I Will Be the Son of Man

"Miss Luvia should be here."

Miyu explained something, then walked to the entrance and opened the door.

Outside the door, a girl with blond curly hair and a girl in red with double ponytails were standing.

"Illya, why are you here?"

There was a hint of surprise in Tohsaka Rin's eyes, and at the same time a little puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"Well, I thought about it a little bit after that. Sure enough, I still want to be a magical girl......"

The can was smashed to the bottom, and a helpless smile was drawn on the corner of Ilya's mouth.

After all, isn't he already regarded as a strange person......

"This child is really a child full of fantasy."

Luvia sighed, surprised at the other party's persistence.

However, Rin Tohsaka stared at Ilya for a while after being stunned for a moment, and then said.

"Yes, I see. But, have you really thought it through, Illya?"

"Ah."

Illya responded, then scratched her head.

"Besides, there is only one card left. I want to keep this matter from beginning to end."

"In addition, Rin also saved me once last night, so I want to fight again to see if I can help Rin get the card."

Ilya smiled, but after she blurted out, she found that she seemed a little arrogant.

"I'm glad you said that, but are you really not pushing yourself, Illya?"

"Don't worry, I've made up my mind!"

Seeing Illya's determined appearance, Tohsaka Rin also smiled.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you tonight, Illya."

Looking at the two of them, Luvia's mood was a little delicate.

So, she coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention and said.

"Sounds like a good friendship, but are you guys doing something wrong? The last card, our side is bound to get it."

"However, it's rare to see you like this, so I'll give you a chance."

Luvia paused, then looked at Hill.

"Hill, there is a question about the recycling of the last card, can you please not make a move?"

"I want to compete fairly with this guy and let her lose."

Hill frowned and thought for a while, and at this moment, Miyu also tugged La Hill's sleeve.

"It doesn't matter brother, I won't lose."

"Eh? Wait, wait, why did things turn out like this? Miyu, what's with your strange fighting spirit?"

Illya's face was full of greetings. Shouldn't the development of the matter be that everyone laughed and watched Hill take back the last card?

"I get it, I'm not going to take a shot at the card, but I'm going to take protective action."

Hill nodded in response, and there were more question marks on Illya's head.

"Really, if that's the case, don't regret it then, Luvia."

"Oh, I think you are. Even without Hill's help, my side will take the card as a matter of course."

Looking at Rin Tohsaka and Luvia who were confronting each other, Miyu who had been staring at her with inexplicable fighting spirit, and Hill who seemed to be thinking, Illya felt like crying.

She just wanted to make a friend and take back the last [employment card] by paddling. Why did things turn out like this......

Chapter 021: Struggle (36.5/n)

At night, on a quiet street.

"Hmm...why did things turn out like this..."

Ilya's heart was full of bitterness, and as a result, a good ending event turned into a bloody competition.

To be honest, she didn't even understand why Miyu's fighting spirit was so strong.

【Haha, maybe this is fate, Illya-chan~! 】

[It doesn't matter, as long as you show your confidence and momentum, there will always be a way! 】

[Ruby] The cheerful voice sounded, and it was quite happy that Illya could choose to transform into a magical girl again.

"Even if you say that, I don't think I can win against Meiyu......"

The mood became uneasy, and of course there was a trace of nervousness.

Holding a wand in her hand, Illya followed Tohsaka Rin and Luvia who were leading the way, and walked towards the place where the [job card] response appeared.

And Hill was at the end, because of Luvia's previous request, he had agreed to hand over the recycling of the last card to Miyu and Illya.

Therefore, now he is also thinking about how to ensure the safety of the two of them.

——I will not lose!

Miyu's eyes were burning with fighting spirit, even though this was just the final battle to recover the [Employment Card], it inevitably added a hint of other meaning to her.

In this way, with their own thoughts in mind, a group of people came to the target location and jumped to the [Mirror Realm].

