I Became a Stalker in a Yandere Dating Sim

94 – 94. Father, No, Dad

In the bustling guild council, Jane, standing at the center, had her face buried in Roxer’s embrace.

‘I messed up…!’

Even though she had resolved herself, facing reality, being held in Roxer’s arms made her lose her composure.

The attendants who had been watching her from afar, responsible for arranging her attire, clenched their fists in victory.

‘Our young lady looks amazing!!!’

‘Our young lady must be happy!!’

‘Kkuh- Jane is indeed bold!’

‘That’s the spirit!!’

Among them, there were some odd reactions, but overall, it felt good.

Those who had been with Jane since her childhood, assisting with her attire, felt a sudden surge of emotion.

Perhaps due to her upbringing in a strict family since childhood, she had always been required to act like a boy in both attire and behavior.

Today, unexpectedly, she brought in a different outfit and asked for help.

The girl who always dressed as her parents and elders instructed, finally, as a grown woman, had a moment where she chose beauty for herself.

“Is our young lady really crazy!?”

“This is totally amazing…!”

The female staff in the dressing room who had watched her grow up were so delighted that they couldn’t contain their excitement.

Sam, who could testify to how strictly Jane had been raised, was proof of how her upbringing by the Jegang family was like a genetic explosion of blood pressure.

“I, I, you…!!”

Jegang, grabbing the back of his neck, barely managed to regain his composure.

Is this why a mental attack is the most terrifying thing?

Among those advancing not only to the 10th awakening but also to the stage of infinite awakening, the person considered the strongest was at a loss.

“My lord…!”

“Are you alright?”

Perhaps feeling dizzy, his aides supported him, helping him regain his composure.

“At once…! Immediately drag that lunatic out of the council!!!”

Jegang, so shocked that he couldn’t even maintain his composure, shouted furiously towards Rockser.

The aides tried to pull Rockser away upon hearing this, but they were stopped by the people brought by Jejun.

“Enough, sir.”

Blocking Jegang’s path with his most trusted aide, Jejun.

“They told me to think of him as a lunatic, and indeed he was… even more cunning than I thought.”

Rockser might not understand, but his actions completely overturned the family to which Jejun belonged.

That’s why Jejun, in support of Rockser, stood in front of the temporary lord.

“You! Can’t you move aside at once!!”

“I’m afraid I can’t do that.”

“You…! Do you need to be banished by the lord’s authority to come to your senses?! Quickly drive him out and make that damn heir kneel before me!!”

Everyone was so tense, but Jejun saw this as an opportunity.

“Sir, wasn’t our family known for strength?”

“Is someone who knows that well daring to block my way?! Move! I’ll take care of him myself and tear Rockser apart to ease my mind!!”

As Jegang tried to release his power, Jejun clicked his tongue.

“It seems you still haven’t noticed. It seems it’s really time for you to retire. Including the elders.”

“What!?”

Calming the furious Jegang, Jejun pointed behind him at Jane.

“That girl, no. According to the family’s rules, Jane, who should ascend as the true lord, is stronger than you and the elders.”

“Are you mocking me now?!”

“Would I do that? If necessary, you can confirm through the upcoming lord appointment ceremony, can’t you?”

Jejun smirked confidently.

The appointment ceremony for the next lord of the Changgeum family involves a contest of strength between the current lord and the successor.

The ceremony is based on the successor acknowledging their own shortcomings and vowing to follow the path set by the lord after comparing the agreed-upon strength. However, the actual difference in strength or whether the successor’s power is truly weaker cannot be known.

Of course, since the current lord has lived longer physically, his strength is naturally greater, and it’s about avoiding unnecessary displays of power to everyone.

‘He’s good at saying he’s stronger than me even though he hasn’t even manifested his body with the holy flame yet.’

Jegang, who couldn’t imagine being surpassed by Jane, sneered.

“Hah! Is a girl afraid of becoming the lord, so she surpasses me wearing such a vulgar headpiece?!”

Finally, unable to contain his anger, Jegang tried to rampage.

“Can’t catch your daughter to eat, so you’re frustrated.”

Rokser approached, embracing Jane’s waist.

“It’s not about being afraid of becoming the head of the family, but the fact that a child who has grown beyond the family’s pressure and chosen their own path has surpassed you, who couldn’t escape the past.”

Then, while praising Jane, he gazed at him indifferently.

