History Literature / MyDaughterLeftTheNestAndReturnedAnSRankAdventurer

* DaddysGirl: Ange '''adores''' her father to the point she buffs up his abilties and reputation in her mind which she in turns tells anyone in earshot, becoming moody and throwing a tantrum when her vacation plans to visit him are interrupted.

* KnightInSourArmor: Ange is this a lot in the first arc, as she wants nothing more than to visit her father, a goal that is being constantly stymied due to a combination of a recent uptick in dangerous monsters and the resignation of multiple other adventurers due to increasing demands of the guild in response to said monsters. Despite her constant grumbling about the situation (including complaining to the guild master about how poorly they seem to be handling the situation), it apparently never occurs to her to just quit and move to another guild herself. When asked by other adventurers (including the guild master) about this, she simply responds that she was taught by her father that it was [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility natural for strong adventurers to help those weaker than themselves]], and that he wouldn't approve of her abandoning those who needed her for the sake of her own desires. Upon hearing this, the adventurers present praise Belgraive as a great man (the guild master being ''especially'' thankful, considering the dire straits Orphen would have been in without Ange).

[[TimeSkip Fast forward 17 years]] and Angeline, or Ange, lives in the city of Orphen as a S-ranked adventurer and celebrated as the "Black Haired War Maiden" and the city's "guardian deity". But she doesn't care much for any of that, the only thing she wants after five years is a little time off to return home and see her father. Fate, however, seems determined to prevent that as circumstances again and again conspire to throw problems only Ange can handle.

* HumbleHero: Belgrieve is definitely this, mostly in his embarrassment over people gushing over his (supposed) abilties and is never tempted to use the misconception for his own advantages. This also works the other way as Belgrieve ''is'' more skilled than he believes due to his age and handicap, just not nearly to the level his daughter makes him out to be.

* ShipperOnDeck: Ange eventually grows to realize that A.) moms are cool, and that B.) she doesn't have a mom because Belgrieve never actually settled down and got married. Her response is to ''bride hunt'' for her father without his permission, pestering women and obsessing over the idea of trying to find someone that's a good fit for him. [[spoiler:She has no idea that he ''did'' pine for someone that was an UnrequitedLove.]]

* WhenYouComingHomeDad: Generationally {{inverted}} and {{Downplayed}} After leaving the village and not being home for 5 years, Ange and Belgrieve miss each other, though Ange is much more vocal (i.e. childish) than her father about it, and look forward to one day seeing each other. The first arc is basically Ange working to get the time off to go home for a visit only for circumstances to conspire to prevent this from happening.

* CorruptChurch: [[spoiler:A sect of the Church is interested in trying to "revive the Demon Lords" and effectively act as a lightweight equivalent to a satanic cult, trying to trick people into their control to help further their agendas. They're even willing to prop up ChildSoldiers to do it, giving an orphaned young girl dark magic to work as a money-fleecing face of the effort while giving her a bodyguard of an older boy who's ready to kill anyone -- or himself -- to protect her for their mission. Who they then try to assassinate when the pair end up [[NiceJobFixingItVillain exposing them more than they wanted.]] Ange stumbling into their plot ends up with her DefusingTheTykeBomb for both of them and exposing this sect ''entirely'', causing some massive political upheaval as the Pope and the whole of the church have to deal with the fallout of it; it's ambiguous if the rest is in the know and corrupt as well or if the sect was acting in isolation.]]

* EldritchAbomination: Later in the story, entities known as "Demon Lords" appear that can seemingly drive all the local fauna to mad survival as wild monsters and become a WalkingWasteland due to being [[PowerIncontinence unable to control their powers]], and short of them being born from darkness and magic, no one [[spoiler:but the Corrupt Church]] actually knows what their deal is beyond being considered so dangerous that they must be killed to maintain world order. [[spoiler:Belgrieve ends up pitying a small child Demon Lord and adopting him to Orphen, only for circumstances to gradually reveal that [[HistoryRepeats this is exactly what he did with Ange seventeen years ago]], effectively ''[[HumanityIsInfectious taming Demon Lords]]'' by the kindness of his heart.]]

Belgrieve, like many young men, dreamed of fame and fortune as an Adventurer but had his career tragically cut short when he loses his leg on an early mission. Retiring to the country, Belgrieve meeks out a living protecting the village from monsters and collecting herbs content with his peaceful, but solitary, existence. Then one day he hears the cries of a baby, finding an abandoned child deep in the woods.

* MemeticBadass: InUniverse. Ange loves to gush about her father and how she was never able to beat him in a fight and gives him the moniker "[[RedBaron Red Ogre]]", her enthusiasm and earnest attitude makes it easy for people to believe Ange's claims. It doesn't help that people who do meet him end up misinterpreting his abilties due to lucky circumstances and his attempts to correct them makes Belgrieve appear as a HumbleHero.
