I Became a Stalker in a Yandere Dating Sim

6. You will understand if you keep watching

An area that was forward-looking but serious and neat.

The stepped lecture hall where windows were lined up like the gills of a fish, allowing fresh air and sunlight to pour in.

In the fifth class symbolized by the zodiac sign, Dragon, among the twelve.

The disciples, dressed in white uniforms with golden armament on their shoulders, maintained a standing posture in their positions.

“All students, greet the professor.”

The class president Rika with her fluttering black hair bowed her head in unison.

After Rika greeted the professor in charge of the morning assembly, she sat down.

“Okay, you all know that today is the day when one of the mid-term assessments, the ‘Jewel Golem’ raid assessment, is over in the first semester of the academy, right?”

A young female professor, who was in charge of the first-year class of the Awakeners Academy​, shrugged her shoulders.

The students all responded strongly as if they knew.

“Well, the score that goes into the assessment is not only the total damage, but also the various collaborative and supportive activities. So don’t be too disappointed if your total damage is low.”

The female professor smiled thinly, as if to loosen up the tense students.

“Professor! Then what about the guy who didn’t do anything and didn’t even attend?”

As if to pinpoint someone, a cute female student with a puppy face opened her mouth.

She was so kind-hearted like a puppy that she was a tad worried about the guy who had been stalking her.

‘I, this is just! I want to know how the academy deals with such cases, so I am asking…!’

…Although she claimed it wasn’t about her, anyway, she was worried about Roxer but swallowed her feelings as much as possible, trying to seem indifferent.

Thanks to her, her voice sounded rather sharp, as if she was pointing out the behavior of the guy who had been pretending to be her boyfriend.

“That’s right! The guy who always chased girls and was a nuisance!?”

“He hasn’t shown up for a few days, isn’t it expulsion if he doesn’t show up today??”

“Isn’t Roxer that punk on probation?? He didn’t have any damage during the mid-term ‘Jewel Golem’ raid assessment!!”

Thanks to her, the students urged for action against the nuisance stalker, Roxer.

As if it wasn’t enough that he had been stalking girls as if he was their boyfriend blatantly.

He caused harm to fellow students by dawdling around, trying to show himself off to the girls he stalked during partner or group activities. It had happened more than once or twice.

Thanks to that chance meeting which could lead to his expulsion or probation.

“Professor! According to school rules, the guy who didn’t participate in the assessment should be on probation or expelled, right??”

“That guy gave our class leader a hard time too!”

“Because of him, our class image is not good to the other classes.”

The students demanded answers from the professor in charge.

‘I’m unsure about expulsion…anyways..’

Faced with this, the female student Erin with a puppy face, who seemed like she had done something wrong, barely managed to hide her gloomy expression.

“Okay, everyone calm down. That’s something the professors will take care of.”

Assuring them that they’ve also been considering it, the young female professor soothed the students with a thin smile.

However, suddenly, a vibration came from the female professor’s pocket.

It was a call from the Guild Association for a reason unknown.

“Everyone, be quiet. This is an important call.”

And as she took the call… The young female professor had to ask back several times, doubting her own ears.

“What!? You say that a student named Roxer defeated the ‘Jewel Golem’ on his own!??”

Five minutes before the end of the ‘Jewel Golem’ raid assessment, Roxer, who had been absent from the Awakeners Academy​ for several days.

The female professor was shocked to hear from the Guild Association that he had defeated the jewel golem on his own.

And Rika, who was worried about locking him up so he couldn’t cause any trouble if he got expelled, widened her eyes in surprise.

###

As soon as he woke up in the infirmary of the Guild Alliance,

“Roxer Cadet!! Are you okay!?”

“…What time is it now?”

“It’s 9:30 in the morning!!”

As soon as he heard the time, the blond-haired cadet with crimson eyes clenched his fist and quickly stood up from his bed.

