The Infinite Journey of a Certain Flame

"Hey, it's been a few days! Did you miss me?"

"hehe."

Kiana smiled but did not continue speaking.

She knew very well that Xiao Hei's arrival was no ordinary matter.

You know, she's currently competing with Ilya for a different identity, so there must be some unspeakable secret behind her transferring to this class.

Anyway... after class, according to Illya and Miyu's habits...

I'm afraid they'll come to me to discuss how to deal with this transfer student who suddenly barged in...

"I hope he's alright."

As Kiana tidied her desk, she prayed silently in her heart.

Time passed slowly as they pondered these possibilities for the future.

Finally, with the ringing of the bell, Mr. Taiga once again stopped the unfinished lesson, picked up his lesson plan and left with a sense of reluctance.

"Everyone should get along well with Chloe."

Perhaps because her self-introduction had earned her some goodwill, Teacher Taiga made an extra comment before leaving.

I don’t know if it was because of her, the homeroom teacher, that a lot of students gathered at Xiao Hei’s table as soon as get out of class ended.

"Hehe, Chloe, what's your relationship with Illya and Kiana?"

"Huh?"

Someone unintentionally uttered that remark, causing Kiana and Illya to turn around in unison and look at Kuro, who was surrounded by many classmates...

Sentimental Magical Girls (Prisma Illya): Chapter 53 As an imposter, she wants to survive...

Why would you say that?

Xiao Hei flicked her ponytail and asked in a very calm tone.

Upon hearing this, the unknown female classmate scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Um, look... you and Ilya look so alike, and you seem to be the same age."

That's absolutely true. Generally speaking, Ilya and Kuro are practically identical.

The only difference lies in their clothing, skin color, hair color, and eye color.

If it weren't for these reasons, the girls in the class would probably think they were Ilya's twins.

"Oh? Really? That's strange."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Hei slowly lowered his head, revealing a cold smile that held a deeper meaning.

"Why do you say I resemble her? Shouldn't it be that she resembles me?"

"you!"

How dare this imposter challenge the real deal?

Ilya slammed her hand on the table, almost rushing up to argue with the little girl who was slandering her.

However, her extreme actions unsurprisingly surprised many of her classmates.

You should know that the homeroom teacher specifically instructed us to get along well with Xiao Hei.

Why did Ilya start arguing with everyone with just one sentence?

The students in the class, unaware of the facts, then spoke up:

"Alright, alright, Ilya, don't argue with your new classmate!"

"Huh? Why is everyone..."

Ilya hadn't expected to become the target of everyone's criticism, so she sat down feeling aggrieved and slumped over her seat, looking utterly dejected.

Seeing this, Xiao Hei not only did not feel guilty, but instead revealed a devilish smile.

"By the way, Chloe, what's your relationship with Kiana? It feels like you two have known each other for a while now."

"What?"

This time, it was Xiao Hei's turn to be confused.

She turned her head to look at Kiana with some confusion, her eyes filled with doubt and wariness.

Compared to the naive Illya who had no secrets from herself, she found Kiana to be more dangerous, mysterious, and elusive.

"Stop joking around. Actually, this is my first time here, and I'm still getting used to the new environment. But it's so great to have such good friends like you all taking care of me. Um... thank you everyone!"

Wow!

Xiao Hei's approachable and friendly remarks were far more impactful than the ridiculous self-introduction of some unknown white-haired transfer student.

In short, her offensive strategy directly turned neutral parties into friends.

He instantly won over the female students, who surrounded him and chattered excitedly.

It must be said, this friendly scene...

That's absolutely outrageous!

"Uh..."

Having recovered somewhat, Ilya turned around and looked at the imposter who was thriving. She was so angry that she almost fainted.

Because it's very clear that if left unchecked, she might use this influence at school in the future...

You've gone against your own nature!

"Hey! Kiana, Miyu!"

"Huh? What—!"

Before Kiana could react, she and Miyu were pulled away from the classroom by Illya.

...

On the rooftop of the academy, Ilya held Kiana's hand and buried her head in Kiana's slightly ample chest.

"Ugh! This imposter is so annoying, how can I get rid of her..."

Feeling the slight pressure from Illya, Kiana smiled helplessly at Miyu beside her.

"Kicking her out might not be an option, since she's already transferred to our school. If you openly ostracize her... you'll get a scolding from Mr. Taiga."

"Hmm... So what should we do? By the way... it's so soft."

"Hey, hey... don't move around, it's a little itchy."

"Hey! Illya, stop teasing Kiana!"

Seeing Illya and Kiana sticking so close together, Miyu felt a little jealous and pulled up her white-haired, red-eyed playmate, then turned her gaze to Kiana.

"What should we do? I feel like if we leave her alone... something big is going to happen."

Miyu was also filled with doubts about the appearance of Kuro.

It's obvious to anyone with eyes that this slightly dark-skinned little girl has an inseparable relationship with the Heroic Spirit class.

Regardless of their relationship, they are not the kind of people who can coexist peacefully.

"How exactly can I..."

As Miyu pondered, she stroked her smooth chin, her gaze involuntarily deepening...

Seeing this, Kiana guessed that she might be so panicked that she was somewhat delirious, so she quickly called out to her:

"Hey! Miyu!"

Hearing Kiana's call, Miyu looked up as if she had been startled awake from a nap:

"Huh? Oh! What's wrong, Kiana?"

"You...and Ilya, don't be so nervous. I think she's the one who should be worried, not us."

Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately showed expressions of great confusion.

"Why do you say that?" Ilya asked softly.

"Hehe, don't worry, she'll come looking for you soon."

Seeing Kiana's confident expression, Illya was extremely puzzled.

She didn't understand why her friend was so confident in saying those things, but...

"Forget it, let's hold back until something unusual happens."

After saying this, Ilya called the two of them back to the classroom for class.

During class, as she was daydreaming, she thought that perhaps this imposter would ambush her on her way home from school.

After all, judging from her attitude, she seems to mind sharing an identity with me.

Could it be that this guy is planning to replace the real thing?

"Maybe I'm overthinking it."

Ilya smiled and didn't take it seriously.

result...

When the day's studies were over, she slung her schoolbag over her shoulder and ran home, intending to say a proper goodbye to her beloved brother...

'Whoosh whoosh! '

Three small throwing knives flew over with lightning speed...

"Eh!!!"

The sudden attack left Ilya completely bewildered.

If Ruby hadn't reacted quickly and instantly transformed the girl into battle mode, perhaps the girl standing on the telephone pole would have succeeded...

"Ara, not bad, Illya? Or rather, as expected of a top-tier Mystic Code, Ruby."

"You...you actually know about rubies?" Ilya raised her head, looking up at the girl who looked remarkably like herself, her wine-red eyes filled with nothing but terror.
