“Let’s think this through.”
Panicking wouldn’t help. He’d learned one thing in his short life— that only a select few could handle crises effectively. And sadly, he wasn’t one of them. He was the type to panic, so it was better to take a step back.
“Haaa… Okay.”
Minerva was on the verge of increasing her NTR rank. The reason was the Lewd Clown Mushroom. As far as he knew, it clouded your judgment and increased sexual desire. It basically put you in heat. And it didn’t just affect humans, but animals as well. It was like a zootopia orgy waiting to happen. Foxes mating with rabbits. ‘That’s why it triggers the bestiality event…’
Anyway, to summarize,
“We’re screwed.”
[Goddess Athena: We’re screwed.]
“…..?”
[Goddess Athena: ….?]
Who was this? A new goddess was sending him oracles.
‘What the’
As he looked up at the sky in confusion, another oracle.
[Goddess Athena: Fighting!]
“…This is confusing.”
She was cheering him on. He didn’t go in the opposite direction. He went further east.
[Goddess Athena: Aren’t you going back?]
“It takes about five hours to circle this mountain. We’ve been searching for about four hours, so it’s faster to continue going east than turn back.”
[Goddess Athena: Calm and collected. And wise, too.]
+10 points. He could hear Athena’s excitement. ‘Your apostle is about to get NTR’d, and you’re excited?’
“So, we’ve decided on the direction…”
Now, he had to find Minerva. ‘If I go looking for her, it’ll be too late.’ Too late in every sense of the word.
He had to make Minerva come to him. But if that was possible, he wouldn’t be here.
“Agape, 88-key keyboard.”
He wasn’t just standing around. He transformed Agape into a keyboard he could play while walking.
[Goddess Athena: Why the instrument?]
“The Lewd Clown Mushroom clouds your judgment and amplifies your desires. Not just physical desires, but everything.”
It was simple. Minerva was a heavy metal fanatic. She usually hid it, but during special events, she’d even wear a wig and play the electric guitar. Her room also looked normal, but her true nature was hidden beneath her bed and behind her bookshelf.
“She would’ve ignored it, but… if she hears death metal while she’s in heat, she’ll probably lose her mind and come to me.”
[Goddess Athena: Quick thinking! Lady Hera, I’d like to give this child—]
[Goddess Hera: Do you want to die?]
[Goddess Athena: —my blessing. Would that be acceptable?]
[Goddess Hera: I don’t mind.]
‘Hmm, Athena was also quick on her feet.
[God Chronos: My child… my child alone…]
‘Chronos again?’
He ignored it. That wasn’t important.
“Should I keep it easy?”
She’d probably come running if she heard anything remotely death metal. And his hands were shaking too much to play anything difficult.
‘It shouldn’t be a problem if I mess up,’ but it would be better if he was accurate. If he was going to do it, he might as well do it right. He could increase the difficulty and add mods, but it was just a Hail Mary anyway, so he didn’t bother.
“Haaa…”
It should work. He started playing as he ran through the forest. The song was KOROSE (Kill). One of the theme songs from DMC (Detroit Metal City).
And the result was—
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaa! Hell Kaiser! Hell Kaiseeeeeeeer!”
“…Hiik…!”
It worked. Too well.
“…I-I’m sorry. I lost control…”
“It’s fine. Everyone makes mistakes.”
He used Agape to dispel Minerva’s [Arousal], [Lust], and [Confusion] status effects. He played a few B chords on Expert, and she seemed to snap out of it.
‘She said she had taken precautions…’
Covering her nose and mouth with a cloth? The great KF-mask would have prevented this. It was a moment of carelessness. ‘And her running towards death metal…’ Well, it saved her life and virginity. Minerva still wouldn’t look him in the eyes, but he didn’t mind.
“That’s all the missions, then. It’s getting late, but we can still catch the last bus.”
“Uuuu…”
“…I said I’m fine.”
“I’m not fine…”
“…Right.”
She was blushing and staring at the ground. All the missions were done, so it didn’t matter. He wasn’t going to pry.
“Let’s go back before we miss the last bus.”
“…Sorry.”
He didn’t respond. They parted ways. He returned home and saw Mai…
“…Sniff… sniff…”
“What are you doing?”
“Strange scent from oppa. Feels good…?”
“What?”
She liked the smell of his week-old sweat?
He was speechless. He showered.
“? Strange. Smell gone…”
“…Do you have a scent fetish or something?”
“No. Already checked. Source, oppa’s trash can.”
“…What’s in the trash can?”
“Tissues.”
“………..”
He had to flush them next time.
Meanwhile, Minerva—
“…Strange…”
She collapsed before even taking off her armor. She let out a sigh and started undressing.
“It’s hot… my body…”
She felt feverish. But she wasn’t sick. It was a pleasant feeling, and a strange tingling between her legs.
“…Ugh…”
No.
This wasn’t right.
“Huff…!”
She touched her breasts through her clothes. It was just a touch, nothing more, but—
“This… is…!”
She trembled. It felt like electricity running through her body.
‘…Why?’
She knew. She couldn’t say she didn’t know. She knew this. Merck had told her. But the person she was thinking of wasn’t…
“…Chrono-ssi…?”
It wasn’t no one. There was someone. A man. A man who she’d been with for a week.
“That’s… impossible… he has a girlfriend—Ugh…huff…♥”
No, she shouldn’t be thinking like this. But she couldn’t help herself. This strange sensation, this pleasure, it was like she was on drugs. ‘Don’t tell me…?’ It was just as she had thought.
“No… but… maybe…”
Her mind was hazy. Her breathing was ragged. Her body was burning. There was only one explanation.
“Hell… Kaiser-nim…?”
She was under the influence of the Lewd Clown Mushroom.
“Ugh…! No… this isn’t right…”
She’d covered her face, but the spores were still on her clothes, her skin. Chrono had used [Power Chord] to dispel it earlier, but she hadn’t showered yet.
“I can’t… I can’t handle these feelings…!”
It was the mushroom.
“Kaiser-nim… Kaiser-nim…!”
It was the mushroom.
“Ugh…!”
A side effect.
“…Is this… ‘love’…?”
She was simply intoxicated.
Meanwhile—
[Athena’s Apostle – NTR Rank 1]
[Zeus is feeling frustrated.]
“…Haa…”
Ther sighed. It was as expected, but it was within his calculations.
“Mars, I have a proposition.”
“Huh? What now?”
He said to Mars,
“Let’s have a competition. Whoever completes more missions wins.”
“…Heeeh?”
He’d planned on creating a diversion to buy some time, but…
[Mars: 72 points]
[Jupiter: 31 points]
“You’re pathetic.”
“…How…?”
He wasn’t strong enough to compete with Mars, who had already awakened. Numerical superiority didn’t work when the difference was this great.
