Editing Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut:Volume 8 Epilogue (section)

===Part 1===

The threat of human shaped Ragnarok, Sacred Eclipse that appeared at the same time with the surprise attack of Dragon Marauder had left.

But the next day, it seemed there was a talk from the Lord’s first imperial princess Listelka that it was nothing more than a temporary victory.

To the end, it was Avalon that made Sacred Eclipse appeared.

When that human shaped Ragnarok was killed, it would resurrect along with the time’s passing, and before long the period until its revival would speed up.

The time frame of the world’s destruction of half a year later was a result from the calculation which took that fact into account.

This was a brief moment of peace.

Even so there was no doubt that they had averted the danger.

The tidying up of the campus festival would be started the next day, at the same time most of the Seven Dragon Paladins and leaders’ representatives gathered in the Cross Field returned back to their country.

Singlen who saved Cross Field from the threat of Abyss with his overwhelming power was evaluated highly by the alliance, next the achievement of Lux and Celis who had repelled Sacred Eclipse for the moment was also recognized.

The former prisoner of Heiburg. The Hunting Punishment Gerdaf, one of the Servants, the assassination corps with members who possessed high ability and yet were imprisoned because of their crime. He was annihilated because of the cannon attack of a mysterious Drag-Knight.

Consequently the case where Celis and Lux fell into a trap couldn’t be substantiated, the situation became one where the investigation right of Babel for a month was kept in Heiburg’s grasp where refusal wasn’t permitted.

In addition, it came to light that the Dragon Marauder took advantage of the chaos from Sacred Eclipse’s appearance and invaded the Academy’s underground jail, liberating the division commander Dracken, and recovered back the Divine Drag-Ride Asp.

Although it was something that couldn’t be helped because they took the advantage of the gap created when the new kingdom military intercepted Sacred Eclipse, it was still a painful affair.

It seemed that from here on a countermeasure would be prepared to further strengthen the security of Drag-Ride hangar.

And then──a new objective was created in the world.

In order to stop the world’s destruction by Sacred Eclipse based on the oracle that was told by the ancient era imperial family, the Lord, the countries would aim at Avalon, the land of paradise where the knowledge and technology of the past were sleeping.

For that, with the exception of the Ark and the Gigas, the liberation of the remaining Ruins was indispensable.

In order to place the crystals called Grand Force at the deepest part of each Ruin, defeating the five Ragnarok that were holding the Grand Forces was a matter of the highest priority.

At the same time there were three issues that had to be solved at the same time.

First, was the extermination of Dragon Marauder──the mercenary organization of Drag-Knight that was hostile to the countries in the Ruins’ capture.

Second, was the finding of the seventh Ruin, Moon which whereabouts became unknown since several months ago.

Third, the suppression of 『traitor』 that was assumed to be somewhere amidst this world alliance.

At any rate, owing to Listelka who proclaimed that the country that raised achievements for the sake of reaching Avalon would be granted with more reward, each country would unintentionally compete with each other for accomplishments.

When leaving from the Academy, Singlen called out to Lux. Even now his words were remaining in Lux’s ear.

「It seems that the kings of the countries are relieved that the Lords are cooperative. ──Hey chore prince, don’t you think that there is a limit even in being foolish?」

「What could you possibly mean?」

In respond to Lux’s utterance, Singlen kept pasting the fearless grin on his face and answered.

「Stop playing dumb. You too should have gotten at least an inkling of those guys’ aim. If at first the Lords showed a hostile stance, the whole world will turn into their enemy. ──But, those guys cleverly used their fortune and technological strength as bait and made an arrangement where we competed among ourselves.」

「…………」

「Well fine. Right now it can still hardly be said those guys are double-crossing us. More importantly I know well about your brother. If you will submit to me, I’m going to teach you about him right away. I’ll also help you out. That’s including the matter of Ruin investigation right that is taken by Heiburg.」

──Lux didn’t respond to that invitation.

Singlen’s words were also more or less logical.

But, as expected he couldn’t let his guard down against this man. Lux’s instinct was telling him that.

Lux and Celis were made to take holiday for two days to heal their wound and fatigue from the battle, during that time the tidying up of campus festival was over.

It was Lux’s first campus festival that was really full of happening.

Lux was feeling a tinge of loneliness while together with Lisha and others, they went to plead at Relie in panic, asking whether Celis’s request to resign as Seven Dragon Paladin’s aide could be retracted.

Naturally, they were resolved that their request might be denied.

「Aa, that matter? Yes, I’m still properly holding on to it without presenting it to the capital you know? I was only asked to keep it in my care after all.」

Like that, they were responded with Relie’s indifferent smile.

「When Lux-kun and other know about it, they will come to me and ask to retract it with all their might anyway right? It will be troublesome at that time if the withdrawal request has been formally processed then.」

As expected from Relie. Lux who knew her since the past could only feel astounded by her action.

「Headmaster is really impossible. But, that helped me out.」

Celis stroked her chest in relieve and she turned around to face the Syvalles members.

「My gratitude for everyone who came together with me. In order to be of assistance to the new kingdom──to Lux as an aide, I wish to do everything in my power from here on too.」

「Haa, humbling yourself like that again. Geez, Celis-senpai.」

「Yes. But, really this is a good thing.」

Seeing Celis’s smile, Tillfur and Noct of the Triad each replied so.

Everyone there including Lux made a relieved expression. And then Sharis suddenly smiled mischievously and tapped Celis’s back lightly.

「I see, so Celis is thankful to us. As a splendid senior, you will fulfill your promise from here on──isn’t that right?」

「I, I intend to do so……but, what is it?」

Celis made a bewildered expression at Sharis’s suspicious insinuation.

