But that would contradict Miyauchi Hiyage's purpose.

The people who went to the Miyauchi Hiyage were not just there to watch; they also went there to learn from others.

Tohru waved his hand dismissively. "Fine, fine, whatever you say. I just want to see what path the other supernatural systems in this world are taking."

The magic trick that Miyauchi Hiyage Himekage mentioned was indeed quite interesting to her.

Whether it's Unlimited Blade Works or the Jewel Sword that Miyauchi Hiyage recently acquired, according to Miyauchi Hiyage, they are both pure magical creations.

To be precise, one is the closest thing to magic, the Grand Magic, and the other is the Ultimate Magical Mystic Code created based on magic.

Tohru wasn't particularly interested in magic; he was more interested in the Holy Grail Ritual and the so-called five great spells.

The First Magic is said to be related to the extraordinary origins of this world.

The manipulation of the parallel world in the second magic.

The third magic, the materialization of the soul, is also the true purpose of the Holy Grail War.

The true nature of the Fourth Magic is unknown.

The fifth magic seems to be related to time.

These powers are indeed fascinating; one could say that those who can master these magics are almost at the level of gods.

The ceremony being held in Fuyuki City, where they are now heading, is related to the Third Magic.

After agreeing on the terms, Miyauchi Hiyage and Tohru briefly confirmed their direction. Then, in the Black Night, Tohru transformed into a giant blue dragon, carrying Miyauchi Hiyage silently and swiftly towards Fuyuki City.

Tohru has been in this world for almost a month now and is quite familiar with its environment.

Even after reverting to its original form, it still cast illusion magic on itself.

Even those with keen senses would find it difficult to spot Tohru if they weren't paying attention.

While Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes might be able to sense unusual Mana flows in the air, it wouldn't be easy for him to track Tohru's movements.

According to Tohru, it wasn't that Miyauchi Hiyage was riding on her; it was just that the magic she used allowed Miyauchi Hiyage to temporarily cling to her back and not fall off.

Miyauchi Hiyage knew that his friendship with Tohru was basically built on Tohru beating him up in battle, and he certainly couldn't be as willing as Thor to serve Kobayashi tea and water in the original work.

So he didn't say anything, but patiently lay on Tohru's back, using his Eyes of Destiny to sense the environment below.

The distance of five or six hundred kilometers was covered in less than five minutes even though Tohru was not traveling at full speed.

As the familiar red bridge came into Miyauchi Hiyage, Tohru's flight speed decreased.

"Is this Fuyuki City?" Tohru observed the not-so-large city from high above.

"Yes, I did sense several special Mana flows. Although they were attached to the Ley Line, if they could be transformed into heroic spirits, they would indeed possess considerable power."

However, Tohru was more concerned about the Holy Grail Ritual that Miyauchi Hiyage had mentioned before.

Summon ancient heroic spirits from the Throne of Heroes as Servants to fight.

Tohru wanted to see if it was possible to move this ritual to her world and summon her old friends who had died in battle to reminisce.

However, she didn't know if something like the Throne of Heroes existed in her world, but it wouldn't be a problem to make preparations in this regard first.

"The current surge of Mana in that location looks like it could even reach the level of a demigod. If you want to get involved, you should be careful."

When Tohru pointed to a location below the Fuyuki Bridge, Miyauchi Hiyage nodded.

Judging from the few remaining Mana turbulences in Fuyuki City, his judgment was correct.

This is indeed the world of Prisma Illya.

Furthermore, the collection of Heroic Spirit Card is almost complete.

This location is also where the Caster and Saber Heroic Spirit Card are located.

One is the betraying witch from ancient Greek mythology, and the other is the corrupted ahoge (shaggy king).

Although it lacks any consciousness, it is indeed quite troublesome with its near-limitless Mana.

I just had a fight with an Infinite opponent today, and I'm going to fight a new Infinite opponent tonight. However, the daytime fight was more of a friendly sparring session where neither side used their full strength.

But the night's match was a true life-or-death battle.

These Heroic Spirit Card certainly don't want to be sealed away again.

"However, they're not in reality right now; they're hidden in another dimension." Tohru looked at Miyauchi Hiyage. "Do you need my help with this?"

Tohru keenly sensed the magical effects of this place and knew that the Heroic Spirit Card were hidden in the cracks of the world.

Ordinary people obviously cannot enter that world.

Of course, for her, as long as she is aware of the existence of that world, she will naturally find a way to enter that crevice.

In the past, Miyauchi Hiyage might not have been able to directly enter that world.

But now he has just carefully studied various barrier techniques and analyzed the palace in the Impression Space.

He didn't spend much time figuring out how to enter the Mirror Space by following the local flow of Mana.

"Simply put, it requires a lot of Mana. If you don't have enough Mana, you won't be qualified to enter the Mirror Space." Miyauchi Hiyage and Tohru landed below the Fuyuki Bridge.

