After transmigrating into a fantasy novel, to the body of a Cannon fodder, she realizes her identity may not be as simple as she thought it was.
Waking up to slight pain behind her neck, she scanned her surroundings. She was in an unfamiliar room. The last thing she remembered was being at a dinner party and felt a force from behind pushing her down the roof before completely going unconscious. She had thought the fall would kill her but it seemed like she managed to survive.
She looked around again. This room was quite luxurious. Even she who claimed to have seen it all was in slight awe. It looks like the person who saved her was a big shot?
She made her way back to the bed and sprawled on the cloud soft bed. Since she was here she might as well take advantage of it.
The next time she woke up her eyes no longer had that relaxed light. Because she realized she might have transmigrated!
While she was sleeping, memories that did not belong to get poured into her brain. This body is called Aadvitha and she grew up in an orphanage, a few months ago she was chosen as the blood slave of the vampire king and was bought back. She was initially scared of him but since she came here no one had harmed her and she lived a good life so she slowly let down her guard and even fell in love with him! It made Lucy* want to vomit blood because she recognized this plot. She didn't realize it at first because the body she was currently in didn't even make it to the second chapter. She was only mentioned in about two sentences in the male protagonists memories.
The book was a bloody fantasy novel called 'her death, his redemption ' it was written from the male protagonists point of view. And this male protagonist was a narcissist who thought no one was as good as even the soles of his feet.
As the only remaining pure blood vampire and blood king , Drayven Ascelia was the epitome of a tyrant. He was moody, sadistic and knew no boundaries. He did things recklessly and didn't mind the consequences. There was nothing that could interst him. Until he met the little girl Aadvitha. She had clear eyes full of innocence and devoid of any darkness. She is clearly someone who had not been tainted by the world and it irritated him, so he takes her as a blood slave. But that was only in name because drinking from her would only cause him pain. He was only interested in how he would break her and cause that innocence to vanish from her eyes bit by bit.
The world wasn't as lively back then. They was only one man in Ahganon*. He was the valley lord*. After decades of living alone, he created humans. He guarded them and they regarded him as their god. But he got tired of the monotous life and decided to retire, so he created vampires to protect humans. They were faster and stronger than humans. He was satisfied with his creation and stayed to supervise in order to make sure everything was fine before putting himself to sleep.
But the vampires rebeled. They began to indiscriminately kill humans and imprison them. The valley lord became angry and cursed all vampires to be bloodthirsty and immortal. But the catch was that they could not drink human blood. Any vampire who drank human blood would face immeasurable pain but wouldn't be able to die because of their immortality. So anyone of them who drank from humans would suffer terribly and they realized that something was wrong. They were extremely weak with pain during that time which made it easy for the kept humans to escape.
But the humans being ingrates, cursed at him and blamed him for all their misfortunes, as such he did not bother protecting them anymore and destroyed him physical body then sealed his primodal spirit. The surge of released energy and the void caused by his sealing was a catalyst and from the residual magic, dragons were born.
Over time, more creatures emerged . Demons who were expelled from Aethoria* and faes who were born from nature.
The purer their bloodline, the more pain a vampire feels if they consume human blood, but over the years vampires cross mated with different species and the bloodline became less pure as the generations progressed. But he, as the blood king had the purest bloodline. However not taking a blood slave would arouse alot of suspicion and this was a weakness that could not be exposed to anyone. So he took a little girl as his blood slave but never touched her and saw as the fear in her eyes changed to reverence and then love. It was quite amusing to him. She would always rush in front of him whenever something happened and that was the case as well when those bloody demons attacked his palace. She had rushed in front of him and ended up being hit with one of their spells. How stupid. He was quite annoyed because of her stupidity and sighed at the loss.
It might have been okay if his redemption arc started there but no. And that was everything the book had to say about her. She was never mentioned again. It was as if she had not existed at all. She might have been a bit stupid but her feelings for him were real. She was a little girl with dreams for her future just like anyone else. While reading the book Lucy had criticized him as a scumbag and rained abuses on her for being so stupid.
