Shina made her way towards one of the pods. As she stepped inside, the dical team quickly acted, attaching thin, flexible wires to her at strategic points.
Once the wires were in place, the dical staff fitted a mask over her face. The team then proceeded to close the pod’s glass doors, sealing her inside.
The mont the doors shut, Bing Shi closed her eyes and focused on her breathing as the liquid in the pod began to rise. It was a strange sensation. It first engulfed her feet, then slowly climbed up her legs and body.
Stationed close to the pod, a guard maintained a steady gaze over the area.

Bing Shi returned to her space room, calling out to her system, "I’m ready, Kuro."

Welco to the world of the beastn, a primitive society where raw at and blood were the height of culinary sophistication.
In this savage realm, every male could transform into a beast form. Not only were they masters of shapeshifting, they were also astonishingly handso.
In a land where females were extrely scarce and competition fierce, males understood that to win a female’s heart, they had to be better than their peers in everything.
The females were, in essence, the antithesis of their male counterparts. They couldn’t shape-shift, yet survival here demanded tough bodies. Due to this, the males made sure their females had enough to eat.
Naturally, all the feeding and lack of movent caused the females to beco more robust. The extra weight served as insulation against the biting cold and provided energy reserve for difficult tis.
yiyang, a lost high school student, stumbled into this wild world. She narrowly avoided becoming the main course for the local wildlife and was rescued by a leopard beastman, then brought to the nearest village.
What set iyiang apart from other females even more was her striking beauty. In a world where females were a far cry from elegance, iyiang’s looks were unparalleled. Her delicate features and flawless complexion made her the jewel among rough stones.
iyiang was monogamous and couldn’t fathom the idea of starting a harem. She’d rather return to her old life, but such was her luck. While other won would do anything to exchange their place with iyiang and enjoy the company of handso and devoted males, she wasn’t having any of it.
The story started with her struggle to survive the harsh conditions of her new environnt while her beauty attracted unwanted attention from the worst kind of beastn.
Many of them could have been easily avoided if she had so sense of danger, but no. She wandered to the woods alone (despite being almost devoured by a pack of wolves before) to return a random fabric she found. It belonged to soone else and she was afraid they might be looking for it? (The leopard beastman wanted to burn it because it belonged to a feral. She knew, yet she still decided to face possible death and torture.)
And surprise, surprise, she ended up getting captured by a feral snake man, who forced his imprint on her and beca her mate against her will.
Ferals were different from regular beatn. They didn’t follow rules and didn’t live in tribes, known for kidnapping and killing females. Their animalistic instincts were closer to their beast side, making them stronger but more aggressive and savage.
No matter who she t and where she was, iyang could always count on her kindness and gentle deanor to help her avoid the worst outco.
Not only were the females in this world not visually attractive, but their attitude could be described as rude and abrasive. They were also very greedy and jealous, making the average iyang look like a Holy Maiden by comparison.
This made the males want to protect her all the more—even feral beastn.
Apart from that, iyang was extrely "knowledgeable". Having received modern education, she introduced these at-loving folks to the wonders of pots, fire, spices, food planting and even iron smiting.
Bing Shi marveled at the world she had found herself in, ’It’s so straightforward, yet it works so beautifully. I don’t know if innovating it like iyiang did would be a good thing. What do you think, Dai An?’
This was where won, despite their scarcity, were held in the highest regard. Their value far outweighed their numbers. Of course, there were so cases where they weren’t treated right, but it was extrely, extrely, extrely rare.
’~It’s perfect as it is. I wouldn’t change a thing.’
iyiang was one of the few female leads with a happy ending. She ended up with four loving mates and was able to return to her original world where they lived together as a big family untill they died of old age.
So where was the problem?
iyiang had her period every month while the female population in the beastn world had it once a year. This ant that her fertility cycle was extrely high.
A beastman stayed in his animal form until he reached adulthood (around 15 years old) when he would undergo the first change into a human form. After the change, they could switch back and forth between the two.
iyiang could give birth to a litter of snake beastn eggs a month, so imagine when these snake beastn grow up and find their own females...
The beastn race would dominate the world, which wasn’t a problem if they were reasonable. But as ntioned earlier, most ferals weren’t.
The ending of her world wasn’t pretty, for anyone.

iyiang was going about her daily tasks, tending to her garden and gathering food, when a few tribe females approached her with mocking laughter. They circled her, dressed in animal skin, their tone dripping with venomous words.
"You think you’re so special, don’t you?" one of them taunted, her tone laced with envy of iyang’s charms, "What makes you think you can have the leopard prince all to yourself?"
iyiang stood up, scoffing at the females’ attempts to belittle her, "Paxter is not my mate. If you want him, you can go ahead and try."
"Maybe we will. You don’t deserve him anyway!"
"Roar! Leave my female alone!" A golden leopard announced his presence with a roar, shifting into his human form, "ii, I’m back! Let’s copulate!" he said while pouncing at her.
iyiang scolded him, "Paxter, no! This is not the ti! Not here!"
"Don’t be like that, iyiang. Why are you rejecting ?" the leopard man’s ears drooped, a pitiful expression on his face, "I saved your life. I have the right to have you. We are ant to be together, ii."
"We are not mating. Now let go of . I’m not feeling well," she insisted, trying to free herself from his embrace.
"Not feeling well? Are you hurting sowhere, ii?" The leopard man lifted her and ran in the village’s doctor’s direction, worried senseless, "I’m bringing you to the healer. Maybe you caught sothing. My poor ii. Don’t worry, the healer will cure you and then you’ll be all mine," he declared.
iyang was left speechless by his shalessness, "That’s not what I ant! And stop calling yours! I am not your female."

anwhile...
A scaly creature slithered through the dense jungle toward his dwelling, an underground burrow hidden among the lush foliage.
The snake beastman surveyed the area, his tongue flickering and tasting the air.
His nest was dimly lit by the filtered light from the canopy above. His bed was made from the softest leaves and mosses the jungle could offer, layered over a fra of branches.
His red eyes fell upon an unexpected sight that stopped him in his tracks. There, on his makeshift bed, lay a girl of such breathtaking beauty that she seed to outshine even the stars. With features so delicate and ethereal that she appeared almost otherworldly.
Her brown hair, a cascade of lustrous waves, spilled over the edges of the bed like a river of moonlight. Her skin glowed with a radiance that seed to illuminate the dim cave, and her lips were like the petals of the most exquisite flower in the jungle.
As he stood there, transfixed, a myriad of emotions swirled within him – surprise, fascination, and a hint of conflict.
"What are you doing here, female?"
He approached the female slowly, his body moving gracefully and fluidly, like the snake he was.
"Wake up, female. Answer ."
At the sound of his voice, the female stirred and opened her eyes.
The beastman was stunned once more. Her eyes were like jewels, sparkling with an inner light that seed to capture the essence of the sun.