——

◆Due to the attribute 無越肢體 (No Limits Body), you can absorb all the fatigue and shock you received as growth factors.

——

Just as the status window that appeared before his eyes stated, he felt light, as if he had absorbed even the fatigue as a growth factor.

He had been fighting relentlessly for days, consuming energy potions.

He had squeezed out all his strength to the point of fainting each time he launched an attack on the Gem Golem.

But his body felt as fresh as if he had slept for four days straight.

“Whew…. From Wednesday to Monday. We were so worried since you fainted for almost six days.”

At the nurse’s sigh, saying that he had been unconscious for what felt like six days, Roxer gave an embarrassed smile.

‘I suppose I need to get some decent sleep.’

Roxer, who had only slept a few hours and trained and hunted like a madman all night long, reluctantly got up from his special bed with a regretful expression.

He was still dressed in his battle suit.

As expected from a battle uniform provided by the Awakened Academy, known as the hope of the world.

As long as it was supplied with energy from the outside and certain magic or skills were activated, it could quickly restore the wearer, and even maintain hygiene and cleanliness at the same time.

However, no matter who you are, it feels unpleasant wearing the same clothes for several days.

“Excuse me, I’m going to use the showers and laundry facilities in the hygiene room.”

Remembering that the Guild Alliance’s facilities were provided free of charge to the students of the Awakened Academy,

He left behind the nurse’s advice to get some more rest, cleaned his body, and washed his battle suit in a rapid washing machine.

After Roxer and his suit were clean, he felt an inexplicable emptiness in his heart.

‘Is it because of my heartbeat addiction?’

His heart was pounding normally, making his daily life feel a bit dull and boring.

But he had no time to be immersed in such feelings.

After all, whether he liked it or not, his heartbeat was bound to spike again.

And he now had more important things to deal with.

“I need to get to the Academy as quickly as possible.”

The miserable interest on a debt of one billion had been prevented only because of a special privilege granted to students of the awakened academy.

However, in his madness over his first taste of heartbeat addiction and the thrill of battle, he neglected the academy.

According to the academy’s regulations, absence was not recognized unless under certain circumstances.

“…Do you think they’ll excuse me if I say I was focused on defeating the Gem Golem?”

Wondering whether such an excuse would work, Roxer immediately brought up his status window focusing on his abilities portion.

“Stamina 130…. Everything else is 40. I need to raise 10 more to reach the second awakening. Anyway.”

Having seen his stats raised to 40 from 35, he was sure he had defeated the ‘Gem Golem’.

Of course, the fact that he was alive was proof that he had successfully defeated the Gem Golem,

But there was a chance that the Gem Golem might have escaped.

As he was drying his body with a large equipment that resembled a giant hairdryer,

He took out a set of battle suits that had been repaired, refurbished, and cleaned in the washing machine.

Pressing the iron cross symbol on the cleansed suit’s name plate, he activated the function that changed the suit into academy uniform.

Then pieces of clothing whirred into a change, from the golden armours into white uniforms.

As soon as he put on the uniform, the golden armor areas flashed, revealing various screens.

“Late for the second period’s Monster Theory Class…. Fortunately, I’m not expelled. And the most important thing…”

He found information that scholarships were being awarded thanks to his first-place performance in the Gem Golem Raid evaluation.

Despite major drawbacks such as his usual behaviour and unauthorized absences,

He had achieved a difficult accomplishment of single-handedly defeating the Gem Golem, so it seemed like a well-deserved reward.

“Phew, what a relief.”

He recalled the moment he caught the Jewel Golem, exhaling a sigh of relief.

His heart pounding wildly, the chilling sensation like a limitless bungee jump.

A vivid view of shimmering violet and pink cobwebs and splashes of blue sparks.

The feeling of cutting through its sturdy core with a blow that strained all his strength.

All those sensations were still vivid.

“Well done.”

In the end, he had faced the insane difficulty of Heart Break and survived.

