Before Alan could even speak, the train conductor took the initiative to introduce himself.
"Mr. Alan, good day. I'm Brandt Nicolas, conductor of Church-operated Magic Train No. 33. Please, just call me Brandt."
Brandt then gave the four travelers a quick but sharp look and added, "You can rest assured. For today's direct trip to the Kent Kingdom, this train only carries the four of you."
"Additionally, you're not the only ones onboard. Holy guardians dispatched by Church high command have already infiltrated the train's compartments. Their presence ensures your absolute safety."
"If you're still uneasy, allow me to reveal something—our esteemed Bishop Daniel is also already present."
"Even if Headmaster Stephen himself were to show up, the Church is confident in protecting your lives."
Alan remained calm, unaffected by Brandt's claims.
Francis and the others, however, were wide-eyed in shock.