「Everyone, you heard that right? Then just as she proclaimed, how about we have her fulfilling the promise with Lux-kun? Without that, our festival won’t end, isn’t that right?」

「Eh……?」

Lux and Celis tilted their head at the same time, then the other Syvalles members were also flabbergasted for a moment.

But, some soon noticed and they snapped their eyes wide open.

「Wa, wait a second!? It’s already invalid after this long right!? Even if they don’t intentionally redo it──」

「It’s true. The campus festival is over already, I think it’s not something they need to force themselves to do.」

「Be, besides right now, even if they don’t do it in this kind of place──」

Lisha, Krulcifer, and also Airi altogether tried to stop it.

Then, Philuffy spoke the answer with her expression still absentmindedly blank like usual.

「I also want to do it, a ‘chuukiss’ with Lu-chan.」

「……-!?」

With that word, everyone there recalled it.

At the event of campus festival, the punishment game from the costume tournament.

Celis was unable to kiss Lux and ran away that time.

「It seem the misunderstanding between the two has also been cleared away, so do it without reservation. Now, all of us here will be the witness.」

「Yes. It’s a punishment game so it can’t be helped. I only know about kiss from book, so my heart too is beating unusually fast.」

「Uaa. Bu, but still. As expected shouldn’t this get stopped!? The time has already passed somewhat anyway──」

The festival lover Tillfur was unusually trying to stop the kiss between Lux and Celis, but,

「Oh, is that fine? If there is similar situation in the future, won’t this be disadvantage for Tillfur too if at this time this promise is disregarded?」

「Uuu, I, I got it! And so, do it resolutely you two!」

Admonished like that by Sharis, even the outsider Tillfur willfully told the two to resolve themselves.

「I, I understand. Then, that’s──is it, okay? Lux……」

Suddenly when Lux turned his gaze forward, he saw Celis there whose expression was resolved although she was averting her gaze shyly.

(I, it’s a punishment game, it can’t be helped now that it reached this point, isn’t it?)

「……E, excuse me!」

Lux suppressed the pounding of his heart while closing his eyes with slight nervousness.

Regarding the punishment game, the spot of the kiss shouldn’t matter.

This was Celis who had serious personality and never had relationship with man, so surely she would kiss at the cheek or forehead.

Right after Lux stood ready for that possibility, his body was violently tilted.

「──Eh?」

Before lips touched his face, he was pushed down by Celis.

The moment Lux opened his eyes in surprise, the inside of his head became pure white.

Right after a feverish sigh touched him──her lustrous and charming lips were pressed on Lux’s mouth.

It was a sensation that was sensual with its softness, just feeling it made him felt like he would be melting.

He was pushed down on the sofa inside the headmaster office with Celis in the posture of covering his body from above. Like that Lux was receiving her kiss.

「Nnh, uu……」

One of her hands was grasping Lux’s hand with her fingers entwining around his. The voluptuous twin hills that Celis had were pressed on Lux’s chest.

The overwhelming volume and the elasticity inside that weak and soft texture.

Her lips, her entwining fingers, her breasts pressing on him.

Everything became intoxicating sweet stimulation that tickled Lux’s sexual desire.

(What’s, this……. My head, is getting strange──)

In contrast with Lux who turned stiff and couldn’t move, Celis gently sucked on Lux’s lips with an expression that looked to be in raptures somewhere.

That caress which was by no means intense or strong, but was only filled with affection was melting Lux’s reasoning into a muddled mess.

Now that Lux’s reluctance toward another person’s good will had gone, he was receiving this stimulation far more than everything before.

「Pu, haa……!」

Celis who was doing it for ten-odd seconds finally released Lux.

She wiped her lips that were moist with saliva while breathing roughly ‘haa haa’.

「Thi, this is strange! It’s just too amazing. So this is──a true kiss? Thi, this kind of thing is not permitted. It’s too lewd!」

The moment Celis murmured that with a half dumbfounded expression, the time of the surrounding that was completely paused started to move.

「THAT’S OUR LINEEE─────────!?」

Starting from Lisha and Tillfur who yelled like that, all the members of Syvalles also gave their own retort.

「Wh, who told you to go that far, Celis? E, even for me that was a bit, too stimulating──」

Sharis also muttered in confusion, while Krulcifer also sending Celis an amazed gaze.

「It looks like, I’m underestimating you too much……」

「Nii-san, get a hold of yourself!」

On the other hand, Airi was shaking Lux who was staring at the ceiling with a dazed look. Beside them Lisha was standing flat-footed looking like her soul was coming out from her mouth.

「Lux is, my, knight though……」

「Will he wake up if he is given ‘chuu’ once more?」

「──Wait, what are you planning to do in the middle of this confusion, this airhead girl!」

Lisha came back to her senses after hearing Philuffy muttering with a serious face and stopped her.

「E, everyone, why are you all so flustered like that!? I, I am just, following the way of kissing that Yoruka taught me yesterday──」

「……!?」

When the red faced Celis yelled that with a flustered tone, everyone’s gaze was focused at the black clothed girl standing at the corner of the room.

「……My? What could be the matter everyone? It’s a matter of kissing with Aruji-sama, so of course, as the foreplay for the act after that, I imparted the knowledge that I know to her──」

The moment Yoruka said that with her expression flashing into a bright smile, everyone’s thinking united into one.

After a short pause, Lisha stepped forward as though to represent that feeling.

–

「SO – IT’S – YO – UR – FA – ULT – HUH───────────!」

–

The soulful angry yell of Lisha echoed inside the school building.

The fun campus festival was over.

Inside that commotion that blew away that loneliness, Lux was starting to build a new relationship with the girls.
