Fishing for Leisure on a Galactic Livestream

Yu Xingyuan, a marine biologist, transmigrated to an interstellar world. His new identity came with an illustrious family background, and he was even the Crown Prince's fiance.

However, on his very first day, tests revealed that his spirit form was abnormal, and he was promptly dumped.

Ministry of Internal Affairs: We're sorry, Mr. Yu. Your spirit form is an unknown animal that may be highly aggressive, so you don't meet the standards for the future empress of the royal family.

Looking at the spirit form he had released, Yu Xingyuan fell into deep thought.

I'm clearly an otter from the subfamily Lutrinae of the family Mustelidae in the order Carnivora, okay?

As compensation, the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave him the deed to an undeveloped border asteroid.

Seeing the planetary deed's details, "70.8% ocean coverage, extensive mudflats and benthic organisms," and comparing them with the Imperial Capital planet, where supermarkets and restaurants sold only nutrient fluid, Yu Xingyuan immediately decided to move.

The year's most explosive news across the AQUA System: The Empire's Crown Princess and the Crown Prince have ended their engagement!

Rumor has it the Crown Princess, devastated by heartbreak, fled to a barren planet on the border of the AQUA System to escape the world.

Before long, a livestream suddenly went viral on the Star Network. The streamer went fishing and catching crabs every day, having the time of his life.

Best of all, while fishing, the streamer taught viewers about marine animals and even showed them how to cook.

Streamer [ID: The Otter Is a Little Hungry]: Hey, guys, these are oysters I just picked up in the sea today. High-end ingredients often need only the simplest preparation... (He raised a shell and smashed it against a rock several times, then dipped it in wasabi.) Slurp.

AQUA people, who had been drinking nutrient fluid for thousands of years: This is incredible! So delicious!

After the Empire's Crown Prince was injured, his mental powers went berserk. Before losing consciousness, he broke off his engagement to the fiancee he'd never met and went alone to a border planet, where he fell asleep on the seafloor to recuperate.

That very day, a cheerful young man's voice broke into his chaotic mindscape:

Hey, guys, what a huge giant clam! Giant clams are precious benthic organisms that can only survive in tidal zones with exceptionally clean water. Their pearls are precious organic gemstones! Let's take a look! Knock, knock, knock!

The Empire's people watching the livestream: Huh? Why does that giant clam look so much like His Highness the Crown Prince's spirit form?

The heir to the throne, with SSS-level mental powers and hailed as the Empire's war machine, had always been used to locking himself inside his shell.

Until one day, an otter smashed its way through the door to his heart.
