My Daughter Left the Nest and Returned an S-Rank Adventurer (Manga)

Retired adventurer Belgrieve thought he was done with excitement...but his peaceful life is upended when he discovers a baby abandoned in the nearby woods. As her adoptive father, he teaches his new daughter Angeline everything he knows about the adventuring life—a past he had thought long forgotten after he lost his leg in battle. Angeline idolizes her father and wants to follow in his footsteps, so she leaves home for the big city. As the years pass, she ascends the ranks, eventually becoming renowned as an S-Rank adventurer: the Black-Haired Valkyrie. But it turns out that being the best comes with its own struggles, and she can barely catch her breath between battling fiends. With everyone turning to her for rescue, can Ange get out ahead of each new disaster and finally reunite with her beloved dad?

Angeline’s beloved father Belgrieve still awaits her return in their homeland of Turnera, and her longing to join him there grows with each passing day. Unfortunately, owing to her position as an S-Rank adventurer, her plans are halted at every turn by urgent request after urgent request. With countless trials standing between father and daughter, will the two ever be reunited? Finally, the source of this mass fiend outbreak comes to light, and Angeline faces the source of her troubles head-on. Can Angeline conquer the root of all her troubles and make her way home, or will this foe prove stronger than even an S-Rank adventurer?

After defeating every obstacle in her path, Angeline has finally returned to her hometown of Turnera. She spends her time relaxing with her party members and her beloved father, reveling in the peace and comfort of her childhood home. But not all is well. The future only holds ever-increasing danger for Angeline. Belgrieve fears for his daughter’s safety as an S-Rank adventurer called to battle the fiercest of foes...including demons themselves. And now worshippers of the Archmage Solomon—creator of all demons—have appeared in Orphen. Is this a sign of dark things to come?

Ange and her friends stop in Bordeaux, home to Seren, Sasha, and Helvetica, on routine business. However, they couldn't have chosen a worse time, as the town is under threat by malevolent forces: a power-grabbing noble and a mysterious child who wields dark miracles. Things come to a head when the party’s visit is thrown into chaos by an army of undead fiends! Beset on two fronts, the S-Rank party must fight to defend nobles and townsfolk alike—and the fate of House Bordeaux hangs in the balance.

The assault on House Bordeaux continues with a fresh wave of terror. Count Malta has concocted a deplorable new plot—one that could bring Bordeaux to its knees. Meanwhile, his helper, Charlotte, launches an attack of her own and strikes at the heart of Bordeaux’s defenses. With nothing as it first appears, the party struggles to face their foes. Can Belgrieve and Ange see through the enemy’s deceptions and save House Bordeaux from destruction?

The sleepy backwater of Turnera is shocked by the sudden appearance of Graham, a legendary swordsman known as the Elven Paladin. But what could such an illustrious character be doing in Turnera? The answer: tracking down a runaway elven princess. This warrior princess tests her mettle against demons—and Graham sensed such a creature near the peaceful little town. Having a daughter of his own, Belgrieve wants to help find the girl and protect his home however he can. Meanwhile, Ange has rediscovered two old foes, Charlotte and Byaku. But her vengeance is cut short when she finds herself on the run from a new enemy: the mysterious order known as the Inquisition.

With the party split, Angeline finds herself protecting Byaku and Charlotte—her former enemies—without her father, Belgrieve, by her side. Forces are intent on manipulating Charlotte or silencing her, and Ange has to use her wits and her S-Rank strength to keep her new little sister safe. Meanwhile, the very forest Belgrieve calls home begins warping under an ominous influence. He teams up with Marguerite, an elven princess, to neutralize the threat—but the two butt heads over how to deal with the mysterious child at the center of it all. Can this innocent-seeming child really be a demon? And is there any way to avoid slaying such a foe? One misstep, and Turnera could be destroyed...
