Chapter 282 - A Strange Date Between Him And Her

Chapter 282: A Strange Date Between Him and Her

Translator: ChubbyCheeks

PR: MattForgenti

Baphomet was one of the Demon World’s Seven Great Demonic Beasts that was summoned by the Pharaoh’s Envoy. Minhyuk had used his ‘Allurer’s Cooking Skill’ on Baphomet and succeeded in taming him. Minhyuk even gave him the name ‘Rune’. Just like when he appeared in Athenae: Korean War, Rune had always appeared as his miniature version ever since he became Minhyuk’s pet. But right now, he emerged in his complete form.

Rune swept his bangs(?) up. Queen Baphomet looked both shy and ecstatic as she watched him.

Meanwhile, Ankheseramun was just staring at this scene with a bewildered expression on her face. Then, Queen Baphomet approached her.

In fact, Queen Baphomet and Ankheseramun could not communicate. However, they were able to achieve some sort of ‘empathy’ between each other. And right now, she was sending a signal through their empathy to Ankheseramun.

‘I like him.’

“......”

Did she really go crazy?

Minhyuk couldn’t help but chuckle as he watched the scene in front of him.

He had heard a lot of information about Ankheseramun from Aruvel. According to Aruvel, Ankheseramun was a wise and powerful ruler. Originally, this territory was like hell on earth. It was a land where demons and demonic beasts couldn’t live on at all. It was a place where not even a single drop of rain fell, so many would wonder how one could survive in this place, right? However, she was a woman who successfully established her home in this place. She even ruled over hundreds of thousands of demons in this land. That was how powerful she was.

But what was even more surprising was this one thing that Minhyuk knew about her.

‘She’s the daughter of the Demon King.’

She was the daughter of the current Demon King, Alberdo. However, this was something that only a select few knew about. And right now was the perfect time to gain the favor of the Demon King’s daughter.

Ankheseramun easily schooled her bewildered expression to her usual cold and intelligent look.

‘I should first check if this human punk is lying or not.’

This man had spoken about water, something that was essential to their territory, just so he could meet with her. If his words were a lie, then she would not give him any rewards nor agree to any of his requests. And even if it was disgraceful and violated her honor, she would kill him right there and then.

“You have to first prove that you can provide us with water. If it’s just a very small amount of water that you can only create temporarily then I’ll make you regret everything.”

Minhyuk nodded his head.

“May I come closer for a moment?”

“Alright.”

Then, Minhyuk approached her step by step before handing her a ring. The ring was none other than ‘Roves’ Ring’. Roves’ Ring was a ring that had a special power that allowed him to create a huge tidal wave. If Roves’ tidal wave was used in a place that was large enough to accommodate such a gigantic tidal wave then their month-long drought would certainly be resolved right now.

She nodded her head when she saw the information on the ring.

‘It’s true.’

So what was left was the matter between Queen Baphomet and Rune.

“I think that being is your pet. Why don’t you sell it to me?”

When he heard her words, Minyuk just gently shook his head.

The first rule of business! If there’s something that a person really needs then raise it’s value!

“I’m sorry but this Baphomet, Rune, is a comrade that has gone on life and death experiences with me. Selling him at a price...... absolutely impossible. If this child dies then I die with him! I have to follow his wishes!”

His communication skills right now were so brilliant that he could even sell the water made from Roves’ tidal wave for 1 platinum per liter.

So what did Rune really mean to Minhyuk? From what he had said, he was not that special of an existence to him.

“......Is that so?”

She looked a bit embarrassed after hearing his words. That was when the two of them found a point for negotiation.

“Queen Baphomet seems to have a crush on your pet named Rune but she is a very meticulous being. In fact, I still am not sure if they will really love each other just because they are together. After all, Queen Baphomet is a pure and noble being.”

That was right. That was the reason why she did not have a mate despite the plenty of Baphomets present in this place. In fact, if she did not fall in love with them then she wouldn’t even think about staying with them at all. And even though she always fell in love at first sight, her naiveness and purity still remained beautiful and noble. She would only give her body and heart to the Baphomet that she had truly fallen in love with.

“Help these two mate. If you let them mate and raise their satisfaction then I’ll give you a treasure in this territory. And if you get the highest satisfaction, I’ll give you the golden crown.”

At that moment, a quest window popped in front of Minhyuk.

[Quest: Plan a Date Course for Him and Her.]

Rank: SS

Restrictions: The one who owns Baphomet.

Rewards: If the mating succeeds, you will receive one of the territory’s treasures. If you achieve 100% satisfaction, you will be able to receive the fragment of the golden crown.

