I lost consciousness. I fainted and only woke up sometime later, not knowing where I was. However, it wasn't pleasant.

I felt like I was trapped somewhere—I couldn't move. I couldn't speak, smell anything, or even hear anything. All my senses had vanished.

"Is anyone there? Will that voice say something again?" I thought.

After a few seconds of silence, the voice spoke again.

[User's characteristics will be altered]

[Race changed to "Dragon"]

[Status increased by 100x]

[Status has been updated]

[User is sealed]

[Attempting to break seal]

[Failed…]

[Failed…]

[Failed…]

[Seal is successfully broken. The user is now free.]

[Welcome to the Hentai System. I will be serving as your support.]

Slowly, my vision returned, but it was still dark around me. Am I inside a cave or something? The voice said my race had changed to Dragon.

I remember now. Wasn't it Veldora who was sealed in a cave? Does that mean I've become him?

"Is Rimuru around here?"

I couldn't move very well. I could see a little light in the distance. It was natural light produced by glowing stones within the cave. It was damp and didn't smell great.

"Am I unable to move well because I've turned into a dragon?"

Even though it was dark, I could feel the changes in my body. I was huge. I had claws instead of hands, and I could swing my tail.

I'm too large to move freely.

"Damn, this is crazy."

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Then, a new system message appeared.

[Would you like to switch to your human form?]

"Right on time!" I felt extremely excited. I immediately assumed my human form. It was an instant transformation. In the blink of an eye, I was back in a human body.

To my surprise, I have the same body I had before coming to this world.

Tall, muscular, with a beard that enhanced my masculinity. Since I was an actor, even if only in adult films, I always took good care of myself. So, my hair and beard were always well-groomed.

I had blue eyes, which left women hypnotized. Very bright eyes.

"I'm glad I didn't lose this appearance."

Excited, I clenched my fists and checked my status, as the system had mentioned. If I've become a dragon, I should be pretty strong, right?

However, it is disappointing.

Name: Mark Bowman

Class: Porn Actor

Race: Dragon/Human

Strength: 100

Agility: 250

Endurance: 650

Magic: 870

My only ability is [Metamorphosis], which allows me to transform into a dragon or any other animal or monster.

If I became Veldora, this is a new ability. I don't remember him having this.

But if I am truly Veldora, this is disappointing. I've lost all his original strength. Veldora was a feared dragon, one of the strongest in this world, but I've lost all his power.

"This sucks." I thought I'd be one of the strongest and wouldn't need to worry about anything, but that's not the case. And now that the original Veldora has disappeared, won't that be a problem?

He was someone important to the story.

"It would've been better to have become Rimuru."

I looked around and started to walk slowly. The cave gradually became more illuminated. There was vegetation on the walls and water all over the floor.

"If I remember correctly, there are some useful herbs here. But I can't grab them right now."

Unlike Rimuru, I can't store or create things. The only thing I can do is try to get out of here. A map would be very helpful, but even after asking the system for assistance, nothing happened.

Then, after long minutes of walking, I began to hear sounds all around me.

Monsters.

I tried to avoid the monsters as much as possible. Even though I'd trained in hand-to-hand combat in my previous life, I'm no expert.

"But aren't those stats pretty high? I doubt the monsters around here will be strong enough to challenge me."

Even so, I don't want to face them.

But, to my dismay, I encountered some monsters shortly afterward. They were huge.

####

The first monster I encountered was something like a dragon but more similar to a snake. I don't remember its name.

It was extremely fast and aggressive.

As soon as it saw me, it lunged in my direction, attempting to bite me, but I jumped back to dodge its attack. The monster then twisted its long body and tried to hit me with its tail. But before I was struck, I shifted into my dragon form.

When I transformed, I became nearly twice the size of the monster.

When its tail struck me, I barely felt it, even though it was a powerful attack.

Startled by my sudden change, the monster tried to flee, slithering away, but I lunged at it and managed to catch it in my jaws. My sharp teeth pierced through its body easily.

I swung the monster through the air as my fangs tore into its flesh. It roared in pain as I ripped a part of it. It tried to escape despite being injured, but I pinned it to the ground with my massive claws and began eating it alive.

My enormous mouth worked like a weapon of war.

The monster gave its final breath and died beneath my claws.

"Bleh, but it doesn't taste good at all."

The taste of the monster was unpleasant.

But it wasn't as bad as the taste of the giant spider I faced next.
