Ascension of the Ant king

Betrayed by the woman he loved and dying alone in his apartment while feeding his ant colony, Harry Waterson’s miserable life comes to a sudden end. But death was never the end for him. Summoned by the primordial Ant God Antarion, Harry is reborn as Antares Antis, the last true Ant King of the Scarlet Ant Tribe on the dangerous Monster Continent Cretis. No longer a weak, heartbroken human — he now possesses the powerful body of an Antman, along with the divine Insect God System and the Ant God’s Essential Blessing. His mission is clear: Rebuild the fallen Scarlet Ant Tribe. Unite the scattered insect races. Rise from the depths and forge the Insectoid Empire that will one day swallow the entire surface world. Armed with the ability to evolve anything using Essence Points, command absolute loyalty from his swarm, and unlock terrifying insectoid powers, Antares will turn the lowest of pests into an unstoppable force of nature. From a quarantined, mana-poisoned prince on the brink of death… To the sovereign who will drown empires in chitin and blood. The surface races still see ants as nothing more than insignificant vermin. They have no idea what is about to crawl out from beneath the earth. Fair Warning: Ruthless kingdom building. Brutal power progression. Strategic conquest. Dark decisions. Harem.
