The Crybaby Alpha is Actually Really Cool

Blurb:

Ruan Qingyao was tested and determined from a young age to differentiate into an Omega, so he studied arts like zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, as well as cooking and embroidery. He was doted on by his parents and older brothers growing up, and would cry piteously for comfort over every little scrape.

However, in his eighteenth year, he differentiated into an Alpha—and the most formidable S-rank Alpha at that.

The moment he saw the test results, Ruan Qingyao swayed, his eyes brimming with tears, asking: “What happened to definitely differentiating into an Omega?!”

No matter which institution he went to for testing, Ruan Qingyao was a confirmed Alpha.

Imperial law dictates that all adult Alphas must serve five years of military service in the Military Tower. Upon receiving the notice, and recalling the terrifying legends of the Military Tower, Ruan Qingyao scared himself into the ICU, missing his initial entry date.

The following year, the Tower Lord personally came to welcome him. Ruan Qingyao could only pack his bags, wipe his tears, and bid farewell to his family.

During the new recruits’ orientation, the drill sergeant tried to intimidate them and insisted on one-on-one fights with the new Alphas.

The crowd of Alphas were angry but dared not speak, getting beaten black and blue.

When it was Ruan Qingyao’s turn, he cried out a piteous “Nooo!” but then knocked the drill sergeant out with a single punch.

The now black-and-blue drill sergeant was angry but dared not speak.

Due to his outstanding beauty and slender physique, Ruan Qingyao was targeted by the veterans the moment he entered the Tower.

One day, Ruan Qingyao was cornered in the restroom. A veteran insisted on showing him his abs and even pulled Ruan Qingyao’s hand to let him feel them.

Ruan Qingyao’s eyes turned red. Wiping away a tear, he punched the veteran’s eight-pack into a single block.

Ruan Qingyao: Wuwuwu, I hate abs the most! Give me back my soft little tummy, I don’t want an eight-pack.

Later, when their comrades saw Ruan Qingyao cry, they didn’t even bother handing him a tissue. That hateful violent maniac was just trying to trick them into lowering their guard!

Ruan Qingyao: Yingyingying, poor, weak, and helpless QAQ

When Ruan Qingyao returned victorious after killing the Zerg Queen, the news department interviewed him: “We heard you were close to death several times. What gave you the strength to turn the tide and kill the Zerg Queen?”

Everyone expected him to say his family, comrades, friends, or his lover gave him strength.

Ruan Qingyao lightly touched a nearly invisible scratch on his cheek, his eyes turning red: “Mom told me that my face is my most precious thing and must never be damaged.”

The audience watching the live broadcast: The Zerg Queen died with her eyes wide open (in disbelief/unrest).

Blurb Two

People in the Interstellar era can summon their own companion spirit artifact at age eighteen. Since Alphas’ artifacts are all combat-type, they are also called spirit-weapons.

Ruan Qingyao, who had believed himself to be an Omega for eighteen years, became the first Alpha without a spirit-weapon.

His spirit artifact is an exquisite, ornate little box.

The little box not only has a super-large storage space, but it also randomly produces one item every day.

• The ornate gemstones are concentrated energy crystals.
• The fragrant body lotion not only whitens and tenderizes the skin but can also regenerate flesh and mend bones.
• The pretty lipstick can actually apply powerful combat buffs, like critical hits and critical damage.
• Huh? This perfume instantly dispels all fatigue, allowing one to fight for five hundred more years!

…

The transition for his comrades from disdain and contempt to envy and admiration was just one drop of “immortal water” away.

Ruan Qingyao relies on his precious little box to thrive in the logistics sector.

And he firmly keeps his little secret hidden—his box can also produce weapon-type jewelry with serious fighting power.

He absolutely refuses to be the Main DPS; it’s dangerous and tiring!

As for why he ultimately became the hero who saved the world…

Yao Yao is also very confused.

Supplementary Information:

• The Military Tower operates with squad-based action units, with a minimum of six people per squad.
• Squad Composition: Main DPS (C), Secondary DPS (C), Support, Healer (Nanny), Logistics.
• Spirit artifacts have Spiritual Energy, and the highest Spiritual Energy level determines their efficacy.
• Spiritual Energy is divided into nine levels, with Level 1 being the lowest and Level 9 the highest.
• ABOS all have scent glands and pheromones, but Beta’s glands are very small and pheromone volume is very, very low.
• Pheromones can both affect people and replenish the Spiritual Energy consumed by the artifacts.
• Pheromone levels are S, A down to E, F, and are innate.
• An upgrade-style story, but Yao Yao’s intelligence/mind is maxed out from the start.
• Both blurbs follow a plot-driven style, but the proportion of romance in the main text is uncertain.
