Chapter 1: When I woke up, I've become an earth dragon

I woke up.

Hng… I had a good sleep.

Aah, I don't want to wake up but I don't feel like sleeping anymore.
I feel so tired from working overtime last night but everything seems to have gone away now.
I don't care, I want to stay in my bed for 3 days.
I mean, I don't want to go to work.
They keep giving me hard times while I was there anyway. I wonder if it's better for me to just look for a new job.
But it's already too late to do that this year.
While thinking useless things, I sluggishly raised my body.

THUD

Ouch.

Did I b.u.mp into something?

What is this?

That moment, I realized something.
I was in a strange and pitch dark place.
And what is this, am I trapped? It feels like something is blocking my way.
It feels so stuffy.
What's going on here?

Knock Knock

Yup, I understand it now.
Right now, I'm completely surrounded by a strange wall.
Oddly enough, this wall also feels slimy.
Is it a wooden box or something? But why is it wet?

Huh? Why am I inside a box?
Eeh? By any chance, did I get kidnapped?
Have I been taken as a captive?
There's no way right?!

To tell you the truth, I'm only a mediocre salaryman working for the company. My daily life is far from extraordinary to be in this situation.
I only have a little saving, single and both of my parents are living quietly in the countryside.
Indeed. I still don't have a girlfriend.
Haha.
I am a useless employee, but I never remember doing things that can bring resentment to my company.

What I'm saying here is, there's no reason for me to get kidnapped.
I'm a pretty harmless creature, if I may say so myself.
And of course, I will never go to a dangerous place that can get me kidnapped.
I'm a scaredy cat. I'm a chicken. I can't even go to Kabukichō.

Then, why am I in such place?

I can't understand this!

While I was screaming, flailing my arms around.

s.h.i.+NG!

The box was easily broken.

Huh?

As it broke, there's light entering the place.
It was dazzling.
When I took a close look at it, it's not a wooden box.
I wonder what it is?
A white thin sh.e.l.l? And its surface, it's slimy.

This is…?

I know exactly what this is.
That's right. It's an egg!
It looks exactly like an egg!

…Hmm? An egg?

I have a strange feeling with it so I quickly look at my body.

What I saw is soil-coloured reptile arm and four fingers with claws protruding from each of them.

Eeh?

I looked at my legs.
Similarly, my legs were also covered by rough scales.

………Eeh?

The eggsh.e.l.l, which was broken earlier, reflected the light and produced a faint image of me on it.

What I saw is a lizard.

No, it almost looks like a……

—dragon?

Thus, I was reincarnated as a dragon.

TLN: Kabukicho is a place where the adult have fun.
