Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System

--AN: Bonus Chapter 5/14--

When Yana passed through the stone gates, she was met with not a bloody landscape but a lush green one instead. It was a huge contrast to that of the outside world. On the lush green lawn was a tall open building with the name Socks on it. In front was a large dish with a bone sticking out of it. 

Yana looked around, and when she did not detect anything out of place, she patted the three headed dog on the head to let her down. When her bare feet that were covered in crusted blood touched the soft grass, a soft smile formed on her lips. It had been a long time since she had seen anything so green in a long time. She squatted down and ran her hands through the grass blades. If it was not for the blood splattered all over her, this would have been a beautiful scene. 

"Hmmm? To think someone was able to walk right into this place." A voice came from behind Yana, causing her to spin around. But what she saw completely took her by surprise.

"A little boy?" Yana mumbled. Standing in front of her was a young boy. He looked no more than five or six. 

"Hah! Yeah, that would be your first reaction." The little boy let out a sigh. "I never wished to be stuck in this form. Do you know how hard it was to rule over this plane for so long in this form? It got to the point that I decided to just set up this damn trial, to let someone else take over!" The little boy's cheeks puffed out as he said this.

Yana giggled and stood up. She walked over to the young boy, bent down, and picked him up. "You! What are you doing!?" 

The young boy was stunned. He did not know why this woman was picking him up out of nowhere! Yana held the young boy in her arms and, without a word, walked towards the palace. The young boy was still kicking and screaming. "Let me down! How dare you treat this god this way! Do not make me hurt yo… Ouch!" 

Yana flicked the young boy's forehead and glared at him. "Be a good boy and behave." 

The young boy held his forehead and stared at the strange woman in disbelief. He was tens of thousands of years old! Why was she treating him like a child!? But that look in her eyes made him keep his mouth shut. For some reason, he could no longer kick up a fuss. Seeing how the young boy calmed down, Yana nodded in approval and walked right into the palace as if she owned the place.

The palace itself felt empty. This was Yana's first impression of this place. That was because it was just that. It was empty of any objects except the pillars that held up the ceiling. Yana couldn't help but frown, thinking that such a young boy lived in such an empty place. "Where are your parents?"

Yana's question made the young boy freeze. He was starting to wonder if his ears were broken. He was not sure he had heard her correctly. "Ummm… My what?"

"Your parents. Where are your parents?" Yana asked again.

"My parents… My parents!? What parents? I do not have any parents!" He was so old, how would he remember his parents!? 

Hearing the boy's words made Yana frown. She hugged the boy tightly in her arms, pressing his face right into her chest. "Then I will be your Mama. So call me Mama from now on, okay little Cal?"

"Ma…. Ma…. Ma… Mama!? Who the hell do you want to call you ma… Ouch!" Little Cal rubbed his head as he looked at Yana, who was glaring back at him. Her fingers position to do a third forehead click. 

"Call me, Mama!"  Yana said sternly. 

The look in her eyes was sharp as if you did not obey, she would make you pay. Little Cal lowered his head and gritted his teeth as he mumbled: "Mama..."

"That's much better!" Yana said with a satisfied nod. She still did not realize that the little boy she was forcing to call her Mama was older than her open mother by many tens of thousands of years. Little Cal's face was so red with shame that he wished he could find a hole to hide in. He would rather deal with the ignorant fools that always talk about his looks than this stupid woman who mistook him for an actual little boy. However, he did not know why but when he looked into the girl's pure, sincere eyes, he felt a lot of fear when she acted angry. 

He could imagine the looks of his old friends' faces if they saw him at this time.  They would be surprised for a long while, maybe even speechless, but as soon as they came back to their senses, they would burst out laughing. He knew there was now no going back after he actually called her Mama. His life was ruined. He who had walked the fields of blood for so long, killed countless fools was now at the mercy of a young woman and forced to call her Mama.  This was a shame he would never be able to live down.

In Eden, a certain old man spat out his tea as he looked at the water screen.  "Hahahahaha! To think that old bastard was being toyed with by that little girl. He reached godhood so early that he was never able to grow any more than he has, and now he is being treated as an adopted son! Hahahaha! I knew She could easily become the goddess of war, but this… This is just too much!" 

At first, the old man was surprised at the actions of the cerberus. He never thought it would take a licking to the little girl instead of attacking her. From there, she passed the trials easily. Now his sides hurt from laughing too hard! This whole situation was just too much! "Wait until the next meeting of the gods. Hoho… Hahahaha! I must tell the others.. They will love this."
