(No heroine, guns, not an invincible protagonist, behind-the-scenes plotting, slow burn, community-minded, subverting tropes, unconventional beast-taming, not a mindless power fantasy. If that's not your thing, don't read.)
My name is Wanqi An. An means peace and contentment, a quiet and peaceful life.
That's what my parents wanted for me.
But unfortunately, I'm a reckless brute. I can become the sharpest blade in the world, but I could never become a general.
And it was because of my nature that I charged into a biological exclusion zone, ignoring everyone's warnings.
Maybe I'm the protagonist. Not only did I survive, I also brought back the secret of this world.
It turned out that we lived inside the egg of an abyssal behemoth, and every living thing inside would eventually become food for the creature when it hatched.
But we didn't give up. We tried to fight back. We failed, but the abyssal behemoth didn't succeed either.
I, Wanqi An.
After enduring the erosion of countless years of nothingness, I suddenly discovered that I had been reborn.
I don't care whether this is a dream. Wanqi An has never cared about things like that. He just needs to do what he wants.
He has parents, teachers, and brothers. He can rely on them, even if all of this is a dream!
I, Wanqi An, just have to do the best I can.
