[New story now available: The Male Lord's Repayment in the Insect World] When Albe was young, he was accidentally trapped in a war-torn city. A military female insect appeared out of nowhere and saved him in his time of need. Afterward, the military female insect stayed by his side, gently holding and comforting him whenever he was afraid. But after Albe was taken to a safe zone, he woke up from a nap to find the military female insect gone. He never heard from him again, and was never given the chance to repay his kindness. Albe returned to his comfortable life as an honored male insect. What's more, after this accident, his mental power skyrocketed from D-rank to S-rank, making him a rare and prestigious male insect in insect society and leaving everyone stunned. But for years, he suffered from postwar trauma. Without the military female insect by his side, he couldn't sleep at night. The lack of sleep left him with unbearable headaches and made him gloomy and irritable. Then a small family sent him a male slave to curry favor with him. The slave was said to have been on the verge of becoming a major general in the military. By rights, he should have outranked Albe, yet now he obediently knelt at Albe's feet, his once-straight back bent low. Angry at the slave for throwing his life away, Albe lifted his chin in disgust, only to discover a face so familiar he knew it by heart, a face he'd missed every day. After years of searching everywhere for the insect who had saved him and finding nothing, he unexpectedly reunited with the military female insect who had left without a word, in circumstances like these. Yuleiya had believed he was doomed to fall into the abyss, beyond all hope of salvation. Just then, at the moment of utter despair when all hope was gone, he was suddenly saved.
