My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

The bubbling of Masink's skin stopped for a few moments and then returned even more intensely. When he opened his mouth, he began to vomit a bizarre black liquid without stopping, forming a gigantic puddle of gooey liquid under his feet in just a few seconds.

Undecided about what they should do, Luke whispered to Alexis:

"Take advantage of the fact that he is standing still and shoot him with THAT skill."

The half-dragon instantly understood that Luke was talking about the skill which she used to get them out of the rubble. Therefore, she held up one hand, pointed to where Masink was standing, and then her right palm began to glow in blue light.

"<Torden Scintillans>!" Alexis shouted.

The beam of energy capable of incinerating anything in its path was launched in the Count's direction. It didn't matter if that liquid was some kind of poison or not; this had to stop being expelled because the red aura around Masink was slowly diminishing, and the liquid seemed to be absorbing it.

However, the S-Class ability was immediately blocked by a hand that came out of this black liquid and protected Masink.

Luckily, the hand wasn't sturdy enough to sustain the continuous damage that Alexis' ability was causing, and it was shattered, exploding into many pieces.

The half-wolf and Alexis stepped back with a jump backward because now they no longer understood what that liquid was. But soon, their questioning was answered.

From the black liquid, several hands appeared, and five creatures emerged. These creatures had the same aura that Masink had a short time ago, only each creature seemed to be even more intimidating than the demon himself.

The largest of these creatures had blue eyes like ice and skin as gray as cement. This was, at best, seven meters tall, with many spines all over its body and a mouth that looked like a spider's.

There was another creature that was also very tall, exceeding four meters in height. This thing had a faceless head and a mandible right in the middle of its stomach. The thing that reversed its muscles and bones could not even be called skin, because everything on it seemed to be as robust as a jasper stone, which has an orange color.

But these two giants didn't seem to be the real problem, rather the three other humanoid figures in front of them.

The humanoid creature that looked like the leader and was in the middle of them all, was a woman with green skin, black hair, and black eyes like the liquid below her feet. She wore an almost transparent garment and a black and lilac cape that dragged on the ground.

At her right side was a man who looked like the personification of cold. This man was ice blue from head to foot, including his skin, eyes, clothes, and hair.

Lastly, the person to the left of the green woman was a man who wore a red cape, and because he was hunchbacked, he was short in stature. He had arms that appeared to be made of wood, and from each small branch coming out of his arms, there was an eye.

Incredibly, the latter was the one that looked almost like a normal person in physiognomy.

"Behold the Legion!" Masink shouted as he fell on his knees, and the black liquid disappeared. "My beautiful sons!"

Alexis immediately used the <Fist of Life> skill to wrap her hands with the gauntlets of light.

"Damn, are they monsters or people?" She wondered aloud.

"Are you seriously asking that? Those things came out of a black liquid expelled by a demon; they certainly aren't people." Luke argued because even if they were people, the way they were looking at the two half-beasts, they were most certainly not on their side. 'The Legion, huh? If they're not demons, they're not immortal.'

The half-wolf didn't want to wait for his enemies to act and immediately swung his axe forward while starting to run towards the five.

"Alexis, go capture Marie! I'll distract those little bastards!" Luke was excited because it had been a long time since he had fought such intimidating-looking monsters.

"Okay!" Alexis agreed; after all, the demons may want to take advantage of this distraction to escape or, worse, use the Demon's Domain to gain full advantage.

At the moment that the three humanoid figures saw Alexis running towards Marie, who was slumped over some rubble, weakened, they immediately ran towards the half-dragon. In contrast, the two giants ran towards Luke, causing loud booms with every step.

However, Luke soon proved to be even faster than they expected. In just a second, he appeared sliding in front of the humanoids.

The gothic-looking woman was the first to try to strike him, and from the fingertips of her right hand, blades thin as nails and long as swords appeared. Luke did not dodge the scratch but hit from below with the Behemoth Axe, precisely ripping off half of the woman's right arm.

However, before Luke could react, he felt something pinning his legs to the ground. He looked down and saw a mixture of ice and roots gripping his legs.

Now, it wasn't just the two giants trying to attack him, but the entire Legion. Luke was managing to accomplish his goal of distracting them, but, at this pace, he could die if he remained trapped.

For that reason, Luke slowed downtime with the <Eye of Horus> ability.

'Okay... what do I do now?' he wondered, analyzing the skills that were trapping his feet.

He could clearly see that the ice and roots were growing and that its two users, the ice humanoid and the hunchbacked humanoid, did not seem to be at least making an effort to achieve such a result. This might indicate that they were much stronger than Luke had expected. Not to mention the hidden abilities they might have that Luke didn't know about.

The half-wolf couldn't look back to see Alexis; however, he was sure she was trusting him, and she was going to try to seal Marie. When she and the demon woman entered the white cube, Luke still needed to protect him.

Masink was still in his scope of vision, and he looked too tired to move, which meant that Luke really only had five opponents.

Luke stared at the Legion for a few seconds, until suddenly something moved faster than expected. This something was transparent and was like a clone of the seven-foot giant.
