Chapter 7: The Day of Illya's Mirror Realm
The real world, the Edfeldt House-
"Anyway, since it's confirmed that Illya is safe, it's okay for the time being, and her family and school have taken care of it. Luvia said.
"The question is, according to Ruby's contact now, some of the Heroic Spirits are actually conscious?" Rin cupped his chin. If the Heroic Spirits materialized through the rank card are just mindless monsters, that's easy to say, but if there is a consciousness, the battle will be more difficult, just like the last battle, completely suppressed. And I'm afraid it's going to be very difficult for children like Illya and Miyu to do it, because killing a conscious Heroic Spirit is no different from killing someone in the ordinary sense, can you expect two ten-year-olds to kill someone? Even if you can, you can't bear to do it emotionally.
"Damn, it's just a magic wand but it's so willful, dragging ordinary people into the water, otherwise we can ask the association for help......" The two gritted their teeth at the magic wand again.

The Mirror Realm, Elijah's House-
"Anyway, Sakura-san, what happened before was really, unusuallyβI'm sorry!" said Illya, who was sitting at the dining table, banging her head against the table.
Knowing that Sakura is not the kind of monster that Rin said has no thoughts and will only defeat everything in front of him, and that the previous battle was only fought back because Sakura was attacked by Miyu, Illya regretted it. As for the significance of recovering the rank card, I have long forgotten about it.
"Still, Heroic Spirit...... Surprisingly easy to talk to. Illya said again.
"No, although some of the Heroic Spirits are really good at talking," Sakura remembered Uncle Conquest King again, "However, I am indeed the only one who is sensible in the materialization of the rank card. Sakura is here to clear up Illya's misunderstanding. β
"Huh...... Have you been with a bunch of Heroic Spirits like that?...... If it were me......" Illya couldn't imagine.
Silence followed, because Illya was hungry, so Sakura was now making breakfast, including her own portion, of course.
"But, it's incredible, the mirror world is except for people...... It's everything, but since there's no one, where do these things come from?" Illya felt that the atmosphere was a little dead, and she had nothing to say.
"No, Illya, the so-called mirror realm is just a mirror-like existence, a world that appears by distorting the magic generated by rank cards, and does not actually exist. Ruby Road.
"And it's not like there's everything but people. Sakura picks up the ruby. Sakura put the finished things on the table.
Suddenly, Sakura's face changed, because the Doll Jiu Ling, who acted without permission, killed the thunder clone she sent out to find her, but the information had already been sent back, so it was better to fill her stomach first, and Sakura instantly recovered her complexion, as if nothing had happened.
"Huh?" Illya, who had already consumed a lot of mana last night, was really hungry now, so she directly picked up the green balls on the plate and stuffed them into her mouth, "What the hell is missing?"
"The communication devices are not receiving the signal, and there are no normal ingredients. Sakura informs here. β
"That'...... This is ......" Illya froze.
"Made of roadside grass. Sakura explains here. β
"Poof~~~~"
Twenty minutes later-
Illya packed her things and prepared to go out.
"Illya, are you going to school in the mirror realm too?" Ruby said as she floated around Illya.
"Of course," Illya patted her cheek, "Even if you're a magical girl, it's inviolable every day!" Illya wanted to be a good student, and then Illya walked out of the house, Illya wouldn't tell Ruby that she forgot to take home her math homework last night, although she didn't know if doing her homework in the mirror world would work in reality, but she should still try, at least get the answer.
Illya walked down the deserted street, and Ruby continued, "Illya, the mirror realm is very dangerous, why don't you transform?"
"No, as long as there is no irrational spirit coming out. β
"Alas, there's really no way, then I can only reluctantly protect Illya by myself," Then, the ruby floated in front of Illya, and a pair of antennas stretched out from above, "Secret Instrument No.18 Simple Predictor!"
"Now, Ruby, are you really a wand?" Illya was speechless at the ruby's form and function.
"Oh, here it is, the first prediction - watch out for what flies out!"
"Hey, Ruby, hereβ" Illya lowered her head to pinch the ruby, and then-
"Phew-" A soccer ball grazed the back of Illya's head, "boom!" and smashed a hole in the wall by the street.
"Eh--" Illya froze, "Where did the football come from?!Is there no sane hero??, can no reason play football?!"
"Oh, next-beware. β
"Woo---" A sedan slid sideways from a beautiful drift on the left side of the intersection in front of her, Illya fell to the ground in fright, "Boom~~" The car crashed into the wall next to Illya and stopped.
"Oh...... Driverless cars. Ruby scratched her "head" with her "wings", "This is a so-called paranormal event?"
Illya kneaded the ruby vigorously, "Ruby, stop playing!
"Next - Beware of the candles. β
"Ahhhh
"What??!! what's going on?!" Illya panicked.
"Next - Beware of flooding. β
Sewer gushing ............
"Next - be careful underground. β
The ground is collapsing............
After a while, Illya OTZ said: "Whew, whew...... What is this, curse?...... What's next?"
"Watch out for hounds. β
"Huh!" Illya jerked her head up, and then "boom" a long sword was thrust into the spot where Illya had been pounding her head.
"Ruby !!!"
"Ahh Ruby scratched his head, "Anyway, it's under attack now, let's transform." β
"Hey-" Illya transforms into a magical girl without resistance, and then soars into the air in an instant, and then runs away without a trace.
"Oh yes, what a great luck and intuition, I wanted to kill her as naturally as possible. A girl with a bow and about the same size as Illya stood on an electric pole and said to herself, this girl was dressed very similarly to Illya, who had fought Sakura the night before, but her skin was darker than Illya's, and her hair was more silver. However, the girl did not immediately pursue, but looked behind.
"Whew--" Sakura landed on the roof behind her.
"You unceremoniously killed my clone, it seems that my Noble Phantasm and Archer's rank card have undergone a mutation beyond my control, who the hell are you? (To be continued)
