My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

The tip of this man's dagger glinted in the glow of the arena, which was being illuminated by a magical light, which did not come from a specific place, but was spread all over the place. After this man pulled his knife from its sheath, he continued in the same animalistic position.

The half-dragon looked at him as if she was bored, because she had faced hundreds of monsters far more terrifying than this man in the depths of the Cardinal Realm Dungeon.

Then, without so much as an announcement or a call, the battle began with a fierce thrust from Alexis' opponent.

He put the handle of the dagger in his mouth and dashed forward in a single motion, aiming to cut the belly of the half-beast as he approached.

However, the woman with the glowing horns disappeared in front of his eyes, and appeared in the next instant to his left. The man's eyes widened before a single punch from the S-Class was enough to knock him to the ground.

BOOOM!

The blow that Alexis Dmitry landed on the man's face was so overwhelming, it created the sound of an explosion, which resonated throughout the vast sewer system.

The sight of the man passed out at her feet made it all the more impactful. This had been her first and only punch in the battle, and yet it was enough to put her opponent in the dream world. The overwhelming silence of the crowd made the whole situation even more unsettling.

Everyone wondered what had happened before their eyes, because they had never seen someone move so fast that they were bewildered as to which direction.

When everyone finally realized that what they watched was real, they shouted excitedly, especially those who bet on the half-dragon.

"I knew she would win, she's a S-Class!"

"This woman is too fucked up!"

"I want to marry her and become her puppy!"

"She just disappeared and then POW! Oh, man! That was pretty good!"

Alexis was also confused as to how easy the battle was. She certainly knew that she could beat any opponent who stepped foot in an underground ring, but she didn't expect that she would win with just one punch and that her opponent wouldn't even try to react.

'Alright, alright... This was just the debut fight on the first level, maybe the next ones will be better.' She deduced, a little hopeful to say the least. She wanted to have some exciting battle or an interesting opponent.

To the half-dragon's happiness, her request was granted, but not with the announcement of a new battle in a few minutes but with the opening of the Cage's bars once again. As soon as the iron bars were raised, she saw a sextet of heavily armed men step forward to enter the battle arena.

'That's said I'm talking~.' Alexis was grateful because she had also promised Luke that she would be able to buy some time so that he and the others could act calmly.

Each of these adventurers were wearing shining armor, adorned with the purest and most powerful metals available on the market. Just by looking at them from afar it was possible to notice that these armors were of Panspermia, that is, the best type of armor there is, even than most obsidian armor.

In addition, each man in this sextet wielded a different weapon, also all of the Panspermia, denoting the will to win that Straw Hat had, who had bet a lot of his own money on the victory of his main Cage winners. To him, even if this was an S-Class, it would be impossible for the half-dragon to win against this group of experienced Adventurers.

The half-dragon looked at each of the men who entered the arena and smiled, because she knew that at last she would have a real challenge. In this sextet, there was an archer, a mage, two swordsmen, a squire and a tank.

"Look, look what we have here~." One of the swordsmen spoke as he stepped into the ring with his arms outstretched. He had a smile on his face as well as his allies. "I wonder if the little girl is lost. I'm afraid she got the path to the Dungeon a little wrong."

Alexis put both hands on his waist, and replied at his height: "Really? I thought I was in a den of lower Goblins, and now I wonder if I mistook the path when I asked your dumb mother for guidance."

The half-dragon's words made the audience roar and laugh, because the smiles on each of the men's faces simply wilted.

Then, the swordsman who insulted her first pointed his one-handed sword at her and stated, "When you are agonizing in pain here, about to die, know that no one will show up to help you! This is hell and everyone here only wants to see blood and pain, so don't underestimate us!"

The man's speech also excited the crowd. Among the hundreds of people, there were a few dozen who bet against it, because they knew these men and knew what they were capable of. These people started shouting for a victory desperately, increasing the tension in the atmosphere, which didn't bother Alexis a bit, it just made her more excited.

The half-dragon took one last look at her opponents and the battle composition they were using, before finally charging towards them.

Just like in the previous round, the S-Class disappeared before everyone's eyes in an instant. The audience only noticed her presence again when they heard the clang of her fists meeting the tank's massive two-handed shield, which protected the secondary swordsman from certain death.

This collision of Alexis and the tank generated an intense gale in the room, which shook the hair of the spectators.

Unfortunately for the tank, its defense was not enough to stop the S-Class' momentum, which soon after colliding with it saw an opening created by the big man's sloppy footwork.

Seeing the tank's feet being exposed parallel to the shield, she spun her body around and delivered a swift footstep powerful enough to knock him to the ground. The man fell to the ground in his heavy armor and, when he blinked, he saw Class-S jumping on him, with an excited smile on his face.

'Fuck, she's a monster!' he thought, startled. In all his years of experience, his defense had never been taken down so easily, not even in the times he faced floor bosses.

Jumping over the tank, Alexis had full opportunity to attack the swordsman he was protecting, but her shrewd eyes noticed the tensioned string of the archer's bow, so she was forced to retreat.

'Shit, this is a big group, and they are good. Each of them is covering for their partners' shortcomings.' She judged as she stepped back.

With the arrow already positioned on the string, and with the string already tensioned, the archer almost managed to catch the S-Class unnoticed as she passed through the tank, but when she suddenly retreated and the archer tried to follow her with his aim, he realized that the half-dragon was purposely hiding behind the swordsman. The truth was that this retreat of the half-dragon was a feint for her to get in the way of the archer.

Since the bowstring was heavy and tensioned, when the S-Class moved out of his sights, he instinctively eased the force he was using on his arms and consequently and lowered his bow to move. At that moment of the archer's distraction, Alexis made a leap upwards and a dash in mid-air, leaping over the swordsman who was supposed to protect the most vulnerable member of the group.

The archer suddenly saw everything get darker and a shadow appear over his face. He looked up and saw the half-dragon with his fingers of his hands crossed, about to take a swing at him.

'Oh, god...' He thought for a millisecond before he was hit by the half-dragon's blow.

Just like his opponent from the previous battle, the archer collapsed with just one attack from Alexis.

The truth was that not only was her speed spectacular, but also her strength. Still, for the swordsman who had been taunting the S-Class for a few seconds, her main strength was her fluid and abnormal movement.

Striking the archer in the head and seeing him fall to the ground, Alexis tossed her red hair to the side as she turned to look at the swordsman behind her. There were still five opponents left, but she was in a special mood to knock out this man, whose eyes were now flickering with fear.

She tensed her knees again to make another thrust toward him, but this time the group organized itself more quickly than when the tank was knocked over.

The squire slid into the vanguard of the swordsman-principal, and was soon followed by the secondary swordsman and the mage.

The tank rose up behind them, giving the group a cool look that excited the crowd. They wanted an exciting battle, and they were having it, even with Alexis giving up the use of her Gene Skills to make the fight last longer.

However, even with the adventurers' grandiose act of managing to stand their ground against a powerful S-Class, the Straw Hat knew that they couldn't hold out much longer, so he was increasingly idle.
