(Story will be narrated on Hikaru's POV)

Takagi High School
Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, Japan.
January 20th, 2023.
11:00 ZULU.

Everything started on January 20th, 2023.

It was an usual friday at first, on school.

I was at first with one of my childhood friends, known as Kenji Minamoto, talking with him about our things during a 30-minute-break, after eating my school breakfast of course.

Hikaru: Hey there, Kenji!

Kenji: Ayo, Hikaru! How it's going with your stuff?

Hikaru: Fine for now, i haven't got news on Naga for quite a while, last time she told me she detected strange activity on our world, but she had to collect more intel and investigate more.

Kenji: Maybe Naga is still collecting intel and investigating, who knows?

Hikaru: Yeah, anyway... How it's going for you?

Kenji: Pretty fine as well, my 5th career album, and my 8th overall is releasing today.

Hikaru: Wow, really?

Kenji: Yeah!

Hikaru: How did you call it anyway? You haven't told me the name yet.

Kenji: Recovery, it's a sequel to my Relapse Album, which was my 4th career album and the 6th overall.

Hikaru: Wow.

Kenji: Also, next time you see Naga, say hi to her from my part.

Hikaru: I will.

Suddenly, the bell rang.

Hikaru: Anyway, let's head back to classes, shall we?

Kenji: Yeah.

I went back to classes along with Kenji, he was known as Kenjiblade in the music industry, and he had some good covers, although he also was an expert in composing soundtracks and producing songs.

Later that same day...

Sugiura's Residence

Hachioji, Tokyo, Japan.

17:30.

I went back home after working on my part-time job in the Coffee Shop, i had won 8000 Yen during my work journey today as i got promoted.

Once at my adoptive family residence in Hachioji, near the 23 wards of Tokyo, i said hi to my adoptive family, such as my mother and sisters.

Akira: Hikaru-kun, you're back! How did school and work go?

Hikaru: Fine on both, just as usual, i've got promoted so i got an extra pay bonus.

Sofy: Congratulations, Hi-chan.

Hikaru: Thank you, Sofy.

I did some homework i had at first and later went on to watch the news.

NHK Reporter: We're interrupting this broadcast for breaking news! A mass murder case explodes around major wards and cities in Tokyo, reports say the victims died on gunshots, slash wounds and several injuries, the police investigation is still ongoing and advises people of being careful and keep safe.

However, when watching the news, i felt a strong familiar presence somewhere in my house

Hikaru: Hold on a sec... That presence...

I searched around just to find it in my bedroom.

Hikaru: In my bedroom?

I locked the door when entering my bedroom.

Hikaru: Hello, anyone in there?

Suddenly, a bright and shining green light appeared in front of me, covering my eyes before it died and a figure appeared from it, my sight came back, and i was shocked to see the figure, which was Naga.

Hikaru: Gods! Naga is that you?!

Naga: Of course it is, Hikaru!

She smiled at me.

Naga: How was your day, Hikaru?

Hikaru: It's been fine, but i've felt missing with something, Naga, I miss my old companions from the other world, it feels sad you know.

Naga: They miss you too, Hikaru, in fact, they would like to visit your place.

Hikaru: Really?! Wow! Anyway, Naga, what brings you here in my world?

I wanted to know the intentions of the Ruler Of The Dragons coming into my world.

Naga: Well, as you have seen, there are many incidents that are killing innocent people around Tokyo, it's not manmade killings, also, they have magic.

Shocked to hear about it.

Hikaru: Is there anything we can do to stop it?

Naga: Yes, it is, starting today, your adventure will begin, i will bestow you a new weapon, as well as a new way to fight with your older companions.

White wavy energy gathered around to form a ball and a small burst of energy revealing a gun.

I grabbed it.

Naga: This is Breidablik.

Hikaru: Breidablik?

Naga: Breidablik is a handgun that can summon your allies into battle, also, they come with their Heroes Card, at the same time, it can fire energy blasts directly at your enemies.

Then, the heroes cards appeared between Naga and me.

Naga: These cards contain the friends and allies you made in the other world, their place of origin are differenced by their card color, which can be Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Violet, Pink, Black, White and Brown.

I started to hear my old allies voice in my mind, calling for me, i felt overjoyed mixed with some tears.

Hikaru: No way...

As the voices dissipated in my mind, it formed into 18 attachable deck boxes in a belt, 2 of each color.

Hikaru: Wow! So, that means i can summon my old companions here in this world?!

Naga: Yes, they miss you so much, be it for your battles or for fun, they will have modern weapons and equipment once you summon them, but also, be careful on how to use it.

Hikaru: Okay, i will give it a try, may i?

Naga agreed with the idea.

