As the very, very best NPC among all the staff working in quick transmigration worlds, Z's wish is to retire, randomly hop into a world, lie flat and enjoy a carefree life, then calmly accept being formatted at the end. She doesn't want to help the protagonists get together, contribute to their careers, or throw herself into danger at critical moments anymore!
After the Lord God granted her retirement wish, Z opened her eyes: Huh, apart from the unfamiliar world setting, everything else seems fine.
She, Jiang Zhu, was an orphan, the only bird-person who hadn't yet beastified, a useless burden who couldn't lift a hand or carry anything and had to rely on the tribe to feed her. Jiang Zhu: "Great! Since I'm here, I'll lie flat."
After she kindly warned the beastfolk who had gone hunting to come back early because rain was coming, and her prediction came true, the old chief looked at Jiang Zhu differently. Remembering the shaman's prophecy, he overruled the opposition and chose Jiang Zhu as the new shaman.
Jiang Zhu: "QAQ I should have kept my mouth shut!"
But on the very day after she became shaman, the tribe was attacked. The people were surrounded, and as casualties mounted, Jiang Zhu, unwilling to have lain flat for less than half a month, led the tribe's survivors in a flight. They managed to escape, but at a terrible cost. Looking at the thirteen tribespeople left and the old chief who had died protecting her...
Jiang Zhu: "My fate is no longer mine to choose. I'm going to be the protagonist of this world."
Clearing land, raising livestock, weaving cloth, making pottery... She did everything she could to help the tribe flourish, and before she knew it, she had built the largest tribe in the world.
Jiang Zhu: Being the protagonist is exhausting. When can I retire???
