Chapter 241: Chapter 240: Magic Mystic Code [Dangerous Beast]
[Grand Saber]; the direct reason why the gods decided on this title, was that one strike with which Emiya slew the lake monster "Lochness."
The sword light pierced through the whole of [Falling Moon Lake], cutting apart the waters, stirring up an upside-down waterfall hundreds of meters tall. The sword aura, as bright as moonlight, left a flashing trail across the lake’s surface, and wherever it passed, the ancient beast’s bones, hard as iron, were all severed, the cuts smooth as a mirror.
This scene was seen from afar by some, and gradually, rumors began spreading from the mouths of bards, until even the gods of Orario heard about it.
Gods who had seen the "Afterglow" belonging to Hera’s and Zeus’s familias weren’t shaken in their worldview by it, but they were still astonished.
However, speaking of it, Emiya’s new title could have also been [Saber] without issue. The gods choosing [Grand Saber] had another reason.
That was, Emiya’s expedition team in the subjugation of Gugalanna.
"Other than him, it’s all beautiful girls."
"It’s totally like an emperor’s parade."
"Damn ’webnovel protagonist’."
"Ugh, I’m so jealous."
The male gods wept blood tears.
"I still really like Shirou-kun, but isn’t this a little too unfaithful?"
"As fans, it’s kind of heartbreaking."
"And Shirou-kun’s marriage prospects are all lower-world girls, completely ignoring us goddesses."
Many goddesses were unhappy about it too.
The goddess Hephaestus did her best to veto the title [Female Slayer], but that was all she could manage.
"Damn it, [Grand Saber] must be surrounded by beautiful girls right now, enjoying emperor treatment," That was what many male gods thought.
And truthfully, that was indeed the case.
———
[Grand Saber], upon learning of his new title, accepted everyone’s congratulations, then they set off for the next city.
"Senior Friana, may I ask what your plans are next?", Emiya asked along the way.
Friana: "We’ll regroup with the [School District] at the port city in the neighboring country. Until then, we’ll be traveling the same route as you."
Emiya nodded, "Speaking of which, those girls..."
He looked at the nervous girls trailing carefully behind Friana, so tense they seemed about to collapse.
For these students, suddenly being surrounded by so many first-class adventurers, the pressure was indeed too much.
"Ah, they’re some of my students. Go ahead and introduce yourselves. Natalinoe, you’re their senior, start from you."
"Y-yes!", The human girl stammered in reply to Friana’s instruction.
"I-I’m Natalinoe Cladfield, just call me Nano!"

Although she was their "senior," her body was the smallest, her flowing golden-red hair swayed softly as she moved. Nervous yet full of energy, Nano introduced herself.
"My occupation is mage, my level is Lv.3. I really admire the world’s number one mage, Lady Riveria, so it’s an honor to meet... gya," The girl bit her tongue, making Riveria chuckle.
But Lv.3, that was what Emiya and the others noted.
For a student, that number was rather amazing.
"I’m Mililia Soltz, Lv.2."

After Nano, the elf girl who looked like a noble’s daughter spoke.
A wand hung at her waist, a longbow strapped on her back, matching the typical image of an elf.
"Um, my dream is to become someone like Lady Alicia, a pure, upright, elegant, and strong elf!", The girl gathered her courage, speaking loudly.
"...Who?", Everyone turned their gaze toward Alicia.
’Pure, upright, elegant, strong... leaving the rest aside, isn’t the "pure" part a bit wrong?’
At this point, Alicia’s true nature was already thoroughly exposed.
However, Alicia still proudly puffed out her chest and smiled elegantly at the girl.
"That’s right, I am the ’pure, upright, elegant, strong’ elf!", Her eyes seemed to be declaring such words.
After the elf girl, a half-elf girl spoke.
"My name is Nina Tulle, Lv.2," She had slightly pointed ears, long chestnut hair tied into a ponytail with a ribbon, and a tuft of emerald hair between her bangs.

