I Became a Hatchling

Synopsis

I Became a Hatchling Chapter 30 has been released. Rune's eyes snapped open to a burst of golden light that seared his retinas, shredding the illusions of his afterlife. The aged monk who'd stood vigil beside him since eternity still grasped the dying breaths within his frail chest – but beneath shaking fingers lay something inconceivable. Beneath them was an infant dragon's scaly hide, glistening like precious jade as it trembled on unsteady legs. A chill wind whipped through Rune's mental fortress, eviscerating cherished dreams shorn from nineteen centuries of mortal existence, leaving the quiet anguish of irrelevance. Nine hundred ninety-nine winters receded like tattered silks, fueling the confounding rage churning within him. As muted reminiscences whirled through shattered tranquility, childlike innocence began insidiously creeping upon dispirited thought patterns worn by relentless accumulations of timeless regret. Surrendering wasn't something Imugi had ever been familiar with; wisdom concluded struggles rarely sprouted fruit anyway yet bloodiest failures did develop earthen grins entombed inside hardship landmarks...
