[Coming next: The Mage and the Zombie King Get a Happy Ending, a sweet story with the protagonist as seme. Feel free to add it to your reading list.]
[The author's writing is rough, the plot is a mess, and updates are irregular (important). Read at your own risk.]
[Blurb below]
Andi died in the apocalypse and ended up in the interstellar era, in a different species' body. He became a useless male insect who was bad at everything and excelled only at eating and waiting to die.
Great. The retired old general thought this would be perfect for a quiet retirement.
That was until he came face-to-face with the insect race's marriage system. Andi had no love cells to speak of and just wanted to hold out until the last day before he was forcibly made to marry a female. He never expected to come home, open the door, and find himself a female attendant.
The normally strict and cool-headed Major General Noah clung to him without expression. "Male Lord..."
Andi: "..."
Dear country, can I return the boyfriend you assigned me? I'll even pay the postage myself.
Grateful to Noah for saving him from a star beast's jaws when he first arrived, Andi let the poor, well-behaved female insect stay for a while and tried to find a way to get Noah back to the military.
But even after Andi had exhausted every idea, Noah was still comfortably settled in his position as Andi's female attendant, keeping a low profile and making himself practically invisible.
Andi: "???"
Noah looked at him apologetically. "I don't want to be a female lord, and I don't want to go back to the military."
Andi wore the disguise of a useless D-rank, but had S-rank mental power. He quietly observed what his female attendant was up to, only to discover that Noah didn't care about him at all. The only people Noah cared about were high-ranking noble male insects.
Major General Noah had excellent counter-surveillance skills and soon realized his cover was blown. He immediately chose to threaten Andi. "Either work with me or go feed the star beasts."
Andi raised his hand to surrender. "Okay, okay. What do I need to do?"
"About opposing the empire and feudalism..."
What do you do when you accidentally board a villainous insect's pirate ship?
Never mind. There's no getting off. It's a spaceship.

The Mage and the Zombie King Get a Happy Ending
Feng Xiye was just an ordinary top student at the West Sea Holy Magic Academy, majoring in time and light. He never imagined he would transmigrate into the "ancient past" and witness history.
Oh, right. This was during the apocalypse. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth had just begun to be used by humans, and people who had learned the basics of magic were called "superpowered individuals." This new system brought all kinds of conflict and chaos, and the world was in ruins, waiting to be rebuilt.
It was also the era when dark energy was at its strongest. Countless people became neither living nor dead after being infected, turning into "zombies." Superpowered individuals formed groups, while dark magic users had yet to be wiped out.
Feng Xiye latched onto the young man who was on the verge of becoming a zombie and refused to let go.
His light magic could save him! Who knew how hard it was to find a dark magic user suitable for dual cultivation!
After being bitten by a zombie, Li Xi was disheartened and moved out of his home, planning to wait for death outside. But day after day, he neither turned into a zombie nor died from the infection. Having given up, Li Xi took to collecting all sorts of strange things. First he picked up a little black dog and a little girl, then a frail, pale silver-haired young man curled up in a cloak.
Li Xi thought the silver-haired guy was dangerous, but his extreme pretty-boy obsession kept him from controlling his hands. Whatever, he was going to die anyway. He might as well bring him home to feast his eyes on.
Later, countless people asked him:
"Have you seen a handsome young man with silver hair and blue clothes?"
"He's very important! He's the hope of eradicating the zombies!"
Li Xi, the Zombie King, replied calmly, "Never seen him."
After all, Feng Xiye's hair was always switching colors at random, except for green.
* One-on-one, both leads' first relationship, protagonist as seme. A hugely powerful mage with a three-ton idol-burden x a sweet and resilient Zombie King as uke. Feng Xiye x Li Xi.
* The whole setting is made up. The author doesn't know much about magic systems and is only borrowing the name, so please don't scrutinize the details too closely.
Theme: Sincerity can move even the hardest heart.
Tie~, the character settings are all very good, especially Noah, who is finally not a cookie-cutter loyal dog. Looking forward to the follow-up (?˙ー˙?)
I thought I was pulling the lantern: they were carrying me to the flower market for their honeymoon. The wife's lamp puller: Being soothed and hypnotized by spiritual power is true. Turn off the lights and sleep
Come on, if you're busy, I'll update it
It's great that a medical student can type so many words with such a tight schedule. I haven't touched a single word of the novel I want to write. In fact, I can directly read this one.
I hope it will be updated soon. If it is suspended, I don't know how long it will take.
Huh? ╭(°A°`)╮Turn on the light?
Hey, I have to come back to fill the hole.
I really like this setting. Qwq The author, please give me a boost. I can wait.
Come on, big daddy?(????ω??????)?
I don't know if I can wait for the update before sh is unblocked and released.
