The World’s Strongest Daughter - The World’s Strongest Daughter Prologue

What is the world’s strongest?

Literally, it probably means the strongest person.

So, what do you need to do to become the best in the world?

“···flaw.”

Considering the situation, it was ridiculous that he was thinking like this, so he laughed out loud.

Speaking of being the strongest in the world, it is literally the pinnacle of a field.

In order to reach the top position, it is impossible to surpass it with a lot of effort and talent.

Even if you try hard enough, you can keep up, but the wall of talent is dead and you can’t overcome it even when you wake up.

You can be confident because you know who has reached the apex better than anyone else.

“····.”

Yeah, that’s really absurd.

I let out a heavy sigh and checked the message that appeared in front of me once again.

[ Make Min So-yeon the strongest in the world. *If it fails, the world will be destroyed ]

No way, really.

In the age of monsters jumping out of gates and people spewing fire, it is not unusual to see such a message.

But that was the problem.

There is only one Min So-yeon I know in this world.

My only daughter, Soyeon.

To make that little girl the strongest in the world… she’s not even my daughter anymore.

Min So-yeon’s father, ‘I’ Sung-jae Min, has long since passed away.

I, who died while performing a mission three years ago, came back to life about two years ago,

I, who was suddenly revived, wasted time trying to prove that I was ‘I’.

One year after my death, all of my family’s contact information had already changed, and the house had been emptied.

Just in case, I went to visit some close acquaintances, but they were ignored as they saw me as a child impersonating a dead ‘I’.

In a situation where even access was impossible, there was nothing I could do.

It was just a few days ago that I accepted this bitter reality and decided to live a second life.

But now, come and go to Soyeon… .

I wonder if this is too much

*

I glanced at the familiar design of the school uniform hanging on the wall.

How long have you been wearing it?

Seeing a school uniform whose design hasn’t changed much even after a long time has passed, I was somewhat moved.

14 years.

It has already been 14 years since I graduated from ‘Academy’.

If you don’t know human life, who would have thought that you would wear this uniform again?

“… .”

I let out a short sigh and grabbed my uniform.

After changing into a uniform with an awkward movement that seemed familiar, I glanced at the small mirror attached to the door.

“driving me crazy… .”

Looking at my reflection in the mirror, I really started to feel like I was going to the academy.

Competent compulsory education institution. aka Academy.

It is an educational institution run by the state in line with the present age in which ‘gate’ is incorporated into daily life.

Those with the ability must receive at least three years of compulsory education,

During the training period, you can perform missions according to the rank you have been given.

After completing the education and receiving a rank, you will have the right to enter and leave the ‘gate’ legally.

They are called ‘hunters’ in society and can officially work.

I, who was an A-rank hunter in my lifetime, paired up with my wife, who was called ‘the strongest’, and made quite a few achievements.

In the end, he died… .

Committed to living a new life, I faced a mysterious message and set out to find information about my daughter again.

After several days of searching for information, relying on the only source of information, the Internet, I was able to find out that she was going to the academy.

When I reckoned her age, it was the right time to enter the academy.

As a result of hastily preparing for admission, fortunately, I was able to enter the academy with my daughter.

I don’t know if I had entered the school earlier, but if I had entered the school one year later, I would have faced a strange situation in which I, as a parent, would become my daughter’s junior.

“····.”

I don’t know when I’ll meet my daughter, so while I was dressing up in advance, a name tag on my chest suddenly caught my attention.

[ Yoo Ji-hwan ]

Yoo Ji-hwan, who has grown accustomed to… . My name was written on it.

Yoo Ji-hwan’s name is not Min Sung-jae.

After fiddling with my nameplate for nothing and taking a heavy sigh, I quickly made up my mind and started preparing for school.

On the way to the academy.

At that moment, while looking at the floor blankly, the other school students who were walking in front of them suddenly stopped and began to whisper in small voices.

“Let’s go over there.”

“suddenly? why?”

To say it was whispering, it was at a level that even me, who was walking right behind me, could hear it.

“That alley is where you assholes smoke.”

“…that, right?”

tobacco?

The students ahead of me turned around and went out into the next alley, and I continued walking without thinking.

And after a while.

I was able to find the alley the students were talking about a while ago.

A narrow alley with a strange shade.

It was definitely a good place to smoke secretly.

… Cigarettes are good enough.

At least he doesn’t beat people or steal money, so maybe he’s relatively quiet.

Just as I was about to pass by the alley quietly with such meaningless thoughts…

pong-

A muffled sound was heard from inside the alley.

It was like the sound of opening the lid of a lighter, as if he had heard it before.

Involuntarily reacting to the sound, I turned my gaze towards the alley, and found someone lighting a cigarette inside the alley.

Long black hair and fluttering sparks of lighters.

She was smoking a cigarette while wearing familiar clothes.

… uh?

She was also an academy student like me.

Tsutsuk, already smoking…

There is a student at the academy who secretly smokes a cigarette right before going to school, so I think we need to be a little more careful.

Because I can’t even have a bad influence on our Soyeon.

Just like that, I was about to kick my tongue inward and start walking again…

“····.”

Her eyes met with a cigarette in her mouth.

Big eyes with a slightly sharp impression and a dot on the corner of the mouth.

and… .

A jacket proving that he was an academy student and a name tag hanging from his chest attracted attention.

… uh?

“Uh, uh…!”

I pointed at her, startled, and spit out the cigarette she was holding in her mouth.

“···What.”

Natural civi tone.

It’s not something I’ve done once or twice.

A name that should never have been written was written on her chest that looked like a raw lamb.

[ Min So Yeon ]

It was the worst reunion with my daughter whom I had not seen in a long time.
