MMORPG: Rebirth of the Shadow Mage - Chapter 7 The Castle

The smell of blood invaded my nostrils. I watched helplessly as the woman standing over me raised her sword. I was completely drained, I had no mana left, no items, nothing. As the crimson tendrils held me down by my arms and legs, all I could do was wait for my death.

As the sword drew near, I felt the last bit of courage I had disappear. I was going to die. Alone. In this god forsaken place filled with evil. And for what? To protect those ‘friends’? The same people who mocked me, took advantage of, and used me?

Oh, who am I trying to fool? I was here only because of my own greed. Because I wanted to be useful to someone. Because I wanted to that group to need me. To value me. To have a reason to keep me around. How naïve I was, thinking that power would grant those wishes. All it did was help build a wall between me and everyone else.

The sword approached. I saw the purple light reflect off the sword’s blade. After everything I went through, I hadn’t expected my death to be by the hands of another player. I saw her smile, but this time I didn’t think it was beautiful. It was an ugly smile because it was genuine. She was enjoying watching me die. She was enjoying killing me.

The sword struck my chest and pierced my heart. I let out a scream of pain and agony. The pain was so real, all of this was so real. It shouldn’t be, but it was. What should have been a simple game had become my new reality – all of our new reality. A reality filled with magic, war, blood, and death.

My vision darkened as the pain slowly faded. I felt the last of my vitality leave my body. It felt cold. I wondered to myself, when would I stop being? When would my thoughts disappear?

Soon, I saw those words I feared for all this time appear before me. “DEATH”, in the pale blue font the game always used. They remained suspended in the air for several seconds. It was over. After a long time of fighting, grinding, and exploring, it was finally over. I had died. This was the end of my story.

Suddenly, words before me shifted and changed into something different. I took a shallow breath as I heard a faint heartbeat.

- Description from novelbuddy

When Yu Yao opens her eyes, she realizes that she has transmigrated into a book that she had once read. It’s a book containing a typical story about a real daughter and a fake daughter.

The real daughter was framed, and the fake daughter was pampered by everyone. Her biological brothers had only been doting on her fake younger sister—who had been switched at birth—and hated Yu Yao tremendously. They even believed her fake sister’s lies and sent Yu Yao to a mental hospital.

Yu Yao is in the mental hospital being tortured by a perverted director when the story begins…

Our protagonist has transmigrated into the body of the pitiful real daughter, Yu Yao. She is racked with helplessness at having to endure this living hell...

What bothers her the most was that this was only the beginning. She’s aware that even if she escapes the hospital, her fake two-faced sister would not let her off so easily. Her elder brothers, who do not recognize her as family, would also help this deceptive snake in dealing with her. In the future, there would be constant trouble, and living a peaceful life would be far out of her reach. Just as she perks up and prepare for battle, there seems to be a shift in plot...

The Second Brother, who had always been the meanest to her, rescues her from the mental hospital hastily and starts showing her concern. He is tender and affection is written in his eyes.

Meanwhile, her most ruthless Eldest Brother, who had never considered her to be his younger sister, starts treasure her. He begins listening to her every demand whilst cold-shouldering her two-faced fake sister.

Yu Yao is confused. What’s going on here? This isn’t in the script! Why was she, who was supposed to be shunned by all and constantly the target of their bullying, suddenly being pampered by so many people?!

It was only after a long time that Yu Yao realizes what had happened—her elder brothers are all transmigrators too!

Originally, the book ends with a tragedy befalling the family. The two-faced fake sister betrayed them all and sent them to a tragic end. It was Yu Yao who rescued them and died in the process. After Yu Yao’s elder brothers transmigrated, they swore to protect Yu Yao with all their might as they worked endlessly to win her favor.
