An Qi, the last dragon hatchling on Anka Star, a stumbling block in the protagonist's conquest of the stars, and a cannon-fodder character about to be mutated into a monster. If she hadn't been bound to the "Hatchling Rescue System," her life would probably have been labeled something like that.
The System, designed in the shape of a gold coin, invited A Qi to travel with it to another world: "Let's help the cannon-fodder hatchlings change their fates, build up our strength, beat the protagonist to a pulp, kick the empire to the curb, and reach the pinnacle of dragonhood!"
Although A Qi couldn't understand a word the System said, what harm could a gold coin possibly have in mind?! It could only help her earn more gold coins!
The bewildered little hatchling's eyes lit up as she grabbed the enormous "gold coin" that flew right up to her: Guda guda! (Dragon wants to earn lots and lots of gold coins! Dragon wants to live in a huge house!)
[Ancient Era] Sacrificed "Prodigy" x Chief Councilor in a Time of Chaos
System: Hatchling, this guardian may have a bad reputation, and the protagonist will eventually bring him down, but he's pretty rich for now. We can freeload at his house for a while, then stab him in the back when he's about to fall and find a more powerful guardian.
A Qi, who only managed to understand a few key words: Got it! We have to bring down the protagonist! Then we can freeload more meals! And live in a bigger house!
With A Qi's help, the great villain successfully evolved from a treacherous minister into the regent who controlled the court, The Outcast, above all but one and below no one.
Yet the System waited and waited, but not only did it never see the villain brought down, it was also caught red-handed by the great villain for egging the hatchling on to run away from home...
The great villain spoke in a sinister tone: I hear you're the one who's been trying to find my hatchling a new guardian?
The System, caught in his grasp: Hatchling, hatchling, hatchling!!! Help! He's going to kill the System!!!
[Interstellar Era] Escaped Black Market "Merchandise" x Self-Exiled Star of the Empire
System: Hatchling, although the royal family has disowned the great villain, he's still a force to be reckoned with on the frontier stars. Let's use him to survive for now, then stab him in the back. Go to the Capital Star and get his younger brother to be your dad, then inherit his planet! That way, half the galaxy will belong to us!
A Qi: Got it! We have to join forces with the villain and the protagonist to conquer the whole galaxy!
Theme: We are all the protagonists of our own lives
