Chapter 282: A Strange Date Between Him and Her
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 over the years. Right now, she was sending a signal through their empathy to Ankheseramun.
‘I like him.’
“…”
‘Has she really gone crazy?’
Minhyuk could not 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 could not live at all, a place where not even a single drop of rain fell, such that many would wonder how one could survive in this place. However, she was a woman that 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.’
Ankheseramun was the daughter of the current Demon King, Alberdo. However, this was something that only a select few knew about. It seemed that 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. She thought, ‘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 her. If his words were a lie, she would not give him any rewards or agree to any of his requests. Even if it were 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, 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 Minhyuk 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.
Ankheseramun nodded when she saw the information on the ring. She thought, ‘It’s true.’?
Then, all that was left was the matter between Queen Baphomet and Rune. She said, “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, raise its value!’
“I’m sorry but this Baphomet, Rune, is a comrade that has gone through life-and-death experiences with me. Selling him at a price… is absolutely impossible. If this child dies, then I die with him! I have to follow his wishes!”
Minhyuk’s hustling skills right now were so brilliant that he could even sell the water made from Roves’ Tidal Wave for one platinum per liter. What did Rune really mean to Minhyuk? Other than being a portable refillable lamb skewer, the former was not that special of an existence to him.
“…Is that so?”
Ankheseramun 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.”
Indeed, that was the reason why Queen Baphomet 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 would not even think about staying with them at all. Even though it seemed that she had fallen 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. If you manage to achieve 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 Itinerary for Him and Her.]
Rank: SS
Requirements: 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.]
“…!”
‘Rune will 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.
“Delicious food… We do have one specialty. It’s none other than Queen Baphomet’s milk.”
‘Queen Baphomet’s milk… I wonder how delicious it is?’
“And, our territory’s famous dish is seasoned tripe and chitterlings.”
It was definitely food that he could not help but admire.
A smile would definitely come out if one dipped the seasoned tripe in bean powder. That soft bean flavor that catches the greasiness of the tripe… hmmm! What about the chitterlings? If one bit the chitterlings dipped in the sauce made with red chili paste and mayonnaise, the flavorful and hot seasonings inside would definitely burst and create a harmonious flavor! Finally, after eating both the seasoned tripe and chitterlings?
‘You have to eat fried rice! Kyaa!’
Minhyuk could not help but burst out in admiration.
“I promise to give you Queen Baphomet’s milk, the seasoned tripe and chitterlings, as well as this territory’s treasure, once you achieve 100% satisfaction.”
Those words were enough for him. Minhyuk replied solemnly, “I will do my very best!”
***
Minhyuk had to squeeze out everything that he could for Queen Baphomet and Rune’s date itinerary! This was his mission, so he had to do his best. However, Minhyuk, Aruvel, Beanie and Rune all faced enormous difficulties.
“Is there anyone here that has ever been in a relationship here…?”
“…”
“…”
“…”
No one answered the question.
“I heard Aruvel has lived for 1,000 years. Have you ever had a relationship?”
Compared to other demons, Aruvel lived a particularly long life.
“I didn’t, because it’s too troublesome.”
When Minhyuk heard those words, he knew that that was just his excuse. Aruvel had been single since birth! Minhyuk could only sigh ruefully in the end. It was truly difficult to plan a date itinerary since the four of them had no dating experience.
Then, Minhyuk suggested something. He said, “Then, I’ll work on a date itinerary first. All of you should look at it later.”
All of them nodded in agreement. 40 minutes later, Minhyuk finished writing his date itinerary plan and handed it over to everyone.
[Minhyuk’s Date Itinerary Proposal!]
Meet up at 7 am to eat.
After the meal, enjoy some drinks and cake as dessert.
Lunch will come after the cake. The lunch must consists some kind of meat.
After lunch, just like some street food, eat grass that’s grown on the ground.
Then, eat some cake and have some drinks.
Eat.
Eat happily ever after.
Enjoy your meal.
Eat deliciously.
“…”
“…”
“…”
All of them were left speechless, while Minhyuk could not understand their silence.
“Why? Isn’t this a really happy date?”
“Oiiink…”
“This is not it. Hoo…”
Minhyuk’s head was only filled with thoughts about eating. Then, Minhyuk said, “Why are you dating in the first place? Isn’t it to share food?!”
“I’d rather be the one to do it. Give it here,” Aruvel said as he quickly began to map out a dating itinerary. Sage Aruvel’s dating itinerary! It was something to look forward to.
[Aruvel’s Date Itinerary!]
Start the morning with some reading.
Read and discuss books about the philosophy of the demon race.
Read a useful book titled ‘What is a race?’ together.
Discuss this topic together.?
Go to the garden, lie down together and watch ‘The Demon God’s Autobiography’.
Discuss.
Have a pleasant discussion.
Read some books.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Everyone else was also left speechless. Minhyuk was sure that Aruvel was someone that 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 that stepped up. Since Rune could not write anything down, he asked Beanie for help and conveyed his thoughts to him. And since Minhyuk could understand Beanie’s words, he spoke up what he heard from Beanie.
“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. However, it seemed like he was a ‘Pervert Rune’ through and through.
In the end, Beanie smiled confidently after watching everything happen. Then, everyone checked what Beanie 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 Beanie’s dating itinerary. Then, the thought that popped in Minhyuk’s head was…
‘We’re doomed…’
Beanie’s proposal was chosen because it was the most normal out of all their proposals. However, in fact, Beanie’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 could not 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 Beanie 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.)”
Minhyuk balked, ‘Uuuuuugh! So cheesy!!! My goosebumps are rising just by thinking about it! I don’t think women will like this!’
Then, 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 could not 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 bleating, “Meeeeeeeeeh―?(To your beautiful eyes, cheers!)”
When Minhyuk heard the line, he thought, ‘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. Alas, 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…!” Beanie cried out and smiled proudly.