I selected the Red deck, which turned out to be for Archanea and Valentia allies.

I browsed around.

Hikaru: Wow!

Until i found a card which caught my interest.

Hikaru: Nyna, i remember Nyna, she was heartbroken due to his loveless marriage with Hardin and she couldn't find Camus who is Zeke now in Valentia and he's with Tatiana now, i hope that she is okay.

Naga instructed me on how to summon.

Naga: You can summon it, Hikaru, first insert the card on Breidablik, on the slot above the barrel and then shoot it.

I inserted the card into the Breidablik, hearing an stand-by loop sound.

Hikaru: That's a stand-by loop, anyway, here it goes.

I fired and a ball of red energy that the gun unleashed on stopped at a short distance, it glowed brighter until it revealed Nyna, she was dressed in a modern casual clothing set and confused about where he was.

Nyna: Where am i?

Hikaru: In my world, Nyna.

Nyna: That voice... No way, it can't be...

Surprised, she turned around to see myself and Naga.

Hikaru: Hello, Nyna, it's been a long time, isn't it?

Nyna: Hikaru!

She hugged me and i hugged her back.

Hikaru: You've been surprised, don't you?

Nyna: I missed you so much... You've grown up a lot...

She stopped hugging me as she noticed Naga.

Nyna: Naga!

Nyna kneeled in front of her.

Nyna: It's an honor to see you again, but, what are you doing in Hikaru's world?

Naga: Well, as you may see, Hikaru is about to face old and new enemies in his world... I'm here to watch over him as well as guide him.

Shortly after, Nyna was engulfed for a second in a white light before she returned.

Nyna: What is this?

Naga: With the power of his Breidablik, the heroes that are summoned for the first time receive knowledge of his world.

Hikaru: Wait, that means they knew everything about my world as i summon them here?

Naga: Exactly, the more you summon, the more experience you'll win, you know already what to do when it comes to summoning Hikaru.

Nyna: Also, so this is what women wear in modern day? It feels so comfortable and light.

She had a blue shirt and skirt, as well as white shoes.

Suddenly, someone knocked at my door, it was Akira.

Akira: Hikaru, Hikaru... Are you there? Who are you talking to?

Hikaru: Can i?

They agreed, although Nyna was a bit confused.

I unlocked the door, and then opened it, Akira and my sisters noticed Naga and Nyna.

Akira: Naga!

Sofy: And who is that girl?

I introduced Nyna.

Hikaru: Her name is Nyna, she's the former princess and queen of Archanea.

Akira: Oh, nice to meet you Nyna, Hikaru told me about you, sorry about your experience.

Naga: Anyway, for now i will no longer be in here, Hikaru, your journey begins here, i hope you're ready, also, it's nice to see your family again, goodbye.

Naga disappeared then.

Nyna: Anyway, nice to meet you all, i've heard of Hikaru's traumatic experience as a young boy.

Akira: Yeah, i decided to care for him after he almost died in an accident along with his family.

Later during next day...

January 21st, 2023.

04:27 ZULU.

I was on my bed, Nyna was hugging me while sleeping, i had an idea, seeing she was on his interior clothes.

Hikaru: Nyna, wake up...

She groaned and opened her eyes.

Nyna: Morning, Hikaru... It's so early yet...

Hikaru: Come on, i will show you something i want you to see.

Outside my room, we went downstairs until reaching an empty wall in the living room, revealing a door.

Nyna: Where did that door come from?

Hikaru: It was a gift from Naga, come on, let's get inside now, get ready for the surprise.

Through the door, we were on a hallway.

Nyna: Where are we?

Hikaru: Follow me, let's go outside there.

Once downstairs, i showed her the outside view of my mansion, which was on an island with a tropical beach.

Nyna: Wow, this place is amazing!

Hikaru: Indeed, It is! It's beautiful!

She was worried about her outfit, since she felt someone was watching her.

Hikaru: Don't worry, Nyna, Naga put invisibility magic on the island so no one...

Nyna: Your house, it's huge, unlike the castle...

Hikaru: It was a gift from my long-thought-to-be-dead biological mom and dad.

Nyna: Biological mom and dad?

I told her the truth about me.

Hikaru: My real family name is Kanzaki, not Sugiura, my mom and dad, as well as my two older siblings, died when i was aged 12 in a sudden ambush, but luckily, Akira and Saeko saved me and i changed my family name to Sugiura to keep myself safe from assailants.

Nyna: Hikaru, i'm sorry for what i've asked you!

Nyna hugged me.

Hikaru: It's okay... Also, you're heartbroken, i can give you a fresh start here in my world, will you accept?

Nyna: Sure.
