In the mortal world, Xue Chen met the handsome mixed-race boy, Jian Lansi, and the two frequently encountered troublemaking monsters. Jian Lansi protected Xue Chen behind him, “Don’t be afraid! I am the descendant of the Dragon Knights! I have the power to slay dragons, I will protect you!” Xue Chen calmly pushed Jian Lansi away and took off on the spot, “Sorry, I am a dragon.” As a relatively outstanding dragon in the modern era, his strength didn’t allow him to keep a low profile. Xue Chen: “Look at me, I’ll kill a monster with one punch.” Jian Lansi: “…..?” Cultivators: ???? — After a while, a dragon grew up in the world and directly rose to the position of Dragon King.

My Thoughts on After Graduation, I Became the Dragon King
"After Graduation, I Became the Dragon King" grabbed my attention with its quirky title, and I'm happy to report it delivered a fun, lighthearted read. This novel blends xuanhuan elements with a modern slice-of-life setting, creating a truly unique and entertaining experience. I found myself chuckling throughout, and it was a story I genuinely looked forward to picking up.
First Impressions
The premise is simple: a powerful dragon loses his abilities and finds himself in the human world, having to navigate the challenges of modern life, like writing a thesis! This fish-out-of-water scenario immediately hooked me, and the blend of fantasy with everyday struggles felt fresh and humorous. The story quickly establishes a central mystery regarding the MC's attack and loss of power.
What Works Well
The comedy is definitely a strong point. The protagonist's antics and his exasperation with the mundane aspects of human society are consistently amusing. I particularly enjoyed how the author integrated mythological creatures and fantasy elements into the modern world in a playful way. The plot moves at a good pace, resolving conflicts quickly and efficiently, which keeps the story engaging. The action scenes were well-executed, and the cases the MC and ML solve together are intriguing. The MC is definitely the star, his personality carrying the story forward.
Areas of Concern
While I thoroughly enjoyed the story, I do agree that the romance could have been more developed. The connection between the MC and ML is cute, but it felt like a missed opportunity to delve deeper into their relationship. The ML sometimes felt underdeveloped, almost like a supporting character rather than a fully realized partner. He's handsome and supposedly powerful, but often finds himself being protected by the MC. Some found the ending a bit too neatly tied up, with everything circling back to the beginning.
Final Verdict
Despite some minor shortcomings, "After Graduation, I Became the Dragon King" is a highly enjoyable read. If you're looking for a lighthearted, comedic fantasy with a unique premise, this novel is definitely worth checking out. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys stories with dragons, supernatural mysteries, and a touch of romance. I'm giving it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
