The Insect Mother Still Wants to Be Human Today

Julian's ravenous hunger made him emit pheromones he couldn't even smell. Food... Food... Food... His body screamed for energy. The scent first swept across the entire planet of Yaston, then spread throughout the whole interstellar expanse. One after another, exquisite, cold faces lifted. They revealed their ghastly, sickle-shaped forelegs, as if gazing through the starlight at the main planet of Yates, billions of light-years away. Their creator, their protector, their ruler had arrived. Please note: 1. The story may contain Lovecraftian horror and gore. Read with caution. 2. The setting is inspired by animal life and features a hive-mother. This is an insect-mother story with a bottom protagonist. Please avoid it if that's not your thing. 3. The top has split selves (codename A and Edgardo) that eventually merge. However, genetically, they are one and the same insect, with no other insects involved. Please avoid it if that's not your thing. 4. There may be insect-specific themes such as childbirth and nursing. Please avoid it if that's not your thing. ****Upcoming story**** Upcoming 1: After Reading History, They Regretted It. Lovecraftian history When Xu Gou joined the Historical Transmigration Bureau, he thought it was a scam company. To his surprise, it was a bona fide government agency. On his first day, his supervisor said, "Great. Grab a radiation-proof suit and your equipment, then head through the transmigration gate." Xu Gou: ? His first stop was the Great Qin. The first unfortunate soul he ran into was Ying Zheng. After bumping into the First Emperor, Xu Gou was about to be killed as a bandit when the equipment he carried activated automatically at the critical moment [Fragmentary Scroll: ■■] 1. Skill One: Persuasion: Automatically activates when the Host's life is in danger. It draws all chosen ones within a fifty-li radius into the [Scripture Chamber] and initiates forced reading mode. Effect: Once everyone has finished reading, it automatically triggers a goodwill buff and forcibly adds the Host to their allied faction. 2. Skill Two: Locked As Xu Gou stood in a small room, bewilderedly facing the First Emperor, Meng Kuo, and the others, a cold voice rang out. "Forced reading mode activated. Everyone present must read Records of the Grand Historian. No one may leave their place until the chapter has been completed." "First reader, Xu Gou. Please begin, " At the cold voice's command, every ancient figure turned to look at Xu Gou. Under immense pressure, Xu Gou had no choice but to pick up the book. "Qin Shi Huang was the son of King Zhuangxiang of Qin. King Zhuangxiang was held hostage in Zhao by Qin. There he met Lady Zhao, a concubine of Lü Buwei. He was delighted with her and took her as his wife, and she gave birth to the First Emperor. He was born in Handan in the first month of the forty-eighth year of King Zhao of Qin. At birth, he was named Zheng and given the surname Zhao..." The more Xu Gou read, the more wrong it felt. He nervously looked up and saw the First Emperor watching him with an expressionless face. Xu Gou: ...Aaaah! Help! Could this skill really save his life? Wasn't it just hastening his death? He was reading Ying Zheng's biography right in front of him! The fragmentary scroll was Xu Gou's lifesaving tool. It made him die of embarrassment, but it also caused countless historical figures to suffer the same fate. It only took a few shameless leaps in personal growth for Xu Gou to go from despair to unflappable calm. But after using the fragmentary scroll to travel through ancient times and complete one mission after another for the Transmigration Bureau, Xu Gou began to investigate more deeply and discovered that so-called history was nothing but a false mask. And using the fragmentary scroll so many times came at a price. The madness that had once existed, the incomplete poems, the wordless final songs: every fragment of history concealed a twisted truth. He looked at an ancient painting, but he wasn't merely looking at a painting. He was watching a strange, distorted beauty walk toward him. He looked at the meteorite said to have fallen from beyond the heavens, but felt as though he could see the stars twisting as they sang... It seemed he had entered history, yet he had also entered a world of dazzling, grotesque madness. Warnings: 1. I wanted to read Lovecraftian historical fiction but couldn't find any, so I'm writing my own. It'll probably be a niche story, but I'll give it a try. 2. There will be different dynasties, but this is an alternate universe and will definitely differ from actual history. Lovecraftian horror, history, and reading: a grand mishmash of made-up nonsense. 3. Just think of the male lead as an investigator. It's Lovecraft, after all; you need one (. Theme: Don't eat strange things or say things carelessly.
