The World of Otome Games is Tough For Mobs - Volume 10 - Chapter 6.1

CHAPTER 6 - ERIKA AND MIA

1

At a time when Leon and his team are engaged in fierce battles. 

Finn and his partner Brave were walking with Mia and Erika near the ground floor of the old castle. 

Thanks to Leon and his team’s efforts to defeat the monsters, it was quiet inside the old castle. 

The four of them went out into the sunlit courtyard, where they observed an unfamiliar plant. 

“Knight-sama, what is the name of this?” 

Finn was dazzled by the sight of Mia bent over looking at the plants. 

Not only the sunshine that pours down, but also the presence of Mia is dazzling to Finn. 

(If only she could have spent her days playing in the sun like this) 

Finn, who sees Mia as his sister in a previous life, looks at the plant and tells her in a gentle tone that he doesn’t know it either. 

“I don’t know this plant. This area was isolated, so maybe there are some new species of plants?” 

“New species?! Isn’t it a great discovery?” 

“That’s right. It’s the result of Mia’s adventure.” 

“Ehehe” 

Brave was a little dumbfounded when Finn patted Mia’s head, who seemed happy. 

[My buddy dotes on Mia. You can give me more love, too.] 

“Hmm? Next time for Kurosuke” 

Brave was in tears as Finn gave a curt reply. 

[That’s how my buddy always chooses Mia over me. I’m just a magical creature who is conveniently used only when it comes to fighting!] Mia smiled bitterly at Brave, who began to cry. 

“Buu-kun, you liked the stage play we saw before.” 

Apparently, he was impressed by a stage play that took place in the kingdom. 

Brave sticks out two small hands and makes a gesture with his chest. 

[It’s a line of love-hate drama] 

Finn had no idea that his partner liked to watch stage plays. 

“You remember a lot of weird stuff.” 

[It’s a story about one man who gets his hands on two women and gets stabbed. It was interesting to watch the cornered man act.] 

Upon hearing that, Finn murmured what he thought. 

“He’s like Bartfalt.” 

Mia may have felt that as well, so she cautions Finn because Leon is a nobleman from another country. 

“Knight-sama, that’s an overstatement.” 

“It’s all right. He understands.” 

Mia looks at Finn curiously, then she starts to smile gradually. 

“Knight-sama, you seem to be having some fun. I feel like you are friends with the 

Duke.” 

“Eh?” 

Finn was surprised to be told something unexpected, but when he thought about it, he thought it was natural. 

(Because we are the same, we have the previous life and experience the hardships?) 

Do people see them as friends? While Finn was thinking about this, he saw Erica in pain in his field of vision. “! Erika-sama!” 

When he rushed over to her, Erika was sweating as she held her chest with both hands. 

In such a state, she smiled and tried not to make Finn and the others uneasy. 

“I’m fine. I just get tired easily from lack of exercise.” 

“I see. But I guess we better go back.” 

He is concerned about Erika’s body and suggests that they go back. 

Then Erika turned her gaze toward Mia. 

“Is Mia-chan okay?” 

When she asks, Mia replies hurriedly. 

“Y-Yes! I’m feeling good today, I’m not in pain, I’m fine!” Brave looks around. 

[There are a lot of magical elements in this area. The concentration of magical elements is increasing because of the monsters they are killing. Isn’t this the best environment for Mia?] 

Finn’s eyes changed color when he heard that. 

“Is that true? So if we get this floating island, Mia won’t have to suffer.” 

“K-Knight-sama? It’s impossible to buy a floating island.” 

“No, if it’s for you I will earn as much money as I can!” 

Finn seriously considers getting this floating island, but Brave looks down and says that is not recommended. 

[It is useless. It’s thanks to the presence of the monsters. If we defeat them and they stop appearing, this place will be just like any other floating island.] You cannot live your daily life in an old castle where monsters exist. 

However, even if you exterminate them and create an environment, the concentration of magical elements will decrease and it will be meaningless. 

Finn’s shoulders dropped. 

“――I see” 

Holding Finn’s hands when he was down, Mia smiled at the proud knight who was pushing himself too hard for her own good. 

“Don’t worry about it. If I have Knight-sama, it is good enough for Mia. Also, Buu-kun.” “I’m treated like a bonus?!” 

While the three were smiling, Erika was also smiling and holding her chest. 

Then, she looks down and has a serious expression.