Description: Queen Baphomet is a woman living a tragic life. She has lived her entire 200 years of life being single and alone. Help her have a satisfying date and hot night with Rune!!!

It was a very strange and interesting quest. However, additional notifications followed not long after.

[This is a quest for additional rewards.]

[If Baphomet Rune successfully mates with Queen Baphomet and receives her vitality, Rune will evolve.]

“......!”

Will Rune evolve if he receives her vitality?

From beginning to end, it was a very strange and unusual quest.

“If I succeed, I ask my lady to give me the most delicious food that you are proud of.”

Minhyuk had heard a lot of information from Aruvel and knew two things about the delicious food that could be found here. The first one was related to Queen Baphomet.

Discuss.

Have a pleasant discussion.

Read some books.

“......”

“......”

“......”

Everyone else was also left speechless. Minhyuk was sure that Aruvel was someone who learned mating through books and writings! This was the moment when they all realized why he had been single even after living for a thousand years.

“Meeeeeeeeeeeh―”

This time, it was Rune who stepped up. Since Rune couldn’t write anything down, he asked Kongie for help and conveyed his thoughts to him. And since Minhyuk could understand Kongie’s words, he spoke up what he heard from Kongie.

“1. As soon as you wake up in the morning, give a hug and start a hot morning. 2. Give a deep kiss at lunch and spend more hot moments together. 3. In the evening, in bed...... Wait! Everything you said is weird!!!”

Minhyuk realized that Rune was only cute and adorable when he was in a pet state. But it seemed like he was a ‘Pervert Rune’ through and through.

In the end, Kongie watched them as he smiled confidently. Then, everyone checked what Kongie had written. Looking at what he wrote, the word strange floated in everyone’s heads. However, this was the most normal dating course that had been proposed compared to the other three proposals.

“I, I guess this is the best that we can do.”

“There’s definitely something strange with this but this has been the most normal proposal......”

“Meeeeeeeeeeeh―”

In the end, they decided to follow Kongie’s dating course. Then, the thought that popped in Minhyuk’s head was......

‘We’re doomed.....’

Kongie’s proposal was chosen because it was the most normal out of all their proposals. But in fact, Kongie’s proposal was also very strange. At this point, Minhyuk thought that it would be a relief if he even managed to get them to mate.

Then, the next day...... Rune left early in the morning to go on a date.

Meanwhile, the three of them followed him secretly.

***

Rune went to meet Queen Baphomet.

When Queen Baphomet met him, she couldn’t help but bow her head shyly. Then, Rune handed her a rose that he had picked up from the side of the road.

“Meeeeeeeeeh― (I brought this because I thought of you.)”

“Meeeeh? (Oh my god?)”

Not long after, Rune said something that Kongie had emphasized to him. He definitely told him to say these words.

“Meeeeeeeeeh― (However, this beautiful flower looks nothing more than grass when placed in front of you. You...... are so beautiful.)”

And Minhyuk thought......

‘Uuuuuugh! So cheesy!!! My goosebumps are rising just by thinking about it! I don’t think women will like this!’

But something unexpected happened.

“Meeeeeeeeh? (Really?)”

“Meeeeeeeeeh― (Of course. Hoho.)”

Completely contrary to what Minhyuk had expected, it seemed like the response was good.

Then, the two of them moved together.

Queen Baphomet had been very thirsty since she woke up. Because of the long drought, she couldn't even drink water.

They went to the place that Minhyuk filled with water temporarily with Roves’ Ring yesterday. Then, the two of them drank some water gently. While they were lapping the water with their fleeting tongues, the two of them made eye contact. Rune swept his bangs up again. He looked at her with his deep and mellow eyes before speaking.

“Meeeeeeeeeh― (To your beautiful eyes, cheers!)”

When Minhyuk heard the line......

‘W, we’re done for......! That’s a poor line from a third rate drama......!’

Instead of mating, Minhyuk thought that everything would finally go down the drain. But he was shocked once again.

“Meeeeeeeeeh― (You... You’re so cool.)”

Then, he heard a notification.

[Queen Baphomet’s satisfaction increased dramatically.]

[She’s imagining her mating with Rune.]

“Oink.....!”

Kongie smiled proudly.

TL’s corner!

I never imagined that a day would come when I would translate a dating scenario between two baphomets. Ahhh. I can feel my goosebumps rising. I think there will be more of this next chapter...... maybe this is why I’m single too. HAHAHAHAHAHA SMH.

PR’s corner!

...And suddenly Athenae is a dating sim. Of course it is. And of course Kongie is a Casanova.
