Insect Queen, but I Have Entomophobia

Also known as: "The Insect Queen, but I Have Entomophobia," "Can a Useless Little Butterfly Be the Insect Queen?" and "The Insect Queen Protagonist Rules the Stars"

Chi Hui transmigrates into an insectoid world.

Here, everyone is an insectoid nonhuman, and they can transform into gigantic insect monsters at the drop of a hat. The vibe is pure cosmic horror.

On the first day of school, the teacher gives the order, and all her classmates transform into insects. Chi Hui just goes ker-plunk and faints.

Teacher (frantically pressing her philtrum): What's wrong with you?

Chi Hui (terrified): I faint at the sight of bugs.jpg

After some time to adjust, Chi Hui realizes that she just can't get used to it.

In biology class, the second the teacher brings out a diagram of an insect being dissected, she faints.

In combat class, no matter how badly she beats her opponent, the second they reveal their insect form, she faints.

Even during her monthly and midterm exams, all sorts of unexpected situations make her faint wherever she happens to be. While everyone else remains perfectly calm, she glides smoothly into the infirmary.

When she looks up at the familiar infirmary ceiling for the 10,086th time, the excited insectoids gathered around her startle her.

"Congratulations, Your Highness."

The teacher says excitedly, tears in their eyes. "You've awakened your insect form."

"You are actually the long-lost princess of our royal insectoid family, the Red-Eyed Butterfly clan."

Chi Hui: "?"

Huh? The princess? Me???

After she is brought back to the royal family, Chi Hui's whole outlook changes.

Before long, she will inherit the throne and become the next Insect Queen.

So, here's the question.

Chi Hui rests her chin in her hand and ponders.

How can she make sure she doesn't faint on the day of her coronation, surrounded by so many nonhuman insectoids???
