Editing Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut:Volume 3 Episode 4 (section)

===Part 3===

「Kuh……!? E, enough already……. Let’s end this.」

The seven types──a total that reached twenty one weapons she possessed were all destroyed. Saniya finally hung her head down and proclaimed her surrender.

She landed on the ring, sheathed her Sword Device, and raised both her hands.

「Due to the opponent’s surrender, it’s Lux Arcadia’s victory!」

Instantly, the first and second year students raised loud cheers from the spectator seats.

At the same time, because of the defeat of Saniya who was a third year student and a member of Syvalles, turmoil ran through the seats where the third year students were located.

「……This time, I’ll recognize that it’s my loss. But, don’t think that you can win against Celis-neesama with just this level.」

Saniya spat out with an unpleasant expression, dispelled her armor, and left from the practice ground.

「Fuu……」

Lux saw her off before he let out a relieved sigh.

Thanks to the Scale BladeBarrier Fang Sword that Lisha created for him, he managed to win somehow, but as expected <Critical Hit> that blocked the opponent’s attack and destroyed the weapon used up more concentration than he imagined.

Even so it should be fine for him to feel satisfied at the point where he obtained victory but,

(……But, why is it. That way of fighting of Saniya-senpai. Something feels out of place──)

「Ooooi! Lux! You did great there!」

Lisha’s voice that flew from the spectator seats caused Lux to wave his hand awkwardly, it was then,

「──!?」

He felt an intense presence on his back. Lux reflexively turned around to behind him.

「…………」

Celis was at the center of the spectator seats that were mainly filled with the third year students.

She stood up on that spot. The aloof presence that her body was always enveloped with strengthened further and she was directing a sharp gaze that stabbed at Lux.

Seeing that figure that was filled with uncommon emotion, for a moment Lux was about to be shaken, but he immediately recovered his calm and gazed back at Celis.

「…………」

Their gazes crossed each other for a mere few seconds.

After that, Celis turned around and turned her back towards Lux.
