Am I Allowed to Kill the Male Lead? - Chapter 1

Chapter 1

Translator: Yonnee

—

A woman by the name of Yoo Eunha had an interesting, but pitiful story.

She had been miserably dumped by her boyfriend, who himself was trash garbage. Because of this, she tried to take her own life, but it was through this incident that she met a man who was handsome enough that you’d just melt into a puddle then and there.

The man frowned at Eunha and said this,

“Why are you so thin? It’s like you’ll die any moment now.”

Then, he grabbed her wrist.

“Well, it doesn’t matter. From now on, you are my slave.”

He just declared this out of the blue and kissed her right away. Then had s*x. This was her first time.

The next time Yoon Eunha opened her eyes was at a hospital, but she soon returned to her daily life. Even so, that man appeared in her dreams every single night, devouring her thoroughly.

As it turned out, he was the devil named Beelzebuth, a demon king who appeared in dreams. And, as it turned out, ‘Yoo Eunha’ was a mouthwateringly fragrant prey who drove all the demons crazy.

Of course, being ‘devoured’ here meant coercive s*x. She had infinite s*x with this sadistic devil.

Until then, the story would drag on and on… forever and ever… until the end of time, for as long as this webnovel continued to be a cashcow that made lots of money…

Well, for the writer to cry about it, saying they wanted to stop— don’t you think they chose the wrong plot? They couldn’t possibly say that now. The writer would have to keep going.

Yoo Eunha, both body and mind, must continue to be tamed by the sadistic devil. Then, it’s not certain when, but once the time comes, the novel would have a proper ending. Perhaps she would marry the devil…

But, y’know.

It’s me.

It’s my story.

I am the female lead of the novel called ‘Devil’s Vivace’.

And, as any quick-witted reader would have already noticed, this novel was a dark, depraved, and slightly immature SM-centered, male-oriented novel. ‘Yoo Eunha’ was rolled around. ‘Yoo Eunha’ was born to be rolled over here and there and everywhere.

S*x also needed enough stamina, of course. So, as the female lead of a novel where the characters had more than five hours of s*x every day, I had unlimited stamina and energy, and nothing could hurt me.

But of course, I had a weakness, too.

It’s my ankle.

My ankle was quite prone to injury, you see. Only the male lead could see through this mythical weak point of mine. Thus, at around chapter 35 of ‘Devil’s Vivace’, he went on to break my ankle, imprison me, and had s*x with me.

You could roughly guess what themes this novel had, yes? Our world was this kind of novel.

FYI, just because I was living a frustrating, sweet potato-like life like this, I don’t intend to have someone else swoop in, transmigrate into my body, and bring some refreshing cider to this story or anything. I’ve got no plans for that at all.

And it’s not like I had plans of struggling against my ‘bleak’ future, nor was I determined to do something like go against my fate. I’m perfectly satisfied with this frustrating and unhappy life, thank you very much.

I had willfully decided as such. Of course, there were many complaints, but it’s not like I was dissatisfied with my own dark future that’s to come.

Rather, I was dissatisfied that my dark future wasn’t coming to me any sooner.

Let me show you what I mean. Here’s an excerpt from a particular chapter:

Devil’s Vivace, Chapter 63—

「 No matter how many times you hit me, it’s no use. 」

Completely naked, Yoo Eunha waited for the whip to come.

In front of her was Beelzebuth, the devil male lead who was donned in a sophisticated full-dress military uniform. He eased his long fingers off the end of the riding crop. His appearance alone was enough to show that this was a true erotica.

With his black hair half combed back, his red eyes looking down at the woman with sinister affection.

In a low voice, Beelzebuth growled.

「 Come now. Tell me that you will be my slave forever. 」

「 No. 」

Yoo Eunha, pitifully, turned her head away. Her long, light brown hair that was tickling her chest cascaded down gently.

Impatience and excitement rose upon the male lead’s expression as he took in the sensual sight.

「 You’re driving me crazy. Why won’t you listen, hm? 」

And right then, the air was cut sharply by the wind. Beelzebuth was a violent man through and through, and this was the biggest feature, advantage and disadvantage of the novel, ‘Devil’s Vivace’. If a reader likes it, they would like it immensely.

Eunha closed her eyes tightly.

However…

“……”

Howeveeer…

It didn’t come.

“……”

No matter how long she waited, the whip just wouldn’t come.

As the silence between them stretched on suspiciously longer, Yoo Eunha…

No, ‘I’ opened my eyes slightly.

Beelzebuth, the master of the devil palace, the legitimate monarch of the devildom, and the romanticist-slash-evil sadist who’s obsessed with the female lead, with a riding crop in hand… was hesitating.

What’s the point of holding that thing when you’re not gonna hit me?

I quickly lowered my voice, whispering so quietly that the readers of the novel wouldn’t be able to hear.

“Wanna die?”

Here we go again.

“What the heck are you doing? Hit me.”

Bel then begged, speaking ever so quietly as well so that the readers wouldn’t notice.

“But I don’t wish to hit you.”

“Aigoo.”

“This is my limit.”

Still keeping myself quiet so that the readers wouldn’t hear, I clicked my tongue.

At this, Bel shuddered in fear, but he remained unyielding to my threats. He was the very picture of a noble male lead right now.

“I want to stop playing the role of the ‘male lead’ now, please. I, I just… I don’t want you to get hurt. I don’t want you to be in pain. I’d rather be hit.”

t/n: as with all korean smut, reader discretion is advised~ while this one has a pretty comedic tone, the themes and subjects situated herein are still pretty heavy (including but not limited to: S&M, coercive characters, graphic scenes, etc.)

welp, if you’re a depraved r19 goblin (like me), just ignore the previous paragraph and, as the wise, age-old biblical passage goes—say it with me now—‘that sign can’t stop me because i can’t read!’

sidenote: im terribly swamped. i don’t even have enough time to play my new otome games anymore. tears of the kingdom is about to come out, too. idk why i keep picking up more translation projects… anyhoo, updates will be sporadic until further notice, but this is kinda a fun novel, so i might still update it often anyway (‘might’ being the keyword here)
