The Laid-Back Big Shot Keeps Pretending to Be a Female Insect [Insectoid]

Apocalypse veteran Mu An transmigrates into the body of a newly hatched male Insectoid, only to be told that he's actually an intersex Insectoid. After checking every possible source, Mu An becomes firmly convinced that this is true.

After living among the Insectoids for twenty years, Mu An reaches his awakening period. To ensure his second awakening is safe, the delicate, frail "intersex Insectoid" Mu An joins the Third Legion's postwar review department, where he unexpectedly falls for a female Insectoid.

Female Insectoids have three great qualities: they're tall, long-legged, and have abs. Mu An's bold heart starts pounding, and he resolves to win the female Insectoid over.

But an intersex Insectoid trying to court a female Insectoid is no easy feat...

From then on, the Insectoids of the Third Legion keep seeing their aloof major general accompanied by an "intersex Insectoid" with a male Insectoid's face.

The whole legion scoffs. How could an intersex Insectoid compare to a male Insectoid?

Only female Insectoids who can't find a male Insectoid would be willing to get together with an intersex one. There's no way their major general would ever fall for such a frail "intersex Insectoid."

Then one day, the major general faints on the battlefield, and word spreads that he's carrying an egg. In less than half a day, the "intersex Insectoid" is there on the battlefield, all the way from the Insectoid homeworld.

The Insectoids watch as the usually laid-back "intersex Insectoid" excitedly pins the major general against the wall. With red-rimmed eyes, he demands, "It's not like I can't provide for you. What do you mean, going to the battlefield with my egg?"

"The battlefield is so dangerous. What am I supposed to do if something happens to you?"

Every Insectoid: Have we just stumbled across some earth-shattering gossip...?

Nuo Xiayuan thought he'd spend his whole life alone. He never expected to meet a little intersex Insectoid during a routine report, and have that little Insectoid passionately pursue him from the moment they met.

His hard heart gradually softens, until all he can hear is the little intersex Insectoid's gentle voice.

Nuo Xiayuan thinks he must have fallen for this little intersex Insectoid too.

Then, two months later, he looks at his growing belly, and his stern face finally cracks.

Can an intersex Insectoid and a female Insectoid really lay an egg?

Is the Insectoid world about to turn upside down?

[This is an entirely fictional setting and has nothing to do with reality. Please don't apply it to real life.]

Coming next: The Protagonist in My Story [Insectoid]. An author transmigrates into his own book and tries to redeem his half-corrupted protagonist, but ends up overdoing it.

Synopsis: Wen Qi first sees Gu Nan with his own eyes at an auction.

On the auction stage, Gu Nan is bound high up, his toes barely touching the ground. Bright red blood drips onto the platform, and several deep cuts, nearly all the way through, mar the pair of bone wings Wen Qi likes most.

In a daze, Wen Qi meets those emerald eyes.

A precious gem covered in dust, no longer free-spirited. Those eyes are as still as a pool of dead water, nothing like the proud, confident domain lord he wrote.

His free-spirited protagonist has been tormented like this by a task-taker from another world.

Wen Qi, newly transmigrated, grits his teeth and puts up all his savings.

That day at the auction, every Insectoid hears an exceedingly gentle voice ask, "Would you like to come home with me?"

Saving Gu Nan is simply an impulse of the heart. Wen Qi only wants Gu Nan to return to a normal life. Fighting and killing are not what he wants.

He just hopes he can nurse this battered Insectoid back to health, and then a little more, until he restores his former pride and confidence.

As for what else he has to do... He'll take care of that task-taker along the way and restore the world to its original order. Then he can retire from the job and return to his own world.

Wen Qi holds on to this idea until the day the task-taker dies. The proud, handsome female Insectoid presents him with the crown of the Insectoid Emperor and kneels before him, his defenses lowered and his voice utterly humble. "I will be your guardian, your blade. Please, don't abandon me."

Wen Qi, who has just agreed with the System on his departure date: "..." What?

For the first half of his life, Gu Nan dreams of living like a normal female Insectoid. After a sudden fall from grace, dark thoughts gradually take over his mind. From then on, his dream is to trample those arrogant, conceited male Insectoids underfoot and make them submit.

The day he learns that Wen Qi is about to leave, his dream changes. Now, he wants to do whatever it takes to keep the Insectoid who gave him warmth when he was at his lowest.

"Wen Qi, if you dare to leave, I'll make this world pay for your departure."

Little scene:

One day, a newly appointed minister watches the emperor hurry away after a meeting and sighs. "His Majesty's workday must be so exhausting."

An old hand among the ministers gives him a sympathetic look. "Busy getting jealous, throwing his weight around because he's doted on, threatening to use us to get his empress back... How could it not be exhausting?"

The new minister: "..."

[Proud and confident, breathtakingly beautiful, responsible, mischievous male Insectoid seme, the Insectoid Empress.]

[Half-corrupted, stunningly handsome, insecure, naturally born leader and Insectoid Emperor uke, jealous every day.]
