The True Heiress's Game System Guide to Saving the World

Also known as: How to Survive After Being Reborn as the Real Heiress in a Trash Heap

Rouying transmigrated into a cannon-fodder female supporting character in a card-collecting game set in a sci-fi universe, a game she had never paid much attention to. She was the "real heiress" whom a member of the Federal Committee had just recovered from a trash heap, and a useless "princess" of a spoiled second-generation rich kid who would go on to offend nearly every genius protagonist in the story.

Rouying immediately decided to lie flat, but she couldn't resist the World Administration Bureau's heavy hand. The Bureau's survival-expert System T002 forcibly bound itself to her and gave her the all-knowing perspective of a game player.

After finishing the game's story, Rouying was so stunned she nearly passed out. The game was actually a grimdark, cruel story about a villainous protagonist. In the not-too-distant future, the insect swarm would welcome back their queen: Bloodwine, the villainous boss.

And she was the unlucky player protagonist. During the military academy student competition, she would become a foil for the so-called villain boss, who was actually the true female lead. Just one step away from winning the championship, she would be killed by the boss's sudden appearance, then turned into a mindless walking corpse among the insect swarm.

As the boss's revenge and slaughter unfolded, the Federation and Empire would collapse in decay, the Church and corporations would become drifting fragments, and the entire sea of stars would return to the singularity of destruction.

Rouying: This is great! Everyone's dead! Why the hell are they chasing after a spoiled rich kid who crawled out of a trash heap like me?! And wasn't I supposed to be the protagonist? No wonder this game company went bankrupt!

T002: This is just the beginning. Supreme divinity is everywhere, the Federation and Empire are joined at the hip, and the Church and corporations follow along behind. This sea of stars is full of dangers. Host, rest assured. Although your identity puts you in danger throughout the stars, as a survival-expert System, I will warn you whenever you encounter a threat! I guarantee your safety!

T002 hadn't expected the Host it had so carefully selected to be unwilling to cooperate.

After secretly getting another mental-power test, Rouying discovered that her mental power wasn't the original protagonist's useless E-rank. It was A-rank, good enough to make her a genius even at one of the top two military academies.

And it seemed there was room for it to grow even stronger?

Rouying: Huh? Really? I'm actually a genius?

And as a player, she could see health bars above every kind of being. In that case...

T002: Host, listen. That person is a noble young master from the Empire. He looks down on second-generation rich kids like you who grew up on a garbage planet and are mediocre besides. Danger rating: three stars. Avoid him.

Rouying: What? Don't hesitate, just go all out against him! Go wild!

T002: Host, listen. He's an old-school academic from the Federal Academy of Sciences and a member of the Sovavi Council, established by the supreme divinity known as the Gate of Truth. He looks down on people like you who refuse to flatter him and dare to suggest a better solution. Danger rating: four stars!

Rouying: What? Don't hesitate! Just go all out against him! Go wild!

T002 took a deep breath and began thinking about how to help its Host understand the true Way of Survival.

Then it could only watch as Rouying fought her way through one opponent after another, all the way to the insect queen, the boss.

As the second-ranked System in the World Administration Bureau, T002 had never felt so useless.

The Dawn Star Ring Military Academy has a famous team of underdogs.

Its members are a motley bunch: Rouying, the real heiress from a Federal Committee member's family, a mess who grew up in a trash heap; a hot-blooded battle nun from the Church of Fate who constantly breaks church rules and disrespects the gods; an antisocial data specialist whose family was implicated in a major Imperial case and exiled, leaving them the only one remaining; a dark-net thief and weapon who never tells the truth; and a gender-fluid therapist from the Tushan clan who has never chosen a gender...

No one expects this team of underdogs to accomplish anything. Their homeroom teacher can only pray that they'll graduate without trouble.

But against all odds, the team of six underdogs fights its way through one competitive battle after another, saving nebulae one by one. In the end, they even defeat the elite team from the top-ranked military academy, Eye of the Universe, and set their sights on the resurgent cosmic singularity: Supreme Divinity!

Rouying had deliberately formed a team with the cannon-fodder characters who suffered undeserved misfortune in the game, hoping to hide from fate. Looking at her onion-layered teammates, each with one, two, three, and four hidden identities, she suddenly realized why they had remained underdogs in the game until their deaths.

They were so exceptional, yet before they could shine, they fell in obscurity and dust. To certain beings in the universe, the greatest purpose of the geniuses humanity had painstakingly nurtured was simply to die for them.

How could that be acceptable?

Rouying thought she would protect her companions in this chaotic universe and sea of stars!

She would climb step by step to the highest peak, remove every obstacle, overcome every injustice, pierce the dark night, and bring true dawn and daybreak to this sea of stars. She would show the game company what a true protagonist of an interstellar game was: the Galaxy Seductress!

I have come to witness. I have come to redeem. I have come to become the universe's savior, gather the power of Supreme Divinity, and then... destroy it!

When historians of later generations spoke of that era, all they could feel was awe. Geniuses the likes of which appeared only once in a thousand years emerged one after another. It was a moment of cosmic significance. In the darkest hour, when interstellar monsters swarmed, the insect race watched hungrily, and civil war raged between the Federation and the Empire, the stars of humanity shone brightly.

Later generations called it the Age of the Stars.

From then on, there was no more Supreme Divinity among the stars, only the pinnacle of humanity.

[Not your typical military academy / mecha / insect race / leveling-up / ensemble cast of five (two women, two men, one unknown) / character growth / team spirit / Supreme Divinity / survival-expert System / space-opera universe similar to Honkai: Star Rail / military academy competition]

An over-the-top, Galaxy Seductress Mary Sue, a cunning, smooth-talking, grassroots, abstract, Luffy-like heroine x a beautiful, tragic, strong Imperial Saint, a rich and beautiful, prickly, self-destructive husband-like male lead

The coming-of-age story of young people who go from the bottom of a prestigious academy to interstellar champions and finally humanity's saviors.

This is a traditional interstellar military academy story. Although the heroine is powerful from the start, she does grow over time. Her spirit form is a Kunpeng, and the mental-power system is similar to Sentinel-Guide. I want everyone on the team to be cherished when it matters most. The overall tone is like a shonen series such as One Piece, because the sea of stars is still a sea, haha. I simply want to write about the friendships between young men and women, a proper ensemble cast where everyone gets their moment in the spotlight. They're all friends who tease each other. Their dynamics and many character details are drawn from my own gaming buddies. It's a story about young people traveling all over the universe and changing, reversing, and righting every injustice along the way. It'll probably be very long. The outline alone is already 200,000 characters... If you're interested, please add it to your favorites!

There is a male lead, the captain of the elite team, but friendship is more important. The romance is my own take on two equally strong people competing and vying with each other, like rival animals. They each have their own teams, but they're a silly, innocent couple who save each other. Both have onion-skin identities.

The story of young people.
