The World of Otome Games is Tough For Mobs - Volume 10 - Chapter 4.4

The location has changed, the room at Einhorn. 

Noel and Erika were in the room used by Ange and Livia. 

Noel is stunned to see Ange tending to her guns. 

“Everyone’s eyes change when they hear the word adventure. It’s as if Ange has changed too.” 

When told, Ange readies her rifle and pulls the trigger. 

No bullets were loaded, and only metallic sounds echoed through the room. 

“That’s how fascinating this issue is.” 

On behalf of Ange, who is not busy inspecting her equipment, Erika explains the situation in the kingdom to a wondering Noel. 

“I don’t know if Noel-san would understand, but the Kingdom was founded by adventurers.” 

“I heard that, but isn’t everyone getting a little overexcited?” 

“Well, maybe this is a rebellious spirit that has been going on for generations, a defiance to pay back the motherland?” 

“Motherland?” 

“Many of the people in the kingdom are originally from the Holy Kingdom of Raschel. I thought that the low status of adventurers in Raschel might have made them even more competitive.” 

“Fu~hn” 

Ange turns to Noel, who has finished inspecting Erika’s story. 

“There has been a history between the Kingdom and Raschel since before the founding of the Kingdom. In the first place, those who were caught up in the political upheaval in Raschel were chased away and found themselves in the land that is now the Kingdom.” 

“There’s a lot going on, isn’t there? But in a country like that, Leon has a bounty on his head, doesn’t he?” 

When the bounty is mentioned, Ange looks uninterested. 

“To them, we’ll always be something to look down on. They don’t want to think that the tables have turned.” 

Confirming that Ange does not have very good feelings toward the Holy Kingdom of Raschel, Noel ends the conversation. 

“I understand the whole situation, but for what it’s worth, everyone seems to be having a fun time, don’t they? I don’t think it’s all about old grudges.” Asked if she’s having fun, Ange giggles and smiles. 

“It’s actually fun. It’s in my blood, I guess? It’s always been one of my dreams to be a successful adventurer. ―― I’m grateful to Leon.” She is grateful. 

As she said this, Ange laughed a little sadly.