His life continues as usual until he meets an injured fae. Something draws him to her and so he nurtures her to health personally. They gradually fall in love but just then, the world begins to collapse. Someone had destroyed the trinity stone and the world fell into imbalance. They were unpredictable magical surges and territorial boundaries were collapsing leading to conflicts. As a fae, only their light magic can really counteract the dark surges, so she leaves and he follows . They waged ware and left trails of blood to the middle of Aghanon but they realized that they couldn't kill Zha' thik, the creature that lived in the middle of the world so she could only seal him by exhausting her life force but it wasn't enough so there were little cracks where creatures would come out from. The would became like a purgatory being plauged by shadowborn, wrymkins and bloodwraits*.
Seeing his beloved die in order to restore order to the world, Drayven Ascelin used his immortality to battle those creatures for eternity. But the world could never go back to the way it was.
After reading that book all I had to say was
What the actual *beeep*!
Everyone was so stupid and people kept dying like chickens.
Now I've become the first chicken who died.
I tried to brainwash myself. It'll be fine. Besides now I know what's going to happen so I can avoid it. This body has been here for an average of five months so I only needed to survive in this place for a year and two months. I could find a way to escape in the chaos when the demons came to attack the castle.
Having come to a conclusion, I allowed myself to relax onec more. I looked around for a mirror and found a bronze mirrow on the table.
I didn't know what to expect but I raised it with some slight anticipation.
The person in the mirror was five to six points similar to my original self.
The only difference was that she had midnight dark hair while I was blonde in my real world and her eyes were a striking green while mine were brownish amber.
There wouldn't have been that much difference but she was malnourished and exceptionally pale so she looked like the starved version of me if I played dress up. I touched my hair again. It was waist length and beautifully brushed .
I touched the face.. my face and had to sigh
"I don't think even that vampire is as pale as I am" I have to work hard at getting tan. I can't be walking around looking like a ghost.
I dropped the mirror on the chair and a knocked sounded on my door.
"Aadvitha , the lord is back. He asked for you "
"Tell him I'm busy "
The person at the other end seemed taken aback by my reply and began to persuade me
"Aadvitha , I know you got injured for the lord and so he is being tolerant of you but if you take it too far he might get angry"
My hand went back to my neck where a large piece of skin was scraped off
So he caused this too huh?
The knocking persisted and the person seemed anxious so I decided to go meet our male lead. It's not like I can have a complete change of character just like that. In this world where magic exists, if I show any abnormality, I might end up getting purged.
I walked to the door and unlocked it, coming face to face with a young girl in a servants uniform. She pulled my hand and started walking swiftly
"Oh dear Aadvitha you finally came out. Quickly now, we cannot keep the lord waiting"
I let her do whatever she wants. It's not like a new where to go anyways.
We got to a door and she bowed with reverence before reaching out to knock quietly
"Come"
A voice replied from inside the room and she bowed again before motioning for me to go in.
I walked inside the room and the doors shut behind me.
I saw a man sitting on a large throne. His feet were crossed and he held his chin in one hand and was twirling a dagger with another hand looking quite bored.
When I reached him he smiled slightly and dropped the dagger. I stared at him and he stared back.
He looked straight into my eyes and stuff frowned
"What happened to you?"
I raise a brow
"Nothing. My lord"
He frowned again. And I kept a small polite smile on my lips.
The first thing I wanted to do was break my previous character design in front of this devil. Even if he searched, the only thing that could explain my sudden change was that I finally came to my senses and no longer had any thoughts about him. I had everything sorted out and had forgotten my previous thoughts about not breaking the character design.
We were in a deadlock for a few seconds before his face turned completely cold. The amiable atmosphere from before vanished into thin air. I was slightly surprised but then sneered mockingly. This was who he really was, all that niceness was because the original owner was a little white rabbit.
But I can't help it. Being a little white rabbit will only get me killed. Although this might get me killed as well but at least I'll know I had it coming.
His eyes narrowed when he looked at me and then gestured to the door
"Go"
I bow slightly and then turn to leave. Not looking back once.
Like I guessed, he had people follow me around to see who I talked to and what I did.
After not finding anything he seemed to realize that I might just not like him anymore and he got bored.
The reason why he was interested in the original owner is because she was extremely innocent. A kind of innocence that is clearly reflected in her eyes. But I'm different.
He decided to leave me alone as he didn't deem me worthy of his attention anymore.
My life should have gotten better after this right? But no. It only got worse.
