I Save the World by Acting Cute [Interstellar]

Reborn—that's not scary. Transported into a world teeming with mutated bugs—also not scary. The key point is, he reincarnated as a chili pepper. A bright red, blazing hot chili pepper that can even burn itself to tears with a single breath. What a damn world! Even worse, those giant bugs devour plants—luckily, he can control other vegetation and barely escapes their jaws. There’s a certain general who lives for spice, craving heat like nothing else. One day, he stumbles upon a chili pepper lounging in the drunken pose of a noble consort, carried by several plants in a grand procession... The general: "..." That chili is clearly the king of peppers—must pack one hell of a kick. The little chili shivers, feeling an impending crisis for its poor body. A long, long time later, the general stares at the man on the bed and says, "Turn back into a chili so I can take a few licks. If I can’t eat you, I’ll savor the taste—that spice is just too addictive." The man, who had just dressed in seductive attire, instantly scowls... Damn you, General! All you ever think about is eating chilies! Hope you burn your tongue off! Really, this is just the story of a chili pepper using its powers to thrive in the human world, becoming the ultimate king of peppers.
