Editing Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut:Volume 13 Episode 4 (section)

===Part 16===
「GU, ooOOOOOoooOOOOO-!」

「──Kuh……! Haa, haa……-」

Lux was breathing hard against the attack of branches and roots that were coming one after another.

The Ragnarok that Lux faced was the gigantic Ragnarok Yggdrasil.

Its special ability was──adaptation strengthening.

It would obtain resistance against the enemy’s attack, furthermore it would grow and evolve to surpass the enemy’s strength.

It was an opponent that he had fought and defeated before, but as expected it was extremely troublesome.

It wasn’t like before when Hayes fed the Yggdrasil with several hundred Abysses, but the Lunatic Call by Listelka made it entered a rampage state and it cornered Lux into a situation that he couldn’t deal with.

Quick Draw, Recoil Burst, End Action.

He had already used the three hidden techniques, but he couldn’t obtain a breakthrough.

There was also the option of using the hidden technique that made use of tuning──Singlen’s Senjin, but using that might make the enemy took advantage of it instead within this battlefield where so many branches were flying around everywhere.

Above all else, the fatigue from the continuous serial battles until now took away the thinking ability from Lux’s mind.

But, he couldn’t throw in the towel just from this much.

Aeril had thrown away her place to belong as a Lord, furthermore she also knew that there was a high possibility that she wouldn’t be able to be accepted within the world alliance anymore. But even then she cooperated with Lux and others.

In addition for the sake of everyone from Syvalles too, who gave their all in order to save him, he must not lose here no matter what.

With the revival of Yggdrasil, a bad influence might occur within Philuffy once more.

And above all else, inside the fortress behind him there were the retreating soldiers and Airi.

And then, suddenly at the corner of Lux’s sight──he caught sight of a ship floating in the clear azure sky.

The silver airborne ship that was called as Heaven Palace, the castle of the Lords.

(Are you over there, Fugil?)

Aeril said that as a Lord, she would fight for the sake of her own belief.

What about Lux?

Defeating the revived Ragnarok here, captured Avalon, and stopped Sacred Eclipse.

Certainly the world might be saved with that, but was Lux’s wish only that?

He became involved with the new kingdom once more as a Seven Dragon Paladins, and he joined the side that protected the new order.

He obtained comrades and backer who he could trust, and got stronger.

Was he satisfied with his current self? No──wrong.

–

『It’s meaningless you know, Lux. Someone who has no resolve to exercise evil by their own will, someone who cannot sacrifice anyone, no matter how much such person grow stronger it won’t have any meaning at all. You are the weakest.』

–

The cold gaze of the elder brother looking down on the collapsed Lux in front of the throne of the old empire’s castle that was submerged in a sea of blood.

The sight of that day where all the people in the side of the old empire were massacred were seared into his mind even now.

The Lords who tried to rule the world.

However Aeril tried to save Lux and other by risking her life.

「Then──, I’m not mistaken!」

No matter what kind of danger he who had to braved through, he wanted to save Aeril who once was in the enemy side.

When he resolved himself like that and looked up above, Lux sent a Dragon Voice to her about a certain strategy at the same time.
