Seeing the smooth cooperation between the girls, I quickly turned to face Fatima. She did fire two shots in a row, so usually that would mean her arm was severely damaged.
"Let me see your arm..."
I walked closer to her, touching her arm, and checked for damage to her energy circuits. However, I found none.
"...?"
I was confused, but Fatima simply smiled at me, chuckling as she explained.
"I'm now at the 4th stage, so I'm a lot more nimble than before. I can take care of the recoil perfectly now. I wasn't a god-tamer before just for show!"
"You mean, you can fire those powerful rounds without a drawback now?!"
Rather, when did you reach the fourth stage? I didn't even notice!
Looking closely, there's even a weird attachment to her arm, leading to her back. Something like a support or a recoil disperser, perhaps? Anyway, that must be the reason why she suffered little to no damage from the recoil.
