35 Survivors 1 | Emma Flores | Goddess Brigid

--- I am Emma Flores a wandering mage.

--- I am together with my Goddess Brigid, we were the only once left in our Familia after being slaughter by a group of ferocious beast in an unfortunate encounter.

--- My fellow Familia members sacrifice themselves in order to save their goddess and me, a new member of the Familia, saying things like I am too young to die and whatnot.

--- I just joined the Familia six month ago, and this already happened.

--- Even though I am not too closed to them, having people who took care of me just die sacrificing themselves for my sake left a bitter taste in my fragile heart.

--- I might not be able to continue my journey if it wasn't for my goddess guidance that brought me back to the light with her few simple and gentle words that touch my heart.

--- It's been a couple of months since that had happened yet even now, we have still yet to overcome our trauma and sadness after loosing everyone.

--- I decided to become an adventurer in search for my lost sister who was said to have gone to the dungeon city of Orario, the center most hub of the continent of Eden.

--- On our journey we spotted a tick black smoke that reached the sky, my goddess and I immediately rushed to the area, witnessing thousands of goblins slaughtering everyone in sight.

--- Even though I am alone for some reason I am not afraid, the same goes for my goddess as she supported me from behind using 0.10% of her divinity to buff me.

--- The gods couldn't really exert their power beyond the threshold of 0.99% or the world would eject them back to the heavenly realm, they are also limited in reserves to only 0.99% of their original.

--- But this small percentage is enough to empower me, giving me the power to fight back and saved a few people.

--- I couldn't really save everyone, even with the help of my goddess, the difference in power and numbers is too wide apart that's it's laughable.

--- Just as I am beginning to lost hope, a goblin clearly stronger than the others made its appearance pouncing straight at me trying to kill me.

--- My barrier couldn't hold on, my attack was ineffective, it's only a matter of time before I made a mistake that could cost my life.

--- Accepting my fate, the bloody hammer about to slammed onto me time seemed to have frozen, the hammer stopped a meter before my face.

--- My goddess quickly pulled my body back, the time freeze seems to be just my imagination, or so I thought.

--- Time really did seem to have frozen for the goblin only.

"Look to the sky."

--- My goddess pointed out, I did as she says, there I saw a beautifully handsome cute boy slowly descending like a god.

--- Magic circles emanating an unbelievable amount of energy that gave me the shivers circled him.

--- The next instant numerous light javelins emerge out of thin air, releasing a strong murderous aura that pressured the very atmosphere.

--- Before I could even react, the javelins pierced through the goblins body, instantly killing all of them in the process.

--- Seeing goblins terrorizing them dissipating, the surrounding survivors couldn't help but let out sighs of relief.

--- Suddenly, out of thin air a shadowy figure emerge, I quickly moved shielding my goddess.

"You don't need to be on guard, little girl, you did a good job protecting the citizens. I am just here to check the situation nothing more nothing less."

Hassan assured Emma, his tone gentle but hoarse.

"Emma it's ok he meant no harm, he is telling the truth."

Goddess Brigid supported Hassan in assuring Emma.

No one could lie in front of a god, so Emma complied, lowering her hand, erasing the mana bullet that been prepared.

Noticing Goddess Brigid's unique aura signature, Hassan politely bowed.

"Oh, pardon my rudeness, good evening goddess."

"There's no need for formalities, please help the survivors, just as you claimed."

"Um, a forgot, I really need to get my priorities straight."

Hassan muttered in a low voice, sighing.

"The injured ones, please gather here, I will be giving a free treatment."

Seeing that everyone is cautious of him Hassan couldn't help chuckling before slowly removing his helmet revealing his handsome face.

Hassan is a handsome man in his early thirties, he has a black hair and black eyes, his origin is from the far east.

After removing his helmet, the wary people began to slowly approach him.

The ladies were the one to rush first, and it seems they were in a race as they began competing with each other on whose going to reach him first.

Previously Hassan wouldn't dare show his face, as an assassin revealing one's identity is no different that killing one's self, but after receiving Kanzen's blessing and being treated as a person more than a weapon Hassan slowly opened up to everyone.

He even began having admirers in the clan, mostly coming from the middle age group of woman.

Hassan is rank 3rd in the most sought after men in the clan.

No.1 is Kanzen obviously while the second place belong to Jerome, a half elf who loves reading book and a genius in magic.

Hassan was quickly surrounded by the ladies in all sides, he couldn't help shrugging the back of his head, being influenced by his master who kept doing the same thing over and over.

"Everyone, please calm down, I need to treat the critically wounded first, please give way, time is of the essence here."

Snapping out from their stupor, the woman surrounding Hassan felt ashamed as they quickly distance themselves, giving way to the critically injured.

He opened up a dimensional space put in strange glasses as he began examining the patient before him.

"His been poisoned by a purple viper venom."

Hassan muttered in a serious expression.

"The goblins used poison in their attack, it's hopeless, there's no known cure for such venom in this small village."

Emma chimed-in, shaking her head.

"No, please save my father, I will do everything, please save my father, he is the only family I had left."

A young blonde girl the child of the patient grabbed Hassan's had begging and crying.

"Hassan you're making another girl cry."

Sebastian made his appearance, around him were more than a dozen people holding him tightly.

"Hahaha, don't joke around like that, Sebastian-dono."

The twisted minded girl testing Sebastian earlier glanced at Hassan for a moment, nodding inwardly.

--- He isn't the one either. Just who are these people, why are they all handsome guys.

"Please help my father."

"Oops! Sorry about that, I forgot for a moment."

Hassan apologize before pulling out a bottle of pure white liquid from his dimensional space.

--- This should do the job.

He poured the pure white straight to the man's wounded part, a second after he did so the venom that's clearly visible from the outside slowly vanished the same goes for the injuries the man sustained.

Goddess Brigid observing from the side assisting in calming the crying children couldn't help but stood up in surprised.
