My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

When Luke opened his eyes, he saw Alexis Dmitry looking down with strained eyebrows, as if she was distressed. She had her hands on her thighs and sat next to the half-wolf, waiting for him awake.

Almost like in slow motion, Luke saw Alexis\' anxious expression turn into the purest semblance of happiness. It made his heart flutter.

"You woke up!" She exclaimed and hugged Luke, who was still lying on the floor.

Because of the excitement, Alexis didn\'t even realize that she was pressing her breasts against the half-wolf. Luke flushed and hugged her back too, relieved that he could free himself from the seal.

"We made it, didn\'t we?" He asked, with his voice a little weak.

Fighting against the Legion had managed to almost push him to his physical limit, as well as the use of the Skill <Eye of Horus> and the Sealing had pushed his mind to the extreme.

Luke was exhausted as never before.

After hearing the half-wolf\'s questioning, Alexis responded with a frantic nod, turned around, and opened a small leather bag, which inside were two white cubes of thirty centimeters each.

"You were ejected from the cube thirty minutes ago, and since then, you have been sleeping... I was apprehensive." Throwing a lock of hair behind her right ear, Alexis spoke, avoiding eye contact.

Luke had the strength to lift only his back and was now sitting in front of half-dragon. "I appreciate the concern. I was lucky that I had you here." Luke stated and placed his left hand on her head. "I guess you are being my good luck charm... since the day I met you, I haven\'t known what defeats are..." He petted her head, between the two horns.

Alexis loved being petted, but that wasn\'t enough for her alone anymore. "But I don\'t want to be just your charm..." She murmured, with her cheeks full and a slightly frustrated look on her face.

"What did you say?" asked Luke as he removed his hand from her head. He heard her very well; he just didn\'t understand what she meant.

"I said I want to be your girlfriend!" Alexis declared, loud enough for everyone around the hill could hear.

Just then, the first rays of sunlight appeared on the horizon and in the sea.

\'Wait... did I really say that so loudly?\' she wondered, surprised at herself for finally getting her feelings out in public.

The half-dragon looked forward to see Luke\'s reaction and saw him totally dumbfounded.

"Don\'t-don\'t feel pressured to give me an answer!" She spoke, shaking her hands forward with a flushed face. "I know you\'re dating Ayumi and all that..."

Although his heart was speedy, Luke remained calm. He turned to Alexis and spoke:

"I can\'t accept your dating proposal, not when I\'m engaged to Ayumi and haven\'t seen her in months..." Luke spoke, avoiding looking her in the eye.

"You\'re engaged to Ayumi!? T-then forget what I said." Alexis was still very euphoric.

"Wait, I\'m not finished yet..." Luke requested of her, and the half-dragon calmed down when he took her hands. Then Luke gathered the courage to look her in the eye and say, "I like you too, and I want to touch and kiss you. Only I don\'t know if what I feel is something genuine or if it\'s the longing to have a woman in my arms. So, can you wait for my answer for a while? At least until we get back to Oukiwa... I know this may be a selfish and sordid request—"

Before Luke could finish his phrase, the half-dragon interrupted him. "I will wait for you for as long as it takes!" She shouted with her eyes closed.

The half-wolf was extremely pleased and surprised by this response. He understood that perhaps he was being unfair and a scoundrel to both Ayumi Yamazaki and Alexis Dmitry; however, he couldn\'t lie to himself anymore.

After that, the half-dragon helped Luke to stand up.

"Do you think you can use your inventory skill to get a healing potion for yourself?" she questioned, seeing how detuned Luke appeared.

Although Luke had managed to dodge virtually every attack from both the Legion and also Masink and Marie, he had still been hit by powerful blows a few times.

"I\'m practically undamaged. What about you? Ann... I have more than one advanced healing potion here if you want..."

"I couldn\'t possibly reject that." She spoke, trying her best to contain the smile on her face that her confession was practically accepted.

Then, Luke focused on the feel of the Skill <Normal Inventory>. After a little effort, the yellow square appeared in front of them, and Luke clicked on the healing potions icon. However, he lied because he didn\'t have two healing potions, only one, so he waited for the half-dragon to drink the advanced healing potion and then took an intermediate healing potion, without letting her see it. He could take another intermediate healing potion in a few hours, and everything would be fine.

After that, they both spread out around the grounds of the Mansion and started looking for other documents that might give more information about what Masink and Marie were doing so far away from the Melki Empire.

Thanks to his sense of smell, Luke quickly found the same animal body that seemed to mix several species. This corpse was under a lot of rubble, but with the enormous strength of the half-dragon, it was easy to remove it from there.

"Damn... that stinks..." She expressed, as she threw aside the piece of wall that was preventing the smell of this body from spreading.

Luke covered his nose with his right hand and approached the animal\'s corpse. "This is the strangest thing I\'ve seen in months. Do you know what it is?" The half-wolf asked the half-dragon and crouched down beside that corpse to look closer.

"I don\'t know..." The S-Class said initially; however, suddenly, a snap ran through her mind, making her remember something she had seen in the past. "Wait... that could be a Chimera."

"What is that?" Luke questioned. He remembered that something like that was written on the letter he picked up in the demons\' office, but he had no idea what it could mean.

"Chimeras are creatures created by crazy people who try to fuse animals with monsters. In the past, there have been many debates about how this was morally and ethically wrong. As a result, almost every government in the world has banned this type of study. So far as I know, they never managed to create a specimen that managed to stay alive for more than a few seconds, so the animals were tortured for nothing until they died."

"So maybe Marie and Masink were studying this to try to pleasure the First Servant?"

"Why do you think that?"

Then, Luke pulled the letter that Marie wrote from one of his overcoat pockets and passed it to the half-dragon\'s hands.
