Not All Heroes From Earth Are Bad - Chapter 8
‘What doesn’t kill you will make you stronger.’
Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes shone brightly.
‘I’ll survive.’
On the way to the 3rd Legion headquarters of the demon army.
In the past few days, Choi Hyun-seok has desperately pulled himself together.
‘I’ve succeeded in winning the favor of Reidrun. Is there any other demon that I should be afraid of? I’m going to win over everybody, whether it’s Reidrun or the demon captain.’
It’s okay to act servile.
He would even rub the demon’s hands and feet if his life depended on it.
All he has to do is survive somehow.
Then there will be an opportunity someday.
‘Huhu…I won’t give up…’
Somehow, he’ll have a lot of children like rabbits after a romantic relationship with a blonde beauty and spend time watching his grandchildren run around in a magnificent mansion in his old age!
His head was full of such thoughts.
It was when Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes glistened with bizarre madness.
“Hero. Straighten your head. You’ll need to kill the Demon King first!”
Rachel, who was sitting on Choi Hyun-seok’s shoulder, whispered.
Then Choi Hyun-seok looked at Rachel with a serious face.
“Why can’t I live happily ever after?”
“What…?”
“Why can’t I live happily ever after?”
“…”
“Why can’t I live happily ever after? What a fucking world! Why are you fucking with me!?”
“Hey, hero…The demon will hear you. Lower your voice a little…”
“Why can’t I vent!?”
Choi Hyun-seok foamed at the mouth and shouted as if he was gasping for air.
‘Completely insane…’
Communication was impossible.
She felt like she was seeing a crazy demon.
Rachel nodded with a forced smile.
“Yes… haha…! That’s right…”
Then suddenly Rachel disappeared.
At the same time, a head popped into the carriage.
“Choi Hyun-seok. What’s going on?”
It was the bullhead Reidrun.
Choi Hyun-seok smiled brightly with an honest look.
“I’m so happy to see you, commander, that I can’t control myself. Haha! I’m sorry if it was noisy.”
“
“It’s certainly an honor to have me as your commander.”
“Of course!”
“Now the headquarters of the legion is not far away. Don’t be too anxious, we’ll see the captain soon.”
“Yes! All right!”
“So take a rest.”
After the exchange Reidrun returned to the lead carriage.
Choi Hyun-seok breathed a sigh of relief.
“Hu…in this life too I almost ended as an old bachelor.”
Choi Hyun-seok shook his head.
Losing his life twice without having ever dated would be unbelievable.
It was a terrible thing to imagine.
“Hero. Look over there!”
Rachel, who reappeared, pointed somewhere.
“What is it?”
Choi Hyun-seok looked at where her little finger was pointed.
“A castle…?”
Since when was it?
There was a huge black castle.
‘I think it’s ten times bigger than Hemor Fortress…’
Maybe it’s bigger than that.
It was such a big castle that the sense of distance became strange.
Even at the moment Choi Hyun-seok looked at it, the huge black castle grew bigger and bigger.
Gradually closer to the castle, finally someone shouted out loud.
“This is the headquarters of the 3rd Legion!”
They’ve arrived at the headquarters of the 3rd Legion of the demon army.
* * *
This world was on a much larger scale than he had thought.
The 3rd Legion headquarters looked like a city surrounded by huge walls.
A magnificent castle rising in the middle.
Inside, Choi Hyun-seok stood in front of a large door made of antique black wood.
“Choi Hyun-seok. The captain is inside.”
“Yes.”
“Be careful not to be rude. If you don’t want to waste your life.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
What does he take him for?
That will never happen.
Choi Hyun-seok was prepared to lick his toes if the captain wanted him to.
Of course, he doubt the captain of the demon army would ask such a thing.
Knock, knock.
Reidrun knocked on the door.
“Come on in.”
The voice from the inside was surprisingly beautiful.
To say it metaphorically, it was a really sweet voice like the rolling of a jade ball.
Squeak…
The antique black door opens.
Finally, he could see the owner of the voice.
Thump…!
Choi Hyun-seok felt his heart beating hard.
‘Pretty…’
The woman in front of him stood with her back turned.
It was definitely the back of her, but even that couldn’t hide her beauty.
Black hair that came down to her waist.
Below it was a curvy, sensual figure moving as if to seduce himself.
‘Maybe it’s okay that it’s not a blonde beauty…’
What the hell was he saying!?
Rachel’s tackle should have come, but it was quiet.
