begged for forgiveness, but there was no response from Yumeria.

Kyle squeezes his hand thinking what he is doing is useless.

“I’m sorry, Kaa-san. I ―― I loved Kaa-san. It’s because I pushed you too hard that this is happening, I’m really sorry.”

Even if she didn’t regain consciousness, he was going to take care of Yumeria.

When he reached out to help her and touched the sacred tree, Yumeria, who had been hanging her head down, looked up.

Then, she makes a puzzled face.

“Are? Already morning? Ah, good morning, Kyle. ―― Hmm? Kyle, w-w-what’s wrong !? Why are you crying so much!? Does it hurt somewhere? A-Anone, I’ll treat you right away, just wait. A-Arere? Kaa-san can’t move. “

Yumeria woke up and didn’t understand her situation.

Kyle sees that and hugs her, crying.

“I’m sorryy. I’m leally zorryyy.”

He was crying so much that she couldn’t understand what he was saying, but Yumeria smiled gently.

“I don’t really understand, but I forgive you. Because I’m Kyle’s mother.”

As Yumeria regains consciousness, Arroganz’s twin eyes glow once.

Then, with his left hand, he began to remove the branch of the sacred tree that was wrapped around Yumeria.

Arroganz was moving without personnel.

Once Yumeria was released, Kyle led her straight to the cockpit.

“Kaa-san, over here!”

“A-Are you sure? Won’t Leon-sama be mad?”

“He won’t get mad! I’ve got permission, so get in! We’re surrounded by enemies ――!”

When Kyle looked up at the sky, he saw Gier, Serge’s armor, floating there.

However, it was floating and looking down at Kyle and the others.

” ―― You are not Leon, huh? And you are parent and child?”

Gier looked down at Kyle and he hugged Yumeria.

(This is not good. If that guy attacks us now, we’re dead)

As Gier’s right hand moved, Kyle tried to push Yumeria away.

He thought it would save her life if she could get into the cockpit of Arroganz.

However, it was Yumeria who moved first.

She pushes Kyle into the cockpit of Arroganz.

“Ka, Kaa-san!”

Yumeria looked at Kyle and smiled. When Gier approached Yumeria, Kyle reached out to her.

(I’ve come this far!)

In such a critical situation, Arroganz detached the container with a burner from the backpack and shot it out. The container hit Gier, and the burner ignited to push Gier back.

“Only you guys aaaAaAaA!”

Hearing Serge’s voice, Kyle hurriedly pulled Yumeria’s hand and entered the cockpit of Arroganz.

“Arroganz, we’re in!”

With a shout, the Arroganz close the hatch and fly into the sky. However, the flight speed of Arroganz who lost the container has dropped significantly.

Gier, who destroyed the container, comes close to stabbing the Spear at such Arroganz.

There, Brad jumped in.

“Go! To Bartfalt’s place!”

Brad’s tattered armor was in the way, holding Gier.

Kyle thanked him.

“T-Thank you very much!”

Einhorn was where Arroganz was headed.

And there was no enemy flying battleship in the sky of the Sacred Tree Temple.

All of the armor had been destroyed as well, and the only thing floating around was the allied airship and armor.

On the deck of the Einhorn, Leon’s figure was waiting for Kyle.
