My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

Chapter 58 Demon

The demon's face was all disfigured. His mouth was full of crooked and pointed teeth, which made his lower jaw much larger than his upper jaw. His eyes were white, in a tone well-matched to the rest of his body, but his nose... well, there was no nose.

Surprised that the half-beast could stand upright after picking for hours in his own Domain, the demon roared when he saw it coming towards him.

"Roaaaaaaaaaaaar!"

This roar sounded like a taunt to Luke, and although he was in great disgust with that monster, he decided not to attack it immediately.

As soon as he got close enough, he threw another gust of wind at the big guy and slid underneath with the help of the cave dust, aiming to reach his sword that was between the demon's legs.

However, the <Vind> did not affect the demon's thick skin, which smiled wryly as it received the light breeze. Then, just as he was about to sneer at Luke, a blue beam hit him directly in the chest. Tzóóóóómmm!

The whole room began to shake at that moment, and some rocks from the ceiling plummeted to the ground, causing, even more, bangs all around.

Luke looked up and saw a bright beam, shining brightly through the chamber, pass close to his face. As it reflected on his yellowish retina, the half-wolf was amazed that this magic was coming from just one person. This girl was certainly not normal.

"Is that the kind of cover you want?" The girl questioned him, smiling. She barely hit Luke with the <Torden Scintillans> magic.

"Are you kidding? That was insane!" He answered her, returning a smile she hadn't expected; for that reason, she was also proud of her achievement.

In the direction where the demon was, there was now a deep tunnel, and if that wasn't impressive, the magic even managed to be heard from several of the surrounding floors.

"What the fuck was that?" A Class C Adventurer, who was on the fifth floor, asked his companions.

"I don't even want to know... It was similar to what happened a few days ago, right?"

"I wonder if there are any Class-A's in Vasconcelos now, maybe they're testing their skills."

"What would a Class-A be doing here? This Dungeon doesn't even have chests or treasures like these folks seek."

"Are you still having the bedtime stories your mom used to tell you in your head? What a baby boy..."

"Oh, shut up."

What that little group didn't know, however, was that a few floors up, there was a real demon, the kind that would put the demons in horror stories on the run.

From the deep tunnel in that cavernous room, just below the second floor, heavy footsteps echoed, and the breathing of their creator could easily be heard.

Luke gripped the hilt of his sword tightly as he saw that his blade was in pieces, which made him even angrier with that monster.

It was no easy task to annoy the half-wolf, and those who succeeded never stayed alive for too long.

"I'll distract him, and you get ready to do that 'seal' thing you said." The boy spoke.

The angry feeling didn't let him think clearly; still, he wasn't the type who would leave all the work to someone else, even if a demon is his opponent.

The girl giggled and took a few steps back to prepare for the sealing. She didn't doubt that the man was strong since his aura was quite impressive, but his injuries worried her.

Demons are not easy opponents even for Class-A Adventurers, and because they are so rare and hard to find, few people know how to defeat them.

The moment the demon put a hand of only three fingers out of the tunnel, he was met by a kick to the chin, which, although it caused damage, was not as effective. However, Luke did not give up and promptly took advantage of the big man's slowness to attack him once with his sword. Since the sword's blade was broken in half, it didn't do much damage either.

Bommmp! The demon threw Luke away with a slap as if the half-wolf was merely a fly.

"I've already lost interest in you. I want her now."

The girl stood with her eyes closed near the giant door as she concentrated to use the spell learned in the Main Church of the Cardinal Kingdom.

Luke stood up and said to the creature:

"In the end, I guess you just can't kill me, can you? You've tried so hard so far, maybe you are just weak."

The demon looked back under his shoulder, seeing the half-wolf glaring at him, and because of that, he couldn't help but smile in satisfaction.

"Hmph... Now I understand why HE wants you so badly!"

Next, the monster struck Luke with his lizard tail. However, unlike the satisfying sound of the man flying into the wall, the demon felt his tail being stopped by something.

As soon as he looked back, he saw that the half-wolf managed to hold the blow with the help of both arms while holding the sword handle with his mouth.

With a grin on his face, Luke turned one of his hands as sharp as blades and sliced away the monster's tail with a single attack as he shouted.

"Aaaaaaaaaah!" he exclaimed in anger. SHAAACK! "Huf... If you keep underestimating me, you'll end up dead without having to tell me your name."

"Son of a Bitc—!"

With the creature's tail in his hands, Luke used it to strike him. BLAM! It hit straight on and repelled the demon backward. Without giving it time to recover, Luke delivered another blow. BLAM!

Opening her eyes again, the girl saw from afar the monster being hit without recess and was surprised by the half-wolf bloodlust.

'He really is managing to distract the demon...'

When the demon finally got tired of the catch with no time to defend, he returned to his ethereal, ghostly form. The half-wolf was losing his advantage. The tail, which was in Luke's hand, turned to smoke as well and blended with the shadow.

"You're pushy, moron kid!" He shouted, extremely irritated.

"What? Are you afraid? Get your ass in the fight!" Luke taunted him, raising his fists to put up a guard.

But then the man heard the girl's footsteps approaching from behind, and after that, he felt the girl's right hand, which had many calluses, touch his left shoulder.

He looked to the side and saw that she was carrying a box.

"W-what is that!?" The demon questioned her.

"Leave the rest to me, sir." She said to the half-wolf.
