For her next mission, Krysta needed a guide to show her the way through the Ever-Changing Northern Labyrinth - a minotaur partner naturally was the best option due to their supernatural sense of direction in such places.
When she asked around, Minus was the only minotaur adventurer registered in the guild: most of minotaurs kept amongst themselves, living solitary lives or in isolated communities, but Minus was an exception.
"I want to become the strongest adventurer to honor the efforts of my master, Hagata, the Giant Slayer!" he frequently said during their travel. That minotaur was obsessed by that so called 'famous adventurer' Hagata, making Krysta wonder why exactly he was so infatuated in impressing that woman.
Gradually however, she noticed a change in Minus' behavior as they closed in to the labyrinth. He was more fidgety and wary when around her, looking flustered when they made any physical contact, even though when necessary to progress the travel. Once they reached the labyrinth, they started their job to cross it.
They stayed quite while Krysta still was thinking about all the strange behavior of her temporary partner until they reached a corner with another unusual surprise: another minotaur.
But not any minotaur: it was Asterios!
"What are you doing here, my old friend?" Krysta tried to act naturally, maybe showing off a bit to her clueless companion. "This is Minus. He's currently guiding me through the labyrinth!"
"Grumpf. It was about time for you to find a guide" Asterios looked at them with his usual grumpy face. "Hm. Another minotaur, taking a mission in this time of the year, on top of that?".
"Y-yes, I'm a bit short on cash. Ha ha!" Minus tried to ease things off, but his voice gave it away something was wrong.
Actually, Krysta noticed something weird even about Asterios: he was giving fleeting glances at her, as if trying to ignore her but failing miserably.
"Alright you two! That's enough!" Krysta yelled. Better to deal with it at once. "You two are acting all weird! What do you mean by 'this time of the year'? You guys are hiding something from me?!"
Both minotaurs looked at each other as waiting for the cue who was going to break the news. It was Minus at the end of the day.
"This is a full moon week, and as all demihumans..." he cleared his throat. "We enter in a 'heat' state... y-you see".
As a spark ignited inside Krysta's head, her face brightened up in understanding.
"Ah! So that's why you guys are being so weird around me!" she gave a little tap on her own breastplate, giving a reassuring smile. "Worry not, we can solve this issue! I'm Lady Krysta, the golden knight! I can take two minotaurs no problem! If I help you guys solve this 'heat' thing, then you guys will feel better, right?".
Again, they looked at each other in silence before Minus being the one excitedly shaking her hand, in tears.
"You're so understanding Krysta! I didn't know you were such a kind soul!" he cried.
"I mean, if you're so confident, I don't mind sharing you with Minus too. It's been a while since another woman wandered around the maze". Asterios said while litting a torch in the wall.
"Hehe, I will just have to say before we start that I won't go easy on you! I'm quite of a sparring partner!"
....
A few moments later. They stripped off her armor while showing their manhoods in their full glory.
"A-ahhh... I thought you guys were talking about the 'heat of the battle'"
"No backing down now". Asterios kissed her shoulder, puttin Krysta on her knees. "Time to put all that training we had your last visit in use!".
Krysta, Asterios and Minus won the patreon project of June! Here's the full scenes!
That's the first time doing a crossover between two minotaur OCs, actually. I haven't thought about the angle of using both minotaurs at once with Krysta, so this project fit like a glove: this way I can finally increase Krysta's monster bodycount while giving some screentime to Asterios who was needing it :D
As always, thank you for all the support! Minotaurs aren't the only guys being featured later this month, we have plenty of werewolf stuff about to come out of the oven in the next few days! XD
Hope you enjoy this one! :D
