《I'm a hero? Nope, familiar》Chapter 2. The non-serious goddess?

Still spinning the scythe around her finger, she started to speak.
"Well, since everyone is here.... Why are you all looking at me like that and slowly backing away?"
To which we all gave her a blank look and pointed at her scythe.
"Pfft Ahahaha, Woops. Sorry, bad habit." Said the girl, then with a great amount of dexterity, changed the direction the scythe was spinning, grabbed it, stopping the spin, then spun it into the opposite direction, all the while it was shrinking until it disappeared out of existence. Everyone except for the three children in the room were so shocked they couldn't speak.
Then, the three kids started shooting out machine gun fast questions and saying how cool that was.
"how'd you do that?" "can you teach us that trick?" "So cool!" Things like that they said excitedly with big round puppy dog eyes.
"Aw so cute" the girl who was spinning a scythe earlier said. I guess she has a soft spot for kids?
why would those kids want to do that? And why the heck am I so calm? I should be freaking out right now.
" *ahem* Anyways I should probably tell you all why I gathered you here..." she started to say, but was interrupted by a man in what seemed like an armor looking outfit....
What was that from...?
...OH, I know, it's a kendo uniform.
Well I should stop zoning out and listen to what's going on.
" ....you kidnapping us and why am I so calm, it almost feels forced" finished the kendo man. What? I don't know his name, so that's what I'm calling him.
"Before you so rudely interrupted, I was going to explain that. The reason why I, heh, summoned you, that's the easiest way to explain it, is that I was gathering all the individuals who can see mana. Congratulations, you all get to go to another world and play hero, Yayyyy."

She said in a sing-song voice like she wasn't taking it serious at all.
Um.... Wow, that wasn't what I was expecting at all.... Then again, what was I expecting?
"That doesn't explain why we are so calm... And not freaking out..."
I mutter thinking no one would hear me.
"Yes you are quite correct, I didn't say that did I?" She says looking directly at me, making me shiver with an unpleasant feeling going through me. She did say she "summoned" us, but what does that entail?
She smirked seeing my reaction, then continued,
"As he so kindly pointed, all of you are what you would call, unnaturally calm, especially in front of a being like myself. The reason for this is because me and the others cast a veil of calm over this building. I don't want to talk a quivering pile of people now do I? That would defeat the purpose."
"That's a load of bullshit! Forcing us to be calm? Who do you think you are?!" Almost yelling a woman, who looked very familiar, said. Ah, it's the one who told me to bug someone else. Is bullshit her favorite word...? Hmm.
" I am, who I am" said the girl sitting at the front. All I Saw was the girl glare as suddenly, what I could only explain as the air around me chilling, feeling like a knife was being pressed into each of my vital points, and my weight gaining what felt like two tons was pressing on me. Just as suddenly as it happened, it was gone and the woman who likes to say bullshit collapsed into a quivering mess.
"Sheesh, release a little killing intent and she was ruined. Can't even use her now."
She muttered, then proceeded to snap her fingers, and the woman blinked out of existence. Seeing our horrified faces, the girl sighed and said,

"Don't worry I just sent her to a hospital." I don't think that was the problem you terrifying girl!
I don't believe in such things such as gods but this girl is starting to change that, so scary!
" *sigh* what a waste of time, I dislike mortals like that."
Ok, definitely not human, and holy shit, how am I not pissing myself.
...Ah right, veil of calm.
" ...anyways, that wasn't how I wanted to start that, but let's go to my place and get you all ready for the summon." She then proceeded to lazily snap her fingers, and everything shifted.
