The Epic Story of the Heroic Spirit of Emiya Giant Warrior

In Orario, the easiest way to make money, besides being an adventurer, is to sell yourself in the pleasure district. You can also gain wealth and status in the pleasure district—building connections with famous adventurers or executives of [Familia], and indirectly gaining some power.

Raul, these high-level adventurers, are the most desirable targets for prostitutes. As long as they establish a stable and intimate relationship with them, they can at least guarantee a few years of wealth and worry-free life. And if they can persuade a famous adventurer to "redeem" them, they will completely enter the "life winner group" in the future.

This is also one of the reasons why Raul and others are addicted to the pleasure district. The attitude of the prostitutes allows them to experience the "status" that is difficult to obtain in their own Familia.

The dressing culture of the magic power, and the style of the Disara region of the ocean country… These modern types of brothels have recently begun to make adventurers feel aesthetically tired, and they are gradually beginning to miss the mysterious desert style.

Raul thought to himself, obviously, his plan to save money to buy magic books failed again.

Raul didn't know how many times he made up his mind.

"Isn't this [Superb Husband] Raul-kun? Long time no see."

Standing in front of him is a male god with orange-yellow hair and eyes.

As soon as he took off the wide-brimmed hat with feathers on his head, his orange-yellow hair flowed down.

The Hermes Familia is not strong—at least the information registered with the Guild is like this, but this god has very good popularity.

The Loki Familia is also like this. Many elves need the help of the Hermes Familia to send letters to the Elven Village every year. Raul is very familiar with the Hermes Familia, especially this handsome male god.

It's not the first time for the two of them to meet in such a special place as the pleasure district. They smiled at each other, and there was a tacit understanding between them.

I saw the tall male god's eyes curved into crescent shapes, revealing a charming smile. He put on his wide-brimmed hat again, and the two feathers attached to the hat rustled in the night wind.

Hermes raised his head and stared at the vast night sky covering the entire pleasure district, and the gradually full moon shadow.

This mansion is located in the fifth district sandwiched between South Avenue and Southeast Avenue, and faces the [Loki Familia]'s main camp, the "Twilight Mansion," in the north of the city, named "Battlefield Wilderness."

"Goddess Freya, the [Ishtar Familia] is making moves."

The goddess sat on an elegant chair, her eyes moving away from the round table with wine and snacks.

"What are the details?"

"Around the headquarters in the pleasure district, the prostitutes seem to be acting abnormally, running around."

"I see, you can step back. Thank you, Herun."

Freya comforted the human member who came to report in place of Ottar, who had temporarily left the headquarters. She put her hand into the member's long hair and caressed her cheek lovingly.

Freya looked at the girl's back for a while, then turned to look at the huge map hanging on one side of the wall.

In a tavern just north of the pleasure district, [One-Eyed Blacksmith] Tsubaki, carrying the Tachi Red Shower, was drinking alone.

[The Strongest] Ottar is directing surveillance in Daedalus Street, which is adjacent to the red-light district.

And at the red-light district, according to the time, Hermes should have arrived. Freya hopes that He can investigate what Hephaestus, Astrea, and Mia are hiding, as agreed.

"These adventurers or gods are just supporting roles on the stage, and it is even possible that they will not actually appear."

The goddess's fragrant tongue lightly slid across her delicate lips. She tilted her head, holding her cheeks on both sides like holding flowers, and her eyes seemed to be filled with deep purple mist, her divine intention blurred and rippled.

The pleasure district's industry is not only run by the Ishtar Familia. Many small Familias or trading companies in the labyrinth city open brothels here, and there are also some "entrepreneurs" who have never joined any Familia.

Especially those upgraded combat prostitutes in the Ishtar Familia, even if you are just an un-upgraded Lv.1 lower-level adventurer or an ordinary person who has not received God's Grace, as long as they take a fancy to you and are rich enough, you will have the opportunity to kiss the beauty of a higher-level adventurer.

However, tonight, all the combat prostitutes above Lv.2 in the pleasure district are not on duty, which makes the guests feel deeply regretful.

In fact, tonight is the night of the full moon, and the combat personnel of the Ishtar Familia are preparing and rehearsing for the [Killing Stone] ceremony.

To start a war with the Freya Familia, the [Killing Stone] fragments engraved with the extremely powerful "Sorcery" of [Lucky Mallet] are essential.

In addition, they must also take the initiative to attack unexpectedly, and rely on magic swords, traps, curses and other means to weaken the first-level adventurers of the Freya Familia. Otherwise, even if all members temporarily undergo level sublimation, the Ishtar Familia will not have the opportunity to defeat the Freya Familia.

In fact, the opinions within the Ishtar Familia are not unified on whether to start a war with the Freya Familia.

Even if all members temporarily increase by one level, the Ishtar Familia only has one Lv.6 and one Lv.5 first-level adventurer, while the Freya Familia has three Lv.6 and four Lv.5, and there is even one Lv.7, the strongest in the city.

