Changed the name a bit, in fact, the theme of this novel is all about wilderness survival. But the name "Rescue Expert" was too straightforward, every time I opened the document, it just didn't feel right and I couldn't write the story. Yesterday, when I was writing the labels, I suddenly had an inspiration. Although I wanted to call it something like "Fighting Over Men with the Domineering Lord Gong," it seems that the word "Gong" might be blocked. So I changed it to this. Although I'm still a little unsatisfied, at least with this change, I know how to write it. In the future, this novel can be divided into volumes: "Days of Fighting Over Men with the Domineering Orc," "Days of Fighting Over Men with the Domineering Emperor," "Days of Fighting Over Men with the Domineering Pope," "Days of Fighting Over Men with the Domineering CEO," "Days of Fighting Over Men with the Demonic Sect Leader," etc. In short, it's about a professional rescuer saving the little uke who falls into the hands of a domineering XX.