**********

【Mirror Realm】.

As soon as they entered this [Mirror Realm], Tohsaka Rin and Luvia noticed something was wrong.

"It's really a small space......"

Rin Tohsaka looked at the surrounding environment. Compared with the previous few times, the scope of [Mirror Realm] this time is only one building and a small area around it.

"Well, but this also shows that the distortion of the leylines has reached a certain level. Therefore, this time is the last card."

Luvia echoed, and as their words just blurted out, a tall figure suddenly appeared on the rooftop not far away.

Roar--!

The roar full of madness echoed in this space, and the appearance of that berserker-like existence instantly brought a sense of oppression.

"That is.........."

Illya took a step back subconsciously, looking at the berserker with a murderous and ferocious aura, she couldn't help but recall what happened last night.

However, she looked at Rin Tohsaka and Luvia standing at the forefront, and Miyu who had a serious face without flinching, and she stopped the timidity in her heart again.

Wait, I seem to have forgotten someone......

By the way, brother Hill......

Illya blinked her eyes, but at this moment the berserker leapt into the air, raised her thick arms, waved her fists, and charged towards them.

Illya wanted to dodge subconsciously, no matter it was her, even Miyu and the others did the same.

However, before they could make a move, the attack of the berserker stopped in mid-air, as if it had encountered some obstacles, and could no longer move forward.

And if you look carefully, you will find that in the air that the opponent's fist is in contact with, there is a defensive barrier formed by a layer of magic power to resist the opponent's impact.

His own attack was blocked by an inexplicable force, and the berserker also fell back to the ground, and then waved his fists indiscriminately towards the air in front of him.

The fists that were as dense as a rainstorm hammered on the surface of the defensive barrier, but apart from stirring up layers of ripples, it had no effect.

Seeing the appearance of the berserker who was so close at hand, unable to attack himself and the others, everyone couldn't help being stunned.

However, there was no need to think about it. Among the people present, there was only one person who could support this level of defensive barriers.

Everyone turned their attention to Hill who was at the end, and Hill was also holding a silver wand at this time, constantly inputting magic power into the wand.

After Luvia's previous words, Hill actually thought of another thing.

That is, judging from the current situation, although he can always protect Miyu, after that he will return to the original Fuyuki City.

And without knowing whether Meiyou can be taken there, Hill believes that perhaps it is best for Meiyou to have the ability to protect herself.

Therefore, it happened that by taking advantage of the recycling of the last [Employment Card], he could have a chance to practice Meiyou.

However, judging from the situation, maybe Illya also needs to improve herself.

Because what was proposed earlier seemed to be fair competition, and from the perspective of the current opponent, Hill judged from the feeling that both of them were probably no more than the incarnation of Hercules.

"Is it a defensive barrier......But, in this case, wouldn't there be no way to tell the winner......"

Looking at the attacking berserker who was still outside without giving up, Luvia frowned and looked at Hill.

"It doesn't matter, as long as this is the case, Miyu and Illya can fight."

Hill nodded involuntarily, and then raised the silver wand in his hand.

A faint light radiated from his forehead, and a spell appeared on the top of the wand by itself.

The silver light shone on Miyu and Illya's bodies, and the two of them only felt a burst of warmth wafting from their bodies, and felt nothing else.

"what is this........."

Looking at the faint silver light covering her body, Illya's face was full of confusion.

"It should be something similar to this defensive wall. With this, his attack will not be able to harm you."

Hill explained, then looked at Tohsaka Rin and Luvia.

"Then, other than that, I won't interfere. You can compete fairly."

Miyu looked at the silver light on her body, then glanced at Illya next to her, and then turned her gaze back to Hill.

"Thank you, brother. I will definitely get the [employment card] back."

"I always feel that Miyu's fighting spirit is stronger......"

Ilya gave a dry laugh, and this time Rin Tohsaka also walked behind her and patted her on the shoulder.
