Boom!!
The explosion was neither large nor did it cause much shock, but it suddenly rang out, jolting all the train cars violently.
All the passengers felt a slanted impact that made them uneasy.
Screams, panicked questions, crying and sobbing, the extreme confusion and panic about what had just happened... and a fearful anger.
All of this happened at once, causing chaos in the carriage.
And what followed and put an end to all this was a near-tangible psychic shock coming from the direction of the train's engine.
Bang!
Ian calmly glanced at a noblewoman screaming in front of him. The black-haired lady, dressed in a velvet cloak, started with her mouth open in an expression of fear, but her eyes were actually very calm. She was using her scream as a disguise, assessing her surroundings for any suspicious targets.
It was a risky decision, but if one had means of self-defense, it was an acceptable choice.