He had caught the Jewel Golem, something he had not even tried to catch several times in the original because of its intense difficulty.

His heart was beating again in nameless ecstasy.

A wave of confidence and the feeling that everything would work out welled up inside him.

He felt a sense of accomplishment as if he could fly into the sky with the achievement he had made here for the first time.

“The rewards from clearing the B-ranked public mission are pretty good.”

SP, the point that can be used for item purchases or spell transactions in the Guild Alliance and also indicates the rank, was as high as 5400.

Each of the 20 solo F-rank missions had 400, and the B-rank public mission ‘Jewel Golem Raid’ had 5000.

And thanks to the Guild Union taking care of the Jewel Golem’s byproducts like in the original,

While he still had a debt of 1 billion in his bank account,

In the Guild Union’s exclusive account, there was a deposit of 60 million won.

Although the value of the gems that covered the Jewel Golem’s body was modest, due to its immense size, a fair amount of money had come in.

“Isn’t this a fast way out of debt if I just focus on public missions? The start is too good.”

Roxer, who was happy to receive 60 million won, seemed to have forgotten about losing 2 billion.

He thought things would go smoothly in the future, but…

“You must face the punishment for three days of unauthorized absence from the academy, right?”

Seems Roxer’s regular behavior wasn’t too great, thus he was taken in by the college’s disciplinarian.

The professors had a heated discussion concerning Roxer’s punishment while he was unconscious.

“If the employees of the Guild Union didn’t testify that it was you who caught it, your grades would have been void! You jerk.”

The disciplinarian scolded Roxer as soon as he came out from the Guild Union.

Every day, he played the role of boyfriends of female students and disturbed lectures.

But something was different today.

“I’m sorry. I was in no condition back then…”

The usually brazen guy bowed his head.

This sudden change in him was not expected from someone who never bothered to even attend classes and who avoided all activities.

Could he have slain the Jewel Golem alone? This student who had been absent for three days without cause should have been expelled.

‘In the end, all agreed to keep an eye on him considering the situations.’

From noble mtl dot com

Roxer, who belonged to the academy, was reflecting on his actions as the professor who was in charge of him, looked at him differently today.

Once in a while, an Awakener would regain consciousness and come to terms with their power.

Whether or not this guy who’s currently hanging his head in the faculty room is one of them, the Awakener Academy primarily valued capabilities.

So for now, they decided to give a penalty for truancy and a reward for taking down the Jewel Golem alone.

No matter what method he used, cheap tricks wouldn’t last long in the Awakener Academy.

As time passed, they would see if he truly had the skills or if he was simply lucky.

The female professor smirked as she handed out his punishment.

“Sigh, the penalty is to complete 5 solo tasks of D-rank and above and 2 public tasks of F-rank and above within a week in the Guild Association. Got it?”

This exam in the name of punishment was decided by all the professors observing him.

Roxer student’s overall damage in the Jewel Golem raid was low.

However, the student had destroyed the three cores that the Jewel Golem had.

According to the Guild Association, it was as if he had only damaged the inside.

The surface of the Jewel Golem didn’t show much change and was rather in a recuperative state, but the internal cores were shattered into pieces.

Was it truly Rok Se-saengdo’s abilities that brought down the Jewel Golem’s core?

Or had it been the accumulated efforts of other saengdoers who had raided the Jewel Golem over time?

Was it simply that the nearly completely destroyed Jewel Golem’s core was dealt the final blow by a lucky hit from Rok Se-saengdo?

Not only the academy saengdoers, but also a few hunters or mercenaries had participated in defeating the Jewel Golem.

“…Yes!”

The guy responding with an optimistic expression will naturally indicate what the right answer is.

For the moment, they had postponed punishments like expulsion that need to be handed down due to his regular conduct.

However…

“…Rok Se, you’re not intending to stalk me too, are you?”

His past misdeeds hadn’t disappeared.

