Episode 12
Hemis headed straight to his office.
Choi Hyun-seok followed with an expression on his face like a cow being dragged to a slaughterhouse.
‘Ah… I really have no luck.’
While I was feeling gloomy, I saw Bobo walking in front of me.
Seal, seal!
Walk with your hips shaking really excitedly.
It seemed like he was happy to have met his master.
‘I hope you don’t have any worries.’
How long did I walk while thinking useless thoughts?
Choi Hyun-seok soon found himself in Hemis’ office.
“Okay. Let’s hear what happened.”
Hemis said, sitting seductively on the desk.
Her pure white flesh and voluptuous body were visible through the see-through clothing she was wearing.
It was clearly an ideal body that would capture the attention of every man.
However, Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes were fixed elsewhere.
‘I don’t think I’ll get eaten.’
Red lips that filled her face.
The scene of those large lips tearing open to a length of over 2 meters and pulling out Bobo is still vivid in my mind.
‘Let’s just… be honest.’
I thought it would be better to tell the truth rather than telling unnecessary lies.
Choi Hyun-seok took a deep breath and began to explain.
“… That’s how it happened.”
It didn’t take long to tell the story.
Choi Hyun-seok conveyed the facts as plainly as possible.
Bobo ate the senior soldier.
Headed to the kitchen to survive.
In the midst of all this, an accident occurred, and he even showed his wit and took control of the soldiers.
As the story ended, Hemis’ lips were torn apart.
“Ohhohoho!”
Hemis laughs heartily, half covering her lips with her snow-white hand.
“It’s funny. It’s really funny! You thought you could survive by selling me and Bobo in a situation where you could die with your limbs torn off?” “I committed a mortal sin!”
Choi Hyun-seok bent his waist at a 90-degree angle.
“A mortal sin? I am praising you right now.”
“yes…?”
Suddenly you’re giving me compliments.
It was a sound I didn’t understand.
“I accepted him because he was a human brought by Raidrun, but honestly, I didn’t expect much. I didn’t think he would last even a day.”
In fact, just like she said, I almost couldn’t last a day.
Because I’ve had several life-threatening situations in a short period of time.
“But he’s a more interesting person than I thought.”
Hemis continued, resting his chin on his hand.
“I guess that’s very human. He has a cleverness that you can’t find in the idiots here.”
“…”
“But you seem to have quite a bit of guts for a human being.”
“thank you.”
Choi Hyun-seok quietly sighed in relief.
I don’t know why, but she seemed to like this situation.
“Do you know by any chance how the Demon King’s Army selects its commanders?” “I heard that the strongest one becomes the captain.” “That’s right. The only thing that matters here is force. That’s why it’s a problem.”
Hemis sighed softly.
“There are only idiots in the Demon King’s army. If you ignore anything other than strength, you will become more and more idiot, which is a vicious cycle. Do you understand?” “I don’t know…” “Well, you will naturally understand as time goes by.”
Suddenly, Hemis walked towards Choi Hyun-seok.
“So what I’m saying is…”
Choi Hyun-seok swallowed hard.
Seeing Hemis’ lips up close was terrifying all over again.
Hemis, who had come close to my nose, slowly opened his lips.
“Don’t you want to become an executive?”
“yes?”
“Work under me. Is that hard to understand?”
“no!”
“Then you agree?”
Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes rolled around like crazy at Hemis’ question.
‘Damn… A warrior’s life is a spectacle.’
Starting out as a slave in the Demon King’s army, he is now told to become an officer.
This is something that would only appear in the autobiography of a high-ranking demon who started from the bottom.
Choi Hyun-seok took a deep breath and opened his mouth.
“But, in the Demon King’s army, you have to be strong to become a commander, right? With my current level of skill…” “Of course, with your current level of skill, it won’t work. Here, strength is everything.”
Hemis pressed Choi Hyun-seok’s chest with his fingers.

“But in this place where strength speaks for everything, how long can you, a human, last? A week? A month? I guarantee you, even if you just use your wits, you’ll soon reach your limit.”