She seemed to be saving herself because they were in front of the captain of the 3rd legion.
“Captain Hemi.”
Reidrun addressed the captain of the legion.
Then the beautiful woman turned around.
“
‘Let’s stay calm. No matter how pretty she is, she’s the captain of the demon army. I have to be ready to bootlick at any time…’
Choi Hyun-seok, who was thinking about it, became surprised and widened his eyes.
Captain Hemi, who turned around.
Because her whole face was a huge mouth.
“…”
A huge mouth torn vertically.
There were sharp teeth wriggling in it.
“Reidrun. What brought you here?”
Beautiful…No, it was a huge mouth monster.
“It’s an honor to meet you, captain.”
Reidrun took the lead and bowed his head.
“Oh my! What are you doing among fellow demons? Hahahah.”
The mouth monster smiled, covering her mouth with her hands.
Even so, she couldn’t cover half of her huge lips.
“Reidrun, you’ve gotten more muscular since the last time I saw you.”
“You’ve become more beautiful.”
Reidrun spoke in an unbecoming, cheesy tone.
‘Fuck…’
Choi Hyun-seok watched the situation while holding back his vomit.
“Is this about the fall of Hemor Fortress?”
“I’m sorry. I’m deeply ashamed of myself.”
“No. It wasn’t Reidrun’s fault. It was the stupid 8th Division commander’s mistake.”
At that moment, a fierce spirit erupted from the mouth monster Hemi.
It’s like a huge tidal wave that squeezes one’s whole body.
‘Agh, I can’t breathe…’
Choi Hyun-seok gasped hard and barely held onto his consciousness.
“8th Division’s commander. That crocodile’s head came back alive without shame?”
“…”
“So I’m going to make him into a leather bag. These days, it’s popular to use alligator skin. Hoho.”
He was unable to tell whether Hemi laughter was serious or not.
At the same time, the stifling energy disappeared.
Choi Hyun-seok sulked in a cold sweat.
‘If she lifts even a finger, I’ll die.’
Reidrun is a monster that’s out of reach.
That army captain named Hemi felt like a monster on a completely different level.
‘Even just from looking at this monster I almost fainted.’
But that wasn’t the truly shocking thing.
“Reidrun, by any chance did you hear the report?”
“The report…?”
“The Demon King’s pet dog gave birth to a baby.”
“Yes. I’ve heard rumors. It’s something to celebrate.”
“So there was a little squabble between the captain over who gets to have it.”
At the moment, Hemi’s huge lips ripped open.
It was probably a smile.
“I won! You don’t know how cute it is. Do you want to take a look?”
Reidrun nodded.
And the scene that followed was beyond his imagination.
Shuwak-!
“
The lips on Hemi’s head became about 2 meters big, and a black dog as big as a tiger popped out of it.
“Look! Isn’t it so cute?”
“It’s definitely a pet that the Demon King would cherish. Even though it’s a baby, I can feel its elegance.”
“I named it Bobo!”
“Bobo… that’s a mighty name.”
“Right. As expected, Reidrun and I are on the same page!”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Choi Hyun-seok felt like he was going crazy.
‘That’s not the point right now!’
How come they are so easygoing?
‘A little tiger-sized bastard just popped out of a mouth! Oh, but it’s not a person. Anyway, her lips are stretched out. How could such a monster fit in such a smaller body? And that’s a baby? An elephant is smaller than that!’
There are so many parts wrong that he didn’t know what to say.
‘Sigh, I don’t know…’
Finally, Choi Hyun-seok decided to quietly shut up.
At this time, Hemi’ eyes turned to Choi Hyun-seok.
Choi Hyun-seok can’t see Hemi’s eyes, so should he say that her lips are looking towards him?
“By the way, Reidrun. What’s with him?”
“This is Choi Hyun-seok, who I reported last time.”
“Oh, the smart human?”
Reidrun had already shown off Choi Hyun-seok to the captain of the demon army beforehand.
“Yes. I brought him here to officially admit him into the demon army.”
“Oho…Reidrun’s chosen talent. I’m looking forward to it.”
Hemi approached Choi Hyun-seok.
“I like your cute face and cute muscles.”
Cute face.
Cute muscles.
Such words were far from what one would describe Choi Hyun-seok as.
“And you too, captain, you have beautiful lips.”
“Oh my!? Really?”
Hemi pressed her face closer.
Choi Hyun-seok smiled forcefully with a cold sweat.