Seeing Rok Se excited about completing the guild association’s task as a form of punishment…

…he seemed filled with joy as if he discovered a new stalking target.

The distressed female professor in charge broke out in a cold sweat, desperately hoping he would respond negatively.

‘Is this karma…?’

Rok Se stuck out his tongue, flabbergasted by the karmic debt he had accumulated.

“Not at all. I think I’ll take my leave to attend class. Professor in charge.”

Saying that, Rok Se walked into the classroom to attend the third period class.

###

The Awakened Academy.

A place molding awakened individuals from around the world into heroes.

Quite naturally, each saengdoer had exceptional skills, since this institution nurtures those who would defend the world from all sorts of threats that jeopardize humanity.

However, when a lot of people gather, there are bound to be riff-raff.

Among them was Rok Se, the infamous stalker of class 1 in the Awakened Academy.

He irritated everyone, especially the popular female saengdoers, by acting as if he was their boyfriend.

He disrupted the classes and every other annoyance one could think of.

If they tried to beat him, he would escape using spatial teleport…well, actually time stop, but anyway.

He escaped using spatial abilities, and there was no shortage of saengdoers praying for his expulsion.

But…

‘Why doesn’t he greet other girls besides Erin and Lika?’

‘?? Rok Se is sitting quietly? He usually causes a ruckus in class.’

‘That annoying guy who used to sit at the front to get the girls’ attention…’

‘I thought for sure he was bluffing about defeating the Jewel Golem?? Why is he so quiet?’

A living legend of stalking, an unprecedented menace whenever it appeared.

“Alright, now! There is no royal road to becoming strong, but everyone has their own path. What does that ancient proverb mean? Saengdoer Rok Se, who may or may not have landed the final blow on the Jewel Golem?”

“Yes, professor. To become strong, one needs honest training, but the type of training required varies according to individual deviation.”

“For instance?”

“For melee warriors, focusing attention on the muscles controlling joints like wrists, elbows, shoulders, waist, core, hip joint, knee, ankle. Training for harmonization of thought and action. Even better if they consider the use of magic power.”

“Excellent! It’s not about just growing the body; it’s also about incorporating one’s strength into their muscles!”

Seated at the very back of the class, he paid close attention to what is considered to be the most boring class, history of heroes.

A class taught by the weirdest and rumoured middle-aged professor.

While the middle-aged professor, who spent the entire class grilling Rok Se, thought,

‘Let’s see how long he can maintain this attitude.’

Deep down, he wanted to expel Rok Se, who openly stalked the girls, from the academy.

But for now, he continued the class as everyone agreed to observe.

“Okay, that’s it for today’s class! Enjoy your lunch…”

As soon as it was lunchtime and the students were starting to get up from their seats after class was over.

Just before Erin, who intended to subtly strike up a conversation with Rok Se, extended her hand, Rok Se bolted from the classroom.

‘Huh…?’

A question mark lit up the face of Erin, one of the girls who used to be stalked by Rok Se.

It was certainly her, he’d even wake up from his sleep during classes when she approached.

‘…Why do I feel rejected?’

Erin’s mood plummeted like a puppy’s ears when she passed by, seemingly unaware of his presence.

And Rika, observing Erin from afar with caution.

‘Could it be? It’s just because the kid is too nice, right?’

Each time Roxer stalked Erin, Erin shivered her brown hair like a puppy shaking a toy in its mouth and glared with her green eyes.

Perhaps the kid just loves people like a puppy and that’s why? Rika contemplated this.

Meanwhile, the rumors of Roxer defeating the ‘Jewel Golem’ caused all sorts of questions among the students.

However, with his lack of concern and his quick departure, more and more questions arose.

“Alright, shall we go try some swordplay?”

Roxer swiftly completed both an F-ranked and D-ranked solo mission while sucking down a potion for sustenance and focusing on battles, seemingly unconcerned with anything else.
