Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Nee-san, it's Sapphire.
What's this?
Thank goodness. I got through.
This is your sister! You're safe, then?
I was captured with Miyu-sama,
but Miyu-sama waited for a chance to let me escape.
I've been hiding until now, unable to act.
The interference is awful.
It must be the barrier's influence.
I can contact you because the barrier's weakened,
but please be careful.
Good grief, I'm always telling you, aren't I?
You can't leave the house on your own.
But, but, I really wanted to see for myself.
I see. So, what did you think?
Well...
What are they talking about?
Well, it doesn't matter. I'll just fix this for now.
The barrier weakened because the Ainsworth family head went outside.
She's a little less reliable than I'd heard, but she was really kind!
I see. That's good.
Huh? That voice...
The enemy's...
The Ainsworth's...
Shall we go home, then?
This voice is...
...leader is heading your way.
Listen carefully to this voice.
I am Darius Ainsworth, head of the Ainsworth family.
That is your true enemy.
What a tasteless alarm.

Episode 6
Chilling Hostility
My, what a problem...
That is an annoying and inconsiderate alarm.
For the starting bell, it's absolutely tasteless.
Oh?
Bazett-san!
So you're the mage who erected this barrier?
Devotion to practical application is a valid aesthetic.
But as you are a mage,
I wish you would put some thought into the stage production.
For example, a barrier should be done...
like this.
Apneic Beauty.
Bazett?
What's this?
Illya-san!
A-An ice dome?
I'm trapped inside!
My apologies for the impromptu stage,
but I wanted to have a nice, peaceful chat with you.
It's a pleasure to meet you,
Illyasviel von Einzbern-kun.
I am Darius, head of the Ainsworths.
Y-You're...
Yes, I am the one
who discovered the Holy Grail named "Miyu,"
created the Cards that draw out the power of Heroic Spirits,
and started the ritual to complete the Holy Grail,
the Holy Grail War.
Yes, indeed...
From your perspective, I must seem like an overlord to be defeated.
Not even a crack?
What's going on with this ice?
Move, Bazett!
I'll punch a hole through it.
No way...
A Noble Phantasm, then.
And it's an incredibly high-ranking Barrier Noble Phantasm!
No way! Illya-san!
Are you all right?!
Illya-san!
Open this thing!
So noisy outside...
Illya-san!
Was this a failure?
Open up! Illya-san!
If only it blocked sound, as well.
Yes, definitely a failure.
What is?
It's getting unbearably cold...
Huh?
I didn't expect it to have such a weakness.
What's this man trying to do?
I'm not cold at all, so don't bring me any blankets.
And she's no better!
Erica-chan, you tricked us?
You were our enemy, but you hid your identity to get close?
Huh? I didn't trick you!
I just wanted to see for myself, that's all.
I wanted to see if you were the person
Miyu-oneechan said you were.
We heard about all of you from Miyu.
All those she met, all that happened, everything.
My, indeed...
How wonderful!
Sent to a parallel world!
Forging a pact with a suspicious Mystic Code!
Learning friendship for the first time as she faces danger to collect the Cards!
However, her false daily life has reached its end,
and Miyu has returned to me once more!
It's a mythology woven of coincidence, providence, and fate across multiple worlds!
Thank you for gathering my Cards, Illyasviel!
No, no... I won't ask you to return them!
Use them as you will against—
Papa, Papa!
What is it, Erica?
That's wrong. You're going overboard.
You're right...
I'm not entirely used to it yet.
M-Miyu would never tell you all those things on her own!
She never even talked about them with us!
Tanaka?
Ainsworth...
What did you do to Miyu?!
You shouldn't shout too much.
This frozen palace can't be broken from the outside.
But in exchange, the oxygen within slowly depletes.
And 301 seconds after activation, oxygen density becomes zero.
Yes, we have 301 seconds, so let's have a nice, long chat.
Stand back! You should stay out of this!
Hey! Did you hear—
Ow!
Tanaka, you're...
Oh? That's odd.
Don't tell me you can't even talk anymore?
I suppose I'll have to reconsider.
As an actor, if you can't even ad lib such a part,
then perhaps you aren't necessary to our stage.
Oh, right.
You were the only one not in Miyu's memory.
How troublesome...
I dislike it when extras ruin the stage.
He parried it?
Ruby!
Illya-san!
Install!
What a lack of common sense, swinging such a thing before a child.
What would you do if she got hurt?
Authoritarian Personalism!
My body...
It's not gravity or physical manipulation!
This is Conceptual Interference.
It broke through my runic defense so easily?
Now, then...
Who are you?
Yes, silence is an answer, as well.
But there's no need for an extra without lines on my stage.
Stop!
C-Counterfeiter.
I see. Apparently, you aren't an extra.
It would be easy to put a period on your performance here,
but that wouldn't be artful.
I welcome you!
And your inclusion in the cast!
Wait...
Illya-oneechan...
Erica-chan...
You said, "You shouldn't hurt people."
What was that?
Man, I went to the usual place to get food...
And I couldn't help but laugh when I saw fried rice served with mapo on it!
Hey.
Seriously, where does that obsession come from?
