The Male Insectoid Cub Refuses to Be a Burden

[Pre-release: The Cannon Fodder Male Insect Is Actually Me (Transmigrated into a Book)] - Blurb - Three-and-a-half-year-old Milo has lived on a garbage planet his whole life, often going ten meals hungry and then eating his fill once. One day, he is suddenly told that he is actually a male insect hatchling from the insect royal family, and that all four of his older female-insect brothers are powerful figures across the stars whom no one dares to offend. His eldest brother, the Insect Emperor, is cold and aloof, a famously iron-fisted ruler across the stars. His subordinates barely dare breathe in his presence. His second brother is wealthier than entire nations and has held the title of the richest man in the stars for years. His third brother is a gloomy, obsessive researcher with extraordinary intelligence, a renowned genius across the stars. His fourth brother is a hot-tempered legion commander known as the Silver-Haired Demon for his immense destructive power. When they learn of little Milo's existence, his four brothers respond in perfect unison. The Insect Emperor: "The palace is dull and boring. It's no place for a hatchling." The second brother: "I'll pay for his upbringing. Don't bother me about anything else." The third brother: "I won't waste my life on anything besides experiments." The fourth brother: "How about... I get my adjutant to raise him?" Later, at Milo's birthday party, he boasts to his friends in his little-kid voice, "My brothers are the best brothers in the whole world!" A nosy insect asks, "Then which brother do you like best?" All four big-shot brothers instantly fix their eyes on Milo. Milo: "..." Milo's female-parent fans and male-parent fans: Poor little prince. He's so young, and already has to deal with the challenge of pleasing everyone. And he has to balance four bowls at once! * None of Milo's four big-shot brothers dare let him know how badly they reacted when they first learned of his existence. But you can't keep a lid on things forever! After learning how his brothers had initially felt about him, little Milo leaves a note before running away from home: "Thank you, brothers, for taking care of me, your little burden, all this time. You don't have to force yourselves anymore." His four big-shot brothers: "...Help! Can we transmigrate back in time and poison that stupid version of ourselves into silence before it's too late??" -- Pre-release: The Cannon Fodder Male Insect Is Actually Me (Transmigrated into a Book) The moment Ning Ruosi awakens to the truth, he realizes that this S-rank male insect is actually a cannon-fodder villain in a novel. The novel's male lead, who is supposedly an F-rank male insect, is in reality a human who accidentally transmigrated. For the sake of the male lead, Ning Ruosi's fiance will eventually break off their engagement. And after being dumped, Ning Ruosi shows no awareness that he's cannon fodder. He keeps pestering his fiance until he makes himself the most hated person on the internet. Now free from the plot's control, Ning Ruosi coolly watches his fiance and the male lead arrive hand in hand to break off the engagement, then turns around and livestreams the breakup. His fiance says with baffling confidence, "I'm sorry for what I did, but I hope you can take it in stride." The male lead gazes at Ning Ruosi pitifully. "You don't love him anyway. Why insist on holding on to him?" Ning Ruosi smiles faintly. "A trashy insect belongs with a dog. I wish you two a lifetime of happiness." The female insects in the livestream chat: "Hey, husband! I'm here!!" Later, no one expects Ning Ruosi's former fiance to regret breaking off their engagement. After he and the male lead tear into each other so publicly that the whole internet knows about it, and become bitter enemies, he tries to win Ning Ruosi back. But Yixifa, his vicious superior in the military, pins him to the ground and beats him senseless. Yixifa smiles, but his voice drips with murderous fury. "Hold on to your place in line like a good boy. I've been waiting this long and still haven't won Ning Ruosi over, and you dare cut in?!" Ning Ruosi gently pats Yixifa on the head, exasperated. "How many times have I told you? Mind your language. Stop calling yourself 'this old man.'" "I-I was just mad, okay?" Yixifa looks utterly aggrieved, instantly meek as a little lamb. You'd never guess that moments ago he was as violent as a ferocious beast. -- Inspiration timestamp screenshot: April 1, 2022. I like to keep records of creative details. Content notes: 1.