Unlike the Loki Familia, which is actually led by the captain and executives, the Ishtar Familia is completely centered on the goddess's wishes, and no member of the Familia can question or shake the goddess's will.

So even without Emiya, Aisha may eventually choose to abandon the path of the Ishtar Familia. It's just that with Emiya, Aisha, who doesn't have to bear the "main responsibility," is still a little more relaxed.

The goddess wants Haruhime to enjoy the nourishment of love in this last time—Haruhime fell in love with her first customer after she left the cabinet. This is not a secret in the Ishtar Familia, but rather a recent topic of conversation among the seniors.

Only a very few prostitutes can eventually be "redeemed" because of one of her customers. As for the situation where a girl and her first customer stay together from beginning to end, it has never happened since the goddess Ishtar descended to the lower world, and it is a "fairy tale" that no one has ever thought of.

In fact, Emiya is not really considered Haruhime's customer, because he has never given her money, not even a single Valis.

"This is a magic tool that will tell them where I am…"

"No matter where I go, I am always in the hands of Goddess Ishtar and the others. As long as I take a step out of the pleasure district, this necklace will make a sound, burn my neck, and make me unable to move, and pursuers from all sides will come to catch me."

"I am very honored to be able to serve you, Master. I have no regrets even if I die if I can give everything to you…"

"It's a little too early to say 'no regrets even if I die' now."

Emiya looked into the girl's eyes: "Haruhime, you don't need to worry. I can persuade Goddess Ishtar, and I will definitely take you away."

A tense alarm sounded throughout the pleasure district.

"Your Excellency, do you know what you are doing?"

Aisha asked in a low voice.

Emiya reached out and supported Haruhime's shoulder. He said: "Stealing the Amazons' 'Queen's Belt,' that's what I'm going to do."

Instead of saying those boring nonsense like "I hope you can let her go," "Are you going to sacrifice your family?" and "Such a war is meaningless," he directly declared—I'm going to take that girl away.

"Even Goddess Ishtar probably can't refute such an approach."

"According to your position, are you now going to stop me?"

Emiya asked.

Aisha: "As a sister, entrusting an adventurer to save her sister; and as an adventurer, resisting the enemy of the Familia, these are two different things."

Emiya nodded: "A reasonable approach."

"Haruhime, for my sake, use [Lucky Mallet]."

He said.

Then, Aisha watched helplessly as Haruhime used the magic [Lucky Mallet], and completely ignored her, without a moment's hesitation, directly applying it to Emiya.

Many courtesans who have gained backing live like queens of small countries.

Fierce courtesans come to this place dreaming of becoming phoenixes on high branches. Many, though without Familia, open their own shops.

Like adventurers, making a name for oneself in this labyrinth city is equivalent to gaining power. Many courtesans come to Orario with ambition, and girls in Chun Ji's situation are rare.

Therefore, even with the same spending, adventurers with fame and strength often receive more attentive, detailed, and considerate service.

On the wide streets where courtesans in various costumes come and go, there are architectural designs from the East or desert areas that are not seen near Orario. There are open-style oriental buildings upstairs, and heavy houses built of stone that are reminiscent of the cold north.

"The Familia is already preparing for the next expedition. I've been too obsessed with the pleasure quarter during this time, and all my money has been spent here..."

"Today is the last time. Starting tomorrow, I will train hard and kill monsters in the dungeon to save money..."

The speaker was a handsome male god.

"Ah, Lord Hermes."

Slender, of medium height, his limbs stretched straight under his traveling clothes. As expected of a god, his appearance is so perfect that there is nothing to say.

Raul: "Long time no see, Lord Hermes. You're back in Orario."

Because the Hermes Familia is a rare traveling Familia, other Familia in the city often need to entrust them with special tasks. For example, the Hephaestus Familia often needs the Hermes Familia to help purchase special materials from the city of swords.

"We plan to go to the [Pyramid] today. Does Hermes want to come with us?"

"Oh~ Raul, your goal today is the sisters smeared with gold powder. Although it is indeed tempting... but sorry, I already have an appointment with someone from the [Pleasure Quarter]."

"The wind is very restless tonight, it seems that something very interesting will happen."

Labyrinth City, South District.

Like a solemn mansion of a temple, even located in the bustling downtown area, it still has a courtyard and other spacious land, surrounded by high walls, the scene shows wealth, power and glory.

This is the base of one of the apexes of the city, the [Freya Familia].

Deep in this building, which is called [Silver Manor] because of its style like the bright moon in the sky, Freya sits in the center of the large hall, and a young girl from the Familia kneels in front of her.

"Monitor... is it Allen and them?"

"Yes, Ottar is directing surveillance from Daedalus Road, while Allen and the Gulliver brothers have infiltrated the pleasure quarter."

The girl froze for a moment, then trembled with emotion, her back shivering as she said, "You praise me too much," bowing her head. She lowered her head to hide her blushing face and hurried away.

