Not All Heroes From Earth Are Bad-Chapter 9
Corps Commander Hemis. And her massive pet dog, Bobo?.
From now on, Choi Hyun-seok has to take care of Bobo.
Suddenly becoming a caretaker, Choi Hyun-seok was sighing while looking at something.
[Hero Quest!
You’ve become Bobo’s caretaker!
Why does a hero like me have to do this…
It may be too depressing, but endure it!
Even rolling in dog poop is better than dying, they say!
For now, let’s gain Bobo’s favor to survive and plan for the future!
For better or worse, a hero quest had appeared.
The objective was to gain Bobo’s favor.
Unlike with Reidrun, the notable difference was the increased reward of 200 points.
‘Not just a Demon King’s Army executive, now I have to gain the favor of a Corps Commander’s pet dog…’
He couldn’t help but doubt if this was really a hero quest he was looking at.
‘No choice. I’ll follow it for now.’
Anyway, the only way for Choi Hyun-seok to survive now was to gain Bobo’s favor.
Choi Hyun-seok observed Bobo carefully.
‘He’s kind of cute when sleeping.’
Bobo was sleeping while drooling.
“Grrrr… Puhung…!”
Perhaps due to his large size, drool and snot sprayed everywhere each time he breathed out.
“Am I going to raise this big guy alone from now on?”
Just as Choi Hyun-seok muttered this.
“Greetings! Worthless human.”
A phlegmy voice came from behind.
Turning around, he saw a short goblin.
“I am Hoken, who serves Lord Bobo!”
Choi Hyun-seok quickly stood up and bowed 90 degrees.
“Nice to meet you! I’m Choi Hyun-seok!”
He thought he was alone, but apparently there was a senior staff.
However, Choi Hyun-seok didn’t like this senior at all.
‘Why did it have to be a goblin?’
Goblin Hoken didn’t look reliable at all.
‘I would have preferred a large and fierce demon instead.’
The goblin before him seemed more likely to be a hindrance than help.
‘Wait a minute, come to think of it…’
Suddenly, Choi Hyun-seok remembered what Corps Commander Hemis had said.
“Our cutie Bobo seems to like tender goblin meat since he’s still young! Ohoho!”
Choi Hyun-seok now understood why a goblin was the caretaker.
At this point, he was clearly being treated as a snack.
‘If that’s the case, don’t call us caretakers, just call us lunch boxes…’
Choi Hyun-seok let out a deep sigh.
“Um, Lord Hoken.”
“What is it, human.”
“Are there no other senior caretakers?”

“No. They’re all dead.”
“Ah… I see.”
It wasn’t particularly surprising since he had expected it.
“Human! Listen well!”
Suddenly, Hoken shouted while placing his hands on his waist.
It was a pose commonly used by military instructors when trying to set the mood.
“I will now tell you what we must do as Lord Bobo’s servants!”
“Yes!”
Choi Hyun-seok was secretly impressed.
Was this what being a senior meant?
His confident demeanor showed hints of being a veteran.
“Our job is to prepare Lord Bobo’s meals!”
“Yes!”
Choi Hyun-seok swallowed hard while waiting for the next words.
“…”
“…”
But no matter how long he waited, there was nothing more.
“Is that all?”
“That’s all.”
“Umm…”
“Got a problem?”
“No sir!”
The urge to ask why he put on such airs rose to his throat.
‘Hold it in…’
Fortunately, the disaster of speaking his thoughts out loud was avoided.
After all, Choi Hyun-seok was a professional Korean who had survived in a society where rank was everything.
“Lord Hoken. Do we really just need to prepare meals?”
“That’s right. Meals! Most important.”
Hoken nervously glanced at Bobo.
“If we don’t prepare meals, Lord Bobo will eat us.”
“Ah…”
Choi Hyun-seok nodded.
It seemed they needed to work hard preparing meals to avoid becoming lunch boxes themselves.
“Keek! It’s already this time. This is bad!”
Suddenly Hoken shouted in a fuss.
“We need to prepare snacks. Human! Quickly move to the kitchen.”
Just as Hoken urgently grabbed Choi Hyun-seok’s arm.
“Kwaaang!”
Bobo woke up.
Hoken hurriedly stood before Bobo.
“Great and adorable Lord Bobo. Did you have a pleasant rest?”
Suddenly Hoken’s vocabulary became rich.
“Kwang!”
“I’ve prepared a meal here.”
Hocken held out a food bowl bigger than his own body.
Inside were various unidentifiable meat scraps piled high.
“Grrrr…”
Bobo’s expression wasn’t good as he looked at the bowl.
Something seemed unsatisfactory.
“Are you not pleased…?”
“RAAAWR!”
Bobo strode over to Hoken.
Drool dripping from his mouth, he was clearly looking at Hoken as food.
“Ah, no…!”
Hoken trembled and looked around.
His eyes met Choi Hyun-seok’s blank stare.
“I’ve prepared a human special, Lord Bobo!”
Hoken pushed Choi Hyun-seok forward.
“You crazy goblin! What are you doing!?”
“Shut up human! Lord Bobo wants his special meal!”
“Stop spouting nonsense!”
Choi Hyun-seok put Hoken in a headlock.
Though he showed respect as a senior, Choi Hyun-seok was a former world heavyweight champion fighter.
Subduing a goblin small enough to crush under his chin was nothing.
“Heeyah!”
Choi Hyun-seok threw Hoken with all his might.
“Gaaah! Save this goblin!”
Hoken screamed as he flew through the air…
“RAAAWR!”
Bobo leaped up with a mighty roar.
CHOMP!
The tender, delicious goblin Hoken went straight into Bobo’s mouth.
CRUNCH! CRACKLE!
“Nom! Nom!”
The sound of crushing bones and chewing flesh could be heard.
“BURP!”
Satisfied with his meal, Bobo belched with a smile.
“He ate well…”
Senior soldier Hoken, who taught the importance of meal preparation with his whole body.
Choi Hyun-seok quietly honored his death.
***
Despite the description showing zero effort, Choi Hyun-seok couldn’t help but smile.
“This could work…!”
Choi Hyun-seok’s first plan for survival.
The operation dubbed ‘Playing with Bobo’ was about to begin.