There seems to be some residual Mana here, which suggests that someone entered the Mirror Space at that location not long ago and left behind traces.

Following these remaining traces, the Miyauchi Hiyage could more easily enter the Mirror Space.

However, it's clear that these two onlookers who came from afar need to keep a low profile.

Illya and the others should still be fighting a tough battle in the Mirror Space.

So he asked Tohru to use illusion magic on the two of them so that no one would notice their arrival.

With two profound magical spells empowering them, Miyauchi Hiyage also used the remaining magic circle of the opponent to create a new teleportation array with the Mana of the Jewel Sword and entered the Mirror Space.

As soon as he entered the Mirror Space, he was greeted by a screen full of flashing special effects.

Looking at the hundreds and thousands of Mana matrices floating in the sky, randomly firing Light Cannon in all directions, it seems that the Caster subjugation phase is still underway.

Even Tohru, standing to the side, couldn't help but utter a word of praise upon seeing this rather spectacular scene within the Mirror Space.

"This Servant seems quite skilled, able to control so many Mana mechanisms simultaneously."

Then her gaze shifted to the two magical girls with rather unusual attire.

To be honest, although he had been living in this world for almost a month, Tohru felt that his ability to adapt had improved a lot compared to before.

But watching two little girls, around ten years old, fighting with people in such flashy clothes was still somewhat of a strange feeling.

"That's what magical girls are like. I'll find some magical girl anime for you when we get back," Miyauchi Hiyage said, looking at the familiar costumes. But the impact of seeing them in reality was definitely greater than it seemed.

Fortunately Illya Miyu's looks are indeed exquisite, and the outfits created by the ruby and Sapphire are also very delicate.

With their combined strength, Illya Miyu become cute and pretty magical girls, and it doesn't feel too out of place.

Unlike the indescribable makeup and styling of the previous Balala the Fairies, the actresses themselves weren't bad-looking, but the cheap colored wigs and overly bright costumes made their skin look dark and lacked any aesthetic appeal.

"Hmm?" Her gaze fell on the staffs in the hands of the two girls who were trying to break through the Mana cannon's blockade.

"That thing looks somewhat similar to the Jewel Sword." Tohru has been studying the limits of this thing for the past few days by holding a projection of the Jewel Sword.

The magical costume created with magic is indeed very good, at least in terms of Mana clashes, it suits her very well.

Seeing others with similar devices, she couldn't help but become curious.

Even though those two Wand couldn't match the power of the Jewel Sword in terms of performance, they could still provide their wielders with a lot of Mana, and they even seemed to have a certain level of intelligence, automatically casting some simple spells for their wielders.

Is this something that's actually mass-produced in the magic world?

Miyauchi Hiyage waved his hand. "How is that possible? If Jewel Sword could be mass-produced, the world would be very different now."

In other words, he used Unlimited Blade Works' specialization in sword projection and the Jewel Sword's infinite Mana to exploit a bug and project Jewel Sword in bulk.

Otherwise, even if the Jewel Magician wanted to reforge the Jewel Sword, he would probably have to put in some effort.

However, the idea of creating a jeweled Wand that could turn other girls into magical girls is indeed a bit hard to think about in detail.

If one had to pinpoint a reason, it would simply be the Jewel Magician's personal quirky taste.

Miyauchi Hiyage briefly explained the connection between the Jewel Sword and the Jewel Wand, and it was clear that Tohru's impression of the old man with this wicked sense of humor suddenly became more complicated.

"Let's just wait and see if these two magical girls can defeat each other on their own."

As she said this, Miyauchi Hiyage turned her gaze to the two girls below who were about the same age as her.

Luvia, wearing a dark, form-fitting dress, and Tohsaka Rin, wearing a white coat and a red skirt.

They were unaware of the arrival of Miyauchi Hiyage and Tohru, two outsiders. Instead, they watched the two girls who were fighting with slightly tense expressions, while giving them instructions on how to fight.

If you look closely, you can also see that Tohsaka Rin is holding a gray Diary in her hand.

"The owner of the second diary?"

This discovery did not surprise Miyauchi Hiyage.

There's a good chance you'll get the Diary in several works within the Type-Moon universe.

Among Ryougi Shiki four main heroines of Type-Moon— Aozaki Aoko, Arcueid, Arcueid, Artoria— Artoria probably has the least screen time in the Prisma Illya series, so she's unlikely to get the Diary.

In the Fate series, even though Artoria is the most popular character and the main character, Tohsaka Rin, who has a lot of storyline presence in different timelines, is the core character.

The game's opening prologue unfolds from Tohsaka Rin's perspective, and the story even has a bit of an otome feel to it.

Then, regardless of which route he takes, he needs Tohsaka Rin as his guide to lead Shirou Emiya into the Holy Grail War, and then fight alongside him as his teammate until the very end.

