Idle Mage: Humanity's Strongest Backer

They said they came from out of nowhere. There were no signs of their arrival nor there were any loud sounds. One day, Humanity woke up and was forced to accept their existence...along with the destruction they brought with them. Ashton West, a orphan and a transmigrator from Earth. He woke up in this near-apocalyptic world without anyone else to rely on aside from himself. Thankfully, he was blessed with a golden finger that came with his transmigration package! Ashton: This world needs a Hero...sadly, I can't be bothered to be one. Ashton: Surely there's someone out there who can fulfill that role. As for me? Well... "Being 'Humanity's Strongest Backer' doesn't sound so bad." *** Disclaimer: 1. Cover's not mine. Found it online and edited it. This is for temporary use.

It's not fun...dealing with Insect-type Demons.

They're gross and yucky even for a battle-hardened Ashton. Their piercing screeches hurts his ears and every time he shoots them, their bodies always make that skin-crawling, gross, squelching sound which is just...no.

The tunnel network was bigger and airy than what he initially expected. It's smelly too, so much that Ashton had to wear a respirator since he just didn't want to deal with that.

A few things in his initial plan didn't work.

For starters, insect-type demons are uncannily perceptive, they practically sensed him the moment he stepped foot in the tunnels.

He didn't get 'mobbed' per se, since there weren't a lot of insects roaming around this particular area anyway. However, there are enough of them to make him sweat a bit.
