As the girls prepare for what could be their final mission, Kuro questions Irisviel over how the cards are related to the Holy Grail War, which involved only seven classes. Ruling out the possibility of Irisviel being involved, Kuro suggests that they question Miyu, but Illya feels it is best to focus on the task at hand and find the answer themselves.
Episode 7: Enforcer
The girls are joined by Bazett, who reveals she had dispelled the curse of shared pain a while back, before entering the Mirror World, where they are confronted by the eighth card, shrouded by a black mist. Following their plan, Luvia restrains the enemy while Rin provides a mean to enhance Illya and Miyu's attack, providing an opening for Kuro to attack. However, the enemy manages to block it with a shield and counterattacks, forcing the girls to retreat while Bazett charges in, only to get stabbed by multiple swords wielded by the enemy. As Bazett fights using the Berserker's power, Illya and Kuro stay behind to give her a chance to strike, but are still unable to defeat it.

Just then, the girls are approached by Caren, revealed to be an observer for the Holy Church, who had placed a bound field around the city to keep anyone from seeing anything, giving the girls an opportunity to rest. As Caren theorises that the creature is targeting the Holy Grail, with Kuro deducing it relates to a different Holy Grail War entirely, the enemy starts heading towards Mt. Enzou, where it uncovers a magic circle. While trying to push them out of it, Illya pushes out a human boy that was inside it.
