CHAPTER 401: SUBSTITUTE BRIDE OF THE DEMON KING (5)

The original owner of the body did not desire anything else but a safe and tranquil life. She yearned for nothing more than the simple joys that come with ordinary living—stability, security, and the peace that accompanies them— even if her love was not fulfilled.

However, even this tiny wish had turned into a distant fantasy, tantalizingly close yet ultimately unattainable, as if it were a luxury reserved for others while she remained bound by her reality.

In the original plot, the original owner of the body had ended up with a tragic death— a horrible end. On top of that, no one would care about the ending of mere cannon fodder— not her twin sister, the female protagonist, who was the one who had started it all, and not her parents, who had abandoned her. No one would care for the original body at all.

After the female protagonist fled from marriage, Silas also came to the realization that a tough attitude would not be able to influence the other party.

Thus, the male protagonist could only keep his possessiveness in check and slowly approach the other party to impress her. In the end, he gave up his identity as a Demon King for the female protagonist, and he was willing to become an ordinary person. A series of operations finally moved the female protagonist, and the two of them lived in seclusion in the Western fantasy world. Their story was spread around, and they became an enviable couple in the world.

This plot is so blatantly ridiculous that Yue Ran felt disgusted!

For the male protagonist and female protagonist, this ending is indeed very pleasing.

However, the happiness of these two people is built based on the pain and suffering of others. The original owner of the body was looking forward to someone to save her until the end of her life. Still, unfortunately, no one did, even if she had waited until her death.

It was really miserable.

After Yue Ran merged with those memories and the world information, her head was throbbing with more pain.

What kind of old and awful plot is this?! It would take at least ten years of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis to write such a lousy thing! The cannon fodder female supporting role is tortured to death. Just because one is the female supporting role, does it mean that one is not considered a person with no feelings and can be abused and toyed with at will?

(*Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) occurs when a blood clot forms in the brain’s venous sinuses. The clot stops blood from draining out of the brain. As a result, pressure builds up in the blood vessels. This can result in swelling and bleeding (hemorrhage) in the brain.)

If Yue Ran had come a quarter of an hour earlier into this world, she would not have ended up in this situation. She must have planned to escape on the way and would have successfully done so. Who would want to stay and get tortured? She is not a masochist.

It was all because of that ruthless Lord God who threw her into this world so unprepared! She ought to have known why the previous missions allocated to her were too easy to complete! So this kind of scheme was waiting for her in the end!

Yue Ran was lifted up by someone by the neck. Her white diamond earrings swung, drawing a sharp arc in the air, and finally, her back struck against the wall.

Yue Ran subconsciously hissed in pain. It hurts!

The severe pain made her breathing stagnate a little, and her long and naturally curled eyelashes fluttered and slowly opened.

She subconsciously raised her head. Because of her hazy consciousness, her vision was blurred for a moment when she looked at the eye-catching, bloody red-haired person in front of her. Then, she saw the high and mighty Demon King sneer and tighten his hand.

"I hate this face that looks so similar to hers," Silas said. His eyebrows were cold, and his narrow eyes showed a careless anger. After that, he flung her to the ground at the feet of a guard. "I will give it to you; make sure to serve it well."

Yue Ran, who was accustomed to seeing scumbags, could not help but want to curse him!

This male protagonist is seriously insane. In his eyes, except for the female protagonist, everyone else is a worthless ant.

Does he care about the life and death of ants? Of course not.

Yue Ran had just come back to her senses and instantly heard the male protagonist speak the identical words as in the original plot, with the exact same timing and word count, which really made her want to torture him first before letting him die slowly in pain.

The difficulty index of this mission is a bit high.

Yue Ran lowered her eyes slightly. If she could not change the status quo, she would not be able to continue the mission while guaranteeing her own safety.

As for the wish of the original owner of this body...

The young woman had to make the mission targets— the male protagonist and the second male protagonist— who had hurt the original owner of the body to suffer the consequences and abuse them well to complete the wish of the original body. Naturally, the female protagonist is not innocent either since she was the source of the pain of the original owner of this body.

Yue Ran likes it. She likes to abuse people’s feelings the most and make them suffer pain even worse than physical ones.

After all, it was always a pleasure to watch these vile and hateful individuals, who do not regard her as a human in their eyes, in agony.

Anyway, Yue Ran arrived in this world a little too late. The plot progresses to the point where the male protagonist has fallen in love with the female protagonist.
