Reincarnated as a dragon’s egg ～Lets aim to be the strongest～ - Chapter 2

Egg eating Dark Worms

I regain my consciousness and now is the second day.
Also I finally came to understand that this forest that i was in, was a dangerous forest full of monsters.
Monsters like, some black crocodile looking thing and other giant insects which i dislike.

This place probably isn't Japan.
This place probably is Africa.
I always knew that Africa had black crocodiles, giant insects, walking eggs, and some kind of bear with 4 arms.
I should have paid a more attention to things outside of Japan.
That way i could have known that there was such a dangerous country out there... I really want to cry right now.

By the way, this day I got the [Hunger Resistance] and [Poison Resistance] skills.
Because of a mushroom that i eat earlier my stomach hurts, it really hurts.
Well, at least i understand that it won’t be dangerous if i just have it in my hand.

Anyways, let’s test the [Roll] Skill.
As if by instinct, i just rolled over to the side.
[Roll] Skill leveled up to level 2.
I rolled from a high place which ended up with me falling and it dealt quite the amount of damage to me, [Fall Resistance] Skill level up to level 2.
I almost killed myself.

Naa, I’m tired, God’s Voice-chan...
I want to go back home, i want to take a bath, i want to eat chips...

[Special Skill [God’s Voice: Lv1] is unable to explain.]

Please, let’s have a conversation.

I feel like I’m going to die from loneliness.
I’m about to start crying.

[Resistance Skill [Solitude Resistance: Lv1] was acquired.]

I’m sorry, i don’t think that that will be necessary.
Your consideration makes me happy though, but it isn't what I’m looking for.
I want the warmth of another person...

I’m not a man who can endure being alone, I don’t want to become a lonely man.
I don’t need to be the strong, i just want to keep living as a human who has recognized his weakness...

Human life huh, something like being born from an egg means that i will change.
Which reminds me, when did i come here?
I don’t seem to remember. I do recall that I’m Japanese, and i still have my common knowledge which tells me that monsters shouldn't exist.
I don’t quite remember if i was a man or a woman, but probably a man if i think about it.

Was i abducted and brought to Africa?

Then, i wonder who is God’s Voice-chan?

[Title Skill [Straight Fool: Lv1] was acquired.]

... I wish you would stop with those kind of answers.
Fine, you just hurt my feelings

Anyways let’s confirm my status.

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Ahh, the Clutz skills also leveled up.
I recalled something that I didn’t want to remember.
Really, how could this skill be helpful.

It seems that HP can be recovered by just lying down.
Both of this days, I've paid a lot of attention in order to not get hurt and end up dying because of that.

I have been avoiding monsters, eating small fruits that fall from the trees and little insects, and drinking the spring’s water.

Though I didn't want to, it was inevitable.
I thought I was going to die from hunger.
Even I think that giving up after two days is fast.
It can't be helped. Compared to when I was a human the feeling of hunger is much stronger.

*This set of sentences actually confused me for a while, i still tried my best but i ain't so sure about them.
 

I’m still in my growth period.

I mean, I’m still an egg.

Even if my level goes up... Will i be able to fight?
I don’t think i would be able to hit a monster.

Since I’m an egg.
When will i hatch?
God’s voice said that i was a dragon’s egg, shouldn't there any feeling that I’m growing?
Maybe it won’t happen unless I don’t level up?
I need to defeat monsters?

That’s impossible!, I’m just an egg!
Nest?, didn’t I fall from my nest?

Didn’t I fall from a tree?, could it possibly be that it was the dragon’s nest?
It could be that there is something that stimulates my growth

Ah, danger.
There are some grotesque caterpillars at the base of the tree.
This discovery was quite late.(考え事してたせいで発見が遅れた。)

That thing’s name is Dark Worm
When I fell down here, they began to chase me.
Naturally, I was able to escape.

With the exception of the dark worm, other monsters just seem to ignore me.
They just seem to overlook me.

It could be that they think that if they try to attack me the parent dragon will come forth to protect me, now that I think about it God’s Voice said something like that on the first day.

But, that fellow always attacks me.

Let’s check the Dark Worm status, [Status inspection] I said in my mind.

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Dangerous, really dangerous.
His overall status is better than mine.
My agility is slightly better than his, but for now I should escape from here.

Now I know why that guy was so obstinately aiming for me, it’s because of that strange Title Skill that he has.
[Egg Eater: Lv1]

It really probably is because of that.
What I came to understand was that, that guy seems to know the taste of an egg.
An agreement is impossible. It would be inadvisable to communicate with that thing.

It seems like, right now, the Dark Worm somehow lost some HP.
If I wait for it to fall asleep, will I be able to finish him off?
His level is higher than mine, but my defense is a bit higher than his.
If I receive one attack I would be out, but I think that I should be able to win if I use my advantage in agility well.

Alright let’s do this.
I’m going to beat that guy down, so I can level up in order to hatch. And bring this egg life to an end.