“…”
“You weren’t planning on continuing to sell me and Bobo out to survive, were you?”
“no!”
“Yeah. You have to have that much awareness.”
Hemis continued speaking with a snicker.
“I will protect you from now on. If I step forward, at least no one in this Third Corps will touch you.”
“…”
Even though he said he would protect her, Choi Hyun-seok’s face was still stiff.
Because she wouldn’t have made such a suggestion without any reason.
“However, this is conditional.”
As expected, Hemis set a condition.
“What should I do?” “One month. Fight the guy I choose and win within that time. For every victory, I’ll extend your protection period by one month.”
“…”
“That’s how you rise through the ranks, killing your superiors one by one. If you just make them battalion commanders, wouldn’t you be useful?”
To put it simply, it means that you have to kill the Demon King’s army designated by Hemis every month to rise in rank.
‘Easier said than done…’
Even among the common soldiers in the Demon King’s army, only those who would be called monsters on Earth are included.
Who among those guys becomes a worn-out senior officer?
It was absolutely impossible for a normal human being.
But Choi Hyun-seok had no choice but to reject this offer.
“I will do my best to live up to your expectations, Commander!” “Oh ho ho! How refreshing!” “Commander. Can I ask you one thing?”
“What? Tell me.”
“Um… what is your exact rank, Raidrun?”
Raidrun is the only Demon King Army officer who has personally witnessed Choi Hyun-seok fight.
Knowing his rank, you can probably guess what level his target, a battalion commander, is.
“You too. Do you think I would expect you to be at the level of a Raidrun? A Raidrun is a rank above a battalion commander.” “Thank you for your answer!”
Choi Hyun-seok felt a little relieved.
As expected, Raidrun wasn’t an ordinary executive.
‘Well, if that were normal, humans would have been extinct long ago.’
Raidrun is a warrior who can turn heavily armed knights into blood with one punch.
If the Demon King’s army was full of such strong people, humans would have already disappeared from this land.
“Do your best in the future. It’s not like there hasn’t been a precedent.” “Yes! Just leave it to me!” “Oh, and if you happen to lose the duel, don’t think about dying in comfort.”
“yes…?”
Hemis’ tongue licked her red lips.
“At that time… I guarantee you, you will know deep down what it feels like to want to die.”
***
Choi Hyun-seok left the office and headed straight to the kitchen.
Because I had to get Bobo’s ingredients.
“Our cutie likes you. Please take good care of him in the future!”
From now on, you will have to duel a soldier pointed out by Hemis every month.
Even though it was a deal that wasn’t a deal, he couldn’t escape his original mission of being Bobo’s breeder.
“Bobo, will you fight for me?”
“Wow!”
Bobo barked loudly in response to Choi Hyun-seok’s question.
It was as if he was telling me to trust only him.
“What a cute kid!”
Choi Hyun-seok patted Bobo’s head hard.
“Ugh…”
“Why are you sighing?”
Rachel, who was sitting on his shoulders, was sighing so hard that the ground gave out.
“It’s only a month before I have to say goodbye to you, warrior.” “Do you want to say something unlucky?”
Even though Choi Hyun-seok opened his eyes wide and looked at Rachel, she was still the same.
“That’s the situation. You’re still level 1, you know. Normally, you’d be chasing rabbits, but you’re suddenly asking me to fight the Demon King’s army one-on-one…”
Rachel shook her head.
“I guess I should just consider it over.” “Hey! When did you say I had some kind of SSS-class potential!?” “Hero. Don’t you know what potential means? It’s literally latent power. It’s a power that’s hidden inside.”
“…”
“As you level up, you gradually grow and your potential comes out. Do you think that your potential will suddenly come out if you start fighting?”
Normally, he would have hit Rachel, but he didn’t.
Because it was all true.
“ha…”
In fact, Choi Hyun-seok knew it too.
That the situation you are in is hopeless.
“An orc named Kurken. Can you defeat him?”
“Of course!”
Hemis quickly told him who his duel opponent was.
I answered in front of her that I could win, but…
To be honest, I was afraid.
