The World of Otome Games is Tough For Mobs - Volume 9 - Chapter 2.3

Part 3
◇

An old building in the royal capital.

Coming down the stairs that led to the basement was a bearded man resembling a knight named "Gabino" sent from the Holy Kingdom of Rachelle.

Although he behaved with pride, he was concerned that he had a scar on the right side of forehead.

He tried to hide it with the hair that hung from him, but it was still visible.

With his favorite pocket watch in his left hand, he occasionally opened the lid without checking the time.

Gabino was previously dispatched to the Alzer Republic and cooperated with the side that carried out the coup.

Leon blocked Rachelle's Holy Kingdom plot, but Gabino was sent to the Kingdom of Holfault.

When he appeared in the dimly lit underground room, he greeted the guests with reverence.

"I'm sorry I kept you waiting, ladies."

The women in the basement were in a good mood as they smiled at the old but handsome Gabino.

"you’re just in time, Gabino. But I wish you had arrived a little earlier."

"I beg your pardon."

In the room where they were, the wall was decorated with a flag indicating which are from the Forest of the Ladies.

The Forest of the Ladies was an organization formed by a group of noble women from the kingdom at a time when there was a strong tendency to respect women more than to men.

The women, in their worn dresses, continued to maintain their noble demeanor.

Before they had beautiful slaves, but now they looked after their own children and the women of lower category who belonged to the same organization.

There were also ranks in the Forest of Ladies, at the bottom was a noble woman whose husband is a country baron.

The women who were now by the wall were the current executives of the Forest of Women who took care of everything.

Among them was the figure of "Zola".

After being disowned by Leon's father Barkas during the war with the Principality, she tried to escape but an airship fell on her house and then was stripped of being noble and she had nowhere else to go, so she was picked up by the Forest of Ladies.

However, she was used as a servant, and the clothes she wore were not dresses, but simple clothes that commoners wear.

Gabino visited the Forest of the Ladies Who Lived Underground and made his subordinates bring back some memories.

They brought several boxes with liquor, sweets, beautiful dresses and other items for ladies.

"All these gifts are for you."

"Wow, you're very considerate!"

Executive women reached out to the memories and fought for them.

As he looked at them, Gabino began to speak.

"By the way, ladies ...... Do you think you can ever get your rights back?"

When they heard about a reintegration, the executives of forest of the ladies raised their faces.

Their expressions were tinged with hatred for the kingdom that abandoned them, and although they looked scary enough, Gabino didn't break his smile.

The representative of the Ladies' Forest looked at her dress in her hands to see if it fit well.

Just as she was, she spoke to Gabino.

-It's hard. We have already buried many people, but there is no sign that the kingdom will be shaken. His Majesty remains the same, and the foreign fox who has been taken in by His Majesty seems to move as she pleases.

By foreign fox they meant Milaine, who is essentially the pillar of the Kingdom of Holfault.

She was also a troublesome opponent for Gabino.

After all, Gabino's homeland, Rachelle's Holy Kingdom, has been in conflict. for a long time with Milaine homeland , Repard's UK.

The Kingdom of Holfault and the United Kingdom of Repard have a strong alliance because Milaine was an excellent link between them.

Therefore,  the Forest of the Ladies has been taught that Milaine is the one who has undermined the condition of women.

"It's a nuisance. Also, she has the Marquis of Baltfault as a pawn. If he wasn't there we would not be living this way."

When Gabino said that, one of the women by the wall had a look of hate.

"Oh, is something wrong, Miss Zola?"

"N-No, it's nothing."

When Gabino spoke again, Zola turned around.

However, the surrounding women looked closely at Zola.

"That Demon Knight grew up in your house."

"If only you had raised him better."

"You are a really useless woman."

They took out their frustration at being in this situation thanks to Zola. For them, Zola was treated like an outlet for their stress.

Then, Gabino spoke gently to Zola.

"Let's all calm down. The sooner we overthrow the Queen and the Marquis, the sooner we can take back our lives. To that end, the Holy Kingdom of Rachelle will fully support you."

The representative smiled at Gabino's words.

"Rachelle has really chivalrous and wonderful people.In return I wonder why are the men of the kingdom so pathetic  now. It's really sad."

Gabino took the representative's hand and smiled. The representative blushed at his smile .

"There will be an opportunity soon. In that case, ladies, please help us."

"Y-Yes, but is this safe?"

When the rep showed her anxiety about when the time would come, Gabino encouraged her strongly to dispel it .

"I am sure we will succeed. And I have a strong ace up my sleeve here too. No ,we will not be defeated even by that Evil Knight."

Hearing that a powerful ace up his sleeve could defeat Leon, The Forest of Ladies were so excited .

Seeing that, Gabino murmured in his heart.

(We need you to work for Rachelle as much as you can. Since we brought out the knight with magic armor, we have to do a lot of damage to the kingdom.)
