That time I was reborn as a warrior princess
chapter 27- unexpected visitors

In the spirit realm, Naga is watching the events through a magic mirror. She sighed in relief when she saw the exal heiress had defeated All For One in his dragon form. She knew that man was dangerous and now with him gone, the balance of power is off-balance in that world. She had no doubt Grima would take advantage of the current situation.

"Naga." A powerful voice called her.

Naga was surprised to see them in her realm. The last time she saw both the visitors it was a millennia ago, when they had that terrible battle that lasted 9 days and Naga ended up victorious. The queen of the divine dragons banished the sibling dragons to another land where they became rulers to the said land.

"It is a surprise to see you both here. What do I owe the honor of your visit, Duma and Mila?"

Duma and Mila were two divine dragons that were banished from the land of Archanea and ended up in another continent, forming the continent of Valentia.

"We want you to send both of us to the realm where the princess with the exalt blood and the fell dragon are, my lady." says Mila.

Needless to say Naga was very surprised.

"Are you aware that if I send you two there, you may never return? It is only a one way trip. I know you both were purified when that prince with Duma's brand used the second Falchion on you. But I can not risk sending you two to that realm. Grima is turning people with strong dragon blood into feral monsters. Princess Lucina does not need to face two dragons with god level powers in her current situation if you two fall into madness and become fallen dragons." says Naga to them.

"We are aware of this. We may have very different views about the current situation, Naga, but the princess with the exalt blood needs help. When you send her to the past, she and her friends were able to create a new timeline, however their original timeline is still destroyed. You were aware of this and still you choose to keep this from your subjects. You may find my ways harsh but you were cruel keeping this information from them, Naga." says Duma, frowning at her.

Duma and Nagah glared at each other. Even a millennial after their first fight, they still have very different points of views on how to deal with humans in their own ways. Mila, his young sister, begged Duma to not fight Naga. She reminded him that they were not there to fight, but to help to stop Grima once for all.

"Look, Lady Naga, the truth is, this situation is kinda our fault." says Mila. Naga looked confused.

"What do you mean? Grima was created by an insane alchemist who used the blood of a divine dragon in the process of his creation."

"And the blood the bastard used was ours." Duma growled at Naga.

Duma explained that while they were falling into madness, the alchemist used the situation to steal some of their blood to create Grima. Now Naga understood how Grima was so strong; he had the blood of Duma and Mila when the alchemist created him.

"We want to make things right." Mila says "We kept quiet all this time because you said yourself to not interfere with humankind. However you are the one breaking your own rule whenever the humans call you to do the awakening ceremony and make Archanea Falchion to evolve. We will not be quiet anymore."

Naga was quiet. Mila was right; she had interfered so many times which led to the current situation. She saw Duma holding Valentia Falchion. She remembered the day she gave the holy blade to Duma before they left the continent. She asked the siblings what they were planning to do once they arrived in the earth realm.

"We want to find Hakate there and make her fuse Valentia Falchion with Archanea Falchion into one. With your fangs becoming into one blade we can forge an ultimate weapon to end Grima's reign of terror once for all. After all It was her father, the leader of the mage dragons, who helped you to forge the blades."

Naga asked how they knew that Hakate was even alive and in the Earth Realm. Mila looked a little guilty as she explained that Hakete had told millennia ago that a threat would come out because of their interference to defeat the said threat, they needed to find her into another realm. Mila admitted she did not believe and cared about Hakate's premonitions because she never liked the mage dragon and she was the type that liked to do things in riddles and puzzles for her own entertainment.

"And knowing that brat, I bet she found a way to be alive and sane long enough for us to find her. " comments Duma, rubbing his nose looking annoyed " She is a sarcastic girl who likes playing mind games with everyone, including with her own family and friends. She's worse than any dragon falling into the degeneration!"

Naga could not help but to facepalm in frustration, muttering that was very much how Hakate would act. She acted as the leader of her mischievous dragon rebels. And she knew she was very much responsible for the disappearance of one member of her tribe millennials ago.

"Alright, I will send you to the Earth Realm. However I need you two sealing your powers into dragon stones. I can't risk you two falling into the degeneration like you did centuries ago. Your duty is to find Hakete, forge a new Falchion and help Princess Lucina to defeat Grima once and for all.

"Understood." they both bowed

With a movement of her hand, Duma and Mila felt something warm in their chests. Then, two lights came out from the chests and fell into their hands. They saw the light had formed their dragon stones.

Naga said some draconic words as she opened a dimensional gate. The dragon siblings looked at Naga for one last time before entering into the portal. The goddess wished good luck for the siblings as the portal closed.

In the tunnel, Mila and Duma were navigating through time and space. Everything was going well until a storm came up suddenly. Mila and Duma could hear an evil laughter as strong wings separated the siblings.

"Duma!" Mila cried out as a gust of wind was dragging her away.

"Mila!" Duma cried out while trying to reach for his sister.

