しばたたかせる=しばたたく?

Hi. Please have a look at the circled part.
Is the しばたたかせる the same as しばたたく here (because the latter is already a transitive verb)?
Thank you.

Both would mean "Shidou blinked his eyes", if that's what you're asking.

Thank you, Chris.
But why the writer chose しばたたかせ when he could have used しばたたき? Is there any difference between しばたたかせる and しばたたく in this context?

Wouldn't that be the same as here?

I think they are the same. I'm more familiar with しばたたかせる, or rather, I've ever only seen/heard it, but the search result in a corpus shows that both are equally used in the same meaning.

Thank you both.

Yes, I remember this thread. I was just not sure if it is the same as this case in op.
