After The Abyss Dragon Woke Up

Shi An is the last Abyss Dragon in the world. Since he was bored, he decided to go into a deep sleep while hugging his treasures. After fifty thousand years of satisfying slumber, Shi An opened his eyes only to discover that he had become a weak human with short hands and legs. He glanced down at his mysteriously downsized body and then lifted his head to look around his empty cave. “……” Where is my powerful and majestic body? My big tail? Most importantly, where are my treasures?! After thousands of years of hard work, sleeping just once has sent me to square one. *** In the year 2202, the conflicts between humans and monsters are becoming more and more intense. Although the monsters are strong, the fantastical species that used to rule the continent have all but disappeared. Shi An, the Shi family’s youngest son, is Mage Academy’s infamous mage who has no magic power. Each student’s magic power is measured at the beginning of the school year. Shi An looked at the three destroyed magic detection equipment and innocently asked, “Eh? Are these equipment’s quality not very good?” During actual combat training, low-ranked monsters fled before Shi An could get close. Shi An looked at their fleeing figures and innocently exclaimed, “Yay, lucky!” Everyone else was speechless. “……?” I believe I am dreaming. *** Mu Heng——human species’ strongest mage——is the only remaining human who bears the noble dragon slayer bloodline. He coldly and arrogantly said, “Dragons? Extinction is their best outcome.” A long time later, Mu Heng turned his head back to look at the dragon cub reclining on the piles of treasure. Mu Heng withdrew his gaze and leisurely asked, “Are there any other jobs? I want a well-paid one.” Extinction is out of the question now. As a matter of fact, I can only earn more money so that I won’t get kicked out of bed at night.

## My Thoughts on After The Abyss Dragon Woke Up "After the Abyss Dragon Woke Up" is a wild ride, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a comedic fantasy with action, adventure, and a dash of romance that kept me hooked from beginning to end. It's a story about a dragon who wakes up in a human body and has to find a way to get his strength and treasure back. What unfolds is a hilarious journey filled with unexpected alliances, enemies, and a love story that's as chaotic as it is sweet. ### First Impressions The premise immediately grabbed me. A lazy, overpowered dragon waking up in a weak human body? Sign me up! The initial chapters are filled with humorous situations as Shi An, the dragon, navigates the human world, trying to regain his power and retrieve his stolen treasures. The contrast between his true nature and his human disguise is played for laughs, and it works incredibly well. ### What Works Well The characters are the heart of this story. Shi An is a fantastic protagonist – a dragon through and through. He's selfish, greedy, and doesn't care much about humans, but he's also surprisingly naive and innocent in some ways. His interactions with Mu Heng, the cold dragon slayer, are gold. Their relationship is a slow burn that evolves from animosity to mutual obsession. I also appreciated the world-building. The magic system is interesting, and the lore surrounding the Abyss and the dragons adds depth to the story. The side characters, especially the demon minions, are a delight and provide plenty of comedic relief. The plot moves at a great pace, keeping me engaged without feeling rushed. The author balances humor, action, and romance perfectly, creating a truly enjoyable reading experience. ### Areas of Concern While I loved the story overall, I did have a couple of minor issues. The main plot about who summoned Shi An from the Abyss felt a bit predictable. Also, some readers may take issue with the ML's behavior. While I didn't mind it, others may find Mu Heng's possessiveness towards Shi An to be a bit much. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers may take issue with the ML's behavior. There are some scenes that portray the ML as taking advantage of the MC, which can be uncomfortable for some readers. ### Final Verdict Despite a few minor flaws, "After the Abyss Dragon Woke Up" is a fantastic read. It's a hilarious, action-packed, and heartwarming story with memorable characters and a unique premise. If you're looking for a fun and engaging fantasy novel with a strong romantic subplot, I highly recommend giving this one a try. I'm giving it a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars.
