The main character was an average man in his past life who had a deep, hidden desire for power, which was suppressed all his life because of the rules of his past world. Now reborn as a beetle with the potential to challenge the heavens in a world where the law of the jungle reigns supreme, he can let this deep desire fully emerge, which will help him survive and thrive. Because the main character is reborn as an insect, he doesn't have a strong affinity with humans.

I was talking about wanting an insect-motif hero, but I never said turn me into a literal bug!? The moment I reincarnated in this new world, this is already a total trash experience!! Blood-pumping battles? Heartwarming interactions with people from another world? Yeah, no can do. I’m a caterpillar right now. I want to scream about how unfair this is, but I can’t even do that — I don’t have vocal cords! So for the time being… I’m just trying to survive in a corner of this vast forest, munching on tough, disgusting leaves and the nasty remains of monsters! Together with the reliable voice in my head and this weirdly attached cute little caterpillar… First things first, I’ve gotta evolve and aim for a cool, armored exoskeleton body!! Defense is seriously important, okay!!
