Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs (Light Novel) Vol. 6
THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
Leon may have saved Noelle from a life in chains, but her future is far from certain. Bound as she is to the Sacred Tree Sapling, she is a prize for every nation in the world. Worse, Leon's fiancees disagree over her fate: does Noelle have a responsibility to serve a nation, or should she be free to choose how she lives her life? Meanwhile, Noelle's own villainess, Louise, faces the same dire question. It seems the Sacred Tree has demanded a sacrifice in exchange for continuing to protect the Republic--and it wants Louise. It's up to Leon to intervene before all the women in his life succumb to the dark fates the otome game demands.

I got a little bored at the end
I felt like the climax for Noel's rescue combined with the climax for the second rescue of the other girl or too close together and felt repetitive. I'm not sure what they could have done to make it feel less repetitive but still wrap up the loose ends adequately. It's a tough choice, but needless to say, it did leave me feeling bored. After taking a break from reading I was able to go back in and push through the pirate fight. The sad thing was that the events of the pirate fight itself were boring to read as well! Considering this was the finale to the volume, it left room to be desired. Still, it wasn't the worst I've ever read so I feel like only one star removal for boredom is fair. The amount that was boring was a very small amount in comparison to the interesting bits. It's just the timing of the boredom was unfortunate.

for this bit beginning of ch2 , i feel like Levia could better handled both men. Emile wasnt such easy route after all, wasnt so easy to be squeezed. but i think Levia could spend equal time with Serge and Emile, and create a little reverse harem. She could take both men, and make good memory with them both. she could better handled the situation

Chapter 2:
Serge
BY THE TIME Lelia returned home, it was already almost the middle of winter break. She was living with her fiancé, Emile, and he was worried sick since she had been gone for so long.
“Lelia, what’s this about you adventuring in a dungeon?!” Emile demanded.
Annoyed, Lelia coldly replied, “I told you I would be going to a dungeon during break.”
“But you never told me how serious a venture it would be!” Emile had apparently misunderstood the scale of the operation. Now that he knew how dangerous her adventure had been, he wanted answers. “Why did you do something so risky? You’re living a comfortable life now. You don’t need the money, right?”
“I already told you. I had a good reason for going.”
Lelia wouldn’t tell him the specifics, so naturally, Emile couldn’t accept her actions. While they bickered, Ideal suddenly appeared out of nowhere and floated beside Lelia.
“A pleasure to meet you, Mr. Emile. My name is Ideal. I serve Miss Lelia, as her spaceshi—oh, pardon me. I mean, her airship.”
Emile gawked at the robot. “A-airship? With that tiny body?”
“Oh, no. My real body is elsewhere. I was fortunate enough to be able to venture outside thanks to Miss Lelia when she came to find me with her companion, Mr. Serge. Ahh, truly, I am so grateful to them.”
“Huh? You were with Serge?”
Lelia snatched the floating ball from the air, trying to stop him before he could blabber any further. “Y-you! What are you doing out here?!”
“I simply thought I could rectify the misunderstanding if I explained the situation personally.”
“I-Idiot!” Lelia snapped. “I told you not to show yourself!”
“Pardon? I believe you specifically said I should ‘hide myself for a bit,’ the ‘bit’ being the key part here.”
As Lelia reflected on her mistake and made a mental note to give him more specific directions next time, she turned her gaze to Emile. She hesitated, unsure of how to explain things, which only made his expression turn more severe.
“Lelia, I want answers! Why were you with Serge?!” he shouted.
Lelia was shocked. Emile was always so deferential that she’d never expected he would get angry.
“S-so what? What’s wrong with that, huh? I needed him to get through this dungeon, so I had him help me. That’s all.”
“You never told me you’d be alone with another man! You realize we are engaged, yes?”
These words made her once more recall how she’d turned down Serge’s offer during their trip, choosing instead to be with Emile. That only made her more irritated with Emile for doubting her.
You’re seriously going to suspect me of two-timing when I specifically said no to Serge? Lelia’s voice rose even louder than Emile’s as she shouted, “Nothing happened between us! And more importantly, do you plan on interrogating me every time I do anything? Stop getting so jealous just because I have a guy friend!”
“Of course I’m going to get jealous. Of all people, you really had to go with Serge? Do you think I don’t know how he feels about you?”
Lelia’s eyes narrowed, and her voice dropped low. “What? So you don’t trust me?”
Emile’s shoulders trembled. “N-no. That’s not what I mean.” He could never handle pushback.
Lelia had thought Emile would give up the first time she deflected, but he was being more stubborn than usual. She chalked it up to coincidence and gave it no more thought.
“Anyway,” she said, “this conversation is over. End of discussion. Got it?”
“R-right.”
With that out of the way, she turned her attention back to Ideal. “As for you! Don’t you dare show yourself in front of people again without my permission!”
“My deepest apologies. I didn’t give it proper thought. I assure you, it won’t happen again.”
Lelia couldn’t keep scolding him after that, not when he seemed so repentant. After all, her instructions hadn’t been entirely clear. There was no point continuing the conversation.
“I’m going to my room now,” Lelia announced before marching off, leaving Emile and Ideal behind.

Really good cliff hanger
The book offer all was very good. The cliff hammer at the end, I did not see coming. Also the AI cleare in the bonus chapter is a little terrifying in the way she's can change someone without them realizing it.

another great read!
This book was a really good book! It was also real page turner! It had me in different points, I was excited all the way through. Good use of storytelling in character design. Really good book! Way to take the story to the next level.

The way the author handles Noelle is clunky at best. And the Yuri elements feels forced for the purpose of fan service and was entirely unnecessary for the plot given Angie and Livia's relationship with leon. This is def the weakest book so far.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

Great volume
A lot of twists and turns in this one. Leon's attraction grows with Louise now softening up to him. But boy was it touch and go for a while there. Looking forward to reading the next volume.

Damn, that's the last officially translated volume, now I get to find out how bad the fan translations are for future installments. Who knows, maybe they'll shock me and be well done.

Current arc isn't as fun as early novels and I'm ready to move on from the Republic. At least Angie and Livia were involved this time. Also, why are there so many random reincarnations?

I enjoyed the first books in the series, but now on the 6th I've had enough. It's become boring, the hero doesn't evolve at all, everything is predictable, and the attempt to bring more characters to the forefront fails miserably.
I think this is the last book in the series for me, the others that will be translated are of no interest to me anymore.

Un volumen leve comparado a anteriores (y esos que los dos anteriores no fueron la gran cosa), pero que sigue siendo disfrutable, este volumen es otro más de preparación para el gran final del segundo juego así que tengo espectativas acerca del final y saber cómo continuará la historia, el tercer volumen le dio un final espectacular al primer juego y espero que suceda igual aquí.
