Forced to Sell Myself to the Female Lead After Killing the Male Lead

“Who?!!!”

The sudden voice shocked and delighted Fan Yumo at the same time.

The delightful part was—

after god knew how long, he had finally heard another person’s voice inside this godforsaken place!!!

The shocking part was—

how the hell could there actually be another voice in this godforsaken place?!

Caught completely off guard, Fan Yumo’s soul abruptly turned around and looked warily toward the source of the voice behind him.

Only to see that within the endless darkness that had previously contained absolutely nothing,

a golden crack suddenly appeared.

The crack rapidly spread outward until it eventually transformed into a door-sized rift!

Then,

under Fan Yumo’s stunned gaze, a girl slowly passed through the rift and floated into this endless dark world of nothingness.

??!!

“Y-you...”

Looking at the silver-haired woman who had suddenly appeared before him, Fan Yumo felt incomparably shocked.

Perhaps it was a completely inappropriate thought at a time like this,

but—

the woman before him was simply too beautiful.

So beautiful that Fan Yumo’s nonexistent “heartbeat” started accelerating wildly!

Her dazzling silver-white hair flowed downward like a waterfall of snow.

Curved willow-like brows, golden eyes capable of stealing souls, a delicate nose, soft cherry-like lips, and a jade-like oval face combined into a flawless appearance. Along with her graceful figure, skin as pure and pristine as white magnolia petals, and those affectionate eyes filled with tenderness—

she formed a scene of beauty beyond description.

Although she wore only a simple white dress,

that very simplicity only further emphasized her holy and sacred aura.

Without question,

all the actresses and models Fan Yumo had admired online in his previous life became completely insignificant compared to the girl before him.

The virgin boy froze completely the instant he saw the silver-haired girl, utterly at a loss.

His brain shut down on the spot.

Only after a long while did he finally recover his senses.

After violently shaking his head and calming his restless emotions, Fan Yumo took a deep breath and slowly spoke.

“U-um... who exactly are you?”

Then he suddenly realized something shocking.

His soul could actually speak?!!

What the fuck was going on now?!

Earlier, while trapped inside this space, he couldn’t make any sound at all! And wasn’t he a soul? How the hell was he talking?!

Fan Yumo became dumbfounded once again, staring blankly at his own body.

Seeing this,

the mysterious silver-haired girl in front of him shook her head helplessly, half amused and half exasperated, before flicking his forehead lightly.

“Alright already, stop overthinking nonsense. Why you can talk isn’t important, okay?”

??!

“Ah... well...”

Seeing that the other party had directly seen through his thoughts, Fan Yumo immediately became speechless.

But after thinking about it, she really did have a point.

At this stage,

whether he could talk or not genuinely wasn’t important anymore.

Hadn’t he already encountered enough completely unexplainable things lately?

One more wouldn’t make a difference.

Thinking that way, Fan Yumo stopped dwelling on it.

After calming himself down, he respectfully looked toward the mysterious silver-haired girl before him.

“Um... Miss? May I ask who you are?”

“Hmm? As for that question, I don’t really feel like answering right now. You only need to know one thing.”

The girl casually twirled her silver hair around her finger as she replied lazily.

“I can get you out of here.”

“Really?! You can actually let me leave? You’re not messing with me?”

“It’s true. I don’t have any interest in messing with you.”

“Then... do you need me to do something for you? I doubt you’d go through the trouble of helping me leave for no reason.”

Fan Yumo unconsciously clenched his fists.

He didn’t believe free lunches existed.

There was no way this woman would appear before him for absolutely no reason and claim she wanted to help him escape.

And as expected, 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

his guess was correct.

The silver-haired girl smiled slightly and nodded.

“Enmm, helping you leave this isolated little space is actually very simple. It’s not troublesome at all. But yes, I do need your help with something.”

“What do you need me to do?”

“Become a boss for me.”

“Huh? A boss? What does that mean?”

“A villain, obviously. The type that causes trouble for the protagonist group.”

“Huh??! A villain boss?!”

Hearing the silver-haired girl’s explanation, the boy froze.

Countless novels and anime about transmigrating into villains instantly surfaced inside his mind.

“You mean you want me to transmigrate into some novel or game world and become the villain boss there?! Then... if that’s the case, can I ask what kind of ending this has? Is it a happy ending?”

“Games? Novels? Ah, no, not those. There’s no script.”

“No script?”

“Yep. It’s not some fictional world. You can think of it as an independent alternate world. You’ll become the boss there and create obstacles for the protagonist group while tempering them.”

“An alternate world? Then what’s this ‘protagonist group’ supposed to mean?”

“Just some people I threw into that world to undergo trials. You can think of them as the ‘male lead,’ ‘female lead,’ and so on. Anyway, your job is simply to obstruct them! Make sure they can’t complete their missions too easily!”

“What missions?”

“If you agree, I’ll directly transfer the details into your mind in the form of memories.”

Hearing those words, Fan Yumo fell silent briefly.

A moment later, he asked nervously,

“Then... as the boss, will I die? Will I eventually get killed by the protagonists?”

“Not necessarily. That depends on how you handle things.”

“Uh... then if I survive and complete the mission, what happens afterward?”

“You can do whatever you want.”

The silver-haired girl slowly floated closer to Fan Yumo and lifted his chin teasingly with her finger.

“In short, this is a deal. Once you agree, I’ll take you out of this place. In exchange, you’ll become the boss of that world, help me train the ‘protagonist group,’ and aid their growth~ Once everything is over, you’ll be free. After that, you can do whatever you want, and I won’t bother controlling you. Maybe I’ll even let you return to your original timeline and see your family again~”

“That... honestly sounds like a pretty good deal for someone in my current situation.”

“So? What’s your decision?”

....

After taking a deep breath, Fan Yumo slowly nodded.

“I accept the deal.”

After all,

for the current him, as long as he could leave this damned place, nothing else really mattered.

Hearing the answer she had expected from the start, the silver-haired girl smiled with satisfaction.

“Good. Then the contract is established.”

“Oh, right!”

“Hm? What now?”

“How am I supposed to tell who the male and female leads are?” Fan Yumo asked curiously.

“That sort of thing will all be included in the memories I transfer to you later. No need to rush asking now.”

The silver-haired girl smiled mysteriously.

“But since you already asked, I can tell you this much.”

“As for the female lead...”

“When you meet her, you’ll naturally feel it.”

“What? What kind of answer is that?”

Hearing that reply, Fan Yumo was completely baffled, the corners of her brows twitching slightly. Wasn’t that basically the same as saying, “Listening to your words was like listening to your words”?

However,

the silver-haired girl in front of her clearly had no intention of properly answering Fan Yumo’s question. Instead, she casually raised a finger to her lips.

“Enmm, as for the ‘male lead,’ those kinds of things have golden rune markings on their backs.”

“Uh...”

For some reason, Fan Yumo couldn’t help feeling that when the woman mentioned the words “male lead,” a trace of disgust seemed to flash through her eyes.

Or perhaps even hatred...
