After ten years in the apocalypse, Lin Ye perished along with the source of the alien species. After transmigrating into a book, he became a famously fragile, useless old human in the interstellar era.
System: Host, pull yourself together at once! Our mission is to save the world!
Lin Ye lazily flicked his tail: No.
He could pet giant cats, pilot mechs, and tease the System until it crashed. The former strongest human was perfectly content with his lazy life.
Unfortunately, after only ten years of bliss, his adoptive father had had enough and packed him off to military school.

Military school was packed with big shots. When his classmates asked about him, Lin Ye replied earnestly, "My family lives in a remote star system. We get by scavenging junk and repairing machines, and I have to work hard to earn fish treats to feed our lordly cat..."
Oh, a last-place student admitted through a special program for remote star systems.
His classmates believed him... and got played.
In the year 1525 of the Star Calendar, with the Zerg watching hungrily from beyond and the alien species making a comeback within, humanity once again faced the threat of extinction. Then, among the "old humans abandoned by the times," a dazzling miracle appeared.
With a gleaming silver scythe on his shoulder, he piloted a super-S mech and carved a sliver of hope for all humanity in crimson light.
Behind him trailed a crowd of followers and a whole host of big shots. Even the cold-faced God of War, hailed as a war machine, knelt on one knee and bowed to him in submission.
People took a closer look and realized it was none other than the famous layabout at military school.
Classmates: You never told us your remote star system was a legion base, that you repaired super-S mechs, or that your lordly cat was the legion commander!
Lin Ye: You never asked. ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Lin Ye had planned to stay a lazy fish forever.
But after casually crushing a few alien creatures, the puppy-like protagonist from the original book pitifully begged to call him Master.
At the military school's competition, he went looking for a quiet corner to catch up on sleep. He casually picked up a fat bird with a broken leg to make a snack of it, only to find it was the young prince of the neighboring empire, who had been ambushed.
Even the strongest student in the school, the original novel's aloof, cold-hearted protagonist's beloved, hailed as a war machine, showed up with shining dragon horns and a tail to offer himself to Lin Ye for the night?!
Looking at the dragon tail winding restlessly around his waist and the gaggle of jealous little brats behind him, the young man stood amid the barren ruins of the postwar wasteland. After a thrilling slaughter, his brows curved, a hint of color returning to his pale face as he gave a wicked smile.
"I've got a plan to retire by running a zoo. Want to hear it?"
"N-no, I think we're good."
The little animals warily stepped back, but the owner of the dragon tail moved closer instead. He lowered his head and placed his most vulnerable dragon horns into the young man's palm, then gazed up at him with shining eyes, asking for a kiss.
"Kiss me, and I'll be your star attraction."
"Get lost."
A ridiculously powerful, do-as-he-pleases lazy fish Bottom x a cold beauty Top with a split personality who only acts that way around his beloved
1. My own take on the interstellar genre, with plenty of original worldbuilding.
2. Both the Top and Bottom are a little crazy.
3. I haven't figured this out yet, but I'm leaving it in.
Theme: As long as humanity's flame endures, we will face danger with composure and fight side by side.
