Su Wudeng crossed over to a futuristic beast-taming world, only to find herself bound to a Pet Shop Management System.
To her dismay, this beast-taming society had already reached its twilight. The planetary ecosystem was on the brink of total collapse, and real pets were critically endangered to the point of extinction. Left with no other choice, humanity had turned to rigid mechanical pets for emotional substitution and relied on digital streams to raise virtual companions.
Fortunately, Su Wudeng’s system granted her the unique ability to travel back and forth across a span of ten thousand years, returning to a grand era of prosperity. In that distant past, nature had not yet been ravaged by the great cataclysm, and vibrant, living pets roamed freely across the land.
From an abandoned Crystal Snow Cat to a critically injured, dying Iron-Eating Beast, and even a stranded Blue Crystal Whale that practically threw itself at her feet—Su Wudeng simply waved her hand and rescued them all!
Consequently, while other shops in the interstellar era were still selling mainstream mechanical pets—advertising their cold, imposing strength and highlighting their hyper-intelligent AI interactions—a soft, marshmallow-like Crystal Snow Cat quietly entered the public eye.
Initially, a barrage of negative labels like “fragile,” “useless ornament,” and “pointless” was slapped onto the creature. Rival pet stores called for an outright boycott, and prominent influencers publicly claimed that raising such weak animals would only make interstellar humans equally soft.
Just when every pet shop across the galaxy was confidently declaring that the Crystal Snow Cat could never win the hearts of the modern public, a single comment was upvoted to the top of the trending charts:
“Everyone keeps saying they aren’t buying one, so why the hell can’t I manage to snag one in the shop?!”
Only then did the galaxy realize that the netizens around them had secretly turned into master braggarts, constantly flooding social media with their new companions.
“I am so in love with my little baby! When I was crying late last night, it marched right over with its tiny tail pointing straight up in the air, circling me and meowing non-stop. It kept rubbing its little head against me, and I was instantly comforted!”
“Waking up in the morning to find my baby snuggling in my arms, purring softly… I am officially the happiest person alive~”
“So what if it knocks over a vase, drinks from my water glass, or chews on a stray wire? My baby had to leave its mother to come live with me at such a young age; what’s wrong with a little harmless mischief!”
Interstellar humans, who had never experienced the joy of raising a real, living pet, fell completely and utterly in love. The Crystal Snow Cat swiftly took the entire galaxy by storm.
Soon after, Su Wudeng began livestreaming her rescue expeditions in the past, skyrocketing straight to the top of the trending boards. Hyped-up viewers flooded her chat with passionate declarations:
# Real women don’t hesitate—let me at that massive Snow Leopard!
# My house is huge, and I’m not afraid of a guilt trip. Come to me, Blue Crystal Whale!
# That Sword-Heart Husky is way too cool! …Wait a minute, is it currently dismantling her living room?
# How can this adorable little fluffball be called an ‘Iron-Eating Beast’?
# The shopkeeper said it best: ‘You lot really live in a golden age. Unbelievable, you’re actually raising national treasures as house pets!’
