A Little Useless Insect's Survival Guide

(My new novel, The Wolf King Crosses My Path, is looking for readers... A beautiful, chaotic wolf gong × a laid-back, powerful shou who spoils his husband. Stop by and see if the blurb suits your taste!) [Sunny, theatrical male insect × sharp-tongued, iron-blooded female insect war god] Wan Sen had just transmigrated and opened his eyes when his newlywed female lord stabbed him with a claw and sent him straight to the hospital. Wan Sen: Thanks. I nearly died the moment I arrived. Could he report her? No. The culprit was a mighty imperial general with power to spare. Crushing a useless little nobody like him would be child's play. And right now, this vicious woman was looking him over like a piece of merchandise! Imperial General De Wenxin: You should be grateful you look decent. Behave yourself, and I'll treat you well. Wan Sen, pretending to be meek: Nods like a chick pecking at rice.jpg De Wenxin: Satisfied.jpg The new world was a tangled web of factions, with conflicts as treacherous and unpredictable as the waves. As Wan Sen struggled to survive in this strange world and searched for any companions who might have transmigrated with him, he was drawn into a world-shaking conspiracy without even realizing it. Surviving in another world was no easy feat. Cunning natives ahead, treacherous kin behind... What was he to do? --Put on an act. His position was awkward and life was hard. Selling himself wasn't enough; he also had to play music and put on a show for money. Who knew that his musical talent would turn out to be a unique skill for soothing the insect race's mental sea? Before he knew it, he had become a famous insect across the stars! The insect people treated him like a god, and the powerful saw him as a treasure. They all came for him! The Emperor: I'll make you a noble! The Planetary Union Council: I'll make you the supreme ruler of the stars! A certain underground city's overlord: I want you to be king! His rightful female lord spread and folded her wings around him. Who dares steal my treasure? ** Imperial General De Wenxin had earned countless military honors, only to be saddled with a useless, foolish male insect. She hadn't even gotten a good look at his face before he nearly died beneath her claws. Fortunately, the male insect was lucky enough to survive. De Wenxin hadn't expected this male insect to be both good-looking and gifted with extraordinary abilities. His feigned stupidity was downright cunning. Greedy for him, she decided: If you're acting, so am I. I'll trick you into coming home with me, one way or another. But one day, her plan backfired, and the prize in her hands escaped. De Wenxin: What if I fall in love with you all over again? I'll give you anything you want! Wan Sen: I've had enough of being lied to. I'm out of here. De Wenxin: Chasing.jpg And so, the general began her romantic campaign to win over the male insect. Sincere love was the only way to clear this route. (Stalker stats loading...) A certain general's diary: He smiled at me three times today. That's progress. Keep it up! * [Reader's Guide] 1. They're each other's first love. The shou is the strongest fighter around, and there's a gong-pursuit arc starting in Volume Three. 2. If you're afraid of insects, proceed with caution. There are descriptions of feelers, wings, and the like. 3. This is the author's first novel, and it's a little long. Consider buying chapter by chapter in case you lose interest along the way. (Special emphasis: The military holds great power in this world. The shou is not submissive; he's fierce, powerful, scheming, possessive, jealous, sharp-tongued, and sarcastic. The gong is theatrical and loves pretending to be meek. He's a healer, not a weak gong. If you're very particular about character roles, please take note.) 4. Important: The worldbuilding differs from other insect-race novels. It includes equality for both sexes, and freedom above all! [One more point not mentioned in the blurb, but which might be a dealbreaker: Although the overall story is based on a person transmigrating into an insect, the gong, Wan Sen, is not human. He's actually a native insect who believes he has “transmigrated.” I'll leave the rest of the mystery surrounding his identity unspoiled~] *This is a fictional setting created solely to serve the plot. It has nothing to do with reality, so please don't apply real-world values to it. If all that sounds good, then join Sen Sen for a thrilling (survival) adventure in the insect world~ Cover art by the author. Gong on the left, shou on the right~ The author is a compulsive reviser and loves proofreading, so feel free to ignore updates to old chapters~~ ---------Coming Next--------- The Evil God, Please Stop Pretending to Be an Omega, starts April 15, 2024. Come follow me~ [Black-bellied-then-innocent, pure and alluring Fei God gong × theatrical, multiple-personality evil god shou] (*Alpha gong × Enigma shou) Xia Feizhe was reborn. His sole mission was to kill the evil god who would destroy the world. But... why had this evil god, wearing an Alpha's skin, suddenly started pretending to be an Omega? Not only did he pretend to be an Omega, he pretended to trust him, love him, and dote on him. He acted so sincerely, so movingly, that Xia Feizhe would almost have believed him if he hadn't known the guy wasn't human. Well... he believed him anyway. No matter what, stopping the evil god from descending was Xia Feizhe's most important mission. Falling in love to stop the evil god's apocalypse still counted as stopping him. The result was what mattered. But... there seemed to be something wrong with this evil god. He flipped the sacrificial altar over, saying it would make him late for their date. He wiped out his fanatical, crazed followers, calling them a bunch of worthless eyesores. He even said he wanted to focus on their romance and stay together forever. Not only that, he turned into a strange, one-eyed ball of fluff and wriggled around everywhere, making a fuss in Xia Feizhe's head and begging to cuddle. In the end, he even “split” apart! Several personalities fought over him, and it was quite a spectacle. Personality 1: Darling, only I can give you the sweetest love. I'll eat those thieves and hypocrites! Personality 2: A-Zhe, I'm your eternal guardian. Let me stay by your side every second. Personality 3: Guoguo, wait until I recover my memories. I'll cure this mental... psychological illness! Personality 4: Xia Feizhe, I won't allow my man to have anyone else in his heart! Xia Feizhe: ...You're all the same person. I don't have anyone else! Unsolved mysteries from his past life came tumbling back. Humanity had created the supreme “Fei God.” With his supreme mental power, Fei God created an iron cage and locked his prey inside for all eternity. The eldritch god from another dimension would never escape again. And he would mark the prey who belonged to him. And then... Xia Feizhe, incredulous: I've been marked? A certain biting evil god licked his lips and put on a wounded look. Darling, I don't know anything. *This is a melodramatic, offbeat romance where the gong thinks he's in an Alpha-Omega relationship, the shou thinks he's in an Alpha-Alpha relationship, everyone else thinks they're in an Alpha-Beta relationship, but they're actually in an Alpha-Enigma relationship. [The gong is an Alpha throughout. The shou doesn't know he's an Enigma for a long time, but instinctively wants to possess and mark (bite the neck of) the gong.] ----------Other Upcoming Novels---------- 1.
