Yu Shen transmigrates into an apocalyptic interstellar world, surviving by scavenging in the blizzards.
He thought that was all life had in store for him, but then he found a strange egg.
The shell cracked, and a little bug hatched from it, calling him Mom.
"..."
Yu Shen nearly cracked on the spot, too.
With a blizzard raging overhead, he had no time to raise a bug as his kid. He turned and left.
But the larva kept following him, never leaving his side. Even when it stumbled along, it still insisted on staying close.
"Mom, Mommy..."
"Get lost!"
Yu Shen had no choice but to turn back. He took a deep breath. "Don't call me Mom!"
Well, raising one more meant one more mouth to feed.
He could always scavenge more trash.

Nobody knew that the adorable little one hiding behind the handsome young man had a terrifyingly enormous, pitch-black true form.
Bounty hunters, afraid of the horrifying presence behind him, willingly backed off.
The other scavengers watched him pick up trash, but didn't dare move.
The young man claimed all the trash in the area, hauling it home in bundles, yet no one dared rob him.
The culprit behind it all was behind the young man, happily acting cute and demanding kisses.
Its least favorite thing was when Mom picked up one, two, three, four more larvae to be its little brothers, then told it to get along with them.

Just when he had finally found his footing on the garbage planet, a storm swept across the entire region. Yu Shen transmigrated again, this time to two hundred years in the future.
His once-frail little ones had transformed into powerful, composed leaders of the insect race.
They held lofty positions and wielded great power.
The portrait of the extinct Insect Mother in insect textbooks looked exactly like Yu Shen.
The insects loved his lingering scent, the color of his eyes, and his voice.
They called him the "Supreme Insect Mother," but only a sufficiently powerful leader could earn the warmth of his fingertips as a reward.
Yu Shen: ???
Who knew you could scavenge your way into becoming the Insect Mother!