I'm thinking of ordering gyoza next time.
Anyone want to bet on what's in them?
Take a hint, why don't you?
Something gave me a hint that I wouldn't want to.
As soon as I got back, you all were like this.
What happened?
Wow... So Darius came here himself?
Maybe he was trying to get revenge on Illya-san for invading his base.
Constantly acting counter to the norm could potentially destroy the plot, after all.
He also kept saying things like that, but why?
Why that "stage" and "cast" stuff?
For whatever reason,
the Ainsworths are particular about performance and production.
Evidently, they hate when their plans and schedules are broken.
What the heck?
They think they're running a play here?
What's less understandable is his unusual,
almost irrational strength.
His unidentified Noble Phantasms, Apneic Beauty and Authoritarian Personalism.
Plus, his ability to stop Excalibur with his bare hands.
What are those?
A giant dome of ice. It was incredibly tough.
The other was...
No, I don't mean that.
Those Noble Phantasms...
I've never heard of them.
My treasury houses the originals for almost all the Noble Phantasms.
Every single Noble Phantasm
is derived from an original that matured through history.
All the Noble Phantasms still spoken of in the modern era
were originally mine.
But I'm saying I don't know these two.
If they really are Noble Phantasms, where did they originate?
That's our line.
Then, what does that make Tanaka-san,
since she broke through that mysterious Noble Phantasm?
She's been asleep ever since.
She doesn't seem to be injured, though.
She's sleeping more peacefully than necessary.
Hey, isn't it a little hot in this room?
The heater's running too high.
The heater isn't on.
It's hot because of Tanaka's body.
She's like a stone that's been roasted.
How absurd can she be?
In the end, only Tanaka-san's mysterious power had any effect.
All of our attacks just...
Illya...
I know.
I won't complain anymore.
There's no point in wondering why we lost.
We have to find a way to win.
As long as you understand that.
That's all good, but how are you going to win?
Onee-chan, you're a liar.
I don't...
I don't want to hear that from you!
I just want to save Miyu.
Hey...
How cold.
You don't enjoy surprises like this anymore?
I believe I told you to stop linking to my window.
Were you looking at the stars again?
You never tire of that.
Time for your work. Come.
Relax, Miyu.
I don't want to be violent with you.
Let go...
This is unusual. Rebelling against me?
When did this start?
That is troublesome.
Bad children need to be punished,
but we mustn't damage your body.
That means...
Your older brother would have to suffer for your wrongdoing.
Good girl.
Don't worry, it will be over soon.
We've done this many times.
Aren't you used to it?
Behold, Miyu...
Another verse of the myth has been inscribed.
That makes five now!
Only two more until it's complete.
Read it closely.
These are the episodes that have occurred around you
between your return to this world and today.
Oh? You passed out?
Good grief...
Do you have any idea how much care I'm taking to ensure
that your body is unharmed?
I wish you would just endure the phantom pain.
I'm done. Carry her out.
Yes.
Oh, good morning, Miyu-oneechan!
Erica...
Good job on your work!
I left the medicine to help restore your blood here.
Make sure you take it later!
Are you all right? Need to sleep some more?
I'm fine.
This is nothing new...
Of course!
It's nothing new, huh?
Oh, right, right!
I brought lots of books so you wouldn't be bored, Onee-chan.
You love these, right?
Erica, um, you're always looking out for me.
Thank you.
You don't need to praise me!
I don't want to be praised at all!
And definitely don't pet my head, okay?
No matter what!
If say, "Don't do it," three times, don't—
Hey, Erica?
What?
Did you meet Illya?
Yeah. She was a kind lady.
Yeah, I know.
Illya's kind and warm.
Hmm, but she's a bit of a liar, too.
A liar?
She said, "You shouldn't hurt people for no reason,"
but she attacked Papa with a sword.
That's cruel!
That's...
Honestly, why would Illya-oneechan do something like that?
Because Illya's trying to rescue me.
Rescue you? From what?
From here. From the Ainsworths.
Onee-chan, you'll disappear again?!
If you disappear again, I'll...
I'll be alone again.
I see.
So while I was in their world, this girl
was always...
Yeah! I'll be okay!
I'm a lady.
I'll be fine all by my—
Onee-chan?
Erica, you're kind.
Kind and strong.
And warped.
But perhaps I'm just as warped, living within my own contradiction.
I know there's absolutely no way to win against the Ainsworths.
So I shouldn't hope for rescue.
But...
Right now, I want to be saved.
I can wish to be saved.
Since I met Illya...
Miyu!
Honestly, what a contradiction.
Yes, even if Illya did come here...
What would I do if she did?
Hey...
What?
I'm fine all by myself, but I prefer when you're here.
Right.
Do you prefer having Illya-oneechan with you, too?
Yes, I do.
Okay.
I'm heading back now!
It's almost time for bed.
Later, and goodnight, Miyu-oneechan!
The stars are hidden.
It's raining?
Tanaka's fast asleep, as always.
Illya, are you up?
What should we do for breakfast?
Hey! Are you still asleep?
Illya?
I wished 'cause I wanted,
Even though it's wayward.