A strategic map replicating all the landmarks of the labyrinth city Orario, with the "Pleasure Quarter" as the center, is engraved with numerous markers.

A coffee shop in the south, [Black Cat] Chloe, [Black Fist] Lunoire, and [Chariot's Half-Wheel] Anya are eating cake.

Inside the pleasure quarter, [Goddess's Chariot] Allen and the [Flame Gold Four Warriors] Gulliver brothers have entered it.

Freya doesn't know that Chun Ji has the magic of [Money Lender], but even if she knew, she wouldn't care too much.

Tonight, the real protagonists are only two people.

"Shirou, Ryu... I can't wait to see what kind of brilliance you can bloom."

Chapter 101 [The War God's Belt of Twelve Glories]

Some guests have already realized the anomaly in the pleasure quarter today.

The number of Amazon women has decreased... to be precise, the Ishtar Familia's "combat courtesans" seem to be absent from the pleasure quarter tonight.

As long as they follow the rules of the Ishtar Familia, anyone who is willing can add bricks and tiles to the construction of the pleasure quarter. However, compared to these small brothels, there is no doubt that Ishtar Familia's venues and practitioners have higher quality and professionalism.

Only in the labyrinth city, only in the Ishtar Familia's pleasure quarter, is there such an opportunity.

No one feels strange, this is also a common thing, most likely the Ishtar Familia is preparing for a large-scale expedition.

The main job of the combat courtesans is ultimately adventurers, and the work of courtesans is just their sideline to entertain themselves.

If there are no accidents, after completing the [Sesshouseki] ritual under the moonlight tomorrow, the day they go to war with the city's strongest Freya Familia will not be far away, so even if it is a rehearsal, the combat courtesans are particularly nervous.

In addition to the [Sesshouseki], the goddess Ishtar seems to have prepared some unknown trump cards to deal with the [Fierce One] Ottar, a strong man standing at the top of the city, but the specific situation is still unknown to the female warriors.

For example, [Lije] Aisha, she is a firm opponent. Not only because she doesn't want Chun Ji to be sacrificed, but also because reason tells her that the result of going to war with the Freya Familia will only be the complete destruction of the Ishtar Familia, whether there is [Sesshouseki] or not, this result is destined.

The gap is too big, too obvious, and there are actually not a few rational people like Aisha in the Ishtar Familia. But unfortunately, the goddess of the Familia has been completely blinded by jealousy, and they cannot change the goddess Ishtar's mind.

The result is that Aisha and others in the Ishtar Familia who maintain rationality and realize that they are on the road to destruction are clearly suffering, while those fanatical and stupid madmen who only follow the goddess to shout and kill live easily.

The Ishtar Familia's gathering today to prepare for the [Sesshouseki] ritual, Chun Ji, as the protagonist of the ritual, did not participate. Considering that this would probably be the last day of her life, the goddess Ishtar generously and considerately gave her a day off.

For the experienced female adventurers of the Ishtar Familia, this kind of situation is actually not the first time they have seen it. There will indeed be girls who are new to the world who will develop special feelings for the guests in that kind of environment, and they will often grow up because of the shattering of this so-called "love".

Because he is the one who is actually "hired", he is the adventurer who has taken on the task.

In the Tenshukaku at the highest point of the Pleasure Quarter, Chun Ji gently raised her chin, revealing the black choker on her slender neck.

"Even if you want to damage it, the choker will immediately send out an emergency signal."

Chun Ji said, touching the surface of the black ring that emitted a strange light with her finger.

"So, I can't go with you, Master."

The girl lowered her head: "I was very happy when you said you wanted to 'redeem' me before, but... the goddess Ishtar will not agree."

Emiya's finger gently pressed on Chun Ji's lips, interrupting her words, while the other hand grabbed the side of the choker.

[Skill [Knight Does Not Die With Empty Hands] activated]

He dominated and destroyed the choker.

The door of the Tenshukaku was kicked open, and [Lije] Aisha walked in with a calm face. As Chun Ji's "guardian", she did not participate in the Ishtar Familia's gathering.

"You just said you wanted to 'snatch' her from the beginning, it's really speechless, a male's way of doing things. Hee," Aisha's mouth raised: "You really understand us 'Amazons'."

That's how it should be, arrogantly declaring war, brutally defeating the enemy, and then greedily taking the girl away... From the beginning, Aisha was looking forward to such a thing.

Aisha said, raising the black sword in her hand, the blade facing Emiya.

Clearly, the beginning of everything was Aisha entrusting him to save Chun Ji, but now, she is the first to stand in front of Emiya.

"And, as an Amazon, I still want to feel the determination of a man (male) from fists and weapons."

"This fox who forgets friends when seeing beautiful women..."

Aisha couldn't help thinking, but in the next moment, she didn't even have the mind to complain about the lecherous fox.

"Projection, start (Trace, On)"
