10 Those who watch

(Author note: tbh I'm lazy af so the layout of dialogue will be slightly different)

Continuing his mentally draining training, Draig kept thinking of how this wasn't as bad as he expected it to be. In his fragmented memories, Draig was constantly physically and mentally abused by everyone around him. He had lived a life where his father constantly called him a disappointment. His father thought never did such a thing, in fact his mother ignored and avoided any acknowledgment of Draig's existence which cut him much deeper.

Broad noticed Draig lost in thought and felt shocked to the core, he also felt an extreme fear and threat that mysteriously disappeared.

Broad-"[What was that!? I felt like I was about to die!! Anyway what is this monster!! He's lost in thought but still absorbs all my advice, hell he isn't even flinching at my insults that caused literal veterans of war to cry!] Oi!! Fledgling what are you doing spacing out, Huh?!!!"

Draig was surprised when he heard Broad, and decided to shelf his thoughts to later.

Draig-"Ah, sorry instructor Broad! I was just reminiscing a little."

Broad-"Well stop reminiscing on the middle of training, unless you want to find yourself reminiscing while you get eaten by a goblin!!!"

Deciding to focus on his taijutsu again while keeping a certain green jumpsuit wearing over enthusiastic ninja, Draig continued being physically pushed to the limit.

6 hours after Draig began training, Broad decided that they would stop. Falling onto the floor while panting, Draig wondered when was the last time that he felt this tired. Broad then picked Draig up by his shirt like a sack of potatoes, and began carrying him out of the area while laughing.

Broad-"Kid, you have guts! So where do you plan to stay from now on?"

Draig-"Thank you Instructor Broad. I was planning to look for an inn today but seeing that I have to be carried back I don't think I will be able to today. Well I'll manage a way."

Broad-"[Hmm? Looks like this kid is starting to recover. Anyway I doubt that he's aware of his abnormal learning speed so I should probably keep that a secret, can't have him getting cocky so soon. But other than that what does he mean by "manage"] Boy what do you mean 'manage'?"

Draig-"Well after I heal any adventurers that want healing I was planning to go and look for an inn, but I doubt that I'll be able to walk around by then so I'll probably just climb onto the roof of the guild and sleep there later."

They talked as Broad continued carrying Draig up the stairs.

Broad-"WHAT!? No you are not sleeping on the roof. How about this, I like your attitude so the guild will provide you with a room and food. We'll even throw in some old clothes since I'm sure I've seen you wear that for the past couple of days."

Draig-"Really? Thank you so much!"

Draig then gave a dazzling smile that caused Broad to feel horrible for how hard he pushed him during training.

The whole guild heard Draig and Broad's talk and a few saw them reach the top of the stairs, they all saw the aura of an angel radiating off of Draig. Deciding in their hearts to try and avoid treating him with bias like the other healers.

Draig-"Um, Instructor Broad? Can you put me down on that table over there? I want to try and do my part of the request, plus I'll be able to raise the level of my magic and skills."

Nodding to Draig, Broad placed him faced up on a table in the corner and told the adventurers present to spread the word to those that weren't there right now about Draig healing for free. Draig lying on the table, watched as multiple scary looking men walked over to him and struggled to stretch his arm out towards them. When he finally got his hand to face the people walking towards him, Draig looked to them with a smile and asked them nicely to line up. The adventurers feeling ashamed for deciding to scare the young healer, decided to line up quietly and hold out their injured limbs.

------------------------------

During this event in the god's realm, a certain ancient goddess was watching and cheering a young healer.

Gaia looking at Draig being pushed to his limits, almost cursed Broad (who felt the reaper calling for him for a second) for treating him so harshly. Just as she reached her limit she heard a very familiar disrespectful voice come from behind her.

???-"Gaia you old hag, what do you think you're doing?"

Turning back, Gaia looked at her fellow ancient god in fury.

Gaia-"Ouranos you disrespectful little shit, is that a way to address your fellow ancient goddess and wife?"

Ouranos-"Can you not hear yourself speak? Anyway what did this mortal from Galadria do to incur your divine wrath oh great ancient goddess?"

Gaia-"Hmph! This man is treating my adorable son harshly, so I decided to treat him harshly!"

Ouranos-"Oh! So that's where that little runt went! I was wondering where Swartal went."

Gaia-"Wait what do you mean? Why do you know Al? Depending on your answer there will be war!"

Ouranos-"Woah! Calm down Gaia! First you know that a planet can not beat space itself, second I got curious since you kept manifesting in the mortal realm so I went to check. Plus I've taken a liking go the kid too!"

Gaia-"What the great and mighty sky father himself, took a liking to a mere mortal?"

Ouranos-"I could live without the sarcasm Gaia, but yes. A couple days after I noticed your affection towards him, *whisper* and your constant nagging about a cute adopted child *whisper* I decided to meet him myself. So I asked Kronos to freeze time for a couple days and met him."

Gaia-"Kronos did what! Oh wait till I get my hands on that little fuck, he will regret ever being born!"

Ouranos-[Kronos, I'm sorry my child. Your mother is out for your blood now.]

Off in a remote part of the god's realm Kronos felt a shiver run down his spine and began sneezing.

Kronos-"Oh no! Please just be a cold! Please just be a cold! Please just be a cold!"

Kronos kept praying to something as he looked towards the direction he felt the chill come from.
