Reincarnated as a Hero, but Disguised as a Boy

An adventure-driven Western fantasy, with a strong focus on plot. Updates according to the rankings. Previous blurb (plot version): After transmigrating, Xia Shiqi worked hard as a farmer in the countryside, until one day she was forcibly summoned. In the role of an SSR [Hero]. It's fine. Even a level-one SSR is still an SSR. Enemies, go ahead and charge at her. She's not tired at all and won't be shattered so easily. Xia Shiqi: orz Earlier blurb (romance version): After dying from overwork, Xia Shiqi was lucky enough to be reincarnated. The new world was far more exciting than her old one. Here, elves played the music of life, dragons spread wings that blotted out the sky, dwarves raised hammers of creation, and humans wielded blades sharpened by wisdom... It was so exciting that she immediately wanted to die and go back. Even worse, in this high-risk world, the price of being reborn into a new life was that she had no choice but to take on the fate of a hero. That's right, the kind from fairy tales who are always going off to slay dragons. A half-baked hero and a bunch of companions who could be anywhere... Just thinking about it... Princess, how about you start learning magic and swordsmanship now? Saving yourself seems more reliable and a lot faster than waiting for them. On this dark journey, whose destination was all too clear, the half-baked hero gathered her companions, including but not limited to a noble and beautiful but reclusive mage, a refined and haughty yet extremely self-absorbed elf, and a handsome dragon who was violent, cruel, and had bizarre eating habits... (The order above doesn't reflect their relative importance.) But the half-baked hero had a secret that was less important than being a soul from another world: she was also a Mulan-style hero, disguised as a man. She was even horrified to discover that her chastity was in danger sooner than the world was in danger of ending! The companions she'd thought she could rely on, the ones she could trust to watch her back, had become a threat from within! The noble and dignified mage was actually insecure and gloomy, tugging at her clothes and kneeling at her feet, begging her not to leave him behind. The arrogant, aloof elf would blush and cling to her hand in private, and sometimes sneak into her pile of clothes when she wasn't looking. The fierce and volatile dragon was like a puppy, bluntly and enthusiastically trying to do things with her that weren't fit for children. Even if you say you're willing to be the one on the bottom... Xia Shiqi: ... She didn't want to sword-fight with her bros, and she didn't have the equipment for it. Meanwhile, the chaste and perfect angel she'd happened upon was secretly turning dark whenever she wasn't looking. The gentle, kind holy son of the church kept making moves that tempted her, while the upright and mild-mannered knight apologized as he did things that crossed the line... [In the end, the hero and her unreliable companions became the saviors of the continent, and their tale became the most enduring famous poem on the continent.] Please note: The protagonist is set up as universally adored, but adventure makes up a large part of the story! This is a Western fantasy adventure, not an all-romance story! Romance isn't the main plot; the story is! It's a slow burn. The protagonist attracts all genders (emphasis!!! A true universal heartthrob!!! There are both male and female love interests). The time when each love interest discovers her secret identity varies! She'll definitely be found out before she gets together with a male love interest, but overall, the reveal happens quite late (the whole world won't find out she's a woman until much later, but they will find out). There are lots of male love interests! Most are brief encounters, while a few are regulars! 1. A universally adored female lead. The male characters are all physically and emotionally pure. She really is adored by everyone, regardless of gender or age, human or nonhuman. There is a girl with an unrequited crush on her!!! (Very important, please read this!) 2. The female lead disguises herself as a man, and some characters find out much later. In the end, she'll become famous as a woman. 3. This is an author's personal-fetish project, so I'll include all kinds of things I like, and there'll be quite a few characters, haha. 4. There is a male supporting character who disguises himself as a woman. I want to indulge in that a little, hehe. 5. My tastes are pretty broad. Well, it's normal for things to get a little explicit sometimes. My writing style is a bit raunchy. 6. The female lead disguises herself as a man because the plot requires it. Please add my upcoming novel to your reading list, everyone! "Mom, Life Is the Wilderness." Blurb: My family is an ordinary working-class family. I'm the second child. To escape the small town, I became a typical small-town student who studied hard to get ahead. That's how I studied my way through school, got into a key university, and ended up working myself to the bone in a big city for a salary of five thousand yuan a month. Mom, life is the open wilderness! If it can't be the wilderness, then at least let it be a little wilder. That was what I asked of my stagnant life one day, after getting drunk. The good news: life listened. The bad news: it really listened. The next day, a family that had been rich for who knows how many generations came to see me. They brought a DNA test report and told me that I was actually their real child. Mom, this is way too wild. Note: 1. The blurb is still being updated. 2. The main text isn't written in first person. 3. There will still be lots of male and female love interests. 4. More to come. Written on 2025.6.2. Theme: The journey itself is the most beautiful destination.
