Editing Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut:Volume 12 Episode 6 (section)

===Part 9===
「Ku, kukukukuku……hahahahahah!」

Around the same time, right below the Moon.

On the mountain of rubbles of the practice ground where Dragon Marauder was seemingly defeated, a man stood up while laughing loudly.

The large man who was the Wyvern division commander, the leader of Dragon Marauder, Gatouhan.

But, his Divine Drag-Ride Hydra was half destroyed, and he also lost his right hand starting from his right shoulder. He was all but dead.

Lisha who saw that hid her exhaustion and warned the man.

「Stop it, you’ll really die if you force yourself with that body. Just stay there quietly.」

What Lisha said was a fact.

Lisha, too, had her stamina exhausted from doing Over Unit repeatedly and she didn’t have any strength left to use it again.

As expected though, she wasn’t so worse off that she would be done in by the current Dragon Marauder, but she was undoubtedly wounded all over.

「A knight you can trust? Becoming a master who is worthy of that……? Kuhahaha! Now you said it. The way you are talking sounds like it’s only you guys who are walking the correct path.」

「Does it sound like that?」

「All you bastard nobles, using your authority to persecute us. Those people are unforgivable. Such path like that──isn’t available for us right from the start……!」

*Pakii*, there was a high-pitched sound like ceramic breaking, and Hydra’s shoulder began to shine.

His Divine Raiment should be unable to even activate properly anymore, but──

「If it’s your grudge then I’ll listen to it later! If you move more than that……──!?」

The moment Lisha aimed her Cannon’s muzzle toward Gatouhan, the other two division commanders Vine and Drakkhen moved.

Lisha put up her guard thinking that they would attack her for sure, but they only took position beside Gatouhan.

「You guys don’t mind right, Vine, Drakkhen?」

「Yeah, I too don’t want to become a prisoner like this and survive on shamelessly.」

「We’ll leave it to you. We’ve got to show them too, our pride as mercenaries……」

「You bastards, what are you planning-!」

Lisha immediately raised her voice to stop them, but at the same time, Hydra’s armor began to shine ominously.

That flash blinded her eyes. When the light vanished before long, a shadow of a beast emerged from inside the jet black darkness.

「……What the!?」

The repulsive figure that appeared before her eyes caused Lisha’s shoulders to tremble.

That wasn’t a person, or an Abyss, or even a Drag-Ride.

It was a form of ominous armor that distorted unsightly.

A different arm grew from the armor’s arm, claws and fangs poked out from it back. An irregular shape.

It was a form of a poisonous monster, while at the same time it was baring the fangs of overwhelming killing intent.

What appeared before Lisha’s eyes was Gatouhan who was clad in a three-headed Drag-Ride. Even the part of his body that was lost was shut and healed.

In exchange the other two division commanders, Vine and Drakkhen, vanished.

It wasn’t just the Drag-Rides they wore, but even their flesh bodies inside the armors.

「──You, fused them!? The body of you three, and even the three Divine Drag-Rides!?」

The fusion ability of Hydra’s Divine Raiment──Re-Alive.

It was applied to his own comrades, combining their half-destroyed Divine Drag-Rides, and even stopped the bleeding of Gatouhan’s own body.

He devoured the very existence of his comrades who accompanied him until now and sacrificed them──

「What the hell are you doing! Those guys are……!」

Lisha shivered towards that strategy that sacrificed even themselves while glaring at the enemy before her.

In contrast, the tan-skinned large man lifted his Blade along with an inhuman grin of the abyss.

「Let’s go……! To blow away those who hinder us, the royalty and nobles who proclaimed the path of righteousness! Burn into your eyes, the power of the dragon who is taking revenge on the world!」

The outrageous armor of darkness color shined. Hydra that was the fusion of three Drag-Rides flew.

While being pressured by that killing intent, Lisha fired her Cannon to intercept.
