[Precognition] [Superpowers] [Infinite Flow] [Survival]
Chen Shuo is reborn as a mayfly with a full three days to live, far longer than the lifespan of its dawn-born, dusk-dead kin. Calling itself comfortably well-off would hardly be an exaggeration.
But give someone a thousand coins and they will want ten thousand; make them emperor and they will want to become immortal. Insects are greedy, and three days is far too short compared with the thousand-year lifespans, or outright immortality, enjoyed by other magical beasts.
To gain a longer life, it decides to prolong its existence by taking over the bodies of other magical beasts. But in its visions of the future, no matter what kind of beast it possesses, it always ends up being killed by a legendary Beast King.
It struggles, it ambushes, it crawls along in a twisted, sinister fashion. In the end, it despairs!
If that's how it is, then it will have to take the long way around. An insect that refuses to give anything up will never gain anything!
If you can't beat them, you might as well join them!
“Shuozi, what are you doing?”
“A diary? Come on, no respectable person keeps a diary!”
“A-Shuo, so you aren't human...”
“Gah!”
Chen Shuo jerked upright and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
“Good thing it was only a dream!”
But what was with the ghostly figures wandering all over campus? How could the English teacher move things with her mind? Why was the dorm supervisor burning all over? The twin-tailed girl was certainly cute, but why did she have rabbit ears on her head...?
What do you mean? They're allies!
Then these other guys only look a little weird. They're here to help us too, right?
“...”
Right?!
Chen Shuo looked at them with hope in his eyes.
“...”
Chen Shuo, do your best to survive today too!
