The Interstellar Realm's Number One Star-Box Master

Ye Yitong, a master of micro-carving, transmigrates into a futuristic interstellar novel. This world has advanced technology and mech supremacy. The heart of a mech, the Star Box, is its core design, and the Star Boxes of high-end mechs are built with mental power.

As a second-class citizen with weak mental power, Ye Yitong is assigned to work as an assembly worker at a civilian mech factory... He steadily works his way up, believing that diligence can make up for a lack of talent, until he collides with a world of true geniuses.

First-class citizens with high mental power have a natural advantage, and the protagonist of the novel is a heaven-blessed favorite with a System...

His own efforts seem so weak by comparison. Everyone around him is drawn to the protagonist, except the proud young master of the group, who keeps hovering around him, making a fuss.

Ye Yitong asks with self-deprecation, "Would you still love me if I didn't have a golden finger?"

Rong Qi shoots him a glare. "Ha! I'm your biggest golden finger! You idiot."

Ye Yitong always thinks it's a joke, until he eventually discovers... Rong Qi isn't even human...

Rong Qi: "Hey, hey! Why are you ignoring me again?! I'm fuming.jpg"

Ye Yitong's hard-working routine: get a job → save money → buy parts → build Star Boxes → improve his skills → get into a prestigious academy → enter competitions and earn a ranking...

Rong Qi's routine: pay to get into a prestigious academy → pay to enter competitions → pay to get his wife's attention... Huh? Why isn't it working? I must not have spent enough → go berserk and beat up my "rivals" → make a fortune → pay to get his wife's attention... Huh? Why isn't it working this time either? I must not have spent enough → go berserk and beat up my "rivals" → make a fortune → go berserk and beat up my "rivals"... → spend money, spend money, go berserk, go berserk, go berserk...

Everyone: Engineer Ye, do something about your partner! He's gone berserk and is biting people again!

Ye Yitong: Cut it out.

Rong Qi: They're the ones trying to drive a wedge between us. They get close to you because they want to use your abilities. They butter you up because they want your Star Boxes. They admire you because they want to win you over. I'm different. I only want what's best for you. Everything I have is yours. I can buy you rare crystal mines, a laboratory, anything...

Ye Yitong: I don't need it.

Rong Qi: Sob, sob. They're just jealous of me!

Rong Qi: You ask why I love him? I love how, even when talent leaves him far behind, he keeps going, works hard, and reaches ever higher, shining all the while. He's so dazzling, brighter than any gemstone.

Ye Yitong: You ask why I love him? He's noisy, argumentative, and jealous, but... his eyes only ever linger on me. Whether I'm down on my luck or failing, he's been by my side from beginning to end...
