An Omega born into the imperial family of the Federation Empire has only one path in life: to be sent off as a pretty little gift in a political marriage to a noble family with a powerful military.
Unfortunately, Chu Wenxuan was born an Omega in the imperial family.
But luckily, a little mishap on the way to his wedding let him escape from the Empire's home planet and flee to a desolate place of exile.
The good news was that he wouldn't have to marry that sadistic, brutal Alpha who was over fifty.
The bad news was that he landed headfirst on a prison planet.
Chu Wenxuan plunged face-first into the scorching sand on the prison planet's surface. He heard a carefree woman's voice teasingly appraise his figure.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. With arms and legs that skinny, you wouldn't even make a decent meal for me."
Chu Wenxuan's little face went deathly pale. He struggled to pull it out of the sand, desperate to make her understand that he wasn't at all appetizing.
Yet the dangerous, beautiful female Alpha gazed at him in a way that sent a chill down his spine. After a moment, she licked her crimson lips and praised him with an ambiguous smile. "You look delicious."
The good news was that the female Alpha named Yao Heng wasn't some feral man-eating monster. She just wanted to scare this rabbit-like little Omega.
The bad news was that Chu Wenxuan really was scared. Her rich pheromones enveloped his slender body. A damp flush slowly spread across the corners of his eyes, and his gaze shimmered like spring water. At a loss, Chu Wenxuan could only grab the cold exoskeleton of Yao Heng's mech armor and beg in a small voice,
"Please help me."
His heat had arrived early.
The kindhearted Alpha helped him through his immediate predicament, then naturally tossed him a stack of bills.
Medical expenses, lost wages, emotional damages, temporary marking fees, mech armor removal and dressing fees, surface sand damage, air purification, water contamination...
Looking at the endless list of charges and the astronomical debt he'd racked up, Chu Wenxuan finally remembered the familiar name, "Yao Heng."
The interstellar pirate who rampaged across the stars, killing and burning countless lives, and struck fear even into the Empire's Marshal.
Penniless, Chu Wenxuan had no choice but to sell himself to pay off his debt. The penny-pinching Pirate Queen kicked him off to work as a laborer at a school on the prison planet.
Education in the interstellar age was efficient and convenient. Each person's path in life was determined by their bloodline at birth: the strong stayed strong, and the weak stayed weak.
The fair and impartial AIs taught every Alpha to defend the nation and every Omega to manage a household. They pruned away every offshoot and every diverging path in good time. Everyone was a screw cast from the same mold, devoting their whole lives to their assigned posts without complaint. Thanks to the Empire's efficient education system and the standard humans it produced, the Empire's rule had endured for three hundred years.
It wasn't until the bloodthirsty, brutal pirate Yao Heng brought Chu Wenxuan, the once meek and easily bullied runaway prince, along to blast open the barrier of light above the dome that people learned a short, insignificant human life could be lived with such dazzling brilliance and color.
Ever since she could remember, Yao Heng had despised the identical people of the Empire. They were dull and boring, timid and weak, and could only let the imperial family drive them like mules.
She thought the Empire's rulers, so secure and carefree, could use a little trouble.
Then she found a robot numbered 333 on a distant, lost planet, and decided it was time to establish a school devoted to making trouble.
Yao Heng's educational philosophy: rob and plunder to fund education.
After all, no matter how hard life gets, children shouldn't suffer; no matter how poor you are, education shouldn't be neglected.
But it was time for those high-and-mighty nobles to endure some hardship and poverty.
Dangerous but dependable troublemaker female Alpha x freedom-loving, delicate male Omega
P.S. 1. It's female Alpha and male Omega! Also, in my personal worldbuilding, female Alphas are the strongest.
2. I made up all the stuff about putting the educational philosophy into practice, so just have fun reading and don't take it seriously, orz.
3. The heroine really does rob people.
