When he was born, the sky was full of sunshine, the flowers blossomed for him, and even the birds sang for him.

He was the Empress of the Empire in the sacrificial prophecy.
He was the last Princess of the Empire.
He was Ashley Joan Rhine.
Unfortunately, he was not the protagonist, so he died miserably in the end.
When Xue Ling woke up, he was lying on a huge double bed, and the bedroom was covered in a layer of pink. One only needed to glance over the decor to guess that it was intended as a bridal room.
But the space beside him was untouched, and it was clear that nobody had lain beside him.
This saved Xue Ling some trouble. If a person really had been there, he may have directly killed them.

Xue Ling rolled around on the bed, and had no intention of getting up. He looked around to make sure that there was no one else in the room before calling out the system and asking it to pass on this world’s plot.
Uh… No wonder the system said that this world was somewhat special. So this was the legendary ABO world with six sexes that was originally created as a way to write smut. Xue Ling took a brief look at the introduction to this world, and learned that it should be categorized as an interstellar ABO story where the Empire was enemies with the Alliance, and there were also the Zerg.
Common settings for this kind of world.
Xue Ling continued to read the story.
The original host’s name was Ashley Joan Rhine. He was born into the oldest family in the empire, the Rhine family. His father was a general of the Empire, his grandfather was the old Prime Minister, and his mother was a gentle female omega who was also a diplomat for the Empire.
As for him, he was the only omega of the Rhine family in this generation.
Xue Ling looked down at his own body and found that it was delicate and frail. He probably looked like a boy toy that was easy to push around.
When Ashley was born, the whole world celebrated with him. Flowers bloomed, birds were singing and the sky was glowing. The prophets predicted his future through divination, and proclaimed that in the future, he would be the Emperor’s Empress.

As a result, this omega that was already well beloved by thousands of people had his life trajectory decided upon just like this. He was engaged to the direct bloodline inheritor of the Royal family; the Prince who was most likely to become the strongest alpha in the Empire in the future. When he was about to come of age, a grand wedding was held and he was married to the Prince, becoming the princess of the Empire.
As long as the Prince ascended the throne, Ashley would be Queen.
Unfortunately, he was not the protagonist, but the Prince was. So on the night of their wedding, the Prince left his bride and went to the front line to fight against the Zerg. Unluckily, the army was ambushed and the Prince disappeared.
Like every standard interstellar plot, the missing Prince lost his memory and landed on an ordinary planet. He was picked up by an omega disguised as beta, and after many days spent together, they developed deep feelings for each other.
All sorts of accidents and events happened around them, and finally, in an accident that threatened the hero’s life, His Highness recovered his memory, saved the omega, exposed his identity and marked him all in one go.
It was an ABO world, but the genders were not as unequal as in many ABO worlds. Omegas could go to school and take part in combat training, but due to their weaker bodies and the potential influence of pheromones during estrus, the government did not encourage them to become fighters, to the point where strict controls were put into place. After all, they could not let a single omega affect the entire alpha army. Terrible things may occur on the battlefield with even one accidental heat. Therefore, the government hoped that they would do civilian work. For example, Ashley’s mother became a diplomat.

Inevitably, the protagonist shou had to be different. He was an orphan and believed from childhood that his parents had died on the battlefield against the Zerg as heroes of the Empire, and he also wanted to become a hero just like them. In order to hide his identity as omega, he has been trying to make money to buy inhibitors to disguise himself as a beta so that he could fulfill his dream of killing enemies on the battlefield. Betas had a higher probability of acceptance by the military academy, and he yearned to join the army and fight. It was precisely that drive and perseverance that made the Prince appreciate him more and more.
Omegas were scarce, so each alpha was only allowed to mark one omega. Once the Prince had marked the protagonist shou, the Princess that he had left behind in the palace could not be kept around.
Furthermore, the Prince had not liked him and his family from an early age.
The Prince had great ambition and wanted to centralize power, so he made a lot of moves behind the scene. He killed Ashley’s parents and brother and made it look like an accident, framed his grandfather, and destroyed the family that had existed since the beginning of the empire. Finally, he left Ashley to his bodyguards when he went into heat and watched as he was raped and marked, even going so far as to film the scene.
Finally, he released a video of the Princess ‘cheating’, announced his divorce, ascended the throne and married the protagonist shou.
The two fought together in the army, killing everywhere they went, and for a time they were the epitome of the perfect couple.
While traveling to his place of exile, the original body’s owner died in the turbulence of a space storm, and not even his bones were left behind. This was probably the result of the Prince’s handiwork, as the protagonist shou was always jealous due to their previous engagement. The Prince did not want anything to come between him and his lover, and so he simply killed Ashley off.

After his death, the Rhine family was completely exterminated. The Zerg went completely berserk, and began a desperate attack.
The Empire and the Alliance joined forces and started a century-long war, but ultimately, the human race was destroyed, and space turned completely desolate.
So, he was the last Princess of the Empire.
Xue Ling found it a little strange. He grabbed the system’s ears and asked, “Why did the Zerg go mad and fight without any scruples after the Rhine family collapsed?”
