My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

Chapter 96 The Leftovers

Luke looked at the two boys in shock in front of him and did what Nathalia would have done. He helped them before he called the other problems. Using the point of his fingers, which were still covered in blood, he cut the ropes that bound the two and then let them take off their gags by themselves.

"Fuck! You're pretty fucked up bro, thanks a lot!"

"What the hell was that, bro?"

"I don't know, but I've never seen anything like it, Anne just went crazy overnight!"

"Not to mention that creepy thick voice."

"No calming down, please." Luke requested, after enduring the two chatterers for seconds long enough. "Did you guys know the girl?"

"If we knew her!?"

"What did you do with her!?"

"Did you exorcise her?

"Did you kill her?

"I killed her. A demon was using her body as a receptacle." The half-wolf explained the situation as he wiped the excess blood from his hand on the inside of his cloak. "There was no other way."

"A demon?"

"Shit! Not another one..."

"Wait a minute! Did you say a demon!?"

"Shit... first Rodrigo, now Anne..."

Luke huffed, stressed and tired. "Just stop with the litany of you two. I don't have time for this. Get up, and let's go. I'll leave you two somewhere safe."

The inn was at least a few hours' drive from any nearby towns, so Luke didn't feel it would be right to leave them there. The two young men nodded to the half-wolf and stood up, avoiding looking at the corpse of their former friend on the floor of the room.

The smell of the place was now as rotten as ever. There was an acidic mixture of stale blood with demon slurry and alcohol in the air.

When Alexis saw the half-wolf leave without any injuries, she judged him as someone to really keep an eye on since he would prove to be a tremendous beast in the future. Following him were two boys just over six feet tall; they had the same physique, same skin tone, same hair color, and even the shocking expression they displayed were almost the same. The only thing that made them different was their haircuts.

"How was it?" The half-dragon asked excitedly, not noticing the look of anger Luke had on his face.

"I'm not going to talk about it in front of them. Let's get going." Luke said and walked past the half-dragon, starting to follow the barren dirt road.

Alexis didn't understand the reason for such stress, but she wasn't the one who expressed dissatisfaction.

"Hey, wait a minute! We have to burn our friends' bodies."

"Yeah, they were just traveling companions, but we were together for many months and went through a lot." The twins said, stopping from following the half-wolf almost at the same time.

Luke looked back, snorted, and replied, "Whatever...Just don't take too long."

"Lucky I hid the flint under the seat that last night."

"Are you sure? I saw Rodrigo picking it up afterward."

"Really?"

The two young men ran to the carriage and began to rummage through it. It was not spacious at all; for that reason, they were able to find what they were looking for in a few seconds.

"Aren't you going to help them with the corpses?" Luke asked Alexis as she sat down next to him on the floor, a little ways away from the inn.

"Actually, I'd rather you tell me what happened in there. You look different."

Luke snorted once again. "Everything went well, I managed to kill the damn thing. He told me that the demons running the occultists of the Chaos Followers, and he also said a lot of other things."

"Okay, but I wasn't referring to that. Did he say something personal? Something that offended you or reminded you of something?"

"Remember when I told you that I had made a contract with 'Chaos'? Then today I found out that it was with a certain First Servant. And apparently, I broke that contract a few minutes ago, and for that, he threatened my family."

"Fuck... And if the demons are behind even the Chaos Followers, everything just got worse. They have a lot of influence in the underworld."

"Apparently, this First Servant guy already knew months before that I was going to Vasconcelos. He gave Beherith several missions and one of them was to try to make me a receptacle."

Then, as the twins grudgingly brought the corpses out of the inn, the half-wolf told absolutely everything that happened inside the establishment.

In the end, any and all information he was able to extract was more useful after Alexis and the Cardinal Church helped, and Luke felt he should repay them, even though he now found himself in a major stalemate for having killed a demon.

Alexis was chilled at the thought that even her going to Vasconcelos may have been foreseen because even she didn't plan to stay so long. Her initial intention was just to spend the night.

"This First Servant guy must be strong, much stronger than any demon apparently... But if he already knew all this was going to happen, why does he want you on the opposite side of him? He even sacrificed a being of his own race. What is the reason for this? You are strong, skilled, and talented, the normal thing would be for a demon to persuade you, no?"

"I don't know... I just know that I need to protect my family. I wouldn't forgive myself if something happened to them." The half-wolf rose from the ground and clenched his fists. Unlike when the First Servant was present, he now had a serious and focused expression.

"Are you sure? Apparently, that's exactly what he wants."

"I've always been in shit situations, I can't believe I almost forgot about it... I have been inside the board of a demon before, if we are inside the board of this First Servant, I will make sure to kill him, even if I die in the process."

Next, Luke pulled the black orb whose size was similar to a marble ball out of his pocket and placed it in his mouth.

[The Beherith Demon Gene has been ingested. You received the following Panspermia Weapon: Behemoth Axe.

Class: Epic.]

The half-wolf was almost disappointed when he heard that he didn't receive a new ability, except that as soon as he summoned the Behemoth Axe for the first time, he smiled with trepidation to use it.