“Fight with your life at stake…”
On Earth, Choi Hyun-seok has fought countless battles.
And he even won the title of the strongest man in the world.
But it was a fight with rules in the ring.
I have never fought in such a raw and life-threatening fight.
‘But we still have to win.’
Choi Hyun-seok has gathered his will.
“The blond nobleman
Marry Young-ae. Have five children. I will never die until I see my grandchildren playing in the yard of the mansion in my old age.” “Even in this situation, you’re talking about blonde hair. You’re really a great warrior. You’re the best!”
Rachel gave a thumbs up.
“Do you know the mind of a man who died as a bachelor!?” “When I see you, Hero, I don’t even want to know.” “This is a pierced mouth!”
Choi Hyun-seok grabbed Rachel and handed her to Bobo.
“Bobo! Eat!”
“Gyaaaah! Are you crazy!?” “Yeah! I’m crazy! What are you going to do!? Bobo! Hurry up and eat me!” “Kwaang!
***
“Ugh… dirty…”
Rachel wept bitterly.
Her body was soaked with Bobo’s saliva.
“Just disappear quickly. I have to go into the kitchen now.”
Choi Hyun-seok was finally able to arrive at his destination, the kitchen.
As soon as Rachel disappeared, he opened the kitchen door.
“You are human.”
The first thing that appeared was the large, massive Demon King’s Army.
‘I guess it’s a cooking disease…?’
He’s definitely a cook, holding a knife and wearing an apron.
There were some minor issues, though: the cleaver she was holding was larger than an average axe, and her apron was soaked with blood.
“My name is Choi Hyun-seok.” “I’m Chef Kulkan. You are the person the commander was talking about.”
Chef.
That is, he is the leader here.
Choi Hyun-seok was secretly surprised when Kulkan seemed to know him.
‘Has something like an official document already been sent down?’
It had not been long since I left Hemis’ office, but it seemed as if the orders had already been given.
“So. What business does a human have here?” “Meat-type ingredients. I would like to get Bobo-sama’s snack.”
“Oh, you were a zookeeper?”
“Yes, that’s right!”
It seemed as though Kulkan had already been visited by the zookeeper several times.
‘That’s good. Maybe things will work out easier.’
Choi Hyun-seok cheered inwardly.
Now, as the senior breeders said, once we get the ingredients, the situation will be over.
But things didn’t work out that easily.
“I can’t give you the ingredients.”
“yes?”
“Why should I help you?”
“…”
“The commander’s orders were only to leave you alone. He didn’t tell me to help you.”
Choi Hyun-seok sighed inwardly.
‘Damn… nothing is easily solved.’
Just preparing for the duel that was to take place in a month was enough to make my head explode, and endless headaches arose.
“Human. Do you want to get the ingredients?” “Yes! I want to get them!”
Choi Hyun-seok answered forcefully.
Food was absolutely necessary for Bobo’s future life.
Otherwise, Bobo would have eaten me before we could even duel.
But what came out of Kulkan’s mouth was completely unexpected.
“Then take it yourself.”
“yes…?”
“It’s about time to go get some groceries. Follow me.”
Choi Hyun-seok followed Coolkan into the kitchen without realizing it.
For some reason, there was a party going on there.
“Tsk, tsk! As expected, you did a good job as a cook!” “What kind of meat is this!? The flesh is so tender!?” “It’s the Patek that died yesterday.” “What the heck! Patek is the best! Hahahaha!”
Although some awkward comments were heard here and there in the conversation, Choi Hyun-seok tried hard to ignore them.
“Kulkan-nim. What is this situation?” “We sometimes have a feast like this before going out to hunt for food.”
“hmm…?”
Choi Hyun-seok tilted his head.
Because there was something strange about Kulkan’s words.
‘You’re hunting for food?’
Hunting. And a sumptuous feast before heading out hunting.
‘I feel uneasy. I feel like I’m going somewhere to die.’
They say bad feelings always come true.
I didn’t know until this point.
I never thought it would turn out exactly as I had expected.