"Tulle?", Emiya instinctively looked over and immediately noticed the emerald eyes identical to a certain Guild employee’s.
Emiya: "By any chance, are you related to Miss Eina Tulle..."
"Eina is my elder sister."
Eina Tulle, the Guild’s most popular half-elf receptionist. He hadn’t expected to meet her younger sister here.
Riveria smiled gently at Nina, who nervously bowed in return.
Eina and Nina’s mother, Aina Tulle, was from a side branch of the elven royal family and Riveria’s chamberlain, also her childhood companion who grew up with her.
Twenty-seven years ago, dissatisfied with the suffocating life of the royal family, Riveria escaped the elven village together with her trusted retainer Aina Tulle.
"Though we’ve always kept in touch by letters, it’s been many years since we last met. Nina, how is your mother’s health now?", Riveria asked.
Four years after they left Alf’s Forest, Aina fell ill due to incompatibility with foreign air, an inherited condition that only adapted to the village of the elven royal family.
Loki believed that not even the gods’ blessing could cure such an illness. There was even the possibility of it becoming a skill through mutation, like Hera Familia’s Alfia, leaving it permanently etched into the body, beyond any cure.
So Aina could only recuperate by living in a free city with air similar to her homeland, where she met Eina’s father (fifty years her junior).
Riveria had met Eina as a child, but this was her first time meeting Nina.
"Mm, my mother’s health is much better now."
The last of Friana’s students was a purple-haired human girl, a Lv.1 mage.
Since Friana herself was busy working as a magic item maker, and because of her personality, she had no formal class. But the most talented magic students in the [School District] could seek her guidance.
"Before returning to the [School District], there’s still some time. You should talk with your seniors. Whether as reference for your future choices or for guidance, you’ll surely gain a lot."
For students of the [School District], joining a top familia like Lefiya had was one of the most ideal futures. For these children, this was indeed a good chance.

Not long after, they arrived at the nearest city and planned to stay overnight.
Aki smoothly located the largest local merchant guild and directly booked an entire inn.
"As celebration for the successful dragon-slaying, tonight I’ll cook and host a banquet," Entering the inn, Emiya announced.
Aki: "Wonderful."
Anya: "Yay, nya!"
Chloe: "Long live Shirou, nya!"
The catgirl trio licked their lips, eagerly anticipating the feast.
The elf girls also licked their lips, though looking forward to the nightfall instead.
———
"The cat can’t eat anymore, nya~", Late at night, Anya lay sprawled in a starfish pose in her soft bed, muttering dream-talk.
Tonight’s city was near a small mountain, so the dishes Emiya made for the banquet were mountain specialties: delicious mushroom soup, chewy mountain beast roast, rare grilled fowl skewers, and river fish stewed with pickled vegetables from the clear stream.
All these dishes were catgirl favorites, and many of the ingredients were hard to find even in Orario. So Anya was especially satisfied tonight.
"Mi-nya~", At that moment, a sound that made her fur stand on end entered her ears.
Anya shuddered awake from her dream.
"Eek! Who’s making such a sappy cry, Nya?"
It was practically a cat in heat. No, actually, even normal catgirls, no matter how flustered, wouldn’t make such a sound.
"Th-too indecent, nya!", Anya blushed, pulled the covers over herself, and clamped her hands tightly over her ears.
But to catgirls, that sound was unbearably sharp, piercing straight through even blocked ears, drilling right into them.
"Nya, what a terrifying she-cat, and there’s more than one," Anya trembled all over.
"Th-this is bad... hearing such cries, even cats will... wait!", She sat up from bed, face red.
"This sound... it’s coming from Shirou’s room," Realizing that, Anya froze in shock.
Aki and Chloe, the other two catgirls in the team, floated into her mind.
"Th-they actually dared to steal a bite... even though cats endure so painfully...", Anya collapsed onto her bed, eyes glazed, hips unconsciously arching.
Meanwhile, Aki curled into a ball under her covers, "Those two shameless cats, ugh..."
Chloe rolled restlessly on the floor, "Nya, it must be Anya and that Loki Familia cat..."
Anya & Aki & Chloe: "Damn cheating cats!"

[Inside Emiya’s Room]
Riveria, wearing a mystic code called [Dangerous Beast], spoke in a trembling voice, "Alicia, where did you even find this kind of outfit, nya..."
Alicia: "Riveria-sama is too cute, nya, this cat can’t take it anymore, nya~"
Ryuu: "Shirou, do you like it, nya?"