People were expected to be shocked by his crazy act, but luckily it seemed only Jane’s father was shocked.

Rokser, initially tense and now relaxed, had a blank expression.

“You…! How dare you corrupt a child who can retrieve the lost relic of the family!!”

As if indifferent to Rokser’s expression, Jegang, feeling annoyed, was ready to pounce.

“Corrupt? On the contrary, that kid approached me first.”

“What!?”

“Yes, I was the one who was approached first.”

When Rokser threw out the harsh truth like a stone, Jegang, feeling like a frog hit by a stone, was about to burst with anger.

“hahahahaha!!! What nonsense you speak!!!”

“What can I do if it’s the truth.”

“Jane!!! Is what that kid said true!!!”

As Jegang scolded Jane, who usually obeyed him without question, like a sturdy and upright boy…

“Yes, it is.”

Like a woman possessed, she hugged Rokser tightly, smiling as if lost in thought.

Jegang, on the verge of losing his mind, barely held himself together and shouted.

“Fine, then. Show clearly whether your absurd words are true or false.”

Anticipating this, Jejun’s subordinates safely moved people back and deployed a transparent shield to prevent interference.

The young leaders of the Blade Guild, or more precisely, the young ones aligned with Jejun, ensured there was no interference.

The stage was set.

Jane had anticipated what would happen if he lived as Rokser had taught him, but he hadn’t expected things to escalate this much.

However, he remained unfazed.

‘Ah… My other cousins…’

She recalled the time her cousins, who had always stood against the family’s outdated ways, had once gathered to express concern about the family falling behind in the changing world.

Realizing she was at the heart of that change, Jane looked up at Rokser.

“Go, show your father how strong you’ve become.”

Seeing hesitation in Jane’s eyes, Rokser patted his back, like a bird afraid to fly when first released from its cage.

As if signaling that he could always return, Rokser gazed at Jane.

‘…Perhaps the reason I’m drawn to Rokser is…’

It seemed she was captivated not by his combat style, swordsmanship, actions, or way of speaking, but by the freedom she lacked.

Understanding the emotions that stirred within her whenever she was close to him, Jane smiled.

“I’ll be back!”

Jane approached her father, who had grown in stature, confidently stepping into the oppressive flow.

Many people pushed her back and sent their hopes.

Rockser wondered if it would end warmly after all.

“Wait, if you think about it, isn’t this like a coup or a farce that I instigated…? If someone speaks well of going to another country, it’s called a revolution, but if you speak badly, it’s like turning the house upside down!?”

She broke into a cold sweat as she reflected on what she had done.

On one hand, there was some comfort in the fact that those who had been too oppressed now had a chance to move forward on their own.

“Well, even I would have done the same.”

Rockser nodded as he looked at Jane facing her father.

Meanwhile, the temporary patriarch Jegang seemed to be grinding his teeth in frustration.

“You…! How dare you, after all I’ve done to raise you!!!”

“……..”

“According to the elders who say you will reclaim the glory of the family, I raised you to be the strongest warrior…!!”

Jegang unleashed the maximum manifestation of the flame, igniting white flames all over his body.

But Jane remained unfazed.

“Father, it seems like we are falling behind.”

“Shut up!! You have the potential to be strong, do you know whose daughter you are!!!”

In the end, Jegang rushed forward first, swinging his power to crush Jane with his strength.

“No matter how temporary a patriarch, I never expected this level of power…!”

“What!? Is he stronger than the previous patriarch??”

“Did Jegun plan this in advance to outdo us!? Is that it?”

“…Oh my goodness!”

Jegang’s power, greater than imagination, was enough to make the young officers of the family, who unfolded shields just by releasing it, shiver to their bones and feel like their whole bodies were burning.

Hastily, they also manifested flames through the ignition, but it seemed like candles being extinguished in a massive wildfire.

However, Jane felt rather at ease.

“Father, no, dad.”

After realizing and mastering everything consumed by Misteltain’s origin, she condensed and released a light in her hand.

“…!? That power!!!”

As Jane reached out her hand, Jegang stopped in mid-air before even getting close to her.

Jegang, with a body made of white flames, asked where that power came from.

In response, Jane turned to Rockser and said, “…None of this is from what I learned in the family. I learned everything from him, dad. There are many strong people outside than we think.”

As Jane finished speaking, she evaporated Jegang’s flame with a massive flash.
