As John was sitting down he noticed three people inside the carriage. There were 2 men and 1 woman
"Umm... Hello" John said unwantedly coldly yet at the same time curiously towards them
They returned the gesture by saying hello. 'Man I hope I didn't look like a dork there...' John thought as he started analysing them.
Before him sat a pair of men who looked like they saw everything in their lives. Harsh faces, features with scars which not only were typically across eyes, but even across neck. One with a beard so thick that roots of hair probably saw light... Never, cause I can only imagine him being birthed with this face and another one had a chin so powerful that it looked like it was chiselled by renascence artists who starved to death as they finished this man. And the woman who sat nearby due to lack of space was so stunningly beautiful that he felt how his hands became wet from sweat... The eyes which were sharp and yet smooth so they could charm any man. Lips which looked like a doll which were cursed by eternal beauty and hair which were crimson red like the evening sky where the sun was her face... Her body looks straight up from cover arts of top 10 winners of multiverse models. Perfect proportions and how her hands looked delicate yet bearing a sword on her hip showed that she is not a simple lady in distress...
'OH CRAP! JOHN CALM DOWN!' John was in panic as lady before him said
"Did something get caught in my hair...?" She said in such sweet and gentle voice that John felt how his innards were burning with the stunning solar flare which was here beauty
"No... I got distracted by your sword..." John said in rush to change the theme
"Huh? So you have a great taste..." She said as she was smacking the wood nearby.
"Do you wanna get closer to look at it more carefully... And closely..." She said as seductively as possible...
'Motherf- Does she intentionally do this...' John thought as he was judging the situation.
...
'Oh, not again...' thought the man which was looking at John
'She does that again...' Bearded man was thinking while scratching his chin
Mentally he already betted with passenger near by on how fast this dude would fold under her charm
Unexpectedly for them he sat even closer as he said
"Sure. Can I see closer." John said while passengers were amused on how he didn't even bet an eye on her charm
The lady thought 'Huh? So you wanna participate in this game?' as she started getting closer while unsheating the sword a little.
"His name is Nox Insomnis, this sword was near me, always hard to protect me, no matter the day or looong nights... Do you know what his name means?" She said as she was getting closer to John's face
"What?" John said bluntly
"It means... Sleepless night..." She said as she smacked her lips while looking into my eyes...
"Cool." John said while looking at the sword...
'Man... This dude is good... He holds himself so hard... What kind of will does he have' thought the Chiseled chin man
'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!' I don't think I need to clarify who thinks that
'So you wanna play until the end?' Lady thought as she said
"What is your name?" was pronounced from her ideal lips
"Me? I am John" Do I REALLY need to clarify this time?
"Oh John... Sounds so... Smoothly... It's like playing on my tongue" You know who said as she was playing with her tongue intentionally to throw John off.
'Tch! Does she do this intentionally?!?!' John thought while preparing his counter
"What is your name?" John said bluntly
"Hmm? Oh yeah how rude of me... My name is Shinra..." She said before adding.
"For my family name tho... I will tell only you, don't mind taking it?"
'Huh in this world man takes a woman's family name? Either she is noble and only those have family names... either way' John thought as he said
"Nah. I'm good. Can you tell me more of your sword? What metals is he made out of?" John said as he looked closely at the sword
She didn't expect this answer as two watchers chuckled inside... For the first time she one was denied was hilarious ,both of them thought at the same time
Before they could continue she glared at them with stare which could calm down any kid... even 39 years old ones
"Of course John... They were fused in the dance of Iron and Adamantium... I used a lot of money for those..." She said as she thought 'If beauty doesn't work... Money will!!!'
'Huh... Adamantium? Do I need to collect orichalcum pluses for the Final weapon?' John thought as his nerd woke up
"Adamantium... How much was the proportion?" He said while checking her face for changes.
"It was used in 9:1 proportion" She said as John saw how being bulge up on her face...
"Oh cool... 9:1 in Adamantium or Iron win?" John added mockingly as he saw fury in her eyes.
"Of course in Adamantium win... I thought you could tell by the way you were focusing on it." She said already annoyed by farce which John builded
"Oh no, I was just curious, I am just a traveler, I didn't even use a sword once." John said as he saw how she was ready to blow up...
"...Do you really think-" as she was about to explode John got up
"Oh my stop is here..." John said as he jumped out of the moving carriage.
Before any of them could react Driver said "We are 1 kilometer before the City of Mandrake"
"Huh? How did he know that? He didn't look like he even knew where this carriage was going..." Chiseled man said as he saw how John was running in front of the carriage.
"Hahahaha! This is an interesting young man... Not only being immune to the Spell Charm of the Shinra but even to outpace our carriage without any use of magic... This is gonna be fun!" Said Bearded man as he was smirking like crazy
"OOOOH! I AM GONNA GET THIS SON OF A WAND!" Shinra said as she was bulging with anger
"And yet he didn't even know who we were..." The driver said while he was stroking his beard...
"I was surprised when he just accepted my lie of the wolves... Even though I long ago exiled them from this land..." The driver said as he finally showed his staff.
"This one is an interesting human... I sure hope we are gonna meet again..." before he started appearing in magic circles. Which surrounded the carriage. Before anybody could understand it poofed out of existence without any trace...
...
While this exchange happened John was running thinking 'HA! EAT THIS YOU TEASING BI- okay this is rude... Not like she gonna hear this... Who I am even thinking to?'
