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

===Part 4===


“Good grief…… I had wanted to settle it before it became like this, but──”

Looking at the domain of light ── the light that was filling the whole practice ground with Celis as the center, Lisha grumbled.

She looked slightly overwhelmed at <Lindwurm>’s Divine Raiment that activated.

“It’s still early to grieve. Even you want to show him your cool side, right?”

Lisha showed a fearless smile to Krulcifer loitering next to her.

“Yeah, I know. <Tiamat>! Show your true nature!”

At the same time she raised her Sword Device and shouted, light shone at her surroundings.

Immediately after, particles of light gathered once again and a new weapon emerged.

The auxiliary armament, <Seven Heads>.

The huge gun barrel, which was the allegory of a Goddess turning into a seven-headed dragon, was connected to <Tiamat>’s right arm and shoulder.

“Now, I shall entertain you! Academy’s strongest!”

She launched a total of 16 <Legions>, which were also warped in along with her auxiliary armament.

All of them simultaneously swooped down and aimed for Celis in the air.

But at that moment, Celis revealed a cold smile ── and muttered.

“Can you really entertain me?”

The next instant, wrapped in seven halos, Celis’ figure disappeared.

And then, she appeared beside Lisha wielding her Sword Device.

“……!”

Lisha held her breath as the spear’s thrust, tinged with lightning, impaled <Tiamat>’s flank.

Lisha’s body reflexively stiffened at the unavoidable attack,

<nowiki>*</nowiki>pashi*!

A rifle blast was heard and a flash of cold wave ran through the sky.

It was a counter to prevent further attacks to Lisha and aim for Celis’ opening, but Celis stopped her assault and turned, then accelerated and dodged.

Her reaction was fast. As if she knew the sniper’s position from the start, she flew towards <Fafnir> and quickly closed their distance.

The moment Krulcifer squared off, Celis had already finished her thrusting movement.

“……!?”

As Celis was repeatedly blocked by <Fafnir>’s <Auto Shield>, which activated in response to the Raisen’s attacks, the <Fafnir> eventually caved in and the Raisen knocked down the <Freezing Canon> from the arm of <Fafnir>; and in response, Krulcifer retreated at once.

“──You got me there. You were aiming for me from the beginning, right?”

“It’s a little late to notice it. For someone as wise as you.”

Gaining distance between them, Krulcifer smiled nervously while preparing her drag-ride sword.
