Silan was one of the first-generation royal female insects. In ancient times, the insect race relied entirely on hand-to-hand combat and was utterly ferocious. The females were even more so than the males.
After dying in battle, he transmigrated to a world millions of years in the future.
In this world, enormous steel machines flew through the sky, and the insect race's territory had expanded countless times over. But female insects had vanished from this era. Only sub-females remained.
Sub-females, in Silan's eyes, were defective females with weak pheromones, poor stamina, and barely any combat ability.
The young sub-female he transmigrated into was an arrogant, unconventional young master. Though he had been politically betrothed and already had a husband in name, that hadn't stopped him from enrolling in military school alongside the man he loved, the son of an imperial first-rank duke, and doggedly pursuing him.
His pursuit ended in tragedy, so much so that he woke up with a completely different soul in his body.
The old ancestor Silan gazed upon this peaceful, prosperous world and happily settled in to do nothing. He had spent his whole life fighting for his people. It was time to take a break.
But not long after, the border was in crisis. The enemy had developed a weapon that could disrupt sub-females' pheromones.
Large numbers of male insects fell on the front lines, and even the scarce sub-females suffered heavy losses.
Silan Yate Military Academy, the oldest and most powerful military academy in the empire, immediately selected a group of its top students to head to the front.
But when the list of outstanding students was announced, everyone was stunned. Silan?
What kind of weirdo had slipped in? Had this lovesick fool seen that his crush was on the list and cheated on the exam just to follow him to the front?
Whatever. A useless waste like that would only get himself killed. Good riddance.
But not long afterward...
The Mother Insect's Heart, enshrined in the main city's holy temple and dead for millions of years, showed signs of a false awakening.
After their shock, everyone fell to their knees in worship.
Even a three-year-old baby insect knew that only a royal female insect, a being found solely in legend, could resonate with the Mother Insect's Heart by using a vast Empathic Field.
Thousands of miles away, Silan had just unleashed his Empathic Field. He kicked aside the male insect blocking his way, hoisted his long saber, and leaped off the airship.
His four wings spread behind him, slicing through the sky.
Too dangerous? You can't go?
What a joke. Back when I was tearing through the battlefield, charging in and out of the enemy's stronghold seven times, your great-great-great-grandparents hadn't even hatched yet!
Reading Guide:
1. The protagonist has an extremely cute appearance, but his combat ability is every bit as vicious as he is cute. He absolutely hates being called cute and has the heart of a tough guy.
2. Pheromones temper the body and harmonize the soul, so the protagonist will regain his ancient combat strength.
3. From universally hated to universally adored.
