My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

Chapter 264 Demon's Seal (Part 2)



Upon hearing Luke Lange's voice, the false demon-count frowned and the smile vanished from his face. Although, Masink understood that Alexis Dmitry was a little stronger than the half-wolf, his irremediable hatred of Luke angered him more than any had angered him all his life, and finding out that the half-wolf already knew his name made him feel even angrier.

Now quiet, the demon tried to start reasoning about ways he might not be killed. 'I've been sealed and released a few times, but I've never met a human who had a chance to kill me... half-wolf son of a bitch. Okay, I have to flatter you, maybe I can negotiate a release.'

"Morax, do you want to be released?" Luke soon asked him, as if reading the demon's mind.

Upon hearing this, both the demon and the emperor looked suspiciously at Luke. They didn't know what to expect from every action of the half-wolf, so they were on their guard.

Moreover, at this moment the demon noticed that he was in an overstuffed dining hall, and at the head of the lavish table was a man of about thirty with black hair and handsome robes. On the right and left sides of this man were five guards in white armor on each side, making him look imposing.

He recognized the armor, and especially the black hair of the man who was the youngest Ruler in history. Realizing where he was made Masink feel many different things at once.

"Do I want to be released? Well, that's a pretty dumb question, but it's not a surprise coming from someone like you, half-beast."

"Haha! Morax, morax... You're very grouchy with me, and that's not stopping you from expanding your vision. Pay attention to your surroundings and see that I am the only one who is thinking rationally and dialoguing with you."

The demon didn't have to try very hard to notice that the expression of hatred stamped on the half-dragon's face was almost tormenting. He knew of her strength, he knew he was trapped, and that they already knew his real name, she was going to kill him as soon as she got the chance.

Masink put both hands on his lower back, and turned to Luke again. "Okay, what do you want?"

"Simple, tell me the First Servant's plan and I will set you free." Answered the half-wolf.

It was more than clear to anyone that Luke's promise was actually a bluff.

"I already told you that no one can speak of the Greatest demon of all time, much less betray him like you are asking me to, I would die sooner or later."

"You know, Beherith thought the same thing. He insisted he wouldn't say anything when we arrested him just like you did, but in the end he made the right decision and was released."

"Beherith?" Morax recognized the name of the demon who once possessed Jean Pollo. "You are lying. Of all the lower demons, Beherith was the most loyal to our lord's plan. He would never say anything to you."

"You are almost right. He is really dead. At first he didn't say anything, and it caused us quite a headache, but after putting some pieces of the puzzle together he noticed that he was just being used by the First Servant to try to hit me, weaken me, or strengthen me, I still don't know.... Believe me when I say he died a peaceful death, a painless death, because he was aware of qu-"

"I don't care what a lower demon did or didn't do. He is a disgrace if he really chose to betray us.... I won't say anything even if they choose to kill me."

The half-dragon snorted upon hearing these stubborn words being spoken by the demon, and then she summoned her green bird once again, because she didn't want to waste any more time. From within the bird's feathers, she pulled out another white cube, whose glow startled Morax.

The demon in the circle initially thought Alexis was going to seal it again, but as another conception arose in his mind, he heard the half-dragon inquire:

"Have you ever wondered how Marie ended up after you were sealed?"

Alexis' question echoed in the demon's mind hundreds of times in a second, leaving him a little stunned. "She couldn't get away?" He refused to believe it.

"Do you think she could resist my sealing and strength in the state you abandoned her?"

"Shit..." Masink removed his hands positioned on his lower back on a whim, and began to gnaw the nail of his right index finger, expressing for good his nervousness, which until then had been disguised. "Do you guys know her name? I mean, her real name?"

"Do we know?" Alexis bluffed. "If you want, we can put her in a magic circle just like you, and from there we can see who speaks first. I bet the imperial guards have a lot of powerful abilities that would cause her tremendous pain."

Unusually, this was the first time many of the group had seen Alexis act sadistically.

"Okay, okay, I will tell you all about it. Sigh..."

Alexis and Luke exchanged glances, and smiled briefly at each other, with the feeling of victory in a mind game against this demon.

This was the first time many of the group had seen Alexis act sadistically, but they were not startled, but rather impressed.

"Tell me what the First Servant's plan for Broteforge is." Luke ordered, not asked.

"The Demon Lord wishes the world to be more like Dungeons. To do this he infiltrated the Melki Empire three hundred years ago, used many different names and receptacles, until he got the perfect receptacle for himself. The Dungeons on half the continent were broken, and ironically the monsters stopped appearing there and started appearing on the surface. He says that seeing the whole world in chaos is nothing but a step towards his goal," replied Morax.

"And he wants to turn the Broteforge Empire into that too?" The Emperor asked, completely interested and confident in the misgivings the half-wolf earlier pointed out.

"Of course he does. That nation is one of the five great nations of the world, and it's on the second largest continent. If it dominates Broteforge, only the sea will be in the way of world chaos."
