Daily Survival of a Squirming Worm in a Sentinel-and-Guide World

A righteous, level-headed, overpowered heroine (Sentinel) x a ruthless, poisonous, ultra-dark male lead (Sentinel). In short: Sentinel and Guide, extremely liberal personal worldbuilding, and a daily routine of tormenting the Empress of Affection. √ *This clumsy author updates whenever a chapter is finished.* *If something comes up, I'll put a loudspeaker announcement in the blurb.* The blurb I am absolutely serious about: Two thousand years ago, humanity had long since left its homeworld. A powerful Guide paired with a powerful Sentinel could become a mobile space fortress. Two thousand years later, humanity had retreated to its homeworld and struggled to survive, relying on the glorious Sentinel-Guide civilization of the past. To gain residency in the heavens and become a mighty Element Sentinel, countless surface-dwellers plunged into mortal danger, wagering their meager lives on a chance at a future with infinite possibilities. [Consume the darkness, evolve in glory.] That was the dream etched into the bones of all humanity. Yu Qing transmigrated into this last era of an interstellar civilization. She easily took over the body of a monster born in an underground cavern and somehow became what they called an Element Sentinel. No starships or mechs was a minor inconvenience. Even being stripped of her human status was something she could endure... No, no, no, she couldn't endure this. There was something seriously wrong with this body... How was she supposed to get close to all those beautiful Guides now, for goodness' sake! The author's made-up nonsense blurb: As a veteran transmigrator who has lived through countless lives, Yu Qing had long mastered the art of waking up reborn in a latrine and still smiling as she said, "This is great!" But waking up inside a monster whose head was full of nothing but lewd thoughts was a first. She thought for half a second and decided to confiscate the monster's implements of mischief. But she never expected that its lewd side would live on inside her. Listen, little thing, your Empress of Affection has no Guide, but she's still the best in the universe. You think you can get the better of her? The blurb for longtime readers who can fill in the gaps: Empress of Affection: Well, look at that! The heavens finally came through! I'm a Sentinel! Heavens: Well, look at that! But you've got no Guide to cuddle up with, you wriggling thing! Croak! A sincere content warning and a few words from the author: 1. Both leads are non-binary! (If you can't accept that, please, please don't click in. The author is on her knees begging you.) 2. The heroine has already been through many worlds. She's extremely level-headed, an old pervert who loves beautiful people and can be sleazy and shameless. She's seen it all, but she's a good person (repeat). She's not a self-sacrificing saint (and that's a good thing). 3. The male lead is chaotic neutral, leaning evil: a beautiful, twisted, bewitching monster who's entirely true to himself. 4. The story has almost no omniscient perspective and mostly follows the heroine. If you don't understand the setting right away, it won't matter, since the heroine is new to it too and is still figuring things out. Some setting details and explanations will appear in the author's notes as needed. 5. This belongs to the Empress of Affection series, but can be read on its own. It takes place before the ABO arc (see the author's profile). There are some connections, but not many, and may involve unraveling the transmigration mystery. While waiting for updates, enjoy them together for twice the fun. 6. This is a homemade meal made just to satisfy the author's wildest fantasies _(:з)∠)_. Please read points 1, 2, 3, and 4 carefully before diving in. If it's not for you, leave quickly. 7. The author is fragile, busy with work, and has limited time. She's clumsy and lazy, and writes purely for fun. Her cute readers are the only ones keeping her on track... If the story starts stampeding like ten thousand horses, feel free to leave a negative review, but please don't make personal attacks. The author gets heartbroken easily and might run away. Thank you. *Copyright belongs to Jinjiang. Reposting is prohibited.* Theme: Be a good person and do good things.