At the end of the game, aside from the Heaven's Feel route, Shirou Emiya in the other two endings will most likely choose to become Tohsaka Rin 'Tohsaka Rin apprentice and go to the Clock Tower with her for further studies.

In other productions, Tohsaka Rin was often pulled out to work overtime. She made cameo appearances as Ishtar and Ereshkigal in FGO and also appeared in Fate/Extreme Challenge.

As for the Prisma Illya storyline, although the female lead has become Illya, Tohsaka Rin has been accompanying Illya in battle as her mentor ever since the Ruby Wand chose Illya. Even though she can no longer transform into a magical girl, she still uses gem magic to assist in the battle.

"He's a top-tier tool that can be used anywhere, so it's only right that he got the Diary," Miyauchi Hiyage remarked, before taking out his own Diary with a slightly wicked grin and switching to the mode of his second Diary to start writing.

I recently heard through some channels that things aren't going well in Fuyuki City, so I decided to come and check it out to see which timeline Fuyuki City is on.

Is it FSN, the foundation of everything, or the world of Prisma Illya, or Fuyuki City within the FGO worldview?

However, it seems that Fuyuki City here is not like FSN, because in that timeline Fuyuki City should have suffered a major fire ten years ago due to the last Holy Grail War, which burned down half of the city.

If it's FGO, then it should be the route where the old director of Chaldea summons Solomon in the Holy Grail War, then violently sweeps through the Holy Grail War, takes the money, and leaves to continue his research.

After more than ten years of research, Chaldea was destroyed, and humanity was also going to be destroyed. In this timeline Fuyuki City was not in any major danger, but the whole world was going to rot.

Finally, there's Prisma Illya.

Aside from a bunch of Heroic Spirit Card appearing, Fuyuki City, the main stage, hasn't suffered any major disasters. The Holy Grail War ritual was destroyed by Kiritsugu Emiya ten years ago.

But while Fuyuki City in this world is safe, the world where Miyu Emiya is about to be destroyed. Thinking about the choices Illya will make in this world to save Miyu's world makes me feel a little heartbroken.

Chapter 326: The Magical Girls' Bitter Struggle

It can only be said that Fuyuki City is indeed a place with outstanding people and resources; it's really not easy to grow up safely in this place.

It's either a gas leak or a burst water pipe, and occasionally a psychopathic killer will appear and summon a sea monster.

The fire described in this article caused countless families to be torn apart and lives lost.

Moreover, regardless of the world, the malice towards Illya is indeed quite significant.

This story was originally intended to focus on Illya's route, but due to time constraints, most of it was cut, and her scenes were incorporated into Sakura's route.

But with three routes and five endings, only two of them allow you to survive to the end. The remaining three endings either involve having your heart ripped out or sacrificing yourself. The only ending where you survive is accompanied by the line that this body might not live past 18.

Finally, in the world of Prisma Illya, the Kiritsugu Emiya of this world not only restored the fighting power of the Magicians killer described in the original work, but also put aside his obsession with being a hero of justice. For the sake of his daughter, he dragged his wife to forcibly end the Holy Grail War and also ruined the Holy Grail Ritual.

Ultimately, they also repaired Illya's body, allowing her to grow up normally as a human, rather than as a Lesser Holy Grail.

And indeed, Illya in this world grew up healthily like an ordinary little girl, but unfortunately, she encountered a ruby that saw the true nature of the Holy Grail in Illya and was forced to become a magical girl.

But magical girls are just magical girls, I guess.

To be honest, before the release of Puella Magi Madoka Magica, a work by the warrior of love, magical girls were only given special treatment in some adult-oriented works, and the overall atmosphere was relatively sunny and positive.

Who would have thought that the guy who said he wanted to "create a world where Illya could live happily" would have his creative inspiration collapse when Madoka Magica started airing during the manga's serialization? In the end, it turned into "Although this world doesn't necessarily have to have Illya," and Illya went to 6,000 years ago to rewrite history, resulting in this abstract idea being forgotten by everyone.

Unfortunately, this manga is already nearing its end, and it'll probably only take another ten or twenty chapters to reach its conclusion. But then it starts delaying updates, and after several years, it's only released a few chapters that barely scratch the surface. I wonder if this manga will ever be completed in my lifetime.

In short, I'll be arriving in Fuyuki City soon. Let me see which world timeline this world is on. Please wait patiently for my good news.

As Miyauchi Hiyage quickly composed a new diary entry and updated it in a second diary within minutes, Tohsaka Rin, who was holding Diary and making notes not far away, suddenly frowned and began to examine the newly updated diary.

It was visibly that the other person's expression began to turn ugly, and even Luvia, who was standing next to her and was completely at odds with her, noticed the change in Tohsaka Rin's expression.

"Oh my, Tohsaka, what's with that expression?" Luvia, who couldn't stand each other from the start, asked a question, but the words automatically turned into a sarcastic tone the moment they left her mouth.
