The head of a corporation that controls nearly half the spacecraft manufacturing in the entire star region, and a rare 3S male Zerg, sincerely believes he's just an insignificant passerby.
The reason is that from the moment he was born, he knew he was a brainless minor character in a book, with barely any appearances. But the identity of the book's protagonist was unknown.
The male lead shrugs, grows up as expected, and waits for the protagonist to arrive.
Bored out of his mind, he takes the entrance exam after enrolling and casually comes first, breaking the school's highest score record.
Then he casually becomes the first 3S male Zerg in the star region, showing the Zerg that S-rank isn't the limit of mental power.
Finally, he casually overcomes all objections and wins everyone's respect with his abilities, becoming the first male Zerg to inherit the family business.
In everyone's eyes, that male Zerg is terrifyingly formidable. Legends about him are spread everywhere.
"What? You want to know why the male lead always looks listless and tired?"
How dare you! What do you know? That's the serene aura unique to a powerful figure.
The male lead doesn't know who the protagonist is, so from time to time he sizes up and observes the people around him, trying to figure out which one is the transmigrator. He doesn't limit his observations to male or female Zerg, either. Even lesser female Zerg are fair game.
His chief secretary, a lesser female Zerg, finds himself under scrutiny. He stays calm on the outside, but inside he marvels: The male lead is incredible. I hid my mistake at work so well this time, yet he still noticed.
A male Zerg from a prestigious family, somewhat famous for being considerate toward female Zerg, learns he's being investigated and immediately panics: What's going on? Could the male lead have seen through my fake persona? Am I only acting gentle and refined so I can deceive female Zerg and then torture them in a basement?
A female Zerg does everything to get in the male lead's way, arranging another chance encounter for the nth time in an attempt to seduce him. When she meets his deep, scrutinizing gaze, her heart jumps: It feels like he's seen right through me. Could he have figured out that I'm an undercover agent sent by a rival company to get close to him?
Everyone the male lead pays attention to: He's terrifyingly formidable! His powers of observation are godlike!
The male lead has no idea. He just sighs: This one's not the protagonist, and neither is that one. Where is the protagonist, anyway?
In the end, his gaze falls on a certain imperial marshal. The marshal meets his eyes, keeping his icy expression unchanged, but his ears grow redder and redder.
The marshal made his name at a young age, knows everything, has unique insights, and is a 3S female Zerg. The more the male lead looks at him, the more convinced he is that this marshal must be the protagonist.
In the end, he marries the marshal and brings him home.
Hehehe~
Bonus scene:
One day, in a home so vast it takes up most of a mountain, the male lead holds his imperial marshal husband and sighs with concern: Someone as ordinary and insignificant as me... what am I going to do in the future~
The recipient looks conflicted: Husband, stop humblebragging already!!
A male lead who appears desireless and indifferent but has a wildly dramatic inner life x a powerful, cold, and ruthless recipient who readily accepts his husband's thought process
P.S. There is no transmigrator and no so-called protagonist, and this world isn't a book. The male lead thinks he transmigrated into a book because his mental activity suddenly went haywire. In short: his brain glitched.
