Goddess?

After he was finally done in registering himself as an adventurer, which he choose to be a freelancer at the moment despite Misha's suggestion of him joining a strong familia, Shiro left the guild and find himself touring the city stopping from time to time by the stalls to buy food and beverages, Shiro got infected by (lancer) Artoria, (saber) Artoria, (saber) Alter Artoria and (lily) Artoria's behavior of going around town visiting every stall in the streets purchasing food personally despite occupying high rank positions.

After walking for about an hour without finding a trail of his brother, sister, aunt soul and parents souls, Shiro got tired and decided to take a seat in the middle of a road where a fountain is placed and take a breather.

Shiro was enjoying the sweets he brought when his senses picked up a commotion in the alley just up ahead.

Curious on what's going on Shiro decided to take a look, arriving at the scene where he saw three thugs surrounding and pressuring a hooded girl.

The passerby didn't bat an eye at the commotion even though it was pretty obvious that a girl is being harassed.

Shiro couldn't really blame them, what could they do, the three thugs were obviously adventurers after looking at the high quality equipment they have in them and they were normal people, it's common knowledge that only a fellow adventurer can beat another.

'Is that a god trying to conceal her identity.'

Shiro raised his eyebrows after noticing the faint divine aura leaking out from her body.

'Even I almost got fooled by her concealment methods, is it a technique or an artifact?'

Shiro couldn't help but question in fascination.

While his senses is far from comparable to his main body he still prided over it, and for a mere god of this world to have the capabilities to fool his senses even for just a bit is definitely someone not so simple.

Shiro decided not to step in after all the other party is a god, and the moment the thugs realize that they'll be running for their dearest life.

Despite the god suppressing their divine powers and is currently no different than any other mortal, no sane person would dare to bring harm or kill a god, offending a god is like asking yourself to be tortured for all of eternity.

Unfortunately, for Shiro the disguise god looked up and saw him.

'She's even able to notice me despite the fact I'm concealing myself, just who is she?"

Shrugging the back of his head Shiro jumped down the four store building his foot landing gently on the ground without making a single sound.

He took a step forward instantly appearing beside the thugs without being noticed and hit them on the necks, knocking them down unconscious.

Shiro steps forward after shoving the body of the three unconscious men to the corner.

He happened to catch a glimpse of a blue hair coming from beneath the hood.

"So may I ask why a goddess such as yourself would even bother hiding your identity."

Shiro asked condescendingly.

"How did you know?"

The goddess exclaimed stepping back a few meters in caution shock by Shiro's words as she looked at Shiro straight in the eyes with a fierce glare.

She has vibrant blue hair that reaches her waist and glistening deep aquamarine blue eyes full of wisdom.

She looks no older than 15 years old, she has smooth silky white skin, a modest height and facial features that is a perfect synchrony of both cuteness and beauty.

Goddess of wisdom and war Athena, one of the 3 famed virgin goddesses.

While she wasn't shown in the series Shiro knew her very well thanks to the knowledge he had acquired the day he stepped into this world.

Athena is an oddball even for a god, she's a shy person always wants to stay in her room and read books yet she also like to explore the outside and train herself, she's also very cautious about her surroundings but at the same time a bit careless, she love swords and magic related stuff, and just like Artoria's she's also a big foodie who love sweets the most.

She's also a battle maniac who wouldn't back down against any challenges.

She hated men to the core that she wouldn't hesitate cutting anyone ogling her yet at the same time she always fantasized herself of being defeated in a fair match, pushed down and punished by one for being a bad girl.

After recalling the information he had about her Shiro couldn't help himself from having a difficult expression which was noticed by the sharp goddess.

At first Athena thought that Shiro is just like any other wanna be hero stepping in to save a maiden in distress trying to impress a girl and making her owe him expecting her to repay it somehow, but after Shiro nonchalantly revealed her identity as a goddess despite her doing her best to conceal her divine aura and presence using a technique she had perfected her caution and interest towards the mysterious young man who has the looks that could put other gods to shame risen.

She admit, she was taken aback by his extraordinary looks, but she doesn't judge people by their looks.

She knew very well how deceiving ones looks can be.

She also purposely removes her hood trying to discern his reaction but instead of the usual charmed and lust she got from the opposite sex after laying their eyes on her, Shiro instead had this complicated expression as if he saw through her deepest dark secrets and she wasn't wrong about that assumption.

But the idea of the young man before her knowing about her deepest dark secret wasn't so bad in her point of view, she instead hoped that was the case.

She was tired trying to act different in front of the others, the only people who knew about her deepest dark secrets she could share to is Hestia, Hephaestus, Astraea and Artemis, though Artemis judge her for it and the two always bicker about it despite the fact that both were virgin goddesses.