‘H-help…’
The huge lips are likely to devour him right away.
“Thanks for saying that!”
Fortunately, Hemi backed away, and Choi Hyun-seok breathed a sigh of relief.
“But Reidrun. No matter how much you like this person, it’s going to be a little hard.”
“Is it that difficult to join the ranks of demons?”
“No. It’s not difficult to join us demons. This is not the first time.”
“Then…”
Reidrun stroked his chin as if he could guess something.
“Yes. Will this man be able to survive just because he joins us demons?”
Hemi’s question was a legitimate one.
The original slave division, where Choi Hyun-seok was located, was also a part of the demon army, but it was not a direct combat division.
All slaves are property of the demons.
“The demons will tear him apart.”
Because of Reidrun’s threat at the fortress, the other demons didn’t dare touch the slaves.
But it was different here.
A human amongst the demons.
Can Choi Hyun-seok survive in a group that eats humans as snacks when they’re bored?
“
“Can you assure me, let alone a week, can he last a day?’
“Yes. I believe in Choi Hyun-seok.”
“Really…?
Hemi looked at Reidrun in surprise.
He was known as the Red Nightmare, but he believes in a human.
It was hard to accept.
“Choi Hyun-seok has excellent command skills. Although his strength is insignificant now, he will soon have great power.”
“Why do you think so?”
“I’m going to train him myself.”
Choi Hyun-seok was surprised by Reidrun’s words.
‘The bullhead is going to train him myself?’
The same was true of Hemi, who became surprised.
That Red Nightmare Reidrun will teach a human.
It was doubtful whether he was the same demon she knew.
“Reidrun, you’re coming forward yourself. Do you like him that much?”
“Choi Hyun-seok is a human being, but I know he’s more suited to the demon army than anyone else.”
“Is that so…”
At this moment, Hemi’ lips tore apart.
‘This, she’s angry?’
Choi Hyun-seok felt it instinctively.
For some reason, the situation right now is going badly.
“I trust Reidrun, if you say so with such conviction.”
“Thank you.”
“However, no direct training.”
“What?”
“Our Reidrun should not be deprived of his time by a mere human. I have work for you.”
“…”
Hemi approached Choi Hyun-seok.
Then she slowly touches Choi Hyun-seok’s chest.
“Instead, I’ll take care of you personally.”
“…”
“Especially since it’s a human who Reidrun has taken a special interest in!! I’ll have to pay close attention.”
Each time Hemi touched his skin, he got goosebumps all over.
‘Don’t let it bother you!’
The bullhead Reidrun and now the mouth monster Hemi. It made him want to throw away everything.
Ah, but of course it’s just a feeling.
Choi Hyun-seok is a man who understands how to survive.
“It’s an honor for the lord captain to pay particular attention! Haha!”
Choi Hyun-seok shouted like a person who was so happy that he didn’t know what to do.
“Yes, yes. You will be assigned as my pet keeper from now on.”
“What?”
A pet keeper.
It was clear that the pet she was referring to was Bobo, who was panting next to Hemi.
It’s a mammoth dog that could even swallow a tiger as a snack.
‘She wants me to raise that?’
The only animals Choi Hyun-seok has ever raised are two pet hamsters he received as gifts in elementary school.
‘Rather than a pet keeper, I’m afraid I’m going to be a snack…’
Hemi would laugh and move on even if he was eaten.
She would say something along the lines of, ‘Oh my? My darling had such an appetite? You take after me! Ohoho!’
Indeed, it was obvious.
“What’s with that look? You don’t like it?”
At that moment, Hemi’ big lips were subtly distorted.
Choi Hyun-seok, who realized his mistake, quickly smiled.
“That can’t be! I was just worried that a human like me isn’t qualified to care of the elegant and dashing Bobo!”
“Oh my, such wonderful words! Yes. My darling is elegant and dashing.”
As if Hemi was satisfied, her lips tore open.
“By the way, maybe because Bobo is still growing, but he likes to eat a lot. That’s why you’ll have to procure a lot of food so he doesn’t run out of snacks.”
“I’ll keep that in mind!”
“You should. Otherwise, you’ll become his snack.”
“…”
“
“I’ve had to assign a new pet keeper often because he keeps eating the last one. I don’t know who he takes after that he eats so well. Hohoho!”
“Maybe he take after the beautiful and wonderful captain!”
“Really? Hohoho!”
“Of course! Hahaha!”
A drop of tear flowed from Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes as he shared a laugh with Hemi.
