Nami was clearly shocked.
"A Warlord of the Sea? Empress Boa Hancock? The most beautiful woman in the world?"
She didn't know who Luffy was.
But she knew exactly who the Empress was.
That title wasn't for show.
So who exactly was that guy Luffy, to be able to win over someone like her?
Are male protagonists all like this?
Their targets are either goddesses or empresses?
Loki couldn't help asking, "The most beautiful woman in the world? Is that for real? Is she prettier than Ais?"
Issho, who had been quietly lurking, thought for a moment.
Then he sent a picture.
"This is Empress Boa Hancock. Even an old man like me would be tempted if I were a few decades younger."
Loki glanced at it a few times.
"She's very beautiful, but I still think Ais-tan is the prettiest."
Emiya rolled his eyes.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That's all this is."
"You bastard," Loki snapped. "Are you saying Ais-tan isn't beautiful?"
Emiya pursed his lips.
"I didn't say that. I just said beauty is subjective. Ais is beautiful, but Boa Hancock isn't bad either. You can only say they each have their own strengths."
He added calmly, "And it's not like Ais is the most beautiful in the world either. Is Hestia not beautiful? Is Hephaestus not good-looking? And Riveria's appearance is so good that even goddesses would be jealous, okay?"
Hestia immediately spoke up.
"As expected of Emiya. You always tell the truth."
She was very satisfied.
Hephaestus hadn't expected that, in Emiya's eyes, she counted as a great beauty.
It caught her off guard.
But she quickly calmed down.
"Say, Emiya," Hephaestus said, "are you trying to conquer me with sweet talk?"
At that moment, Tsubaki, the captain of the Hephaestus Familia, also spoke.
"My goddess is indeed very beautiful. She's not inferior to any goddess."
That was her honest opinion.
Riveria pressed her temples.
"Please don't include me."
Loki immediately made a scene.
"I don't care. My Ais is the best-looking."
Ais suddenly appeared.
"Loki, you're annoying."
"What-no, Ais!!"
Riveria saw where this was going and quickly changed the topic.
"Loki aside, I'm more curious about how many couples you've broken up, Emiya."
Emiya: "..."
Can we not talk about this?
Hephaestus leaned in as well.
"I'm curious too. Besides Erina Nakiri, Haruhi Suzumiya, and Hestia, who else is there?"
Illya suddenly chimed in.
"If I remember correctly, Shirou Emiya and Rin should count too."
Hephaestus recalled those scenes and nodded thoughtfully.
"That does sound like a couple. Anyone else?"
"There's no one else," Emiya said quickly. "You make it sound like I'm some professional couple-breaker."
He wasn't doing it on purpose.
Why were they so obsessed with this?
Akemi Miyano laughed and joined in.
"Then do Kudo and my sister count?"
Emiya didn't panic at all.
Instead, he felt calm.
Almost amused.
"What are you talking about? Shinichi and Ran were a couple from the beginning. What does your sister have to do with it?"
Akemi replied playfully, "Aren't there Conan x Ai shippers too?"
Emiya refused to acknowledge that.
"Shinichi x Ran are the winners. What do Conan x Ai shippers have to do with anything?"
Akemi continued.
"Then what about me and Shuichi?"
Emiya replied impatiently.
"What's your relationship? Don't you know it yourself? And can we stop this already? Is it really that interesting?"
Hephaestus narrowed her eyes.
"Are you feeling guilty?"
Emiya instinctively shrank back.
He was a little guilty.
But there was no way he'd show it.
"Guilty of what? I'm upright and righteous. What's there to feel guilty about?"
"I never intended to break anyone up. All of this was just a series of unfortunate events."
By the end, he almost convinced himself.
"Is that so?" Hephaestus asked.
"Of course," Emiya said firmly.
"Take Erina for example. She chose not to be with Yukihira Soma after seeing the plot. Is that my fault?"
"I never stole anyone's love."
"And I would never touch a minor. Am I not the one being wronged here?"
Erina Nakiri: ...
Objectively speaking, Emiya wasn't wrong.
But for some reason, she felt deeply despised by him.
Which made her very unhappy.
She was a super beautiful girl, after all.
Emiya continued.
"And Haruhi Suzumiya. She's the one who didn't go looking for Kyon. What does that have to do with me?"
Haruhi spoke up calmly.
"Kyon is just an ordinary person. Of course he's not as attractive as someone like you, who came from another world."
She had never been interested in ordinary people to begin with.
If Emiya hadn't appeared, she would've followed the original path.
Met Kyon.
Ended up with him.
But Emiya did appear.
So even knowing the plot, she had no interest in Kyon anymore.
It was probably just a matter of timing.
Emiya added, "As for Hestia... fine. I admit that part was my fault."
"I shouldn't have let Loki see the plot."
He felt no guilt about Erina or Haruhi.
They had made their choices willingly.
He hadn't done anything malicious.
But with Hestia, he hadn't stopped Loki.
And because of that, Hestia missed Bell Cranel without knowing anything.
That was the part that bothered him.
Hestia didn't care at all.
"You don't need to feel guilty. That's all Loki's fault. And you helped me too, so I'm very grateful."
Loki immediately jumped in.
"That's great, Emiya. Now if you confess to Hestia, you might actually succeed. You should thank me properly."
Emiya went silent.
"...I don't just want to thank you. I want to thank your ancestors too."
Loki sent a few confused images.
"That's a problem. I don't have that many ancestors."
Emiya: "..."
As expected of the god of mischief.
Truly infuriating.
Hestia couldn't stand it anymore and fired back.
"As expected of Loki. Still shameless."
Loki remained calm.
"That's a compliment, Hest-Greenia."
Hestia exploded.
"It's Hestia, you bastard!"
"Mm-hmm. Got it, Hest-Greenia."
"Are you looking for a fight, Loki?"
"That's right. The Hest-Greenia who got cheated on by Freya."
"I'll say it again," Hestia snapped. "I have no feelings for Bell Cranel. He's just an adventurer I met a few times."
"I want to help that boy!"
Hestia froze.
"What does that even mean?"
Emiya was just as confused.
What was Loki suddenly quoting?
Loki continued.
"That boy is about to change. Bell has found a goal and is about to walk a dangerous path."
"It'll be a perilous road."
"So I want the power to help him."
"A weapon that can open the road for that boy!"
Hestia: "???"
Why did that sound exactly like something she would say?
Emiya felt like he was starting to understand.
"I've always been asking that boy to help me," Loki continued.
"He's always been supporting me."
"I'm his goddess, but I've never done anything a goddess should do for him."
"...I don't want to be unable to do anything for him."
Emiya: "..."
At first, he didn't get it.
But after that, he finally understood.
Hestia still looked lost and couldn't help tagging Emiya.
"What is Loki going crazy about?"
Emiya didn't know how to explain it.
"...She's not going crazy. She's just reciting lines."
"Lines? What lines?"
Emiya hesitated.
He wanted to brush it off.
"Well... they're not important lines."
But Loki had no such restraint.
"They're your lines, shorty."
"After Bell joined your Familia, you were basically a parasite living off him."
"In the end, you had to beg Hephaestus to forge him a weapon."
"You even bowed on the ground all day for it."
Loki laughed.
"That part of the plot is hilarious. I can laugh about it all day."
Hephaestus: ...
She thought about it seriously.
If Bell Cranel really had joined Hestia's Familia.
If there'd been no Goddess's Feast.
Something like that might actually have happened.
After all-
Without a restaurant.
Hestia really was a poor goddess.
