After an Eldritch Tentacle Monster Picks Up a Down-and-Out Insectoid

[Set in a fictional world unrelated to reality. Please don't read yourself into it.]

("After the Straight-Laced Honest Man Turned into a Little Mouse"~Please add it to your favorites~)

Nox, a pink and squishy tentacle monster, has only one goal in life: find a wife!

Just as he's devoting himself wholeheartedly to his search for a wife, he suddenly passes out. When he wakes up, he's become a male insect with a human form. His inherited memories tell him that the more tentacles he has, the more his wife will love him. Luckily, his eighteen tentacles haven't disappeared, so he's still irresistibly charming!

They say male insects with tentacles are especially popular. To stay faithful to his wife, Nox keeps his tentacles hidden tight, never letting another bug see them. Until one day, he meets a wretched, destitute female insect on the brink of death. By the time he comes to his senses, his tentacles have already slipped onto the poor thing, shamelessly snuggling up. Oh, great Tentacle God, it was love at first sight! This is my wife!

Drovill has lived for twenty-eight years and never expected anything from male insects. They're conceited and foolish, arrogant and weak, yet they hold the power of life and death over female insects. They broke his pride, tore away his claws, and then threw him away like trash.

When he is bound once again by a male insect's mental tentacles, Drovill decides to accept his final fate…

[Short skit]

"You should give me Stockholm syndrome, whip me hard, then make me swear I'll love you forever and never betray you! You need to be a good wife!" Nox clings tightly to him, looks up, and gazes at him with wise eyes.

"…That's Stockholm syndrome." He rubs his throbbing temple. It seems that educating male insects is an urgent matter…

Here's a preview of my upcoming book, What Should I Do After Turning into a Little Rabbit and Falling into Another World?

Yin Mi, an utterly ordinary person with maxed-out cooking skills, transmigrates to another world.

He turns into a rabbit beastman with rabbit ears!

Fortunately, to make it up to him, the transmigration god gives him a little pocket space that refreshes with different ingredients.

And he was already good-looking in his previous life, but in this life he's an upgraded version, with ears the color of caramel cream pudding.

He looks at the carrots in the space and pulls one out for a bite.

Well, at least he won't starve...

But he's broke, for goodness' sake, and liable to be mistaken for a succubus and confessed to at any moment!

So, to improve his life, he sets up a little stall at the entrance to Adventure Canyon.

With his rabbit head on, he sells lamb, pork, beef, sunflower seeds, peanuts, honey water, and the like every day.

Vegetable and fruit salad, steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, spicy rabbit head(?)

A crowd of diners rushes over to grab a bite. After all, not only is the food Yin Mi makes delicious, it also restores mana and health!

Gradually, the little stall becomes a pub, and the pub becomes a big restaurant.

But can someone tell them why those quiet but beautiful elves like beef hot pot best?

The bad-tempered fire demon can't get enough of cream ice cream, and werewolves love freshly made stinky tofu.

And all you succubi, stop eating dry, choking yogurt! Think of your image!

At least there's Mr. Brown Bear, who fits Yin Mi's stereotype. He looks at Yin Mi holding a honey bun and nods with satisfaction.

Muer twitches his nose and looks at the fluffy rabbit who smells like freshly baked cake. Hmm... he looks pretty tasty too.

Can you really refuse a fluffy bear with a damp little nose?
