My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

Chapter 59 Sealing

As soon as the girl asked Luke to rest, he knelt down and propped himself up with the remains of his blade.

"You're able to handle it alone?" he questioned her as the Demon hovered a few feet above them.

"Are you kidding? I kill at least one Demon a month, so sealing one won't be hard at all." She replied, and then a gauntlet appeared in each hand, both only made of light.

Then the girl's leap upwards resembled more of teleportation because, during a blink of an eye, she had already appeared in front of the Demon. Holding a small cube in her left hand, she struck the Demon, and in a pulse of power, they both vanished into thin air.

In front of the half-wolf fell the cube she held before, now flashing between black and white. Luke already trusted the girl and felt that this had not been a suicide, so he waited patiently in front of the cube.

Sealings are, above all, mental battles; for this reason, it is also not possible to seal most monsters since they have no consciousness; however, the case of demons is different.

Forced to relive their memories, the Demon and the girl have been thrown into a once distant and now very real past.

As part of the sealing, both were unaware that sealing was taking place, and the one who allowed himself to be trapped in this cycle of memories would then be sealed.

"Do it soon! Clean up here too!"

Every day, at Dmitry home, was noisy. This was because Alexis' mother was not an easy person to deal with and also abused the girl's energy a lot.

"Ah! And don't forget this here!" She shouted to the little girl while pointing to a small pot with withered plants. "I can't believe you forgot to take care of the plants. That's unacceptable!"

The little girl didn't open her mouth to say a word and continued cleaning everything as ordered with a smile on her face. She was only five years old, and yet she worked in that huge house from morning until dusk every day for the past few months.

Alexis didn't mind tidying up; she was just happy that she now had a person to spend the whole day with. Since she was newly adopted, she also didn't want to complain for fear of being returned to the orphanage.

However, her peaceful life was utterly transformed within a few weeks. During sunset, a group of men on horseback stopped in front of the house. The madam promptly went to attend to them, and Alexis continued cleaning the guest bathroom.

A few minutes passed until the girl came out of the bathroom to get clean water from the well in the back of the house, so she passed near the entrance room and heard the following conversation:

"You've owed us for a long time, you have to pay even the minimum per month." The man with the hat and beard vociferated, sitting down on one of the white couches.

"You have great furniture and a great house. Why don't you sell something soon and pay us back?" Another man spoke, analyzing the paintings on the walls and crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling.

"Well... It's only forty gold coins, or if you want, we can get it in silver coins too, it would only be twenty thousand silver coins."

The woman, who was tapping her foot on the floor in nervousness, was very hasty about everything in that house and was already regretting having bet so much on Kaloru's games.

However, as soon as she caught a glimpse of Alexis walking by, she had an idea.

"Hey, you! Come here! No, drop that there!" she said, after seeing that she was carrying the bucket with her as well.

The men, who were wearing metal hats and boots, looked curiously at the little red-haired girl and noticed small horns sticking out of her head. They were mostly red, but both of them had a yellowish crack.

"She's a half-dragon! Surely, she would serve to repay our debt, wouldn't she?" The Madame said dashingly. Even though she didn't believe that this idea could work, she tried her luck.

The one who seemed to be the leader got up from the couch, looked at the little girl, and questioned her:

"Do you wish this?"

Alexis, whose eyes were overflowing with tears at the woman's words, looked at her angrily.

"Hmph... That's answer enough. Runaway."

"What?! No, no!" The woman screamed in desperation. "If she runs away, our debt—" Tiim! Her screams were interrupted by the drawing of a knife.

Frightened, the little girl began to run to the back of the house, and in the middle of the way, she even tripped over the bucket she had dropped, yet she got up and ran again, without stopping.

For some reason unknown to her, as soon as she heard the word 'Run', she felt deep happiness.

After jumping over the fence at the back of the house, Alexis Dmitry ran and ran and ran until her little legs failed and the soles of her feet hurt. Since she wore only a simple stay-at-home dress, the first few nights were rough.

One day, while wandering along a roadside, a caravan stopped beside her. All the men in it wore polished and powerful armor, with a moon painted on their backs.

From the largest carriage, a priestess of the Cardinal Church stepped out and extended her hand to the half-dragon. Behind her, there was still another little girl with pink hair and a fearful look.

That was the reason Alexis Dmitry did not fear the seals. She had no regrets from the past, nor from her more shameful and submissive phase, and she also never had anger for being born a half-beast. She was just grateful that she was welcomed by the Cardinal Kingdom, to the point of becoming a crucial member of them.

However, the Demon's life was not so lucky because even though he had been a human for thousands of years, he gave in to the temptations of his desires and wickedness, to the point of being personally recruited by Chaos.

Precisely because he had been trapped for so long in a Dungeon, which is the territory of the entity he served so well, he knew the things that this evil and superior being desired. And the human part within, even if minimal from his birth, created an inkling of a doubt about his servitude to Chaos, and this was the reason for his sealing.

After a little over five minutes, Alexis was finally ejected out of the cube, falling on top of Luke. The half-wolf, surprised and happy, almost had a nosebleed when he opened his eyes and saw the half-dragon's breasts stuck to his face.

"Ouch, ouch..." She complained as she stood up. "I've gotten rusty since last time. I Just got a headache..."

With his ears reddening, Luke avoided looking her in the eye after the situation.

"What happened?"

"Aaann... N-nothing, I was just impressed with you." That wasn't exactly a lie because the girl impressed him in every way.
