CHAPTER 400: SUBSTITUTE BRIDE OF THE DEMON KING (4)

The love, fear, and resentment were all intertwined in her chest, like the entanglement of complex and different strings bunched all together. Yue Ran’s head hurt more and more, and tears kept falling from her eyes like beads of pearls dropped from a broken string.

The original owner of the body was willing to get married to the Demon King in her heart, and she was even looking forward to their union.

In the early years, when Silas had not yet become the Demon King, he had once saved the life of the original body at the foot of a mountain. Silas did not appear as crazy as he was now at that time. He was just a little indifferent at best. Saving her was also an unintentional act.

It was on that one unfortunate day. The original body went out to the mountain to find her elder twin sister but was attacked by waves of monsters at the base of the mountain. The guards in charge of her security were devoured by monsters and died, and the original body was in danger.

At such a critical juncture, the male protagonist descended from the sky and rescued her from the beast tide. He was her savior and her light. It was at that time that the original body fell in love with him at first sight.

It is a positive thing for a male protagonist to save a beauty, but it is a pity that the beauty is not the female protagonist. Unfortunately, that beauty is also a cannon fodder female supporting role. Her life was used, manipulated, and toyed around with for the amusement of the male and female protagonists, and ultimately tortured and died to prove their love for one another.

According to the plot, the original body was given to a random guard of the palace by the Demon King on the night of the wedding day.

As an abandoned chess piece, she was undoubtedly tortured miserably.

...

Silas was so frustrated that he naturally could not let Yue Ran go. As soon as he learned that Ellie was planning to escape with Andre on their wedding day, he was so incensed that he immediately sent people to track her down. He was determined to catch Ellie no matter what the cost was.

After Andre picked up the news, he suggested to Ellie that they pretend to get married. It might put an end to Silas’s desire to wed her.

In the future, they will pretend to be a couple, which will save a lot of trouble, and he will not restrict her freedom.

This was an excellent idea! It was something that would not only save her but also not need to get married for real. Ellie agreed to the plan and was very grateful for the sincere help of her close friend. However, only Andre knew of the underlying selfishness when he proposed this plan to her.

They have all underestimated the degree of madness of Silas, though.

On the day of the wedding, the male protagonist comes with his men to kill. He genuinely did like Ellie, and even if she ran away from their marriage and wed someone else, he would not do anything to hurt her.

As a result, all his pent-up rage was naturally vented on Andre. Silas crushed Andre’s magic core, which was the source of his magic, and broke his legs but spared his life. At last, Silas graciously gave Andre a new bride to replace his old one.

As for who the bride was, it goes without saying that it was the fake that Silas had married, who was the original owner of this body.

This is the so-called law of nature.

Does Andre not want to get married? Then he (Silas) will kindly let him (Andre) get married. Now this is perfect; a fake and a cripple are a natural match that should have gone hand in hand in the first place.

The original owner of the body was like a broken object. She was abused, confused, and then thrown away to Andre again, her "other" groom. She never had a choice from beginning to end.

The original body thought that she was finally free from torture and pain. But the outcome after being forced to marry Andre was nothing more than falling from one wolf’s den into a tiger’s den.

Andre, who had lost the ability to use magic because of his broken magic core, had a drastic change in his temperament. He was extremely disgusted with the face that looked very similar to Ellie’s.

Whenever Andre saw the face of the original owner of the body, he could only see his own incompetence in the wedding hall. His sweetheart, Ellie, was taken away by another man on the wedding day, and a substitute bride was stuffed to him. He was forced to wed this fake with his disabled body, and this insult continued to torment him day by day.

In a rage, Andre abandoned the original owner of the body in a forest. Then, because she had a similar appearance to the female protagonist, the original body was kidnapped by an evil man. The evil man wanted to use her to threaten both Silas and Andre. Then again, how could the two of them be manipulated by a fake? Therefore, they naturally refused to pay attention to the evil man and the original body herself.

Later on, it was discovered that the original owner of the body possessed a rare physique that could enhance the magic of the individual who slept with her. The original body ended up being reduced to a tool, tossed, and turned on the bed for the evil man and his group to increase the storage and quality of their magic core. One can only imagine her extremely miserable end.

The original owner of the body genuinely did not understand what she did wrong. She was unable to grasp where she had gone astray.