But a dark energy pushed him away and everything became white. The last thing he saw was Mila being taken away from him.

When he opened his eyes, Duma groaned in pain as his sight was a bit blurry. When his sight returned to normal, he had noticed everything was bigger than him.

"Mila?"

Duma also had noticed that Mila was nowhere to be found. Not only Mila but his dragon stone was missed too. He cursed; this is bad! Things couldn't get worse.

"Look Mama, a puppy!" a little girl appointed him.

"Sweetheart no! That's a stray, you can't touch it." said a woman while dragging her daughter away from him.

Duma blinked confused, that little girl did just call him a puppy? And that woman called him a stray? He growled; how dare they? He was a divine dragon with the title of war father! When he started to walk off, he felt a bit odd. Then, his eyes widened in shock when he saw he had no human hand, much less dragon claws; he had a small fluffy paw.

"What?" Duma was pretty confused.

Then, he saw a display window where he could see his reflection; the fearsome war father was now a small fluffy dog. Duma's jaw dropped from shock.

"EEEH?!"

Mila opened her eyes and she noticed her brother, Duma, was not around. Another thing odd she noticed was that everything was giant in that odd room. Did she end up in a dimension of giant instead of Earth Realm?

"Oh, Miss budgie. I am happy you're alright! I thought you were gone when you hit my window hard!"

Mila blinked, is that boy a human? But he was so huge. And his eyes were a bit odd. Then she noticed there was a mirror behind the boy and she was shocked when she saw her own reflection; she was a small green budgerigar. Her reaction? She fainted from shock.

"Miss Budgie!"

Duma usually is not the type to be in panic but right now, he is. Mila is nowhere to be found, he is somehow a dog and he lost his dragon stone. He used his seal on his paw and he sighs in relief to see that Valentia Falchion is still with him.

"Ok, let's see the situation; I think the important thing to do is to find the princess with Archanea Falchion. I am sure wherever Mila is, she will think the same idea." he thinks as he puts Valentia Falchion back to the seal.

Then, he felt the presence of dragons. And from their energy they are starting on the progress of degeneration. Duma followed the presence and he found a group of tree people. Duma could feel one of them had the blood of ice dragons.

"Natsuo-san, we got the reports that the child with the divine dragon's blood is in the yakuza's territory."

"Yakuza? I am surprised they still exist." Comments the white haired young man. " But not for long if they are in our way. The child is important for Grima-sama's health."

Grima gasps; did he say Grima? The former god of war growls in frustration; he knows finding the princess with Archanea Falchion and Mila are important but the child that white haired man had mentioned seems to be much more important at the moment. He decides to follow those people while hiding his presence.

At his office, Nedzu was receiving a visit. He was surprised that a young doctor was visiting his school.

"Sorry for making an appointment so suddenly." says the doctor in a very soft voice

"Not at all." says Nedzu while offering a cup of tea to the doctor. "I am just curious, why, a young doctor like you, is interested in our school?"

"You see, after seeing the battle of Kamino on Tv, I saw something that I would never have imagined seeing again." comments the doctor, quietly "Tell me, that boy, Bakugou Katsuki-kun, is a relative of Professor Byleth?"

Nedzu splitted his tea like a gaiser splitting hot water from the group. The doctor looked a bit shocked by this act. He coughed a bit before looking at the doctor with a suspicious look.

"What did you say your name was?" Nedzu asks, frowning at the doctor.

The young doctor sighs before looking at the beast man.

"Many people know me as Doctor Aono Mari. But my real name is Marianne. Marianne von Edmund from the Leicester Alliance ."

End of the chapter

Hey guys, are you surprised to see Mila and Duma in the story? While I admit that Shadows of Valentia is not my favorite Fire Emblem game, however I love Duma and Mila! I think they are cooler than Naga and they will help our heroes in their quest to defeat Grima.

Marianne is also into the story. She will be very important for Bakugou's development as a character.

For those who are not familiar with Duma and Mila; they are the characters of the Fire Emblem game Shadows of Valentia, a remake of fire emblem gaiden. In the story, they become gods of the continent of Valentia with Duma ruling the north while Mila ruling the south. In the game, it is revealed that Naga gave Duma Valentia Falchion before their exile; she knew that Duma and Mila would fall into madness since they sealed their power in dragon stones . Alm; the protagonist of the game, used the sword to slay Duma, freeing him from his corrupted form.

The game also reveals Grima's origins. The Alchemist used some blood of a divine dragon to create him, however the game never revealed, explicitly, which dragon he took the blood from. Most people think it was from Naga but I believe it was from Mila and Duma, which explain the reason why Grima is so powerful.

And I want to apologize to everyone for the delay of the story. I have no excuse but I promised we will have updates more often.

Don't forget to leave your reviews. They make me write more and more.

Next Chapter: Lucina visits Stain at Tartarus. Bakugou has a heart to heart chat with Marianne.
